Sue Ardern commented on Debby Lockey's blog post 'Dying apple tree'"Hi Debby,
If the ground around the tree is very dry, or you have parched grass there, I think regular extra water might help.
Is this affecting all the leaves or just extremities?
What type & size is the tree and have you pruned it lately?

Hi can any one give advice. The leaves on my old apple tree (may have been planted in 1907) are turning yellow and dropping off. I'm guessing its because of the cold winter/dry spring. Does any one have any advice as to how to save it???? Thanks Debby DebbySee More

Great idea and great day (apart from nearly losing my welly in the mud and learning how to surf on the wooden boards I'd put down on the paths/rivers).
Really hope they will take, and can't wait to sit at my allotment and pick some pears and apples.
Great stuff

Also my leeks in their pots are beginning to divide, but are still looking like threads - when on earth do I put them in the ground?
Hi everyone

Hi everyone, I've managed to overcome my fear of blogging (thanks Liz and Jonathan) so I can let you know how my seeds are doing:
I've put the leeks in small pots and at the moment they look like pieces of string defying gravity.
The chard went straight into the ground about 3 weeks ago and I can now tell which is weed and which is chard - the chard has red stems and the first leaves to come through are crinkly as you would expect. Now I have to think of weeding.
