Gardening for some can be a bit ‘icky’, all that ‘mud’ and those ‘squishy things.’ Eurggh! Then there is an area of gardening that makes even the hardiest gardeners cross their legs. Yes, I am talking about wee. In polite society there would now be multiple scraping of chair legs on parquet flooring, a few dozen mumbled excuses about feeding the neighbour’s cat, then the slamming of doors and the screech of tyres. A few weeks later and you will get those knowing looks from people you don’t know who whisper about you having potentially exposed yourself in the garden.
We are all happy to talk about comfrey, even though when added toago giving a talk on straw bale gardening, and how if you get the bales in situ a few weeks earlier then needed, then soak them with urine, you will have bumper crops.
