To say I am annoyed is an understatement.


Why not share with someone who wants to do their fair share? Advertise
at
a gardening club locally and I am sure someone will respond/
At least that way you could manage.

OMG this would set off a family disagreement. That's why it's difficult..


Why not adopt a style of gardening that doesn't require weeding. Ie
pick plants that are vigorous enough and tall enough to cope with
weeds. More trees and bushes than little carrots.

The whole idea was to have an organic vegetable plot to feed six people.
I made it clear that if I provided the land and most of the seeds, and sowed
them, he would do most of the work.
I don't really want to go into my health problems on here, but it was a good
deal for my brother.
It's impossible to get an allotment here - there aren't any. *Hence the
council stalking me for years to allow them to have my paddock..they were so
desperate that they said they would name it after me "Websell Gardens" *Bad
luck that council ;-)

Well, if you reevaluate how youre doing it it sounds like it could be
a real success. Weed survivors are basically small trees, bushes,
climbers, and tough vigorous lower growers. From those you can have
lots of fruit, nuts, teas, and very limited salad. Retain nettle
patches for a vegetable
