TROUGHS

<< < (2/14) > >>

David Nicholson:
I shall read with avid interest. My attempts at making troughs, so far, have been an abject failure. Am I the only one who was at the back of the queue when DIY skills were being handed out? :-[

Lars S:
That looks beatiful ! It gives hope for my too-shallow-trough  ::)

Maggi Young:
Lars, you will soon  see that Ian has made some very shallow troughs.....hope this will be of use toyou!

Lars S:
Yes Maggi, I am sure it will be of great use.

One thing I did wonder a little about though, was the soil in the trough that was displayed in the Bulb log. Is it correct that Ian used only sharp sand ? It seems to me that it would take a lot of watering in the summer  ??? 

Lars

Maggi Young:
Lars, the theory is that watering will be provided mostly by condensation  in the crevices ....I am sure Ian will explain more in coming logs.
