Finally got the plot today since September. Surprise surprise it’s a state. Managed to sort a fair amount. Mostly weeding and removing dead dying plants from last season. Cardboard and wood chip will solve most of the problems. Also need to find some Hornsey manure for some no dig beds.
I took on another plot last year and it was a state then. Even worse now. The guy who had it basically screwed 4 pallets together to make a square, lined it with plastic and then filled with, anything he could get his hands on by the looks of things. Dismantled those put them in a pile to burn. Now need to remove the 1/4 ton of soil and remove the plastic. Level it all out. Cardboard and no dig beds all round. Also managed to clip the cherry tree bushes into shape and thin out. I was going to. Do the same to the massive pear tree but it was covered in blossom and bees so left it👍🏼
