Do it in the autumn; October would be ideal. I hope they fruit well; when I did that on a new plot they turned out to be riddled with virus and a total waste of space.

If the fruit's OK, they haven't got virus. When they get it the fruit almost disappears; mine had a very few really tiny ones, and they spread rampantly.

thanks Lorna, I am sure i will enjoy the site found it very informative already!
searched through previous posts and found the answers to lot of my questions.

i will post some pics of the plot as it progresses still at the planning stage at the mo i have however  given the fork a good workout and started on the compost's.

shame its so wet today was looking forward to getting a bit more done, still i gives me chance to do a bit of reading
