Hi I’ve been a horticulturalist by trade for many years I started growing veg in back yard with Grandmother and Father who at the time was head hort at Brisbane botanical gardens later became superintendent for Brisbane and some of the smaller gardens run by botanical gardens as teaching aids , so my question is what’s growing in you veg patches and on your fruit trees , at the moment here in tassie winter is fast approaching , we had a great spring summer autumn crops salad greens , tomes, corn , ect ect , I’m my yard I have apples , pears , peach, apricot,and this summer started on the citrus trees ,oranges , lemons ,limes ,about to plant out mandarins, tangelo and blood orange . We have chooks to free range in the little orchard,ducks are next just finished up the start of there coupe , we are totally organic in this system I’ve been a certified organic farmer for many years and will always grow our food in this way , we have the same types of pest to deal with but I always tell my kids at least out pest bugs are eating organic so they must be tasty to the good bugs that we attract to the I call it my Farden farm garden , I come off a very large property of 9000 acres my wife says you can take the boy from the farm but can’t take the farm out of the boy . I’ll get outside in a bit to take some pics maybe some of you will do the same , in this trying times I think food and water security is paramount.....

Sounds like a proper a real good thing u got there od i wish I got into horticulture way back but I only got growing about 10 years ago and I will grow till I get that watering can prised from my cold dead fingers peace ps i dig the war is ugly is that u roy i know he says that on dread in a Babylon top album one of the best ever 80s I think the music of our art is roots music which recalls the history and the judgment that is to come presenting Misty in roots 1979 Rasta best live album ever it was John peels fav as well just thought I would chuck that in not that any one is the least bit interested never mind I’ll have to go get some new things for me a little bit of weed should sort me right out peace out

100% dread is that period of reggae music and also England contributed to the great music with lovers rock and gained the respect of the Jamaican people which is a great honour for sure started in the West London area round Acton neesdan i used to live that way for a good while good days and I mean that it was the best time for me i was 20 in 86 so much of my growing up was in the 80s funny times in the 80s lots of racial tension and all that bs very uniform oriented people all had a fashion i was a skinhead by the way not a racist one i was into my reggae music big time it was mostly a load of idiots who were in the mix not welcome by the majority of the people who were at the gigs and I went to a good few of them peace hope to talk more to you

So when you are outside how many harvests are possible i grew out side a couple of times but they weren’t the best thing is the weather is not reliable enough to be able to do the same thing as a indoor garden i would love to grow out side of course inside as well your weather is gt isn’t it i have some family members who have emigrated to Australia not sure what part but jimmy said when he came back to England that he would never think about moving back to England again he absolutely loves it out there he has visited that one and only time fair play good result for the whole family sorry im rambling on this is not a all of our yesteryears forum peace

No probs here @Cypress66 - I like shooting the shit too. Was good listening in - I love my music but am completely ignorant about reggae, beside Bob Marley of course.
