i mainly just don't want it to make me sick. like if you eat the sprouts off a regular onion, that would be bad, right?

 

[flashback]

ah no, I'd say you'd live alright.
Its more just the strength of flavour, and dryness of the stalks.

say, €29.99 is a bit steep for a hoe isn't it?

 

[ratmonkey]

Gs up, hoes down.

 

[Diddles]

We paid about 30 quid for a complete set of gardening tools. The hoe didn't last though so maybe you should fork out* for a good one.

[therealjohnny]

i spent a rake of money on the hoe in the end

but got fed up and just put weedkiller everywhere instead

 

[flashback]

weedkiller is uncool man... just dig it into the ground sure.
good for ya.

I went out last night up the road, pulling the plants out of people's bins that they had pulled up out of their garden because they had finished flowering.
Saps.
Wait till they see my compost heap. They'll come craaaawling back.
They always do in the end.

The slug/snail bastards have eaten my courgette plants. I only have one left

I thinned out me turnip seedlings and one has already been eaten.

I have to plant out the sprouts and broccoli this weekend but there's no point if the cunts are going to eat them.

I'm off to the ecoshop tomorrow to buy slug pellets. Sorry, guyz, but enough is enough. I've tried to be nice but it doesn't work.

i'm not going to read back, but did you try copper tape borders??? i think they hate that shit and dont cross it. its on ebay.

Copper tape refers to an adhesive copper tape. Copper tape is also marketed as slugit to keep slugs and snails out of certain areas in gardens or flower pots. Copper tape also has other applications, such as electromagnetic shielding or low-profile surface mount transmission line in electronics and in the production of tiffany lamps.

It's expensive though, and you need about two inches around everything to make it effective.

I made rings of pennies around some of the plants but it did fuck all. People don't realise that these bastards can live and travel UNDER the soil.

Sorry, but it's execution day tomorrow.

 

[ann post]

i think i missed her. next time she reads this she'll already have bought slug pellets.


oh, nevermind.

 

[magicbastarder]

i spend about half an hour most evenings picking the fuckers up and dropping them into cheap beer.

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.

coooooool, i'm going to grow a pineapple!

Went all the way to Greystones to buy pet friendly slug pellets. I feel bad about the whole thing but I'm determined to get them out of the veg patch.

As a compromise I bought an ELECTRIC FENCE to go round the veg patch which will hopefully deter the other 7 billion slugs and snails from trespassing.

yis were talking about slugs
anyway,a bag of sand is the eco/everything friendly answer,put a line of it round the veg patch,the slimy fuckers cant stand it on their sensitive bellies/bottoms so turn back the minute they encounter it leaving yr veg unmolested.if its that easy,every days a treat.

 

[Anarcho Munk]

slugs aint a problem for me, cats pissing on my lettuce however, is.

 

[La La]

i had breakfast in my garden this morning and was accompanied by aboooout 40 snails and slugs.

i think they're plotting a coup

(i dont plan on actually trying any of these)
