Hi,
Have been on council list for ages and still have 20 people above me but the New Allotment Company have started up literally down the road from us. Basically fully prepared soil, lockable storage, toilets, free water and manure, parking, etc etc plus discount for council list people. It's 1000 sq ft and in the agreement I have to have a quarter being cultivated by three months but I was planning to get that much planted at least anyway. So basically what can I get in now, looking for good ground cover to stop weeds etc as well as some quick return. I was thinking spinach, lettuces, swedes(?) radishes, potatoes (just have time I think) and then some garlic later on in the year. Any other suggestions?
