Feed ‘em with Roundup….

Nah seriously, when you are liquid fertilising the whole garden, give ‘em a splash. And chuck some pelleted chook manure around them from time to time…

That’s what I thought…but my SIL has bought potash to feed them and had looked up a website that told him to feed March, May, June, and July. Luckily I thought to ask him where the website was from…it was UK.

Knew I would getter better advice here
