Yes: paksoi is a great idea. And some puntarelle again. I've eaten the first one last week à la Romana: delicious. Originally it's from Italy but it does grows well in cooler climate.
Trying to get plenty of winter veg in myself iv got a polytunnel to fill this winter just trying to time the sowingsypur asparagus seedlings look great
Great video guys n lovely to see poppy there too. Mrs w u need to stop feeding Mr w new potatoes as he's got a wee pot belly like mine lol. Good luck guys and hope everyone is well.
It means a lot that you enjoy our videos and notice little Poppy! I do need to cut back on the new potatoes that's for sure, we are all good and hope you and your family are too!
Hello Barry & Mrs W I was wondering what you will be growing in your greenhouse (not polytunnel) this winter & when will you be sowing the seeds? I really enjoy your videos & look forward to them every week. All the best Clare
I always find these videos so helpful for what seeds i can sow. Helps keep me constantly sowing so ive alwaya got something to plant out as beds become free
How’s the wormery in mine the worms are very slow maybe they are too cold too. I’ve had juices in the bottom tray but not seen any worms in the top tray I’m thinking are the holes I drilled 5 m big enough for them to squeeze through?
I need to do carrots, I did do alot of other seeds the other day. I've had nothing but issue with carrots this year. Wish I knew a trick or 2. Great video
Your video came up on my recommendations today and it's exactly what I needed. I've only got a small balcony but I manage to grow runner beans, potatoes and tomatoes among the flowers each year. I was thinking of trying carrots, lettuce and spring onions next year but I can give it a go now having seen your great advice. The beans have done abysmally for the last three years so I'll grub those up to make some room. We've had more pollinators this year. Not many, but several pretty hoverflies have been around a fair bit and I saw a bee yesterday, lol. Cheers from Devon. :)
Funny you mentioned the blueberries. Mine have been taken by the birds this year. First time in many years growing them. Also noticed a lack of pollinators this year
It's unfortunate to hear about your blueberries and the lack of pollinators. Nature can be unpredictable sometimes. Sounds like we are all in the same boat!
I’m a novice gardener. Put up a Poly Crub this year. Very excited. Planted Chinese cabbage and they’ve just gone to seed without forming a cabbage head. Could the heat of the greenhouse be the problem? Can I use the leaves?
Great tp see your Asparagus bed. You will enjoy that harvest when it comes. We are starting ours next spring but with crowns. We have an asparagus farm nearby so not too urgent. I'm sowing all the above mentioned seeds. Great List! What was that Pak Choi variety? I couldn't quite hear. I'm looking at winter spinach but I think it's a bit early to avoid bolting.What do you think?
Thank you for your kind words Ken! The Pak Choi variety is Youshu - it's a great choice which I found on Mole seeds. For winter spinach, you might want to wait a bit to avoid bolting, Beginning of September is when we sow ours. It will feature in the sow with us at the beginning of September! Very handy to have an asparagus farm nearby and when you do plant your crowns you won't have to wait as long as us!
You and Mrs W are actually really sweet. ❤
Thank you so much for your kind words!
Birds go for my Blueberries and Blackberries like crazy. We have to net both.
Thanks for sharing your experience! Netting is a lifesaver when it comes to keeping the birds away from our beloved berries!
Yesterday I planted some peas.
That's amazing! Gardening can be so rewarding and it is last chance salon for peas!

That sounds an amazing vegetable thank you for sharing!

That's fantastic! Winter veg can be so rewarding. Stay tuned for when we start sowing and planting for the winter polytunnel!
Spent today preparing my second no dig bed
That's fantastic Barry! No dig beds are such a great way to garden!
Great video guys n lovely to see poppy there too. Mrs w u need to stop feeding Mr w new potatoes as he's got a wee pot belly like mine lol.

I've planted some kale which a plot neighbour gave me. I've not tried it before so looking forward to that.
That's Jackie! Trying new things is always exciting and you will love the taste of kale!
Thank you 😇👍
You're welcome! But I feel like I should be thanking you for watching my videos!

Sorry to hear about your struggles with carrots! Hopefully, my how to videos will help, look out for them during the autumn!

I'm glad my video was helpful to you! It's amazing how much you can grow even in a small space like a balcony!

Hi Barry
How do you spell the Pak Choi variety.
Hi Martyn, it's spelt Yuushou and I got them from Mole seeds!
I’m a novice gardener. Put up a Poly Crub this year. Very excited. Planted Chinese cabbage and they’ve just gone to seed without forming a cabbage head. Could the heat of the greenhouse be the problem? Can I use the leaves?
PS...how do you spell the name of the Pak Choi variety you recommend?
Hi Clare, it is spelt Yuushou
