hi Chili. Corriander is very easy to upset. If it is not given enough water it bolts i.e starts to produce the seeds early { defence mechanism } not enough water it wilts and dies. The trick is little water but often {even in cold weather }. Methy is exactly the same. At the moment i'm finishing off repairs to my 2 greenhouses { 1 x 25ft - 1 x16ft } ready for next year's crops of toms, sweet pepper, chili's, cucumber. Never tried Aubergines yet though. Please feel free for any advice or seeds for yourself or other members. Cheer's Paul

Lets Talk Curry / Re: Why do we do it?
November 14, 2006, 08:14 AMIn reply to the open question of why I chose to add mushroom to my bhaji, the answer is simply I love to experiment and tried just 1 bhaji to see how it would taste with mushroom, and I have to admit I carried on to make a batch. {If we did'nt experiment we would never gain knowlege } I think that might of been one of the Dark Lords Quotes LoL
Could it be that I am starting to be in fluenced by the dark side
. May the shwartz be with you all. Regards Paul

Lets Talk Curry / Growing Your Own
November 14, 2006, 07:22 AMHi Gang, just out of pure interest, is there anyone out there apart from myself who grows their own veg. I've been a proud allotment holder for some years now and grown my own own onions, garlic, ginger, herbs inc coriander, methi, potatoe's, spinach, carrots, leeks. As well as the general house vegtables for Sunday Lunch etc. I get enormous satisfaction from not only growing these morsels from start, but I must admit it does taste better than I could buy. Although my coriander is going berserk at the moment and covers 10 square metres of my plot alone. Cheer's Paul
