    Just stumbled across this video after starting to clear my very busy, overly neglected garden. I'm very impressed that you were happy to help David out in that way, many people wouldn't even consider doing such work without being paid some money. It looks good too, well done!!!

    There was lots of good stuff on there. I think I spotted a mature artichoke? Good that you mention checking what you've got. If you're not experienced, well worth confirming with fellow plot holders to make sure you're not chucking stuff worth keeping or donating. Imagine throwing away £100 worth of flower tubers or digging up a mature artichoke or asparagus The HORROR! 😮😮

    Cardboard and newspaper is a great way to help keep the weeds down. Pumpkin squash potatoes tomatos and courgette are good plants to use to suppress the weeds through the main season of growth.

    What would be the mechanical equivalent tool for de-weeding and clearing a new, messy allotment joe?
    Iv just out my name down for an allotment, and doing some research. Thinking I would like to clear the whole space, out some raised beds in then keep the rest of the space clear for easier maintenance.

    You mentioned you needed garotta for your compost pile. I know you a fan of wilkinson from previous videos so may already know this but in my local wilko store just a few days ago I purchased boxes of garotta for half price in the end of range reductions. As well as loads of other stuff. All sold out online but some still available in stores. Nice work by the way

    • @chrismellor1854

      Even better now just been in again. My store know me by name now. It's now 75% off so only £1.25 instead of a fiver

      Chris Mellor could have sworn I replied to you on this, sorry my bad. I did go into wilko after reading your comment and they had it but it was £5 still, my local wilko refuse to reduce the garden products as everyone seems to get reductions but me lol thanks though I very much appreciated you telling me. Cheers

    Just found you! hay! Anything with blight should be burned as a rule, so the spores do not get passed on. Great job 🌻🐝

    Hi apologies as I may sound silly. You said David would cover the ground but why would/should he do it if you have already dug the ground and uprooted the weeds? Is this something should be done after digging? And how long you cver it for?

    Joking aside, well done! My new allotment is horrendous, and i dont know where to start. (What makes it worse is, i was half hour late to be able to choose a different plot which had a shed a greenhouse and hardly any weeds! Typically my bad luck!
