- The Bean Arches that we moved last week need to be secured. They are cheap garden arches and are not strong enough on their own but doubling them up and some bamboo canes make them really strong!
These are the arches i have: amzn.to/49Opasm
Also this week we are Picking Asparagus, Chard and Nine Star Broccoli. Earthing up Potatoes and Getting the shed tidy for spring!
There is also a fun trip to see the premier of Swede Caroline at the Genesis Cinema.

One of my favorite parts of your videos is watching you make soup by wandering around the garden and finding what looks good, returning to the shed to cook, and then delivering bowls of soup for you and your Mum in your greenhouse. So cozy. So real.
Yes! You inspired me to make this my go to in my garden❤ In the summer I am going to switch to a salad with the same idea. Take a vinaigrette, sjalot and good bread and we have a lovely lunch
Great viewing as usual, If you have space grow some squash up the spare arches. It's all go in the greenhouse now. Stay safe and keep the plants warm. X
I’ve been hanging with Jess, before she even reached 2,000 subs, and I’m still intrigued and delighted for Tuesday to get here. Also to see Miss Lilly. I love that kitty. ❤
Those two days when the shed is tidy are priceless and perfect 🤣
hahahhah! exactly that
😂 2?
I absolutely approve if that tidy shed 😊😊😊
Ooooh, those continentals!!!!!
The very thought of Jessie wandering around London with a chard plant to go to a movie is hilarious. 😂 The things we see on public transport, lol.
The bean arch looks great. We have one the same and need to rebuild 2 long beds so we may get another 2 arches for them. They would make a nice tunnel to the greenhouse by our kitchen. At the moment most of our arches are made from chicken wire and fencing wire.
We grow far too many French and Runner beans and do not eat all the Greek Gigantes so we are doing butter beans and trying edammame this year.
I grow yellow dwarf beans, much easier to spot when picking 😊
I remember garlic fear, lol! My maternal grandfather swore blind his whole life that he HATED garlic : what he didn't know was that my mum sneaked garlic into pretty much all the dishes he said were his favourites 😄😎
Thanks for bringing back that memory!
Love the Shidy Ted 😂 must do mine. Not even got my potatoes in the ground yet the ground is so wet and claggy. Some folk who put them in as usual have found they have rotted!!
It's really surprising how long we can put up with and keep adding to an untidy situation just by telling ourselves that we are too busy or we'll tackle it and sort it later. Spring has arrived,no it's gone and it's back and it's gone again next season will be autumn 😊😊😅😂
Hey Jessie, All hail the tidy plot day then in 24 hours it will change to farewell to the last day of the tidy plot. Until we meet again next year! Last year I tried 3 varieties of French beans all green and only had a couple as the squirrels just trashed every plant. This year we have a prevention to their distraction. Looking forward to those this year. I might look for some of the Franchi varieties next year. I do always look forward to Tuesday to see your video. I do try many varieties based on what you grow and like as well as other channels also. Take care be safe bye for now, Steven
Hi Jessie. Please do try the chilli - garlic cocktail for watering your plants, it really does work against slugs and aphids, also you won’t need to put the chilli down for the rodents as you already have it in the cocktail
Hi Jessie, sowed my cosmos and zinnias yesterday. My first sowing of cosmos back in march had very poor germination. Hopefully we get a good display later in th year. Nine star broccolli growing well hope to harvest soon, also taunten dean and daubenton kale. Happy days.
Lol, that's funny, I'm really behind with flower sowing too (I blame the weather). I sowed zinnia and cosmos yesterday and also have whirlygig.
Hi Jessie and your Mum, good job cleaning out the shed & finishing off your lovely arch too. Cant.wait to see them covered in climbing plants. ❤ fast worker on earthing up your potatoes 😊 aww, lovely Lil and gorgeous girlies too ❤ glad you enjoyed swede Caroline. Our weather was lovely today but, the window was chilly 🥶 another great video. Thanks for sharing and take care 😊
I notice every year your plot looks more and more amazing ❤ all your and your mum's hard work really shows 😊 still so many things that you grow I haven't grown yet but keeps me inspired to . I love garlic in almost everything 😋 I always grow plenty of it. Looking forward to seeing all your plants and flowers thriving on the plot 😊❤🍻
I think I've still got that vegetable gardening book somewhere, I'm going to dig it out
Love the look of the arch tunnel I wish I could get Greek giganti seed in 🇦🇺
It’s 6° here every day. I have put straw on top our my earlies that came up as we still having a frost now and again and now I have had to put compost on top.
I need to clean my shed as well. Last winter the sheds from the neighbors were robbed out but they just opened the door of my shed and ran away. The plastic from the polytunnel was blocking the entrance 😉
hahahahhaha, excellent strategy :D
Several Morning Glories would look nice with the beans on the arches.
I sowed my cosmos and zinnias dirctly in may and had abundance
The tunnel arch of dreams! I love what you have done with them Jessie. The dahlia beds along the back will look stunning. Your compost manure as a mulch on your dahlias after planting should hopefully deter the pesky slugs and snails. That dries out to a nice crispy layer they don’t like much. Looking forward to seeing the display 😊
Busy busy busy lol , great job Jessie and congratulations to you , say hi to your mum and keep up the good work xx
I'm impressed your shed looks bigger and very tidy❤
So nice when its like this!
Good morning Jessie and mum
Your she looks fabulous. I’m loving your arches all in line in and row, can’t wait to see all your bean vines growing over them all, and Would be nice to see a bit of floral vines along with your beans you are planning on growing on your arches. Your allotment is really impressive this year with all you and your mom have been doing on your allotment. Your greenhouse looks spectacular love your new flooring where you had moved the planting table to the side looks like it works much better than having it in the back of your green house. Oh the cosmos flowers they would absolutely look lovely around your plot. I may have to go buy some myself to plant up in my backyard here in Arizona. Thanks for sharing your allotment videos I’m always looking forward to watching your videos every week. Have a great rest of your day. Karen from Arizona
Yes!! Cold wind bbrrr. Hail stones, thunder, and lightning. Variety not wanted. I do admire the new looking and tidy greenhouse and shed. Lots of sowing for me also in Cambridgeshire. WCL
Love all your arches like that it will be like a tunnel of climbers
Much deserve was that trophy... I'm doing yard long french beans this year and hoping for a whopper ,I especially cannot wait to dish them up for lunch and seeing the families face when they tuck in 😅
So pleased you went to the premier with your Shropshire seaweed hat 🤪
I have 2 9star broccoli plants on the go and have taken a cutting from one which appears to be growing, I also have 4 large taunten Dean kale plants which have kept us in greens all winter. Currently I have 6 cuttings from those growing well. You would be welcome to some but I'm not sure they would survive the rubbish post at the moment. This year I'm trying a new one called cottagers kale. Which I think is perenial.
So glad your still enjoying the zinnias they are a stunning green colour. I have basically given up sowing them and cosmo in trainers I just chuck on the soil 😅. I grow my dwarf beans in hanging baskets. Have a marvellous week both of you, Ali 🥶🌞🇨🇦
Love your vids, Jess! You do inspire me. Keep them coming!
OMG, the premiere of Swede Carolina...soo funny that you as a vegetable influencer got head hunted...sceeeeam. What fun!!!
Just potted up my nine star broccoli. Looking forward to pickings next year. Time Team is still going strong on UA-cam.
Shidy Ted! 😂😎😂 I remember that 😂
hahahah!
Hiya Jess, oh well done on your prize Congrats. Cheers Luv Ontario Canada 🇨🇦🐝
Great progress Jessie. Love the arch tunnel. You have tremendous patience with those chickens digging up your hard work and you may need a plank across your beds butting up to the dahlia bed if you are going to tiptoe through there repeatedly! LOL Cheers!
Hi Jessie and mam thanks for another great video. I was busy sowing some Cosmos/Zinnia seed last night. One of the Cosmos variety is called Cupcakes. I had a giggle when I saw you were only sowing them also. I've sown some Dwarf French beans purple Amethyst also. Maybe next year I will try a larger variety. What recipe do you use for your rhubarb cake Jessie? Thanks again Liz
We harvested our nine star 2-3 weeks ago it wasn’t as big as yours we have 3 smaller plants. I have sown asturian tree cabbage because we loved that but it died in that winter you on about and our Taunton dean kale.
Hi Jessie, I am enjoying this and last week's vlog. Got a new hip last Tuesday. So wishing I was out in the garden. All the best.
cracking job on the shed jessie lovely video
Amazing video as always.
I grow cobra climbing beans every year leave a few pods on the plants and when they dry out a bit save for next year. Dry them a bit more and save in a dry place and use next year never fails.
Lovely vlog as always, Jessie. I'm jealous: my Duke of York whites are still hiding in the cold Pembrokeshire soil, but the DoY reds are springing up. Most successful experiment so far is the tubs of spuds growing in the (unheated) greenhouse: we had our first picking last Friday! 😎
I Always grow Blauhilde ..😊 Nice video thanks! 💐
I grow necker gold yellow climbing and violete purple. We have grown saved seeds from them every year now for about 7 years the purple ones are so tasty and prolific
I Love the new dining area 😍 😂
🐝Thanks for the great video🌻 all need a tidy shed at least 1 time in a season 🤣 Dont open up the net shed!!
Your plot is beautiful.
Oh now those Hessayon books - I gradually built up the whole collection from charity shops - I think I must have read them all cover to cover and back again! I probably still would if it wasn't for Google! Great video Jessie - thank you.
Hi Jess, the Neckargold white bean is a very recommented and loved type in germany, a lot of people grow it here in there allotments and home gardens (me, too), as well as the Blaue Hilde. They seem to be a general favourite, probably because they don´t turn stringy and taste loveley. Beside them, I will try something similar to you, a bean called Mosaik bean, up to 50 cm long (we will see) and colour from green, purple and sorts, a climber, but not flat. We will see the result later on, but I am exited. Thank you for your updates and work. S
I have cut out some squash because we havnt eaten them either and our trombocino were so big and taste lovely just like butternut so we like those the best. We growing a lot of courgettes tho as I make sauces with toms and onions and herbs for freezer to have with pasta and in soups aswell as eating them fresh and making other meals with them
I have my late father's 'Grow your own' books in two pleather binders they came out weekly and contain 52 or more books on every fruit and veg you could ever want to grow. So much useful information apart from Nuking the pests😂, they are dated 80/81. Jo Devon 🙂
Love your show live in Auckland New Zealand so we are at opposite times of year it's Autumn and still warm no hot house for me just plant outside 😊
We had hail last week too! What a spring. Hopefully I run across that film once it’s out! Looked like a good night out 🥂
The weather is all over the place Leanne! Its freezing again here today! And yeah, i hope you do find the film, its quite funny :D
Happy St George`s day :)
Loving the shidy Ted, are you growing any tromboncino up those arches?
Have you saved seeds from cosmos so easy to do and they grow easily.
Can you put an auto vent in the roof window Jess, I.d be lost without mine! 😕 😊
Hi Jessie, I’ve recently rediscovered the joys of gardening, I’ve always had potatoes, runner beans, tomatoes and cucumbers, but not very much else, my neighbour told me she was getting a new greenhouse, which inspired me to replace my tired old one which I bought secondhand 30 years ago for £50! It’s now been in place for 3 weeks, but already I’ve planted purple sprouting, carrots, spring onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, chillis, pak Choi, lettuce mostly in containers and lots of flower seeds .Thanks to you, JB, Ivan, and others you’ve inspired me to try something a bit different, heritage tomatoes for instance and nine star, which I wasn’t aware of. I also have 3 chickens and a cat. Unfortunately the waiting list for allotments is about 6 years here on the Isle of Wight, so I’ll concentrate on the garden. Thanks for your blogs of which I’ve got lots to catch up with.
Time team as u keep mentioning is still going only it now has a new presenter, but some of the original cast still on. Timeteam official on UA-cam. Funded by patreaons. And currently filming its as good if not better, all the tech has improved.
Keep up the good informative vlogs tho I'm hooked an look forward to my weekly fix
Hi love ur videos I noticed wen u earth ur potatoes u didn't cover the leaves do u leave the leaves open ? thanks xx
The shed looks fab. 1 1/2 hours? I keep looking at ours and think it will take 2 days...my partner cannot put anything back in it's home. Maybe I am just making it harder than it is so I do not tackle it.
The wheel barrow needs to squeak faster.
Yikes! Your neighbor's plot. Are there minimal standards one has to agree to in taking on a plot? Looks like it is time to pass that plot onto someone eager to garden and do the hard work.
I am surprised u tube don’t pull you on health and safety 😂😂….you need a degree and certificate now to use stepladders at work… health and safety gone mad 😂😂
Fantastisch Good work jessie you the best te moostuin te looking planting Top patatos te bloems 👍🌤🧤🥤🦺🥔🥦🌻🏵🌸🌱🌿
You must strategically place that trophy in the next Pottymouth video. The reactions should be interesting 🙂
Every Tuesday is Plot 37 day!!
I love the relationship with MOM!!!❤
I need a Shidy Ted in my life. Instead I've got a Muddy Bless😂
Thank god you moved the legs of that 1st arch towards the path, was really troubling me, haha.
Here in central NY we are having a cool April, too. Much cooler than March, which is very weird here. I have 4 weeks until last frost - tonight it could dip to 20F and that means running out and throwing sheets over everything 🤪
I love to watch your videos and especially like to see what you cook. Would it be possible to add any cooking you do to the description as I can never find the video again when I'm looking for it! 😊
Loved seeing you two gaving lunch in the sparkling clean greenhouse❤❤❤
JESSIE, you mentioned cake when you picked the rhubarb. Have you a recipe please
Hi Jess - thank you for your lovely gardening videos. You have such a nice well-organised allotment, and now you have a Shidy Ted too!
I have ordered some nine star seeds - perennial broccoli - it's so exciting - I didn't know there was such a thing until now.
Happy growings 😊👍
Will be planting out my first lot of garlic for the season tomorrow (Australia), at least 72 cloves, and same amount next month, so no garlic fears here. I’m pretty sure back in ‘85 garlic was a staple here. Probably the influence of all the Italian migrants from the 50’s & 60’s, and thank goodness they introduced us to their food culture otherwise we’d still be eating the English diet of meat and three boiled veg, no offence. (The cuisine of my childhood because my mum was from UK)
Hiya…I’d recommend Sunshine yellow bean, it’s from the same breeder as the Cobra. I’ve tried purple ones but I get infuriated that they turn green when cooked, unless you can suggest another one? I’m really tempted to buy some nine star? I’ve just bought some Rapini to try 🎉 love seeing your unusual veg. As much as I love parsnips/turnips/cabbage etc, it’s just me and hubby & we don’t eat load of those food types…if that makes sense. Asian greens, chard etc etc
9 star seed is difficult to find here in the US but I managed to find some 3-4 years ago. I haven't managed to get it to survive to maturity yet. IDK if the source was weak or it just had difficulty with the harsh conditions I have to grow in. I have several other perennial brassicas I'm trying to establish as well, but it's a constant battle with APHIDS and cabbage butterflies here too. We are starting to see more variety in these plants (particularly tree collards/kales) and I acquired a Taunton Dean last year that is still alive (barely) from perhaps the only source in the US. I'm hoping more of these perennials start to become more popular here in the future. Likewise, with onions and chards. Love not having to plant every year over and over.
We have done 49 buckets of potatoes in the hope of each bucket giving a weeks worth as in 2022. I didnt feed them last year so had poor results.
You got your Christmas sprouts in yet Jessie? I am trying out some red ones...😅
That caution over garlic passage in your book made me laugh. It reminds me of the difference I've noticed between Italian cookery and Chinese cookery. I've seen Italian chefs rubbing plates with garlic or throwing a bashed clove in olive oil, warming it a while then discarding it just so the oil had a hint of garlic - very restrained with the garlic. I've also heard Italian chefs insist on removing the green garlic germ as they say it tastes bitter - something I've never noticed myself. Contrast that between Chinese cookery where they use 3 or 4 roughly chopped pieces of garlic and it all gets flash fried in a wok and stays in. Maybe the restraint doesn't apply to all Italian chefs though. Not sure. I'm definitely in the lots of garlic camp myself.
Btw... I've got loads of broad beans growing. My first time growing them and they are nearly 3 foot tall and covered in flowers. I am looking forward to trying your broad bean on toast recipe in a few weeks - with a decent amount of garlic. Have been looking forward to trying that dish for ages.
Nice job on your Asparagus.I have some I planted last year from seed .Will be starting my growing next week .it's to cool.
39:56 I haven't tried them yet but I was recommended the yellow french bean variety 'Sunshine' by a UA-camr called Flora Garvey. I'm going to be growing some this year along side Cobra beans which I agree taste fantastic - even when large - and are super productive too. I'm pretty excited to have steaming bowls of green and yellow french beans on the table in the summer.
How long can you keep own grown veg frozen for ?
They say spring is here, where it still feels like winter, that windchill is making feel freezing up here.
Can’t you take cuttings of mine star broccoli like you do with Taunton Dene kale ?
Lovely video - thanks for keeping it real!
I'm on the hunt for 9 star broccoli or something similar in the Midwest 🤞🙏
I have just discovered your channel today after a friend recommended it to me. I have watched quite a few of your videos, on one you mentioned making a rhubarb cake, there doesn't appear to be a recipe for it in your recipe section. Can you tell me where I can get the recipe as it sounds yummy? I have subscribed and look forward to your future videos.
I've got a load of Taunton dene kale if you'd like some cuttings sent down. Do you have a P.O box or anything? I'm sure you avoid giving your address out to randoms on the internet. I'm not a weirdo though haha.
Are you not growing small climbing squash or pumpkins over one of the arches Jess ?
Can you show us your chillies peppers cucumbers aubergines melons and toms please.
I loved the curly asparagus: looked kind of tree-ferny.
I’ve just been to an allotment viewing, in suspense now to see which plot I get allocated 😊
Do you buy much veg Jessie? Or do you grow enough for your family needs
Something has bitten the tops of our asparagus as it’s emerging not had that happen b4😫
i love a good clean out of my greenhouse and finding something i lost
could have ask to be able to weed wack nest to your lot
❤oh, that film looks fabulous 😅
