Chatting on the Plot / What defines an "Influencer"?
« Last post by AlaninCarlisle on Today at 14:44 »


These so-called "Influencers" keep popping up in print and social media. They don't influence me as I've never heard of them. The latest was a woman called Zanna Lee who was in a photo on yesterdays Times front page along with a Chelsea Pensioner in an article relating to the Chelsea Flower Show. Out of curiosity, I googled the lass's name and I'm no wiser other than she has a business in beauty products.

It begs the questions such as what defines an Influencer, who decides if they fit the title, how do you become one and do they make any money out of it?

14C and pouring down since late morning. The rain is actually welcome as I sowed beans and transplanted leek seedlings yesterday

Grow Your Own / Re: Slugs (again)

Another 75 yesterday and explored a few more places in the rain today and got 183. They really loved the clump of lupins I have, so cleared the rotting foliage from around the plants and picked lots off the plants themselves. Might even try planting some lupins as sacrificial plants to attract the slugs next year before dispatch. One at the end of each bed would be nice.

I’ll keep a close eye over the next few days as slugs will be very active in the wet weather and I’ve just planted out some tasty seedlings.

Raining steadily at the moment but heavy rain is forecast for later on. At least I don't have to go out and water mmy plants.
Same here. The trouble is I feel cold enough to put the c/heating on, despite already putting a winter cardigan on  :ohmy:

Morning all. Many thanks for the replies. I did edit my question last night & added at the bottom
that I didn't grow potatoes there last year. Once again thanks to those who replied.

Spent a good hour trying to get me petrol tiller going today, stripped it down, cleaned etc and it just don't wanna play.
It's like a right of passage  :lol: Don't forget to pass it on to the next person so they too can experience the joy of pulling the cord for longer than they need to use it.

It started to rain around 8pm yesterday and hasn't stopped since and it's only managed 12c.
