In the three images below you can see how I've the soil looks once you've turned it over with a fork and hoe. This I've been told is to get air into the soil as well as remove any weeds that may have started to grow.

In image 1 you may see that we've started to harvest the potatoes which have given us a beautiful crop. The potato plants have also really broken the soil up making it nice a soft. This was easy to to turn. Now all you have to remember for next year to not plant any root vegetables. We will have to wait about three as you need to have s system of rotation when grow vegetables.

Bed 2 was so much easier to work now that is has been sectioned off. You only have to turn thee area in the box. Also it's easier to remember where you left off if you go away for a drink.

Also with the bed system it is also easier to now where you left off and so when down the allotment next time, you know where to start. Bed three is where I will start on Wednesday.
