Have you considered no-dig gardening or even perhaps hydroponics? I have been experimenting with organic hydroponics for a couple of years but have not published any results (which have been variable) yet.

:flower: I have indeed Nev.

However, hydroponic supplies come across the sea from England and costa bomba to be delivered.

I wanted to buy £30 worth of hydroponic feeds for my herbs and the delivery was an extra £20 which in the end just seemed ridiculously expensive and I ended up using common ferts from the hardware shop which were not as good.

It would be a big outlay to set up hydroponics. I buy hydroponic veggie/flowering solutions to add to my herb watering from http://www.growell.co.uk/ .

But a polytunnel and a lorryload of soil would do the trick very well for veggies, strawberries, tomatoes etc. :cat:
