So irresistable. Do you think the manufacturers of plastic drinks cups know some of their biggest customers are people who grow stuff, especially tomato growers...

Yes, or the hooch drips through the holes you made in the bottom of the cups

I have been using tall red drinking cups for the give-aways. Colour coding makes it easier to keep track.
I write the name and info on the side of the cup.
Very convenient.

I have to add that these drinking cups are very resilient... I've gotten 6 years out of some that are still going. There's rarely one that splits down the side, and even so as long as you can wash it, you can recycle it. Can't say the same for many other 'repurposed' plastics, which have mostly been a disappointment. But beer cups... they're built to last. :)

Tomatoes are in the ground.

Image

Eggplants and chilis are still inside, with sunbathing every day. I'm waiting for mornings to be above 10 C. Nagasaki eggplant is getting huge.

Image

First time growing peas, this is Carouby De Maussane snow pea.

Some things are are only now germinating, they were outside, and it was too cold.

All looking fantastic [mention]arnorrian[/mention] , you've done a fantastic job there. I think I have to plant out the first 16 this weekend, but there are space issues and others coming on and wanting the bigger room. I'll do the same as you with chillies and eggplants and peppers, they need a little more time in the greenhouse along with some late starting toms.
