Welcome back.
Well were almost half way through November so this is, in fact, where I will begin. The days are becoming dark and dreary and now is the time to start looking at and nurturing the very thing that makes your plants grow - the soil! So, While there is still a bit of time before December,when the ground will become too sodden or hardened with frost. Dig out old plants and weeds and their roots. Turn your soil with a spade or fork working in as much manure or compost as you can. During the next few months the worms will draw this compost down replacing essential nutrients and improving the overall quality of the soil. If your allotment is new to you, try to spend some time re-organising and, thus, maximising your growing space. Do essential fence repairs and general tidying up.
More tips coming up in the next few days.
