Re: Advice for a hopeless gardener
A few questions for onion growing preppers, especially Jansman... I have a bed just for Egyptian Tree Onions as recommended by Jansman. They are pretty well established with about 10 growing plants.

A mate of mine came to see me yesterday. He works for Severn Trent and told me that the forecast will be causing all the water companies to be careful of leaked piping. They are obviously concerned about the poorly people where the water has been contaminated. :( 17.000 houses in Devon caused that ...
