Allotment on Folly Island
Hi all,
I have just recieved my 'key' to an allotment on folly island. It is my first one and is quite run down.
I was wondering if there was anyone on here who also has an allotment on the island and could give me some advice on how to get it up to scratch to at least grow something this year.
I am local and would be happy to meet someone when you are next down.
Cheers
Lou

Lou,
there are a few empty ones around mine so you could be a new neighbour, I'll look out for you. For this year I'd recommend some french beans, maybe some salad stuff, courgettes are great but don't plant too many, squash if you can get some plants, etc. First advice is to get your fork out and get digging - ENJOY!

Welcome new neighbour, I have a confession to make I nicked a few of your raspberries when I was there earlier - a bit small but very tasty! I will introduce myself when we meet.

HA, I make a start this week to get the grass and the weeds out. I will then cover it and start to plant bits as I go.
