One of our greatest horticultural pleasures recently has been introducing our granddaughter to fresh fruit and veg. She ate her first fresh tomato...
I'd no idea that web space had become so expensive, but it's about 7 years since I last ran a dedicated site and that was without most of the...
Thanks for your reply Ziggy. If GC is paying £50 per month it seems a bit steep.
The plea to members to donate seems a bit odd. It is currently showing that "We're currently 0% of the way to achieving our goal of £50" Quite...
Ditch the runners and give climbing french beans a try. We get plenty from 6 to 8 plants and you can cook them whole when young or shell them when...
Too early and too cold is my guess. Mail order is a bit hit or miss for gardens north of the Watford Gap as many of the plants supplied via mail...
What needs to change Eddie is your expectations of what you can reasonably achieve within the time you can spend enjoying your gardening. There's...
I've found that spraying works most, but not all of the time so last year I kept our potted peach in the GH all nearly all year rather than just...
Spring Migration Greylag geese off to Iceland - RSPB Loch Leven [ATTACH]
They won't thrive in "soil", but will live in humus-rich soil conditions as Armandii has said but once the humus is exhausted they'll pop their...
Is that Bocking 14 Steve? I dug up some of our comfrey a couple of years ago and put it on the compost heap. I spread some of the compost in the...
I'm lucky with the wooden base of my GH, it's teak that was once part of colliery headgear. It's probably now around 100 years old and there's no...
The ones you sow now will survive winter but in Autumn and early Spring will start setting seed, develop thick main stems and won't develop large...
Open it or the plants will cook, as a glimmer of sun will set the temperature soaring. I've lost more early season seedlings/young plants to...
We do much the same, though really ought to sow in late August/September too for an early crop of fresh stuff.
Brilliant shots, just wish I could do that sort of stuff.
One cheap strategy to try if using the wood you've got would be to buy a roll of damp proof course material and slip it beween the bottom of the...
Never ever soaked them and they've always grown just fine. I sow in pinches of three or four seeds spaced about 3 or 4 inches and then reduce to...
I should have added to my last post, that last year I ran out of seeds and didn't have sufficient home grown plants so I went to our local GC and...
I think it's a house mouse Harry but I'm not 100% certain.
