Hole in the clouds Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Look real good! Is that extra wide copper tape? Where did you get that from? It looks twice the width of my stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks twice the width of my stuff. Yeah it's really useful stuff (certainly stops the slugs). It's from Amazon, if you search for "wide copper tape", there's loads of results. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latitude54 Posted May 6, 2023 Author Share Posted May 6, 2023 6th May: The lemon Cakes have been topped this afternoon. I’m yet to top the Pink Cherry Pies but that was mainly due to me not being able to crouch / squat down to plant height for more than a few seconds without my legs giving up on me. I’m going to pop back out to the poly tunnel shortly to finish the job. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latitude54 Posted May 9, 2023 Author Share Posted May 9, 2023 9th May: Bit more of a concise update today.. The girls have really taken off! All 4 plants have responded really well to topping and are filling out nicely. I think the Lemon Cake's are going to be BIG girls! The pics don't really show how big they're getting. But when you consider those are 30L pots,.. it kind of makes sense. I'm definitely going to be short on space soon!! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MindSoup Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Happy looking ladies geez. Summer's definitely taking its time this year, but hopefully it's here to stay now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluePeter Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Wont be able to move in there in a few months pal Not a bad thing though. Just keep the airflow up during flower to help keep rot down looking great so far 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latitude54 Posted May 22, 2023 Author Share Posted May 22, 2023 22nd May: The poly tunnel is getting quite full!! Fortunately, I'm able to take the girls out during the day to get lots of fresh air and sunshine then pop them away at night (or when it rains). Proper update coming tomorrow but for now this is the state of play (notice the addition of a chair so I can hide away from the wife and kids): 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It started off really pathetic and deformed bit has gone bonkers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindSoup Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 (edited) Yeah sometimes the runts end up being the best plants, weird how that happens. My mates got a really weird auto tangie in his garden. The cotyledon leaves are about 2 inches long and nothing else is growing from it all, it's about 3 weeks old now so starting to lose hope that it will turn things around.

murphyblue Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 (edited) Dunno if its relevant as u are moving them in and out but it would be easier laying plants out in a u-shape around the outside and a walk way in the middle.

latitude54 Posted May 23, 2023 Author Share Posted May 23, 2023 @murphyblue once the little seedlings are off the makeshift table I think I may well have to do that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latitude54 Posted May 27, 2023 Author Share Posted May 27, 2023 Sadly my outdoor season has come to a very sudden end. I went to check on the greenhouse at midnight last night only to find someone has been in and ripped all but 3 plants. 11 plants gone. Some in pots, some ripped from their pots. Gutted doesn’t come close to how I feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
