Mouse Sitrep.10 days clear of mice! Nothing in the trap and no poison taken.I doubted the advice to hang up the sacks but I was obviously...
Worth a try! I have a bit of space so I shall try several methods and report back next year!
Gerald,Thank you - very clear.From what I can gather the success rate can be quite high if you can take a cutting at the right time, ie when...
Has anyone successfully grown a mulberry tree from a hardwood cutting? I've read comments on the web that it can be done, but I'd be grateful for...
It all goes in the same hole in the ground, anyway. The coloured bins are just another way of creating lots of non-jobs paid for from our taxes....
Pickled, the seeds are very similar to capers.
I tried The Sutton this year (Spring planting) and, like freddy, was very disappointed with the yield. I found them more resistant to Blackfly...

Mouse No 10 snuffed it on Thursday night (still the same piece of cheese!). Nothing in the trap today and no poisoned bait taken, so either a)...

Paladin I like the concept - very high density. Do you have particularly fertile soil or particularly favourable conditions or do you think that...
I'm surprised that hanging them up is a sufficient deterrent, but I'll be delighted if it works! I will now go and hang up my potato sacks and...
I'm new to the potato game, and probably planted too many this year. I have enjoyed delicious pickings straight from the ground and then...
Thanks for that - I had no idea that wood chips had species related PH. I never cease to learn new things from these forums!
Me too. Strawberries flowering but tomatoes green and rotting. Very odd. I blame the government.
Trees were a mix of mainly Willow, Ash and Beech. Does that make a difference?
I tend to grow Moneymaker outside in pots as they are a pretty safe variety - not as temperamental as many others and I am rather idle about...
Pro GardVery neat and remarkably similar to what I had in mind. I like the featheredge roofing - helps it blend in to the surroundings.
Are you trying to just build a screen or do you want something weatherproof, with a roof. Also, what shape are your recycling boxes/bins? If...
Separate names with a comma.
