I have seen problems in a few areas, only one of which I can categorically state comes from the bark, but once I started thinking about this...
Another good reason to move to France. Dammit why do I stay here. Note to self; - possible subject for new thread :rolleyes:
LoL...wow! I nearly bought a 1957 Caddy Coupe de Ville convertible with the automatic hard top from a guy in Mexico City in 1979. He found me...
Worth a stab. As I understand it it isn't the straw that works per se, but the products released as it rots, so you have to be patient. I have...
How much damage do leeches do? There's thousands of the little suckers in one of my clients Koi ponds. I never thought they would seriously damage...
Done the tights thing (no I don't wear them - and my clients found it amusing my asking them for their cast-offs) and sad to report its more...
I have one in my garden (my own one for a change). It grew like mad, then died in a mysterious sudden way. I thought no more of it since I was...

Or do it the sneaky way, go to Homebase, buy one of their flimsy B&D/Bosch/Powercrud lines (or whatever) and take out their three year extended...
IMHO they are a pain, the ones most of us can afford cut, if at all, then at such a snails pace that it drives me mad. The ones that work are huge...
Definite no-no if there is no outside tap, as Kandyfloss has illustrated. I install loads of the things, they aren't perfect, but once set up they...
The original question was can I use it on the soil. I wouldn't because I fear it might hang around in the soil, with possible germination problems...
Just as I was about to get annoyed with Hornbeam about monocultures and such like I see his excellent advice about grease lines and wwater traps....
