    If you have a star at the top of the page, you can unstar it and you should stop getting the alerts.

    One possible issue is that the search function seems to only search for keywords in the body of the posts and doesn't search using keywords in the title. Which is daft. We remember threads by their titles.
  • I'm trying to find out what to do when gooseberry plants have been defoliated by sawfly. I can see loads of questions but no answers...
    I think you burn all fallen foliage, cut back plant and let it regrow in spring. bear in mind you may not have much fruit after the pruning. Maybe some new plants would be an idea. Best to remove the critter at first signs, dont spray.

    Not just this website.  The search function on BBC Food and BBC Good Food have deteriorated markedly in recent weeks tho in the case of BBC Good Food it was after an "upgrade" to the site and its functions.

    Google it will have to be in future.

    Oh thanks, @Fire . Alas, I have unstarred it several times, but it doesn’t seem to want to stay that way... perhaps I need to save my settings or something.
  • I need to know if I can use water from a water butt which has a yew tree hanging over the roof from which the water collects. Is the water likely to be too acidic or alkaline for young plants?

    These are teaching threads.  You will do better to click on ‘new discussions’. And start your post from there.
