about mulching the vine do you have it heavily mulched?



No Mulch at all.



Jonno! Shame on you! This is the first thing you should have done
if you noticed it looking sick!

Your passionfruit is getting its roots alternatively baked and
watered, baked and watered.

Just a couple of days ago you mentioned to someone that their plants
probably died from the heat after repotting.

Mulch the poor thing and see if a nice even temperature ground with an
even water supply will do it any good.


Its in the shade (the root system)and there isnt enough mulch to go
around at the moment.
It gets a whole heap of rain and while the restrictions are on havent
checked it as much as I should've.
There is only so much time to water.......
Will get around to it when I finally get back to work.
Anyone want a bus driver with a medium rigid in Melbourne?
(For those people who might misconstrue the above, it is a licence to
drive a truck which is classed as a meduim rigid vehicle. No need for
viagra)
