re rasberries: plant seeds east to west so plants face south for best sunlight

Thanks KTmoomoo? Still abit confused. Is it OK to put them on west facing fence with no shade apart from until the sun pops over that fence at about 10 ish? Then will be in strong sunlight for the rest of the day?

have bought 2 x canes

yes rasberries be ok there xx

PAEONY qusetion kt..

need to dig up and move 2 paeony from a garden into pots...

how and when?
please

oh yay! you will get bored of me, kt. i am keen but clueless beginner.

have just spent a couple of hours digging over and replanting asparagus heads (hopefully) properly this time! (much more detailed instructions on back of newest packet of heads)

wish id known i couldve asked you in the first place!

Q - i have 16 little sweetcorn plants ive grown from seed in the plugs in the greenhouse. i want to plant them in a group rather than a line to make best of wind pollination (heard this on gdnrs q time) but how far apart do they need to be pls? 10 inches all around ok?

also they (like all the veg) are going into raised beds filled with topsoil and a thick layer of rotted manure, all of which cover either hardcore or fairly clay soil, depending on which bit as it used to be a rose gdn)... do i need to dig the manure right in? its been on there for a couple of months.

peony:you move between november and feb, put in full sun , dig round most of roots they not like roots disturbed at all

sweetcorn; between 8 and 12 inches apart and dig manure in lightly with a fork

Kt, how did you become sooooo knowledgeable?

btw I only have one sunny windowsill so I guess I won't be growing many courgettes!

< Hi, Cat >

Kt, if one has a pampas grass does it indicate that you may be a bit of a.... swinger?

hello KT, what should I do with the daffodils once they've stopped flowering?

Do I pull them out. Or should I just cut them to the ground?
