My Grandfather (a man who was still running three allotments in his 70's) had no permanent paths at all in any of his plots, but that site had been laid out with four feet of common-ground between plots and eight foot headlands (large enough to back a 'muck cart' down them). These were original MoF...

Thanks for the support. C D makes a case for minimal paths and no wood edge

Loads of questions to mull over... Days leading up to impact What signs will be enough to get the public panicking and therefore stocks diminishing? As we know many won't bother, but many will. Will it need a government call to 'get prepared'? Notwithstanding an event can happen unanticipated at any...

Had just a couple more hours at the lottie today and had a gentle disagreement with my neighbour, so canvassing opinions here..... My quarter plot is made up of 6 rectangles about car parking space size. Three of them have timber surrounds made of planks, but they are half rotten. Between the subplo...

Got me thinking silly and irreverent, even macabre thoughts. If a keen allotmenteer is buried, should their family grow veggies on the grave in homage? I wonder what the council would do. :) Sorry. Veg grown ? Without doubt :lol: They probably have silly rules about bonfires, keeping chickens, buil...

I thought blight was airborne and not dormant in soil?

Here's the wrinklies, by the way. I'm surprised they stored nearly a year and I do hope they flourish.

Sorry to hear that it's kyboshed your holiday. Get well soon. We had it a few weeks back and it was just a nuisance. That old lady was lucky, by the sound of it. We, as a society, and as preppers, must be wary that we are just a small mutation away from a whole new deadly pandemic..... Something we ...

A few questions about Spud seeds. It's going to be a mixture this year..... Some 'volunteer' spuds that i dug out when i prepared the ground. They're going back in. Some non-controversial bought seed spuds, well chitted. Some BIG spuds that self chitted in the veg rack. Those are getting sliced up. ...

Nowt wrong with being frugal. Some say I'm as frugal as a duck's ,erm , back end. Sounds like you've got the process sorted. Basically the same process as I've done with buildings but with the advantage that the timbers are easier to work with. Nothing like a 16 ft peice of semi green oak at anythi...
