Great stove Terry. Just right for making tea in your prize winner’s mug. Loads of freebies there mate 👍🏼. Excellent sprouts. Ideal for Christmas dinner. Take care. Nick
Enjoyed having my first drink from the mug Nick, fire is now working better with the modifications.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
New subscriber from the States. Those are the most beautiful Brussel sprouts I have seen on CZcams thus far! I aspire to accomplish this next year.... Thanks for sharing!

Yeah, I don’t trust my wife to hammer a nail and I don’t hazard an axe much that way. You have some very nice ideas on gardening. I’ve tried a build on the stove. Time to try again. Keep ‘em coming Terry!

Thank you Tony, it's a talent to see something and know exactly what you want to use it for and I nearly gave up in thinking that I could get my hands on some off cuts of rebar, but to find this was exceptional. Looking forward to starting my polytunnel now in January.

I think guttering is so expensive for what it is so getting some free ones are a winner.
It's been difficult at the moment to get any guttering, and yes, at £14 a length come expensive.

Hopefully they will bulk up Kimmy especially when they are naked.....lol.

Awesome share. I wish I could find the resources that seem to fall in your lap! I’m jealous but not envious. Big blessings my friend!

Have seen those washing machine barrel fire pits as they look rather nice and work rather well.
Ideal and very little work to turn into a nice burner.

Ahhh that satisfying "pop" harvesting Brussels. Watching some of your back catalogue as I get ready to plant my seedlings into the ground. Never grown them before. We are building a cage for them with some reclaimed wood today from an old deck and covering the frame with fleece. Our night are still below freezing.
I'm always in awe of all the materials you get your hands on. You are an inspiration to this new gardener in Canada.
Thank you for your king words and continued support my friend and good luck in everything that you do.
Happy gardening, Terry King.
This was EXTREMELY helpful. I have yet to have the courage to give Brussels a go, but now im thinking of adding them to my growing list
They are a long term crop and very rewarding if they reach maturity, got good Brussels 2 years out of 6. Not sure how they will do where you live, but give them a go.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
Love the opening fire! A really nice update on the garden sir. Lots still doing well there.
Take care and stay safe,

The fire is gorgeous, Terry! Cheers with our Nick mugs my friend!!🌻 They've done really well is an understatement my friend! Have never seen such lovely sprouts!! Pulling out the stems between will allow them to fill out more too!! Love that they come again! I had no idea! That's amazing!! Someone will really appreciate that spade and fork! It really is mucky there! I like that "Tez' fireplace"!!
I could watch your fire all day long, Terry! Have a good night my friend!💚
Really pleased with the adjustments to the Stove Chris and boiling the kettle is alot quicker. I was surprised to see the baby sprouts and let's see what happens to them over the next couple of months. Had many years of use from my recycled tools and I will soon have no use for them. Stay safe and healthy my friend.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
The -stove- Tez' fireplace rocks!
I'll be delighted to see what happens, too Terry! Anything inherited from you will be a treasure for the recipient I think!💚@@terrykingsallotmentgardening
Terry, Just spending the snow day catching up with videos on your channel. Getting my inspiration for spring gardening. The "ground hog" saw his shadow today, we are going to have 6 more weeks of winter! sigh. Be safe and stay well. Catherine
I am battling through through the jobs I set myself Catherine and the weather here is so unpredictable, hopefully spring will come quickly for you.
♻️Happy gardening, Terry King.
Fireplace is cooking right along. Good to see you got a break in the rain. Garden is holding up really well! Keep that fire burning and stay warm my friend.
Well it didn't stay dry long my friend's and other than getting the wildflower garden cleared it's been slow going.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
Those sprouts are going to be amazing on the xmas table!!
Looking at our garden I'm thinking that my beautiful hybrid blackberries may just ripen in time for the christmas pavlova. I have an immense crop this year!.
As always a seriously inspiring vlog.i would love to spend more time in the garden but work in retail.and right now my hours are extended. Its keeping up the watering that worries me most and it is ROASTING !
Hello Cherie, I would love to spend more time in my growing spaces and looking forward to retirement, amazing what you will have ready for this up and coming holiday. It's good to be in work at the moment so get in the garden when you can to relax and chill out after a long day at work.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
Good info about sprouts. I have never been able to successfully grow them. Think I need to ground them in more and stake them. Thanks for the info
I always struggle and hopefully i will get a good crop every year now Suzzy.
Happy Gardening, Terry King.
Thank you for the video!
You have a real knack for finding and utilizing cast off treasures!
I have never grown Brussels sprouts. I love to eat them, but haven't grown them. We get the aphids really, really bad here. I am thinking that I will avoid growing the brassicas over the summer and just plant them in the fall when there are a lot fewer of the aphids around.
I love that little stove/fireplace. It provides a place to warm your hands and make a cup of tea. That is great!
Thanks again for the video! Very nice sunflower mug!
Have a great day!
Thank you very much for a lovely comment my friend and the things I find do do come in really useful. We all have to learn from our lessons and hopefully planting over the fall will work for you.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
I need this video! Glad to see your allotment. Lots of leaves. Goals! Wow free rebar! As for Brussels, mine have pea sized sprouts on mine. I absolutely love baked Brussels sprouts and I can’t wait to taste homegrown.
I have had a good year all round my friend with the brussel sprouts doing really well.
♻️Happy gardening, Terry King.
Also your garden is lovely! I got so excited about the little brick stove in the garden i kinda forgot about everything else, hahaha. Your brussells are lovely! Everything is, wonderful job.
Thank you again my friend.
♻️Happy gardening, Terry King.
Hi Terry, Those Brussel sprouts look really nice, you have done well with those this year, I lost mine early doors because of the cabbage white constantly laying eggs it was a never-ending job finding and taking off the eggs, Take care.
They were open to the elements and a quick spray of neem oil seems to have put off the cabbage whites. Better luck for you next year.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
Hi Terry, those Brussels look great mate, I know what you having on your xmas dinner plate. You wanna build some sort of wood burner in your polly tunnel. Cheers mate, take care and be safe.
Pondering on a hot bed or fire, but its keeping the fire going and may resort to using a Chinese heater in the future. Brussels are going down a treat.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
Love the mug Terry,and loved the sound of the kettle 💚👍☕. Great looking sprouts. I had success with them to this year, i'm delighted you have had too. Love that fire, nothing like it in the cold weather.
Must get a suitable kettle for the Stove Lorraine, maybe an aluminium kettle would be more suitable, boils alot better now. Really pleased that you have some good sprouts too, enjoy them my friend.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
@@terrykingsallotmentgardening good idea re kettle,I have a very light weight one, i use on my portable stove, very handy,I use when camping,boils faster might suit better. Oh sprouts are hubbies fave.
Ooh I’ve never tried to cut and come again with my Brussels sprouts - I’ll have to give it a go next year! Also love your stove :)
Going to cut the Brussels of one plant and break off the rest Ruth and see if the babies reach maturity. Nice to have a warm on our cold days.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
That stove works great. That was a great find with the rebar. I tried my hand at brussels sprouts for the first time this past season. They grew nice, but succumbed to flea beetles just as they were filling in. I'll give them another go next year. Yours look amazing.
We ether get good sprouts or not then we have the bugs to deal with, it's a crop that you don't get very often so when we do this is how I look after mine. Rebar will come in really useful for a couple of future projects.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
Hi Terry, I love the rocket stove, it looks like it is working perfectly - makes a brew is the best criteria :-) I still have sprout envy - they are looking fantastic - mine are still poor. I am going to try the Crispus next year, for the lasr two years I have tried herritage varieties and they are just not working here. It is time to try something that will hopefully prove a little more reliable. Thanks for a great update full of useful info :-)
Cheers Julia and if the Crispus do well next year then I will get some more, this is one of those crops that ether does well or completely fails.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
Wow! Those are cracking sprouts! One of my goals for next year is home grown sprouts for the Xmas dinner!
I love that stove too!

I misread the title and thought you were asking how you looked "after a brussels sprouts..... diet?... Smoothie regime? I read it again and realised how you look after your sprouts. So glad you do, possibly my favourite vegetable after potatoes. Very informative video, I shall probably watch this again. Take care, Poo P.S. I would imagine if you'd been on a sprout smoothie regime or diet you would probably look rather lonely! Catch my drift? LOL
i defiantly need to grow more sprouts, 6 a week won't help my digestion.
Happy gardening, Terry King.
I teamed up with a farmer here that will grow our Brussels this year. Hope they look as nice as yours:))
After 6 years I have only had two good years Ryan so I do like to pamper them. Good luck with your new venture.

Excellent video Terry and I have never really watched the Queen's speech because I am not into knowing or being interested in what the Royal family gets up to but do respect people's choices to do so. It's good to have an alternative to the Queen's speech(technically it's not written by the Queen and it's not her words but rather written by the government that is in power in this case someone in the Tory Party) because it won’t interest everyone.
So so true David, would be good to have an honest version.

My sprouts weren't very good this year but still had a crop.
♻️Happy gardening, Terry King.
Hi terry when do put your sprouts in do have to cover as I’m new to this thank you
Hello Michael, I sow mine in March April time and depending what pests you have which will be a learning curve for you will depend on the protection. I have issues with pigeons so i hang a net over the top so they can't land on the tops, butterfly's can be a problem, but I tend to not net completely cover as they will lay the eggs through the netting anyway onto the leaves. Hope this helps and please don't hesitate to ask questions if you continue to watch some of my videos.
Happy gardening, Terry King.
Watching that axe work was nerve racking stuff 😂
Still got all my fingers my friend.

Hello Terry, just catching up after a break. With the curved kerbs, would it work for you by alternating the curves, one way then the other way. Crispus look good, second year I have grown them although they were slow taking off. When you ask the wife to hit the nail...........remember to tell her not the ones attached to your fingers and thumb! 😊
🌻Nigel.............MuddyBootz Allotment🌻🌻
I was thinking the same with the kerbs Nigel, but ether way most of the kerb will be buried. Really pleased with the sprouts, but the other club root resistance brassicas that I bought with them didn't do very well, did get one good cauliflower though.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
Yep. Garden envy everytime I watch. 😂 one day I'll get there. This year is my first year growing sprouts. And I have now clue what I am doing. Plus side is I haven't killed them yet. So maybe there's a chance I will get something from them.
Oh and nice fireplace/rocket stove.
Same here , I want Terrys allotment 😁

@@angelinegrows7765 😉🤗😊🌹
Terry I noticed that one plant the sprouts were spiralling up clockwise and on another anticlockwise does that mean they are different varieties and does it make any difference to the quality etc.
I will have to take a closer look Richard, just done another video for Sunday so will check it out in a future video and ask if anyone has seen this before.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
When do you remove the leaves? What size are the sprouts when you do? Thank you.
The sprouts are almost full size when I start removing the leaves starting from the bottom working my way over time to the top. I hope your sprouts develop and fill out for you.
♻️Happy gardening, Terry King.
My sprouts get mauled by slugs and I had huge crops but so much damage sadly 🥺🙈.

Hi Terry, good bit of advice regarding brussles. When do you plant them out?
They were a bit late going in this year due to the beds only just being built Karen, but March is around when they go in. They stay in the grow room till then.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
I love sprouts but in my first season I couldn’t get netting or BT in time due to lockdown so was hit massively with cabbage butterfly, I had to cut my losses an get rid. That plus learning about spacing were hard lessons to learn. This yr I’m going to square foot garden while I get use to spacing and harvest timings, you’ve inspired me to try again!
@@SecrePeach only had 2 good years for sprouts in 6 years so its pot look what we get. Never give up on growing anything.
Thanks Terry, always informative, do you recycle the sprout stalks?
They go in the green bin at home William, haven't got a shredder and they don't rot down at all in the Compost bin.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
5 years ago I thought they would break down, I agree that they do not, I have 5 years worth still around the yard waiting till I find something to do with them.

Hi Terry
great score with that rebar mate :-)
Excellent tips on the sprouts (something I've not grown for a number of years) Q: at what stage did you trim the leaves back?
cheers mate
Woody
Hello Woody, the rebar was a great find and will help me immensely with a couple of future projects. As soon as the sprouts have filled out and slowly work my way towards the top eventually removing the tops to help stop them blowing and hopefully the small ones at the top getting to a good size.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
At what point during growth so you remove the leaves ? I have well established sprouts growing with no issues and just curious to know if and when to remove leaves.
As soon as the sprouts look a good size, too many leaves with make the sprouts grow more and end up blowing. Take the tops out once fully formed and store as they are until you need them, if you are unsure try different methods and stick to what suits you Bill.
♻️Happy gardening, Terry King.
Thank you for the information! Is it OK if I cut the leaves before the Brussels sprouts start growing?
Only remove the dying leaves at that stage because its the leaves that collect the energy to create the sprouts, remove the leaves as the sprouts grow.
Happy gardening, Terry King.
@@terrykingsallotmentgardening Makes sense, thank you so much!!!
Happy Gardening 🧑🌾

Thats working well mate. Its a big stove. Nice guttering score and the rebar it wasnt dumped it was waiting for pick up lol My sprouts did well this year for the first time. I did plant them to early but they did ok. A dull axe is a dangerous axe.
Yes I have heard that quote before, was hoping not to scare my viewers, but it's very sharp......lol.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
The fire place is amazing, be great to cook some bacon on that. Love your sprouts, they look great. Hoping mine will put some growth on, they very small sprouts. Do u have any tips on growing sprouts. Lastly I have a question about compost, is it a good idea to put some guttering in the middle of the pile, with holes in to give the compost pile more air. Would this help to make the compost break down quicker?
Hello Mark, I prefer cold Composting with worms, they create the holes for the Compost to breath and each March I harvest it and its marvellous material. Take the tops out Mark on a few to see if it makes a difference for you. Keeping warm in front of the fire Mark when it's not raining.......lol.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
@@terrykingsallotmentgardening oh ok, I mean I've never tried it, I've been watching a lot of video on composting. Think I'll carry on how I normally do it. Yea I've taken the top outta one a few weeks ago. Fingers cross. I love a fire out in the cold. Stay safe

I agree cool fireplace. Question the sprouts does it matter if you cut them off or twisted them off to get the regrowth? As always stay safe and stay gardening from Langley 🇨🇦🧑🌾✌️☮️🍆🥬🥕🌶🎄
Twisting them off takes too much off back to the stem so cutting leaves something for the little sprouts to form.

@@terrykingsallotmentgardening I’ll give it a try next year thank you 🙏
@@myrustygarden 👍😁👍
Wow those sprouts look amazing Terry. I am growing sprouts for the first time this year and am pleased to say I have quite a few sprouts forming - not nearly as many as you right enough. Question for you... some of the sprouts look a bit loose, as this they may be starting to blow. What causes this and how can I prevent it? Thanks in advance. Take care. Mags 🌺🌼🌸🌻
Sink a strong stake next to the plant and tie the stem to the stake with strong material. Strong winds rocking the plant is one reason why sprouts blow .
@@trevorwills3356 thank you Trevor didn't know that.

Trevor has hopefully answered your question Mags and support is always required and I always take the tops out and they have never blown.

Thanks Terry. I.only answered Mags query because i mistakenly thought that you'd overlooked it. I still watch and enjoy all your videos. Have a nice Christmas and keep well.
@@trevorwills3356 I have lots of comments and don't always spot the replys and you answered the question that I didn't know and that's how we all learn from each other so join in with the comments anytime Trevor.
Great sprouts Terry, mine get holed by slugs or grazed by snails, any suggestions?
Put a piece of plastic at the bottom of the plants and collect the slugs as they rest Gwen, vigilance is key.
🎅Happy gardening, Terry King.
@@terrykingsallotmentgardening It doesn't seem to be an overnight trip for them. I'm finding the slugs and snails as I pick during daytime. I used nematodes in the summer which reduced the slug population, I find small snails in crevices on the sprout plant. I haven't deleafed as much as you which may help, I just wish the welsh water would stop falling. Dissuades the birds and facilitates the molluscs. Freshly picked sprouts are a revelation. Thanks for the reply.
@@gwenscoble6229 this wet weather has increased the population, pleased that Nematodes have helped you.
Two strips of copper or aluminium tape round the base separated by 1/8 inch, and connected to a 9v battery.
Hi terry i am new to growing.. do i remove the leaves of the sprout plant or leave them on ??
Only remove the leaves once the sprouts have formed starting at the bottom and working your way up as the sprouts form further up, if you want to store them at the end of the season remove the top and remaining leaves and leave them in the ground, harvest some sprouts as required or take a stem. This was a good year for me but we can get failures too. All the best and don't hesitate to as any questions.
