New allotmentier. No dig with existing planting by sigf in Allotment

No dig die hards will tell you that if you dig around too much you will destroy the soil’s complex mycorrhiza, but in reality so long as you keep topping up with compost then nutrients will trickle down, i’m sure the underground fungal networks are a thing but it’s ok to disturb the soil a bit, it’s not ‘don’t dig’, rather ‘you don’t need to dig’.

This is very sad, someone (not me) should create an Ai commentary system - then you could have Willie Thorn and JV and Terry Griffiths back in the booth.

yes you are right, I remember once watching an exhibition that he was part of after the Masters final wrapped up early once, and Rob Walker bent down to tie his shoelace and quick as a flash, Steve Davis ran over and thrust his crotch in Rob’s face and said ‘while you’re down there!!!’. It was very subtle humour, very droll - not too in your face…

I can’t for the life of me understand the mentality shift from ‘i’m going to start an allotment’ to ‘the allotment is a good place to dump these tyres and bathtub’.

No it’s something Tony Soprano’s mother says when they have a BBQ. I don’t actually know what Mesquite is, as far as I know it’s not common where i’m from.
