What a great variety for a home gardener to have just for sheer colour around the garden let alone their prolific production and great taste 😍😍😍

Today is the last day of summer, but there’s still a few more ZUCCHINI harvests to be enjoyed before we pull the plug on them and start to prepare the beds for an exciting new generation of autumn/winter crop 😍

Dear Mr/Mrs Possum, did you enjoy your Mortgage Lifter tomato? I bet you did!
.
This is the first time possums have attacked our TOMATOES
.
Apart from insects, we’d love to hear from you what animals attack your garden from all around the globe 🌍

This is what happens when you plant EGGPLANTS in a cornered shady location that receives not much more than 3 hours of direct sunlight a day:
.
photosynthesis is poor. Inadequate sunlight = poor and slow growth
.
Poor and slow growth = weak plant
.
Weak plant = vulnerable to disease, pests and poor leaf growth
.
poor leaf growth = reduced chlorophyll
.
Reduced chlorophyll = lack of fuel (protein & sugars)
.
Lack of fuel = slow stunted growth
.
Slow stunted growth = delayed flowering
.
And when an eggplant finally grows it’s almost as tall as the plant!
.
It’s interesting growing EGGPLANT in the shade but you can make it work. Although our plants are barely between 15 cm and 30 cm tall, there are buds forming so we need to be patient. This time last year the same EGGPLANTS were growing in full sun and we were getting huge harvests. What a difference 😍
