Solitary bees

One of many solitary mining bees digging nest holes in the lawn at the community garden.

If you see these don't worry, they are good guys, not aggressive and good for the soil, improving aeration.

They're not aggressive like yellow jackets or hornets. You can tell the difference from the hairy mane, hairy legs and wings crossing over the body.

Pallet collar HugleKultue beds

​

I've recommended pallet collars for making raised beds and I'm adding some so I decided to create a photo record of the process I've followed

They are stackable and I chose to go three tall with these, others I have for shallow rooted plants are only two deep.

I pre-assembled them so I could apply wood treatment. The outside is treated with Ronseal forest green wooden fence preserver. The inside surface with food safe PVA diluted 2:1

After assembly at the final location i built up HugelKultur layers. The lowest layer was reclaimed timber from heat treated pallets cut up with a reciprocating saw. Layered in a alternating directions.

Then three layers of clean old cardboard from boxes, tape removed, covered with a layer of green garden waste and another layer of cardboard. The top layer is just soil. I had some lovely loam so I didn't need compost.

These are mainly going to be growing my winter veg and tomorrow I'll be putting in some cauliflower plugs. Probably some winter onions and beetroot next week. Around Oct/Nov I'll put in my garlic.

I'll post an update in a week or so when planted up.

Call for tougher action in Hull over illegal e-bikes

They've also been tearing up and down Beverley Road all summer

Any sunny day they are out, even doing wheelies in front of Humberside police cars who ignore them.

IMHO Humberside police should do the same as the MET do and apprehend them by knocking them off with patrol cars.

I don't know who are the worst, them or the spice heads. 🤷‍♂️

Neuter your pets, says Lincs Ark charity hit by cat 'crisis'

A few weeks ago I commented the same point.

That they were inundated at this time of dumping kittens on animal charities was not a reasonable application of responsibility.

Stop using Evri

Almost all package sent by Evri has missing.

It's obvious that they are being stolen and they don't give a hoot. Every enquiry is gobbed off by their ai chat box

AliExpress should stop using Evri

East Yorkshire charity urges people to check for hedgehogs

Think of all wildlife in these conditions

Not only the hedgehogs, but the birds, frogs and toads. Fledglings often hide in brush. Birds, Hedgehogs, frogs and toads need access to water. These are all gardeners friends eating pests like slugs and snails.
