Afraid I don't have a posh termometer like yours.

But this is the temperature inside my greenhouse at 4.30....

Posh? Just a cheapo from Wilkinsons, Gary.

My pic was taken about the same time as yours, but was in the shade on my patio...the greenhouse (like yours) over a hundred about the same time.

It's gone quite heavy & thundery over the past hour.

Phew!

We could do with some rain.

Mystic Meg - can you tell us all how long this will last? Is it a typically British few days' worth, or will we have a summer fit for a Jubilee, Olympics etc?

SV - If me and me piece of seaweed were privy to any inside information, would I spoil any of this present joy?

Clematis 'Bijou'

I take your point, Frank, though I rather fancy most of us are growing something or other that has been modified in some way.

I like traditional sweet peas, but have no problem with basket varieties.

Thanks for the link, marshmello.....I'm impressed.

See! Didn't I say last week?  

Clematis 'Bijou'

For any clematis lovers nout there, I wonder if you've seen the variety 'Bijou'. A very pretty flower and at just 12 inches high, it's ideally suited to growing in pots.

After a dull start, absolutely gorgeous here in the Midlands!  

tomatoes-growbags or not growbags?

Can anybody tell me whether it is a better idea to grow tomatoes outside in a growbag or, can the crop be just as good, if you grow directly into the ground.

There is another alternative, that is to use 'tomato planters'. These are the same as growbags, except they have about twice the amount of compost.

The problem is they cost more than the traditional growbag, although you may see them as a bargain sometimes...I bought mine yesterday from a garden centre who were offering them as 'buy one get one free' deal.

Also it helps to plant your plants in bottomless pots (as seen on the home-page) and place them on the growbag.
