Wow! Impressive! Are you a commercial grower Penny, or just a tomato and pepper enthusiast? I've often thought about specialising in a...
This thread seems appropriate for another question I have by the way - Strawberry propagation. I have runners pegged down as we speak. Now, I've...
I've always believed you are over the hill at 33, Claire. Well, I've believed that for a year anyway. Next year I might revise it upward to 34...
Is there a particular type of plant that it will work better on, Alice? Your name reminds me, by the way, that I learned and was inspired to do...
