Re: Advice for a hopeless gardener
It’s interesting that ‘self set’ spuds are ok when farmed spuds go bad. Our gardens here have onions that suffer from disease,but not the perennials. Our perennial cabbage gets the odd pest,but not many ( they are brilliant actually) ,our fruit trees next to the cabbage thrive too. And so forth. Our...

Re: Advice for a hopeless gardener
Blight is an issue right now,both domestically and nationally too. The potatoes coming from shops are far from the best,and that’s an understatement! It’s rather interesting that the self setting spuds in our heaps are doing ok right now though.Looking at news Mrs J has made sure we have tinned spud...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 11
This domestic heating business is personal though. After all ,many people do have gas heating and that’s fair enough. It’s certainly been popular.Well for fifty years to now. In the fullness of time the UK will see gas gradually end as even now much is being brought in by ship as this is no longer l...

Re: Long-term storage of meats and fish? What options?
An interesting topic. As a professional butcher I have dried and stored meat in various ways, both farmed meats and wild meat. No problems and there are loads of recipes and methods. In our modern world though it’s an irony, as when the old style preservation was devised it was because of lack of re...

Re: Death by sheep
My son worked on a farm when he was in high school. The farm manager ended up in hospital with several broken ribs after a cow attacked him - then rolled on him when he was on the ground. Cows are dangerous animals! I can remember many years ago when we were ironically catching foxes with our dogs ...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 11
That sounds like a nice wee break you had. Preps here are to make huge changes to my expectations I think. Today we went to Peebles, lovely wee town we've been going to for donkey's years for the good boutiquey-type shops, loads of cafes and nice walks down by the river. We lasted two hours. It was...

Re: Advice for a hopeless gardener
I am not convinced that is blight. I can't seen anything "fungal fluffy growth" and I have always seen at least a little of that with a bad/collapsed plant. All about blight here with pics. https://horticulture.co.uk/potatoes/blight/ While this is frost damage https://www.allotments4all.c...
