You know how you always tidy up before guests come over? Well thats why I started this channel. To keep myself accountable - and the garden tidy!
Come and join me for a weekly look at whats going on in my cosy little veg garden, in the South East of England. There are chickens, cats, and seagulls, plus monthly tours and other goings on.

The very first Garden Tour for my little Vegetable plot.This is all new to me and I'd love to hear what you think and how I can improve!
Looks fantastic 😊😊😊
Thank you so much! Its frozen today so it doesnt look like this anymore.... but I'll be back in the srping with lots of seed sowing! x
what a beautiful garden
Thank you so much!
Nice harvest! 😊
Thank you! Shame I had to pull them, but I did OK anyway. I did plant some more! worth a shot.
I am in Ontario, and yes we do struggle with snow.
That must be hard! although I love snow. We don't get much at all here! (We are known as the 'sunshine coast' in Eastbourne!)
One year I grew up bottle gourds for decorations they went wild had loads of them it was a fun grow
that sounds like fun! maybe I'll try it next year! 😄
@@gemmaisinthegarden there is a whole community that decorate bottle gourds
amazing! I'll have to take a look. is there anyone you recommend I should look for?
fresh potatoes are so tasty, thanks for sharing your garden clip
@@NatureInspiredSnipsnSnaps Thank you so much! do you grow potatoes?
@@gemmaisinthegarden Yes
You are welcome, I am from Canada.
@@growingmyown Canada looks amazing. where abouts in Canada are you? do you struggle with snow?
👍👍👍
Thanks Michael!
That a awesome harvest, thanks for sharing..new friend here.
Thanks for joining me! I'm just starting out on this youtube journey so its great to have friends along for the ride! Where are you from?
Hi, new to your channel! There is always next growing season. You did pretty good.
Thank you! and welcome! Its a pretty new channel, so you've not missed much! 😂 What and where do you grow? xx
@@gemmaisinthegarden Yw, I just started my channel about 7 months ago. I grow a lot and do a lot of preserving. Have a great day!
@leekent3325 ahh I'll take a look! I also do a lot of preserving - I was pressure canning beans yesterday! xx
I think they possibly needed watering - I grow mine in 30 l tubs and water them every 3 days. It’s labour intensive so maybe leaving them to their own devices and accepting less yield is sensible 👍
@philbrown4092 Thanks Phil! they do get some water from the irrigation system that runs between the greenhouses. it's a leaky hose and the buckets sit on top. I dont know how much of that they can soak up though! perhaps next year I'll adjust the hoses so they get watered better and see if it improves my harvest. 😁
What did you think of the potato harvest? Could it have been better?
I’ve tried chickpeas but I haven’t grown them before 😊
I didn’t know that we can grow chickpeas in the UK so have learned something there 👏🏼
Hi Phil! Will you give them a go? Hopefully you'll have better luck than me - although I did make a lovely houmous from the chickpeas that were good to eat! <3 They were the best I've tasted, so it might be worth growing them in a better growing year...
You have a great set up for them - they are very lucky chickens 😊😊
Thanks Phil! It's been a lot of trial and error but it feels like it works now. Do you have chickens?
@@gemmaisinthegardenI used to have them a long time ago. I found them quite tying if I’m honest so we don’t have them now. Our allotment has a chicken shed on it but I grow brassicas in it currently 😂
@@philbrown4092 Aww I love having the girls! But I imagine it's different on an allotment. Brassicas in a chicken shed sounds like a great idea! I'm trying to figure out the best way to grow mine. My frames are only so high and I've had to remove them - but now the caterpillars have got them! Do you have any growing plans for the winter months? I'm still pondering (although I'm running out of time!)
Is that strulch beneath your tomatoes?
Yes it is - I use it a lot as we get lots of slugs. It doens't completely deter them, but it does act as mulch and keeps the soil wet underneath during the summer heat. worth every penny!
Wow ! The cucumbers certainly did well. We have struggled so badly. Next year!
yeah they did well! I've got enough pickles for the next 10 years... which is good, because that's how long it will take for another good cucumber year! 🤣
Sorry to see you got blight
Thank you! I was really looking forward to the varieties I'd picked this year too. the backups are doing well though, so if the sunshine stays a bit longer I might just get a few... 🤞
Tanaman yang cantik ran subur👍
Terima kasih banyak-banyak!
wow amazing gardening update
Thank you so much! :D
What a fantastic garden …congratulations. I have taken notes and ideas 👍👍. Please continue the tours across the seasons. Well done!
Thank you so much! That's lovely of you to say. Hopefully a new video every friday - short and long, plus a garden tour each month. Glad you are along for the journey!
