Re: New season veg

We've got trusses on the Red Robin - they were the ones we started in the hydroponic unit but proved far too tall. They're well ahead of all the others though.
We also have lots of lettuce - care of the aforementioned hydroponics.

Re: Can certain plants prevent fruit tree problems if put under the trees
This chap has some very interesting suggestions, plus there's a link to a previous page. I've not looked at it in detail but he explains the benefits of each companion plant so you might find what you require. https://chriscondello.wordpress.com/2013/11/12/practical-permaculture-planting-under-fruit...

Re: German supermarkets in Ireland
I hope they learn they other way too, ina. They recently did a vegan range and my daughter was so enamoured she virtually cleaned out one store and wrote to them to ask if it could become a permanent range, not just a one-off. She got a very nice response, saying they'd had loads of similar requests...

Re: Has Spring sprung?
Snow forecast here on higher ground for the next couple of days, so, no, winter is still hanging on. I'm sure the ski industry will be delighted.

Re: Has Spring sprung?
Spring apparently sprang back in its box - in the middle of the night! When we went to bed it was fairly mild, with not a breath of wind. 3a.m. saw us with all the hot taps on running hot water off the thermal store - the wind had picked up to the point that, even damped down, the boiler went into o...

Re: Hops
A neighbour used to grow them in his greenhouse, if I remember correctly, but I've not known anyone growing them outdoors.

Re: Keeving
I'd never heard of it before so had to investigate, of course. It seems they produce it commercially in France, so it must be manageable. Anyway, I found this article interesting and informative. I hope it helps.

Re: Easter
Lovely, none for me though, thanks. Diet prohibits them - this year. I don't suppose they'll save so I'll have some of next years batch.

Re: Uzbekistan
I certainly like the idea of getting folk to tend their gardens but maybe carrots, rather than stick would be better.
I really liked the HFW garden share scheme that allowed people to let out their gardens, to keen growers, for a share of the harvest. I don't know if it's still going.

Re: Has Spring sprung?
Well I'm not venturing out into the rain and wind, we're currently enjoying,to plant anything! It's back to normal weather for us, after the lovely spell during everyone else's snow. We may have to rely on windowsill tomatoes and salad grown in two small hydroponics units. Oh, and calamondin, which ...

Re: Fragrant geranium
Yes, just pull off half a dozen good leaves and stick them in a pot of damp compost. Cover with a plastic bag to keep in the moisture and leave undisturbed for a week or so. You should get at least four new plants out of them.

Re: Mints
I don't think there's any problem, I think some like to have their roots wetter than others but that could be achieved by planting on a slope. I'd grow them all in some sort of container though, or you may never find the rest of your garden again.
