My plot is other side of sand dunes so with heavy wind/rain it gets fair share of sea water, plus in the past I have put couple builders bag full of sea weed straight from beech.
Can't say I have notice any damage to the soil.

Been hearing that I have to be nice to snails as well as slugs, not a chance for either on my plot, they enter at their own risk.

It's good to hear you are getting a generous pension as you should, I gu...

Re: solar irrigation system

Re: Late Winter Bits and Bobs.

Re: Tesco vs Asda on prices
