in response to the wall comment:
haven't heard about it... but could imagine that to work, it's not nice to crawl over coffee grounds as a slug?
What's the fertiliser plant called again that you mentioned? I'm intrigued by it.
I didn't get a notificaton of the comment you left on the wall, maybe notifications are only sent to discussions... Time will tell.
Strangely, one of my lettuces got devoured by slugs, the other two, adjacent, same type etc are perfectly intact and great lunchtime munch food for my sannies. In general I found that lettuce in pots and on raised beds are less likely to be eaten by slugs. Not sure if that's a general rule or not.

if you get a big barrel of water and let a few plant waste away in it you get a very potent ( smelly ) fertilizer - and you can chomp it straight in to your beds - but dont let my apparent knowledge fool you - Andy told me all this, I dont even know what it looks like!!!
the coffee seems to be working, and I was in a coffee shop recently who were selling bags of used grounds as an organic sluf repellent for a £1, and donating it to charity - thats enterprising eh......
