As far as tips for growing locally, i would say the major problem for you will be slugs. after the extreme winter we've experienced there will be a breeding surge. In this situation, slugs can grow up to more then a metre in length ... and can be extremely aggressive once the food supply runs low. Once they have demolished the crop they will then, in desperation, turn on the gardener, sometemes with horrific results. They also bear grudges! ...... there have been several occassions when they have actually followed hortaculturists that have tried to eradicate them back into Llanidloes and savaged them in unprovoked and terrible attacks...Strangely, these have always taken place outside the National Milk Bar! Hope this helps, croeso cymru. x wow, you guys have worked very hard on that plot…and we’ve been there doing the same stuff in the past.
