    Have now started doing what a experienced Allotment grower does, is pot seedlings up into a 7cm pot, and plant bigger, definitely working!!! Plus makes sense if the ground isn't quite ready.

      Very wise!! That’s one of my learnings from this year is to pot up poor seedlings when I’m not quite ready for them 🪴

    Great video 👍 🙂
    As to keeping / not keeping the cage ... my thoughts would lean towards keeping it & using it to grow soft fruit in it so that the cage can keep birds off of the fruit

      Thank you! & for sharing your thoughts on the cage, that’s a good point… lots to ponder 💭

    Great pointers for choosing an allotment, Dora. I had the choice of 4 on a small site of 10 plots. It was relativeley easy for me as all were overgrown with weeds, I choe the one which required the least work to clear. Your sunflowers look amazing by the way.

    • @doras.allotment
      @doras.allotment  3 місяці тому

      Were they similar sizes/location? Good luck with the weed clearing over the winter. Are you going to cover them over or get digging?

      @doras.allotment Hi Dora. Yes, they were all similar size and basicly

    • @robineasby5328

      Sorry. I was saying, they are ten plots in a line so all similar orientation as far as the sun shines. I have had my plot a number of years now. I will be covering any bare beds with empty compost bags with holes pierced in them.

    Thanks Dora, I love South Wales, where did you visit may I ask ? My Mum was born in Pembrokeshire, and I'd love to visit again but it's a long journey from us on the Essex coast ! You were fortunate to have such nice plots to choose between, but of course that makes the decision that much harder,. I would have been tempted by the greenhouse too, but I think you chose the right plot in the end !

    • @doras.allotment
      @doras.allotment  3 місяці тому

      Isn’t it pretty! This was ogmore-by-sea as my friends live nearby - was such a calming spot. Pembrokeshire really is sudden but you’re right quite a trek from your direction- worth it though 😃
      You’re so right, I did a LOT of back and forthing as it felt like a commitment. I am definitely pleased with my selection though - got there in the end. Thank you for watching again this week ☺️

      @doras.allotment  3 місяці тому

      Hi 👋🏻 this is a ‘tree spinach’ - is that the same as what you’re growing? It wasn’t quite as tall until it set seed but blimey it’s impressive… as for how it’s so big… I haven’t given it much attention. Thank you for watching ☺️

      Hi George 👋🏻 thank you, pleased you thought so - I was worried it was a bit of a nonsensical ramble.
      Haha! I’m sadly not heading there this autumn as I have other plans - I’ll have to get more organised next year 😃

    if sun is the true source of light then how come you human slaves can only look at the sun during sunset times as if the sun burns with less intensity but that can't be because sunset at one location is morning afternoon evening sun else where ?
