Verdun , it is probably linked to local shows , we enter Village show July but because allotment is in another village we can enter that show in September , as well but usually away for that one
I known last year several people tried to grow biggest pumpkins on Allotment ?
As I said before I treat allotment as an extension of garden , best of luck in getting one
Hi Verdun, do you have a long waiting list in your area? As GWRS,s says, its a lot of work to start with but once the main beds are sorted it gets easier.
Found a pile of pallet collars this morning near where I work, will use these as raised beds
went to allotment to retrieve pots of strawberries, gave our wheelbarrow to allotment society to be used by everyone. Was told there's a half plot right up next to society shop free, that's exactly what I'd want but expect it'll go as we'll be bottom of list ( around30th ) now, such a shame we didn't get a small plot 1st time, think we'd have managed that

Brilliant Ginagibbs nice find there, any pictures of your pond?
Going to try watch Gardeners World on at 3pm missed it yesterday and iplayer only has 3 mins of programme
It"s been a wet weekend here went to the plot today to sow more seeds and check if any had germinated from last weekend.
I need to make some room in the GH, if it"s dry next weekend onions, garlic and shallots can go out and a load of iris which are shooting in pots.
Sorted through a couple of boxes of Dahlia's and brought some home to soak
Happy growing everyone...????

Hello all
Rosemummy fingers crossed for you
Both of us Went to plot yesterday, cleared out sprouts and broccoli and dug beds
Trimmed Kale , tied up spinach & chard and decided to leave them for a bit longer
Put bark chipping s around gooseberrys bushes and a few other jobs
It was a bit windy but warm
Pallet collars are great
