I'm just soaking up every bit of this weather, so much delightful sun and warmth without any of that blasted humidity!
Most of my plants are doing well thanks to a friend's periodic watering, although my floors were dirty because she wore her shoes indoors :c small price to pay for keeping my plants going this long. Some things are a bit crispy but not excessively so. I'll need to do some tidying up later thsi week. It's also time for me to heavily prune the big curry leaf plant again as all the leaves are at the ends and it's looking leggy. At least they're mature enough to use - I might keep the harvest in the freezer. Or make a nice healthy herbal rice porridge...
Good luck with your coriander seeds. My entire balcony is no longer suited to the picky bastards until April next year probably.
I'm glad your plants are doing well. I don't think anywhere is particularly suited to coriander over our blazing hot summers. I'm hoping this patch will give me decent growth over spring/early summer as it is quite cool & damp. I'm not sure it will get enough sun over winter there though, I may need a second winter patch.
