Enjoyed your cooking and not falling in the hole in the kitchen floor👍👍 😀🏴❤️
Jessie your plot on google earth looks so well organised love you vids and learning a lot for my allotment THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just found your site Jessie ,love the cat and chickens and it’s nice to see you enjoying your garden
Your channel is a nice reminder that there is still a lot of good in the world.
I bought garlic from the garlic farm who were really good. Good sized cloves. Tidied the garden, got my bulbs planted and order my bulbs for summer next year. Bought my seeds for next year 15% off
Whenever I'm putting poppy seeds into an envelope, I use a folded A4 sheet of paper as a chute to ensure that they hit the envelope.
I was going to say why not grow your garlic in pots, just like growing strawberries in terricotter pots that have holes for individual plants that you walked by in the garden centre, thinking that you could do with a bigger greenhouse as well.😀🏴❤️
Oh my I do love crumpets! And a tea who doesn’t love w tea! As a Brit I’m sure my blood is tea
Ooooh appreciate the crunchy leaf footage, hardly any trees here in Orkney so not crunching for us 😂
I so enjoy your videos, Jess. They make me feel so peaceful and grounded. And I learn a ton! Thank you ♥️
Your wreath is beautiful, especially on that stained glass front door.
Hi Jessie. I couldn't really find any garlic, either. I was ordering mine too late in the season. Luckily, I have a friend who grew his own and gifted me 5 heads of plump, beautiful hard neck garlic. I live in the north east part of the US, and believe it or not, just planted my garlic. Lily really seems very fond of you and your mom. She's such a beauty, especially with her winter coat.
Ok, I know this is totally non-gardening related and that’s why I watch you Jessie, but you made me feel very homesick today eating Hovis crumpets for breakfast! 🤣🥲 Hope they were as delicious as they looked. Sue 🇨🇦
Hello Jessie Merry Christmas to you and your mother,if you want Garlic go to Garlic Farm online do hardneck and softneck and not expensive.
😮sad I’m glad the children wasn’t hurt as well as anyone else.
Hi Jess,, if you struggle to get garlic,,, try Tesco and get their organic garlic bulbs, plant those,,, I did last year and they grew as well, if not better, than the ones I bought online
Just done the same this year and they are doing really well😊
Oh my word where has this year gone!! I had problems getting hardneck garlic back in October and also snowdrops. I saw some manky bulbs in our local garden centre, 5 bulbs for £9.99. no thankyou. I hope last years come up again. I bubble wrapped my greenhouse too today and also was considering bubble wrapping myself...they've given -8deg here in Scotland on Thursday 🤣 The rest of the day I put fleece over everything, even if it didnt need fleecing. Not taking any chances. I think the wreath looks lovely. Just enjoyed everything about the vlog. Cheersing you with an orange gin and lemonade. Keep warm Jessie!
Most enjoyable 👍🤗🎄🐓
I found the garlic from lidl was the best to plant
Beautiful Lady.
Glad you got the kiln moved. Holly and pinecones really jazzed up the wreath! But what I'm quite in envy of is the English muffin you had with tea! English muffins I can get here in U.S. are absolute rubbish! Lol. Thank you for sharing!
Could you clothes pegs, the springy ones, in your greenhouse instead of the plastic clips??
Only Jessie would put festive and graveyard in the same shot - well done you
I've not got my garlic in yet and was beginning to worry about it, if you want hard neck try a bulb from lidles they have some really large ones and they grew ok for me last year
Beautiful wreath, well done
Best ending ever. Lovely wreath Jess. Lily is so lovely, I adore anytime she's featured. Wish I had all those poppy seeds! 🙂🌸
Gorgeous wreath Jessie.
Love the wreath refurbishment.
Even in California, which grows almost all its own garlic, garlic prices have doubled. My last bundle of garlic I bought I believe was 1/2 the bag size for the same price. I have been planting that garlic for years now. I take the biggest cloves from each bulb and plant those.
Today, while clearing up some of the garden, I discovered that my pineapple guava had fruit and they are delicious!
Great update once again Jessie , frustrating but rewarding at the same time , I'm pleased you got your garlic sorted at last , I use the garlic farm on the IOW luckily we were on holiday in early October and it's coming on fine nearly all showing now , hope all goes well during the oncoming bad weather hi to your mum too , keep up the good work xx
Might consider paper clips "clamp style" for the green house - might last longer than those other clips. Lovely vlog as always.
Glad to see Lilly is keeping you all in extra good company, sometimes animals just know what our hearts need, don't they?💗 Well wishes and sending love from USA.
Love your wreath. And your door glass is stunning.
Beautiful wreath jess, getting into the Crimble mode.
Can’t be a write off, you got to see all of the pretty decorations and making a list for your gardening wish list….😊
I just love how Lily is always around to greet you. Is she social with others? How far away from your plot does she actually live?
I believe she lives on the plot. Someone there owns her, but she visits others. I love Lily
I love how you great your plot guardians. Great videos.
The wreath good so good.This was fun.
i Don't understand Jessie why you don't have an Amazon wish list and a Post office Box where people can send you stuff. I'm sure lots of people would. You are so pleasant to watch. Such a feel good channel. I hope you have the very best Christmas and New Year. 🥂🍷🎄❤🩹
And thank you for letting us into your home, whether for cooking or Christmas crafts. Great to have holly and ivy on your plot. There's very little here near me in Blackpool.
Hi Jessie did you see Charles dowdings method of holding up the bubble wrap, he just uses a short bit of cane wedged between the metal bits of the greenhouse and they can go at an angle if they’re a bit wrong sized and they just kind of bar-wedge the bubble wrap against the glass. Legend!
I also bunged in loads of organic garlic from Tesco....great for green garlic.
I miss the sun too
It’s dark until after 8am here and then again from 3:30pm so basically I go to work in the dark and come home in the dark…. It’s a sad and dreary season 😢
That garlic price is unreal I actually did ok for garlics this year shouldn’t have that problem, as for the clips surely there’s someone with a 3D printer on this channel? Also Jessie that cat is lovely those markings are awesome. Noticed you didn’t clean the greenhouse with jeyes fluid 😂 so you must be keeping the gold in the vault there for later ;) love your videos you really do make my week. Wonder what cooking video you have for us too x
Cheers rambling Jessie.
Wouldn't be as enjoyable without your ramblings.
Really made me laugh when the seed went everywhere.
When you watch jessie faithfully and even you know where the bubblewrap is and try to tell her video that 🤣
Love from Belgium
I'm using bubble wrap over my leaf lettuces in a LG pot outside and it's been working great! I will do that again next winter 👍. I'm so glad you still are using that music on your vlogs ♡ so calming 😊
I so enjoy your videos of you and your mum, soon it will be the shortest day of the year and for me it’s all good, keep the videos coming please, happy Christmas to you both and love n peace to you all. Paul x
Just an idea. You are an artist and a practical person. Design a better fastner!
I tried searching for Garlic online weeks ago and had exactly the same experience, and said exactly the same thing.. 9.99!!
I have done well planting super market bought garlic and had good results.
Hi Jessie, the girlies & Lil are really happy to see you. Shame about the garlic but, great that you got some online 👍 great job on bubble wrappi g your greenhouse 🙂 hope your floor gets done very soon glad you got quite a lot of jobs done too. Thanks for sharing and take care 🙂
Ninety percent of that poppy seed demands some home-made bread.
You are looking slimmer Jess have you lost weight? Looking good👍
Beautiful wreath! Wonder why you go for hard neck garlic over softneck?
A friend brought me back some garlic from The Garlic Shop in the IOW last week. £10 for four bulbs so hopefully I'll be self sufficient next year . Pity you didn't film the kiln relocation scene, I'd say it was quite a laugh.
When you wondered where the bubble wrap was, I thought, Oh, I know, it's in the netting shed!
I'm here for you, should you misplace it next December.
Wow! Sunday upload? You are ahead of yourself this week. What a great surprise😁
Great catchup and omg I love your bee mug.... I've started wrapping my greenhouse but only got half way as I tore a muscle in my arm whilst raking up the leaves from our mahousive magnolia tree... hopefully finish it tomorrow... have a good week
❤ &Mum❤
….. Lovely !!… Tea and crumpets for breakfast Yum !!…Have the very same for mine from time to time…except that our family have always called them ‘Pikelets’ ?!… musts be a ‘regional’ thing….actually just looked it up… originally from Welsh word ‘bara pyglyd’… then ‘migrated’ to the West Midlands as pikelets… and also further ‘up north’…anyway, totally ‘delis h’ with oodles of butter… or at tea time with butter and salmon/ beef/ chicken ‘paste’… (that come in those little glass jars..if you know what I mean??!)…. And yes!, it is very cold here too… and I could see the chilly breath demo in the vlog ‘Brrr’… No wonder the Girlies were reluctant to appear from their cozy hen house👍👍…and the ‘lovely Lil’ hanging around for the plateful of moggy treat before you left😃…The saga of the elusive ‘hard necked Garlic was very frustrating… and well for Forgergills for actually having some and also describing them properly👍👍….and cheaper 👍👍!!…stupid prices !!!…Good job on the Wreath ‘makeover’… using foraged greenery (me too 👏👏)… so much better , I think…Finally pleased that the Kiln Wrangling was so smooth and successful…and having it on the trolleys means you just trundle it back , when the repairs done .. brilliant!!… Well, Christmas is almost ‘upon us’….season of ‘Cold Turkey’, ‘Cold Noses’ ..And ‘Cold Comfort Farm’ (favourite book)…thanks to Great Uncle ‘ScrewYooge’at Westminster and Co!!!…Actually,I will be very ‘Merry and Tight’ myself🤣🤣…despite everything…and ‘stuff them’ instead of the Turkey !!!…Hope you will manage to do some festive ‘recipes’ before then…Cheers Jessie and all at Plot 37…🤶🎄Sue(Birmingham)…Pikelets forever!!!
Lily is such a sweetheart isn't she? Does she have a family to live with?
We are quite cold here in Wales now withs lows of -3 which is very u nusual.
I got 50 British softneck from Amazon. Took a few dayd but they went into a couple of tubs. I ordered a second batch as our neighbour loves garlic and we use some of her garden.....have to push myself to plant them. Not sure if softneck needs a cold snap though.
Lily resides at the allotment gardens. One of the gardeners looks out for her and arranges for veterinary care.
Hi Jessie,
Why do you prefer hard neck garlic ?
Soft neck garlic stores better for longer although the bulbs may be a little smaller than hard neck.
Wishing you a very merry Christmas and an even better new Year ahead.
Love the Christmas nose :D
yay kiln!! you must be descended from one of the builders of Stonehenge!! spring action clothes pins or bully clipish things for bubble wrap at ends of greenhouse?? kitchen floor plus Christmas coming must feel like a train wreak looking for a place to happen!! ❤😳
Well if you have holly and you just happen to have a bit of ivy then I’d say of course you need “The Holly and the Ivy” lol. I hope I’m not so old that I’m the only one who remembers that Christmas carol. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I remember you climbing up the loft ladder last year doesn’t seem 5 mins ago
I have struggled with garlic too so "ULTIMATE SIN" tesco organic and got 50 in 5 weeks ago and they are up about a foot now. Looking strong and our first real frost hit them last night so hoping they split well over this cold snap.
Hi Jess, very nice to see you enjoying your allotment plot full of lovely greens.
I would love to know where do you got the seeds of the tree cabbage from? Can't find it anywhere to buy. 😔
Keep up with the good work. It's very therapeutic to watch your videos!!! 👏👏👏👏
The only way to eat crumpets, mind you I put sugar on mine! xxx
😂😂😂 what did that silly sister of your not buy shite loads of garlic (kidding Johanna 😊). When in doubt I buy organic garlic and use that not grow. You should scatter some of that poppy seed along the path into the allotment. Great update hope your both doing well have a fantastic week 🐝 safe
Jessie could you use the mini bulldog clips from wilkinsons or poundland to secure the bubble wrap ? I used to use them in my greenhouse .
anorher lovely video jessie
I'm just wondering if there is any sign of life in your pond at this time of year?
Great vlog once again Jessie, why may i ask do you prefer hardneck to softneck? And, what is the actual difference? Fabulously pimped wreath
Just a thought Jessie, clothes pegs might work with your bubble wrap. cheers Dave

Cheers ❤️
Interesting you had a crumpet for breakfast. We tend to have one with a cuppa before bed. Sorry you had a problem getting garlic, I personally cannot stand it, but then a lot of the veg items people grow on their allotments are not to my taste.😉😎
I grew Fat Baby achocha this year. The spiky bits are annoying because they go brown almost the second after you harvest them. I'd rather a smooth variety like you have.
But, please, how do you cook/eat achocha? Jinxy
I’m putting together a greenhouse Saturday just like yours and wonder if you have any tips. I’m throwing a greenhouse raising party in hopes people will pop over to help my husband before he gets mentally drained. Do you use regular bubble wrap or something specific made for greenhouses?
What do you do with your Achocha? Do you eat it raw or cook it, if so how?
What would be the problem with just buying a bulb of eating garlic in a supermarket and planting those? (I'm sure there's a reason, just curious as to what it is!)
Most supermarket garlic is soft neck and is often treated with some kind of chemical to stop it from sprouting.
Honestly Jessie you could have at least put a new bow on.
ive seen garlic onions and shallots in wilko for 70% off ,,,bargain
Never heard of achocha, what is it, what does it taste of and how do you cook it please
Early season you add them to salads tasting a bit like cucumber, late season you remove the seeds and fry like peppers. I have a couple of big jars of pickled achocha to see me though winter.
@@johnyewdall398 thankyou. That's really helpful. May try some next year, are they difficult to grow.
@@jeanhelliwell8160 Grew them this year for the first time. If you can grow runner beans you can grow achocha. They are prolific plants - mine were 7 foot up a tepee and back down to the ground in no time.
@@johnyewdall398 oh wow, definately going to try them then. Thankyou for your help.
Love the wreath Jessie…..how do you dry the whole limes ?
I have some garlic I can send you if you’re stuck….
Why do you prefer hard neck garlic,I grew both types last year,neither were brilliant but usable.Sown some soft neck,maybe I should get some more hard neck.Thoughts?
HI if you go on Amazon you can buy round clips i use them on raised beds even the March winds wont pull them off how can i contact you i will send you some through the post these are great for poly tunnels
Yes Jessie it is December. -- December 7th 1941 -- " A day that will live in infamy " 2,403 Americans died to fight the Nazis for European freedom. Freedom is precious. Ray Delbury Sussex County NJ USA
It's an allotment channel bless her
I saw it Jess👍how do you use ochocha?
Buy garlic at
grocery store
J my garlic is $26 for 2 bulds which they say iare half pond
And , ummm is this the garlic that you were never going to grow again? Maybe you are getting cosmic help with that😂
shhhhhhhh Jaynee! Shhhhhh!!!!
@@JessieatPlot37 ok I am shhhhhhhed 😁
Please explain why you can’t plant garlic bulbs from the market? Are they soft neck? What is the difference? Thank you for the vlog. Happy December!👏👏👏👏👏
They are soft neck and treated with chemicals to prevent sprouting.
Soft neck are much longer keeping and can be planted from late winter to late spring. Hard neck types don't keep as well and are usually planted late autumn to grow overwinter. Supermarket garlic can be successful if you get locally grown bulbs . A lot comes from China nowadays and may contain anything from covid23 to hidden listening devices.
Shop drought garlic works well Jess.
Did you know it is illegal to take wild holly.
