Best taken indoors, but try dusting with derris or flower of sulphur, wrap in bundles and bury in a trench. Or, take cuttings to over-winter indoors. Cut plant back in spring when frosts are over. Small white creatures in multi-purpose compost: These are spring tails. Though not insects, they are related to them. Waterlogged conditions attract them, so do not let compost get too wet. Not a great threat to plants.  Next Page Radio GulfIndex TV/Radio

Stop watering plants while in flower. Resume watering and feeding after they are over or have been cut, until the leaves die down naturally. ■ Feed rhubarb with blood, fish and bone, then add well-rotted farmyard manure. Put an upturned bucket over one root to encourage an early supply.  Next Page Radio GulfIndex TV/Radio
