Thinking ahead to next year - I want to grow something I've not grown before ..... peas. My garden is mainly given over to flowers, but I do...
Bit late to this thread but ..... I was seriously sceptical about this latest 'must have gadget' - that was until Mr. F'smum bought me one. It's...
That's kind of what I'm getting at Chris. Even at the lowest end of your estimate, £15,000 is a 'hellava' lot to spend on a 'small garden', and...
I've heard this before from someone (which is how I came to be in Asda), but since I couldn't see any, I sought out an Asda type person who knew...
This year, my biggest 'alternative' has been Asda plastic buckets. Since, unusually, I had about 98% germination of tomato seeds and every family...
Personally, I think yes. Take, for example the Hampton Court Flower Show - if you aren't/weren't an RHS member, it's a whopping 29 quid for a...
:DOH:I recall my youngest daughter (at the age of about 6), helping me weed by carefully pulling up every emerging seedling she could possibly...
I too have (some) gravel, paths mainly, which I put down about 10 - 12 years ago and I too put down weed membrane. I have to say that if I did it...
For what it's worth, I'd say under normal circumstances go with a fixed hourly rate but ..... sometimes (and I stress the word 'sometimes'), a...
I've got a pair of leather gloves - so old I can no longer remember where I bought them or for how much. Over the years they've moulded themselves...
We need pics (apart from anything else, we like looking at other people's gardens 'cos we're a nosey bunch!). Without the benefit of pics (yet)...
Ohhh! :cry3:
Close the curtains. Open windows only on the shaded side of the house. Damp cloth or kitchen paper towel on the back of the neck, cool drinks...
... I've just checked on 'Metcheck' for the weather in my area for the remainder of this week. Now, I don't want to worry anyone but this is what...
Marley, a question. If you're pouring boiling water over them, why are you bothering to use Bicarb., as well? My Gran would always just use...
Silly question but .... how high do greenfly actually fly? My daughter lives in a 3rd floor flat without a balcony (well, 6" hardly counts as a...
Hi C - welcome. Now someone will be able to tell you exactly 'when', but I think it was in the last series of Gardener's World, Joe Swift built...
Thanks for that shiney, it'll be a great help. My garden is 'all wrong' - it doesn't have 3 of this, 5 of that, tall things at the back,...
No, it's not you. For example - Mr. F'smum recently had an Outpatients appointment at our local hospital (for which, I might add, he specifically...
I shop in Waitrose. Posh? Me? Nah! I go regularly - once every year without fail .... it's the only place around here where I can buy jars of...
