Re: Lunar planting
Lunar gardening is something I've not yet been able to try out. Not having that much room for growing, it hasn't seemed worth it.

Re: Project Holidays?
I wouldn't mind moles, they're not so much with the scary :-p I know you have no snakes, the Druids took them with them when Patrick persecuted them into leaving :-D But minks, foxes and badgers? Cool, all creatures I've yet to see in the wild...though minks are kinda nasty aren't they? Ecologically...

Re: Goji berries?
Glad I read back a few pages, I didn't want to start a new topic on this if there was already one around :-) I've been wanting to grow goji berries for a while, and after watching 'Grow Your Own Drugs' a few nights ago, I want to grow them all the more! Does anyone know of any (UK) garden centres th...

Re: frut bushes at lidls
Over the years I've found that poundshop fruit bushes and other plants can be rather hit and miss, I've not had any trouble with Lidl/Aldi ones though. Except for how fast they seem to sell out :-s

Re: Project Holidays?
Wow! Thats a fabulous idea! I'm hopefully going over to a friend's in Queensland during summertime to do something similar, orchard planting and the like, but if that doesn't work out...

Re: Thinking about keeping bees?
