No, that's just half of it. There is another radish thread, I spotted. LOL.

and yes I have used 6X fertiliser

It is good, but does not have the organic bulk of 'real' manure

and a word of warning, watch which way the wind is blowing when you add it to the soil as it is quite light and you might go home with an unfortunate perfume  :lol:

I use it all the time and don't forget you can use it as a liquid feed too!

I use it when I've got no manure.  It's good stuff and you don't need much

Deffers to be used as a liquid manure!

Marvellous stuff, and we bought another bag on Friday.

Goferit...

No it doesn't matter.

Sometimes spray like this is used as a foliar feed.

Mind you, (sudden thought  :ohmy: ) it does depend how concentrated it is I suppose. A splash or two wouldn't hurt though

Somehow, I never like the idea of the liquid stuff collecting in the leek folds...

I've actually still got some brewing from last year, but a new bag has arrived now, so I may drench the new beds with the old stuff, and let it carry on compostulating there.
