                  Blimey, got your work cut out there Kaz.

                  Good set of pics:thumbsup:

                  Consider the use of Geotextile for the bits you can't get done straight away.

                  i was going to use DPM that i have spare, would that be ok ? i know that i would be able to use Geotex again but am trying to save some pennies, i know he has said that he will get what is needed but i think making raised beds and tools(no way i am taking mine up there as i will still be doing stuff in my garden) are more essential and i dont want to scare him off !!! :dbgrtmb:

                  There's a lot to do Kaz, but it's not all weeds, plus you have some kale or cabbages at one end and a few onions so it's a start :dbgrtmb:

                  Just take your time and do a little bit at a time.

                  Comfrey is good :) When it makes a nice crop of leaves cut it down and stick it in a bucket (or water-butt) and cover with water, and maybe put a board and a couple of bricks on the top. After a couple of weeks it will stink (no ... trust me ... it will REALLY stink!), that's how you know that it is ready :)

                  Dilute down to the colour of weak tea and water onto plants that are flowering / fruiting. Free Potash fertilizer :thumb:

                  Hopefully its the Bocking 14 (sterile) variety - otherwise it will be inclined to self-seed all over the plot.
