I forgot to mention how impressive that is. Well done Addy.
Mine never ended up showing any heads, and I put it down to growing them at the wrong time of year... I've very limited experience, but it was quite heart breaking. Since researching this, I am of the understanding that caulis can only be sown for a…
What's the hype with these strange fruit? I just recently cut down a decent sized tree because the fruit were... *disgusting*. Have you tried them?
Thanks for this Donna!
I'll second that - well done.
That looks pro. Can you please tell me how you did this? I tried earlier in the year, to grow potatoes in hessian sacks, but failed miserably. They rotted so badly that in the end, that there was nothing left of the seed potatoes, what so ever!
Hi Scarlett, how do you manage to get them ripening one at a time? I'm trying to do mine hand by hand, by picking them one (hand) at a time this time around. Hopefully it'll work!
Lotte, was looking up Bill Mollison's nutrient deficiency key again -oh the things i've forgotten these days :(
He mentions that if plants are brittle, leaves die or are distorted, growing points die, stems cracked, rough, short between leaves, spli…
Cassandra, you're more than welcome to come and grab a cutting, but like Donna said, I think they need to be grafted onto a specific root stock, otherwise they won't perform true to type or something like that. Feel free to come and get some limes i…

- Hi lotte,
My friends go more than I do. Saturday might be good. my girlfriends, Polly and Doahn are usually up for a little mountian biking on the weekend. I usually go with my dog. I'm just begining but keen to make it a weekly outing. I share a car and my partner is going to the coast to ride this weekend. I'll let you know about this tomorrow or later tonight. my numbewr is 0402778170. feel free to give me a call anytime if you want to go out. would be great to have another girl among us.

- Lotte you have a beautiful garden - everything seems to grow so well. You must take good care of it. I did the same thing with my tomatoes (not pinching out side shoots) but they have still fruited amazingly. The best part is I don't even like tomatoes! I turn them into puree for sauces instead. Unfortunately my passionfruit hasn't given me any fruit yet despite flowering many times.
