Durian tips and tricks
First of all, recognize that growing from seed you will not be guaranteed of fruiting and or that the fruit will be true to the variety that you ate and enjoyed. Vegetatively propagated, grafted trees are the only way to ensure the chosen variety. But you can have a good learning experience with soil preparation and management, planting, pruning, watering through the hot, dry season which is coming right up. If you decide to go for it, then I recommend that you first do some YouTube viewing to help prepare for what you are getting into, the size of the trees, space and management that should be considered. TM Durian Farmer from Kanchanaburi on the River Kwai is enthusiastic and shares a lot of good information on his YT channel. https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=tm+durian+farmer He's not an organic grower, and in my opinion has some built-in problems that will develop with chemical management, crude pruning technique and watering practices that will exacerbate disease issues and early decline in the long run, but it's a good overview with some important information for durian growers. Personally I wouldn't be putting a lot of money into an unknown seedling variety, but if you are going all-out, consider a hemp grow kit for each of your seedlings, from Maruchu Bussan: https://maruchubussan.co.th/product/hemp-grow-kit/ At least get their potting soil and excellent hydrolysed fish fertilizer, Takumi Fish Amino Fertilizer . Upgrade your six-inch seedlings, each into a 2 to 5 gal pot and grow in partial shade until a meter tall or more before planting out. They will need to be in full sun for the final location, but it looks like you will be planting in the ground during the hottest, driest time of year, so a diligent watering program will be vital, and maybe some temporary shade cloth coverings. Appropriate watering is critical, not too much or too little, and that takes some experience to get it right. Durian trees are highly susceptible to a fungus-like pathogen called a water-mold - Phytophthora spp root and crown rot. Avoid watering directly on the tree trunk and root crown, and avoid overwatering and excessive frequency. Cover cropping and/or mulching can help build soil organic matter content, soil aggregate structure, soil moisture retention, and nutrient cycling. I hope that helps, Don -

Sainsbury's Faces £140 Million Hit from National Insurance Hike, Warns of Rising Inflation
I've ran a business in the UK for 30 years, I know what I'm talking about. What happens to company profits when costs increase? ................................. Setting aside talking to this arrogant wee man, on the ground in the UK many people I know are closing up, selling or retiring. They've had enough. My business partner had to talk me out of retiring last night. You see, the one thing businessmen love is having their payroll costs increased by a triple whammy and then told their pensions are now liable for 40% tax. Its truly wonderful stuff. Then we turn to the idiot and see gibbering idiots writing off £140 million payroll cost increase as minor and irrelevant. Just moronic talk. -

They are a tax deductible cost, so no they do not come out of profits. -
