Update,
The seedlings are ticking along on the window sill, I've been brave and cleaned out the greenhouse and set this up. diy deep water culture hydroponics. at the moment 3 as one of the overwintered plants died but I'll set the forth up when one of the seedlings is big enough.
New this year also is topping the overwintered plants, I watched an interesting video on youtube and true to the video it's stimulated new growth and will hopefully give a bushier type plant.
Each of the pots is 10L and I've used 5ML per litre of chilli focus food. Hopefully these will explode when the roots escape from the net pot and start drinking the good stuff!

Enjoyed that, thanks for posting.
Thanks for watching.
Enjoyed that. Some hard won birds over fabulous terrain.
Thanks mate, they are always hard earned but I wouldn't have it any other way.

Nice clip again Ollie.
How did your season go with woodcock?
Apparently huge numbers late on here although we were the average.
Not great Dave, think I had a personally tally of 18-20, which is poor. But there was no hard weather to push them outa the forestries.

Another entertaining video.
Your dogs are good to watch and certainly earn their dinner, every bird is hard work.
It has been noticeable that you rarely get a clear , dry days shooting and the cover has remained thick throughout the season.
Hopefully, you will have some pigeon shooting videos to keep us entertained until next season.
Weather has been terrible all year, but we had a good return on the birds despite some problem foxes. The cover is just a carpet of briars & bracken so we really need a couple of November frosts to kill it, but we had mild weather.
Won't be on the pigeons until July, but I have one more rough shooting video to edit & hopefully get out on the crows during silage season.
Thanks for watching as always!!

This is the last video from our pheasant syndicate for 2015/16 season. The video was over the last 2 Saturday's of the season, not many birds about but we did manage to get our total returns up to almost 50%.
I'm sure the dogs are glad to get a rest for s few months until the summer time. It's been a tough season with the weather very mild early on so the cover was very thick and almost every day ruined with wind & rain.
Anyway, I hope you all had a nice season and thanks for watching as always, please like, share & comment on the video. Follow the link & subscribe to my channel:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdXL...
Cheers,

This has been one of my worst years for woodcock but I know others in Northern Ireland have been getting good numbers. I am based on the coast looking across to Scotland so I think a lot of the birds moved further inland with the mild weather.
I shot 3 yesterday and I flushed 2 doubles, but only got a shot at 1 bird each time as the other birds never presented themselves. I am out again tomorrow & on the syndicate on Saturday, so hopefully bag a few more before the season ends.

I browned it of in the frying pan then straight Into hot oven for 10 mins
I love woodcock, do it similar to royboy above. They need to be a blush pink to be tasty and make sure you rest them after taking out of the oven. Finally, don't forget about the most tasty part...the legs!!! They are so sweet and a little whiter than the breast meat.

Great video. My boy is only 18 months but I can't wait to start taking him out with me.

Brilliant as always Ryan 👍👍👍

We are back out on the pheasant syndicate again. The footage is from 2 days; first few clips are from Saturday 9th January with a howling wind & freezing rain coming off the irish sea both the shooting & recording was a bit of a disaster.
Second day the weather was much better with a bit of overnight snow & frost it was a lovely day to be out shooting. Ended up with a bag of 9 pheasants.
Please like, comment & share the video.

Nice post as always & great pics. Good to see you are getting out & bagging some birds. Why don't you try & decoy those pigeons?

Chilli Growing
in Food and Drink
Posted
I don't have the first clue about all those hydrophonics set-ups, but I have red that they are very good for growing chilli's.
A couple of years ago I made my own homemade self-watering plants using a wick into a 3 litre well underneath. It was amazing how much the plants drunk at the height of summer.
