Just got back from town.

Was in B&Q and discovered "Rooster" chicken pellets ...
£2.63 for 7 kgs

Oh and 3 little cyclamens for 50p each.  Did well today! ;D

Are they chicken pellets that you feed to chickens or one made from the stuff that comes out the other end?  :D

If its the latter then a trip to bee and skew is in order...

Yes, I think so.  Don't be tempted to use too many and only during the growing season as they are plant food  :)

I was thinking of broadcasting a bit all over my onions.  If the smell is anything to go by they should grow out of the ground nicely!! ;D

I only fed my hunions on chicken pellets when the bulbs started to swell in spring  :)  Just a light sprinkling
