Love that Gem! Great to see your little helper giving you a hand. We find the nasturtiums a bit to peppery for us but have been pickling the seeds to make poor mans capers. Have you tried regrowing spring onions on the windowsill? I normally put a bit of water in the bottom and change it every few days. I cut them down to about an inch when i am using it and pop them in a shot glass to grow again. I do that with leeks too. Feeling a bit bummed that we had to take down our tomatoes today because of blight! About 8kg to ripen, so they have been boxed up in 3 boxes with bananas, newspaper, etc Still have the tomato plants out front to do but they don't seem as bad. It just feels so wrong to be doing it this early already. Picked our kuri squash today and dug up the last two sweet peppers to overwinter. Not all too bad as the manure and compost arrives next week but might have to buy some cabbage and broccoli starts as we have had poor germination. We only have 3 tundra and one savoy that is of size atm. The rest are tiny. Getting some germination on sugar snaps now. 3rd time lucky but it kind of sums up this year really doesn't it. What is looking good atm? I think these mystery potatoes we got from Tesco. Tons of foliage, so hopefully that means party downstairs too! Hehe Is that a new sign or am i just not that observant/ forgetful? Anyway, hopefully we don't get that storm too much before the temps dip. Take care and have a lovely week! x

Love this! A plot to plate style video is always so useful and gives everyone inspiration and ideas! 😊🪴💚

Hi Gemma! We have alliums, salsify, carrots, peas, parsleys (curly, flat leaf, parsley root), chervil, strawberries, rhubarb, nasturtium, clancy potatoes are all still doing well after growing all Spring & Summer, but we are near our 1st frost date here in Michigan so some of them will be killed off soon if the usual pattern holds. It's been a gorgeous colorful cool Autumn here as per usual. Surprisingly my strike green beans & winged bean plants are still doing well, other green bean varieties died when Summer ended, & my asparagus pea plants never flowered this year for some reason, they'll fizzling out now. Our tomato & pepper plants are limping along, & I would have yanked them all out if not for them being loaded with fruit. I want to give as much time as possible to develop big peppers & tomatoes, that worked out well last October. I'd sown a lot of turnip & mustard greens for a late fall harvest, but the wretched tree rats have been running amok burying nuts in my beds so they ruined all the seedlings not long after they germinated. Voluntary dill & amaranth is popping up all over the place, but likely won't get to a big size in time. I do still have various bok choy, lettuce, spinach varieties on the grow table, & although one of the chipmunks has found a way to get up on the table, the damage so far is minimal.

Hi Gemma, hope you and Vince are doing well :D

great finding at the allotment

Oh sweetheart you don't need a dehydrator you can just use your oven on very low. Same method and one that's at hand in everyone's homes

Loved this gem! A different style of videography too. Lush seeing W sorting the beans out. I bet he made more mess though 😂😂😂 lovely video. Danny 🌱

Question Of The Day.... What is looking good in your garden/allotment at the moment? Thank You for watching, if you enjoyed this video please hit like 👍 Have a great week all! ❤

This has poked me to do my strawberries (well, to at least add that to the list 😂!). Thank you Gemma.

I've just got my allotment after 11 months and I'm starting from scratch. I used this same method and it worked wonders for my herbal medicine 👌

Really enjoyed your helpful video! I planted two cider apple trees in my garden two years ago so hopefully in a few more years I'll be making cider too. Very satisfying I reckon!

what happened to summer gem!!!! It was a blink in the eye! The plot is looking good though. Danny xx

Gemma with all those Strawberrys id say a talented Lady like you is going to make some lovely Jam

Fab update Gem ❤ Great to still be harvesting tomatoes still isn't it 🍅. So many strawberry plants and it's great you took some home, the children will love picking those to eat when they ripen. So nice seeing you at Malvern yesterday ❤ x

🍓 how many 😮 that raised bed is going to be amazing

Hi Gemma! This was lovely to watch 😊 tomatoes are looking great and looks like you will get lots more off them before they are finished. Love the little strawberry runners that have made their way into the path. Looking forward to seeing how they develop next season. Great to meet at Malvern today and thank you for being so lovely with my little boy 🥰 have a brilliant week ahead! 😊🪴💚

All looking great Gemma very cold here too

berry nice🥰🍓

Olá amiga, excelente vídeo obrigada por compartilhar ❤❤❤

I see lots of strawberry jam in the future🥰🥰. Well done!

It looks lovely, no such thing as too much strawberry, for either garden or belly. That chilly wind is here in Oslo too. Had to put long underwear on.

the allotment is looking amazing Gem

It’s been soooo cold the past fee days. 4°c last night in the polytunnel. Brrrr Plot is productive and you will be enjoying lots of strawberries next year too. 😍

Everything looks productive f xx🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓

Great job, Gemma. I grow some strawberry plants in hanging baskets and hang them in my greenhouse i early February, to get an early harvest. they need to be left outside in the cold untill then, otherwise , if kept warm, they won't fruit. happy gardening 🙂

Awesome video buddy :D

You will be having strawberries for days next year Gemma! Love the dragonfly in the polytunnel. Hope you have had a great week? Was worried about it getting to 3c last night and not covering anything but it was ok. Going to be digging up the other two California wonder peppers to overwinter. I am just making sure the one i dug up was ok after potting up since it had stopped producing loads. Slowly getting the cooler crops out but will plant out cabbages and broccoli when the tomatoes come out. Hope you have a fabulous week. Take care.

Loved this Gemma - you’ve inspired us to have a go!

Hi Gemma hope you’re doing well. You do you & whatever suits your home life, we’re here for the enjoyment 😊 Personally I like a mix of long & short videos, awkward I know. I like grow a longs/how too vlogs along with variety of seeds

It's good to see outside of the allotment as a new gardener and just had a greenhouse built so be nice to see at home etc to give us newbies ideas whom don't have an allotment thanks x

Productive couple of days there Gemma , well done! 😁💪🏼💚🌱Will

I love anything garden related!!

Enjoy the shorter life snippets too! Managed to binge your last 4 or so videos tonight and very much enjoyed 😊

SO MANY 🍅🍅🍅 tomato goals 😃

Catching up on your videos - great progress! I did see the sneak preview of your beds in one of your other thumbnails and loving the colour of beds that you chose! 😃

Different videos. 😊

Gemma always Love watching you in Garden I Like the one vlog

I like the way you are doing it with the shorter videos.

Whatever works for you as I enjoy watching the progress on your allotment and your new garden plot. Love the tips on what to do with the produce too.

Very envious of the Good mother stallard beans, they are just so pretty. I tried so hard to get a crop but only one plant remains. Honestly I'm happy to watch long or short video's, just do what works best with your daily life.

Keep doing what you are doing Gemma I like both. Love seeing the jobs to do. Lovely tomatoes

Wow…that was such a good pruning. I was stunned how different it looked. Went from a jungle to super organised. 35 tomato plants. Wow! Amazing. You’ve gotten some fabulous harvests. I think and gardening related content is relatable to the channel and us viewers. I know you have Vince help you with the editing, so whatever video type works best for you.

Great work Gemma and Vince. Those beds seem a lovely size. So much growing space. Looks a great layout on the garden. It’ll be a lovely space to sit with a morning cuppa. What are you planning on growing at home?

I love the mixture of your videos related to your garden and what you do with your harvests, like freezing your tomatoes and making cider with your apples. As you are busy and as others might be you might want to do videos that are around 15 minutes in length. Hope my comments are helpful. Bottom line I just love watching and catching up on how you’re doing and of course I also learn things.

I love the videos of your allotment and what you are doing because it has helped a lot for me to see what I should try for my garden. Also seeing how to manage the new raised beds at your place is very interesting too

That replacement polytunnel looks to be working out really well for you! I like shorter more frequent videos, but whatever works for you works for me.

Great video Gemma, I will always watch your channel, all your things seem garden related, so please keep going. I get a lot of good advice & tips from you. Take care.

Hi Gemma Wow so many lovely tomatoes you have harvested and some interesting bean seeds to save. Looking forward to seeing you at Malvern next weekend ❤️ x

Excellente vidéo bravo 😊 A bientôt

Some awesome harvests Gemma and great job on pruning. Mine have all been removed now but the green ones are ripening in the house. You’ve got sunshine and we may be getting rain and I’m totally fine with that ☔️. I think your content is great and the mix up is interesting to watch. Have a super week Gem, Ali 🌦️🇨🇦
