Hi spudkins,

I am struggling to keep up with the watering, but remember that as soon as it rains you will be surrounded with new weeds.  Thats the fun of allotments ..... ::)

Hi LilacSandy,

That is the problem with it raining.  Any advise on how to keep on top of the weeds that are growing?

We finally got a good rainfall this morning, and the weeds were already thriving  >:( The couch is incredible this year, everywhere I look. Even on ground I didn't rotovate, merely loosened with a fork.

The old, re-cycled jokes are the best!
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

I believe the weather is scared of raining myself.

It looked so promising this morning, but I should have realised that a north east wind wouldn`t yield much.

A meagre 0.3 mm from three hours dampness. :(
