Over the first winter, I planted grazing rye and winter tares in part of the plot and it grew very well. A few weeks before the bed was needed, I cut it all down and covered it with brown mulch and permeable membrane. The green manure showed no signs of re-growing and everything my wife planted did well – but she still complained that the soil felt ‘hard’ just below the surface (our soil is clay). Typically, no-dig systems involve the addition of 5cm of compost onto the growing beds annually. An average 250M2 (10 rods) allotment plot would require 12.5 cubic metres of finished compost each year. That’s a very large amount of compost. The system is usually combined with close-spaced planting and mulching to avoid bare ground. This method of digging is suitable for cleaning the soil surface of any debris and non-persistent weeds. This is often the best option for working with irregularly-shaped beds or around existing plants.

Hi guys – having reached retirement, I am able to share my wife’s lifelong interest in allotmenteering and we took on a new plot two years ago which we have just about finished tidying up. My ‘old school’ wife favours digging and leaving the soil bare over winter, but I am not convinced – for allotmenteers, the difference in yield between dig and no-dig seems to be marginal. First of all, no-digging is not a new idea. Parisian market gardeners in the 19th Century used a no-dig method, continually adding huge amounts of rotted horse manure to their plots. Adopt this method on regularly-shaped plots, where it's important that the soil has an even texture. Single digging is also useful when large quantities of organic matter need to be incorporated. Look for tools with easy-to-hold grips. You can find ergonomic hand tools, either with the handle at a right-angle or with curved handles. You may find these more comfortable.

Fork over the bottom of the trench. This is where the name 'double digging' comes from, as you dig twice the depth of usual, single digging WAGES. (Hansard, 5 June 1939)". api.parliament.uk.

The soil structure is maintained and the micro-flora especially symbiotic mycorrhizal fungi are minimally disturbed You also mention mustard, but I don’t know if our plot has any clubroot (my wife hasn’t yet grown any brassicas in our two-year tenancy). I guess growing some mustard might be a good way to find out.Mr Jocelyn L H Chase ran the trial at their Chertsey trial grounds over a period of 7 years. A plot was divided into two with half being run on a digging system as before and the other half on a no-dig system. Both were run organically.
