What's your weather like 2026
It seems to be clouding over now but been sunny all morning. Did a bit of pruning then sat in the corner in the sun for 15 minutes, felt reasonable as there is no wind. 9c in the shade.

I bought a bag of clover and 2 bags of pure peat online in the end. It's delivery that adds up on a price. It would've been so much easier to pop in GC, would get more for the same price. And delivery itself looks to be not that quick for bulk items. Looking forward to get my orders.
