    Great idea with the Sarpo Mira seed potatoes! I’ll have to get my hands on some to try next year.
    Yay, good to see the growth on your sweet Garleek’s 😍
    I’ve not had much luck with basil either… and carrots 😂
    What a treat being given a fig from your neighbour.
    Great to see how a garden update 🥰🥰 I do the same just staring at my garden growth 😅

      Hey Dora 👋 I'll see how many I get if I have enough I can send you a few 🤞 basil is so hard to grow I need to spend a few day with a basil grower in Ireland to see how they do it over here 🤔👀
      The fig was literally a stick with one small lead and now it's a miniature tree! It's growing really well since I got in back at Easter!
      So pleased you enjoyed the update, back to the plot next week! 🤩♥️

      @@thetinygarden_ oh bless you that’s so thoughtful, no expectations here though as you must ensure you have enough!
      That would be interesting. I seem to be able to germinate it (albeit at a low rate) but then take my eye off the ball and let it dry out!
      It sounds wonderful - I am stopping myself from buying one until I’ve found the right spot, likely next year now.
      Looking forward to seeing the allotment again next week ☺️ happy gardening! X

    Garden is looking amazing! I'm shocked you find it so easy to germinate celery. It's my nemesis plant. I have basil coming out of my ears but all my celery just refuses to appear for me. We transformed our front garden into a tiny vegetable patch and as much as I want to potter around in my jammies staring at everything, I think people would think I'm a mad woman. Although someone saw me taking a photo with my cucumber trellis so I'm halfway there. The vegetable gardeners tend to understand the pride photos though.

    • @thetinygarden_
      @thetinygarden_  5 місяців тому +1

      Thank you Elena 🤗 those Hudson celery seeds were pelleted as well so I was unsure how they would do! I always sow them on top of the soil I don't cover them over I think the light helps them to germinate!
      😂😂 Take all the photos!! It's always nice to look back at photos and see how the garden changes year to year!

    Your home garden is well lush, Laura 😍 Beautiful 😊 the pea/ bean walk has a lot of impact and delighted to see all of your carrott and parsnip seedlings growing strongly (no good signs of either in here yet)
    A lot of tomatoes 🍅 😀...haven't grown any of those ....
    Hopefully, your knee gets better soon 🤗 mind yourself💚🌿

    • @thetinygarden_
      @thetinygarden_  5 місяців тому

      Hey Maiju 👋 thank you!! I cannot wait for the pea bean wall to be covered in foliage, I think it will bring a bit of intimacy to the garden! No carrots or parsnips yet?! 🙈 Oh no, I'll have to post you a root veggie box later in the season! But there is still time! I bought fresh seed and the minute I opened the carrot packet the smell from the seeds was so strong (never noticed that before) maybe that had something to do with the germination?
      So many tomatoes I hope its the sunniest summer ever so they all thrive 🤣😆 my knee is on the mend thankfully! ♥️X

    Great update Laura, love your garden. I believe strawberry plants loose their vigour around the three year mark, hence a smaller crop. I personally never get round to replacing with the runners and buy new plants.🤭.

    • @thetinygarden_
      @thetinygarden_  5 місяців тому +2

      Hey Kaz 👋 thank you so much! I think you are right on the strawberries, for some reason I had it in my head they lost their vigour after 4 years 🤷‍♀️ but if all else fails I can pop to the local nursey to replace them!! 🍓🤭

    I absolutely love The Tiny Garden Laura. You’ve packed so much in and it all looks lovely. I especially love bean alley.
    Some very fancy names of tomatoes there. Looking forward to seeing some of the different tomato varieties.
    I didn’t occur to me (no idea why!) to remember to save some of my own potatoes for seed potatoes. I agree, the Sarpo Mira do look a healthy potato, as my plants look so much nicer than other varieties hers.
    A bright little Bistro table would look lovely in that space. Amazing how having the plot now means you can keep that space to enjoy sitting in your garden taking it all in.
    Loved this update Laura ❤

      Hey Clare!! You are too kind 🤭 thank you!! so many new tomatoes, I can't wait to see them turn red, I really hope the weather stays good!!
      I had the potatoes in the kitchen on the side and it was the last of the harvest and I thought I would save them and give it a go, it was just by pure chance I thought to do it..I hope I get lots so I can share them.

But chuckle I too did in my knee and on my good leg that I put 80 percent of my weight on so nothing but rest and elevate for 1 to 2 weeks. Ugh but at least I dont have to worry about keeping up with major weeding. Love the woodland look in the flowers too! Cant wait to see how things grow!

    Hi Laura, your small garden is looking so healthy & thriving 😊 I've sown some more carrots & parsnips, never grown parsnips before so fingers crossed 🤞 I noticed a few germinating so I was chuffed to see that 😊 Although I'm wondering how anything is growing properly with this silly weather of late, it's been very cool & even cooler at night, hardly any sun & raining a lot, it's depressing really. My cucumbers in my conservatory are coming along great, & peppers too. I have my potatoes in containers like you at the bottom of the garden mainly because it's a bit more protected from the winds, they're looking so big & healthy. Earlies & main. I'm disappointed in those Zinnia's I bought off line, some are growing but some have been eaten 😢 I think I'll buy them from the nursery again at least last year I had a beautiful show. I planted out the Sprouts last week, I sown those myself & their the early half tall ones, so if everything goes to plan I'll have Christmas dinner sorted 😅 Thanks for the update love always a pleasure, have a lovely weekend. 🌺 🥒 🍅 🥬🌞

      ​@@thetinygarden_ I tried overwintering a jalapeno plant in my second winter of having my garden. I had read that if you could protect it from frost, it would die back a bit but kick back in once it got warm again. I couldn't afford a proper greenhouse type solution, so I tried using plastic tree protectors held in place with bamboo stakes. I can't tell if it was the open top or the strong icy winds that keep blowing the protector off that killed it 😂
      Lesson learned.
      Next time, I would want to bring them inside with proper grow lights and warmer temperatures to see if that works better.
