I love laverbread used to go picking it when I was young, the smell of it cooking in the oven after cleaning it was mouth watering

Any beekeepers near you that could stand in?

I didn't think to pinch out those leaves!!!

Not brilliant with tomatoes in the greenhouse either, I grow in pots but again they are pathetic, very little fruit!!! Usually buy the plants not grow from seed, reasonable when I buy them but become weak after I've had them for a month or two, what compost do you use?

In pots, or in the ground?

To be honest I just buy a few plants at the garden centre so not sure what variety they are, should have paid more attention. I grow them in two large pots and tie them around the greenhouse as they grow. My greenhouse is in full afternoon sun and I fail most years with tomatoes as well!!!!! I...
