LeezoGreenFinger Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 ill be starting in 2 weeks maybe before, luckily for me i just got to do some weed whacking and hole digging not to much really more getting the soil to the site being the bitch. last years patch the stems just got got a chop. do think the roots left to rot will help with planting in the same spot...sounds like it makes sense. :/ also wanna give mulching a bash. any one know if this is good and worth doing?

FarmerWiz Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Im going to be so behind this season , i'm abroad and will be up on till late next month so will definitely be off pace with you guys My spot still needs abit of tlc, soil & seeds haven't been ordered yet either so i will have to be in overdrive once i get back Just out of curiosity, how many plants you planning on doing in that patch you got there Tigs? spot seems kinda out in the open, but i'm sure you know what your doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigseyjnr Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Lovely plot tigseyjnr i imagine you are going to get numbers in there or just a few biggens ? I hope no1 walks past that fence mate unless its yours.. thanks dude. unfortunatly, it's not all for mj, just the strip at the back, and a patch in the far left corner. i've been given the space in return for digging the patch over. hopefully i'll be allowed to put about 6 plants there (but i'm pushing for more ) it's a mate's patch. the field that backs onto it is for horses, and he knows the owner. it's on safe land spot seems kinda out in the open but i'm sure you know what your doing to be honest, it looked alot more open than i remember it being. but it grows up pretty wild through spring, and i know it's a safe spot. there's a stream running behind the patch, no-one but horses and my mate use the field, there's already hawthorn fashioned as fences, and there will be veg growing there too.

CANTTHINKOFAUSERNAME Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Hi GGers been out 1 night in Feb to dig 50 holes at 1 plot it took up a lot of space & I have now convinced my partner that 30 plants will be the most we plant this year..... but you all know how we love to start more as the last go outside Anyway, I didn't get any photos it is too open & too dark at 2am but I was out this morning at 6am & have 1 or 2. Would of taken more but my hands were dirty & didn't wanna keep taking my phone out my pocket... Start of with a long walk, a new route if the times right I bagged about 30ltrs of well rotted chicken & horse manure 10ltrs for each hole... And we (different partner to the 50 planter) also grabbed the cages from the stash, along with the slug protectors. We dug out the roots from last years plants, put in the manure, than backfilled with the soil we dug out. We will take that back out when we return with a coco brick for each hole. I'm going the add fbb with th coco bricks so hopefully it will soak into the coco as it swells in the rain there is also a patato planter there from last year, so I'm thinking an auto in that too, let's hope the think different arrive for that any way here's how I left the plot not too long ago.... Fresian Dew in all 3 holes & think different in the planter this is my only, all female plot. See you around & crack on with the prep, its not long before we go planting....
