My friend is cat sitting for her neighbour who is on holiday. They are going to get a huge surprise when they return. Should have had their very young cat neutered and chipped... just saying.

Back garden wander and #sspc and potato peel spuds update
Wow so bizarre never seen that but Rach had a pepper with no seed in it 😮, so odd stuff going on. I would think it’s too late for cobs to form and even if they do how big would they actually grow 😢. Shame they haven’t caught on to cool colours 😂. Have a simply awesome weekend, hugs to you and Tony ❤, Ali 🌞🥵🇨🇦
I'll wait and see if they turn red and do a taste test. I've been looking at Plack pearl peppers and wonder if these are a green leaved version. It's coming up to the weekend so hope you have a great one. Give Gerald a hug from me. Xx❤❤
Love my green stalks
Me too. They're a brilliant use of space.
@@Cheriesgardenvegplot and as I’ve been converting my plot to raised beds it’s actually cheaper to buy the greenstalk
@@Garden-of-weeden I've managed to fit four where I had one raised bed. Hoping for a productive autumn and winter.
Your garden looks spectacular ❤. Look at all the grapes ❤, and the red plant is the same one I have that I love ❤❤❤ Bren
I'm hoping they swell a bit more.
Woo hoo 🎉🎉 birthday pressy arrived. I bought soil with my gift card from my daughter 😂. Gardeners are easy to please 👍👍. Happy growing my lovely friend, hugs to you both ❤
We are aren't we. Soil is a great thing to buy and something I'd be chuffed to bits with. Hope you had a fantastic birthday ❤❤❤❤
Your plants are looking so healthy ❤. I am clearing my Conservatory too today, as my plants are burning with the hot sun 😮. Happy Greenstalk birthday ❤, I can't wait to see them 😊. Bren
I don't dare move away from the front of the house in case I don't hear the knock
❤❤❤
I'm not a cat lover but kittens are so cute.
😘 thank you darlings ❤
You are very welcome. Xx
Morning Cherie, my melon didn’t survive either and by this time of year I pull things that don’t work. It’s time to start cleaning up for fall season. Great harvests to come I’m sure and hope my Uchiki does as well as yours. Have a simply marvellous day and sunshine, Ali 🥵🌞🇨🇦
I'll be pulling all my rubbish swedes tomorrow. Not worth giving them ground space. Have a smashing birthday. Hugs to you both. Xxx❤
Oh my! How wonderful😊
They are gorgeous aren't they. ❤
Aren't they soooo cute ❤
They really are. ❤❤
My goodness, look at that lettuce, it's seriously impressive. I've put lettuce in the top tier of my Greenstalk, I can only hope mine does half as well as yours ❤. My grapevines in the greenhouse aren't doing very well. The leaves are yellow and falling, not sure why, maybe too hot 😮. Yours look great ❤ well done 😊😊😊. Bren
It's all a huge learning process isn't it. ❤❤
They look like a small cherry bomb pepper
I think I saved seed from shop bought mini peppers. They must have reverted. It'll be interesting to see how they turn out.
Hope you had an amazing birthday. Ooohhh that pink one is stunning ❤❤. I saw your comment on Terry’s video about growing less and I was just saying the same. Don’t get me wrong I simply love growing but as drought becomes more the norm here watering is a constant and stressful worrying about things. So I’ll grow what we love beans and some yes some tomatoes plus a few corguette. In the poly mini eggplant 🍆 and cucumbers. A wonderful update Cherie hugs to Tony ❤ and yourself of course, Ali 🥵🌞🇨🇦
I grow too much of the same thing and a lot goes to waste. I want to sit down with a note pad and decide which things are worth giving space to. Have a lovely day. Xxx❤
@@Cheriesgardenvegplot I’m going to do the same, I get caught up in the fun of it and don’t get me wrong that’s great. But if we don’t eat it or I pick it and it goes to waste then I’m just throwing money away (I do enough of that already 🤣). So I know we love beans and corguette and tomatoes but not as many next year. Because although we love them I don’t want to spend all my time doing maintenance. Lettuce and smaller greens I’ll do in the vegepods. Potatoes are still a hmm 🤔 as they are nice but take up space. It’s so cheap here as we are in a farm belt that I can’t justify some things like corn and onions and well potatoes. Best laid plans right 🤣🤣 I’ll see how next spring goes
@@myrustygarden I think Planning is half the fun. I have for so many years grown loads of extra plants to give away. I'm not doing that anymore and will only grow three of each variety of tomato seeds. If all three come I'll plant them all. Corn isn't going in my garden anymore. It takes up so much space for such a small harvest. Have you anything nice planned for your birthday. Hope it's a lovely one for you. Xx
@@Cheriesgardenvegplot I gave up growing corn the squirrels and rats got more than us. We are having a bbq at my daughters house 🥰
I love it ❤❤
So do I ❤
Me too ❤
Happy birthday 🥳 to you Happy birthday 🥳 to you Happy birthday dear Cherie Happy birthday to you ❤❤❤❤ And many moooorrrreee
Thank you . Xx
Well done.
Thanks Terry. I'm forever changing things around.
@@Cheriesgardenvegplot 👍❤️👍
Oh cool it’s my birthday next Sunday 🎉🎉, happy birthday 🥳 my lovely friend ❤. What a lovely present 🎁 good man Tony 👍👍. As funny as it sounds I’m itching to get changes made. Have a simply amazing week, hugs to you both, Ali 🌞🥵🇨🇦
We'll both celebrate by buying ourselves a new plant. You can keep the flowers and chocolates 😊❤. Have a great week. Xx
It looks wonderful.
Thanks Joy. ❤
😂 your as bad as me, ok let’s move stuff about 🤦♀️ again Gerald says. I’m already planning what comes out and what goes in 👍👍. Have a fab day hugs to you both ❤, Ali 🥵33c🌞🇨🇦
I just can't leave things alone can I 😊😊😊😊 Hope you're both having a great weekend. Xxx
On it!! Tricia claims it and it will be shame to find money to cover what it provided!!
It will make a difference to so many people.
Our country is the same, we give away millions of vote buying cash but raise taxes etc for us oldies. Have a great day in the garden ❤, Ali 🌞🇨🇦
Britain isn't a very safe place to be right now. I'm so glad I have my garden. Hope the weather is being kind to you. ❤
@@Cheriesgardenvegplot 🥰🥰🥰
I know I risk being called Racist, but since all the illegal immigration crime has soared, and our country is a lot less safe now. I saw a UTube this morning of a man campaigning to have Sharia Law in London.... No, No, No..........
@@user-ix1ii8mp9iDefinitely not. ❤
How do you dispatch the slugs please?
Salt pot
Ps that’s my slugs this year orange frilly skirts and freaking huge 😮
They remind me of hovercraft ❤
Wow your greenstalk is producing some amazing things. Purple beans are so much easier to find 😂😂. Too true if we don’t try we will certainly fail. Wonderful to see sunshine 🌞 we finally got rain today and we couldn’t be happier. Have an amazing week both of you hugs and love, Ali ☔️🇨🇦
I've got two more Greenstalk planters coming next week. Big changes afoot in the garden. X
Nice one, i found some dumped in the countryside, i was happy to clean up the mess. 👍👌😁
It's a nice little find isn't it
Well done and appreciated
Thank you ❤
Thats amazing.
Thanks Sian.
Superbe
Merci
@@Cheriesgardenvegplot de rien
I have noticed the apple tree where they leave them for people to take is full this season, last year there was hardly anything. Plenty of apple crumbles by the looks of it. ♻️Happy gardening, Terry King.
Looks like being a good year for apples but I'm hoping for pears next year
@@Cheriesgardenvegplot 👍❤️❤️👍
You sound so lovely and i love your garden ❤
Thank you so much that's very kind.
Well done my friend's.
I have you to thank for the inspiration. ❤
@@Cheriesgardenvegplot you just have to think how much money you have saved in perlite and compost and all you need to do is add some fertilizers which most do anyway even in new compost.
@@terrykingsallotmentgardeningI've saved a small fortune. Thanks Terry..❤
Another Terry deciple 🙏👌👍❤️
Wow your taking over for Terry King 😂😂
It's full of perlite too. None of those hydroponic clay balls. 😊
@@Cheriesgardenvegplot as cannibas growing here is legal this type of thing never happens
@@myrustygardenI'm rather pleased it's illegal here 😊
@@Cheriesgardenvegplotonly another 36,978ltrs to catch me up......😂
@@terrykingsallotmentgardeningThey are discovering naughty growers all over the place here. I'll be keeping my eyes open for anymore
Where can I get it from please?
I saw an ad on gumtree. Have a look on your local area website
@@Cheriesgardenvegplot Was it Middlesbrough?
@@rutters1no Stockton on tees
@@Cheriesgardenvegplot Thanks
@@rutters1I think there was a raid in Middlesbrough a couple days ago.
I lob them over the edge of the abyss, but I’m pretty sure they slime their way back 😂 They said on Radio 4 this morning there are officially more slugs & snails about this year. Garden is looking very lovely Cherie 😍
Thanks Lulu. It's very green and lush after all the rain
Wow, grab me a bag Cherie please! Might get some special seedlings popping up 🤣😂🤣
I'll be extra relaxed in the garden 😂😂😂
They just look like tomatoes 😮 when they grow.......😂.
@@terrykingsallotmentgardeningI'm hoping they don't sprout all over my garden 😊
@@Cheriesgardenvegplot you won't get any seedlings popping up as it's all harvested or cut down by the police before they mature.
That's fab! We got some last year but nothing since 🫶🏽💚
I was chuffed to bits. It'll keep me in compost for ages.
@@Cheriesgardenvegplot I bet! We got 9 grow bags which are the expensive ones! Love a free find 😆
@@ericandrachallotmenteersI've just topped up my raised beds. I'll be high as a kite while I garden 😊
Nice Garden Thank you for sharing ❤❤
Thanks for visiting
Your garden looks beautiful 😊
Thank you. X❤
Sounds like it's swearing.
Really?
😂😂 I say for every one I kill there’s a 100 hiding in the grass. I think lupin like a lot of flowers revert back to the original version 😢 my black dahlia is pink 😅. I have 1 apple again on my tree I don’t know why I bother but it’s in a pot so it’s ok. I don’t eat raw peas I leave them for Gerald he eats them like candy. I see I’m not the only one with insanity issues about moving things constantly 😂😂. Garden looks lovely and sunny for a change. Hugs to you both look after each other and simply enjoy, Ali 🥰🇨🇦
We've got slugs the size of crocodiles and it's them or me 😊 It's been warm and sunny all day so Tony and I have had a good sort out in the garden. Hope you've had some rain. Xxx❤❤
Thats wonderful ❤
I am delighted to have any harvest at all
I always say if the world had more gardeners it would be a better place. Happy gardening 🧑🌾, hugs to Tony and you ❤, Ali 🌞🥵 31c 🇨🇦
I wish we were neighbours. None of my neighbours have any interest in gardening. Oh the plants we could swap. ❤
@@Cheriesgardenvegplot 😘
A very good garden
Thank you. Xx
Sick of heatwave 😂 all we do is complain about the weather but hey that’s what gardeners do. Chin up hugs to you both ❤, Ali 🥵🌞🇨🇦
We've had a lovely warm day today thank goodness. Rain is back now though. Hope you get some cooler weather and a decent downpour ❤❤
@@Cheriesgardenvegplot no,rain in sight and at 7pm it’s 29c 🤦♀️
@@myrustygardenwe're never happy with the weather are we 😮❤
Hang on, the green stalk spins!!!! SOLD. Nice cukes & beautiful lilies Cherie 😗
I had to buy the spinning base separately
