Two - level very overgrown garden. No topsoil or clay - only builder rubble, stones and sand.. Lower level sloping towards house with no retaining wall with wooden railing separating upper and lower levels. No access for mini digger. Two landscapers have said no to job with one saying it's the worst he's ever seen. Can you give me some advice please. We are senior citizens (68 & 69) but have removed most of the weeds by hand.

I am growing onions in a polytunnel but the stalks are shooting up way too fast and starting to fall over. Is there any way to slow this growth?

I planted this hedge about 2 years ago. Growth fantastic. Towards end of last year 3 plants started to fade and I replaced them and they are doing brilliantly. However the one next to them has now faded, (leaves dying off and branches discoloured). Any idea what may be causing this and is there a cure.

More Critters I came across about a foot down in the soil, I presume the small 'c' shaped ones are the weevil grub but what are the ugly long ones please.

Is this the adult vine weevil please? If not is it a badie anyway? Finding a lot of grubs in my garden lately and have no idea of the badies or goodies. Thanks
