Farmlab

If you can see this photograph then it should mean I've finally got to a point where I can upload pictures.

This picture is of a school art project in Venice, L.A. The basil smelt divine, it was the best use of a car I saw in that crazy motor-driven town.

    Hi Alys
    You can now upload pictures. The picture has nothing to do with food miles then.

    Hi Alys

    6x and Groworganic Natural Fertilisers are very safe to use on all fruit and vegetables as they are oven heated at over 250 degrees C. and do not compare with farmyard manure as previously mentioned in blogs.

    Why does the fact that the products have been heated to 250C mean they are safe to use. I can understand why they will be free from weed seeds and disease but as far as I know heat doesn't kill chemical residues. I would be really happy to be proved wrong.

    Our Green Lane website has reports from people who are fairly convinced that commercially bagged manure substitute and compost have been the source of their contamination.
