Greetings

Hi folks

Just to introduce myself. Although I have spent most of my life in the South East, I am now living in (mostly) cold and wet Lancashire, so I am on a learning curve regarding gardening! I have just taken on an allotment with my husband, who does the heavy work, bless him, and I am a keen composter - even went on a workshop about it!
Just one question at the moment - is there anything I can sow on the plot once I have dug up the new potatoes?
Looking forward to joining you all on this site.

Hi Ostara and welcome to GC. I would imagine you could sow anything on the plot after the new potatoes are out. You must be very interested if you went to a workshop for composting. Looking forward to seeing you around.

 

Hi Ostara and welcome. Last year I put in spring cabbage, kale and spinach after the spuds were out and we are still eating them now.

 

Welcome to GC, Ostara, hope you enjoy the site.

 

Hi Ostara and welcome to GC

 

Ostara, it's a pleasure to welcome you.

I say today is the first day of the rest of my life ... tomorrow may never come.

Enjoy!

 

Hi, Ostara! Welcome to GC! :D

My understanding is that you can grow anything after potatoes - they're supposed to leach the soil and get it ready for other things. I know most people who have talked to me about veg growing have used potatoes to get started on soil where it has previously been used for lawn or a flower bed.

I lived in the NW for a while, then went south for a while, and now am a lot further north still! There is life in the north!

 

Hi Ostra. and a warm welcome from me as well. Now you have joined us Lancashire lasses.
