I've got residents, 47 00:02:21,495 --> 00:02:24,415 Speaker 4: spiders and my wing mirrors and the cars which be 48 00:02:24,495 --> 00:02:26,615 Speaker 4: a testing they to how slow am my driving is, 49 00:02:27,215 --> 00:02:31,215 Speaker 4: And so I don't want to put spray in there 50 00:02:31,255 --> 00:02:34,095 Speaker 4: and kill them because of poor things become a spider. 51 00:02:34,255 --> 00:02:36,415 Speaker 4: Drove goes in there, I will kill the thing. I'd 52 00:02:36,455 --> 00:02:38,935 Speaker 4: rather stop than going in the first place. And I 53 00:02:39,015 --> 00:02:43,055 Speaker 4: tried wiping peppermint oil in there on the end of 54 00:02:43,095 --> 00:02:46,335 Speaker 4: a handy towel and they just asked if I had 55 00:02:46,335 --> 00:02:48,735 Speaker 4: any chocolate chops to go with it, and they're stilled 56 00:02:49,175 --> 00:02:49,495 Speaker 4: for them. 57 00:02:49,455 --> 00:02:54,095 Speaker 3: They're quite happily, it sounds like it. Yeah, have you 58 00:02:54,135 --> 00:03:01,335 Speaker 3: ever tried doing some vacuum clean with a vacuum cleaner? 59 00:03:01,455 --> 00:03:03,775 Speaker 3: You know, one of those little that gets into that 60 00:03:03,895 --> 00:03:06,255 Speaker 3: system too, because they get into it with their website, 61 00:03:06,335 --> 00:03:06,775 Speaker 3: don't they. 62 00:03:07,815 --> 00:03:11,735 Speaker 4: I think I did try a vacuum cleaner up there 63 00:03:12,415 --> 00:03:15,455 Speaker 4: on my other car, but think sooner or later, and 64 00:03:15,495 --> 00:03:17,895 Speaker 4: it's normally sooner. They just they just come back anyway, 65 00:03:17,935 --> 00:03:19,735 Speaker 4: And I think, well, if you're not bringing back and 66 00:03:19,735 --> 00:03:22,895 Speaker 4: they're unsucking the poor guys out of their home, and 67 00:03:22,975 --> 00:03:25,535 Speaker 4: I'd rather not kill spiders all the time, you know. 68 00:03:27,375 --> 00:03:31,255 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no, I totally agree with you, And to 69 00:03:31,295 --> 00:03:33,855 Speaker 3: be quite honest, yes, but if you if you've got 70 00:03:33,895 --> 00:03:37,295 Speaker 3: a lot of these websites literally doing something like your 71 00:03:37,295 --> 00:03:40,295 Speaker 3: mirror and start to you know, really reduce your vision. 72 00:03:40,775 --> 00:03:43,055 Speaker 3: I think there's something you will need to do. Is 73 00:03:43,095 --> 00:03:47,295 Speaker 3: there a way of having some sticky stuff that you 74 00:03:47,335 --> 00:03:49,175 Speaker 3: can put in the area where they can get in 75 00:03:49,895 --> 00:03:52,935 Speaker 3: you know what I mean? Yeah, go on? 76 00:03:53,175 --> 00:03:55,855 Speaker 4: Sorry, So with a wingerror, you've got to get you know, 77 00:03:55,895 --> 00:03:59,335 Speaker 4: the basic the mirrors are adjustable within their housing, so 78 00:03:59,375 --> 00:04:02,415 Speaker 4: you've got that gap all the way around there. So 79 00:04:02,655 --> 00:04:04,735 Speaker 4: I mean I could wipe something around. It's just something 80 00:04:04,735 --> 00:04:07,655 Speaker 4: that they really don't like. I could something I could 81 00:04:07,695 --> 00:04:09,855 Speaker 4: wipe around, as long as that's not going to deteriorate 82 00:04:09,895 --> 00:04:11,695 Speaker 4: the plastic on my relatively new car. 83 00:04:12,255 --> 00:04:14,335 Speaker 3: No, I don't think that would be the case. But 84 00:04:14,335 --> 00:04:16,495 Speaker 3: but what would be good? You will be driving the 85 00:04:16,575 --> 00:04:20,335 Speaker 3: car mostly, won't you. Yeah, So it's a matter of 86 00:04:20,735 --> 00:04:23,055 Speaker 3: just doing it once see if that would work. But 87 00:04:24,055 --> 00:04:26,655 Speaker 3: I reckon that's one of the ways to go. Another 88 00:04:26,695 --> 00:04:30,095 Speaker 3: thing you can do is put something literally that in 89 00:04:30,175 --> 00:04:33,575 Speaker 3: that opening in some way. You know, something that. 90 00:04:33,575 --> 00:04:38,215 Speaker 4: Is particular sticky stuff that you can recommend. But there's 91 00:04:38,255 --> 00:04:39,495 Speaker 4: something they really don't like. 92 00:04:40,455 --> 00:04:44,015 Speaker 3: Well, there are some really good sticky materials that you 93 00:04:44,055 --> 00:04:47,295 Speaker 3: get from bindings and all that sort of stuff that 94 00:04:47,295 --> 00:04:49,815 Speaker 3: that will stop them from going in there. There's no 95 00:04:49,855 --> 00:04:52,535 Speaker 3: doubt about that. Especially if you put the non sticky 96 00:04:52,535 --> 00:04:54,895 Speaker 3: side on the outside. They can walk on it, but 97 00:04:54,935 --> 00:04:55,695 Speaker 3: they can't get in. 98 00:04:58,655 --> 00:05:03,295 Speaker 2: You mean, also leaves you with like a research around 99 00:05:03,335 --> 00:05:04,615 Speaker 2: the winger and all the rest of it. 100 00:05:04,695 --> 00:05:07,535 Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, Yeah. 101 00:05:08,375 --> 00:05:10,375 Speaker 2: I hear what you're saying, John, But I just wonder 102 00:05:10,415 --> 00:05:13,535 Speaker 2: whether a little bit of spray and the fact that 103 00:05:13,655 --> 00:05:15,855 Speaker 2: spiders aren't living in you it's not going to upset 104 00:05:15,895 --> 00:05:18,615 Speaker 2: the ecological balance of the night of the entire planet 105 00:05:18,655 --> 00:05:20,615 Speaker 2: if he gets through the spiders out of his cars. 106 00:05:21,775 --> 00:05:24,415 Speaker 3: On that level, it's not. But i'd like I like 107 00:05:24,455 --> 00:05:26,055 Speaker 3: the way you're thinking about it. It's good. 108 00:05:26,255 --> 00:05:28,775 Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely, Hey Bernie, good morning to you. 109 00:05:28,895 --> 00:05:32,015 Speaker 5: Yeah, good morning, Yeah, very word. 110 00:05:32,975 --> 00:05:35,415 Speaker 3: Hello, it's rude here. How are you hello? 111 00:05:36,535 --> 00:05:40,175 Speaker 5: That's Bertty here. I'm just threwing up regardian my nice 112 00:05:40,175 --> 00:05:43,455 Speaker 5: green lawn. Who's got some nice brown little pictures from 113 00:05:43,495 --> 00:05:46,695 Speaker 5: my little doggie running around on the lawn. It's called 114 00:05:46,655 --> 00:05:50,295 Speaker 5: a high pH And I'm just wanning if there's anything 115 00:05:50,815 --> 00:05:54,335 Speaker 5: better than all the bits and pieces are under worn 116 00:05:54,375 --> 00:05:55,135 Speaker 5: to be treated with. 117 00:05:55,975 --> 00:05:58,135 Speaker 3: These are these are holes in the lawn where the 118 00:05:58,295 --> 00:06:01,495 Speaker 3: grass is died. If you like yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, 119 00:06:02,095 --> 00:06:04,175 Speaker 3: so I'm going to I'm going to have a really 120 00:06:04,255 --> 00:06:08,255 Speaker 3: amazing guess. And the guess is that your dog that 121 00:06:08,575 --> 00:06:10,095 Speaker 3: does that is a female. 122 00:06:10,895 --> 00:06:13,415 Speaker 5: Yes, there's definitely a female. 123 00:06:13,815 --> 00:06:16,095 Speaker 3: How do you How do you think? I know that. 124 00:06:17,095 --> 00:06:20,255 Speaker 5: Because someone has told me it. That's normal and a 125 00:06:20,335 --> 00:06:22,215 Speaker 5: female dog that does that. 126 00:06:23,055 --> 00:06:26,095 Speaker 3: Yeah, because a boy dog goes, you know how, they 127 00:06:26,135 --> 00:06:28,135 Speaker 3: lift up their leg and they do it a little 128 00:06:28,175 --> 00:06:30,655 Speaker 3: tiny one and then they move on. So that usually 129 00:06:30,655 --> 00:06:33,535 Speaker 3: doesn't do any damage at all. But if you're if 130 00:06:33,575 --> 00:06:35,775 Speaker 3: you're a female and you just really need to go 131 00:06:35,815 --> 00:06:39,735 Speaker 3: and you go like I'm going now, yep, that's it, 132 00:06:39,815 --> 00:06:42,615 Speaker 3: you get such an over over lot a lot of 133 00:06:42,735 --> 00:06:46,415 Speaker 3: stuff that Yeah, no, that's what happens. Look, that's all 134 00:06:46,455 --> 00:06:49,175 Speaker 3: it is. It's a matter of getting the dog to 135 00:06:49,215 --> 00:07:00,575 Speaker 3: go pee somewhere else and yeah exactly. I used to 136 00:07:00,575 --> 00:07:03,015 Speaker 3: have a dog called Rollie, and Rollie would really laugh 137 00:07:03,055 --> 00:07:03,455 Speaker 3: about that. 138 00:07:03,535 --> 00:07:04,055 Speaker 6: I think. 139 00:07:06,335 --> 00:07:07,975 Speaker 5: I think my dog's wanted to be near. 140 00:07:08,855 --> 00:07:11,615 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, But that's that's the thing, and that 141 00:07:11,775 --> 00:07:14,695 Speaker 3: is that can be tricky. So it's either away from 142 00:07:14,735 --> 00:07:17,415 Speaker 3: the lawn or things like that, or take them out 143 00:07:17,455 --> 00:07:19,415 Speaker 3: for a walk and then we get it all down 144 00:07:19,575 --> 00:07:20,055 Speaker 3: somewhere else. 145 00:07:20,095 --> 00:07:23,895 Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, I've been trying all sorts of things with 146 00:07:24,055 --> 00:07:27,455 Speaker 5: it and every other and it's just yeah, once I 147 00:07:27,535 --> 00:07:30,095 Speaker 5: get it so right and it goes back to normal again. 148 00:07:30,175 --> 00:07:34,535 Speaker 5: So yeah, you go working process every day. 149 00:07:34,335 --> 00:07:37,175 Speaker 3: I'd say, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, there you. 150 00:07:37,135 --> 00:07:41,015 Speaker 2: Go, all the very busy Bernie much appreciated Peter Lemon trees. 151 00:07:42,055 --> 00:07:46,735 Speaker 7: That's right, high rude.

When's 155 00:07:58,375 --> 00:08:02,375 Speaker 7: the best time to do that? And the problem is, 156 00:08:02,815 --> 00:08:04,895 Speaker 7: I'm pretty sure that I'm going to cut off a 157 00:08:04,895 --> 00:08:10,055 Speaker 7: lot of you know, a lot of lemons, little lemons. 158 00:08:10,455 --> 00:08:12,815 Speaker 7: But that's the way it goes.

It's very simple. Look, it's 163 00:08:22,375 --> 00:08:25,415 Speaker 3: don't worry about it too much because you obviously have 164 00:08:25,535 --> 00:08:28,775 Speaker 3: got quite a few fruit coming in there, which usually 165 00:08:28,815 --> 00:08:32,775 Speaker 3: developed in winter time, right all right, yeah, So here 166 00:08:32,855 --> 00:08:36,015 Speaker 3: comes to think, if you take off let's say a 167 00:08:36,055 --> 00:08:40,455 Speaker 3: third or a quarter of your branches now and a 168 00:08:40,575 --> 00:08:43,935 Speaker 3: quarter next year or the next time you go that 169 00:08:44,095 --> 00:08:48,335 Speaker 3: is in springtime, and another quarter a year later, you 170 00:08:48,415 --> 00:08:51,615 Speaker 3: are actually able to reduce your height of your big 171 00:08:51,695 --> 00:08:55,095 Speaker 3: lemon tree without doing too much damage on the amount 172 00:08:55,135 --> 00:09:04,455 Speaker 3: of lemons that you get in your Comparisodah. 173 00:09:00,655 --> 00:09:04,935 Speaker 7: Yeah, that sounds to the right solution. 174 00:09:05,175 --> 00:09:08,695 Speaker 3: So yeah, that's how that's how you use it. 175 00:09:09,495 --> 00:09:11,855 Speaker 2: Sounds like it becomes a timing issue, doesn't it. And 176 00:09:11,975 --> 00:09:14,895 Speaker 2: this is you know, this is me as I'm learning, right, 177 00:09:14,935 --> 00:09:17,295 Speaker 2: So I'm listening to you and I'm going with especially 178 00:09:17,295 --> 00:09:20,015 Speaker 2: with fruiting trees and so on, there's a right time 179 00:09:20,015 --> 00:09:22,575 Speaker 2: to prune, and it varies from tree to tree. So 180 00:09:22,655 --> 00:09:24,615 Speaker 2: I'm thinking about my plum tree at the moment, which 181 00:09:24,695 --> 00:09:28,295 Speaker 2: probably needs pruning. Now. Now fruit's already gone, leaves are 182 00:09:28,295 --> 00:09:30,135 Speaker 2: still on the tree. Now's the time to do it, 183 00:09:30,495 --> 00:09:33,135 Speaker 2: whereas not the time to do citrus, for example. 184 00:09:33,215 --> 00:09:36,655 Speaker 3: No, that's right, that's exactly the point. And citrus. The 185 00:09:36,695 --> 00:09:38,855 Speaker 3: other thing with citrus is that if you do it 186 00:09:38,895 --> 00:09:41,495 Speaker 3: a bit later, where but by the way. Where where 187 00:09:41,495 --> 00:09:43,615 Speaker 3: do you? Where do you? Where are you from? 188 00:09:44,295 --> 00:09:44,495 Speaker 8: Ah? 189 00:09:44,655 --> 00:09:45,615 Speaker 2: Not Wellington? 190 00:09:45,655 --> 00:09:48,295 Speaker 3: I think Wellington? Okay, there you go. Well, look, the 191 00:09:48,335 --> 00:09:51,495 Speaker 3: problem is that if you do it now you also 192 00:09:51,615 --> 00:09:56,535 Speaker 3: get these borer beetles into your right. So do it 193 00:09:56,575 --> 00:09:58,575 Speaker 3: a bit later is probably much better. 194 00:09:58,735 --> 00:10:01,695 Speaker 2: Okay, all right, much much onwards. But I know I've 195 00:10:01,695 --> 00:10:03,975 Speaker 2: got jobs to do. And talking of jobs to do 196 00:10:04,535 --> 00:10:06,535 Speaker 2: to do, good morning to you. Job on. 197 00:10:08,375 --> 00:10:08,615 Speaker 9: Guys. 198 00:10:08,655 --> 00:10:09,815 Speaker 8: How are we very well? 199 00:10:09,855 --> 00:10:10,055 Speaker 6: Well? 200 00:10:10,055 --> 00:10:11,255 Speaker 3: You are pretty good, y'all. 201 00:10:11,055 --> 00:10:17,095 Speaker 10: Know I sort of. We've just bought a property, get 202 00:10:18,215 --> 00:10:21,855 Speaker 10: in but the le what and we've got some apple 203 00:10:21,895 --> 00:10:27,135 Speaker 10: and pear trees that are quite well overgrown. Good to 204 00:10:27,175 --> 00:10:30,215 Speaker 10: supply brout on them, but I wanted to wanting to 205 00:10:30,255 --> 00:10:33,175 Speaker 10: give them a bit of a hem. Bet it would 206 00:10:33,175 --> 00:10:33,655 Speaker 10: be them. 207 00:10:35,535 --> 00:10:37,575 Speaker 3: Which one would you like to do first? Apples or 208 00:10:37,655 --> 00:10:45,575 Speaker 3: peers either? Okay? I think again you could do it 209 00:10:45,615 --> 00:10:48,255 Speaker 3: probably in winter is your best time, to be quite honest, 210 00:10:48,295 --> 00:10:50,895 Speaker 3: if you really want to grow get them lower, you 211 00:10:50,935 --> 00:10:54,695 Speaker 3: know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, so that is the 212 00:10:54,775 --> 00:10:58,095 Speaker 3: time to do it. Then what you can do is 213 00:10:58,095 --> 00:11:00,535 Speaker 3: you can do again, do let's say half of it now, 214 00:11:00,855 --> 00:11:03,495 Speaker 3: half of it next year, simple as that. 215 00:11:05,135 --> 00:11:09,495 Speaker 10: Okay. Also got another ways sword question. If we go 216 00:11:09,575 --> 00:11:14,375 Speaker 10: a bit trains planting, great. 217 00:11:14,215 --> 00:11:21,415 Speaker 3: Point grapevine, that should be at the moment starting to 218 00:11:21,455 --> 00:11:27,135 Speaker 3: produce fruit, right and especially especially especially fruit that you 219 00:11:27,135 --> 00:11:31,255 Speaker 3: can drink at a later age. But but it's yeah, 220 00:11:31,335 --> 00:11:32,775 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. But at the moment, this 221 00:11:32,855 --> 00:11:34,975 Speaker 3: is the time to do it. I would start the 222 00:11:35,095 --> 00:11:39,135 Speaker 3: pruning later on, after you've harvested your your crop, so 223 00:11:39,215 --> 00:11:41,095 Speaker 3: that'll be in March April. 224 00:11:41,295 --> 00:11:46,655 Speaker 10: That thing, okay, So because what's happened on that perspectors, 225 00:11:47,575 --> 00:11:50,175 Speaker 10: it's coming from a relative space. We don't want to 226 00:11:50,215 --> 00:11:52,215 Speaker 10: tack a whole lot out, but we just want to 227 00:11:52,215 --> 00:11:54,015 Speaker 10: take throw ourselves. 228 00:11:54,375 --> 00:11:57,175 Speaker 3: No, that's right, that's right. And apple trees and things 229 00:11:57,215 --> 00:12:00,455 Speaker 3: like that. Usually you do in July July August. It 230 00:12:00,535 --> 00:12:02,895 Speaker 3: is probably your best time when it's dormant. 231 00:12:03,095 --> 00:12:07,615 Speaker 10: You know, right, and you can just dance not half, 232 00:12:07,695 --> 00:12:09,735 Speaker 10: but then for a start and do the other half 233 00:12:09,855 --> 00:12:11,375 Speaker 10: following year, or. 234 00:12:11,495 --> 00:12:16,935 Speaker 3: Wait till you get into July August. Do you have 235 00:12:18,055 --> 00:12:19,775 Speaker 3: we're what are we talking about apples? 236 00:12:19,775 --> 00:12:19,855 Speaker 5: Now? 237 00:12:19,935 --> 00:12:21,175 Speaker 3: Are we talking about your. 238 00:12:22,095 --> 00:12:28,895 Speaker 10: Your go on? Yeah, we're talking about both. 239 00:12:28,695 --> 00:12:35,615 Speaker 3: Epple Yeah, yeah, that's a winter gig. Yeah, do a 240 00:12:35,695 --> 00:12:40,495 Speaker 3: winter time easy. 241 00:12:39,855 --> 00:12:44,175 Speaker 10: All, you can just transplant for the great thought of 242 00:12:44,575 --> 00:12:47,655 Speaker 10: you can just take your clutting off any branch and 243 00:12:47,655 --> 00:12:49,535 Speaker 10: then just stick it on the ground and way you'll go. 244 00:12:49,695 --> 00:12:53,415 Speaker 6: Or serious today, Yeah, you can do it like that, 245 00:12:53,695 --> 00:12:57,615 Speaker 6: No problem that they'll they'll get they'll, they'll they'll they'll 246 00:12:57,735 --> 00:13:00,975 Speaker 6: they'll live there nicely and they will keep going, no worries. 247 00:13:02,255 --> 00:13:05,375 Speaker 2: All of it sounds like he's not transplanting. He's actually 248 00:13:05,415 --> 00:13:08,215 Speaker 2: just taking a cutting and then yeah, yeah, okay, so 249 00:13:08,335 --> 00:13:09,495 Speaker 2: slightly different thing, isn't it. 250 00:13:11,375 --> 00:13:13,935 Speaker 3: There's three different things in one one one talking. 251 00:13:15,455 --> 00:13:18,095 Speaker 2: Pack of max.

It is also 252 00:13:18,175 --> 00:13:19,855 Speaker 2: eight forty six will take a break back in a 253 00:13:19,895 --> 00:13:30,135 Speaker 2: mow and re climb passed of course as well. And 254 00:13:30,695 --> 00:13:33,335 Speaker 2: let me see we're we at dimmy good morning. 255 00:13:34,015 --> 00:13:34,575 Speaker 11: Good morning. 256 00:13:34,655 --> 00:13:35,255 Speaker 9: How are you guys? 257 00:13:35,495 --> 00:13:35,695 Speaker 2: Good? 258 00:13:35,895 --> 00:13:37,375 Speaker 3: We're good? Thanks god. 259 00:13:37,775 --> 00:13:42,015 Speaker 11: Hey, just want to know how do we prevent our 260 00:13:42,095 --> 00:13:48,015 Speaker 11: fruit from rotting on the tree before it's really features lickerines. 261 00:13:49,255 --> 00:13:54,175 Speaker 3: A oh my goodness. Okay, air circulation, not too moist, 262 00:13:55,615 --> 00:13:58,935 Speaker 3: that sort of stuff. You know what I mean that 263 00:13:59,095 --> 00:14:01,535 Speaker 3: is to prevent it, But what I would do if 264 00:14:01,575 --> 00:14:03,615 Speaker 3: it happens a lot more so, if you, for instance, 265 00:14:03,655 --> 00:14:06,055 Speaker 3: have something that gets wet quite a bit or is 266 00:14:06,055 --> 00:14:09,335 Speaker 3: in it in a moist condition, and the foliage get 267 00:14:09,415 --> 00:14:14,255 Speaker 3: wet all the time. That's how you get fungi. Basically everywhere. 268 00:14:14,255 --> 00:14:17,535 Speaker 3: There could be all sorts of things. Sometimes people use 269 00:14:17,575 --> 00:14:22,255 Speaker 3: sulfur and copper, which are organic materials that you spray 270 00:14:22,295 --> 00:14:25,215 Speaker 3: on the leaves and on the developing fruit. And if 271 00:14:25,255 --> 00:14:28,935 Speaker 3: you do that on a regular basis, say, well, well 272 00:14:28,975 --> 00:14:32,215 Speaker 3: a couple of a couple of weeks before you harvest, 273 00:14:32,255 --> 00:14:33,895 Speaker 3: if you like, you don't want to go do over 274 00:14:33,935 --> 00:14:36,855 Speaker 3: the top, but if you use copper and sulfur, you'll 275 00:14:36,855 --> 00:14:41,575 Speaker 3: find that that will stop fungi getting hold in your 276 00:14:41,615 --> 00:14:43,375 Speaker 3: plants and in your developing fruit. 277 00:14:44,695 --> 00:14:48,655 Speaker 11: Oh okay, so that while the fruits on the trees. 278 00:14:49,135 --> 00:14:52,255 Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, well it's developing, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah. 279 00:14:52,495 --> 00:14:52,815 Speaker 4: Okay. 280 00:14:53,415 --> 00:14:55,495 Speaker 3: So the best thing is to go go to your 281 00:14:55,495 --> 00:14:57,855 Speaker 3: local garden center wherever you live, because they'll have all 282 00:14:57,855 --> 00:15:00,615 Speaker 3: sorts of stuff there and they may say, what works 283 00:15:00,655 --> 00:15:02,895 Speaker 3: well in our area at the moment is to use 284 00:15:02,935 --> 00:15:07,775 Speaker 3: this funger side that works on that particular material, whether 285 00:15:07,815 --> 00:15:09,295 Speaker 3: it's apples or whatever. 286 00:15:09,495 --> 00:15:13,255 Speaker 11: Yeah, okay, thank you very much. 287 00:15:13,295 --> 00:15:17,175 Speaker 2: All, We have a great day.

He hasn't 303 00:16:16,175 --> 00:16:18,255 Speaker 3: done it yet, and now you're not sure where you 304 00:16:18,295 --> 00:16:20,095 Speaker 3: need to plant them right now? I think I would 305 00:16:20,095 --> 00:16:23,055 Speaker 3: plant them, What the heck I've got? 306 00:16:23,335 --> 00:16:25,135 Speaker 8: I can't. If I plant them, I'm going to end 307 00:16:25,215 --> 00:16:29,255 Speaker 8: up sprying them with paints? 308 00:16:29,735 --> 00:16:34,575 Speaker 3: Is that the next gig paint? No, I wouldn't. I 309 00:16:34,575 --> 00:16:37,375 Speaker 3: wouldn't get it near the paint. No, no, exactly. 310 00:16:38,135 --> 00:16:41,935 Speaker 8: So the things with it, the things where they're going 311 00:16:41,975 --> 00:16:44,575 Speaker 8: to be planters plan they're going to be planted with 312 00:16:44,655 --> 00:16:47,855 Speaker 8: the thing for them to grow up needs to be painters. 313 00:16:48,415 --> 00:16:53,775 Speaker 8: It's been water blasted and process of getting it prepped. 314 00:16:56,655 --> 00:16:59,815 Speaker 3: Chuck those snail vines on in big pots so you 315 00:16:59,855 --> 00:17:03,135 Speaker 3: can plant them later or replant them later on the 316 00:17:03,135 --> 00:17:04,095 Speaker 3: place where you want them. 317 00:17:04,615 --> 00:17:06,575 Speaker 8: That's what I wanted to know, because I want to 318 00:17:06,615 --> 00:17:08,895 Speaker 8: know can I go from the little pot to a 319 00:17:09,015 --> 00:17:11,335 Speaker 8: big pot? And then how long do I have to wait? 320 00:17:11,975 --> 00:17:13,975 Speaker 8: Because I don't don't I don't believe you meant to 321 00:17:14,295 --> 00:17:17,055 Speaker 8: move plants around too quickly, is it right? 322 00:17:18,575 --> 00:17:21,415 Speaker 3: You'll see how they go if you put them on, yeah, 323 00:17:21,415 --> 00:17:24,175 Speaker 3: a medium sized pot, whatever. Sometimes you might need to 324 00:17:24,175 --> 00:17:26,815 Speaker 3: get them into a bigger pot. And I think the 325 00:17:26,855 --> 00:17:29,455 Speaker 3: snail vine is an absolutely wonderful thing, and I reckon 326 00:17:29,495 --> 00:17:32,095 Speaker 3: it will cope with that. And then if you plant them, 327 00:17:32,135 --> 00:17:34,855 Speaker 3: let's say in autumn time, when everybody has done the 328 00:17:34,895 --> 00:17:38,775 Speaker 3: things that they should have done. 329 00:17:40,935 --> 00:17:42,095 Speaker 2: It's a whole other issue. 330 00:17:45,615 --> 00:17:49,175 Speaker 8: Looks particular soil while in the intermediate big pot. Is 331 00:17:49,215 --> 00:17:51,175 Speaker 8: there anything I do have to do with the soil? 332 00:17:51,655 --> 00:17:53,815 Speaker 3: A good potting mix with a little bit of general 333 00:17:54,175 --> 00:17:56,375 Speaker 3: general potting mix if you like, so mix them up, 334 00:17:57,015 --> 00:17:58,015 Speaker 3: work no worries. 335 00:17:59,215 --> 00:18:01,815 Speaker 2: I've just had a look at snail vine because it's 336 00:18:01,975 --> 00:18:03,855 Speaker 2: it's quite a cute little flower, isn't it. 337 00:18:03,855 --> 00:18:08,335 Speaker 3: It's an incredibly beautiful thing. Yes, it is, Yeah, exactly exactly. 338 00:18:09,495 --> 00:18:11,255 Speaker 3: I'm going to do something with Jack Tame. I think 339 00:18:11,255 --> 00:18:14,495 Speaker 3: on that because I may have done I can't remember whatever, 340 00:18:14,575 --> 00:18:17,295 Speaker 3: but it's beautiful. Yeah, lovely, excellent to do it. 341 00:18:17,455 --> 00:18:19,175 Speaker 2: Paul Bamboo. 342 00:18:20,175 --> 00:18:21,015 Speaker 4: Morning Morning. 343 00:18:22,015 --> 00:18:25,655 Speaker 9: Yeah. About two years ago we returned to a property 344 00:18:25,975 --> 00:18:30,255 Speaker 9: that's been neglected for fifteen odd years. Someone part of 345 00:18:30,335 --> 00:18:35,615 Speaker 9: a bamboo and yeah, when we came back, it's about 346 00:18:36,535 --> 00:18:42,055 Speaker 9: twenty thirty square meter bloody. Yeah, but we've chopped it 347 00:18:42,095 --> 00:18:42,855 Speaker 9: all down. 348 00:18:43,295 --> 00:18:45,295 Speaker 3: Yeah. You know it's coming back, is it. 349 00:18:46,015 --> 00:18:48,735 Speaker 9: Yeah, it's and it's well, I've got a digit here 350 00:18:48,815 --> 00:18:51,455 Speaker 9: now and we're digging it out, all the roots out. 351 00:18:51,535 --> 00:18:53,335 Speaker 9: We're just drying it out and we're going to smash 352 00:18:53,335 --> 00:18:55,855 Speaker 9: it up and pull the west of the roots out. 353 00:18:55,935 --> 00:18:58,815 Speaker 9: It's quite a big area. But we've got the lawn 354 00:18:58,855 --> 00:19:02,135 Speaker 9: back under control as well. But it's popping up in 355 00:19:02,215 --> 00:19:05,455 Speaker 9: the lawn further out. How far do I have to go? 356 00:19:05,655 --> 00:19:07,615 Speaker 9: I don't really want to dig the whole lorn up. 357 00:19:08,055 --> 00:19:10,935 Speaker 3: No, you don't have to dig the whole lorn up. Okay, 358 00:19:11,335 --> 00:19:13,615 Speaker 3: so show you. But you really do want to get 359 00:19:13,735 --> 00:19:14,775 Speaker 3: get rid of it, don't you. 360 00:19:15,495 --> 00:19:15,695 Speaker 11: Yeah? 361 00:19:15,935 --> 00:19:18,375 Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, we don't want to back. So I'm digging 362 00:19:18,415 --> 00:19:21,175 Speaker 9: up the buttle load of where all the dirts did 363 00:19:21,655 --> 00:19:26,895 Speaker 9: around the house. But it's still creeping out. But I'm 364 00:19:26,895 --> 00:19:29,295 Speaker 9: not sure because we've only just started digging it out 365 00:19:29,375 --> 00:19:34,055 Speaker 9: of little kurtile the ones that are creeping out into 366 00:19:34,095 --> 00:19:34,495 Speaker 9: the lawn. 367 00:19:35,175 --> 00:19:38,775 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, there is. I remember when I lived in Auckland, 368 00:19:38,775 --> 00:19:42,135 Speaker 3: I had a huge amount of bamboo that I actually 369 00:19:42,255 --> 00:19:45,895 Speaker 3: curtailed by digging a big So I wanted to bamboo 370 00:19:45,935 --> 00:19:49,935 Speaker 3: there because it was good for for UH security and 371 00:19:49,975 --> 00:19:51,855 Speaker 3: all that sort of stuff. And also the wind would 372 00:19:51,895 --> 00:19:55,255 Speaker 3: take would be stopped by that bamboo. And you can 373 00:19:55,295 --> 00:19:58,855 Speaker 3: do that, for instance, by making a huge trail around 374 00:19:59,055 --> 00:20:01,335 Speaker 3: where those things are. The other thing you can do 375 00:20:01,455 --> 00:20:03,455 Speaker 3: is exactly what you're doing. Let them grow to let's 376 00:20:03,455 --> 00:20:08,255 Speaker 3: say foot long, and put some neat material on their 377 00:20:08,295 --> 00:20:11,775 Speaker 3: and neat stuff that kills the bamboo. 378 00:20:11,815 --> 00:20:14,655 Speaker 2: That'll do it.
