I tried to tell him mate, he's not having it.

Imagine if they made weed legal. Sucky would still be hydroponing his own in the attic <doh>
Course i would, if it was legal to grow id just undercut the shops.
 
What ya got in there?

Explain this cage? Why a cage?

It’s a big walk in metal framed cage, covered in wire mesh. You plant all your fruit in it, and it stops birds eating it.

Mines full of strawberry, raspberry and black currant. Started it with a handful of plants and it’s now completely full as they’ve spread. It’s boss. <ok>

Can you post a pic of it? Sounds cool.
 
So inspected the estate with the gardener this weekend and found I have two papaya trees, two honey pineapple plants, spinach, lemongrass, lemon basil, plus ginger all growing in a space that was previously occupied by my front lawn.
Oldest papaya tree is about a year and half old and is already about 4m tall and producing edible fruit. Apparently they produce fruit continuously so waiting for next crop to come through. Picked some spinach for my juice and they are cooking me a fish dish with lemon basil for tonight.
