Looking for some help and advice growing dwarf apple trees, my trees have a green powdery substance growing over the bark and haven’t a clue what it is? or how to get rid of it?
Also looking for the best fungicide to use on them that would be safe and tips on prunning them!!
I just don’t know how far to cut them down.
I need to build some raised beds this year and have no idea how to do it. Where can I find clear, easy plans to get this done?
Ok, So I did a soil test it yesterday. Can anyone help me with the results?
It was a home test kit by Ferry Morse.
The results are pH:Acid,
Nitrogen: Low
Phosphorous: Medium
Potash: Low
Ok, So what does this mean for my garden?
Thanks in advance!
Now I need to know how large the indoor plants need to be before transplanting them to a large outdoor pot. I have cayenne pepper plants and heirloom tomato plants.

This is for a friend who has inherited an old VW pick-up truck and has natural green fingers (as far as window boxes are concerned). She wants to try out being a gardener for a living, with the truck and a few basic tools, but she knows very little about the UK market.
What is involved in being a self-employed gardener? Are there any resources/ organisations she can take a look at? And what are the different types of gardener (eg, Landscape gardener surely does big-scale stuff, but doesn’t plant flower beds, etc etc).
Is there a good book for beginners or a relevant UK class at night school that’d help?
Thanks a lot!
Like a website where you can put in what you need in a plant and it will tell you what is most suitable. Eg. Shady, creeper, not too much water. And the website tells you what sort of plants fit that description?
I’m looking for detailed information for a variety of common flowers and plants. Including pictures and information on how to care for the species.
My mother and i were gardening outside when she ripped out a small plant which we were covering with weed block. We discovered seconds after that it was a bay leaf plant. Is it possible to regenerate the plant by putting it in soil and adding some special formual to make it grow roots i’ve seen it done on a gardening tv show before. I just can’t remember what they did.
