Hi all,

A couple of allotment related questions,

I have lots of Lupin seeds collected from my garden and have read that
Lupins make a good green manure being a legume and provided they are dug
back in before they flower.

My question is can I use any lupin variety as I have lots of seeds from
my garden varieties.


Also, is there any problem with planting two varieties of sweet corn. I
was advised by someone that because they are wind pollinated it is
advisable not to plant two different varieties on the same plot.

Cheers,

Paul.

Yes.

That applies primarily to the "extra sweet" varieties.
