Sprouts , keep meaning to mention this , last year grew sprouts in a block of 4 X 4 and the middle ones didn't grow as well , so will revert to growing them in lines of 2 again
Bit boring I know but thought might be useful info
Will water the compost bin next time I'm at the plot.
Gg-plots get smaller the further down the site you go. Charges are different depending how big the plot is. My plot is two half plots so some would say I had two plot.
Zoomer44 think two plots is fine and I just think if you have a lot of plots it is good if you can look after them all, one site rep on the site I am on has about 5 plots or more not sure they are all kept up
Ginagibbs that is good that he tidied up his plot , rest for you
Went to the allotment today and done some weeding in the trial bed and around the strawberries
Have a slight issue that new neighbour me never met has two of my long planks on there plot can tell they are the ones I got by colour and cardboard splatter and markings, not sure what to do now, going to email council lady don't want to have nightmare neighbours wars going on
That is good Aster2 think they are the same as the small 1/4 trays I use
Also noticed Lidl are having fruit trees this week
Gardengirl , agree difficult , could take them back and pin not on there shed , saying wind must have blown them across but as you said don't want to start " allotment wars "
Thanks GWRS and Aster2 good about the wind it does blow stuff that way, do need to mark things more its not like just being in the garden - not had a reply yet
Been watching youtube allotment videos
Lidl trip tomorrow may well get some strawberry plants for garden
Happy sowing Aster2. Going to plug in my propagator this weekend and start with Aubergine's, chillies and peppers. Broad beans and pea's on kitchen roll.

Lidl seem to be advertising on TV there garden stuff for Thursday so have to get the fast on the day as when they advertise more stuff goes quick
My windowsill propagator has just arrived. Those seven little boxes are cute! Now I really have to figure out when and how much to sow.

What ever we are hear to support
Fingers crossed, Gardengirl. You could also mark things you don't want to go walkabout with your plot number or initials.
