A couple of items from the last Allotment Holders meeting action points:
Japanese Knotweed
The Town Council’s policy regarding Japanese Knotweed is:-
The Japanese Knotweed is allowed to mature so that in October our NPTC Qualified groundsmen are able to use a special injection system to kill it.
Under no circumstances is it cut as this allows it to spread.
Himalayan Balsam
The Town Council’s policy regarding Himalayan Balsam is:-
As Himalayan Balsam is shallow rooted it is pulled out and laid down in situ to die. This is ideally done before it flowers.
(Town Clerk) to ask Groudstaff to formalise the placement of numbering posts to each allotment.
This is a winter job so I will get it programmed in during November/December when the groundstaff have finished the Autumn planting.
