Hi this is useful thanks. From what you're saying here you're not using green waste in the product. But if you're using only wood fibre, coir and composted bark then why is plastic being found in the bags? For example see this review - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tjJ2DHTGGh4.html
It’s a pity most if not all peat free compost atm the main bulk is now from brown bins collection and recycling centres so a lot of that so-called biodegradable plastic bags pet poop and branches etc no thank you
Ah very good, I love your videos. I have lots of tomato seeds that have shoot and I have just replanted into bigger pots. Greenhouse is prepped for a tomato grow bag . Love the idea of hanging baskets though!
It is truly the worst compost. It dries out rapidly, shrink s to a hard ball, and does not crumble. No idea what rubbish it's made from, just try it on a house plant. I threw the bag in the waste, don't want it anywhere near my garden
Absolute rubbish! Not to mention recent controversy with medical supplies found in compost! Do not support this company until they take accountability! 😡😡😡
Thank you for this video. As a new homeowner, this was very helpful. I have the substance and had to learn how to apply it. My lawn was green one day, and then two days later, all these dandelions popped up out of nowhere. 😮
I need the answer to your same question, too, TheTamrock2007 because my young plum tree has also leafed out! Can I prune now in late spring, since I cannot in winter?
OMG. Mine is rusted solid. He lifts the axle out with two fingers, pinky extended! I am pounding on mine with a ball peen hammer. Has that spreader ever had anything in it?
@@paulcarson5813 I could not salvage mine. There was nothing left and I was shocked at what it might cost to buy a new one the same. I ended up buying the mini - rotary version.
Wonderful video, too the point and enjoyable to watch. I am about to plant a Stanley plum. And it's leafed out already. Should I wait to prune it till next spring before it leafs out?
My neighbour has a demonic cat that never sh*ts in his garden but used my raised beds as a toilet. It also dropped dead animals in MY garden! I tried chilli but no good. I got 5 ultrasonic cat scarers. Expensive, but worth it. They work.
This was a horrible video. Just horrible! And I bet you have a ling for that down in the description huh? Get a commission. The RF thing doesn't work for "anyone" thinking of buying one. It's just a quick scam.
This video does not show what setting to use for a particular fertilizer application rate. Likely the most important thing... but video misses it completely.
What is he supposed to do? List every granular insecticide, fungicide, or fertilizer available? He’d be there all day filming, and we’d be here waiting until he mentions the particular product we are planning to use. The packaging of your particular product will mention which setting to use on the type of spreader or dropper you have.
Excellent video….two thumbs up. Was able to finally adjust my Scott’s AccuGreen 3000 Drop Spreader. I am happy to report it now accurately spreads the correct amount of fertilizer and lime.
I tried the peat free types No2 and 3 will definitely not be using for anything, put in the bottom of a raised bed, its terrible and really compact, i dont recommend the peat free shredded tree version. But the normal stuff is just as good as always
Here's 3 100% effective ways of stopping cats crapping on your yard. Those who let cats roam don't love animals, don't have any respect for their neighbours and don't care about children's health. If you love cats, see if you can address all the points I make in this post. If you hate cats crapping on your yard, you'll also learn what to do here. Some of the methods included here may not be legal where you live, but if you want to avoid; the inconvenience and terrible smell of cat crap, the risk of serious illness (blindness and death) to your children caused by Toxacara Cati, cat scratches all over the hood of your car and also help save the lives of the billions of beautiful song birds, butterflies, amphibians and small mammals that are cruelly tortured and needlessly killed by well fed cats every year, then you need to take action to eliminate the cat immediately. First and foremost, all animal lovers should email the government and ask them to change the law regarding cats. Cats are pets, but they are also pests and as such, cats should be kept indoors and not allowed to roam freely, in the same way small dogs are not allowed to roam freely. If a small dog crapped on a cat owners doorstep, listen to them complain, but they allow their cat to crap in your yard! This double standard has to be stopped and changing the law, is the only way. This will help the environment, save birds lives and help save children's lives. At the very least, cat owners should be made to clear up their cats mess from your yard, or, you should be able to charge them for your own time, or that of a company employed to clean up their cats mess. If they refuse to pay, then legal action should be permitted. This could also save cats lives, as many cats are hit by cars or are shot every year while trespassing and nobody wants that. The condescending cat loving Vlogger in this video, obviously has no idea of the terrible inconvenience and pain a roaming cat can cause. It would be so nice to dump a years worth of her cats crap on her lawn, maybe then she'd understand... Cat owners also like to boast about cats having 9 lives, I wonder if they've ever considered the number of lives or serious injuries their cat has caused , while using up its own 9? To understand the risk roaming cats cause to road safety, simply Google 'driver swerved to miss cat' and look for the news report where the 7/11 owner from Milwaukee, swerved to miss a cat in the road and killed the teenage girl in the approaching vehicle! It's all well and good for your folks or a driving instructor telling you never to swerve is an animal's in the road, but for too many people, it's instinct to swerve in order to miss an animal, so cat owners should also be responsible for any accidents their stupid feline causes. Your Google search will also reveal hundreds of other reports of serious accidents all caused by drivers swerving to miss cats, cats that should not be allowed out of the home. Less seriously, a neighbours tom cat was spraying on a friend of mines fence and the smell was disgusting, it also left large wet pancakes of obnoxious smelling feces in the borders all around his yard, where his daughter and ours played and had planted vegetables! When our daughter developed a fever and swollen glands, the Dr's first question was do we have cats! Following this, my friend took action using one of the steps listed below and the cat poop problem promptly ended. Rest assured, you can be certain that a cat owner would be extremely angry if your small dog crapped on their yard every day, and yet they think it's fine for their cat to piss and crap on yours! This double standard is wrong, regardless of the law. For this reason it's important to understand that roaming cat owners are ignorant, inconsiderate people, they hate you, they hate your kids and they hate all other wildlife, possibly even cats. If they loved their cat, surely they'd keep it permanently indoors,,, as research suggests the average lifespan of an indoor cat is 12-17 years, whereas the lifespan for a roaming cat is only 2-5 years! If they really loved their cat, surely they'd want it to live as along as possible and wouldn't allow it to roam around the streets putting it at risk of being stolen, injured by another animal, or killed by a passing vehicle! Lastly, roaming cat owners are selfish people who should be responsible for paying for the removal of their cats crap from your yard, or the damage the smell/damage they cause to your cars and fences, but sadly, currently the law can be on their side, so you must be stealthy and avoid being seen if you intend to follow any of the steps listed here. First and foremost, if you want to be upfront about it, do a Jim Carrey (from the movie Me Myself and Irene) and drop trou and crap on your neighbours yard,, your crap on their yard, their cats crap on your yard, what's the difference? Alternatively, if exposing your ass isn't appealing, video the cat crapping on your yard, put the crap in an open box and knock on the owners door, show them the video, let them smell the crap and politely express how unhappy you are about it. Suggest they keep the cat indoors if they love it, as too many cats are killed on the road! Only use the above method if you don't intend to take any of the following steps. 1. Send an anonymous letter to the cat owner telling them their cat is crapping on your yard, lawn, your vegetable patch, or where your kids play, tell them how bad it smells and you are concerned for the health of your child, and ask them to keep their cat where all 'pets' should be, permanently indoors. Tell them if they do not comply, you are going to take further action and the consequences of that action will be their own fault! This is a fair warning and allows the roaming cat owner to take responsibility for where their cat craps and if necessary save its life. If the cat owner doesn't appear to comply, go to step two. 2. Collect all the cat's poop in a box, ensuring you wear gloves to avoid finger prints and don't include any pebbles or stones that could incriminate you, write a note saying "this is your cats poop", and once a week dump all that stinking crap all over the cat owners door step. This is only fair as it's their cat, it's their cats poop and it may help them to realise how unpleasant it is for you, before you are forced to take extra measures. 3. Coax the offending feline into your home with a tasty mackerel, put a cardboard box over the cat, put in in the trunk of your car, drive out into the country and let it loose. Ensure you're not seen by anyone. If cat's love to roam, you will be helping it, surely freedom is a far better life for it than captivity? 4. Fire rocks at the cat using a slingshot, it's silent and will put the cat off completely. 5. Shoot the cat. This should be a last resort as you risk retaliation and criminal prosecution, as the cat owner cares more about the cat they allow to roam the streets, than they do about what that cat does to your property or the serious health risks its crap present to your children. And finally cat lovers, consider this, do you care more for the small feline that you allow to roam around the streets unprotected, than you do for the lives of the homeless, or the millions of starving, sick children around the world? Because collectively, cat owners squander 'billions' of dollars annually on cat food, cat insurance, cat collars, flea treatments, inoculations, vet bills and cat treats etc etc etc. Consider all the good you could do if you donated all that cat money to a homeless person or a starving family in Africa, instead of squandering it on a pointless pet you rarely see, an animal which kills hundreds of song birds every year, craps in other people's yards and causes other people's children to suffer a terrible illness. If you don't care that your cat stinks up other people's yards, at least care for starving children who deserve to live much more than a cat!
