Slugs and coffee
I've decided to follow up on the idea featured a few weeks ago on
Gardeners World which showed the new lass using coffee grounds as a slug deterrent. Yesterday I collected half a carrier bag of spent grounds from our local Wetherspoons (which they were delighted to give away and offered me a couple of barrow loads a week!!) and have scattered it fairly thickly around several clumps of Hostas....we shall see. As I said to my wife, its worth the experiment, even though I felt reluctantly duty-bound to down a few jars of beer, purely as a show of appreciation, you understand Strange, she didn't believe me !! pp. |
