Ouch. That must hurt. Sorry for your loss! You are right - I've learnt loads - even cutting the dead bits out was instructive.

The roots of both Bill and Ben were very similar: The top two to three inches of coco fell away immediately upon removing from the pot. I think I was expecting more roots. Didn't smell bad though. Once the coco had been shaken off, there wasn't many roots left at all. My suspicion is the...

Oops. Been a little lax in updating this journal. Mainly because I haven't had any good news to share. The weather has continued to be unsettled - each grey and damp day encouraging mould growth. It became apparant that Bill (the auto critical orange punch) was unlikely to survive and was...

Yep, sounds similar. Then murky days when it's not raining with no light and and 85% humidity... and then a few sunny spells just to tease you with what could have been... 🎶 always look on the bright side of life 🎶 ...but I have a cunning plan to beat the weather in the future. This plan...

@Greenvein thanks for your commiserations! I think I'd definitely recommend a little greenhouse for your cousin after this experience! All is not lost though, still have two plants left: Bill, who's had quite a few bits chopped off in an attempt to stop the rot The Duck - I've chopped the...
