      @John365, it's very probably teabags, the tealeaves seem to vanish but leave behind those tiny bits of plastic mesh. I've stopped putting them in my compost bin but if I'm in the mood and have the time, I split them open and just put the leaves in the bin.

          I buy Sainsbury's own brand teabags called red label, but a blue box, they've changed them to plastic free.

              @Escarpment i am wondering whether Gardeners World might do a feature on rice growing this year. Many of us have had gardens like rice paddys this winter. Thinking of an earlier topic , i wonder how the moles are faring , i think they like the damp conditions.

                It seems so funny that just a couple of years ago everyone was talking about growing for drought conditions!

                  Things are begining to happen here.
                  Some seeds set ,to be nurtured over the next few weeks.
                  We are in the east of England ,so good weather is likely.
