Re: Starting a new plot

Hi again I have taken off the turf and turned the plot over. I will be putting the surrounding timber in next and I will be adding compost etc but although i've taken the turf off to below the grass roots i'm sure there will be some that get left behind and start to grow again. Is it worth laying so...

Starting a new plot

Hi all

I want to start a new vegetable plot this coming season on part of my garden which is currently turfed. The plot is 30X3 feet and I want to make it a raised bed. After removing the turf can you advise me on the best way to prepare and treat the soil. Many Thanks in advance.
