Rhubarb

Wrong no carpet  im told by the Rhubarb expert,, cover with manure and leave it as origanaly Rhubarb came form outer Mongolia or somewhere very cold and the plant is the type that has to have at least 2 weeks cold so the carpet is a NO,NO there apparantly is a name for plants taht need cold spells it begins with D but i forgot what he said it was  So sorry and good luck

wild apples

Hi Potter its so strange iv never even given Wild apple trees more thought other than how nice they look,,untill today i purchased a jar of wild apple jam,i,d never heard of it until i saw it at the car boot sale,and now your talking about it,strange? But the jam is very different and very tastey,good luck Alan4711

Seaweed

seeing as seaweed doesnt deposit passed the high water line  no one can own it, as its between the high water line and the seabed  permission cannot be granted by anyone eccept by the crown and i dont think they will mind  do you

Rhubarb

we have covered it leaves and all in manure and over the winter an old carpet  this was the advise from all the allotmenteers hope its right

Biten by unknown bugs

we started useing Avon oh so soft after being advised its used by the marines abroad for mozys, it is just great it works very well with biting horse fies which we get as big as horses down in Wales and they hurt and itch for days,this is the best weve used yet and cheap as in summer it goes on special offer try it we all did.

Dog fouling on lawn and in the soil

and while we speak the big black and whit one has actually just done it again on brand new turf and i was told they don't do it on just grass OH yes they do now,that chicken wires going up ASAP its just so annoying and all the repellents so far a waste of money

Seaweed

Hi again Jack,i have actually spoken to our local council about collecting seaweed and they we cannot see a reason why a council would mind gardeners collecting sea weed,beachcombers are accepted as is people who collect flotsam and jetsam,also shell collectors and so forth,the tide lines used are high mean ,so between the high tide line and the sea shore and sea bed that is almost always owned by the crown ,high water lines are the accepted point of change if any,  and not the start of  buildings or roads or vegetation and are the legal acceptance in almost all cases,charges made on beeches ie car parks etc are after the high tide line therefore legal,  so seaweed is best and free
