Great thing about modern communication is the wealth of knowledge out there and the tips from fellow bloggers. Have been reading #allotment65's excellent blog for tips:

Some takeaway tips I will be using this year:

• Plant strawberries in weed suppressant fabric
• Use cardboard in wigwams for beans to suppress weeds
• Plant squashes in old compost bags
• Cover manure / compost pile with weed suppressant fabric and use it to grow squashes
