Hello , used Green Manure last year for first time , it worked but was hard work digging it in
I have bought some more for over wintering it is Thompson & Morgan green manure mix a good all round one if you are un sure what to use , however , the last recommend sowing for winter is September for this one
Hello. Used green manure for the last 5 years on my allotment, vast improvment, just sow .strimmer down in spring, dig in, I use a company called . The grass seed store, ltd, online, first class expert advice, (Rusty bucket)
Just sown 2 types on one of the 3 plots I have in rotation
There are lots of children on the plot and I have sown one type of GM in the shape of a heart and the rest around it with another type so it should be fun in a few months
They love the Pirates Flag next to the shed and ask if they are in or out at sea
Everyone is just trying to be Happy.....So lets help Them.
