The allotment - 4 months later


So here's an updated pic of the plot - it might not look like much to the non-gardeners amongst you but I promise that this has taken a lot of work!

The first time I dug each rectangular bed I could just about scrape across the surface and get most of the weeds out... then a couple of weeks later nature had broken the soil up a bit for me so I could get the fork into the soil at least! After a third dig it looks like a veggie plot rather than wasteground so it gets covered up quickly before a new selection of weeds can take hold!

The next stage is to put planks in as borders then put woodchip down on the pathways... maybe this weekend ??
