Hiya, thanks for replying. I've come to the conclusion that it's some form of fungus, probably due to the high wood content in the compost. I've re-potted and cleaned them all now, so hope for the best. Bill +-------------------------------------------------------------------+…

Hiya, I have just planted out some strawberries and tomato seedlings in an organic peat free compost. Over the last couple of days I have noticed these small (1 - 3 mm) yellow egg like objects have appeared on and just below the surface.


Does anyone have any idea what they might be ?



Thanks in advance,



Bill
