My no dig onion bed
« on: May 12, 2018, 22:03 »
My no dig onion bed is coming on fine, I've also sown a row of carrots in there as companion planting hopefully for smell of these onions to deter the carrot fly.🤞

Cheers, I tried nemaslug last year and lost quite a few crops through slugs, so went back to a light sprinkle of the blue pellets. On my home flowers beds I am trying the wool safe for animals pellets this year if they work I will use them on the allotment next year.
However I make no apologies for controlling slugs and snails ,I grow to feed my family!
