😁 Depends on the type of chlorine used in the water and that depends where you and what water company you a lumped with. Chloramine is harder to remove and needs filtering out, chlorine typically is fine after 24 hours or if you use a sprinkler. It's an inline system so it clips into some standard hose fittings.

Water to get the chlorine out. Filtering water for the garden seems to be rare here and not everyone has a waterbutt which is also weird. The carbon filters aimed at the garden market are carbon encased in plastic. They work but you end up overpaying for the carbon and having to throw the plastic casing away every 6 months and then there is potential leaching from sun exposure. Ever drank water from a sun exposed hose on hot day...yeah not good.
Also there is micro plastic everywhere so even though its only a small amount I don't really want to unnecessarily contribute to more of it. So I have been working on throwing together a stainless steel one it seems to working pretty well overall at the moment.

I don't respond to your questions because I don't want an essay to write every post and most are frankly are not in the slightest bit relevant.
What the hell does rents and income have to to with you calling a man a racist for highlighting child abuse?
It was you who threw out the initial accusation and now your implying I am a liar without evidence again. 🙄 Name a specific lie I have said you won't find one because I haven't made it up.
The evidence is in the enquiry. Look up what the testimonials is it in a court of law is regarded as evidence. You want facts and figures for these people being dangerous compared the general population it exists.
You want a case studies of a migrants coming and abusing children here you go:

There are many more two of these are not so far from where I live so I glad you don't have to suffer this. But by ignoring this and not looking in the mirror you will create the racist you claims to oppose.

Your back to semantics again. Just because migrants includes anyone that moves across a border isn't the people we are talking about here. You possibly think I am anti migrant ( am not anti my wife and my friends thanks) I am not I am explaining the country is full and people it's advisable for people not to come now until the ones that don't fit in are gone. After that once some sense of equilibrium is restored smaller appropriate immigration is fine. It's also the position of the guy you called a racist and claimed the testimonial accounts of thousands of abuse victims including children must be false in because it's a political stunt. I believe what I believe due to court cases along with facts and figures that show certain migrants populations are an issues. Just because your country possibly has a sensibly immigration policy based on skills and appropriate visas ( like we used to have when there were seemingly little to no issues) does mean it equate to what is happening here now.

What because I said crossing the border illegally is a crime when it is or because I said people would have to stop coming in . The first is true and the second is a direct consequence of the first was ignored for so long. You need infrastructure for a country to work you probably don't know know all the rivers here are horribly polluted, there has been a housing crisis for 30 years road falling apart now etc . Supermarkets and mobile phone providers estimate there some like 90 million here in a country that basically designed for 50. I think it 1.2 million net that came in a year recently you can't build infrastructure that fast nor should we have too. When do you say stop? The arguments for mass migration never deal with reality particularly by people who never see the reality of the situation.
You know how I would fix the issue if you want these people to come here as an intervidual you have to sponsor them and put them in your house or rent to them a place your responsible for them, if they commit a crime that's on you. Then the state can't take from people who want to get on with their lives and the people who want to help have to pony up and take responsibility for thier ideas.

The worst treated are probably the Vietnamese who rank also fairly high and sadly a lot of them died needlessly in a lorry one year. You don't tend to see a lot of them around here in actual day to day life because when they are illegally imported they are usually dragged in slave labour working in extremely dodgy illegal cannabis grows.
Crossing a border without a border is a crime you can debate wether it's fair but it is a crime. Here it's not like you can do it by accident because of the sea. You have to put quite a bit of effort in to breaking the law.
Not sure if I care what the Albanians with there people it's not really our problem.
I think they are planning how to do it. First step would be to dissallow people coming in. There are far too many people here anyway.

No one's going to deporting Muslims because they are Muslims. There are even Muslims of Pakistani origin in Reform calling for mass deportations and they aren't going to be deporting themselves are they. The reason they are called mass deportations is because there are lots of people here illegally, some are doing illegal things or just being a net drain on the state or just failing to achieve basic things to integrate like learning to speak English. In a functioning society they wouldn't not have been let in the first place. One year the largest national group claiming asylum arriving on small boat was from Albania. There is a no war or genocide etc going on there which is why people go there on holiday. Guess who runs the drug trade in London now and has the largest prison population in the U.K? I think removing people who exploited a system and should never have been here in the first place is far from immoral.

Your open to the idea. Well read the enquiry instead of running it through a ai summary it says there are white people and Sikhs doing the similar things but the vast majority are Pakistani Muslims. If you ask the Pakistani Muslims they will tell you it's a small minority from a certain tribe who gives them a bad name.
Here all these people can vote because they are members of the commonwealth, we can't vote in their countries but they can vote here. Everything is slanted in their favour from a political point of view that most ordinary people are fed up. If people arent deported it will lead to worse you are against that because you think it's hateful. Well if you research how long it took to deport Mr hook for an arm actual terrorist Abu Hamza you might find out how stupid the system is here.
If you are against deportations perhaps you should be petitioning them. Pakistan has been deporting Afghans for years. India deported my Anglo Indian neighbour from when I was younger and are still deporting Myanmar Muslim last year. Please go bother then about being hateful when our tolerance is spent.

You seem to be missing a large part of the police/ local government corruption narrative going on.
Your not taking into account the police in some cases turned up and did nothing and in some cases arrested the victims like in Rotherham. So the police and authorities have been biased towards victims and therefore there aren't necessarily reports because they saw no one faced any justice.
Rupert has been talking to the victims and getting through first hand information from them. That's why it doesn't cross reference.
In all honesty I don't think he's listening to survivors of abuse to further his political career this seems to be a narrative spun by the media who were calling his supporters neo Nazis the other day. To be honest I wouldn't want to listen to this stuff all day, I doubt he does too but views it as a duty to help these people. He was an independent MP when he started it too.

It's Restore not Reform doing this. Reform said they would and didn't bother.
If he's done his own research which he has, how is a AI model going to fact check that? The premise you can run that through a model and spit out a result to dismiss it is ridiculous.
Plus a lot of the so called fact checkers or sources of fact checkers are funded and endorsed by the government, hope not hate being a key example. A organisation proved wrong many times but still held up as a so called 'credible source' by the media and government.
The end of the day you can pretend it's not happening with ai and half baked propaganda or you can actually listen to some of the victims of these crimes. There are interviews with the victims of these crimes if you have the stomach to listen

Oh bollocks, I accidentally used my seemingly pointless degree in product design without realising.
Want to know how to make this garden water filter from standard parts and never pay for a plastic piece of crap again. You can also also fill and refill it with whatever filter media you like. Perhaps it will be funny to open source the design with you all.
Let us know if you find it interesting, also let us know if you have a lathe and are in the U.K.

I have loads of potentially toxic plants to cats here. I don't own a cat but they all still come here and hang out. I use the toxic ones near places I don't want the cats to crap on like woodchip paths and raised beds. They still walk past these plants but don't hang around. I think a lot of these plants are only really bad for them if they consume them which and the scent warns them of.

Thanks Keith. So EM is effective microbes which is a consortium of microbes that badically work very well together and is sold under that trademark. The three main microbes types in them are yeasts, lactic acid bacteria and purple non sulphur bacteria though there are other bacteria in the mix too e.g the Swiss cheese bacteria and miso/sake etc fungi.
If you using labs and have your own worm castings your going to be getting most of that hopefully you have some yeast coming from one of your sources too. If you ferment your own alcohol or make kefir that can be an easy way to add it to ensure it there for your plants.

#Organic gardening vs synthetic
Lots of box caterpillars around again this spring. The ones in the ground were hit bad last year and I have been trying to get them to recover, but it's a bit of an up hill struggle as the soil there sucks and there isn't a lot of it. Yet again the one in the pot that I planted and has had biochar, local microbes from imos and EM from the start is doing great. I should really do a brix reading but I keep forgetting to bring the meter 🤷‍♂️

The reason for that is it can heal you so quick the skin can form over with infection inside and causing an abscess which of course is not what you want. This mostly applies to puncture wounds. You can use plantain instead for open wounds as it's not to potent but does the same thing or wait a few days/ use it diligently. That's why it's also good to add some calendula flowers too to help fight infection.
There have been a few times I have been applying to others or elsewhere not realising I got a splinter healed over. Try and avoid that too unless you want to get some practice in with a scalpel.😁

I chop it up add fat and calendula flowers and boil away(ideally a double boiler so it prevents it becoming deep fried comfrey). Seems to work regardless of the fat solubility issue.
Seems some people do an alcohol extraction. High proof alcohol is crazy expensive here though so I only ever use that for stuff that needs it like propolis.

You have stumped me that's exactly how everyone makes it but you right it's not fat soluble. It is water soluble though. I do use it fresh but also use like you have made it for winter. Still works regardless of not really knowing what going on here.

Primarily medicine, feed second. That's why I find the earlier stuff useful. It only goes away with the frost here so near you does it keep going all year?
Going to be using it to try to make a bacillus subtilus feed later as apparently it can feed on that too.

If you want your #comfrey way earlier in the season consider growing symphytum officinale too. Yes it seeds but it's not that bad especially if you have time to cut regularly.
I have been using it for well over a month now and the bocking 14 has barely emerged.

It's not the easiest to control but I can think of worse stuff. We used to have land which had sheep on it many years ago and it would grow on a matt of 3 inches of soil on a concrete base so might do ok in a pot or tray or fenced in with edging of some kind. You will have to make sure you keep hacking it down otherwise it will set seed.
See if you can find a patch locally before you take the hard option especially if you don't like getting stung.

When I used to work bottling apple and beetroot juice for a organic juice company we were subcontracted to bottle for. We used to have to keep a bottle of the batch aside for testing for residue of pesticides etc. So I don't think it's all fudged and fake.

As a general rule of thumb with a bit of research to see if it's toxic to people, if it's plant that makes people pissed off and swear a lot because they can't get rid of it usually makes an excellent fertiliser. A lot them tend to end up being medicinal to some degree too.

Great in compost but try it as a foliar and root drench too. Sorts out all sorts of disease and pest issues.

...twine, butterfly habit I have even made some building material out of it before.
It's also probably the best around fertiliser you can make if you aren't using it for that slap yourself in the face and start using it.

Keep adding biochar and you can grow anything, here I have had a blueberry in the ground for several years which shouldn't be possible on clay with limstone in it.

2026-03-22 15:34:20 UTC

Do the work buy some ph strips instead it costs pennies and takes the guess work out and will help correct some of the false assumptions in this chart. You might have alkaline sand or not acidic enough peat to grow blueberries for example. I have never had a problem growing rosemary or lavender in clay.
Infact my clay soil is on limestone so you might assume it's alkaline right? But in reality its slightly acidic.

I can think of other completely preventable issues proven by statistics that kill and harm far more people than that... Yet it's an issue they have done precisely nothing about for years.
