Hi, my allotment seems to have been infested with chickweed,
Unfortunately I started weeding and turning the soil before I realised what it was. Can you advise how best way to deal with it ?
Best regards.

My tomatoes have again been infected with blight. I've dug up the plants and binned them and I believe I should now sterilize the soil. Can you recommend anything? Somebody mentioned Jeyes fluid but I'm not sure if that's allowed any more.

I have covered my broccoli with netting but the plants are rapidly reaching the top. Any idea when it's safe to uncover them ?

I've started digging my main crop spuds this week and have already accidentally pierced quite a few. I try to insert the fork as upright as possible but does anyone have any top tips to avoid this problem ?

My raspberry plants are well established and are getting a bit out of hand. I cut them back to ground level in the winter but should I thin them out when they re-emerge in the spring ?

We love French Tarragon but have never successfully grown it, despite several attempts. We don't have a greenhouse apart from a plastic zip up one. Any suggestions ?

Thanks Peter, I've heard conflicting information, it's good to hear first hand knowledge.

I'm new to this forum so forgive me if the question had already been raised. I can probably get hold of wood chip from a local tree surgeon, can I use it as mulch on my allotment ?
