    grand, thanks for the advice much appreciated.

    my next quandary is weather to make raised beds with scaffold planks or to just mound up soil. i have heard that the plank system harbors slugs.

    then i have to consider paths. i was thinkin of laying weed plastic then putting wood chippings on top, but to do this i guess i will have to use planks for the beds.

    thanks for the reply.

    i think i will go for the black plastic as the plot is too lardge to keep covering with cardboard.

    next spring would you suggest that i dig the plot over or re mulch with manure etc
