The height of summer is a difficult time to work over a new plot. The soil my be rock hard, and the weeds are still growing strongly....and you'll struggle to plant much now.
in the past few weeks I've contacted three of our waiting list who had specified that they had little gardening experience and a Starter Plot was just what they would be looking for. I haven't had a response of any kind from any of them!

I haven't had a response of any kind from any of them!So what will you do Trevor? I'd be tempted to remove them from the waiting-list.
I would love to do some research into what factors affect success and satisfaction in allotment gardening, and what could help reduce neglected plots. But maybe someone's already done it!
