Thanks so much Pakanohida....most useful. I appreciate your posting this info :-)
Ooooh, lucky you...NZ is such a beautiful country. We were there last year when the horrors of Christchurch happened. We were supposed to be in Christchurch two days after the quake hit. Sadly, we...
We did have a tomato growing in a shady spot recently....somehow, it had self sown and it did fruit. Not a lot, but it's still on the go. That is my reason for asking the question about growing...
We live in Perth Western Australia....very long hot months....fairly good rainfall at times in winter. Temp range between low 30's up to 'sometimes', low 40's in summer.....low to high teens in...
I was looking at an article just recently where a gardener found growing capsicum in the shade was quite successful. I have a narrow strip on one side of our house....a pathway and a 2 foot garden...
We'd love some chooks, but sadly our garden is too small to have any. A large part of the garden is under paver's, which I'd like to get rid of...not too sure about my husband...I meant getting rid...

Thanks S.O.P I think I'm willing to try turning my compost more regularly....I will follow your lead....I need the exercise anyway :-)
Thanks for all the interesting reading, fellow composters :-) I've been learning a lot from all your interaction. I hadn't heard before that these extra, un-planned seedlings are called 'volunteers'....
The compost I put into my garden beds was a few months old....can't remember exactly how many. It looked great, but obviously I didn't have it hot enough to get rid of the seeds. Although I've loved...
The bins (I have 2) are round in shape and made from thick green rigid plastic....the kind found at Bunnings. It has a removable lid, and the base is larger at the bottom than the top. Easy to remove...
Thank you for responding, PurplePear & Pebble:-) I have built the compost using grass clippings, household vegetable scraps, pea hay, manures and blood & bone. When I turn it, I add some water as I...
Hello everyone out there :).....I'm turning one of my compost piles at the moment and there doesn't seem to be any heat in it. I have a good balance of all the ingredients needed and it's developing...
Well, that's interesting...I know that there must be eggs in my farm, because they've definitely multiplied....but I haven't seen anything like the photo you posted. I have to be up by 4am tomorrow...
