GARDENINGTHE gardening year traditionally begins with a spring clean and Jeyes Fluid is one of those most atmospheric, memory-jogging antiseptic smells.

But there’s a newish, natural, kid on the cleaning block.

Citrox is a natural garden disinfectant that can be safely used on all your greenhouse surfaces, including pots, capillary matting, staging, tools and accessories.

Try to get in all the nooks and crannies where over-wintering pests might be lurking with whatever product you use. Give the glass a good clean to remove dirt and algae and maximise the available light to your plants and seedlings.
