Amaethon Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Super Fruity! Come and get it, slugs! Been making a few slug traps for the GG plot. It's a matter of using what's to hand. These have lids to keep out some of the Welsh rain. Also heard that beer is not required - it's the yeast that attracts them - so they'll be filled with a mix of yeast, sugar, flour and water. I'll let you know how it goes. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cashmere Moments Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 (edited) Slug collar and a 9v battery/copper wire electric fence around each of my pots , seems to have worked outstandingly well this year. First time using them, looking flawless so far. Had the collars on for about a month before I set the fences up around the edge of the pots, so they got a chance to prove themselves on their own.

DutchFox Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 (edited) wild life is afraid of fire.....so found a product in Germany ...there is extensive wild life there......it cointains smoke aroma.....and tried it with succes....if i could still smell smoke i did not put extra on a it....i apply it on some piece of cloth and let is swing near the plant on a stick approx 50 cm high https://www.duenger-shop.de/Vergraemung/Wildabweiser/Wildabweiser-Arbin-500-ML.html https://www.duenger-shop.de/images/product_images/info_images/neoarbin.jpg ================= got my eye on something like this....should work also and is cheaper... and still can use it in the kitchen Edited November 5, 2020 by DutchFox 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchFox Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 (edited) anti slug: vaseline mixed with ordinary kitchen salt. cheap and effective. copper tape fades away in 1 year....i found it to be expensive and not realiable.

Downsouth Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Has anyone ever had an irrigation line like a long run of hosepipe to and around a plot? And any issues with rabbits or voles chewing at it? Planning on leaving it out all season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guerilla Blue Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Has anybody ever had any problems with being discovered from the air? Not so much drones, but police helicopters? We get a few round our way. Any tips for disguising from above? We’re going to plant in a more natural fashion ie not in rows but more scattered around the plot. We are not turning the whole plot just digging holes and planting, will will also loosen up and add coco etc to the soil around the holes so there won’t be lots of disturbed earth. I can’t think of anything else really that will not cause shade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Small numbers, randomly scattered, holes not beds - good to go Also, it's bloody hard to spot a grow from the sky so you'll have nothing to worry about. I've grown near a domestic airport before (500 meters away) with no stress 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
