Gardening forum.

As a very keen gardener I thought it might be a good idea if there was a gardening forum on the message board. Don't know if there are any keen gardeners among us, but if there are then perhaps we could share Q's & A's with each other.

Yeh angela i see u have a big garden in front of your house must take alot of time to keep it so tidy and blooming .

I'm a keen gardener so I'd love a gardening thread.
Can anyone start by telling me the best place to buy compost in bags up here? I've tried making my own several times but no matter what I do it just seems to end up as smelly mush, , not quite how Allan Titchmarsh says it should look!!!!!!!

[nicnak]

hi porshipoo best place at the moment is coop 2 big bales for £6. and it is really good compost we used it in our polytunnel last year but this year are using organic we have sourced.
hope this helps

Great idea, was wondering how many of you had snowdrops blooming just now. Early I know, but I've had them since mid January.

No sign of any snowdrops in my garden yet.
And the best compost i've used is the bags out of the coop.

I think you have done an ok job at making it then, it's supposed to have a ripe smell if done properly.

[angela5]

is that the one with lots of trees,and a cuple of benches???

No trees sorry but i do have a garden bench and a fantastic patio that i did myself..trees block out to much light.

You can always start with your grass, unless your lawn is very new, scarify and spike now. Clear any leaves as in damp weather they can harbour fungus underneath and you'll end up with a yellow lawn.
Do you have any borders in your garden connie?
