Sarah Rideout replied to Lee Simmonds's discussion Top Three Tips?"Hi Lee, depending on how established the garden is its worth not doing too much in the first season so you can see what will emerge on its own through the seasons.

Flighty replied to Lee Simmonds's discussion Top Three Tips?"Hello and welcome, I agree with all that's been said! I've had my small half plot allotment for nearly four years and only now feel that it's as I want it. Gardening is not the instant fix as so often shown on TV but…"

Hi Everyone, I have just found this site, via My Tiny Plot - both are excellent and I have happily spent this evening reading and reading, trying to learn as much as possible!
