Squeaky clean?

Shame you can't see the smoke, but I left it too late in the day.

But I had to say that, after the sulphur, we can get sowing.

Hi all, pardon my ignorance

Is sulphur like a smoke bomb insecticide thingy ?

Well, no ones been smoking in mine, but it has had a really good wash out with a couple of buckets of soapy water and it is glinting in the sunshine!  ;D

Cleared everything out of the GH and sprayed it with Armillatox yesterday. Not my favourite job :-\

Firing up the propagators next w.e.

If everything is in a propagator with a lid, do I need the anti-frost heater (I've set it to cut in at about 5degC) on as well, or can it wait until I start potting on?

Kills? Everything on the surface!

Bomb? Yes.
