Chuck them on and let them add their nitrogen. You can make a nettle
liquid fertiliser by leaving a bucketful to 'stew' in water for a couple
of weeks and then diluting it about 10 to 1 to water onto your plants. The
diluted feed is roughtly the colour of tea. It IS a smelly business so
put it somewhere out of the way of open doors and windows! I'm told that
a stronger dilution - if that makes sense - is a good insecticide but have
never tried it.


Thanks Sacha, I'll dig out the heavy-duty gloves and give it a try this
w/end.
