Gardener's world of twist

[hirez]

You know the unexpected strawberry patch that I mentioned was fruiting like a bastard a month ago? The one emitting tiny strawberries of remarkable flavour.

It's still at it, only more so. They remain tiny, but now they come in 'extra sweet' and 'unexpected clover harmonics' flavours as well.

Those of you threatening to come round and thieve handfuls have missed a right trick, I can tell you.

I'll be on the next plane out.

We stumbled upon a magical approach to nice strawberries: coffee grounds. We dumped all the coffee grounds on their patch of ground and they grew like bloody triffids. The slugs and snails can't abide 'em - apparently they're caffeinated enough that the bugs in general take one nibble and go "um, no."
