  • Kale with leaf miners and big fat slugs - well chuffed

    So I was pulling off brassica leaves - kale and PSB - with vile leaf miner tunnels in them, didn't want to put them in the compost because the little b******s might pupate in there anyway, sulking because burning seems like such a waste... and had the brilliant idea of giving them to my neighbour's chickens. Chickens see a leaf miner as a bit more protein, right? And then I found a lovely big fat juicy slug to add to the heap, and some of the edible weeds that the guinea pigs used to love, and now my neighbour's given me a bucket of chicken poo in exchange. How cool is that?! It's got plenty of straw in as browns for the compost and everything!

    As my Mum always used to say "Fair exchange is not robbery". Excellent result all round.
