I think their should be a back balconys forum we say maybe incorporated into the potential gardening forum for people who live in flats/apartments.....

im in favour of this but one thing at a time - theres still a soccer board and theres no beard board or science and nature board.

beard board + science and nature board are OBVIOUSLY gonna be covered in the brand new Gardening forum!, beards-they grow,thicky

Please Pete, we'll send ya veggies, or snails, whicheva!

so, A YES good idea, from me.

 

[therealjohnny]

how about a house and garden one?

and we could have things like "putting up shelves"

we could even include the garage which could lead on to how to look after your car

actually, motoring sub forum?

i have a chives plant from tesco on my balcony. i fucking rocks for cheese toasties.

i had two other plants which died shortly after i put 'one minute miracle grown fertiliser' on them. do yous greenfingers know why this happened?

 

[magicbastarder]

because that shit is evil!!!! Only use compost or make nettle or compfrey feed. never use shop bought stuff. its just chemicals.

 

[magicbastarder]

using chemicals can lock you into a cycle where you *need* chemicals.

 

[ann post]

seven years i had that plant, the new gaff had very bad sun exposure so i thought i'd get it some food to help it (it had a elevated south facing bay window all to itself before), and the shit kills it. had that plant for 7 bastard yeas!! i still have the withered stalks, though obviously now steeped in chemicals and shit. are there any rituals or rights/black magic i could perform?? its really hard to pull off a leon'esque existence with just a poxy chives plant.


if only there had been a gardening thread/forum/subforum, none of this need ever have happened. pete.

if you mix up the fertilizer properly it should work perfectly.
I mean, sometimes it can make plants that you want to be flowery too leafy or something, but, if you carefully read the directions, and maybe err on the side of meanness you will almost definitely be ok.
Unless... like, I dunno, its some bromeliad that lives off almost no nutrients or something.

You are putting a tiny drop into the a watering can full of water, right? The quantity you use should be tiny.

Stuck the top of a pineapple in a saucer of water for a bit, on a windowsill, it grew shoots on the underside, then I planted it, now it's HUGE. One day I'll have a pineapple tree with baby pineapple to make pina coladas with. I will.

[magicbastarder]

aphids tend to stain the fingers. i've spent the last twenty minutes rubbing them off a plum tree.

 

[ann post]

so now that i've removed all life from the gaff, i want to start the whole process again.. ..i have one balcony, not well exposed to sun, possibly two hours a day during summer and indirect light during winter, wanna put something green there. whats hard as fuck to kill and looks like i know what i'm at with plants??
