Hi Sam,

It is called liverwort, and it grows from spores in cool, moist areas. I see it often in nursery containers and just scrape it off, however our property is so dry that any leftover spores won't grow here so I don't worry about it.

I've never checked to see which chemicals control it, although one article I read suggested spraying them with vinegar... just don't let it touch anything else.

Thanks Chris
The fish and chips (french fries) will have to do without their vinegar tonight

Fish and chips are the best with vinegar, I think, but may not be for everyone.

Chips being french fries right? And what kind of vinegar do you use on them? I guess I have never heard of that.

But this is comming from a person who just ate a Peanut butter, mayo and sweet pickle sandwich

We prefer brown malt vinegar but white is fine too
