Hope you like it. Just a tip if your glass is a bit on the green side, after you have sprayed on your detergent, leave it for a few mins to 'work'. people have a tendency to apply then scrub straight away. let the soap work for its living.

I just think that its horses for courses and wd40 is a workshop garage product. Slug pellets (safe type or not)heaped in a pile on top of the pot surface will repel slugs away from new growth Hosta's and such. If you can lay themn at the correct spacing at the base and use as a bait then you can get...

Probably not slugs as they woul dgo for the new tubers underground.

Did you fertilize before planting?

Try applying a few doses of a liquid feed to the foliage. water til it runs off the leaves., Tis may give it a boost

When growing in greenhouses through winter you must make use of all available light which means keepingthe glass clean inside and out. Not that easy but if you go to www.superspray.co.uk you can see a superspray garden feeder. It clips to your hosepipe and will dilute detergent as you spray. it has ...

I have a black hamburg growingunder my pagola for shade purposes. First year I fed it like mad to get plenty of growth so I could train the leaders to give a strucured canopy. Once your happy with the coverage,then in winter,cut sideshoots back to a bud and nip out the leaders. When new growth appea...

WD 40 is a lubricant containing oil, solvent and other 'things', while it may stop slugs climbing pots its not what you should be spraying around the garden etc. its a polutant.

This is a vatiation of the old fluid sowning method but it works for me. place about six layers of kitchen role in th ebottom of a plastic sandwich box, cover with water and drain away the excess. Place parsnip seeds in a grid pattern about 1.5cm apart and put th lid on. Place in a cupboard giving a...

Nematodes are small microscopic worms that naturally inhabit the soil. many worms and many types. Nemaslug supplies a particular nematode that predates on slugs, especially the small black keel slugs that live underground and come out at night to feed, These nematodes are not very effective on snail...

Bought it, applied it and now I wait! re the superspray - when I mixed the 'meal' in the tank I kept shaking the tank to make sure it didnt settle. Accuracy of application apparentley is secondary to getting plenty of water onto the soil to wash in the nematodes. I guess with a watering can one coul...

The yellowing could be down to a nutrient defficiency or the stable manure buring the roots. If you can recognise it for what it is then it may have not been'composted' enough. I would only apply this in autumn and dig it in. prefferably it need to be old so the heat and the salts have disappated fr...

Ive read quite a number of threads about this subject and thought this year Id have a go myself having done a bit of technical research which I now share. If regulations haven’t changed then the quantity of ‘live’ seed in a packet must be around 80% but once sown unless growing conditions are perfec...

May I suggest that you be careful here please. Ideally you should use an amoured cable which can be buried directly in the soil and will resist a blow with a spade. Or buy some plastic conduit from B&Q which is about 2.5m long plus sleeve joints and about 20mm dia. insert in that. If your runing...

Rotten job cleaning greenhouses, sticky and wet! I found using a 'Superspray'to be just the job, works like a miraclegrow hose end feeder but you can put anything in it. I fill the thing with Jeyes and give the inside a good blasting. dilutes as you spray, no buckets only a hosepipe. Then for the ou...

Had a bit of a problem over the winter with white fly on me curly Kale and spring Cabbage! They say that marigolds and basil will put them off but anyone know the planting density? I think if I can scare them off in the summer, they wont be there in the winter. I did note that the gardener on "...

I have a superspray hose end sprayer which I bought mail order from ??? Superspray!!! which I use for spraying seaweed fert. as a foliar feed on the old veg patch (and lawn) and just revceived an email from the makers saying that its just been approved as a sprayer to apply Nemaslug. This is a "...
