Hi guys I’ve been up since early this morning collecting slugs and snails from around the gardens tunnels and green house Yesterday was so hot they were all out as the sun dropped to get food and water and caused huge carnage I’m completely chemical free so one of my only defences is being there and picking them off one at a time I do use frass from Mad Company that is ground soldier ants that gives on a fragrance that slugs hate Keep a watch out guys as someone always wants to eat your hard work What do you use against pests in your countries ?

Has anyone out there grown a Tamarillo tree or bush ? I have ordered a few seeds to give it a shot.

After a text book lambing Mother just walked away and deserted them. Did try them together.. she’s got different ideas 🙄. They are both ram lambs so that’s two for the pot. On a happier note lm planting out Skirret and Good King Henry both arrived this morning.

Hi all Is anyone else here growing moringa Mine are in pots and ones just started to put out leaves Maybe check it out as you can crop many times a year and also you can feed it to animals too I'll post some photos when there in full growth mode

I’ve never kept bees 🐝 and a few weeks ago I was kindly offered 5 hives 1 of them was had bees in. Now I have no fixed abode so I donated 2 of the hives to @Andrew Munro and sent the other 3 to a friend in Somerset. Since then I’ve ended up on my friends small holding with the bees in Somerset running the vegetable gardens. So this week I’ve been playing with honey lots of honey as the hive’s although they had no bees were full of honey. So here is a few pics of my last few days 😊
