Well I've finally gone and got myself an allotment (125 sq meters)

Is this a typical size? My community garden plot, which I realize
isn't like an allotment, was 9 sq meters (20'x40')

ITYM 90 sq metres.......

and kept me *very*
busy. The most successful gardeners in the group were more like the
tortise than the hare -- regular attention rather that heroic spurts
of energy. I didn't quote Janet's post, but it sparked many nods of
agreement. Particularly in the area of not over-extending. one's self.
Also labeling or marking things. Cartoon illustrations of paper seed
packets on a stick notwithstanding, they will deteriorate or blow
away. Although by the time they decay, the plants may be large enough
to identify without them.

The walking around and 'gazing' is one of the best parts. :-) Enjoy!

But yes, there's nothing quite like watching Creation at work, and so
muvh the better if you've had a hand in it.
