Blackberry plants will not survive in the climate here.  They need the cold winter temperatures to, germinate, growth, and flowering / fruiting cycle.
 
They are also an invasive plant.. so if by some chance they did grow they would pose a serious environmental problem after the seeds were spread about by birds.
 
Easier to go the supermarket and by some frozen ones.
 
 
 
 

I got more tom seeds, planted enough for me, I'll pass them on to you on Friday but I doubt you will ever be able to plant them after visiting the village from hell!

Potatoes? You never told me about those grolls.

Hi djayz, what seeds you got? I don't think you will get blueberry to germinate unless you lower your soil ph to around 4.5 to 5.5.
Just happens I got some soil conditioner for blueberries just landed today, it's for me and a mate but I can spare a little if you want to try your seeds again.
I believe there is a blueberry variety called blueberry burst that is from Australia and is available in Thailand but I'm yet to find it.
Adding vinegar to your water before watering is also supposed to help in lowering soil ph and mulching with pine needles also helps.
Starting mine next week so I'll let you know how it goes.
It can take a while for blueberries to germinate.

Oh no!

If we can hang onto this it would be the biggest scalp of all.

As a self confessed BOF I have to say I do actually like quite a lot of today's stuff.
I just like, for my own amusement, to post something like 'first name WHO' just to read the almost instant responses from some of the younger posters who immediately jump on my post extolling the greatness and exceptional talents of of their favourite singers.
My dad used to do to me when I was younger and was always amused at my defence of the 'pop stars' of my day until I realised what he was doing.
 My dad has gone now, long time ago, so I'm just getting my own back and having my own wee chuckle at some of the responses.
Try not to take life and pop stars so seriously lads, some day, and sooner than you might believe you will be the BOFs .
To be honest I used to think Trans was a young whipersnapper disco singing whirling dervish. 
  

I'm almost 70 and go by the name of Old Croc, but It still surprises me to see the dinosaurs on this forum rush to print to proudly declare they have never heard of this or that, as if their lack of knowledge of the current world is somehow proof that all is inferior.
If I don't know about something, or someone, I look it up, so I don't come across as a silly old fool living my life in the past. (Doesn't always work!)

You've all never heard of him as most of you on this forum are stuck in a time warp. You all need to get off your computers and get out more.

Some rootstocks do much better with certain varieties..
I have a few which don't grow at all.
 
Grafting can be done when the tree is growing well pushing new leaves all the time. Best is to use parafilm or buddingtape, the buds will grow straight through it when they are pushing.
You need developed buds though, wrap them in film and graft on the rootstock/tree...in full sun is no problem.
 
Best is to prepare the scionwood, cut the leaves all off, wait some days for the leaf-ends to drop, wrap it in parafilm/budding tape and graft it.
 
The tape is the trick, it has to be soft so the buds can grow through it...if you use another film you might need to help the buds getting trough if you see them swell, then you make a small hole in that tape so it can get through.
 
 

Sheryl have you thought about a thatched roof? Would fit in nicely with the style of your house.
You can't beat a good thatch!

Cobbler, hi.
Do you have any photos of your 100 avocado trees? Any photos of the grafted trees your talking about? Are your trees fruiting?

I find it hilarious that those attached to lesser performing teams lower in the table jump in here and attempt to stick the boot in because manu has lost one game, Mourinho is a season behind most of the (contending) others when it comes to team building so "still" running 2nd is quite an achievement.

 

In this particular match the ref ignored some hard careless challenges that many other refs would not have tolerated, Pulling - Pushing - Charging with no attempt on the ball, that sort of football might be ok in the lower divisions - it should not be tolerated in EPL

Of course it should, football is a mans game, too many fancy pants puffy footy players now adays. Town came out and hit man u hard and they didn't like it...... Bunch of over paid puffs.

Busier here than the Arsenal forum...just saying.

Arsenal?

Yes thanks rice555 and drtreelove I will look at Netafim now. I've been using the SuperProducts but not for long and to be honest it's working very well for now but I would like the micro dripline.

Well done Huddersfield. A huge scalp that was. After a great start to the campaign, 3 losses and 2 draws in the previous 5 games, you must have feared for the worse.

Also there's different soil types around our place so maybe looking around the place trying to find something suitable then just stick my rod in!

Authority stamped on the weak Man U.... Ill post picks of the live game tomorrow.

Smashed by the might of the mighty Huddersfield town...........Good luck at home losers!

Pretty sure it will need lowering though for some things maybe not others so I'm thinking that starting off with the correct soil ph would be a good start. Never tested my soil before so something new to try.

Can you describe what your trying to achieve,your very vague.
