  1. Seems to have been an odd year for germination a few people have had problems on our plots this year. I think I will give it a go on the plot the spuds are going in next year and see what happens
  2. Health permitting I think you just got to keep going and keep active. As soon as you start slowing down its going to get harder to get going again and your on a slippery slope. Thats the plan any way
  3. Can get online here 2 bags tad under 30 delivered http://www.loveyourpet.co.uk/dog/food/dry-adult
  4. Some nice field mushrooms by me but I haven't picked any. I have done in the past just bit wary now a days. Think it was last year some chap ate the wrong ones and his internal organs shutdown in devon I think. I think you need to be well clued up and I am not so have not picked any
  5. With the squatters it might help as well to make a slight noise of some sort so the dog gets to know its needs to look close
  6. Got the week off so been trying to get ontop of the weeds. Started skimming the top off my path to stop it creeping onto the plot The other side is a bit of a pain my neighbours jungle keeps coming at me. I keep taking the edge off but they wont have a plot left at this rate dug up the box hedge and paving slabs they were just hiding weeds and slugs once thats done I can do the same on the other plot so plenty to do
  7. If you have a read through this section there are plenty of ideas http://tinyurl.com/qz8dx63
  8. Dam good film the no2 wasn't as good
  9. Any thoughts on pig manure for the plot ? I have access to some on a hard standing by the road side so i can bag it easy whopping heap going back years. Had a quick google and it all seems doom and gloom about it. The pigs are kept indoors and fed pellets not sure if they get scraps or not
  10. Yep definite change in the weather this week mornings are nippy and the late evenings. Nights are pulling in and the black berries seem early. Fingers crossed for a nice frosty proper winter.
  11. I would have thought if its just a case of a couple of hops and the rabbits in cover so the pup can have a sniff a round no harm done and its all learning. But I wouldn't want him having a proper run my self
  12. Cracking pictures John nice to have. Didn't they have weeds back then bloody spotless
  13. Would the gain 28 be suitable for pup of 5 months ? there puppy and sapling is bit on the pricey side
  14. Fairy well thats some thing else to try handy to know. My sweet corn is still up right after the winds so that was good to see. Sheltered by my runner bean wall. Been picking black berries last few nights too good for a nice tart. Won't be bothering with jam got enough jam done at the moment. Noticed a change in the weather this week bit of a chill in the mornings autumn not far away now
  15. Welcome to gardening, if it's not carrot fly then its cabbage root fly, and if the cabbages get away from that it's the bloody cabbage whites. And if you manage to stop all those the bloody slugs get them. Never ending. TC Thats about right what ever I plant if I read up on whats its most prone too thats what I will get and it says don't plant the same family there again for years to come so it won't be long on my two plots I won't be able to plant any thing for years Saying that even with club root I found this year starting in pots and get a big root ball going then big han
  16. yea be surprised if my sweetcorn is still standing tomorrow but fingers crossed
  17. Great days and the old motor bike battery acid rotting holes in all your clothes. As a kid before I had a lurcher the first time I went for a walk at night just to see what I could see I actually used a flashing yellow/orange light pinched off the road cones. I switched it onto static of course so as not to seem like a complete loon Even with that I saw rabbits out and about which set me on my path to get my first lurcher or get a job with the council
  18. is this what your looking for ? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/200388410206?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
  19. How was the aztec broccoli terry? Sorry John meant to message you yes it was very nice. Good texture great colour and tasted good. Wouldn't say it tasted like spinach or a broccoli some where in the middle had a taste of its own. But if you like either of them two you would like it. So from me
  20. Pile loads of time into the stock training while you have the chance before you know it he will be 10 months old and raring to go. Time flies by when they are pups. Be interested what you do switch his diet too do you think his not doing ok on what ever your using now ? Looks fine in the picture
