Shoots and leaves...
The whims and woes, highs and lows, of trying to grow fruit and veg in Nordic latitudes.
A weeding day.
I had to come in for cortisone cream having been attacked by horseflies. I was wearing a black T-shirt... So, I changed into a white, long-sleeved T-shirt and have since been left in peace. It's worth a try: I once read an article that said there had been an increase in cases of malaria in the Far East which was partly due to the current fashion trend of wearing black leggins (which attract mosquitoes). White, beige and khaki are supposed to be good colours for avoiding insect stings. Other websites maintain that wearing different colours has no effect and the white T-shirt advice is just a myth. Bit of a grey area if you ask me.
