    A lovely video Dora. ❤
    An IBC tank would definitely be a great bonus for you and will fill up in no time during the winter. It must be a pain having to keep taking your own water to the allotment. Everything coming along nicely 👍❤

      Thank you so much 🥰 it will be SO much better! In a way I’m thankful we haven’t had a roaster of a season for this reason.
      Ps I’ve just subscribed to your channel too ☺️ look forward to seeing your plot.

    Dora I just finished a loong day's work, wrecked, saw you'd posted and I gotta tell ya this is a tonic. The music, the chilled vibe, everything is exactly what I need right now with my little cup of tea. Thank you! Ps I love the sunflower updates that thing's a beast!

    I wish here in America we had allotment gardens. Here it’s more about concrete and home owner associations than actual gardens I enjoyed watching

    That cob at 10:10 looks very interesting! It seems to contain both the male pollen part & the female tassles from the cob! That is super interesting and potentially game changing if you can save those seeds, maybe you've created a self pollinating corn

    Just subscribed to your channel Dora. What a great allotment you have ! Love the relaxing vibe you have. I'm a bit envious of your fruit harvest. My apples and plums have neen a no show this year. Hopefully my autumn fruiting raspberries will be more successful. Looking forward to your next post.

    • @doras.allotment
      @doras.allotment  4 місяці тому

      Aw thank you so much 🌞 I must say the plums are lacking considering the size of the trees, I need to review pruning next year as I left them to it this year - but the apples really are a treat! 🤞🏻🤞🏻 for your raspberries and thank you for watching and subscribing

    Hello Dora, IBC tank brilliant plan, but also get 2 or 3 wooden pallets and place the IBC on top of them. Some plastic guttering from DIY and tubing will get the water from your shed into the IBC.

      Hi David 👋🏻 thank you so much for sharing this - I’ve taken a screen shot of your advice to help remind me when the time comes!

    • @davidshinn6501
      @davidshinn6501 4 місяці тому

      Hi Dora .Over time we have set up several IBC tanks feeding from old garage roofs around the edges of our allotment site. But the source I use most is from one of the gutters attached to a small communal shed near my plot which feeds into an ordinary garden butt which is then linked to another open topped one which I use as a dip tank to fill my watering cans.Quicker than using a tap and only involves cheap simple fittings.Whereas IBC fiittings seem to vary a lot .

    • @doras.allotment
      @doras.allotment  4 місяці тому

      @@davidshinn6501 that’s a good consideration, thank you. I’ll have to ensure I don’t lose my other open topped connected butts in the process - the more the merrier 🌞

    • @georgemartin9618
      @georgemartin9618 4 місяці тому

      The dip tank idea is a brilliant suggestion. It's so slow filling watering cans from any tap and if you leave one filling it's either overflowing or you forget to come back because of some distraction. Emma's allotment seems to have this dip tank system but I think it's off the mains .

    Well done Dora, you just went rocketing past the one thousand subscribers mark .
    Once again you forgot to tell us to like and subscribe but it's ok I've done it for you .
    Your plot is certainly earning it's keep with all the lovely vegetables you're taking home continuously. Plumbing up the ibc tank should be good for a laugh or two and will make a nice vlog on its own in the bleak winter months when little else is happening. I loved your little trip to Daylesford ,you should consider a full tour as other successful vloggers have done .
    Keep on growing, mowing and showing and we'll see you in the next episode.

      Thank you for your support!! I did start to ask when I was filming but cringed myself out so didn’t manage it haha. Thank you for the reminder again.
      I imagine you’re right in terms of providing some entertainment 😂 will be a whole lot better having the extra supply!
      Pleased you enjoyed daylesford snippets, good idea ☺️
