A lot of hard work! Great how your videos deal with the whole process from ordering, sowing and preparing the finished bouquet of flowers. I enjoyed seeing the Pig and the Alpacas making a guest appearance! Great video, hope you get to 10,000.
Hello from Cornwall (although I’m originally from Barnsley). Really loving your channel and it’s been brilliant for helping establish my own cutting garden. Thanks for all the great tips!
I really enjoyed this video. I will have a greenhouse by snow fall (so exciting!) I'm in zone 6 and looking forward to overwintering some hardy annuals 🙂 Thanks
The seed compost that’s like a bag of sand might be usable mixed with peat or other compost and used to propagate cuttings as they like a sandier mix. Or even used in soil blocks. I use a little sand in my soil blocks and it works well in the tiny size soil blocks. I had trouble finding fine enough perlite for those, and the bigger lumps weren’t great for the stability of the tiny blocks, so I switched to a more sandy mix and happy with it,
Hi Sarah, Cerinthe is a hardy annual. To -5 so if you were going to overwinter it in the greenhouse or tunnel it will be fine. I'm in Ireland and mine have self seeded and grow outside and flower earlier the next year. I will grow another batch in trays in the polytunnel too
Hi great to see you back again, I have never sown seeds during the winter months, silly question but do the only grow so big then stop in the cold , and how do you stop them from freezing over the winter months , I can see this method will save a lot of time , thanks Hun jo busy doing a flower list lol
Cerinthe, whilst some websites only list the Spring sowing dates, they are hardy down to minus 5 and will self seed. Higgledy garden says on their website that they sow a batch direct in Sept. The Thompson Morgan website recommends sowing in Sept Oct, and I’ve seen them listed amongst the Lisa Mason Ziegler inspired “Cool flowers” recommendations for indoor sowing in autumn. I’m gonna be sowing a few this week in a cold frame and doing the rest direct in Spring.
Hi Sara, can you tell me, do your consider your vermiculite to be course or fine? I'm trying to decide what to buy. I'm so excited that you are almost to 10K subscribers! You go girl!!
Woohoo 10k! Congrats. I'm having major greenhouse envy. I think your big trays might be the size of my whole greenhouse 😂 I think the cerinthe would be fine in the greenhouse to overwinter and go out late winter/early spring for early foliage filler. They're chunky little seedlings though so may be straight into pots.
Does stock overwinter well for you? Can it withstand a light frost or do you keep it in the greenhouse til srping? And does larkspur do well as a seedling for you? As opposed to direct sowing in the ground? Great video. Thank you!
Congrats on hitting 10k. I joined in when you were just under 3K! I love your videos, your frankness re.successes & failures. 2 quick questions…is the euphorbia you mentioned ‘euphorbia oblongata’? Beautiful! And do you grow Ammi major and visnaga?or just one, & why? Am trying to decide which to try…maybe both!
Came to see what you planted but I can’t figure that out because I am American and can’t understand what you are saying clearly > could you post the names in a comment ?

Don’t worry about masking the glass. Any spots of paint that get on it can scrape off easily with a razor blade once it’s dried.

Congratulations on almost reaching 10k! I really enjoy your videos and your style! Cheers from the most southern tip of mainland Canada!
It was good to see that I'm not the only one who let's seedlings die....

I have tray-table envy... I wish I had someone near me to make me trays like that.

Hiya, you can use a wee pot for scoopin' your vermiculite and it'll pour out the holes like a seive.
Callum.
Great idea Callum! Thanks
@@bloomandgray nae problem! Using 2 pots and twisting 1 will control the flow better too .
Regarding your greenhouse gravel floor. You can purchase horse stall
Mats and that will solve your problem. I bought mine as needed and is finally completely covered. Works well!
Woohoo 10k! Congrats. I'm having major greenhouse envy. I think your big trays might be the size of my whole greenhouse 😂

When do you sow your Dahlias from seed
Love to know what sort of Lawn Mower/Brush Cutter you were using to cut your field. Think I would like one!
Does stock overwinter well for you? Can it withstand a light frost or do you keep it in the greenhouse til srping? And does larkspur do well as a seedling for you? As opposed to direct sowing in the ground? Great video. Thank you!
Great video. Are those the Container wise seed trays? Do you like them?
Great video..🤞🤞🤞many more subscribers.
Do you have a link at all for the seed trays you're using? They look like a great size!

Thank you!! it’s euphorbia marginata! I grow ammi majus, I think it has a nicer look to it. X
Do You freeze the larkspur before sowing?
10,000 🎉
hello! question: do you ever direct seed your hardy annuals?
thanks for the great videos, been learning a lot from you!
you don’t have to mask off glass. paint comes off of glass with a razor blade very easily
