Thank you, folks, for your valuable help. In connection with fertilisers, I doubt if I could buy organics- e.g. rock potash, seaweed meal, seaweed liquid for foliar feeding, etc.- locally for anything like the prices from Kay's. Or am I mistaken about what I perceive to be the excellent prices in Ka...

The following proves nothing- just(true)stories of freak rootings. Friend of mine found where the deer were getting in and he cut a branch from a nearby oran (alder). It was between 3 and 4 inches thick. Hammered it into the gap. A month or two later the thing was producing growth, and it did actual...

We've had a marvellous year for our favourite bird, about 20 nests. Not sure how many broods but I'd be surprised if they could manage four up here.Most I've counted on the wires at one time is 69, with a few flying around. But it's 18th. September, there are still some unfledged chicks, and few if ...

That was with scientific supervision! Memory horrifies but then it was just spectacular and fascinating. I.
