Hi all,

Just had a new burner fitted, replaced an absolute bodge job of an open fire. I need a solution for the brickwork where the old fire hood was as this been cut away for the hood. I think this is the reason anyway, it's an early 1800's house there may have been something there before that the hood was put in to cover.

Preferably id like it bricked up to match the rest as I want to retain the original look, can this be done?

Anyone in the UK struggling with with unripe tomatoes at the moment or just me? I have 10 large plants with lots of fruits but not a single edible tomato yet this far into July.

I'm assuming it might be heatwave related? Its my first time growing anything. I was expecting to have tasted one by now. Patience is a virtue i guess!

Same for my chilli's as well! Loads of fruits but only a couple of ripe jalapenos but you eat them green anyway!

Hi all.

Can someone help me to identify what's going on with my plants? Pretty much all of them are affected. Is this disease or something I can fix? The plants are getting plenty of water and regular feeding. They're are otherwise growing well with plenty of fruits. Al says magnesium deficiency but I want to be sure before I try to fix it.

Leaf yellowing and spotting. Also a couple of plans are seeing some yellowing on the stems and branches which has appeared recently.

I'm in the UK and we've been having quite a long heatwave at the moment, could it be related?

Hi guys. My tomatoes are starting to fruit quite heavily now and I've noticed that at the end of a load of fruits it's continuing to grow like a sucker would. Should I leave these on the plant or prune after the fruits? It's an indeterminate plant. I've been concentrating on one main stem and pruning suckers as I go

Hi guys. Does my quince tree have a disease? AI says it has 'powdery mildew'

Also a lot of leaves have holes and some browning.

The tree has likely been neglected for many years before I bought my house a couple of months ago

Hi all, First time growing the king of fruits. My plants are getting pretty big now and starting to fruit and flower. I've now started to feed with tomato feed but do I need to do anything else? I was feeding before initially with some blood fish and bone in the compost mix and occasionally with a balanced plant food. Now that I've switched to tomato feed do I need to continue with any of the others or do anything else?

Found these in the garage of a house i bought. The old fella before me had a number of vintage cars. A 'Riley' 'Rudge' motorbike and a number of others.

​

The red can from what I can see seems to be a parts washer? From 'Schofield Bury' and the other is an esso fuel can?

A few of these dumped in the garden in a house i just bought. AI says concrete but family think asbestos cement!

Recently purchased and old property which came with a quince tree. The leaves look very shaggy and I don't believe it has flowered (Google tells me it should have flowered late spring?)

​

Looking for advice on what to do with it as I'd like to revive it if it needs to be!

​

I'm in the UK if that's worth mentioning, thanks!

Hi all,

​

Recently purchased and old house which came with a small dwarf (i think) apple tree of some sort. It will almost certainly have been neglected for an unknown amount of years due to the previous owners being old and in poor health.

​

My question is does it need anything to help it thrive?

​

It's already producing approx 20 fruit but all of the branches are tangled between themselves. Does it need pruning?

​

I'm in the UK and completely new to gardening, but I already love it! Appreciate the help.
