"Always hand dig as much out as possible as tap roots on docks, dandelions can survive up to nearly 2 years under membrane. When you have done it I would cover in a thick layer of well rotted manure then rotivate in to the soil in the spring."

"I like the new format. Every now and again everything needs a freshen up."

"Always good to pick new info in the fight against slugs. Especially with a wet year like this one."

"I'm sold on them im trying them next year. Any other suggestions pease?"

"It's been the worst year weather wise ive ever known. I'm just hoping it gets better and some sun comes out to ripen fruit and veg up. My dads tomatoes have been a complete failure and that never happens he's not impressed."
