Yes do that Dave ,i would be very interested,mine will probably come to nothing but will have to wait and see ,good luck with yours.

 

Hi David22, it could be that the one is growing blind, that is, the growing tip has not developed properly. Leave it and see what happens. David.

 

hi david

sorry it took so long for me to get back to you but i am a complete novice on the P C so had to get my daughter down to show me how toget back on this page.
thanks for the advice, i think you were right they are starting to move.
thanks again
dave

HI BLUE HOPE YOU HAVE A BUMPER CROP I'M DEFINATLY GOING TI TRY YOUR TIP WITH SUGER

 

Blue & David, My fella swears and hurls abuse at plants of his that don't grow, he's adamant it works :eek:

 

well as you know from posts i'v tried talking-singing and whistling so mayby i'l try shouting abuse if nothing else it will be fun and give the locals something to talk about

 

beki the locals already think i'm crazy this will only confirm it

 

Dave i am also going to try putting the sugar on the tips ,he swears by it.I can hear you shouting abuse at your plants from here! just tell the neighbours you have got vegetable growing tourettes!
