Ours uses weedkiller on all unused plots. It's not a problem and ensures you have clean ground to start with. Anything else is just a backbreaking fight against perennial weeds which you may not win. Glysophate is not a pernicious chemical and quickly breaks down on contact with soil. Are there a lot of unused plots? I've read my council has a waiting list of 400 (on an allotment total of 600 - which doesn't sound like a lot) -- http://www.orderonlinepickupinstore.co.uk Ah fetch it yourself if you can't wait for delivery http://www.freedeliveryuk.co.uk Or get it delivered for free |
