I was a little late watching this one but glad I did. Like to see how you pruned your berries. I'm hoping to have my blackberries I planted this year take off next year and I'll be getting some raspberries in also.
I'm glad you found the video helpful Frank! Pruning can make such a difference in berry production. I'm sure those blackberries will get away next year. Wishing you lots of success with your blackberries and raspberries next season!
I’ve collected 6 bags full of leaves so far and put it into my compost with 5 bags of horse manure and the vegetable waste. I will be collecting more leaves too.
Hi Barry & Mrs W. I've put gutter guard (mesh) over my gutters to protect them from leaves collecting- saves me a lot of time scraping them out. We also have them on the house gutters. They are not expensive. I have hung my sunflower heads on my bean arch.I am moving some of my soft fruit to my new allotment, to give my bushes at home more space and light. Hopefully all the plants will appreciate it and thrive. I m watching the weather forecast like a hawk, so I can get my salvias, fuchsias, dahlias and Cannas under cover and safe.I have just started collecting my leaves for next years leaf mulch. We have some beautiful leaf mulch from last year ready to go on the flower borders. I've been busy planting my bulbs. The squirrels and mice took most of them last year, so I have put chicken wire over them this year, fingers crossed they will be ok. Happy gardening 🙂
Thanks for sharing your gardening updates! It sounds like you have a solid plan in place to keep your plants thriving. Do keep an eye on the weather forecast. Wishing you all the best with your new allotment!
@@nodignorfolkgardener4575 Still watching the weather forecasts but it seems that we are in for a couple of weeks of above average temps so giving me more time to prep all my tender plants for over winter storage.
Great question! The sowing dates for broccoli depend on the variety, but generally, you can start sowing early spring, but we sow ours beginning of June and transplant early July!
My raspberries are incredible. They started fruiting in June and are still producing at the moment. We’ve even got strawberry plants outside which are flowering and producing fruit. I’ve got fuschias flowering too. The garden seems to be as confused about this year’s weather as we are.
Wow, it sounds like your garden is thriving! It’s amazing how resilient plants can be, even in unpredictable weather. Keep enjoying those delicious fruits Jayne!
Your promised guide to changing that bed to no dig sounds interesting. We still have a few hat we need to change over. Great montage with the chickens. I do love a good montage.
I need help on raspberries, i haven't a clue what im doing lol. Which one to cut which one not to cut. Your video was really good i need to get out and about collecting leaves
I'm glad you found the video helpful! When it comes to raspberries, it's all about knowing which canes to prune. Feel free to ask if you have any specific questions!
Great to hear your onions turned out amazing! For storage, hang them in a cool, dry, frost-free place - such as a shed - until you need to bring them into the kitchen or a pantry or cellar. This will help them last longer!
I had to stop watching after i saw you "clearing" a gutter. Never came across a time when my hand wasn't the best tool. You've used a "trowel "? Hmmm. Not a person i need to take advice from so. Planting November advice hopes dashed. Shall go elsewhere
Thank you both - great tips on this video as always! Love the chickens
We really appreciate your kind words! It means a lot to us that you enjoy the content and the chickens!

Wow, that's impressive! It sounds like your compost is going to be super rich and healthy for your garden. Keep up the great work!
@ thank you, I’ve also started adding some nettle tops and comfrey too.
That's great! Nettle tops and comfrey are great additions to any compost heap. Your plants will thrive!

What are the sowing dates for the three types of broccoli.
Great question! The sowing dates for broccoli depend on the variety, but generally, you can start sowing early spring, but we sow ours beginning of June and transplant early July!

Thank you so much for your kind words Ken! I'm so glad you liked the montage, and I hope the no-dig guide helps with your beds!
Don’t get any canes stuck in your leg Mrs W 😂

Nice of you to think about the hedgehogs well said !
Thank you! I really appreciate your support for our little prickly friends!

@nodignorfolkgardener4575 how do U know which cane to keep and which one to cut?
My onions were amazing this year. I have tied them in bunches, but can you tell me the best place to store them. Relatively new to gardening. Thanks.
Great to hear your onions turned out amazing! For storage, hang them in a cool, dry, frost-free place - such as a shed - until you need to bring them into the kitchen or a pantry or cellar. This will help them last longer!
@ many thanks I have in greenhouse but will move to the garage.

Some berries are harmful to dogs !
Absolutely! It's important to keep our furry friends safe by knowing which berries to avoid such as cherries and holly berries!

I appreciate your perspective! Everyone has their own methods, and I hope you find the gardening tips that work best for you!
Why does it make any difference how you clear a gutter ? Surely it’s the advice being given not the technique in this instance?
😊👍👍👌
