Can everyone who has bought and paid for Spennithorne Mabel for this season please contact via my other personal FB page....Jay Gregory.....so that I can cross check orders with payments via Paypal. I don't use this page much anymore, since my page went down a few weeks back, and it managed to scramble all of my messages and contacts from some months ago. All of my orders were left in my messages inbox for later fulfilling, but now those messages appear to have been tampered with since this page went down, it's become impossible for me to do much in my inbox. So, if anyone has ordered Spennithorne Mabel for this season, and paid for them, can they please pm me, but not on this page, but on my personal page.....Jay Gregory.....and I can start to get some orders out for S. Mabel this next week for you. Many thanks.

Unboxing video of new propagating medium. In the light of the peat ban hitting the UK at the end of 2024, I thought preparing and trying some new methods/materials was a worthwhile exercise. Any questions, just gimme a shout.

Incredibly late to the party, that the band has packed up and gone home....however slightly clocked faced, I'm seeing enough potential in R Kris to try again with more care and attention next season. Full sized Medium Dec , 8.25in, and as mentioned with more care and refining, I certainly see some potential in this.....

With the onset rapidly approaching of the peat based composts ban, and with very little in the way of testing having been done that I know of in respect of propagation media and methods that will have to be adopted for taking cuttings after the end of 2024, I thought it may be about time that some new trialling was done.

I had heard that some peat free composts were not entirely successful in respect of taking dahlia cuttings and rooting success rates were, shall we say, not especially encouraging. So, whilst I respect that the full blown Nursery owners can continue to use Peat based composts to take their cuttings right up until 2030, giving them another 7 years for the compost manufacturers to dial in their products and find a suitable equivalent to peat based composts for taking cuttings. Unfortunately, anyone who isn't a Nursery will not have that luxury and will have to change over to alternative products from the end of 2024.

To which end, I have decided to trial an alternative product for rooting cuttings for 2024. The product is from an Internationally renowned company and is an exciting opportunity for me to trial their products.

As soon as my samples arrive, then I will be posting more about the product, and updates will follow, so I'll be pleased to answer any questions and act as an intermediary if any grower is interested and would like to purchase going into the new propagating season.

Keep 'em peeled on my page for updates........
