HI Charles,
The soil should be in good heart. The bed was well prepared before planting 5 years ago. Since then, I dress it every autumn after cutting down the ferns with seaweed fertiliser, rock dust, and a liberal dressing of manure. I keep the bed well weeded, and endeavour to keep it well watered. The soil itself is, I think, London loam(?), so not too heavy and not too light.
I have been practising the no-dig approach for at least 3 years, so my allotment as a whole should be full of healthy “vibes”
