Seedless gripe.
Hello Mark, I too ordered (online)and received the mag. but not the seeds. I've done nothing about it but I was considering emailing Mr Ott. (SteveOtt(at)mortons.co.uk) I THINK that's the address. If I start making phone calls I'd end up with expensive seeds, such are my telephone arrangements. I th...

Re: Growing in a polytunnel
[ you name the crop and I'll tell you what happens if I know.[/quote] That's a generous offer.I've just acquired a Northern 21 x 42 in which I hope to do about 80% of my veg. growing. I've read everything I can get my hands on re. organic raised beds but, apart from the excellent book by the late Be...

Instead of inviting us to use "General Chat", why not create a new meeting-place (ANOTHER forum!) with a name that identifies it properly, like "The Old Forum Reborn" (or something). When you opened it there'd be a heading in bold print: "This is the forum for those who dislike what they see as the ...

Death by a thousand forums.
I feel obliged to express complete agreement with Chris. My experience is identical. For me there's little pleasure in anything so needlessly complicated and time-consuming. It's like being in a maze. I've been thinking that because it seems that nobody's going to admit to having created a monster i...

Citadel polytunnels.
Hi Paul, I'd be more likely to turn IN at The Golden LION, to tell you the truth. Re. Northern's high- siders: I contacted their (most helpful ) rep. up here and he told me about them.

citadel polytunnels; message for paul r.
Hi Paul, I just got a 21x42 from Northern Polytunnels with straight sides up to I think it's 5 feet.( haven't got it up yet ). For some reason they don't seem to advertise these. I believe they're a good outfit- I know a number of professionals who use them on a big scale, and all swear by Northern....

The KG forum-zzz.
I've just posted a lot of stuff about a Utopian view of what the Forum should be like. I posted it in "News and Views" (or whatever), but I probably wouldn't have posted it at all (or not in those terms) had I read this thread first.Isn't it the point that the kind of things we're saying here could ...
