    Tony that’s a lot bigger than ours and they claim to be the largest on Long Island! I haven’t been to ours yet but miss it too. Even if you don’t buy anything it’s nice just roaming the place.

    Oh I share your excitement Tony. Garden Centres not open in Scotland yet though. I think your bees would appreciate some roses on your plot. All the best. Mags 🌺🌻🌸🌼

    New to your channel and new to growing veg. Gained so many useful tips from your videos Tony and your camera style so so easy to watch. Find myself laughing out loud regularly from your videos and even my 9 year old daughter has subscribed as she loves gardening. Keep up the great work mate- Rob

    Nice! I visited one of my local garden centres yesterday too. I brought some compost and a cucumber! All my cucumbers died so I've promised myself I will try once more with this one. Like you I was wandering around just for the fun of it even though I didn't really need anything.

    Looking at the veg plant labels, it looks like they come from a nursery over here in Cumbria, just outside of Workington. The bloke who lives across the road from me works there, and he has been back at work the best part of 2 weeks now...I'll ask about the leeks...😁...Steve...🌱

    I really envy you!! Thank you for sharing this visit. Here in Nova Scotia, Canada, we have been in lock down since mid March and it won't be ending any time soon. At least I have my gardens (2 large) and receiving seeds by mail (after long waits) but it sure isn't like getting out and picking plants from a garden centre. Enjoy your time. We are. Your enthusiasm is catchy!!

  • @vanessasmith7474

    The phrase child in a sweet shop springs to mind, I wasn’t going out today but just about to get dressed n off to my local garden centre to who’s open, I was one of your hot wax winners Tony n trying a experiment, growing one in a greenhouse sensation chilli grow, one hydroponic and one in a pot in the polytunnel, all doing really well with chilli on already. Keep the vids coming love em

    @nettie8376 4 роки тому

    So glad for you :) My local garden centre still not open but has been taking orders and doing deliveries a couple of days a week for those that can not pick up their orders, not the same as going in but was able to get compost, chicken sh1t when needed, made a difference, one less stress being able to get those. Take care

    A man out of my own heart Tony. My wife always says I can’t into go into a garden centre and come out with nothing. Unwritten man rule ‘Always buy something in garden centre even if you don’t need it and never use it’

  • @vmcshannon
    @vmcshannon 4 роки тому

    I totally understand your excitement! Ours have been open about two weeks but I’ve been to afraid to go. I drive up and ‘stalk’ the plants from my 🚗! I’ve got a lot of plants started so I don’t really need any but we’ll, you have to look right?

    Did you beans turn up Tony they had my name on the back of them and my post code. Was a few different types of seeds mate 😁

  • @chrisannm5240
    @chrisannm5240 4 роки тому

    I was squeelin' excited for you!! In my state, garden centers, plant nurseries and home improvement centers were all designated as 'essential businesses' and have been open all along and have been mobbed with people everyday buying stuff to set up gardens or do building projects while we are on 'stay at home' lockdown (the only approved outings other than grocery stores).
    But I am *shocked* that no one is wearing masks!! I have been wearing 2 masks and gloves since March and our state will continue with phases of lockdown thru September, so will be wearing masks and gloves until then, if not longer!
    Looking forward to seeing where your new purchases go on your plot 😀

    I always found clays quite expensive compared to other places. But they do have a great stock of different things. I'm sure theirs one round the corner next to Nissan but I've never been to it.

    Hi Tony, when you visited Clays did you see any Celery plants as I only had two seeds germinated then they died.
    Many thanks Colin

  • @HilltopFarmHomestead
    @HilltopFarmHomestead 4 роки тому +1

    Garden Centres are a dying business here in Australia. We have a big chain of hardware/home improvement stores (Bunnings) here, which all have garden centres attached, that offer a huge range at low prices. On the one hand it's great, but the down side is the independents can't compete and the Bunnings store are manned by pimply teenagers that can't help you if you need help or advice. Besides, I never think it's health when a multi national hold a monopoly.
