Rosella (also Queensland Jam Plant, Roselle) 28 Aug, Jude D (Australia - sub-tropical climate)
Unless you want the fruit whole just tear the leaves off then the bud is easy. A lot quicker and easier on the fingers. Also due to arthritis in my hands I don't have the strength to push them through any more.

Celery 27 Aug, Emmanuel (South Africa - Semi-arid climate)
Can I grow celery in the same bed with green beans?

Celery 17 Mar, Bee-Pie (South Africa - Summer rainfall climate)
Yes. Celery requires high amounts of nitrogen & beans fix nitrogen in the soil pulling it from the air.

Silverbeet (also Swiss Chard or Mangold) 25 Aug, Robert (Australia - temperate climate)
I love to grow silver beet but earwigs attack so badly despite surface spray around the area or rolled up newspaper. I tried growing in flower pots but the result has been very small growth. What next do you suggest , thank you,

Choko/Chayote (also Chayote squash, christophene, chouchou, mirliton) 20 Aug, Latha (Australia - sub-tropical climate)
I am confused about how to get the chokos to sprout. Should I leave it on a warm sunny spot, like window still, or put them in a dark spot like deep burried in my kitchen pantry?. Please answer as different websites and videos give different information. Many thanks.

Choko/Chayote (also Chayote squash, christophene, chouchou, mirliton) 29 Nov, Andrew (Australia - temperate climate)
Chokos are a warm temperate to tropical plant, they could probably be grown in colder climates in a green house. Once they get going they might be alright outside on cool climates, warmth and some moisture is good to get them going!.

Choko/Chayote (also Chayote squash, christophene, chouchou, mirliton) 21 Aug, Louis (Australia - temperate climate)
I just plant in the garden and it shoots when it wants. Bury an inch or just push the top into the soil a little.

Could be over watering or botrytis rot. Are they showing any sign of mold?

Cauliflower 19 Aug, JulieSmart (South Africa - Summer rainfall climate)
My cauliflowers have grown beautifully all through winter with big leaves. The heads formed and while they were still quite small, the individual stalks on the florets became elongated. Did I leave them too long before harvesting or was it due to the increase of sun on the veg patch?

You should grow white mustard if your planning to make the condiment. Other varieties are grown more for leaf.
