Vinyl is supposed to be less likely to burn than wood. Vinyl is supposed to be less likely to melt than aluminum. And there's less rust. It also comes with a vinyl floor.

When are you ment to clean the bee hotels? Do the bees not stay in there year round?

Excellent video, honest and fun,what a great idea, I would of sprayed it green tho lol, I'm new to hot composting and I can't get my heat up either so I'm going to add more nitrogen and water, thank you 😊

Did you ever find that asparagus crown again?

Beautiful! I’m doing the same thing now on an old farm

I just use coffee filters with used ground grounds, Bermuda grass clippings (some completely dried out, some still freshly-cut green), torn up brown paper that typically comes in Amazon packages, maybe a small bowl of vegetable/fruit scraps, and that’s it. I do it in 5 gallon buckets that I drilled holes in. I already made 4 buckets worth of compost that I started back in May, and they’re just about ready to use. I have another one that I’m currently adding. I really believe our 100° weather and my frequent mixing has helped it all decompose so fast. Since I barely use any food in my compost, it hasn’t attracted any pests nor does it stink. I always have a bucket ready to continually add to.

Yes, you don't need one. I used to use a WW11 bayonet to deal with Buttercups. Trowels and forks can do most things. Why spend the money. I spent a lot on mine and it was worth it. It's a joy to use and benefits from that indefinable feel where you know that nothing else will do. A sort of kinesthetic umami. Okay, enough of the pretentious crap. Oh, and the serrated edge is brilliant for root pruning.

You could have created one video, and edited the filler.

Hi! About "mixing" materials by chopping them with a lawn mower... Mowers CAN get greasy and oily and you don´t want that in your compost. There can also be other fluids and chemicals that end up in your cut materials, specially if it´s a gas mower. There is nothing wrong with manual mixing so why complicate it.

Haha that water is totally a leaky pipe of that house opposite!

Good video. I have removed my old wooden shed and have 8 wooden beams for the base of my new Keter shed. This means the base will have gaps in between although the beams are level. I wanted this to keep the height as we had flooding last year. If I put mdf on the floor on the inside, do you think this is feasible or do I need to remove the beams and have a completely level base for the Keter shed floor.

Rinse out the left over dregs from your milk bottles ! microbes in the dregs accelerate the break down of your carden waste, works brilliant with grass cuttings and green waste

How many and how large holes did you make on the bottom?

Omg how are you so hot? That little dance at the end, I had to take a break. 🤣

As for pronouncing compost; someone needs to get a life. And as you said, we both know what we are talking about.

This is happening worldwide. All my waste goes in my compost bin. Nothing goes to the landfill. The compost industry is... huuuuuuge.carbon footprint they use chemicals to add to it also. I save my seeds and grow all my own veg and they travel to my plate from my garden not on international freights.... How much does the carbon footprint for the illegal cloud seeding cost for the entire UK? Silver oidide is showing up in our soil and things arent growing. Even in communist countries they grow their own vegetables. This is demonic. To do this to us is to kill us.

You need to watch Douglas Tallamy. He has done decades of research on the exact topics you state for which there has been no research done(albeit in North America). Homegrown National Park is exactly about changing habitat for native fauna one garden at a time. But he also says that 70-80% native plantings is ok for this purpose and you can plant other species as long as they are not invasive to your region. As well, although pollinators and birds will use on-natives, they have different nutritional value. Our natives in the Great White North have higher fat content, etc for surviving extreme winters and for migration energy.

I don’t agree with this. It has too much human intervention, the bees need to be hardy enough under natural conditions to find a suitable home and stay there over winter without humans moving the wood inside. Doing that will foreseeably reduce the resilience of the bees.

You've done an amazing job with the plot Tom 🙌💚👏

Even seasoned gardeners have failed crops just dont give up, dont forget feeding your plants and you'll be suprised 😊

A large cooler.

Thank you for the information...very useful!!!!😊

Very helpful.

silky is 10x better but he cant earn commission on it thats why he likes the crap one

New subscriber from the states...you need to get yourself a stirrup hoe to cut the weeds off. Had problems with Canadian thistle which sends out runners as well. The more you pull them the more they sprout up along the runners. Keep cutting them off and they eventually give up.

It’s all about control just like lock down was; it’s all part of trying to take freedom away from people, very concerning as I make my living by selling the food I grow and feel my calling is to encourage as many peoples i can to grow their own food as well 💔

Great job you have done their, in what was a very rough plot.

Some good tips there.. I really want to do this.... yellow rattle ... could I use the no dig method with card board and compost?

Plot looking excellent - the progress is so obvious from when you started to where you are now! I took over a neglected garden in much the same state (thankfully no mares-tail but essentially all brambles) and its easy to get drawn into the remaining negatives when youre looking at it day to day (ie the returning strongholds of weeds) but important to remind yourself where you started and where youve got to! Also your own plot always looks worse to you than it does to others I think…. Not an expert by any means but ive grown cardoons as ornamentals for the past three years and non have been under 5ft before flowering so id hazard a guess yours are chokes and hopefully just bulking up? 🤞🏻 Maybe part of it is also just trying to make things work to your schedule - maybe moving the tower into the shaded side of the shed and putting up a gutter or small container for drip irrigation might make it work better? Keep up the good work as its obviously paying off - makes me feel idle by comparison

Loving watching the progress you’ve made on the allotment. I use my back garden, to grow all sorts of veggies. So therapeutic 🌱

I'm a bit concerned about shop bought insect hotels. I found three dead bees in the packaging. How they got there I don't know. As they were in plastic bags and clearly had never been outside. The bamboo, drilled wooden dowels were clean not weathered. Fern cones might be the source, but if so could manufactures be actually harming bees in the process of making hotels like this?

It's not about comparison, it's about personal joy. Thank you. Uncle Billy and Uncle Bruce truck in loads of manure and bagged compost, and they've had decades to improve their soil. Mine has not been improved at all! My little first-year garden IS doing well in rock-hard soil, because I have squash and tomato fruits growing. That's amazing.

I can't think why people who have the space to grow their own food, don't. Oh, it's too much work. It takes too much time. It's too expensive. I can't grow anything. Nope. Anyone can grow a few pots for not much money. I'm lucky, I have space for a large garden, and while it does come with some costs, I manage to do it on a pretty good budget. Tonight's meal was provided from the garden. Cabbage, onion, garlic, potatoes and peppers. I did have to buy the sausages, but that meant that tonight's dinner for three cost me less than $6 CAD and there's leftovers for lunch tomorrow. You have made huge progress with that allotment space in a short time. Well done.

That's one hell of a plot. I've just taken one over in the same state... Back breaking..👍🍺

open gardens are great for making yu feel inadequate! Keep it up just don't dwell on the failures, there's still lots of successes

Gteen curly kale for overwintering....always something to eat..if you can keep the pigeons off
