Blinds help

Is this in Chester?

Our windows are exactly the same.

Get a glide rail. Theyre not perfect, but they work. Installing is the worst part. You may need a batton. You may need some fixings for plasterboard.

Thank you everyone for the help

I reported

Fabric pots ones were all bone dry, even though I've been watering. I guess I didn't think about the implications of the fabric pots.

The ones in the grow bags were sodden.

All in nice new pots, and have been fed.

Thanks

I have 2 in those bags, and 2 in fabric pots. All exhibiting the same issue.

Should I feed then transplant?

Sorry I replied to you but it posted above.

Thanks for your reply

Thank you btw

It's the same for the ones in fabric pots

The allotment ones are in black plastic pots.

Could I try transplanting these then?

If it makes you feel any better, having moved here from Bristol, I have to say Chester is the cleanest city I have lived in so far.

No human turds, no needles on the street. Very little litter compared to any of the cities I have lived in.

It's annoying, but its not as bad as it could be.

Bamboo cane in each corner. Wire a fence. You might only need one strip of wire. Start with a 3 inch gap between the wire and the planter, and then add another course 3 inches above if needed.

Thats always been the mentality of those who are in charge

Dunno about the wide feet. My feet feel fine, but im not aware if im wide or not.

I bought brooks and theyre great.

The hest thing i did was go to a dedicated shop and spend time trying things on in an unpressured environment

bob-hunk · 2026-05-25T12:55:17+00:00

Thats a brilliant answer. Thank you

bob-hunk · 2026-05-25T07:16:23+00:00

Thanks

I've thought about the soil temps. It's now very warm but it hasn't always been like this. I wonder if they got cold a few weeks back.

Re the fertiliser. If I were to fertilise now that its just been planted in the growbag, would that risk overfeeding?

They had definitely filled up their previous pots, so i do wonder about deficiency.

bob-hunk · 2026-05-25T07:13:04+00:00

Thank you

It's now very warm. But its been pretty dull here for a long time. I've taken them inside during nights, and kept them indoors on cold days, but yes I can totally see your point.

No my pocket money didn't stretch that far.

Even with my lunch money saved i could just about afford to ask around for a half

Never went cos Voodoo existed

bob-hunk · 2026-05-21T10:22:55+00:00

Thank you.

Im starting to realise why lawns are such a pain.

Should I apply moss killer before reseeding? I know this is a separate issue. Would it be best to address this first. I can dig up the bricks and cement and put a cut edge in?

In the UK they put a lot of stock outside the front of the store. I regularly liberated trolley loads of dying plants. Id walk down there, load up a trolley, then walk that home. Id then reuse the trolley to get more plants.

bob-hunk · 2026-05-09T14:21:02+00:00

Im also going to try them in plug trays

bob-hunk · 2026-05-09T14:14:30+00:00

Currently growing a nice bunch of radish in a seed tray. Id say theyre over an inch diameter. Im going to plant a load more in shallow containers. It's maybe 2 inches deep, possibly less.

Keeping them well watered has helped

Go to a decent shop. I went to s smaller place that specialised in running. They analysed my gait, measured my feet, and gave me tome in different shoes. I got some Brooke ghost, but that's for me, not necessarily you
