I gasped in horror watching this as i manured all my soil in spring and also give a liquid feed every few weeks . i love the look of the new lupins and will be adding more nxt year. i have jused started to plant hollyhock seeds in my greenhouse

for the first time this year but have had no sucess either with them in the greenhouse or outside. I am looking for different ways to keep pigeons from my cabbages on my allotment. So far plastic bags blowing about on strings over them seems to be working, but I

have a recipe for cooking snails? Icky!!! I did find a large amount in a plastic bag at the back of the greenhouse the other day. Needless to say, neck tied and in the bin! Perhaps a few bag lined pots selectively placed around the garden would help
