Hi and welcome to ya Norburger. Congrats on you lottie

you must be stoked! You got it just in time for the growing season too. Got any plans yet?

**Norburger** · 20-02-2009, 09:35 AM

Little and often I am thinking to begin...

Looking for the staples really .. Spuds, carrots, courgettes etc.... The wife would like some flowers to cut esp. dahlias

Depending on its size I will try and scrounge a greenhouse or coble one together from something.

That's good. It helps to grow things you know you'll eat. Use the search function, there's loads on here about people cobbling together greenhouses and polytunnels at a reasonable price. My greenhouse I got off freecycle. I'll say this now as I'm sure loads will, Plan, Plan and Plan

or in my case plan and then ignore it

The most important thing is to just well plain ENJOY it!

Ooh, exciting! Be sure to tell us what's it's like! (but be aware that the forum will be offline this evening and tomorrow, owing to moving to new hardware).

How exciting!!...lets hope the weather is kind to you so you can enjoy the weekend outside!
..and welcome to the Vine!

Remember to take loads of photos!!!!

I remember that feeling - just be sure to stand there for a bit and take it in before you get crackin'. Photos will help you down the line when you are disheartened - dig the photos out and look at what it was.

Enjoy it.

Oh, and welcome aboard.

Software, I think - unless someone is planning to bring me a new lappy?

Excellent plot !

Went to see and I am sharing a full plot with some friends, although we are working as 2 plots... so its 100ft by 23f, inherited with shed and huge pile of muck and vehicle access. a large strawberry patch and 3 crowns of rhubarb.
