Lesley Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 ....and migraines - at least it's nearly over for this year. We have Hemlock - which looks like cow parsley - we couldn't keep on top of things last year when we moved in and we ended up with 7' hemlock everywhere - and it seeded We had someone here with a strimmer for 5 hours on Saturday - and 7 hours yesterday - and he still needs to come back - it will not seed this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 (edited) My friends dad who is a passionate allotmenteer (he is in his 70's, has 2, and helps a couple of "old folks" who are probably younger (edit) than him, with theirs) goes round spraying anything which has seeded with hairspray to stop the seeds scattering when he pulls them up. Swears by it![/i] Edited May 9, 2007 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louise Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 God don't remind me I have to think about the annual ragwort pull in the feild next to the garden I clear it every year but because the council do nothing it still comes back from seeds evry year It's not my land but I don't want it in the garden and there is a stable down the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
