terryd 8,043 Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Got the week off so been trying to get ontop of the weeds. Started skimming the top off my path to stop it creeping onto the plot The other side is a bit of a pain my neighbours jungle keeps coming at me. I keep taking the edge off but they wont have a plot left at this rate dug up the box hedge and paving slabs they were just hiding weeds and slugs once thats done I can do the same on the other plot so plenty to do 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

darbo 4,774 Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 i should have shaded the greenhouse when we had the really hot weather that and watering problems again in the hot weather i think have been the cause of them splitting . The black krim toms sound intresting never grown any. Hopefully i will get some decent ones yet got quite a few still on the plants. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
