This is the second year of my trialling of this method of combatting white rot in alliums, and another resounding success for the method. Previously, I used to loose about 30% of my allium crops to white rot. I have just lifted the last of my alliums this year and only one garlic head showed any sign of white rot. There is still time this year for you to treat the beds that you intend to use for growing alliums next year , with ground up garlic cloves. For the method, see this page http://www.growyourown

Yes, even in Glasgow, my Pluot has started flowering. There is no sign of insect life yet, so I will have to resort to hand pollination. No sign of any other plums flowering either. Does anyone else have a pluot in flower now?

Loganberries fruit on last year's growth so do not prune them at this time, only after they have fruited. You will need to provide support to the fruiting growth to keep them off the ground. They are often grown up to wires and then horizontally along the wires, or even in circles around netting as in the photos on this page :- http://www.growyourown.info/page81.html
