forest of dean redneck 11,190 Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 Space cleared for the shed Weeded around runner beans,which are starting to show signs of some sort of blight? And sheeted over where spuds were to as not growing till next summer now. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
terryd 8,045 Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 looks good I would imagine the runners are just coming too the end for what ever reason mine are the same. While the wife was away the beans got left to grow too big and then the plants went down hill quick 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
forest of dean redneck 11,190 Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 Next doors is same,and they dumped aload of stuff in a heap at the bottom,I wonder if they just left diseased stuff there and it's infected other stuff, as the plot otherside of them,said she had blight for first time she's ever been there 4? Years. I would thought it would been better to either burn it or take it to the tip which is not far away. Next time I will have spuds down bottom where runners are to,runners where sheets down to.

terryd 8,045 Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 this is handy http://www.blightwatch.co.uk/ they notify you when there is a smith period not that there is much to be done about it Lot of luck involved a fella at the top of the hill got hit early on but us down the bottom were fine until late by which time it didnt matter Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jok 3,036 Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 Forest. Sorry pal .was having one of them rambling moments. My neighbour just gave me a bagful to give to the chickens. No offence. Eh Terry you are looking a bit like on top of the job. Great stuff. I've started cooking again so if youv'e anything interesting I'd like to hear about it. Whatdog.can't grow anything under slabs but like your post. I've just put up one of my old marquee frames as a tunnel. Managed to get some commercial poly from the local strawberry grower so should be ok. Really enjoyed this summer and looking forward to winter. One of our growers has come up with winter beetroot, winter peas and of course all the usual stuff so it shouldn't be boring. Jok. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
