How true, that pretty much sums up life.RoyJay wrote: ↑Sat Aug 13, 2022 6:35 amJust like trading, it takes time, patience and effort, and even then you still need a small slice of luck on your side too. Though it looks like you are getting there, Derek27, they look nice and healthy. Those sungolds pictured above look really good too.
As you well know, in the cut throat world of sports trading, there are NO FREE LUNCHES.
When trying to grow your own free lunch, there are also, NO FREE LUNCHES!
Anyone growing tomatoes? (The Gardening thread)
Bit of a damper to end today, with high-altitude cloud filtering out my sunshine.
On the plus side, for those who don't like the heat, one or two more hot but partially cloudy days and much needed rain on Tuesday, where I am. I've dug holes into my lawn, I'm gonna give it a good watering tonight to ensure it's not too dry and water resistant when the rain arrives.

And they say there's no such thing as a free lunch. The stress involved in getting that tomato has wiped about 3yrs from Derek's life expectancy so maybe that's the price

Aphid attack on my chillis, mainly the tips near the glass. That explains the recent ant invasion I'll just sacrifice those branches and cheer for Team Ant.

A farmer reports his 5-acre greenhouse full of watercress is costing £800,000 a month to heat! Next year many UK farmers won't be growing tomatoes and the imported ones will cost £5,000 each, they'll be so valuable that each tomato will be individually transported by boat in case a boat sinks!
That's my trading bank for next year sortedDerek27 wrote: ↑Wed Aug 31, 2022 2:27 pmA farmer reports his 5-acre greenhouse full of watercress is costing £800,000 a month to heat!

Google's saying this is a Devil's Snare. After flattening the garden this year I'm getting weeds I've never seen before.
