Allotments are growing not showing
Your plot looks great, Emma , and is the result of all the hard work you have put in. It's an allotment , not a formal Italian garden ! The critics are speaking through their aspidistras !
Emma you are doing a great job, I have an allotment so know how hard work it is, ignore all the negative comment and keep doing exactly what you are doing.
There's no magic in an allotment without character. I'm not sure what some people expect! Your plots are lovely.
I love you, your plot, and your vlog. You're not a bad comedian either. 🤗❤️
I like the wild areas of your plots stuff what other people say
I think you’ve done amazing job by yourself. I don’t have an allotment but I watch every vlog, because I think you’re inspirational. I converted part of my bland, boring garden because of you. Keep doing you 👍
You've done a fantastic job. 😊 One or two Karen's speaking out should NEVER depress you. I've seen you transform your plots into the glory it is. Feed that poor, skinny visitor. He's longing for food and love. Maybe his owner is too stingy with food and love. Sniff. Love your bird. He's super sweet. We deal with voles and can't plant. You are blessed to only deal with bugs. Lol Much love coming your way! ❤
Emma I watched you throughout autumn & winter transform the new plot. You were and continue to be an amazing inspiration. I’ve been a gardener for many years & have learnt so much from you eg wildlife area & addition of flowers for pollinators. I’ve done that on my plot this season & the plot is alive with beneficial insects Never had such good crops. All thanks to you Emma. Look forward to more videos 🤩
Wildlife need somewhere to live and we can provide that by leaving wilder areas in our gardens/allotments and growing wildlife friendlier plants, every little helps. Love your vlogs Emma ❤
Spot on Emma it’s an allotment & yours is lovely lv Irene 😘 xx
Emma ignore the negative comments you’re doing a grand job ! I love your blogs thanks 🙏 keep up the good work 👏👏
Hello Emma, i am a subscriber to your channel and have followed your transformation of the overgrown plot you started with, it is a credit to all the hard work you have put in. So forget about all those who try to knock you down. There are more of us who support you, so keep on truckin !!!!!! as Bob Dylan said. Bryan.
Your plots are great, the wild boundaries are beautiful and I feel sad for anyone that doesn't recognize the balance between gardens and wildlife environments.
I love your wee plot, when is open day
Don't validate troll comments. There are people who get off on being nasty while hiding safely behind a wall of anonymity. They want a reaction, ANY reaction. IGNORE.
I have a neighbor on one side who has let his back garden go pretty wild and unkempt. Though I'm occasionally annoyed by the weeds that keep attempting to encroach into my yard, I'm also enthralled by all the pollinators I see over the fence!
I'm simply amazed at how much you've done with the new plot! If it were me, I wouldn't have had it ready for planting until 2025, LOL. I love your attitude, I love your videos, and I love your allotment! And I like your little change in production style by showing us more of your actual work in fast forward mode. 🙂 (Some garden-tubers only do the walk-and-talk but I don't subscribe to them. I like to see a bit of action/work done, too.)
I'm with all the lovely comments you've had today, Emma. I promised myself I wasn't going to comment on anymore video's I watched as someone added a comment to mine on another great allotment blog and they were really scathing. I always say I'm fairly new to growing and therefore take in any info I can. This person really annoyed me and made me feel stupid. But I felt so strongly about your negative comments I had to add my support to all your loyal followers. YOU ARE A LOVELY PERSON, don't ever forget that 😊
Hi Emma,
I read that comment a few weeks ago and thought how nasty it was, it was there for no other reason than to provoke a response. If your channel isn’t for them, they can watch someone else.
Please be heartened by how many responses they had to that comment, saying exactly that. You garner a lot of love here Emma from people who love what you do. My plot is a habitable mess, as any good allotment should be. We aren’t just growing flowers and veg, we are custodians of the small piece of land we have been blessed to be allowed to tend to, and we have a responsibility to all the other creatures, large and small that share our space. Today my plot has been alive with insects, flying and crawling (I have my first millepede!) and I even have bees still feeding on yet another newly self sown, and ramblingly scruffy, borage! My tiny friends love and cherish my plot and what I do for them, and so do yours. Who gives a monkeys if you won’t win tidy garden of the year. Welcome to real life in the diversity crisis of 2024.
Rant over! But it makes me so mad when people purposely set it to hurt good peeps like you Emma. Remember, thousands of people love you and tune in religiously three times a week to see you being you. As Baz Luhrmann says, remember only the compliments and forget the bad stuff. Those people deserve no head space in your beautiful, scissor losing mind ❤❤
I love your plot, it’s truly beautiful ❤. Take no notice of the sad people who can’t say something positive ☹️.
Where is Einstein, have I missed something? Hope he’s ok 😍
Oh Emma, my heart broke when you said you had some nasty comments.. You don't need to explain anything to anyone! I absolutely love your plot and you work so hard. I always look forward to your videos. Don't let anyone steal your light ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You don't need to justify yourself Emma ..you give us content 3 times a week and your plot is great ..ignore the negative people they obviously have nothing better to do with their time 😊
Well let me blimin counter that hater, Emma, I got the phonecall today that I have finally got my new allotment plot!! You are one of the main reasons I applied to even get an allotment, I'm so excited and your vids have helped push me forward to get to this point. I get to view and sign for it on Thursday.
You truly inspired me, even if all I seem to do is occasionally pop up and go on about planting more spuds and generally being a tad overexcited about spuds 😅 I appreciate well beyond just your spuds Emma 😅.
Please don't be deterred by someone that's obviously a bit bitter and shriveled enough to say such horrible things. There's plenty of people who appreciate just how much you do!! Here's to continuing to be productive! ❤
You are with the majority. Only one plant🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
Cutting away a wild hedge is fine but here in Devon I’ve seen many farms , farm land,
That had a great deal of habitat for wildlife
Have now been turned into housing estates.
I know we need more housing but the cost will be higher than most people think!!!
I don’t understand why some people are so rude, I totally agree with your style of allotment as my style is the same but I would never be horrible about other people’s allotments, each to their own ways. You do you 🥰💕😊
You should pickle your nastursum seeds.
Hallo emmas you the best te moostiun te onkruid wieden te herfst thans te video Top weekend 👍✔️🌿🌾☕⛅🍁💐😅
We have spring now in South Africa going into summer but tge wheather is upside done. Still getting snow in septemver this year😮😮
I'm proud of you for self publishing! You are a published author!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
You do an amazing job at you plot. SINGLE HANDED.
Funny how there are always a few nasty people out there.
If you’ve got nothing nice to , say nothing. Why hurt people.
U dont have to explain Ur self ,if u know about the importance of wild life u know ,my plot is mad and flowery❤️🌻🌻🌻🌻❤URS is lovely xx
Hey Emma..opinions are like arm pits .. everyone has them, but some of them stink ... you are an inspiration, my dear ..absolutely love your attitude towards your allotment, and I think you're doing a great job ❤
Ignore the meanies you do what's right for you.Please may I ask where you get your Jack be little seeds/plants from. I might try them next year. Thanks for sharing 😁
Saying your untidy overgrown plot has put them of getting a allotment themselves.says one thing they are.nt up to the job.if they really be wanted one they would just get one instead of sitting on there butt having a pop at you.these people need to you know what.any way after that rand Emma your doing a good job.x
Autumn is the hardest time of the year on the plot (my opinion). So much tidying and clearing. Take no notice of keyboard warriors. Your plot looks great. Some of the ones near me are sadly jungle like, which is sad. They should be cultivated. I'm worried we may lose them if more people don't take them on. It's mostly older folks on our plots, and I fear many are out of energy. It's great to see young folks growing stuff.
The problem with pollinators this year was the amount of rain at a vital time. On the other hand...I have loads of voles, moles, squirrels, birds and deer!
One more thing. Could you get yourself a cheap battery operated strimmer? It was a life changer for me.
Well i think youve done a tremendous job. Taking on two plots thats hard .I gave up for this year as nothing was growing . Got one crop of rhubarb back in FEB, and then it stopped growing .Love your attitude . Forgot your special phrase. But its, if it aint growing then plant more in the ground, and now your seeing the results .
My sweet peas are still flowering too! Never had them flowering for so long, what’s going on! I’m sorry you’ve had some nasty comments, Emma. But what really is an allotment? It’s a functional space for us to create produce. However it may look is truly secondary to that. My little kitchen garden is certainly not the most pleasing to look at, but I have had kilos and kilos of produce this year. I wouldn’t swap that for a neat and tidy, boring plot from a picture book 😂 fwiw I think your plot is absolutely gorgeous! I can see the hard work, care and attention you give it!
First off all you have 2 Chrildren a husband a job a house and gardens to take care off then two huge alotment plots, how the hell can some people be so mean and nasty and have such a nasty , horrible soul that they leave such a comment.
I have a full-time job. My children are adults. I've a small garden, and I find it difficult to find the time for everything. I've taken on a small plot which is part of my sons garden right at the back it was very overgrown, nothing like your plot I've cleared it and put in 4 beds two I got for nothing from a friend other two we made from wodden beams I took down from my kitchen ceiling ( they weren't anything fancy) I like you don't want to be spending money on a plot I will never own. I did bring pots from my own garden and other things. But again, I'm finding it hard to fit everything in.
People who grow their own food and add to wildlife shouldn't be criticised in any way . Also, nobody knows what other things you or anyone has going on in their life's.
You're doing great❤
I'm in Ireland. I had sweet peas flowering up to Christmas day last year after cutting them back end of October
Emma you have a beautiful allotment. Don't give the haters time of day. It's just pure jealousy.
Hi Emma, I've been subscribed for over a year and not commented before, please do not take notice of a few nasty keyboard warriors they are people who not got anything good to say, do and very very sad. keep doing what you are doing, we enjoy it. x
I would like to see those peoples’ gardens ……… l bet they don’t even grow an indoor plant…❤️❤️❤️
Take no notice of the nasty comments, allotment plots are bloody hard work, we’ve got 1 and a half plots and there’s 4 of us on the so for you to be doing it on your own you are doing a fantastic job and I think your plots look great
Hi Emma here is a thought for you do you know any bee keepers who might like to put a hive in the allotment for you all have a word with the other allotment holders you might come up with the answer
Hallo Emmas Top work te moostuin onkruid wieden the herfst september thans the video Top weekend grootjes 😅🌾🌿🧤🥤🧢🪁✂️🌬💧🎈🍁👌💐
As long as your happy with what you do to your plots that is all that matters it you who pays the rent not moaners and growers just keep doing what your doing ❤
emma let me tell you your plot is really good it has something for everything i wish mine looked more like yours
Keep the good work up Emma !! Love that you care about nature
Gurl...Your plot is lovely and you are my fave garden vlogger to watch. You are so like me in many ways, your style, your chaos and humour, and even your anxiety. Your plot is so real and homely. It's a joy to watch. I would love to spend time in your plot because it looks so welcoming. I am all for nature.
Your plot is lovely Emma x
Those who whine that your plot is overgrown, look awful, blah, blah, blah. They never had a garden or even grown weeds in pots. They don't know or care that gardening is hard work and depends on the weather. So do you boo and say to those nasty garden gnomes ... take some Valerian drops for your internet rabies.
How do you know if those people have ever had a garden or not? Just because someone complains doesn’t mean they’ve never grown anything.
Emma, I just wanted to say how much I have been enjoying your videos. I don't have an allotment but when I did have a garden, I found it very rewarding and also very much work. I can see in your allotment a great deal of thought and work and I think I'd be darn proud if it were mine. Well done!
Rocky is awesome! Please feed Rocky like you do Einstein! He’s so loving and happy and boisterous ❤ We love Rocky!
Emma your plots are amazing you have worked so hard on both of them, I just can't understand why some people are so rude 😢, don't ever let those kind of people get to you, keep up ALL your hard work and never give up, you have helped me so much with my mental health and my own garden THANK YOU
Emma, I wouldn’t worry about it. There are some sad For that take great pleasure in criticising others. You do you
and enjoy your Allotment in the way you do. You do not have to justify yourself to anyone this is your channel and if people want to watch it all well and good if they take something away from it fantastic if they don’t, then they don’t have to watch it again but they do not have to slate you or your efforts.. Anyway, Rocky foxy Einstein and the dickie birds all seem to love your plot so if you have the approval of all the animals that is a ✔️in my book youyou go girl you’re doing a great job and your are an inspiration to many.
Wtf your allotment looks great! Don't worry about dumb comments. They ought to go watch those lawn care videos where they spend hours where they spend hours turning their gardens into golf courses.
My dad is 71 and doesn't watch UA-cam but he loves your videos and your personality. Both he and I have your attitude when it comes to gardening.
Also...I am looking forward to your children's book with Einstein...Rocky...etc 😊
Emma. Youre doing a fab job and if you are happy with it thats all that matters. You have a family outside of your plot utube life.
So good on you.
I have a veg plot which is so over grown did nothing last year or this year due to my father being terminally ill and this year no enthusiasm.
So maybe next year. Take Gemma
Emma, you did an amazing job this year and you are an example for me on indurance and I would have never done so much as you. You can surely be so proud!! Go to the allotment in every weather, do hard work and rewilding area’s. And be funny and cheerful despite some hard periods. You are an example of modern alloment-care. Young people like you are doing good work for the environment. We older people can learn from that! It gives me a lot of inspiration ❤
You don't have to explain yourself when you look back at last year you've done marvels❤
I don’t know why people have got to say nasty things. If it’s put them off they shouldn’t have one anyway.
Emma,ignore people's nasty comments.You have two allotment plots, a home garden, two children and a life outside of the allotments so just be you and do what you want.I never understand why someone who doesn't like you style of gardening would watch you blogs?If they don't like how you garden, no one is forcing them to watch.Personally I like your style of gardening as it inspires me and also makes me realize my garden doesn't have to be perfect either.
Well said Emma. Ignore the naysayers! It’s your plot 🎉
Rocky sounds hungry😢
I so enjoy your podcast and I’m always inspired by your love of gardening. I put in a couple of raised beds in my backyard this summer. Thank you💕🌹🌻🌼🥕🥬🌽🌶️
I think your plot is awesome! ❤❤
Those critical people can just stuff it!
I'm so excited for your self published releases!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Sending love ❤
Take no notice of negative comments Emma, your hard work has changed that overgrown plot into what it is today. It's looking great and things are growing well. You do a great job looking after the wild life and Rocky too.
You definitely don't have to justify yourself Emma, some people are cruel with unnecessary comments.
You've worked so hard on land that otherwise would be left to over grow.
Stand tall Emma ,your little channel and your wonderful personality that encouraged me to garden added to my recovery from mental health . So you helped grow more than plants you help grow people too and for that I thank you .❤
A young woman with a growing family to look after and an allotment that size to care for ..... All credit to you i say .
I was upset when neighbours were aggressive and rude about my front lawn being a wild garden, but I have watched the bees and butterflies from my sofa all summer, and we had a woodpecker collecting insects. So many birds.I have loved it. Let the joy you get overcome the negative.❤
I don't agree with that lady, I watch your videos all the time and for inspiration on my new allotment, mine was greatly overgrown so I'm doing it a bit at a time, it is a lot of work but I'm enjoying it so much. I don't think people sometimes realise how much hard work goes into having an allotment, but it's so rewarding. It's so easy for people watching and criticising from their armchairs. I love your videos, your plot is lovely and the fact you have Einstein and Rocky featuring in your videos makes them very special. I love Robins. I say well done Emma! Keep going! ❤
I wonder if the evil commenters realise the amount of time and effort goes into every episode of Emma's Allotment Diaries.
Planning the shots , locations, shooting angles , filming ,focusing ,fixing , retakes and bloopers etc . Then hours of editing, voice overs , music and then uploading to UA-cam.
Intermingled with all that we have the actual gardening all done single handedly. Not forgetting to feed Einstein and chatting to Rocky before collecting more woodchip . Now multiply all this by three, or four if you count in the new Sunday matinee.
Well done Emma.
Emma, I love your sincerity and determination. When will your 2025 Planner be available in the US? I just ordered a mug!❤
Emma, what you have accomplished with your plots is amazing. Just maintaining an area already cleared is hard work, but on top of that you cleared out and reclaimed a completely overgrown mess. Also, Rocky has the most skinniest and longest tail I have ever seen on a cat! It is always fun to see him show up.
❤You're awesome! You've taken on that totally overgrown plot and singly cleared it to something that is producing, (plus you've had no offer of help from site owners to take away such a huge amount of weed etc!) keep your chin up hun, big hugs from us Emma supporters!
I never get why people feel so entitled to trash other folks on their videos. Just don’t watch and shut up if you haven’t got anything nice to say. Emma, I LOVE your videos and your plot.
I agree gardens don’t have to be perfect but don’t know who wrote the article you mentioned. My garden is very tidy and I had more pollinators than ever before. If the article were true it wouldn’t just be a problem in the UK. I’m just saying a garden doesn’t have to be messy to have pollinators. My comment has nothing to do with your garden. Just the article.
Love your plot, love your allotment diaries. Ignore the negative comments, you are enjoying your plots and it’s a welcoming place for wildlife, that’s all that matters xx
Emma, you've worked very hard on your allotments. No garden has to be perfect, much more interesting! Keep up the great work! 🎉🎉
I dont usually comment on you tube video but I just had too.
I had an allotment 10 years ago, I just found out I was having a child and didn't have the most amount of money to put Into the plot. I kept it for 4 years but because it wasn't completely weed free and booming like all the others that I saw online I decided to give it up. I've been following you for almost a year now and love your way of working. It's about enjoying what your doing and not perfection.
I'm now on a waiting for a plot in my area and excited to do what I can. Not expecting perfect but the amazing fresh homegrown crops. That's all down to your videos.
Keep at it and ignore the haters ❤
How can anyone criticise you so much, you’ve done an amazing job and all on your own. I doubt the critics saw your plot and all the hard work you did over the winter. Well done you for not taking notice of ridiculous people who have nothing better to do! Thanks
Emma I love your plot, it looks so normal. It looks better than my garden so natural xx
we think your plot looks great, don't give the haters a second thought, do you enjoy it? then it's right for you, our garden beds are like a jungle and we love it, wildlife don't need straight lines - big licks from Colin the dog 🐶
You have every right to be very proud of yourself. You've put a lot of hard work into your plot. Anybody that's knows anything about growing anything knows you need the polinators. And we all need to support the wildlife any way we can. Keep doing what your doing. Your doing an excellent job 😊
Your plot is a real inspiration we love watching your videos. Just makes us want to go up to ours even in this rain
Just ignore the horrible comments Emma, you are doing a brilliant job, you are funny and we love your vlogs, please carry on enjoying your allotment and entertaining us, also love seeing Einstein, Rocky and the occasional fox visitor xx
You’ve done a great job.I’m glad you don’t allow negative comments to make you doubt yourself.👏🥰
Please take no notice of the rude and nasty comments, they should mind their own business and keep their uncalled for comments to themselves. You are lovely, your allotment is fabulous, most of us love your content. Im so glad you have toughened up a bit and told them (in your own lovely way) to 'do one' 🤣, I for one love your content 🙂xxx
I’m absolutely shocked that anyone would say anything bad about your plots, you’ve worked so hard and done so well. Ignore them and continue to feel proud of what you’ve achieved
Hi Emma you have done a fantastic job on your plots and definitely need a wild life area .
Your plots are not messy take no notice .
You are doing a great job love watching your blogs xx
Emma you are amazing with everything you have achieved so far , you always inspire me to go to my veggie plot & do something , you have taught me so much in the last 2 years of watching every single 1 of your vlogs , ignore negative unnecessary comments from people , we all think you are Amazing 👏 🙂
Hi Emma your plot is great and having followed you for a while I think what you grow is great , this year as been a challenge for us all but I love your blogs so keep them coming , your doing great 👍😀
The people who choose to make unkind comments obviously haven't seen just how overgrown your new part was when you took it on. They are just sad people who probably don't even own a garden. It also must be difficult to bring many suitable tools to an allotment due to theft etc. Never let them get to you, the rest of us nice people enjoy your blogs.
Our spaghetti squash done very well this year two plants gave us 11 squash and they taste lovely, we could not find any jack-be little at the start of the season.
I'm sad you've had to defend yourself - I find your channel so soothing and inspiring. I love the wildlife area ❤
What everyone forgets is that nature is not tidy. Forest, woodland, meadows. Who keeps them tidy ?
Hi Emma you are doing great, and I didn’t get much pollinators here in my country this year either so maybe there are in hiding, my neighbor had a beehive in her garden and not even one flew over by me lol, have a wonderful day you and your family.❤
I could not believe the progress you made in the new plot let alone got it to the point that you actually were able to grow things.
You are a mom and wife you have way more than the plot to worry about.
Don't pay attention to the haters, they probably never had an appointment or if they did they walked into it being pristine
I'm older andI have some help from my family with moving wood chips and dirt. I also have a riding mower with a cart so I can pull more at a time and still seems like I am not ever done
Go Emma, keep it real
Hi Emma, please could you tell us, or make a video about how you protect your plants when we get a frost? ❤
I think youve done a great job managing two plots especially by yourself , take no notice of the moaning minnies . carry on doing what you do and ignore them bet theyve never grown even a spud .
Your plot is looking beautiful sweet,take no notice of insecure and negative people 😉🙏🌷🌹☔
You really do a fantastic job Emma, plot looks amazing ❤
