[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 8052897, member: 718"] My father pestered me to put more phosphate fertiliser on for 45 years until very near his death at 91. The fact that I fairly regularly test the soil and apply fertiliser as necessary and have done all the calculations and application since 1975, when I was 17, and that when asked how much should be applied he had no answer, made no odds. I had 40 years of him banging on incessantly for six months of every year about fertiliser when he didn’t have the slightest clue as to what crops actually needed. In latter years I never told him anything other than it was 20-10-10, but even that didn’t stop him criticising. I had long come to the conclusion that he wasn’t actually commenting on the fertiliser but me. Nothing I did was ever right with him. The net result is that I miss my old cat more than I miss him. Rant over. [/QUOTE]
