Hi all,

Only last week aquired my allotment. Needs to be dug over, just wondering if its too late now to put manure down, especially in my potatoe and onions beds, or should i just make do and hope the soil has enough nutroition for this year?!

Cheers, stuart.

As long as it's well rotted - not too late for those.

I manured my spud bed about a week before I planted them with no problems at all last year.  The manure was well rotted though.

I do mine AS I plant!
