A warm welcome, Oh Fooxxy one ! You may want to consider opening up a thread in the Gardeners Clinic area, or possibly even in the Greenhouse area. (there is already a similar thread by a person called erani there ). Alternatively, I already started a post here , which you could extend ? And don't forget to say hello to the Owls ! |
