Title: Going to be short of time
Post by: caroline7758 on March 30, 2009, 18:21:34
I got a second part-time job last week (CAB is one of the few growth areas in the recession!) so will be working 5 days a week from 20th April. Just wondering whether to

a) Go ahead with everything I'd planned for my plot and just try to find enough time

b) Grow less

c) Twist my OH's arm to help me!

Any time/labour-saving tips appreciated!

Cover up any area you are not planning to use with weed fabric and plant some pumpkins through it. They will take up alot of room and not need that much maintainance.

Yes, and does most of the cooking! Just doesn't see any pleasure in the rest!
