2022 - What I did today

Cut down JA’s to 3ft, emptied a compost bin bagging up the good stuff for later then  removed shading from my GH.

Interesting! Do you cut them down for a reason, or because they're unsightly now? I have three plants in the garden, but they're right up at the sunny fence and kind of hidden from view by my massive arch so I've not taken any notice of them, other than that they've grown very tall this summer.

Sarris and I usually cut them down to  4ft at the end of July then a second  chop in September to 6inch but it’s been very dry this year so I left them till later.  
 They’ve been droopy a few times so I’m   not sure what sort of crop I’ll get this year.
