For what it's worth, the most successful and methodical man on our site (in his 70s) always does his digging in the early spring, ready to plant seedlings he brings on at home.
A large amount of the plot is for squash
I never got my winter dig done due to working away all year and returning late October. As my plot was covered in hessian prior to my departure I am not overly worried about my winter dig as hopefully the coverage was killed most weeds. Though I am a little disappointed at not being able to dig in manure late autumn in preparation for my brassicas next year.
