He followed you read your books for the first year he spend planning making 5x8 beds hand making a shed, buying, two greenhouses, 3 compost bins that he made. Multiple sewing he now as beautiful home make compost, beautiful vegetables summer and winter. It looks amazing, and now he is giving advice to me who has the allotment next to him and he bought me your book and advised me and anyone else to follow you. No dig....
Mr Dowding, ill like to mention that your videos are great, and the way you talk and smile gives me peace, you must have a great soul. Congrats and greetings from Argentina. Cherrs!
if i ever visit Britain, i would definitely pay you a visit , maybe one of your courses, i talk to every one of my friends about your garden and your methots, and i looking foward to get your books. please continue what you are doing! . you are one of those people that makes a better place of this crazy world. God bles you! excuse my english please . cherrs!
I am a civil engineer, but I really love organic agriculture . I enjoyed your videos, especially this one . These videos motivated me to quit my job this month and I going to start my passion! Your videos are very helpful to me. Thanks so much, Mr. Dowding!
I decided to try grow a few bits and pieces this year with my grandson. I have very little or next to no knowledge whatsoever on gardening but within watching 2 episodes on you’re Chanel I have learnt more than I have trolling my way through dozens of other videos !! You sir are an absolute world of information that the far less knowledgeable can understand !! Absolutely brilliant programmes. 👍🏼
Thanks so much for letting me know. I just explain as best I can, and it's a long time since I was a beginner, so it's lovely to hear that the videos help so much.
I was recently a master gardener showplace. ( I was the best)! Lol. I gave your name out all day long. (Two day event) you are the best source for a home owner or small market farmer in my book! All the best from across the pond Charles. Spread the word subscribers!
Truly excellent! Invaluable knowledge, clearly and methodically communicated, expertly and beautifully shot. Really helping this novice grower discover the benefits and joy of no dig. Thank you!
Боже, благодарю за этого человека,он делает на своем участке просто райский уголок! На это просто даже приятно смотреть:)) Благодарю Вас, ваши видео очень вдохновляют, и хоть у меня пока лишь свой маленький огородик на подоконнике в квартире, но однажды у меня появится свой полноценный сад и огород на своей земле! Жить на Природе - это поистине благо, но и труд (!), который очень хорошо вознаграждается, если делать все по правилам и с любовью! Привет из России! Больших успехов Вам! Благодарю за то, что делитесь своим опытом!
Grabbed some beer (it is expensive in this country) and watching some Charles Dowding videos. Life is good, and you have a dream-like beautiful garden.
Thank you so much Charles and Steph for taking the time to share your endless knowledge. Videos like these are a gift to us all and I'll be watching them for many years to come!
It's just something about your videos that puts me at peace between your property, you're speaking and your passion for gardening just like me. Thank you so much for sharing! Again lol
YUM! I'd like early potatoes fried with spring onions and bacon. I've seen you harvest everything but the bacon. Just think if everyone in the whole world had a little no dig plot to feed their loved ones. That would be amazing! Charles & co. is changing the world one No Dig garden at a time.
What high quality videos! Excellent sound, camera angles, lighting, calm vibe and well editing. Such a pleasure to learn and watch! Thank you for all your hard work!
Incredible garden! Love your idea of having plants ready to go in empty spaces, and intersowing carrots between the lettuce. Your garden looks so clean, and productive. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge!
What you're creating there is just amazing, and the joy you have doing it just shines on your face. Thank you for another great video! It's almost like having an experienced teacher helping me along as I bumble my way through my second year of gardening, and you've helped me both avoid many mistakes, or confirmed some instincts I had were right.
@@CharlesDowding1nodig you do an amazing job there is alot to pick up from you to learn more about Gardening from 🇨🇦 #YSW good Saturday afternoon to you Domenico Monteleone bye 👋 from #YSW
homesteader fifty w/ ricky & martha considering the worlwide economic crisis, in a year i would probably have to rely on a garden to feed myself indeed :D
Mr. Charles, WOW 😲 your videos of your garden is the Best I have ever seen in my life or any of these gardening videos .. I’m hooked and thanks for all your gardening trick crops and challenges. Bless your Heart ❤️ all the way from Canada 🇨🇦
Yes; I'm starting to get it also. Here, it gets hot very fast, and I have had huge problems trying to get food before the thing runs to flower. For example, it's the beginning of March here, and my Mizuna, winter radish, rocket, fennel and more are flowering. The answer (for me) appears to be to plant most biennials after midsummer and to just not try to grow them as a spring crop. Problem there of course is that the summer is insanely hot here, which is why I generally waited for early winter to sow cool weather crops. So I have some tinkering about to do, but trying to get these things into the ground so that they do their storing up for the next flowering season thing done before midwinter seems to be the way to go here. E.g., got some nice turnips harvested in mid-Jan. On the plus side, my chillis are overwintering outside (and producing fruit now) and my kale is a perennial crop. So - key point is that you need to note when your veg typically start bolting, and aim to have your plants ready to harvest before that time. Once you know this, you can start to plan your replanting schemes.
Dear Charles, I have been following you since the beginning of your videos, what amazing achlevements! Forever gratefull, for every precious advice. ( this one is my favorite). Regards, Lucie
Another 36 minutes of awesomeness! I’ve just taken on my very first allotment and your videos are my source of inspiration, particularly with regards to succession planting, which I find quite challenging. Thank you so much Charles!
I planted out my leeks this year in multisown clumps à la Dowding! As they go in, I tell them to enjoy “growing with their mates”. I am glad to hear even Charles Dowding has the problem of too many plants of one kind or another. I cannot bear to throw them out and try to find homes for them. I call it puppies and kitten syndrome. Thanks for all the great teachings, and just the joy of visiting the thriving gardens.
I’m pleased that in the beginning of this video you spoke of the insects and their reason for being in the garden. We’ve been taught to think of them as pests that damage crops therefore we need to get rid of them. Everything has a purpose in nature and we don’t know what they are sometimes. When we don’t know things we make assumptions and decide that they’re not worth living. It’s the same premise as when flies start hovering around something that’s decaying. They’re present before we notice them and it’s due to a deficiency or the demise of something. They aren’t there to just eat our crops. The different insects, when we take time to understand them, are there because they have sensed a deficiency that we aren’t yet aware of.
How have I not seen your videos before... Australia has very different weather, but your enthusiast, don't fuss too much and give it a go attitude is so infectious how can I go wrong. Thank you for sharing and I can't wait to buy all your books.
These older videos contain so much useful and pertinent information. We're coming into Spring right now so they're timely reminders of what can be. Thanks Charles!
You are such an inspiration, Charles. Amazing! Thank you for sharing your knowledge, your love for gardening in this way, and just the beauty of your garden and your vegetables. It is a joy to watch :)
What a beautiful thing to watch on a cold wet February day...the British Summer in action. Can't wait, you have given me so many ideas for this year Charles, thanks.
Always a big fan of the obvious effort and thought put into the cinematography in your videos, Charles! Another great video, packed full of info :) Thank you.
Your knowledge bank is amazing every time I watch one of your videos I learn something. coming from a guy who doesn't have a gardening mentor, your it. thank you so much.
I've watched several of these videos and admired that wooden tool for making holes. So much that I paused this video midway and googled what it is called, searching for where to buy or how to make one but never finding one that length. So I concluded that I could probably make one from a replacement or broken shovel handle. I spent about 15 minutes on this tangent only to come back and unpause the video to hear "I use this dibber, a long handled dibber like this, just a spade handle rounded off at the end..."
All I can say Charles is “ Just Amazing “ a fantastic video of what can be achieved once one harvest is complete how immediately you have young plants to fill the vacant site! So organised ! Love your channel!👍
Me too!!! None one comes close, not even Gardeners World! I am in the US. We are not the Gardner’s the British are, but I’m learning! Thanks a to Mr Dowding . :)
Hello Mr. Dowding Thank you much for sharing your amazing knowledge I thoroughly enjoy your gardening video's. Best wishes from the US. GOD bless you and your family! :)
Hola señor Charles!! Es usted una bendición para todas las personas que como yo amamos los huertos en nuestras casas, gracias por compartimos todo su conocimiento, felicitaciones!!!!
Thank you. This video made my day. I'll be watching it many times over. Superb production quality and information. Your work is filled with joy. I'd recommend your books and advice to anyone.
Always looking so beautiful your garden. Down in the Gers, raining everyday, hail also, some ot the crop has been damaged but is recovering. Had to harvest potatoes as the plants were too damaged, what a pleasure to just pull them out of the ground. a good crop; we are now getting courgettes this week so not so bad. We'll send pictures
I have watched this video so many times! Especially at this time of year when my garden looks a bit messy and out of control the beauty of your garden is refreshing.
I must say this is a fantastic video the way you do the leeks i have been doing it all wrong for the last 40odd years i used to just drop them in the holes and fill the holes with water, your way makes way more sense by pushing in the soil around them and watering the bed before and after sowing them
Zone 8!! I wish! Here in southern Quebec (zone 4) I start everything indoors, in February and March, when there's still 3 feet of snow on my garden, and the earth is still frozen solid until April and sometimes May! I still do manage to get two, sometimes three harvests of brassicas. I've sometimes planted onion seedlings in the top three inches of unfrozen earth. I'm so envious of you being able to garden 12 months a year!
It would be very nice to live in his climate and have his expertise! I live in north central Alberta, zone 4ish and I'm always trying to push the season, this year because of covid19 ive had more time to get creative and plan on building some poly tunels over my raised beds, which have been defrosting this week at about 4 inches in some ares, I have started some potatoes, carrots, peas, brassica all in comfortable pots made with newspaper or egg cartons that I will plant without removing into my covered beds. We will see! My hope is by using paper I can grow things I would have direct sown if I lived in a warmer area and plant out without damaging roots. I've also selected fast growing varieties of cold hardy veg.
Brrrrr! Zone 4. But every zone has plusses and minuses. Zone 8 here, deep south Atlantic state. Many things we cannot grow in summer 80/90/100 degree temps for 3-5 months each year. Too hot for many berries, fruits, garlics, onions, even flowers like peonies suffer. No brassicas in hottest months. But we can grow SOMETHING usually for 10 months out of the year. Usually kales, etc., will overwinter if started earlier in fall.
You are so thorough in making a valuable and interesting channel for us who wants to learn. I love your calm energy and the way you present things. Updates are also so helpful!! THANK you.
Beautiful garden you have, forgot to mention that. I finally convinced mom to put woodchips in the garden, she didn't want to listen when we got them and was cool outside, now she did after the plants were diseased and stress. ...well at least we are building it for next year. Hopefully will get lots more to cover the entire back and front yard with woodchips. Very hopeful for next year garden.
Here in Michigan zone 5b my six beds are covered with a few inches of chopped leaves. I do start some plants indoors . Im tilling my soil yet. I do make compost .. weeds are a plague so do have tools from your videos to move towards no dig. Your dedication comes through.... thank you.
Watching for maybe the third time. Excellent videos. Bought some row cover for protection from the rabbits. 6 ft by 100 ft plenty for sure to start. Getting indoor grow room ready. Thank you for the great directions and your clarity!
Thank you for this beautiful video. Once again, you made the world a better place to live. My soul is resting when I watch and listen to you doing different stuff in your garden. The pace and rythm is so nice in these videos. And all the information you give - wow! :)

Yes!! Without a doubt!
My favorite as well!
I just said basically the same thing😊🍃🌾🌱 I love watching him so much!! He's so inspiring!
What an incredibly pleasant way to spend 36 and a half minutes. Thank you.

Võ Trường Good luck.
Võ Trường gosh big commitment and I wish you well, must say that it’s difficult to earn a living selling veg Oslo keep some other income
Thanks! I know that, so I will go to Hi-tech organic agriculture
There are several families in my area that make a good living gardening but it is hard, hot work.
Its been year ago. I love gardening too but not brave enough to quit my job. I depress to know how thing going with your plan now?

Wow, thank you for lovely feedback, glad you like my work and Edward's video skills
Knowing when to plant is the hardest part of growing. Your channel has helped solve the mystery. Thanks for the tips.
Thanks Becca and yes, timing can make all the difference
This is true for me also
Yes; I'm starting to get it also. Here, it gets hot very fast, and I have had huge problems trying to get food before the thing runs to flower.

Thanks for taking the time to share your garden and all the great information
Excellent information for all vegetable growers. Thank you.
I’m pleased that in the beginning of this video you spoke of the insects and their reason for being in the garden. We’ve been taught to think of them as pests that damage crops therefore we need to get rid of them. Everything has a purpose in nature and we don’t know what they are sometimes. When we don’t know things we make assumptions and decide that they’re not worth living. It’s the same premise as when flies start hovering around something that’s decaying.

Nice comment
My cabbage moths sensed a deficiency of caterpillers on my plants and fixed that in a jiffy!
How have I not seen your videos before... Australia has very different weather, but your enthusiast, don't fuss too much and give it a go attitude is so infectious how can I go wrong. Thank you for sharing and I can't wait to buy all your books.
Great and I wish you successful cropping
Your productions are getting slicker and slicker. Great stuff - must-see videos for all vegetable gardeners. Well done guys.
FlowerGrower Smith Edward will enjoy this comment. We have no budget and little time so yes, practice helped!
My guy is so wholesome and informative, great channel!
💚
I have sown the Boltardy beetroot 4-6 seeds in each clump this year and they turned out very great - lovely taste, easy to grow.
Heidi thanks for your feedback, nice result!
My dad was very worried about a good result - he is used to growing beetorot in singles, spaced far apart. He was just amazed by the result
WOW so beautiful .
Wish I had the discipline to get up this early. It’s the best part of the day 😃
Another great video! Thanks Charles.
These older videos contain so much useful and pertinent information. We're coming into Spring right now so they're timely reminders of what can be. Thanks Charles!
Great to hear! The information is timeless 😀
You are such an inspiration, Charles. Amazing! Thank you for sharing your knowledge, your love for gardening in this way, and just the beauty of your garden and your vegetables. It is a joy to watch :)
I am heartened to hear this Inger, thankyou
Great video! Especially struck by the gorgeous sound during the last sequence! The picking of the produce.
Ha nice thanks!
Well done, great video, great people, great work, everything looks fantastic!! :-)Good job, wish you all the best.
Lovely comment thanks
So nice seeing you enjoying your work while educating everyone 🥬🥒🥕
Love my 🐛! If I could eat off my greens all year I would be the happiest person on earth
What a beautiful thing to watch on a cold wet February day...the British Summer in action. Can't wait, you have given me so many ideas for this year Charles, thanks.
Happy to hear that Stuart
Your best video by far, great work Charles and Edward, excellent .
Fantastic video, full of good information and a lovely setting

Lovely basket of goodies at the close.
So much information in just one video. Thank you, Charles. Really enjoy your channel content. :)
Great, I was aiming for that, pack it in!
Your knowledge bank is amazing every time I watch one of your videos I learn something. coming from a guy who doesn't have a gardening mentor, your it. thank you so much.
Great to hear and thanks Andrew
Thanks so much Sir, we should be on the toes observing every plant. Thanks for the compost bin
Your videos make me think about a variety of details and ideas. Keep them coming !
Thanks so much Charles. I learn new things every video 😊
I really love ur garden Sir Charles very clean and healthy greens
I've watched several of these videos and admired that wooden tool for making holes. So much that I paused this video midway and googled what it is called, searching for where to buy or how to make one but never finding one that length. So I concluded that I could probably make one from a replacement or broken shovel handle. I spent about 15 minutes on this tangent only to come back and unpause the video to hear "I use this dibber, a long handled dibber like this, just a spade handle rounded off at the end..."
Well done Randi, nice to work things out!
Haha, well I was thinking if I had just watched the video a little longer I would have had the answer :)
Wonderful video! Thank you. Learning a lot from you.....you truly have a gift!
Nice of you to say, thanks
All I can say Charles is “ Just Amazing “ a fantastic video of what can be achieved once one harvest is complete how immediately you have young plants to fill the vacant site! So organised ! Love your channel!👍
Thankyou David
Well done Charles! Looks like another great season at Homeacres. I really enjoy your video tours of the Farm, very inspiring.

I must say this is a fantastic video the way you do the leeks i have been doing it all wrong for the last 40odd years i used to just drop them in the holes and fill the holes with water, your way makes way more sense by pushing in the soil around them and watering the bed before and after sowing them
Thanks Robert. I would not say the other way is wrong, more that this is easier and quicker.

Too hot for many berries, fruits, garlics, onions, even flowers like peonies suffer. No brassicas in hottest months. But we can grow SOMETHING usually for 10 months out of the year. Usually kales, etc., will overwinter if started earlier in fall.
You are so thorough in making a valuable and interesting channel for us who wants to learn. I love your calm energy and the way you present things. Updates are also so helpful!! THANK you.
You are so welcome, makes me happy to hear
Fantastic, love to hear the crispness. :)
Thanks Charles for the amazing video watching here from the Philippines.
Cheers Romeo so far away!
Beautiful garden you have, forgot to mention that. I finally convinced mom to put woodchips in the garden, she didn't want to listen when we got them and was cool outside, now she did after the plants were diseased and stress. ...well at least we are building it for next year. Hopefully will get lots more to cover the entire back and front yard with woodchips. Very hopeful for next year garden.
Here in Michigan zone 5b my six beds are covered with a few inches of chopped leaves. I do start some plants indoors . Im tilling my soil yet. I do make compost .. weeds are a plague so do have tools from your videos to move towards no dig. Your dedication comes through.... thank you.
Thanks for sharing Wayne, you are going in a good direction, soil life will be happy under those leaves.
@@CharlesDowding1nodig thank you very much .
Watching for maybe the third time. Excellent videos. Bought some row cover for protection from the rabbits. 6 ft by 100 ft plenty for sure to start. Getting indoor grow room ready. Thank you for the great directions and your clarity!
Fabulous..so beautiful and inspiring 😊
What a great video. A big thank you to you both.
Hi Charles and thanks for the quick response to my question.
