Re-using polystyrene for veg seedlings

Don't know anything about growing veg, but your idea sounds alright to me.

I use polystrene broken up in bits for drainage in my pots,  saves on the weight, so there's always a use for it

Creating a wildflower meadow

Hello,

I've  only been gardening for a year but I have asked my OH what he would he would do.

He suggests if the tarmic is easily broken up, then turn it upside down as it will then break down and then ask around (maybe from some friendly farmer )get some top soil aprox 5 " in depth.

Digging tarmac up is no easy job so maybe a digger is required?

I would suggest planting a small section at a time, that way you can see what works and what doesn't. Seed a lot in a one space to give you an idea of what you want. The space you have is huge

Hope that helps.............a little

Good luck

Have you tried local salvage merchants? You might get some insipration from them and probably at a cheaper price  and delivery

Hello,

After enjoying the last issue of Gardeners World I thought I would take up the really good offer of 25 percent off, as advertised pay £21 for 12 editions.. Having tried several times I finally got through to the checkout stage and then found I was going to be charged £34 pounds.

I have to say very disappointing, and I haven't subscribed

Talkback: Preparing for drought in the garden

To thomasina18,

The millions of pounds that you talk of being invested comes from their customers in the first place.

It never ceases to amaze me that here in the UK we always have this problem but other hot countries don't have, and charge their customers significantly less
