Описание: Join our FAB Pateron Page:   / tonycsmith  


Our conversation covers all sorts: updates on how everyone is doing and their experiences with their gardens and allotments.

JB expresses feeling tired and not fully engaged with his allotment, while Jessie shares her recent excitement and energy for her garden.

Audrey discusses her successful garlic harvest and her tomato plants.

We discusses aphid control on brassicas and the challenges of dealing with pests, as well as the issue of white rot affecting garlic and shallots.

Consider moving ladybirds into enclosed spaces like greenhouses to control pests

Ladybird larvae are more voracious eaters than adults

Different varieties of aubergines have different shapes and flavours

Corking is a natural phenomenon in chili peppers

Starting plants early can lead to better growth

Growing conditions can greatly impact plant growth

Growing fewer chili plants can be more manageable

Volunteer potatoes can produce surprisingly large and tasty tubers

Milder chili varieties are great for adding flavor without excessive heat Choosing the right pot size and soil mix can greatly impact the growth and health of chili plants.

The decline in butterfly populations is a concern and may be attributed to various factors, such as changes in habitat and climate.

Different methods, such as using peppermint oil or lime poo, can be employed to deter foxes from gardens and allotments.

Regular updates and sharing experiences with fellow gardeners can provide motivation and inspiration for gardening projects.
