Don't forget Garden_Serf, Physalis is NOT an annual; the plants will grow again in the spring from last years roots, after you cut out the dead stems.

I planted Centurion sets last year and most of them were over a Pound and a half each.

Incidentaly, I grew some Physalis (Cape Gooseberry / Chinese Lanterns) In the Greenhouse and outside, and we made 4 jars of Marmalade from them. Very nice too.

I have't used it yet, after all, Mares Tail doesn't grow in winter.

At the end of February, I usually pick out the flower buds and deposit them in a big bin of water where the rot down, but it doesn't stop other plot holders flowers blooming and blowing more spores about.

I always plant Desiree as they seem to be slug free. When making the trench I lay shredded paper/newspaper in the bottom and I thing the slimmys don't like ink, with a shaking of growmore to help. The keep us going through to March, so are good storer in the garage. and I then store some for plantin...

I have loads of the stuff, spraying with Glyphosate helps a little but next year I am trying RootOut from Dax products. It was mentioned in KG lately and bought a big box for £25.00.

Will report if it helps better than the Glyph.
