I have just had the privilage of taking over a plot at my local allotment

I know we are well into the growing season now and have loads of digging to do. However, I would like to get some things planted ASAP to crop this year. All suggestions greatfully recieved!

Try some lettuce and radish they grow fairly quick and youll feel like you've grown something. Try a local garden centre sometimes they have veg plants that are ready to transplant. Peas, runner beans can still be sown check the backs of seed packets they all give indications of when to sow. Buy a good book. Hope some of this helps

I put in two dwarf bean bushes a fortnight ago and their already 6" tall.
