Allotments 4 All

This is a great general gardening site  ;)

A friend at work is looking at doing some lunar planting and he gave me the following website to have a look at ... they're based in Somerset

http://www.greenharmonyltd.co.uk

Looks like plenty of midnight visits to the allotment!

good page on soil and green manure

Havent had the time to look at many but i've just looked at the one on the Beechgrove Garden, which I found very interesting. I will look at some of the others when i have more time

Thanks!

Hi folks,

It is really good to have the links to websites for in depth information and extremely useful.

Just a slight note of dissention tho, all of you who have websites, and very good they are too, would be nice not to have them advertised in postings.  If we click on profiles, can see and access websites if we want to.  Would prefer that websites were not in my face during normal postings.  

After all, this is Dan's site, not an advertising board!

And, just in case wondering, not aimed at you Gavin cos u are always very discreet!  Just wanted to make that clear!

I agree- think it's best that links should be discreet

I know I've said it before, & it's late in the season to repeat it, but what the hell?

For those who want to go a stage further - I reckon twowests is great. = Tim

But Muddy_Boots and ross, if they didn`t advertise their web sites with every posting we might not realise how knowledgeable and experienced they are.

- steady girls & boys - steady! = Tim

Hi all - I liked this one http://appleorchard.members.easyspace.com/!

I've never tried seed-saving (at least not properly)  - but found this this morning.

I can't remember why I got to this one but it may provide hope to those who need it:

Gavin, have you been to this one?

Thanks John - and http://www.seedsavers.org/Home.asp, and http://www.irishseedsavers.ie/.  Looks like another fascinating little project to get my teeth into ;D

All best, Gavin

Gavin,

What's happened to your diary page ? I was avidly following your diary for your old allotment but when you moved the diary has stopped.

I have only got my lottie in July so I was hoping to use the experiences in your diary as my guide  :-[

Please feel free to add sites to the 'Top Site' feature of the new front end, at

Cheers

Hi Dan - the "submit link" link gives an error message

Quote! Error !
Sorry
You are not authorized to Submit a Site

:(  otherwise I'd have tried "transplanting" the healthy links in this thread, and weeded the rest.  :(

All best - Gavin

Oops,

You should be ok now gavin.

Cheers

Dan

One down - ??? to go?

Thanks, Dan - that step now works fine (I think) for somebody submitting their own site, if they've got the requisite graphics sorted out.

How about for submitting a site that's not your own, though?  Then I need the webmaster's e-mail, and addresses for their banners - I suspect I could get those for Phil Cooper's seed supplier site, but what about a worthwhile resource outside A4A?  The ODP allotments cat, for example?  Or the Deputy PMs Allotment site?

Is there any way of suggesting sites (not one's own) for consideration/inclusion?  Appreciate the need for control - otherwise we have hundreds of ads for rip-off Viagra!

All best - Gavin

Hi  I'm new to this site so don't know if I'm in the right place but if anyone is looking to rent a plot in the Derby area could I plug our new website at http://www.firsestateallotments.co.uk
