Pesticide and Herbicide Use at PPAA

The PPAA would just like to remind all plot holders that – in common with all Cardiff sites – we are not an organic site, and the use of legal weed killers is allowed. However, awareness of neighbouring plot holders’ wishes not to use chemicals on their plots should be born in mind when using sprays etc. on your own plot, and every effort should be made not to allow chemicals to ‘drift’.

Also the maintenance, and keeping clear of the of the pathways between plots, is the joint responsibility of all the adjoining plot holders. Please remember too, that whether or not you personally need to use a given path by your plot, another plot holder may well do for access to their plot, and to water troughs etc., and all plot holders are entitled to use it.

If you want to be sure that your neighbour won’t use herbicides on the shared path by your plot, then then only way is to keep it weed-free yourself!
