Carrying on from yesterdays blog of making your list for your seeds it’s also time to make those plans.
When I say it’s time to make those plans you need to get yourself a pencil and paper. Get drawing your plot of how it looks like now. Then draw a plan of how you would like it to look next year.
Draw all your garden beds, garden shed, poly tunnels and greenhouse. Then draw what crops you would like to plant where.
When putting where your crops would like to be remember about companion planting and also think about where you planted crops last year and the year before. It is best to use some where they have not been for the last 2-3 years.
I love making a plan of what I want to do. Who else makes plans of the allotment and task lists?
