Can someone link me to a 'grow your own veg in a 3x3m plot' website please?

Last year I came acrossa website where it was suggesting you could almost be self sufficient with vegetables. I think it was suggesting using a 3x3m plot, and I'm sure it gave you a planting layout and the rough timings?

I've changed computers since then, and so now I've lost my link. Can anyone help?

link to a useful blog site

That's quite a good site, thanks. Will go away and really it more thoroughly now.

Any other suggestions?

If you find it let me know. We have 1.5 x 3 and I never get the planting right - mostly as I am over enthusiastic and plant the earlier stuff in the wrong place!

Any idea of what site it was? Was it Organic or a TV programme one? Or American?

I like this as a basic guide.

Not quite sure what you mean but there are some good products here for creating raised veg beds

Might it have been based on square foot gardening?

I love the RHS website, especially the month by month bit.

I'm sure it was a uk website, and by some 'big' gardening company / magazine / TV program - Gardeners World type thing.

Not quite what you wanted, but Rocket Gardens do a starter pack suitable for gardens around that size. They have an online plan for planting in 2.5m x 4m, but you could probably move the lettuce and rocket around a bit (and miss out a bit of lettuce) to get closer to 3m x 3m.
