That will be beautiful compost I’m obsessed with compost making my son has now made me 4 bays!!!😁 I’ve managed to get my swede broccoli cauliflower and kale out in between the down pours, my greenhouses are busting at the seams but I still keep sowing🙈I love your channel your so lovely and show us warts n all ❤️ take care happy gardening xxx
Oooo yes, I’d love 4 bays but haven’t got the space. I’ve got 2 of the dalek type compost bins in the back garden for extra. Good job getting the brassicas out. I’m trying to get Kenny to build me a decent brassica cage this year (it’s a battle!) . Sowing seeds is like an addiction 🤣. You can’t have too many seedlings! Thanks for watching 😃
looking great and productive there, sometimes people leave the end posts high on raised beds to wrap houses around and things but it can be a right hazard, my tomato plants are tiny and I started them in March like I usually do, seems we say it every year in this country but it's a funny season lol, my brother a first time grower has done much better so at least we have back ups
I’m happy the posts have gone….I’ve got the scars to remember them by!😂. I potted my tomatoes on and I’ve ended up with almost 60!😩 They’re healthy enough but small. We just need a bit of warm weather, which doesn’t seem to be on the cards for next week. Good luck with yours and your brother’s .
Hi Fiona you certainly do have plenty plenty of squash and your greenhouse is cracking we all run out of space no matter how hard we try Kenny cutting was perfect val said no your not having one of them 😂😂😂.
I’ve just potted on my tomatoes and I’ve got about 60!! About 40 squash! What was I thinking?😂. I should set up a stall and sell them! A chainsaw trumps a hand saw every time!
Hi Fiona, I can confirm that horseradish is very invasive. I'm trying to work out how to clear a patch on the allotment. Our tomatoes are very slow as well I'm assuming they'll speed up as the weather warms up. I haven't sown our courgettes, squashes, or cucumbers so I'd better get a move on. I'm like you though no space in the greenhouse. You have just beaten us to it will the leeks we have one last batch to harvest and probably freeze. I like the chainsaw close up with shavings going in all directions.
I’m glad I decided to put the horseradish in a pot then! I’ve just potted on my tomatoes and ended up with 60 of them!😂…..I thought my greenhouse was full before! Doesn’t look like we’re forecast for any warmer weather next week which is disappointing isn’t it. It always seems to work out in the end though, and every year is different.
Iv managed to get 30 kale planted out and 8 red cabbage. Fingers crossed we don't get a cold snap!!! My tomatoes were slow as well so brought into the house and they flying kow. Aubergines jn the greenhouse again doing well but slow... my cucumbers not germinated yet but Carl's gherkins have. Iv set some patty pan squash off just waiting for them to germinate along woth the beans! I'm lagging on flowers too again not germinated yet except sunflowers.😅
Oooo! So exciting! You’ve got loads going on! I’ve just potted on my tomatoes and I’ve got about 60!😂. Crazy! They’re so small though. It’s going to be chilly next week apparently so not what we need really. I did patty pan last year. They fruited really late, later than all the other squash.
Hi Fiona , you have certainly have got a lot of tomato plants, Tesco will be on the phone if there is a tomato shortage, cold weather on its way down they say .. be prepared 👍
I’ve just potted the tomatoes on….a ridiculous number. Absolutely not enough room for any of this stuff but where there’s a will there’s a way. Cold weather!! I can’t be bothered with that! I’m wanting to get some salad in the ground!
It’s always hard to know what to do though , isn’t it. Wait a bit longer to see if they germinate…..or plant more. I’ve found the slightly warmer weather has caused a lot of my slow to germinate seeds to pop up. Fingers crossed for yours!
I know, we’re lucky and we probably don’t make enough use of it. I’m just waiting for the comfrey to grow a bit so I can get some of that into the compost too.
@@fionagrows1848 you should check out Jim at home grown vegetables, and his smallest compost pile. He basically uses the pots he grows in, tops them up with seaweed, grass and leaves in autumn and uses the soil in spring. He has great success. I can find the link to his video if you like. 👍🏻🤠
Great video! We're on the other side of the world (New Zealand) and are also doing similar jobs. I'm a new subscriber! 😀 BTW I also have a gardening channel 🌽🍅🥒🥕🍆🥦🌶
Sitting in with the chickens watching your video. Pleasant start to a Saturday 😊. Brilliant start to your compost bin. Do you blanch your leeks before freezing. Happy gardening. Mags.
😂I must admit to having never sat with my chickens whilst watching videos,! I wonder if they enjoyed it 😂. I don’t blanch my leeks or any veg before freezing. It’s laziness more than anything.
I think everything is slow this year, I’m in SW Canada and it’s not gotten above 12c days and 🥶 1 to 2c nights plus we have only really had 2 sunny 🌞 days all April 🤷♀️. My squash have done nothing so I’m chitting some which I’ve never had to do before. It was lovely looking around Fiona thank you for sharing, Ali 🇨🇦
@@myrustygarden Hi Ali, your weather sounds like it’s been exactly like ours. A slow start for us gardeners but I’m sure everything will catch up. I watch a You Tube channel of a couple who live in Alaska and they have just 3 months to get their veg grown. It works fine and they have huge abundance! The plants just grow faster😂.
Hi Wendy (coincidentally, we’ve just named our newest hen Wendy!😂), we live a couple of miles from the beach, so we can pop down anytime and pick up the seaweed that has washed up.
Lethal raised beds?! Oh no that's not good, I am glad it was an easy fix though :) -Cara
My legs bear the scars! 😂😭
Vraiment top bravo 😊😊😊
A bientôt
Merci beaucoup! 😊
@@fionagrows1848 de rien c'est avec plaisir
Hi Fiona, things are looking good in the greenhouse. Good luck with the growing season ahead
Thanks Amir, thanks for watching and I hope your garden grows fabulously this year.
I love making compost! I still have a lot to learn though! Thanks for sharing! - Taryn
Compost making feels like a miracle to me. Chuck in waste , get out lovely soil! It always works in the end.😊

Hi Fiona great stuff we’re having same with the seeds 😑 your compost will be amazing hope yous are keeping well all the very best 😊👍🌸
Hi Carl, the seeds are definitely slow this year and it’s not warming up next week☹️. But not to worry, it always works out!

Hi Fiona I have that horrible feeling about my seedlings that haven’t germinated yet, not got any squash yet 😮👍🏻🤠

Hi Fiona I wish I had access to seaweed, it’ll be awesome in the compost.👍🏻🤠
