really jealous I have 1 green tom the size of a pea

Lovely! I am a few weeks of that I think.
Can I ask what the pots are made of/ covered with Tim?

This might give you a bit of information BarriedaleNick :)

Hole in one!

Tim, how have you liked those pots or is this your first year using that type pot? I've not seen them before but have heard of people cutting slits in plastic pots.

First year - so far, so good.

Will report.

They look super Tim - Beechgrove Garden did a trial of these last year - their findings are in the fact sheet -

Mm Interesting - Do report back TIm!!  ;D

Not a happy outlook.

Money wasted?

You are a lot further south Tim - and you are growing other plants than courgettes - so I am going to wait til I hear your results before I decide on buying some for next year.

Tim ....what size Air Pot did you use for your Tomatoes?

Duke :)

Heck mine are still in flower :( cant get much further south than me but they are all outside this year as i am sorting out my greenhouses so i can't complain.

 Soory, Duke - missed that.

10l . 14l for the Cues.

just wondering how everyone's tomatoes are doing,  mine are very poor this year,  though i planted late so have to be patient i guess. (i have literally had 1 tomato thus far. haaha
:o ;D

Loads of green babies on mine now and cucumbers are nearly ready to pick !!! all are outside this year and doing so much better than in the greenhouse !!
