........I'm STUPID!!
Worried about the low temperatures, I delayed introducing predators for RSM in the cus. DON'T delay!!
Took the whole (original) lot out today. Mini disaster - only 261 against 400+ usually. Shame, really, because the plants that I did not prune had reached 25 feet! But the teaching is to get them out before the mites get chilly & go to hibernate & make more trouble. But, thankfully, we sowed 4 more on 3 July & had our first pick yesterday.
Courtesy of the 8th grandchild. He knew EXACTLY what he'd done. Just before ready!!
Later - but picked 3 ripe ones today - 24 Aug.
