OK someone had to mention it!

A Paul Robeson tom starting to turn. Would have been nice to watch the final while feasting on him and quaffing Malbec. I guess it's just the Malbec then.

I see you have used twine to support the tomato plant. when I used that sort of twine once, on quite a few plants it snapped and I had to retrieve them as best I could. Does anyone use a non plastic twine (environmentally friendly) that is strong enough and doesn't rot for long enough?

I use a twine I got on the garden centre I think they called it jute or something like that, but I can’t see it lasting anymore than a season or two. Unlike the butchers twine I used to use, it is great. They use it for tying meat, no plastic in it.
