Trevor and the Rotorvator - Feb 09

Here are some pics of the way the plot was rotovated back in Feb o9 - we were quite against it for a while as its very frowned upon in allotment circles - under the breath its seen as lazy and apart from that if you chop one weed into 6 pieces aparently you get 6 more weeds - since this was done it is now covered with a carpet of fresh green weeds but they are very easily removed when we need to use that end of the plot - I also wanted to preserve Trevors back and mine - and it saved time which is our most precious commodity on the plot when you work full time - so Id rather be doing something else other than hours and hours of digging - this is actually the first year ( fingers crossed ) that we will be able to use all our land - we've always had some areas covered with cardboard or carpet trying to supress the weeds. So thats why we cheated a bit!
