You don't have to wait for a frost - you can do it now
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
thanks for that dovefromabove i always wait for a frost but its so mild
So was last winter Stanley - but I hope this winter's going to be colder than last - too many slugs, bugs and aphids kept breeding through last winter - we had battalions of them last spring! We need some sharp frosts!
