Gg's and other posters have posted some good links onto youtube about allotmenteering,, it's worth going back and reading some of the previous postings ...if you are just starting out it'll provide inspiration during the winter months and keep you going until the Spring...
Hello Mitch, GW advice a shed .First thing to put in a gas ring so you can make a brew and survey your kingdom. Zoomer I have a plastic but worried about it withstanding the weather.
Hi Mitch, welcome and sorry to hear about your Dad, just lost mine so I know how you feel, especially as they are not there to share/advise anymore. As Zoomer says there are lots of good site on Youtube that are worth following for tips especially how to tackle a new plot. Good luck
Hi Mitch and welcome! Take all the advice you get given on here, view tons on you tube and read. Lots. When you think you can't read anymore, keep reading!
Now is a great time to take on a plot but when the season gets going, it can be very busy so it's worth reading up now while it's semi quiet
I am a couple of weeks away from starting a you tube channel on allotmenting. When I do start I will give you guys the heads up
Sounds great, Fruitcake!! Ive been doing lots of reading guys, and Dad kept all his allotment magazines in the loft, so got them to sift through too. So ive plenty to do! sounds like a good book GWRS, may have to find that!
never got my keys today after all coz of all the ice, perhaps tomorrow?!
