I'm just getting into planting mode, have been avoiding the garden for most of the winter, will look into this. I get the feeling the fartichokes I just planted will be fine but other stuff could do with a helping hand. I do tend to start most things off in the house or greenhouse, I imagine this would work better when sowing or planting straight into the ground?
Any tips for getting rid of boggy ground? The very back bed in our side garden spends much of its life looking like a paddy field - I made an effort to dig it over well last year and planted some totties, in the hope they would further break up the earth, but they never sprouted and it's as bad as ever.antdad said:no point worrying about cycles if its freezing or you have planted seed in a bog.
