Strawberries: Disappointing, down by a half. Cropping really well but I suspect that's because I'm growing them in tower contraptions rather than on the ground so they don't get waterlogged and have plenty of air around them. Raspberries are cropping really well too. Slugs: bumper crop! Lost a couple of dahlias but generally not a problem thanks to hedgehogs, toads, frogs, nematodes and a nightly foray with a bucket of salt water. Anybody else experiencing similar? mark Cheers, Jake ======================================= Urgling from the East End of Swansea Bay where sometimes it's raining and sometimes it's not. |
