Michael A 52 00:02:36,455 --> 00:02:39,055 Speaker 2: very good morning, Good. 53 00:02:38,895 --> 00:02:43,655 Speaker 4: Morning, real question about whats I'm good at? Killing them 54 00:02:43,655 --> 00:02:47,295 Speaker 4: in the nest? Should I leave the nest up or 55 00:02:47,455 --> 00:02:52,055 Speaker 4: remove the nest? And the second part of the question is, sorry. 56 00:02:52,215 --> 00:02:55,215 Speaker 3: Yeah, the question. First of all, I have what wasps 57 00:02:55,255 --> 00:02:58,095 Speaker 3: are you talking about? We've got one, two, three, or 58 00:02:58,095 --> 00:02:59,455 Speaker 3: five six different species? 59 00:03:00,775 --> 00:03:03,855 Speaker 4: Pretty sure papers are the way we go typically up 60 00:03:03,935 --> 00:03:05,255 Speaker 4: underneath gathers, et cetera. 61 00:03:05,775 --> 00:03:10,455 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 62 00:03:09,695 --> 00:03:10,575 Speaker 5: Yeah exactly. 63 00:03:10,615 --> 00:03:13,935 Speaker 4: And then how do I stop them coming back? Because 64 00:03:14,255 --> 00:03:17,775 Speaker 4: it's like playing wetamole. We've got quite an old property. 65 00:03:18,735 --> 00:03:21,615 Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, I got the same hussles. Of course. 66 00:03:21,695 --> 00:03:24,375 Speaker 3: It's and everybody who's got a bit of paper was 67 00:03:24,575 --> 00:03:28,895 Speaker 3: knows exactly how this works. Your trick, you know, the 68 00:03:28,935 --> 00:03:31,735 Speaker 3: trick of going at night with a torch and and 69 00:03:32,015 --> 00:03:35,055 Speaker 3: and a plastic bag and a sharp Stanley knife and 70 00:03:35,135 --> 00:03:37,695 Speaker 3: cut the bugger off and drop it straight into the 71 00:03:37,775 --> 00:03:40,895 Speaker 3: in the dark, straight into the bag and then chuck 72 00:03:40,975 --> 00:03:45,975 Speaker 3: the bag with the by then very shitty wasps into 73 00:03:46,015 --> 00:03:49,495 Speaker 3: the freezer for overnight, and then it'll do them. I 74 00:03:49,535 --> 00:03:51,735 Speaker 3: know that they might come back, but not at the 75 00:03:51,775 --> 00:03:54,695 Speaker 3: same place. Usually once that colony is gone, there will go. 76 00:03:55,215 --> 00:03:58,015 Speaker 3: You know. That's it, but it is. It is the 77 00:03:58,055 --> 00:04:01,015 Speaker 3: only way to go, really, unless you want to go 78 00:04:01,055 --> 00:04:03,375 Speaker 3: and use for besticides. I suppose. 79 00:04:04,935 --> 00:04:09,295 Speaker 4: Well I have been using. Yeah, I written or flice 80 00:04:09,375 --> 00:04:11,295 Speaker 4: forrea at night. That seems to do pretty well. 81 00:04:13,335 --> 00:04:13,575 Speaker 5: Yeah. 82 00:04:13,695 --> 00:04:15,175 Speaker 4: And the other thing so is we got some middle 83 00:04:15,215 --> 00:04:19,775 Speaker 4: pipes around an old racetrack that they're now starting to 84 00:04:20,535 --> 00:04:23,495 Speaker 4: put nets into those. So oh really it makes the 85 00:04:23,535 --> 00:04:24,695 Speaker 4: bagging option a bit hard. 86 00:04:24,815 --> 00:04:30,215 Speaker 3: Yeah, obviously I can imagine, all right, But again it's 87 00:04:30,255 --> 00:04:32,455 Speaker 3: the idea of not to get done by them and 88 00:04:32,495 --> 00:04:34,295 Speaker 3: do it in the in the evenings at night or 89 00:04:34,335 --> 00:04:36,975 Speaker 3: when they're asleep, and you know you've got at least 90 00:04:36,975 --> 00:04:38,655 Speaker 3: twenty seconds to do your job. 91 00:04:40,575 --> 00:04:40,775 Speaker 5: Yeah. 92 00:04:40,855 --> 00:04:42,895 Speaker 4: Luckily they didn't never come after me once you hit 93 00:04:42,975 --> 00:04:45,095 Speaker 4: them with either the peripher or the flights by. They 94 00:04:45,095 --> 00:04:46,695 Speaker 4: said to be worried about other things, so. 95 00:04:46,895 --> 00:04:50,295 Speaker 3: That I noticed. That's so good. But the person who 96 00:04:50,335 --> 00:04:54,135 Speaker 3: holds the torch is usually the next target. 97 00:04:56,815 --> 00:04:59,055 Speaker 4: Well, I've tended to do it just after dust, so 98 00:04:59,095 --> 00:05:01,055 Speaker 4: I can still see what's going on, and I normally 99 00:05:01,055 --> 00:05:02,695 Speaker 4: know where the nest is because I found that during 100 00:05:02,695 --> 00:05:05,255 Speaker 4: the day. So yeah, my targeting has been pretty good 101 00:05:05,295 --> 00:05:07,815 Speaker 4: so far. And I've got quite a long you know, 102 00:05:08,015 --> 00:05:10,695 Speaker 4: like a two mile lump on a bad expert. 103 00:05:10,855 --> 00:05:11,575 Speaker 3: So oh good. 104 00:05:11,615 --> 00:05:13,775 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeahs to deal with them pretty quick. 105 00:05:13,975 --> 00:05:19,335 Speaker 3: Yeah, distance is important. You're absolutely right there, Michael, So. 106 00:05:18,855 --> 00:05:21,095 Speaker 4: So should so once it's all done, I normally wait 107 00:05:21,135 --> 00:05:22,855 Speaker 4: a couple of days because the other thing I've noticed 108 00:05:23,215 --> 00:05:25,535 Speaker 4: is there's often some white stuff in there, and often 109 00:05:25,575 --> 00:05:27,215 Speaker 4: some what's will still come out. 110 00:05:27,735 --> 00:05:27,935 Speaker 5: Yeah. 111 00:05:27,975 --> 00:05:30,375 Speaker 4: Sure, I'll take the miss down after that month or two, 112 00:05:30,455 --> 00:05:31,895 Speaker 4: because I had noticed. 113 00:05:31,615 --> 00:05:37,335 Speaker 3: Immediately, immediately immediately, because that's where the young ones come 114 00:05:37,415 --> 00:05:39,935 Speaker 3: out with. The white thing is the silk that holds 115 00:05:40,295 --> 00:05:44,455 Speaker 3: the container where the young one is actually developing. And 116 00:05:44,535 --> 00:05:46,375 Speaker 3: the best thing to do is to literally, as I said, 117 00:05:46,455 --> 00:05:48,615 Speaker 3: chuck it in the plastic bag in the freezer. Cost 118 00:05:48,655 --> 00:05:51,655 Speaker 3: you nothing, just in the freezer for twenty four hours. Gone, 119 00:05:51,935 --> 00:05:56,655 Speaker 3: everything right, okay, easy, yeah, awesome, done. 120 00:05:56,495 --> 00:06:00,255 Speaker 2: All the very good luck for the mate. Take care ceiling. 121 00:06:00,335 --> 00:06:01,975 Speaker 2: Bye bye Ian, Good morning. 122 00:06:03,095 --> 00:06:05,815 Speaker 6: Yeah, good morning at see and how are you. 123 00:06:06,015 --> 00:06:08,535 Speaker 3: Hey, We're good mate, Okay. 124 00:06:08,935 --> 00:06:14,055 Speaker 6: Tr Mudu area out in the country raspberries and looking 125 00:06:14,095 --> 00:06:15,615 Speaker 6: to try and get bigger berries. 126 00:06:17,255 --> 00:06:21,495 Speaker 7: The canes are about one point a high now, and 127 00:06:22,375 --> 00:06:26,255 Speaker 7: I started them off with Dalton's pack and nex or 128 00:06:26,295 --> 00:06:31,575 Speaker 7: whatever you call it. Thought sorry mulch and necks and 129 00:06:32,735 --> 00:06:35,975 Speaker 7: some other fertilizer on it. But I'm just wondering if 130 00:06:36,055 --> 00:06:41,375 Speaker 7: I should be adding more in their potash. 131 00:06:41,615 --> 00:06:45,135 Speaker 3: Yeah. The thing with these berries is, and it's working 132 00:06:45,255 --> 00:06:49,215 Speaker 3: quite well in my little berry cage, is to give 133 00:06:49,255 --> 00:06:54,215 Speaker 3: it a high K high potash fertilizer. It could be 134 00:06:54,255 --> 00:06:57,375 Speaker 3: a roast fertilizer, it could be you know, any fruit 135 00:06:57,615 --> 00:07:02,255 Speaker 3: or flowering fertilizer usually has more potaste than the N 136 00:07:02,415 --> 00:07:05,255 Speaker 3: and the P. And that's basically the way to go. 137 00:07:05,415 --> 00:07:07,495 Speaker 3: And of course the prune later. It's from now on, 138 00:07:07,615 --> 00:07:10,935 Speaker 3: I suppose, when these things are starting to to grow up. 139 00:07:11,375 --> 00:07:14,015 Speaker 3: The pruning is, of course, you leave three if you like, 140 00:07:14,135 --> 00:07:17,135 Speaker 3: or four of the canes of the of the new 141 00:07:17,295 --> 00:07:20,255 Speaker 3: wood standing and the old stuff can go click click 142 00:07:20,295 --> 00:07:23,815 Speaker 3: click gone. Yeah from now on. 143 00:07:23,935 --> 00:07:28,495 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, so I used I've tried some of the 144 00:07:28,495 --> 00:07:31,095 Speaker 6: blue tomato fertilizer. 145 00:07:31,495 --> 00:07:34,615 Speaker 3: I'm lud for what that is nitrofosca blue or something 146 00:07:34,655 --> 00:07:39,375 Speaker 3: like that. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, that works. Yeah. But 147 00:07:39,775 --> 00:07:41,935 Speaker 3: you know what is what is a really good trick though, 148 00:07:41,975 --> 00:07:44,055 Speaker 3: And I must say, and it's probably the best thing. 149 00:07:44,335 --> 00:07:47,735 Speaker 3: Even if you have a general fertilizer like nitrofosca and something, 150 00:07:48,255 --> 00:07:51,175 Speaker 3: you get a handful of sulfate of potash and chuck 151 00:07:51,255 --> 00:07:54,295 Speaker 3: that with it. Water it in or it waters when 152 00:07:54,295 --> 00:07:56,815 Speaker 3: it when it rains, I suppose otherwise, water it in 153 00:07:57,215 --> 00:08:00,855 Speaker 3: and that stimulates the plants in making more and more 154 00:08:00,935 --> 00:08:03,055 Speaker 3: buds for for fruit. 155 00:08:04,535 --> 00:08:07,815 Speaker 6: Okay, excellent, appreciate. 156 00:08:06,935 --> 00:08:08,335 Speaker 3: Your help, no worries. 157 00:08:08,535 --> 00:08:10,815 Speaker 2: Go well, all the very best to you. Thank you. 158 00:08:10,815 --> 00:08:16,455 Speaker 2: Ian to take care critics, Doris Plumtree had zero fruit. 159 00:08:16,575 --> 00:08:18,535 Speaker 2: Any ideas as to why from Mike. 160 00:08:19,015 --> 00:08:21,095 Speaker 3: Could be a number of things. First of all, if 161 00:08:21,135 --> 00:08:26,535 Speaker 3: you know quite often you have you need a pollinator, 162 00:08:26,615 --> 00:08:30,935 Speaker 3: so you need two different varieties that make one of 163 00:08:31,055 --> 00:08:36,015 Speaker 3: and both plants actually get pollinated properly, and that it 164 00:08:36,175 --> 00:08:38,135 Speaker 3: sometimes one of those trees could die, you know, and 165 00:08:38,135 --> 00:08:40,815 Speaker 3: then you've got one left, and it might pay to 166 00:08:40,895 --> 00:08:44,615 Speaker 3: have another variety next to it does that make sense? 167 00:08:44,855 --> 00:08:47,735 Speaker 3: That's number one. The second thing it could be, indeed, 168 00:08:47,935 --> 00:08:50,975 Speaker 3: a lack of potash what I just talked about, which 169 00:08:51,095 --> 00:08:55,535 Speaker 3: actually makes the plant or the tree create far more fruit. 170 00:08:56,575 --> 00:08:59,855 Speaker 3: It seems like that.
