Hello,

Thanks for mentioning grass is able to grow on areas where there is scarce grass. I have now, thanks to your good mention of growing grass, put grass in the poll.

Can you please tell where the grass should be growing?

Thanks for your further help.

I've ticked the growing fish box:)
Seriously though, if you've got a sunny south facing spot, try growing strawberries, because they are ridiculously expensive in Tescos.:cool:
 
Thanks for giving useful information about grass growing vertically.

What does, "chooks" mean? I look up the word, chook on the internet to find the definition a chicken or fowl, but I am unable to find growing information for the chook. Where do you see the chook being kept and being grown?

I thought tea or coffee can be grown along as there is a decent amount of sunshine regularly. Why do you think we do not have the right climate for tea or coffee to grow?

Hello 7610,

Thanks for mentioning to grow fish.

What type of fish do you think given the area are able to grow? I live in South Wales and there is sunny weather usually in the summer and a frequent amount of sunshine throughout the whole year.

I think growing strawberries is good, although when you mention a sunny spot, there is not the same amount of sunshine in the summer all year round. How much sunshine do strawberries need to grow well?

Thanks for your help
 
Hello llamedos,

Thanks for explaining the meaning of the word, Chook now known as Chickens.

Where do you think the Chooks can grow in my garden and what type of environment do Chooks need to grow?

Thanks for the useful thread too.

They need a small shed to be shut in each night, away from predators(fox) and a couple of chicken can be kept in a small run, which can be moved about the areas where you dont grow anything, if left to roam in a garden situation they will dig up your seedlings, steal your strawberries etc, you can find them as POL (point of lay) ready to start laying eggs at loads of places now, have a look on Gum Tree or Preloved, or, there will possibly be somehwere local to you selling off ex laying hens, that will still be fit to lay enough for what a household needs.

Just google chicken pens/ chicken houses etc for ideas of the housing they will need.
 
Cannabis mate, buy all your veg .

I have no use to grow cannabis and people who have cannabis can get an arrest by the police and a fine of £90 as well as being taken to court when in a person possesses cannabis. In addition, cannabis is harmful to our health.

Marijuana has been found to suppress cancer, reduce blood pressure, treat glaucoma, alleviate pain and even inhibit HIV. It is an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective.

Do you think there is enough space for Chooks in a custom built shed and how many do think there can be?

I have taken a look, but could not find information about type of chicken, Chook. Can you please help to find the exact, type of Chook you refer to?

Can you please explain about the company preloved?

Thanks for all your help
