Title: New Allotment Web Site
Post by: real food on March 12, 2006, 19:11:30
:D I have just activated my first web site, giving general information on suitable fruit and vegetable varieties to grow on allotments in the West of Scotland. There are also suggestions for organising and working your plot.
While the information is geared towards the colder parts of Britain, Southerners may also find some things of interest. To see the site, go to

Congratulations! It's really informative and clear. The info about potato varieties is great. I like the colour coding of blue and green too. Almost makes me want to move to Scotland :P

Good luck - Lishka :)

The modern varieties sold nowadays, seem to be self fertile, and you should get plenty of fruit, provided you net them against the pterodactyls (birds!) and pick any fruit as soon as its ripe to defeat the wasps.
