Good grief! Whatever is the matter, Judith? What Helene said was perfectly
sound and I took it the way it was intended.

As I said, I was told what the plotholder (supposedly) did by his neighour,
who may have got it completely wrong, but I do intend to ask the man
himself.

In the meantime, I thought that it would be interesting to find out what
others on this newsgroup thought about it or might have some idea as to the
proportions involved and if they did anything similar.

There was nothing wrong with any of the answers I got, including Helene's -
and it was my posting so if anyone had the right to complain, I did. But I
had no need - Helene thought it was mad - so, what? What's wrong with that?
It probably is!

So, Judith, what do you thiink of the idea? What would you suggest? Let's
have some constructive criticism and forget what's happened. I don't want
any flame war or anything like that - I like to get on with people - but I
don't like rudeness. It's totally unnecessary.

Regards,

John

Hi John. I wouldn't put in one bucket growmore, nettles and OM
altogether - EVER! Sounds really mad and I can't imagine what would be
the right amount for each.


Why does it sound really mad? - just because you "can't imagine" the
proportions to use does not mean it is not a sensible idea.
Perhaps you should suggest to John that he tells the old man on his
allotment that he doesn't know what he is doing and that he should
stop and do things "your" way - despite the fact he seems to be
getting fantastic results.- Hide quoted text -
