General Gardening Discussion

Thanks for all the suggestions, i'll have to go and have a good old mooch round the G.C. this weekend, i'll keep you posted with what i get. :thmb:

If the seeds are spourting I don't see no problem about potting them on now I mean I would normally sow my seeds next month so you will only be a few weeks earlier than normal. All you have to remember is that they need to be undercover i.e. in a greenhouse, cold frame or even a lowly window...

Walking in the neighboring woods and fields and picking mushrooms ( the ones I can recognize). Cooking mushroom omelette and soup on our fire box (camping style, in the garden). No better way to eat mushrooms, me thinks, smoky croutons, toasted on wood fire, plenty of fresh thyme, and a bottle...

I thought Yoder were a type of dwarf Chrysanthemum.:lollol:

Cool. Thank you

We pulled out 5 trees with a monster truck fitted with a v8 that was the easy way lol

Use the soluble concentrate and brush it on that way you can target what you want,don't use the spray gun one.

:D:D:D

Also a lot of plants are self pollinating (self fertile) they possess both male and female organs (stigma & anthers) the stigma is a little slower growing within the flower and has to push its way through the anthers(pollen carriers) picking up the pollen often the flower is fertilized before it...

Dont try pulling it with a vehicle, youll only break something mechanical...... Stump grinder or just cut it off a few inches below ground level and forget.

:rotfl: inter..

Managed to mow the grass, lol, but looking at it theres probably more moss now than grass on half of the front. Broke a spade and fork digging round the tree to see where the roots are (it's okay they were cheapy cheapy ones so not too much value lost, didn't use my good spade thank goodness)....

Alas my red peaches have died. I may have overwatered them, I'm not sure. Anyone have any peach growing tips?

Do you have a cold frame or greenhouse-or a shady and protected corner MzTrouble? Camelia...............................................In spring after it has flowered. Lavender..............................................Trim back as soon as planted, then after flowering into new...

I am amazed, no one has mentioned the original method of using 50/50 loam or compost and sharp sand. Everyone seems to think that only the expensive ways will do the job.My next door neighbour recently expressed a wish to remove his front hedge and replace it with Laurel. As I have several...

i like gadgets too

Hi binchy,What the hell's a fedge? Normally with willow the more you cut them the more bushier they become. If you plan on keeping a regular trimming routine then this shouldn't be a problem as long as you don't let the limbs too large. The trunk will increase in girth and you'll end up with a...

You can just buy an orchard pack. This site sells fruit trees in packs of 6 or 16 as maidens, bushes or half standards where the varieties have all been chosen to make sure you get a long fruiting season and everything that needs a pollinator has one.Good luck

I believe you, Freddy.:wink:

You are welcome, Freddy. :p
