hi anthony and welcome to the Vine!

Have you seen this months GYO magazine? there is an excellent article called " ground rules" which gives lots of helpful advice regarding what to do with your ground at the moment.

Also, there is an article about "green manures" - I'd heard of them, and also read about them on the Vine, but until I read the article, hadn't really considered using them!

Guess who's ordered her "green manure" seeds and is eagerly awaiting their delivery?!

Hope this helps! DDL

Lol DDL, I said that, but being as Mr Dobby is from Yorkshire and is a tad thrifty (to say the least) and gets staff purchase from Tescos it means he can get it cheaper from work, or so he recons! Lol! Men!

Got a flyer from Ken Muir the other day and if you ring 01778 392497 or web site www.growfruitandveg.co.uk/KM.HTM and quote GYO KM/06 you get to subscribe for £7.25 for every 3 issues you get a free £15. Runs until the end of the year so am thinking of going for it - saves me a trip to the newsagent.
