And, the second problem is, will the virus, or whatever it was, stay
in the
soil and affect next years plants?

I'm going to take the plants down to the tip rather than put them on
the
compost heap.

Hi Alan,

I asked a similar question a few months ago, i.e. How do you sterilize
the soil in a greenhouse?

I know that it should be replaced every three years, but is there a
foolproof method of sterilizing it??


I believe it can be sterilised in a microwave, but it could take a long time
if you have a lot of it.

Alan


Regards

Drew
