giley, I've also got about half the pklot that i'm not going to get round to...(about 15M length worth) What are you planning to cover with?

Good luck with your spud planting... we have our main crop to go in, which should be Saturday!

Regarding covering the land that wont be used... we are used a huge piece of tarpaulin,an old rug and also some weed suppressant fabric that I bought from Sainsbury's. When the winter comes, I am going to throw it back and put some manure on there over winter... hopefully that will help the soil
