    My Allotment Photos

    I took my allotment over in February and the whole allotment was a waste land that hadn't been used for ten years. After three and a half months of hard slog it now resembles what I would consider an allotment!

    I've taken some photos: http://photos.yahoo.com/vicpivo as a mini celebration of how far I have progressed! I know I've still got a lot to do, but I am appreciating the steps I have taken so far!

    Any hints, tips or suggestions after looking at the photos would be great.

    Cheers

      Looks splendiferous Vicpivo. You've certainly done the work there. I can't make any suggestions about your crops - they look great, but on the technical side (no expert here) I found the yahoo site a bit difficult and limited. You might like to make a blog on blogspot. It would give you a lot more flexibility with your pics. Just a suggestion.

        Fantastic! thanks for sharing those. Has given me ideas for planting a permanent fruit bed without weeding!

          That really does look the business, vicpivo. Well done - I bet you're really proud! The main advice now is - keep it up! Difficult not to as it does become addictive!
