Consigned to the gibbering, blasphemous outer darkness
Still alive, but snowed under with werk (and counting the days till Summer Camp at the Bank Holiday).
I've just disposed of the enblighted upside down tomato plant, which was an arse as it was the only one showing signs of ripening, The other two (in a grobag) appear fine thus far, if green; if they succumb too, we'll likely be digging out green tomato recipes.
Whether the compost I put in the gravity inverter was infested with spores, the variety of tomato was particularly susceptible, or it just didn't like growing in the wrong direction, I don't suppose we'll ever know.
Post tomato destruction, I've just indulged in some therapeutically savage pruning of the Virginia creeper, which made me feel a bit better at least; all this after hitting brick wall this afternoon and having to collapse in a near comatose way on the bed for a while. Too Much Stress.
