So, Tell Us, What Are Ye All At In The Veg Garden?

Sounds an interesting one Just for a bit of fun really. I cleared a load of rabbits for a market gardener/farmer then laid some hedges put up a poly tunnel odd jobs here and there. They grew edible flowers and all sorts of strange plants fruits etc to supply up end restaurants , they would give me plants to try. Cheers Arry -

Been growing this strange plant "Strawberry Spinach" can eat the leaves and the berries look like strawberries and taste like peanuts. Cheers Arry -
Nice show that worth the effort. Got a feeling going to be a bit lean year us very patchy. Also its so mild the hedgerows are not dying back. Cheers Arry

Last of my rain bows. Still got a few ordinary one left. The Purple Sprouting is getting bigger and bigger lifting the netting off the hoops. Took the runner beans down, also as my Tomatoes were coming to an end I took a shoot off one of the Sun Gold plants potted it. I stopped it at three trusses which now are full of fruit whether they ripen or not we will see but thought it was worth a try. Cheers Arry -
Oh and as for an App I have a JCB brick of a phone I break them. If I had a iPhone recon I would fold it in half. If I take a photo on it its about the size of a postage stamp. Lol Cheers Arry

I agree mate but with out holding them and smelling etc etc hard to tell. the "Charcoal Burner" is a "Russula" so you are right. Some of them lower ones could be dodgy maybe the "brown Roll Rim" and the "Fools Funnel" both poisonous. Cheers Arry

A good site link i use. http://www.wildfooduk.com/mushroom-guides/ Two good books. Field Guide to Edible Mushrooms of Britain and Europe by Peter Jordan. River Cottage Handbook No1 Mushrooms By John Wright. Cheers Arry

Second one down looks like a "Charcoal Burner" edible have a look in the mushroom post. Third one down looks like "Saffron Milk Cap" edible BUT it has a poisonous look alike called the "Wooly Milk Cap"so I would leave. Eighth one down an old "Bolete" and the next a "Puff Ball" edible if it cuts white as South Hams Hunter says. But before eating any please please get a book I recommended some in the mushroom post and don't eat any thing you are not sure of. Cheers Arry

Once did some hot pickled small button mushroom, very addictive. Myself and a pal ate a hole jar spearing them with cocktail sticks while drinking whisky one Boxing day. Cheers Arry

My wife's booked in for radical hysterectomy on 23 October ,so going to cover it up much as possible till spring,I put some well rotten chicken manure down before I covered it so hopefully the worms will pull it down in. And the rabbit will bugger off elsewhere if there's nothing for it to eat. Best wishes to the wife on that mate. Cheers Arry -
When I see her I alway think the Muppet Show music is going to start. Cheers Arry

You'll be dragging your ass across a dewy lawn in the morning. Lol Cheers Arry

Turnstones at ST Ives Cornwall I was amazed these normally shy wadders are like feral pigeons running around under peoples legs and across in front of cars. Cheers Arry

So many say that if you're not in it for the money you're deluded... I could work twice as long, and move and earn twice the going rate but all this would pass me by. It's a cliche but I'll take the quality over the quantity any day and I'm glad I figured it out when I did. So so right. A beautiful morning went foraging in some woods a bit fresh and very autumnal. My mate and myself often stop look at the view and say you can't buy that. We so appreciate where we live and how lucky we are so many people don't. Cheers Arry

Visited my favourite tree only to find a hornets nest in a hole in the trunk. As I get blood poisoning if i get stung by a wasp thought I give the old tree a miss this year. Cheers Arry

Went to an old Chestnut tree I visit most years to forage a few nuts, gave it a body swerve there was a nest of these Hornets I think. Cheers Arry
