Comment by Donna on October 28, 2012 at 7:33pm Hi all
I have LOADS of jeruselum artichoke tubers to give away - FREE to anyone who wants any!! Please take some - please take lots! I grew too many last year, got sick of them part way through winter, and now the ones left in the ground are sprouting madly!
I am in Waipawa, but can arrange for them to be picked up from Napier or Hastings as well :)

Thanks!

Hi everyone. I am looking for some help please. IN my last place, I didn't have lawns to speak of, so my lawnmower was dormant for nearly 4 years. It was well covered and kept dry. Since moving to Waipukurau earlier this year, I have cleaned the mower, cleaned the spark plug, re-oiled and re-fuelled, but sadly I cannot get it started. The last time it was used, it went absolutely fine. I think it possibly is in need of a service, but unfortunately, I cannot afford that. Is there anyone who may be able to help me please? My lawns are desperate!
I sure agree Richard - the way everything has grown with all the rain, but not a lot of joy with peppers and chilli this year.... they are there but not growing much , thought i might put them into my small green house , do you think they will come to anything now?? Or should i just discard them?? The ones that have done best are the left overs from last year...strange!
