Strange the other side is growing normally up straight, sideways and evenly as it should.

That's a good point, when I put the compost and new top soil I found alot of rubble so perhaps that could be the issue

Using the forum on phone is not ideal, autocorrect etc make it hell and cause confusion. Apparently the emojis don't show up on the forum which adds to the confusion. To summarise, the hedge is trimmed regularly, it was last trimmed at the end of May 2023. I didn't plant the hedge, the house...

Hi folks, the point I was raising about lack of growth in the two section pointed by an arrow.. this was a straight line when trimmed but as you can see from the picture, it has only properly grown in the right where the grass is.. the growth is not even. Anyhow, on during my travels on the...

That was a typo lol.. end of June.. come on!!! Its trimmed every 2 to 3 weeks

Yes, it was last trimmed at the end of July ! Who uses shears on this size of hedge these days??

Pmsl... I'd like to know how many folk prune the hedge more than twice a year... Trimming yes I do every 2-3 weeks in summer and longer in winter !!

No drain smell so far.. as long as you don't go overboard (which I've seen some threads where folk have cut deep slots on the cup (part B) then you are OK..

Thanks Madrab... so I drilled 4 holes on Part A and also two 20mm holes on part B. Ran the shower and hey presto.. all sorted. I was confident it was the airlock issue, just wasn't sure where to drill the holes

Hi folks, I have a McAlpine Fast-flowing shower drain which is not fast flowing as the product claims. The plumbing is correct and no issues or blockages. When I lift the Part A (which breaks the water seal) the shower flows as it should so I'm suspecting it's to do with airlock. I have...
