I just acquired an allotment and there are lots of old tyres dotted
about.
I was hoping to stay pretty organic.
Do I need to get the tyres off quick?
Are they a source of pollution/toxins as they break down?
Thanks

Don't set fire to them. Then they should stay organic for a few more
years.

Use them for growing spuds.

and another bouus is that if they came off a Ferrari
whatever you plant in them they will really grow fast


I guess Reliant Robin tyres are no use. Slow growing and wobbly veg

Oi I had Relly Regal and it went like stink
