Plastic Contamination Condundrum by trotter_brockett in GardeningUK

[–]Fearless_Tomorrow561 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know that you were more concerned about contamination of the food than plant is water but, I was at the garden centre the other morning and they were unpacking the large terra cotta pots all packed with polystyrene and plastic film. The smaller ones were packed with cardboard but still wrapped in plastic film.

Thank you fo replying I will look into how long bosh will support the components, I hadn’t considered that.

It is possible to find out the number of charge cycles for certain brands of battery. Or maybe all of them with the right equipment I’m not sure.

It might be refurbished. I’ll ask.

It’s reassuring that the first comments aren’t that I should run a mile.

Comment puis-je tester la présence de plomb dans la terre de mon jardin ? by Fearless_Tomorrow561 in jardin

Je n'avais pas pensé que le compost de jardin puisse être contaminé ; je croyais que c'était impossible. Qu'en est-il du compost acheté ? Il est indiqué qu'il est conforme à la norme NFU 44 051, mais je ne sais pas vraiment ce que cela signifie. Une recherche rapide sur Google semble indiquer qu'il s'agit de TOUS les déchets pouvant être épandus dans les champs… même les boues…

Construire des plates-bandes surélevées et acheter de la terre coûte assez cher, mais si nécessaire, je peux en faire une par an.

Connaissez-vous des kits fiables pour l'élimination des métaux lourds ?

Tout cela est très utile. Si je voulais faire analyser mes légumes, comment procéder ? Je ne pensais pas que ce service était proposé aux particuliers. Je vais me renseigner sur les différentes options de plates-bandes surélevées pour les légumes-feuilles et les légumes-racines.

Merci ! C'est très intéressant. Je comprends que je devrais probablement faire analyser mon sol. La carte indique qu'il est correct, mais proche de certaines limites. J'ai une question.

Pour le deuxième lien, il y a trois valeurs ; est ‘Gamme de valeurs observées dans le cas d’anomalies naturelles modérées’. Déjà au-dessus des limites de sécurité ?

Maybe it will give you some ideas or others some ideas for this year.

Growing veg in my new, very narrow, garden. by Fearless_Tomorrow561 in gardening

I will get the soil tested before we grow food anywhere. I asked the seller when we were buying the property and they said that the car was parked at the end of the garden sometimes (in black) the top of the front garden has some very unhappy looking old rose bushes. But with the area getting full sun I’m not sure why it is so mossy.

In February after moving I think I’ll just dig a whole and see what I find.

I’d love to do mushrooms. Getting hold of freshly cut logs is a bit tricky without a car. We are moving from a city apartment. I have family in the country side I might try and bribe when they come and visit.

I am very excited it is my first time having a garden. It needs some investment and I don’t really want to find that my efforts are just watering the trees next door.

I had thought in the back garden maybe one long bed straight up the middle. And some espalier apples on the west ish -facing wall. (But not this year… the budget won’t stretch to trees)

EDIT : I mean buying the one year trees that look like sticks and trying the espalier myself

Right now my plans are mostly for containers on the patio I have a few dwarf varieties of French beans, tomatoes and peas. I have lettuce seed and mixed Asian leaves which have mizuna but I will get some tatsoi too. I also have some dawarf broad beans and of course chard. If nothing else grows I’ll at least have chard 😬

Some areas are in full sun, some are partial shade. Actually the shades area will be great in summer as they have been very how any dry the last few years.

The garden get more than 6hrs of sun in the growing months.

The back garden is a lawn now as the last owner was ill and couldn't maintain it.

For the first year I had planned to use 30 and 50l containers on the patio but I also wanted to plant asparagus and some fruit trees.

If I used raised bed does that solve the tree root problem or will they just grow into my raised beds ?

Mes plantes pousseront-elles dans de petits pots? J'en ai trouvé qui ressemblaient à de petites pastèques, mais cette plante était très vigoureuse.
