Re: Worm casting tea as fertilizer

I'm sorry to sound rude but you really need to look into it a tad more & read some case studies. I myself have a wormery at home & it is 100 percent organic, I know exactly what goes into it & I look at it under the microscope everytime I harvest castings, the same goes for my home made...

Re: Worm casting tea as fertilizer

I don't go anywhere near chemicals & have no idea why people touch them to be honest. I think the words you are looking for are organic vs in-organic. Worm tea, compost tea, nettle teas, homemade fish fertiliser all contain chemicals. One major difference is that you know what you get in an in-...

Re: Unhappy snakeplants? I didn't even know that was possible!

Blooming Sansevierias are not pure joy. Those flowers are a sticky mess. Also, I think the spike is terminal. Meaning that the rosette will stop growing, but will/might send out new offsprings.

Re: Cacti for sale in Europe/Scandinavia- were do they come from?

Tempting but I am not sure if its legal to buy live plants( not seeds) from Sweden to Norway? To legally get it into Norway: You'll need a phytosanitary certificate, the shipment must be registered at the Norwegian Food Safety Authority, and you need to get the shipment inspected by an authorized i...

Re: Pestcontrol without the ‘heavy artillery’

My current cure for everything is neem & soap. And occasionally some ethanol. I've never tried predators on pests, but I kind of like the idea: "So mealy, do you think you are tough? Well, meet my new friends 😈". I think I will consider that the next time I get some. So far I haven’t f...
