O dear, its really started today, went to poundstretcher bought 2 patriot blueberry plants for £4 and a packet of Mushroom spawn to use on 6 bales of straw that have been out all this wet winter. The range also do cheap around £2 plants got a kiwi jenny from them last year.

 

Had a look at Aldi fruit trees at £3.99 each bearing in mind fruit is bought to produce not look good as a feature. These are excellent value and look healthy. Didn't buy as got all trees my garden will cope with for now.

Just waiting for weather now.

Nowt wrong with the budget store stuff, check regularly if you can, and get fresh early in season, I got Honeyberry, Aronia, Blueberry, Tayberry, Loganberry and the Kiwi fruit all at the range last Year, all are in good health. The prices are only what the growers sell em for. What you pay £6-8 for a 2 Ltr pot in a garden center for can be less than £1 from the grower wholesale!

I have never done hydroponic stuff myself Tony, does that me the fungi master is willing to forsake the full circle of life to yield food. Or do you just mean auto watering setup?

Bit early for me. Not doing them this year. My rule of thumb is chit them in the egg boxes until after april fools day then if ground conditions are ok plant them.
