I finished my Pimms about half an hour ago - glass of chilled white soon
No Borage for me though, as I haven't got any this year. Cucumber, lemon and mint though, yum!
Aah, don't you just love summer....

Reply to Heated mat for Tom's and chilliesI use a mix of six scoops of compost three scoops of sand/grit and two scoops of perlite,the quantity is unimportant as long as the ratio is the same, if for seeds I use this mix, if I am potting on I add some blood, fish and bone, along with a small quantity of chicken manure pellets
