New on here but been gardening since I was a kid, although some would say I still am one. So half a century plus of experience and still learning.
Had my present allotment/s for twelve years, 30 rods in total, but 12 years ago nobody was interested in allotments and the council actively encouraged having multiple plots, anyone as long as you paid the rent they were happy. Have a shed, five greenhouses, a bus stop and a pet fox.
My pride and joy is a 36ft x 12ft greenhouse, thanks to ebay, with a propagating bench 4ft x 24ft, also has a wood burner and 12volt lighting, car battery with solar charging, many other features. Being a retired toolmaker everything was made from scrap and mostly on site using hand tools.
Not entirely sure why I registered here, but it is a useful site
