I was wondering if anyone had been watch the big dig on sky.
I was watching last night and one of the guys were using rubarb leaves for feeding has any tried this.
I knew some one that used nettles for the same thing

I've watched the Big Dig many many times. I like it, because it's the only program entirely about allotments.
I mentioned to Terry Walton (Rhondda Valley Allotments) that he should get his own program. I also listen to him on the Jeremy Vine show on Fridays.

Be nice if they did a new series, it's not just the gardening I like the 'characters'.

Watched it dozens of times and will do again. Listened to all Terry Waltons podcasts.

The rhubarb spray is not for feeding, it's used as an insecticide, butterfly deterrent.

Sow it, grow it, eat it.

Will it keep cats of the plot as well?  I've watch several times as well.  Its a great program and heartly agree that a new series would be great.

I've seen it many times, and would also welcome a new series.

The chap in Highgate who makes the chairs has written a book which is rather good - "close to the Veg"

Hello Mrs Soup and welcome to A4A.
I've read that book also... a good read  :D

You'd have thought given the millions of TV channels there are now that someone would do a veg growing show of some kind, allotment focused or not. I know there's loads of gardening shows on UK TV Gardens (or whatever its called) but none of them focus on veg growing which seems a shame....

Any chance non-Sky viewers can watch this via the internet?  I've just finished reading Terry Walton's book and it's piqued my interest...

Thanks!
