Bind weed

Keep digging out as much as you can. When i took on my allotment 6 years ago it was covered and although i still get it growing there isnt so much. I dont think any weedkiller will finish it off just persistant digging. I wish you luck.

Have been given some seed potatoes so will plant them at allotment tomorrow and then do some more weeding. Does it never end?

had a good day in the garden. Had to get a skip for when the roof men took down the chimney so having a majopr clearout, where does it all come from? Trying to empty a water butt as the tap has broken meant to do it last year but it kept filling uo with rain.

The pond is full of tadpoles,and have given some to the children next door so they can watch them grow. Now sitting down for 5 minutes before i go and cook the dinner, takes a lot of effort making a salad. Ha Ha

Take a sneaky peek at what everyone else is doing ie planting potatoes etc then follow. I have a bed of asparagus, its wonderful.

I have made raised beds and it saves a lot of digging in the long run. Enjoy it all even the mistakes. Other allotmenteers will happily give you advice and quite often a cup of tea. Unless they set their shed alight like my neighbour did.

I wish you every success.

I do a pooh patrol on a regular basis and then take it all to the pooh bin. I do my best. Now if i could only get the people down the shop to put rubbish in the bin instead of letting it blow into my front garden.
