Keeping your grass seed safe from the eager appetites of birds is a challenge that many gardeners know all too well. These feathered visitors, while delightful to observe, can make short work of your newly sown lawn before it even has a chance to sprout.
Addressing this issue requires thoughtful solutions that protect our avian friends whilst ensuring your garden’s growth remains uninterrupted.

Why more UK farmers returning to RED CLOVER
There are a growing number of farmers now seeking to reduce the cost of production by using less fertiliser and by reducing the amount of purchased feed. It is predicted that many dairy, beef, and sheep farmers will choose to grow high clover leys and adopt a lower cost production system. High Red clover leys require little or no nitrogen fertiliser and Read More
White Clover can be problematic when it comes to establishment. Spring establishments are always by far more successful due to the improved root development and the improvement in the root bacterial colonisation.
Most problems occur when clover is drilled too deep, the grass emerges first then when the clover does manage to get through it is shaded during the early stage of development by the grass crop above. As modern Read More
IDIPLOID v TETRAPLOID RYEGRASSES
A normal (diploid) ryegrass has 14 chromosomes in each cell. A chromosome is the part of the cell that carries all the genetic information about the organism. By treating the cells in tissue culture with a natural chemical extracted from the autumn crocus (called colchicine) the number of chromosomes is doubled to 28. This effectively doubles the size of the cells (increased sugary contents) creating a Read More
