Welcome! Advice? Well, you'll already have read most of it, as we've had quite a few new plotters recently. Same as always:
Dig some, cover some, plan your plot layout, get your seed collection together.
Right then, off you go!
;D
Welcome! And don't do too much digging at once. Stand back from time to time for a ciggy and to admire your handiwork.
Welcome to the forum have fun.

Right.. where did I put that petrol strimmer!

Should be strimming Sat weather permitting,
The Wife and myself have been up there ? hmm litter picking trying to remove anything you wouldnt want to meet with a strimmer,
If you haven't already the hand held litter pickers can found in the pound shops, saves all that bending mrf. ;D ;D ;D

Good to see you are back to the earth...
;D
at least you can see what you've got now ;D
Hi mrf94, we were in exactly the same position as you this time last year, new plot which we had just just strimed down to get rid of 6 years of weeds and brambles. We have ended up having a brilliant growing year despite the appaling summer weather. I hope you enjoy it, good luck and welcome to this website!! People here really are great, you'll get all the advice and shoulders to cry on here!!! ;D
