Disappearing Post

Sometimes things just do not work out. On Friday I went to the Club but unfortunately
I again did not win a prize,so I decided to write
something about the Garden,but as I was about to
plublish it, I lost the internet connection,so that
was it! No post. So I will try again tonight.
In this photo,you can see that
some of the new growth leaves on this young orange tree,
have been damaged, they are
somewhat distorted and have
other markings, that are typical
of damaged caused by the LeafMiner.
I treated this one and other citrus
trees,with Pest Oil,mixed with water,
and then spray on to the leaves of the effected plants, every two weeks, or so whilst the condition is present.
Luckely, the oranges have not been effected.



Here I have a couple of pictures (taken on different dates)

of a "Turkish Pumpkin"




The bottom one, was taken just after it was cut from the vine
