And then your message and of course e-mail green fingers at b.b.c. Dog u.k. Good morning Ray Lawrence what can we do for you it's got to be from Dad and me so I live in council property and it was a decent garden before a next door never moved and if you just stick with it and it's slim and she what stops remain and it's. Got It's about date and it spread to the other what the other got at the others that. It's nearly the same I just want kind of power anything on it to get rid of it right so so her grass seed has ice human I mean the grass clippings won't wrote from the streaming and things so is it is it grass seed that's come over the fence or the hedge if you show the pail and on the fence. And you can write sex tended to Mitt Romney. Well the wind blown it right. I mean I mean point would be best in your front garden front garden like is it best saw oil is it is it or delays or is grass on so now yes yes so what I would do the best thing would be just to how do because if it's reasonably young grass it will come up it will come up very quickly if you did use a weed killer and the problem with weed killers is if you've got other plants near you can end up killing the plants you want as well as if you want to get rid of there's nothing you know I don't know plants in that regard I was going to pull. Stuff down sister always coming at them along the top of it you know remain right oh yeah I mean if if it's young grass you can still do that so if you. If you if you're going to put down some gravel what I would do is get some weed control fabric and it's not expensive and you can get it at garden centers or do it yourself shed and it's like putting down thin carpet underlay. And you put that down and and then when you put the gravel of the shale on the top what will happen is that that will keep all the light out in the grass will just die so I wouldn't if it's young grass if it was an established on we wouldn't do it but if it's just some grass seed spilt on everything then I would do that yeah it's amazing how similar spread the say that now and yeah I mean I mean the streamers themselves the the bits of grass that they clip off don't wrote but I guess I had. I mean it might be just that it was a wind sprayed. Grass seed when she was sowing it it would be unlikely for it to be the strimmer that would be doing that. But but I think I think if you put that weed control fabric down and I mean it's I don't know it's kind of a fiver or a tenner or something like that is not an enormous amount yeah. And if you're getting it and it's quite thin and you put your thumb through it just put down 2 layers you can put the gravel down and then if you do if it any grass seed or anything comes across and it starts going in the gravel I use boiling water carefully just go over where the weeds are with boiling water so if you get any in the gravel you can get rid of them. Ok. Barrel in how ones who are good morning Barrow. Hydrangeas is that right. Ok. Back because the field we. Are Saying. Yeah. Right so it's the rain is just beaten it down yes and it. Literally. Everybody look at. Where. They're looking a bit even the really nice ones are looking about or to me at the moment so what I would do is if is it one of a kind of big muck pads ones with big flowers yes. I was. Really. Right so that the problem is that if you prune that back hard then it won't flower next year you know well certainly saw Celeste we left. And really blown. You know almost Yes So if you leave it this year now what we what we do in April we prune them so April is a month and what we do is if you got down on your hands and knees to look at it and you can to the number of staff. In April we would take out a 3rd of the oldest of the floppy ists stems and we take those right back down to the ground so if it was 9 stands we'd take 3 out all the way back to the ground we take the floppy asst and the rest of it you said would be planted should spring back down on us then listeners there's a lot more. Yes. 18 stems is still the same we're taking a 3rd. By number so if it was 18 you'd take 6 out. Well now and then I will fly when you see them out. Right get right down to the ground so the ones that were grew moving were cutting right the way down to the ground and we leave the other ones alone because if we short out well you don't. Know not to tell because if you touch those then they won't flower next year. Like Still suppose in some of the old flowers still we. Already have both yes we leave them then yes and those old flowers protected over the winter. And they they just protect the little buds at the bottom of the flowers so you've got. A need we can get him. Off Yes so a 3rd of the stems out so one in 3 of the stands you cutting right the way down to the ground and I would take off when I'm doing that I would take the ones that annoy me most so the one to the floor. Well. Yeah. You get when you walk past and think Yes So take those ones. Right down to the ground and then if you think about it if we do that every 3 years we'll have replaced everything what way there is if we take a 3rd out every year after 3 years we'll replace the whole Bush that keeps it young but it also means it still flowers barrel I hope that really helps you out thank you so much for your call there are barrel in hell about hydrangeas and hydrangea bush 20 past 808000 double 65959 that's the telephone number. Can I trim my roots back us all now or do I need to wait till spring I ask seeing in Britain I mean it's not a plant that we particularly prune at all it's it's called the sumac tree and I mean there are there are a really really nice tree I mean I don't think there would be a problem with giving it a little bit of a prude but you've got to be careful that you don't spoil the shape because the shape of them is one of the reasons why we love them that's when it has this kind of woolly bark it's sort of a koala bear of a plant. And if you're not careful you can as I say spoil the shape and everything but I don't think they'll be a problem with giving it a prune back or to give it a print back. Period in the winter when it's not too frosty it's just about to do its autumn color things you might want to wait until it's done that before you prune it so you enjoy those lovely leaves Ok that is a lovely plant are complex for myself but it sounds nice right let's go to Scott thought because she was waiting patiently for us good morning Sheila good morning to you both how can we help right you had a lady ring in last week about. Their gated holy having real pursuit of berries not so all that that's like mine I had so many berries but what made my Israeli prick was Doug said that the trade. Harvests the holy Pryor Well pride Christmas and keep it in a coal still. Can I have a go. How still but we could build you a cold storage. We might have to demolish a house but we could put up a really nice big cold storm that would work nicely yes. Some people do is say that my garridge is similar and if you have no no windows so they would it would be in the dell Yeah but. I mean it wouldn't be a problem for a short while. Do you have a shade that's got a wind oh yes I have a shared and if you've got a shed that's got a window and is quite cold then that would be a good place to put it because you could just cut a few branches and put them in a bucket with plenty of water and then just see. And see if you can get it because it's what I would do as I would white until you start to see the birds attacking it because once the birds start to eat the berries that would be the time to go and cut a few branches off so you've got them for Christmas before the birds of munch them all right starting to eat some. Power accounts are already Yes so that's fine so they're on the power counters the moment you see them coming to the Holly then then cut 2 or 3 bits off the holly in a bucket in the shed near the window and just see if you are able to get them to last you know because if we think about if it was a middle of October. And we were able to keep them in a bucket for 4 weeks then with the middle of November then we're almost starting to think about Christmas wreaths and things where. It's cold if it's cold in the shed then the Hollywood get to the outdoor temperature but it's. It's not you know it's not like a heated room because what we're wanting is we're wanting the holly not to grow we want it just to sit there and do nothing. Those things get back you don't see only Yes Yes Well that is it lets us know how. And why we are always prepared to demolish the house I'll send Blair around because he's good with the digger thank you very much patio doors are his speciality Yes yes I do I mean smash patio door Thank you Sheila All right thank you bye bye Take care bye bye there we are so you don't know thank you for that So just remind me with the patio door. I know what I'm doing I don't need any help and then just remember what happened after well I only smashed one side of the double glazed glass so when I see that it's barely that barely counts all I did was I just made it single glazed Yeah I don't see is a problem and a piece of kitchen tile or a cling film over the yes the broken bet and it was good as new well I mean actually all I did was because it toughened glass it just crazed so I made instant frosted glass which I could see in it was very clever and that's why you installed the shower because it looked like a shower screen then didn't it. Yes I think I think we'll leave out that I don't have a freshness yet the author of we're running away with ourselves. 826000 double 65959 of no a day while I was going anyway Danny said with the support thanks by morning host McCown felt his side had an off day after 3 nil defeats Huddersfield the Tigers conceded 3 2nd half goals at the Johns missed stadium we were not from the 1st you know how to survive on top of us we played into their hands a bit our game plan was in the play and I let them press as we wanted to play over the top of it and were frustrated by that we felt that if we were fortunate the commit no no half time where probably want told me in the 1st half of any note they were on top of us for the whole game which is frustrated me like it's one of the fake insects it's a big bump in the road for us it's brought us back down the earth very very quickly we're going to move on. It's got a stoppage time equalize It's draw to all a Plymouth manager Paul has felt both teams could have won but it feel like we had you know some really good spells in the game and we had chances at 10 where we could have been the team ahead and then you know knows what my about and I just really played with the players it was an excellent performance with the team probably a couple a lot not a minute for a while people still carrying some not and they got through it and never gave it to me certainly it is a point I probably have to watch. A lot to go on some very good football player teams Plymouth for so we showed that we're more than capable of playing good football as well going to town conceded a stoppage time goal against Mansfield to lose one nil the visitors had a man sent off after 60 Minutes but still won the game tumbles Michael jolly felt his team deserved a result for performance was good overall for the better for most of the game certain 1st half that was better side after the sending off that comes in and made it difficult for us and shots for straight as which they did to the end were trying to win the game and of course if you can't win the game you need to make sure you don't lose it. We didn't deal with the end we're very disappointed with up in the Premier League James Milner scored a late penalty for the leaders Liverpool is a bit less the city to want to Anfield to make it 8 wins for mates Milner says it was one of the most important penalties he's ever taken in a time when it was last minute I want to make I'm going to take the wrong go and you know a lot of time you say now probably. Going to top pair of games and also up and running successful so we want a lot of boys and quite a lot mention just to dictate and find a way of cannot result dog American on Monday at 3.20 in the Premier League there were victories for Brighton Burnley Aston Villa and Crystal Palace Meanwhile what for in Sheffield United drew nil nil in women's football England's poll of form continues the Lionesses lost to want to Brazil at the Riverside Stadium in Middlesborough to extend their winless run to 5 games England's manager Phil Neville wasn't happy with how his side conceded both goals he got punished for 2 lots in concentration in the 2nd half when the game should have been dead and buried by then we kept going right to the very end our play was time I thought was some of the best play for a long time and now we're in that period where things probably aren't going far as that maybe were going for us 12 months ago and we've just got to stick together and believe in what we're doing is right overseeing care will face a trip to North America next year after Toronto was part one promotion to a beleaguered Super League to beat 1st emerged as $24.00 points to 6 to win the 1000000 pound game last night the wolf pack out to conform 64 down half time for seeing kava believe played just Hodgson's due to become one of only 3 from the city to appear in Australia's n.r.l.
