    Loved your last few videos. I've been poorly.
    Growing Sremski and picked one big as a cucumber and wasn't as nice as other normal ones. We picked 3 that weighed 100g and just did a fridge pickle with them, with some garlic, onions and dill. Our last food goal with our kid is pickled stuff. They do like chilli's now. Might try them again with a cheese and branston pickle sandwich in hopes to engage them. They like salt and vinegar crisps and pickled onion monster munch, so we must be near! Homemade pickled onions as a kid was the best! I used to made them as well as spicy pickled onions but we never got through them all! Like you said, we still have pickled beetroot from last year, so we need another pickle eater in the house!
    You can eat baby sprouts but it is worth leaving them to get bigger for Christmas. You can harvest the lower leaves to eat like cabbage. We have kinda neglected ours as we put bird netting over them but it's on the list. Not doing so well in the garden this year. Lots of cloud, not enough rain! Most of it is from slugs and snails. Hoping to finally get the mesh on the main bed so i can cut off the bit for the sprouts!
    Glad your Grandad liked the blackberry jam! Was a sweet basket you made for them!
    If you have a roll of string you can mark if off in 1 metres with a pen and run the strings along the plot as an estimate.
    Not sure if @firsttunnels have a YT channel but definitely a candidate for the new plot! :o)
    Take care and have a great weekend!

      Our fridge is half pickle at the moment - but I’m making Sam take beetroot sandwiches to work so we should get through it quickly 😂 I’m pleased the sprouts need longer! I’m determined to have mine for Christmas 🤞🏻
      A few people have suggested first tunnels! We will have a little look
      Thank you🧡

    I had an aphid problem last year, but this year I think I nailed it. I got one of those mint plants from Morrisons, repotted it, and pruned it, putting all the prunings in water to root. Pretty much all of them did, and I planted a little mint plant in the same pot as all my tomatoes and peppers.... haven't seen a single aphid.

      Oooooo I like that idea! One to try for next year for sure 🧡

    you can make green tomato chutney with the green tomatoes you took off Emma. Plot is looking cool. Happy gardening 🙂

      They are still looking very green so it’s an idea for sure 😂 thank you!!!

    They do organic sprays forests Emma and for mildew. Mildew is more often than not humid condition and lack of airflow. You can also use washing up liquid in water for aphids BTW. You can buy solar panel fans for your greenhouse to help with airflow and cooling it down in the heat

    DAWN dish soap and water will take care of those aphids.

      A few people have suggested this! Amazing thank you 🧡👩🏼‍🌾

    Pin a polytunnle down with curved top rebars, get them on places like Amazon fairly cheaply.

    Those sprouts have a way to go yet, maybe ready for Xmas. Xx

    I'd love a polytunnel, but as I grow at home, there is no chance. I'd grow tomatoes and strawberries in it and, of course, your wedding flowers and more melons and cucumbers. I love watching your vlogs as they are always upbeat. Keep on being you, Emma 😊

    • @HouseOfTedYT
      @HouseOfTedYT  Před 13 dny +1

      Thank you!!🥺🥺🥺 I’d like to try grapes too!

    Danny at Grow Up has I think a "first tunnels" or something like that... I noticed on Mr Dowdings last video he seems to have at least one of his from the same company.

    • @HouseOfTedYT
      @HouseOfTedYT  Před 13 dny +1

      It seems a popular choice, we’ll have a look!

    The sprouts have a while to go yet Emma xxx

      It’s my first time growing them so I have no idea haha! That’s good - closer to Christmas 😂🤞🏻

    Hi Emma, I love your dedication and enthusiasm. Just a thought, perhaps if you mulched your beds over winter and put down thick layer of compost in spring your plants might be a little happier. Looking forward to your flower beds next year.

    • @HouseOfTedYT

      Thank you! Yep we are going to really focus on the soil this autumn and try and improve the texture 🧡🧡

    Organic soapy water sprayed on the plants is great for greenfly. It worked on my a honeysuckle 🤞
