Progress to "No- Dig", see:

Its what I do, its easy to convert if
a) your ground is free from perennial nasties, bindweed, maretails, couch and nettles
b) you can freely source well rotted FYM and/or green waste compost
I do the No dig but I would question no weeds I am still fighting the buggers and grass seed that floats about. My issue here the the trailing silverweed and everything else that trails over into the pathways into the beds. Weeding is still a flippin nightmare and with lack of time before you know it youve got trouble. Lucky for Charles he's got a lovely flat residential market garden.
Yes, the system works and growing in modules. But the ground is def not free of marestail or nettles.
