My dad's apple and pear trees are not bearing any fruit this year. He is wondering if it is due to a frost that may have occured when he was away in April.

I set up 3 raised beds and planted plugs and seeds early April, mixture of onions, celery, cabbages, broccolli, carrots, etc. most of the veg (cabbages & onions excluded) have bolted. When I set up the beds I dug up soil well and added 1 bag "Gee up" manure and 2 bags of moss peat to each bed (bed approx 10ft X 4ft). watering dosn't appear to be a problem, any advice on what has gone wrong ?

I am having trouble with small maggott type creatures that appear between the top and bottom surfaces of the leaves and leave white tracks along the leaves of cabbage, brussells sprouts, kale, brocoli and even geraniums and other plants. What is this and what can I do to get rid of them?
