Strawberries preparing
The bed is 6m x 1/2m two strips. Bit expensive and labour intensive with straw. Vine weevil I did not know about, I'll look that up. I will dig out the older plants and let the new suckers take over.

Latest moan from you and me 2026
Already been used for spraying cocaine crops in Colombia and other countries in South America and I believe it was used to spray opium poppies in Afghanistan pre Taleban return.
