new allotment

good for you. Somwhere near the taps( if they have them), away from trees. Take a spade with you and do a test dig, so you can see which one has better soil. If possible try to find out which one was cultivated most recently then hopefully the weeds and weed seeds shouldnot be too bad. Happy digging :P

bannana shallots

I have eventually tracked down some of these rare seeds for my allotment, but the instructions are in French and for the French climate. Has anyone any experiance in growing these?, if so when should I plant the seeds, (in modules) and when should I plant out. Thanks :lol:

sweet peas

plant out and water well with seaweed fertliser. When they are taller take off all the tredrils, the plant doesnot need these and more vigor will go into the leaves and the flowers. Hope this is of assistance :)

at last hope my brainy son will set the dvd for me as he is the only one who knows how to use it.
I agree a stupid time, think I will complain to the BBC. Maybe they will bring it out on a dvd.
