Hope you still have your frames, Matt, in this somewhat inclement weather.

Seems that I spoke too soon! All is fine in the garden, nothing shifted an inch. However, about an hour after my last post we were struck by lightening. Without power for 8 1/2 hours and no landline phone or internet since and no prospect of its return until 7th January! Loving the excellent service were getting from BT...  :-X

Click on the orange Forum icon below the words "Scottish Rock Garden Club Forum" and scroll down to "Plant identification questions and answers" link. Click "New Topic" top right and make one on Liverworts.

Are  you are looking for a solution to a liverwort problem? I use Baking powder (Sodium hydrogen carbonate) Mix one teaspoonful with a little very fine sand, sprinkle it over the pots and water it in. Doesn't appear to affect the seedlings, well not here anyway.

Mel -  you could also try a search of the forum to see if the information you seek is already here . The search button to use is the one fourth from the left in the row of options  show a near the top of every forum page.

From such a search, for instance, we find there is  one thread with liverwort in the title :
http://www.srgc.net/forum/index.php?topic=4636.0   and two pages of results from mentions of liverwort in other threads, All sorts of remedies are mentioned - Epsom Salts, vinegar, potassium permanganate ( doesn't work for us!)  and so on .....


Also, as well as the official Help button which assists with general info on the use of this SMF forum  - there are more notes specific to the SRGC forum here : http://www.srgc.net/forum/index.php?topic=2.0

That's interesting, Michael. By the way, do you mean baking soda (= sodium bicarbonate), as baking powder has other things in as well?
