Hi K,

Thanks for your reply :)

...I do have a petrol mower! And am definitely willing to have a go!

But, does it not get really hot?...if so, what sort of pipe should I use?

rgds, K

hi k its not the heat that kills them it the fumes try a good rubber pipe.

Hi again K,

Think I might have trouble finding a rubber pipe, since most are plastic here and might melt...

...but will have a look in hardware shop and see what I can find!

Will let you know how I get on.

Thanks again, K

hi again k you could always try a reinforced hose it might be alright hope every things go according to plan good luck.also googled the nicandra its a member of the nightshade family.best wishes k.x

hi again k,

am off out this morning to see what I can find!

received the nicarandra seeds and sowed them the other day...now just waiting...

...in the pictures it looks a bit like aubergine, which is also the same family...I wonder if aubergine would have the same properties??

Thanks, k
