Re: How many hours a day does it take?

I have an allotment,which I use "No Dig"principles on.I work full time,so my plot has to be as easy maintenance as possible.I average spending 4 hrs per week working on it during the growing season (April-Sept),and thats basically just abit of light weeding,watering,planting and harvesting.
