We used to call them "double G's" when I was a kid... Wish I had a dollar for every time I had to patch the tyres on my bike from running those buggers over, I'd have enough coin for the biggest AP system in the land! :smile:

Just catching up on posts and have only had a quick skim so far but it's looking great mate, have fun washing the gravel mate, at least the weather is going to be a bit cooler this week due to the cyclone up north...

OT - I'm a beer/bourbon drinker usually but I'm partial to the odd Bombay Sapphire & tonic (with a slice of lime of course).

I can say that washing gravel WITHOUT gin is much less fun. That could be the differance right there between bathtub gin and growbed gin :)

Lookin good!

if it's this, apparently they're pretty good at eating tomato plants, and pupate in soil...but can be controlled with oarasitic wasps.

I've been pulling out around 5-10 caterpillars a day off of my plants (and theres always more that I miss). I hate the bloody things but they make good fish food...

Sorry for the hijack but is dipel safe to use in AP systems?
