    hi,useful forum and uk too,wonderful.

    am the perpetial noob gardener,always something new and currently exploring indoor gardening.
    have got myself a large zip up tent thing,various fans,lights etc and have been growing peppers and oriental tomatoes etc quite sucessfully up to now in both soil and a small hydroponic thing.
    i also have an aeroponic bucket mist making thing which i use for germination>seedling>repotting.

    being rather ancient and having moved to a residential "park" obviously i have no workable garden of any size worth trying nor indeed the weather to support my interest in foreign climate plants

    have just now started "custard apples" from thailand,and will be tootling along to a relative section next to ask a question or two regarding those.
    hopefully someone will have tried to grow these before. :)

      thanks for greetings lads n lasses.

      ive put the custard apple on back burner for now,its alive,i think :scratch:, but hasnt changed in a month,frozen in time by looks of things and the more i find out about them leads me to believe its a veeeery slooow growing plant.
      so itll sit somewhere quiet ,getting dampened now and again and i have a feeling ill be dead n buried long before it makes it beyond a seedling. :smile:

      So now back on with my chinese pear tomatoes which are going great guns,lots of flowers and growth.
      my peppers,again some exotic collection bought cheaply off the bay of fleas when i was bored and needed shopping therapy,are also flowering like mad and are looking very well,they certainly like growing in the tent under the led lamps and are drinking gallons of feed which is a great sign.

      cheers.
