Hi there,
After hunting around some sites on the net for some help this forum looks by far the most friendly, so I think I'll set my roots down here
Apart from mould in a cup when I was a student I have never grown a single thing before. I spend my week stuck behind a PC in an office. So in search of some fresh air and exercise I've got myself an allotment plot.
I am lucky enough (I think) that it has been rotivated in the last week but, for some reason I'm hesitant at where to start. It sounds like I should choose a section (not too large) to dig over (as it's been rotivated is this simply to get as many weeds /roots out of the ground as possible?) dig in some manure and then sow/plant. Does this sound about right?
What to do next? From the couple of books I've managed to get my hands on from the Library I can't work out what I can plant / sow at this time of year. It looks like I've missed the boat and am left with preparing the soil ready for next year and I think this is what's making me hesitant.
I could really do with some advice - thank you
