My grandad always grew moneymaker I used to try but always seemed to start getting the blight ?
I always pinched off the little shoots that grew from inbetween the stem /stalk and branch .
No wages ain’t great tbh after 38.5 hours it’s overtime rate but got to do it while it’s available as I went from about October /November to around march with out any .I get paid on the 25th , last pay packet I had 60 hours overtime in it. This pay be lucky to have half of that as I’ve had last week off on holiday and I’m off next Thursday to Monday as going to Bridlington for Race the Waves beach racing .
