How to grow vegetables without fire?
Sign on allotment site gate informs us we’re no longer allowed bonfires. At all. Anywhere.
Which raises a few questions. The first to jump to mind are:
• WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THE STUFF WE CAN’T COMPOST?
and…
• WHICH MORON THOUGHT THIS ONE UP?
No doubt more will occur to me.
In the meantime, anyone got any thoughts on how to run a large allotment without ever burning anything? For instance, what to do with blighted potato and tomato matter, couch/bindweed/brassica roots etc?
Obviously I could haul it all home in a large sack and make it the council’s problem to dispose of. Or – the obvious route – stuff it up my arse.
Anything I’ve not thought of here?
