Hi Gerry, I am preparing a veg. garden for the first time. How do I get rid of the grass and roots, presumably I cannot use any weed deterrant, is it possible to cover the grass area a few weeks before digging in order to let the grass roots die off a bit? Thanks , Maguto
I know about the "June Drop", but my apples (Worcester Pearmain), growing against a South facing wall, keep dropping until they are all gone, long before they are ripe, or big enough. Is this a deficiency?
I cut back my abuliton today 18.02.09 not hard but removing a foot or two off a 10 foot plant and i would like to know if i can propogate these. I know that abuliton have a short life and i would like to keep it going.
i have two bay trees in quite large containers outside my front door.i have noticed the leaves turning brown. they have only recently been transfered in to these new pots as they had outgrown the previous ones..they are around 5 feet in height.what can i do to rectify this problem.i replanted the trees in a mix of topsoil and peat.
Hi Gerry, could you tell me what plants I can plant now that will come up for the spring? I would love some colour in the garden. Thanks.
Gerry, I have new ground that was never gardened before and was wondering where to start. It is now basically a field. Should I spray it first to get rid of weeds and grass or plough it up or what? I intend to grow vegetables on it.Conor.
