Hi snake, you've got a helluva job there, how do you manage an allotment as well?? I'm going for a month away to Serbia this year (July) and I'm dreading finding the plot overgrown with all sorts... I'm thinking about what I can plant that can just get on with it... what do you grow?

it is hard keeping on top of things and i spend every july in canada so when i get back there is quite a few weeds. but i grow a lot of things that can sort of look after them selfs and keep weeds down. i have a lot of strawberries grown thickly together. some ruhbarb(dont reali like it but other people do and its easy to grow) lots of onion sets and loads of spuds. i grow all the normal stuff as well but i only get half as good results as every one else. i get a bit of hassle from the other allotment holders about my weeds. but when i am down there my mind is as far away from here as possible. i found its this best stress relif you can get.

Sounds like you are going a grand job snake!
As far as how we are getting on...
Need to do much more weeding, but the paths are still flooded- so that will have to wait another week or so.
Still waiting for our muck to arrive- we have to spread it in spring as our water table is so high that it leaches away nutrients over the winter.
Want to clean the greenhouse glass.
Have bought spuds( need some egg boxes now!), shallots and onions and a few fruit bushes.
Found and sorting last years seeds and it looks like we only need parsnip and carrot seeds this year ( going to be good and use up old packets) - that should save a bit of cash!
Yep - it FEELS like it's getting started folks!"Nicos, Queen of Gooooogle" and... GYO's own Miss Marple
