Made it down the bellarine.

It's been a few weeks since I've been down here and my heart sank when I saw all the weeding / mowing I have to do over the next few. This was never going to be an actual break. On the plus the chillies have enjoyed themselves with this weather so that's something.

Are you doing any tomatoes this season? Heard from my colleagues that theirs have exploded in size with the recent weather

Have 5 plants in and they seem pretty happy! Haven't had much luck in the last few years with tomatoes so not going to jinx it :)

Noice! I am surprised a gardener of your calibre has had bad luck with tomatoes, but then again I have managed to kill a jade plant and two potted lemons, so... here's to a bumper crop this year without too many pests!
