The soil is heavy clay and usually not easy to dig. But I have devised a system which makes it a bit easier. Firstly I go along the row making cross cuts with my spade approximately the width of the spade and then dig the row. This makes sure that I don't end up with too much soil on the spade.
I also spent some time on line purchasing seeds. I have decided to try and grow parsnips this year - normally I have germination difficulties, but my allotment neighbour has recommended started them off in a greenhouse and then transplanting them. I have also bought some melon seeds - just incase the summer in 2007 is as hot as 2006.
