Well today was very productive built the other 2 raised beds. My 3rd bed is a no dig bed as I've broken my back digging the rest over...
I have covered this bed in newspapers and cardboard and then I'm filling it up with 1part topsoil 1 part mushroom compost and 1part soil improver.
By the time the newspaper and cardboard has broken down the grass underneath should have composted down.
Next is the raspberries, these are overgrown with more grass...

Day in the life of a grower who has just upgraded to an allotment, day to day updates of how and what is going on whether its in the garden, greenhouse or on the allotment. Everything about growing from seed to table and everything in the middle. Hopefully interesting, informative and honest. I will include the fails and the successes. Enjoy the journey each season.
