    At last - so many gardening videos on youtube, all with hyper american accents, loud, and usually crap, music enhancement, here is something simple and well explained that tells it as it is. A pleasure to watch and listen to. You are on my list

      @binajoshi6973 5 років тому

      Totally agree. Lovely to be able to connect to the pure surrounding sound of nature, no cheap trashy royalty-free music, and set in the good old weather of Blighty which I (and most viewers!) can probably relate to :-)

    This is really useful thank you. I won't use your piss solution (1-4 water plus wood) because if anyone knew that they would be inclined to taste that. However the structure, the egg shells, the pruning and watching for disease is really useful. I have a new east-west raised bed at my house in Seattle and will use these tips to grow various tomatoes! Thanks for filming this and the other videos!

  • @nanatrish7771
    @nanatrish7771 4 роки тому

    I have just discovered your videos and enjoying them. I am still relatively new to vegetable gardening but had a very successful tomato crop last year. We experience quite dry summers and charged for water. I therefore water my garden by hand. At the time of planting I insert a plastic milk bottle by each plant. Holes have been punched in the bottom to drip the water into the soil. Every three days, I top the bottle with rainwater and a weekly calcium boost with rinsing from the latest milk bottles, and put the lid back on the bottle. This stops the water from evaporating too quickly.

    I’m a new gardener. Last year my daughter Colleen and I grew a cutting flower garden here on the farm. As the head gardener she managed the garden to a beautiful harvest. My daughter Marcia planted tomatoes and perennials. This year I’m on my own and have started 700 vegetable and flower seedlings with more on the way. With covid19 who knows maybe I can feed the neighbours!? Time will tell. Thanks

    I've decided to grow some veg this year but i have a problem, I live in a groundfloor flat with 2 cats who will play with any plantlife i have inside, They are outdoor cats but seem to enjoy eating my plants so.... I have access to the garden and plan to use growbags under a pvc walk in greenhouse thing for my tomatos, I will germinate the seeds first on tissue and then into small pots before transplanting outside to bags. I'm In Essex, one of the warmest spots in the UK and I've bought myself a load of pots compost and seeds for this year. Your vids have been a great help getting me up to speed on what i need to be doing, thanks for sharing, appreciated! :)

    If you a lot of clay in your soil blossom end rot can be caused by the soil being to acidic for the plant to absorb the calcium so add lime. This year all my large tomatoes did this and after adding lime two weeks later all new tomatoes were perfect.
