I love that you don't plan your videos! I love the feeling of autenticity that your videos give me. I sit at my desk at work and have you talking (and drinking) to me, and I long to get home and stick my fingers in the ground.
Well done Jessie and mum, freestyling is good , just have rough schedule, whenever plans are made something always scuppers them. Wrap up warm the cold weather is coming at the end of the week . Cheers
Another great video Jess loved your illustration on the growth of garlic and shallots I will try that method. Love the piano music you play in the background too. Carn't wait to see what you get up too next week🍷
Without wishing to be rude about your chickens, it fascinates me that birds with little brains have such widely differing and such distinct personalities.
For a sharpener recommended on Eli & Kate try a Sharpal 105 multipurpose pocket knife sharpener. See their blog how to use. I’ve done secateurs, shears scissors it’s amazing!!!
Love your fly by the seat of your pants style - so far I’ve been back for each vlog so I see no point in a content calendar. It is great that’s organic Hope the next sowing of the green manure goes better. I sowed in Sept. the field peas and oats did okay ( and still persevering under some fleece despite our chilly temps) but the buckwheat was in too late. No matter I’m sure it will bring some substance and nutrients to the soil Pub night was excellent and lovely you two won a bottle of wine 🥂 🥂
I absolutely cannot wait for Tuesday nights to watch what you’ve been up to all week… and you never fail to entertain. I love your vlog ❤️❤️ I’m having a gardening day tomorrow and I cannot wait 🤣 x x
Nice to see you having some fun with friends. We had our first snow last week but it has warmed up some and most of it has melted. Blessings from BC Canada 🇨🇦
Great video, I love the background music and the way you and your mum work together as well as how secure you are in your gardening skills, I find these videos very calming. Thankyou.
I've always wondered if you were playing your own piano backing? I could listen to a whole album of that! I've memorized them. I sleep to another album that is all piano from calm Music guru. Anyway now to watch the video! Have a great holiday Jess and Mum😊
I always leave the dead zinnias and sunflowers and marigolds alone all winter for the birds 🐦 then cut them down in Spring, cut them up and use for mulch.
Aww the girlies look really well. Barbara has started to moult so she’s looking a bit scraggy just now. How great to go pubbing lol great vid Jessie, have a good week xx
Hahaha, poor Barbara! They look so funny when moulting don't they. I feel so sorry for them and they genuinely seem embarrassed about the state of tings.... lol
Thanks heaps for video. Enjoyed the trip thur London. The pubs seem very small? But maybe was just one part. Guess not much room for expanding there. Not that I’ve been to a pub in years. Maybe to eat food in restaurant part in later years. You got heaps done, but guess easy tidy in autumn isn’t it. Feel good when it’s all tidy. Great job you and Mum. Wee cooking demo great gives us ideas. Thanks.
Thanks for adding in the cooking tip, love seeing what you make with your pickings. Love your enthusiasm it’s infectious, so off to the bottom of the garden today and my mini plot I now have 5 beds, started this summer after finding your blog. Loving pottering and picking my own veggies.
Another great video! Good to see you've recovered from your incident last week. Nice to hear a shout out to my favourite Scottish gardeners, Eli & Kate! I'll have dahlias in my garden next year and I cannot wait 💗
@@JessieatPlot37 I'm trying the Unwind Dwarf Mix from seed I got from Premier Seeds. They are my first ones, and hoping I can actually get something from them. I think I've challenged Steve (Green Side Up) to see who can reach 50 different flowers first next year! He has a head start on me! 😂 I want to grow more and more - it's like a drug! 💗
Hello love, Mum has a great smile today! The two of you work so well together. She is very blessed to have you as a companion friend and daughter. I love watching the two of you together. This was a fun video going to the pub and the quiz there. Tis is a new concept for me we do not have that here. You mentioned field beans. CAN YOU GIVE ME THE NAMES OF A FEW FIELD BEAN VARITIES? Blessings for you take care bye for now
Hello! No pub quizzing? thats a terrible thing...lol. Most pubs have a quiz night here. :D Also Field Beans are just field beans, no named varieties, they are a green manure crop.
For over 10 years I've done the same with my Dahlias and lost very few. I do put 3-4 inch of bark on them during the Winter though just incase. I also gather seeds and grow them in bins in my back garden to put in the front garden incase I lose any. Great videos and love watching them. Gives me a lot of ideas for my own garden. Thank you.
Thanks Tuffty. Yeah, i'll give these a good mulch once ive got the bulbs in underneath! I've never grown them from seed myself but i do have some bishop's children that a friend grew. I will have to have a go!
Hi Jess, love your Vlogs, you have got a lot of jobs done today, very good. Nice to see you are getting over your last Vlog after the damage to your shed & plants. The girlie's are gorgeous 😍 well done with all the work you have done. I have planted green manure this year. Take care 🙂
Well done on the pub quiz 🙂 I am envious of your beautiful Nerines, I have tried growing them in the ground (clay soil) and in pots but only get foliage and no flowers. Thanks for another great vlog Cheers Jessie 🍷🍷🍷
Thanks Sheila! I tell you what, those poor Nerines have been so badly treated. Keep being dug up and moved and then one year they just sat in the shed a paper bag. They seem to like how dry our soil is though. Cheers!
Great Vlog again Jess. I cut my dahlias down at the weekend. I never dig up and very rarely lose any. Your comment about how much compostable material is generated this time of year is true. I filled ones of my bays on Saturday, it is 4ft square and 5ft high. I will add kitchen scraps over winter and this will be next Autumns compost for the beds. Do you make leaf mould from all the leaves at the start of the video? I like you, love a pub quiz and get Uber competitive. Well done on winning.
Amazing isn't it. around this time every year i start fretting that i need another few compost bays! But it soon rots down to a more manageable size. Yeah, we've recently got into leaf mould. Made loads of it last year and so having another go nthis time.
I love this time of year, almost as much as late spring. Tidying up the tender plants and being followed around the garden by the resident robin where it gets fed any grubs or slugs I find. My still to do list is prune the fruit trees, roses, put up the Christmas lights and make the wreath and possibly a garland. Something I seen done is growing things at a diagonal, it’s meant to be better for space, I’m going to try it next year.
I love everything about your vlog. I have an allotment for a few years so still learning. i absolutely love it, and the friends i have made and the drinks around one of the allotments for a few hours on a friday night. Perfect.
Thanks Helen! All of the echalion shallots grow like that. I'm not sure of the variety either because they came from a friend and i wasn't listening closely enough!
Oh Big Eggo! :( I'm sorry Ged! Yeah, the avian flu is such a problem this year. the only thing i can say is luckily our girls don't know what they are missing out on yet!
Must be something in the air last week the day after watching youre video my allotment and 14 more on our site were broken in,it’s a problem with a allotments which is hard to solve ,luckily my new outbacker woodburner/stove is still in back of my van
:( i'm sorry to hear that! Oddly we were the only shed attacked last week so i'm not sure what that was all about. Normally like you say, its a whole load!
Brill vlog jessie! I dont have a youtube plan/shedule either lol I just film whatever takes my fancy. Im going to have to watch your green manures video. Having only just got a large plot im going to need all the help i can find! Happy growing! hope you have a ranging success with the elephant garlic, grown it two years running and it was fab! If you get tiny bulbettes plant them the next year and they will grow through to a huge clove! :) Jen x
Thanks Jen! Yeah, i do think it all might get very boring if we knew what we had to do each week! Exciting to hear about your elephant garlic success... at least its possible and not a myth. :D
Thanks for the mustard greens stir fry. I must try that! Meant to ask you what climate zone you are in. And what language you were speaking on the finish. That was great! You're so talented!
@@JessieatPlot37 Charles D says he thinks he's in zone 8A, but calls it "coastal temperate" or something similar. I'm in 8B and your weather reminds me of the NW where I am. Very similar, ....right down to the slugs!
Morning ladies hope your doing well. Everything looks fantastic and you’ve both been super busy. I tried “hairy vetch” last year and noticed no difference, but then we mushroom manure every winter to regenerate the beds. 😂 does mom lose her keys at least once a month and you just wander off and leave her. Thank you for sharing as always 🇨🇦🥰🐝 safe
Hello Ali! Seeds round two arrived this morning!! Thank you so much. Yeah, the keys and mum have a difficult relationship... i've learned to just step away. :D
Thanks Pauline! And yeah, allotments can have their downsides and sometimes i really wish i could grow on my own land but they most certainly have their advantages too! Wine and friends among them!
Hi Jesse , a couple of questions on dahlias, do you cover hollow stems with mulch to keep stems dry and I find clumps of tubers get very large if not lifted and split every couple of years , cheers
Don't know how I missed this one Jessie. I popped in because you mentioned asparagus and I just.....en d Feb, got a delivery of what looks like straw buried in pots of soil. Is it now time for it to go in its permanent bed or get babie d in pots indoors?
Lovely video Jessie, do you eat your field bean shoots? Steve crops them all through the winter on Steve's Seaside Allotment UA-cam channel. I have leeks and brassicas growing and not more than 3 square metres of empty ground, I tend to plant broad beans as I have too much seed in a packet. Direct sowing has always failed for me, I think rodents eat the nice big seeds. I never got phacelia to germinate, even with fresh seed. I just mulch the beds, I find it more dependable. Do you sow green manure between your brassicas and leeks? Do you have any remedy for white blister on brassicas, my kale leaves look so awful that I don't fancy eating them🥴. I've picked most of the leaves off my brussel sprouts, kale and PSB. Only the PSB looks like it will give a decent harvest! Can I live on chard, parsnips and leeks this winter?🤔😉
I do Gwen! I've had them in salads and been completely unimpressed by them but i've started using them like spinach and they are fab! Field bean tops Risotto is wonderful! Actually white blister is one of the few things i've not had (fingers crossed it stays that way!) so i have no help i'm afraid! And yeah... parsnips, leeks and chard sounds okay to me! :D
Really enjoyed this video...I had a great time!! What program do you use? I like the way you've included live illustration 👍. Cheers 🍻 from the slowly freezing White North! ❄️⛄

ahhhh...... my little fix in among the insanity this a relaxing place to be.
Thanks for the cook up and the trip to the pub. Cheers from NZ.
Thank you, Cheers!
@@JessieatPlot37 Did I mention the gardening? that too, thanks it's always interesting
Cheers Jess! Thanks & please keep the vlogs random , unplanned and as full of "right now" as they are. Love'em!
I love that you don't plan your videos! I love the feeling of autenticity that your videos give me. I sit at my desk at work and have you talking (and drinking) to me, and I long to get home and stick my fingers in the ground.
Thanks Malin! :D
Wow 24c??? My greenhouse is at 9c!!!!!!
You know I'm fangirling out now that you've shouted me out in a video again. I feel like royalty now 😀😂😀🤣
Hahaha, i don't think it'll be that warm up there today! Its absolutely arctic here today.
Lovely blog Jessie. I just love your excited greeting for the chickens each time you visit the plot. Well done on the pub quiz triumph..
hahaha, thank you!
Well done Jessie and mum, freestyling is good , just have rough schedule, whenever plans are made something always scuppers them. Wrap up warm the cold weather is coming at the end of the week . Cheers
The cold weather is properly here now Angela! I'm in front of the fire!
Another lovely vlog , I look forwards to tuesdays now in the same way i did as a child waiting for Tiswas on a Saturday morning 😆. Cheers Jessie
Hahahahah, thanks Carl! Cheer!
Cheers!*
With all the compost added every year , your plot's soil will continually improve, great work 👍
Love the 'checkerboard ' method with the shallots . Inspiring me once again ❤
Another great video Jess loved your illustration on the growth of garlic and shallots I will try that method. Love the piano music you play in the background too. Carn't wait to see what you get up too next week🍷
Thanks Rachel!
I read london is getting snow on Saturday, best get the hot water bottles ready for the chooks.
Oh i hope so Sean! Its certainly cold enough! I'm currently bundled up in front of the fire.
It's great seeing your mum so involved. My mom passed 14 years ago but it would've been great if she had gardened with me
Had to show hubby how beautiful your girlies are
Without wishing to be rude about your chickens, it fascinates me that birds with little brains have such widely differing and such distinct personalities.
Hahaha, birds are very clever. Look at the Crows!
Thanks for sharing the city views.
I love that stretch of train line across camden, its such a great sight!
For a sharpener recommended on Eli & Kate try a Sharpal 105 multipurpose pocket knife sharpener. See their blog how to use. I’ve done secateurs, shears scissors it’s amazing!!!
Cheers Jessie.
Cheers Andrew!
🤤Love your pasta recipes, makes me wish I was your neighbor😄
Good job as always🌱🥂
Hahahaha, thanks Jorge!
I’m watching you as the snow falls heavily outside my window. So sad! Hungry Hungry Hippo😁 😁. My kids loved that game.
Oh i'm so hoping for snow here this year Jaynee!
Love your fly by the seat of your pants style - so far I’ve been back for each vlog so I see no point in a content calendar. It is great that’s organic
Hope the next sowing of the green manure goes better. I sowed in Sept. the field peas and oats did okay ( and still persevering under some fleece despite our chilly temps) but the buckwheat was in too late. No matter I’m sure it will bring some substance and nutrients to the soil
Pub night was excellent and lovely you two won a bottle of wine 🥂 🥂
Hahahah, thanks Leanne! Yeah, i bit hit and miss with the green manure this year! Cheers!
Words to live by! Don't plan. You'll be happiest without a content calendar, because you'll always film what you decide on the spot. 100% success! Lol
I totally agree! It would get very boring if what you had to do each week was preordained by some list! :D
ldich lddich ich habe die Datei mit dem Namen der Datei 😅hochgeladen habe ein paar Zeilen
Who needs a content calendar hey! Bit worried about seeing an unfinished glass of wine though 🤔
I know, i don't know what came over me!
I absolutely cannot wait for Tuesday nights to watch what you’ve been up to all week… and you never fail to entertain. I love your vlog ❤️❤️
I’m having a gardening day tomorrow and I cannot wait 🤣 x x
Jesse is such a joy and clever to boot ❤
Thanks Nicola! :D Hope the gardening days was fantastic!
I love the “Baltic” language at the end of the blog😀
hahaha!
🐓 Love seeing the chickens and 😍 at them not minding a bit of a stroke too!
They are very tolerant of my adoration Tufty!
Just sorted my Dahlias out too I will definitely be growing them next year. Very busy time of year.
Yeah, it really is such a busy time of year!
Nice to see you having some fun with friends. We had our first snow last week but it has warmed up some and most of it has melted. Blessings from BC Canada 🇨🇦
Thanks Bev! We are supposed to get some snow today but i'm so excited that it probably wont end up happening...lol
So pleased I got to see the video.....jus lovely!!
Great video, I love the background music and the way you and your mum work together as well as how secure you are in your gardening skills, I find these videos very calming. Thankyou.
Thanks Izzy!
A crazy amount of free leaf mulch..
Its that time of year!
I've always wondered if you were playing your own piano backing? I could listen to a whole album of that! I've memorized them. I sleep to another album that is all piano from calm Music guru. Anyway now to watch the video! Have a great holiday Jess and Mum😊
No, its not me playing the piano! :D
Lovely to see my 2 favourite girls smiling despite previous setbacks
:D thanks Alec!
Cheers Jessie great vlog.
Thanks Jane!
I always leave the dead zinnias and sunflowers and marigolds alone all winter for the birds 🐦 then cut them down in Spring, cut them up and use for mulch.
Not a single seed head was left on mine! So not much good to the birds, they must have already raided them. And i needed the space. :D
Aww the girlies look really well. Barbara has started to moult so she’s looking a bit scraggy just now.
How great to go pubbing lol great vid Jessie, have a good week xx
Hahaha, poor Barbara! They look so funny when moulting don't they. I feel so sorry for them and they genuinely seem embarrassed about the state of tings.... lol

I must be a hard-core fan Jess,I just watched a whole 5 minute long advert without skipping lol 😁
I do the same!
You’re blue peter badge is in the post 😃😑
Dean Smith Pay UA-cam £12 a month for premium and you'll never have to see another advert. Money well spent.
I'm very addicted ❤
Haha, same here. I love her, plus she never ask people to donate or buy het a kofi, etc. She deserves every penny. 💕🌻
Thank you for showing the front fence of you’ll plot.
Loved the video! I really need to get sorted for green manure but maybe next year now. Loved your Quiz night!
Thanks Lin. Yeah, definitely have a go with the green manure next year!
Thanks for adding in the cooking tip, love seeing what you make with your pickings. Love your enthusiasm it’s infectious, so off to the bottom of the garden today and my mini plot I now have 5 beds, started this summer after finding your blog. Loving pottering and picking my own veggies.

I love watching you’ll garden, it makes me want to get out to garden.
:D the best compliment!

Thanks Pauline! theres are so many advantages to allotments and the people who you meet is definitely a major one!
Good to see you enjoying life Jesse ❤ cheers 🍻 and have a pleasant Thanksgiving!
Thanks Tamara. I do love gardening with her!
I remember the nurseries Jessie Petersham nurseries
I so enjoyed this video,not sure what variety your bunching shallots are. Enjoyed my trip to the pub !😉👍✅
Thanks Helen! All of the echalion shallots grow like that. I'm not sure of the variety either because they came from a friend and i wasn't listening closely enough!
what a lovely video that was well done jessie

Hi Jesse , a couple of questions on dahlias, do you cover hollow stems with mulch to keep stems dry and I find clumps of tubers get very large if not lifted and split every couple of years , cheers
I will mulch them yeah, after i've got the bulbs in. And yeah, i'll definitely split these as they get bigger but this lot only went in last year.
Is Roo chicken a hen? Looked more like a cockerel compared to the other two girlies. The head shape and comb are different.
She's a hen. Our previous white one also had a larger cone than the darker ones too.

Yes, but they've stopped laying for the winter!
had absolutely no luck getting shallots this year
I was lucky, a friend picked these up when she was up in yorkshire because i couldn't find any either!
🍀❤🌷❤🍀
When are you going to let your hens out to free range?
Julie they can't run free at the moment because of Avian Flu, on lock down like Covid,
Yeah, they wont be out until the lockdown is over!
👍😀👍❤
Roob looks like a boy!
Hahaha, i wont tell her you said that!
USA sc
Use bacon and then throwin greens (that's the way I do my chard too)
Yeah, i do a lot of that!

Hahaha, fair.
