Loving the cloche thingies! Fab garden centre and plant haul. So sweet seeing your young one enjoying all those plants and running to give you a special hug when they saw you down at their height crouching over some flowers - that made me smile! The littlest digger is such a work horse at your place. Can’t believe how much those little chickens have grown…won’t be long before you are collecting eggs😀.
@@growinginfrance Oh I can well imagine how that is one of those precious moments you’ll treasure forever because they grow up so fast. I have to go back a long time 🧐 but I remember similar moments with my kids. It’s a moment that says, this is home, this is love, this is everything and I wish I could expand it out forever, but In the blink of an eye they are teenagers 😅!!!
Man of many talents Jack. Woodworking, Stone work, Metal work, Gardening - Potters Wheel next? Love the seed dishes. I found the plastic seed trays not effective as the compost dries out too quickly and they really need a vented lid. Happy gardening and seed raising. Have a good week.
Great video and I love your enthusiasm, the garden center was epic. I have seen seeds start with the damp toilet paper in a plastic bag. I have started seed this way. I do love those little dishes though what a neat idea. Rock on you guys..
Gurl, that Japanese maple and the lavender need to go in the ground come fall. I bought a Japanese maple about that size 8 years ago and now it's 15 ft high. Also, you could move that chicken cage every few days and the grass under it would be so beautiful. I know of a guy who has what he calls a "chick shaw" so it's a chicken coop on wheels. It's cool and all the chicken poop goes on the garden.
Love watching you guys. I don’t know if these are available in France but often using little plug trays is more efficient to get seeds to grow, sometimes they get lost in relatively big pots. However your veg garden is looking so nice 😊
I don’t know if we have them… I know I can buy some seedlings started in them from the shops so I probably just need to look harder! I think some smaller pots would be better. Thanks ☺️
Hi Jack & Becca. I think we should call it the Becca Seed System as it is working so well! Your veggies are already growing so well you could have salads very soon. Both of you are so adventurous and willing to always learn new things like welding, designing gardens and making fabulous garden walls. Becca the centerpiece is beautiful and at the end of summer you can replant the red tree. Never boring watching you grow❤❤❤
Please wear a breathing mask to minimize the gasses from welding. Breathing the gasses causes Parkinsons disease. My father was a welder as a hobby and died from Parkinsons.
Ok, ok…. I weakened and had to watch more! What a treat! Love the sprouting cloches.. so chic! ❤️

😂 We just love seeing your comments come through! Yes, those were such a great find, we got very lucky
Can't believe how much the chickens have grown in just a few weeks!
I know, it's wild how fast they grow! Blows us away every day.
Brilliant seed starting idea. And to be able to do it prettily is a bonus. Your centerpiece is lovely (the maple may want moving next year).
Thanks! Yes we'll have to see if it's happy as a bonzai or if we need to find a new home for it 🥰

Yes that was my favourite bit to edit - I watched it over and over 🥰 Those chooks feel like they get bigger overnight it's wild!

@@denisew1916 Couldn't have said it better! ❤
Any large seeds you get, you can soak in water and then put them in take home. Containers are wonderful! Mini greenhouses.
Great tip!

Haha never tried pottery but those wheels do look like fun! You have a good week too. 😁
Love the seed starter idea. I may try it with a casserole dish. Have a great week!
I’m onto the second round of seeds already, it’s ridiculously fast! Good luck 🤞

Thanks! Epic is definitely the right word -- we love that place.
Plates with paper on them we used in school to start seeds…
55 years later I still do it
I’m just loving it, onto my second round of seeds already!
I did this using a plate with a clear plastic bowl on top , awesome my joy was similar
I love seeing Becca’s face light up when she saw those wee sprouts! Pure joy
Great video guys. Well done on the germination of the seeds.
Some of our spuds died last week RIP 🇫🇷👍
Oh no, I’ll pour one out for the lost spuds. 🥔 😂
@@growinginfrance that bloody frost lol

I hope the rain stops for you soon. We’re heading to France in three weeks, yay!
Ooh yay! I hope that means your husband is feeling better ❤️ It's supposed to dry up soon yes!
@@growinginfrance yes he’s doing well thanks. Winter here so hoping for some good weather there. Can’t wait!!!!
I mean wintery today, not quite winter, am very pleased to be going to miss most of it
@@Neroli-Daydreaming-of-France Brilliant, we're glad to hear it! Bring on the sunshine. ☀
Well done germinating the seeds 👍 it might look like a strange system but ...hey , it works 😊✌️
Strange… in a pretty way 🤪 haha, been super effective so far!
Beautiful and an amazing garden centre😊
Yes, we are sooo lucky to have found it, it's tucked away but a neighbour recommended it and now it's our favourite! ❤️

Plastic bottles cut off at the bottom should work too

Thanks Kathy, it’s so much fun having all these new things to learn 😍 never a dull moment. Haha we’re both terrible at sitting still so this works 😂
I have the same seed storage system. It is a really good system.
Twins!
Just a suggestion. If you put your seads in your sead orgenizer, maybe place then in sawing months with subdevisions for flowers veg and herbs
That’s a great idea! 💡
love your sead starters. How about using cheep cocktail glases and sausers of soms sort?
Have a look at Camp out west towards the end of today's video on how she germinates her seeds
Cheers, will check them out!
❤
Excellent Becs!!
Hi. Can I ask where that fab garden centre is please? Many thanks
Of course! It's "Jardin de Fleac" 👍
Bonjour,il faut beaucoup plus de place pour vos poules .
Oui, Le petit poulailler est pour quand elles sont poussins. On a prevu quelque chose plus grande pour apres ☺️

I'm so sorry to hear about your father, and appreciate your concern - this is a gasless welder though - it is flux core wire. 👍
