    Surprising what you can get done in a short space in time when everyone put their mine to it. Thank you for sharing the moth.
    ♻️Happy gardening, Terry King.

    I cannot believe how well the plot cleared up, and how quickly! Well done to the whole family! Well done!
    So exciting to see you already getting those Christmas spuds in there.
    That floor in the greenhouse is just amazing 😊

    fantastic transformation yous have done, love the name " the horse shoe allotment ". If you arent putting beds in that greenhouse that had the mares tail in it, when the mares tail comes back pour just a bit of petrol and 2 stroke oil on it. the lad next door to me does that and it never seems to come back to that place. Obviously i wouldnt do that on any beds, but on footpaths and solid floors it will be ok. Deek Sophie flexing her guns hahaha. I am dying to see how different it will look again next year when everything is growing. AWESOME 👍

      I think I'll grow in pots in the greenhouse. I've seen boiling water and salt get rid of weeds so I might try it 😁
      Haha she's a good grafter 💪🏽😂 complains when she sees bugs or creepy things
      And we can't wait to see it flourish!

    We had a few elephant moth caterpillars this year, on rose bay willow herb, which I am always pulling out as the field next to the garden is full of it.

    At the bottom of your video description where it says transcript your first line says "hi i'm naked already" and i thought blimey have i missed this years naked gardening day again🤣🤣
    Anyway you have all done really well it must have been the bacon sarnie or as i call it the bacon buttie which by the way i love, with a slice of black pudding, black pepper and brown sauce, now i'm flippin' hungry🤣🤣
    It has drastically improved and that's because of you lot, looking forward to seeing all the stuff growing on there now, and i agree 100% with what you said about putting flowers down behind the tunnel and on that soil bit especially ones to attracts the pollinators. Oh and to stop them cats sprinkle some Cayenne Pepper or Garlic Powder they don't like the smell, both work for me. Take Care.

    I have those frickin horrible weeds here they are an absolutely F’in pain. Ok cool “The Horseshoe Allotment” sounds fab. Looks fab soil though so should be ok.

    The compost does look great 👍🏼 I would say no dig as it’s got added compost to the top of the bed. Not dug up soil from beneath??
    Great to see the progress you’ve made in such a short time. ❤
