I've been fighting some ants in my house, but thankfully not in the garden. I'm thinking being hydro might help that. I did however go down to my veg room last night to find about 9 house flys! I was pissed, and tried to kill them without hitting the plants but sadly they were to fast in such a tight space. So today I'm hanging a whole pack of fly strips :).

Good luck with the fly strips, Thundercat. Over summer we are perpetually annoyed by fruit flies in the house. You cannot have a bit of fruit without one of the fukkers appearing, and then if there's one, there will be a whole posse of em.Like Grannies round a bus!:)

Interesting, seeing as we use the word Peach to describe something rather good, e.g at the World Cup one might say, "that was a peach of a goal RVP just scored!" What would we say to describe the perfect Peach? I guess Peachy is the word:) A peachy Peach.........

Some pics from today. Cauli's are flowering:) tomatoes are going boss, although I think I locked out a bit or something with the dole rosses. Beek steak, celebriy, and better boys are all coming along nicely, no fruit yet though. MY red peppers have a couple of flowers showing as well but I forgot to take pics. Here's some pictures

Your gardens are looking good.

The beefsteaks are starting to flower, so fruit is not far behind.

I see the problem with the dolce rosse, but I don't have a solution at this time. Time for some research.
edit
There are three reasons why rust spots occurs in your tomato plants, these are excess of humidity, warmth or moisture that have plagued the plant.

:peace:

Well it was over 30c here on a few days in the greenhouse, but I am not sure its that. They got some N and PK added but not what I would class in excessive doses...but stumped. Some of the new flowers have sizzled up, it's been getting mighty warm out there on the roof.

I'd say go and check out the new riu thread with problems and questions, SupaM but even though it's a sticky, Admin hasn't been on there in an age. I guess they got their first advertising revenues through and thought, who gives a rats arse about userability, and people years of photographs...bunch of absolute "sukkels".

hahah yeah, i'm just keeping the seeds out the Snapdragons/Lupins and stuff but i've got no chance getting the honeysuckle out now. it's blooming this year, smells great, but is intertwined with trellis to the max.

That is how I started mine. Had a contract job and the place was covered with honeysuckle. Took a cutting and brought it home. It just keeps getting bigger!

We brought our grapes, roses, lilacs, and calla lilies from the old house.

I remember moving when we were in Scotland and we took two Apple Trees with us, Massive connifers, and tonnes of strawberries. Those where the best strawbs ever, we got cuttings from my Great Gran in Wales, just delicious, the smell of my Mum making jam is one to remember for sure.
