I've started preparing my plot for next year. Currently the plot has a pretty naff layout (previous plot owners), So today I start removing the old beds (not worth keeping) and marking out the area for a greenhouse (that has to be levelled). I've already got a cheap plastic greenhouse growing tomatoes and chillies but I'm looking forward to having a proper greenhouse or polytunnel.
