Had another look round yesterday. It's 52' x18' & the 18' runs north to south. There are some very tall trees at the top which will cast some shade they are facing west. The only permanent thing on the plot is a huge blackcurrant bush. We were going to use the bottom 16' for fruit & the rest for veg but the middle part could be used instead. So far we have Autumn raspberries, poss 3 rows, 5 b/currant bushes, 1 row of rhubarb & 5 cordon fruit trees & 2 plums.
We will grow the usual veg, potatoes, carrots, runner beans, french beans, peas, brassicas, broad beans , squash, & a few odd veg. I also have 3 small raised beds at home that i can use for salads, sweetcorn, strawberries, tomatoes & bits that don't fit at the lotty.
We are manuring the whole plot but as it's 4 year old cow manure can we still plant roots. Are there any crops we can fit between the rows of fruit. Sorry for all the questions but ATM it's a blank canvas.
Where would you experts plant things?
Janet.
