Default Oh dear, new gardeners!

Just back from the allotment.
Do I say something if I see them or just keep quiet and let them learn the
hard way? (I suspect, damned if I do, damned if I don't)



Perhaps when you see them you could stop to chat and casually mention that
you're dying to plant out your corn, cucumber, etc., but you're having to
restrain yourself because it's far too early, and that you've got your plot
ready to put in the blocks of corn, and that this year you're determined not
to plant too many courgettes, etc., etc. They might get the hint without
you actually telling them they've made an error. If not, hard lines for
them.

Good luck
