How much time do you need to work an allotment for it to work reasonably well? I suppose what's the minimum really? My son is starting school in september (where has the time gone?!) and I'm thinking about signing up for an allotment. Although I need to know which school he's going to go to first, so I can get one near that. (The schools with picked are in opposite directions from our house and have sites near them!) I know it might be a little while until I actually get the allotment.I was thinking of growing the high maintenance crops at home, and things that we'd use regularly (like salad, soft fruit) and a few beans, peas, courgettes, etc. And have spuds, squashes and more of everything else at the allotment. I'd probably only get a half plot.Would it manage on about 3-4 hours 2 or 3 a week at the most? I think that's about all I could spare, inbetween housework, grocery shopping, and all the other mum stuff I have to do!
