We have been inundated with excellent questions, here are some of the topics discussed this month:

• Passionfruit hoppers can be controlled by weekly spraying of ECO Neem and Eco Oil
• Frangipane with woolly aphid. Keith suggests controlling with Pyrethrum (add a drop or two of dishwashing liquid)

• Deter possums from eating your passion fruits by providing a decoy apple!
• Some basic principles on pH testing and correction
• Pomegranate trees - best to have 2 plants of different varieties will increase the yield through cross-pollination
