Unless you have had some rain recently (and I dont mean a couple of
showers but real rain) then I would say get some water onto the land
then dig it a little before getting the machinery out. Without water my
allotment`s clay soil is just like concrete and will not budge for my
5hp MTD at all!

Go to your local seed merchant and get a mixture heavy in rye grass.
That should be quite hard wearing.

Hi Chris,

I did wonder about the hardness of the soil, so last weekend I took my fork
and tested a few areas, they turned over quite easily - much to my surprise!

Thanks for the seed advice.

Dave
