I have decided to take a break from KZbin for September, firstly to rest, and then focus more on Autumn and Winter content, finishing my next online course which is about creating productive planting plans, and to start work on book 3. I hope you have a lovely September and I look forward to seeing you all again on Saturday 3rd of October 😀🌱

[@MakeupMornings]

Well deserved! Wish you a great September month!! 😀

[@ewakraft5770]

Take ur time, we wait patiently for Oktober then, and await exided ur new book. ♡♡Big thanks for all ur videos this year. They where so interesting, i learned a lot and u kept me thinking and gave me new ideas! ♡♡

[@ecto78]

Enjoy your rest!! Your garden is amazing!!! That kale bed is soooooo nice!!

[@trudysfun]

In Australia we don't need Autumn and Winter content till March next year, so take am extended holiday if you like, and we will enjoy revisiting your Spring and Summer content for now ;)

Will be here in October when you return. Have a great rest (but it sounds like you have a full schedule)! ~ Cheryl

As a disabled gardener who lives alone, who can't drive, can hardly walk and has no diy skills, I have learnt two things this year. The first one is to NOT let my limations define my growing things. Yes, a big sack of compost is more than I can move, so open the bag and move smaller amount. It will eventually be an empty bag which I can then lift with no issue. Anything that can hold compost can be used to grow things - the right variety of tomato WILL grow in a yoghurt pot, potatoes WILL grow in a small bucket, that any crop size is still a crop to be proud of because I tried, I gave it my best AND hopefully, I will get better. The second thing I learnt is, in my case, little and often works better than a longer effort that puts me out of action for possibly weeks at a time. If I take smaller bites at watering, weeding, potting on etc, it gets done eventually. If I tried to do everything all at once, the chances are, I would not be able to move, never mind garden, for longer which can be devastating to seedlings, weed growth and pests building up. If I can only work for a minute today, tomorrow it may be two, and hopefully, before I know it, my stamina will build up so that I can do longer periods. As long as I keep trying, and giving it my best, I will succeed. I have managed to grow cucumbers, tomatoes, garlic, onions, and shallots, potatoes, kale, chard and lettuce, peas, broad beans and a climbing bean (i don't know if its a french or a runner but its climbing a wigwam), strawberries, raspberries, marigolds and nasturtiums, and herbs. I managed to create a raised bed using cardboard as a base and dumping 400 litres of compost on top, by hand ... I have no water supply in my garden, everything gets watered at the seedling stage with bottled water using a pressure sprayer, and then left to fend for itself by keeping my pots in deep saucers with lining fabric, and using everything from grass clipping to small animal bedding as a mulch. Some things died, some the slugs and snails got, but a few survived and cropped. And I even have two areas of my garden have been under black plastic since spring. I will hopefully order in more compost, and get another raised bed up by next spring so I can keep trying all over again next year.

[@kqueenkqueen1290]

Donna Stevens How amazing are you! Well done. If you can do all this, then I have little to complain a about. I need to stop wishing and get on and get digging and planting. You have given me great encouragement.

[@AdmiralReering]

My neighbour when I was a kid got his 2 legs blown off in the trenches during WW1. He lived to be 102 and had a big vegetable garden till the end. My mom would send me over to help harvesting strawberries and beans.

[@tessasilberbauer6219]

Chronic pain and mobility problems here. I am blessed with a partner who can and does gather/carry stuff like compost, but yes. A little every day is the way. If I do too much I will be bedridden for days so sometimes all I can do is 15 min. The right tools - gathered over months and years - like a Koran hand hoe, help immensely. But I still have limits. And slowly I am increasing the yield for my family meals.

[@donnastevens8832]

@@tessasilberbauer6219 what is a korean hand hoe. I am REALLY looking for a hoe I can use one handed while either standing with one walking stick, or while seated.

[@tessasilberbauer6219]

@@donnastevens8832 Firstly I am writing from the perspective of someoe who sometimes needs to garden with a walking stick and sometimes from a plastic chair, so I'm learding those parameters too 😁. A Korean hand hoe is a tool with a short handle - like a trowel. It has two ends (like a pick) but one is a triangulat blade with the active end being a point. The other end is a square edge. It's very effective to weed things like dandelions and grass clumps, and if the weed is too old, the square end will chop the root - or dig low enough around the plant that the triangle end can work. It can be used from a garden chair, just only on the ground directly beside it. Not recommended for walking stick days. I also have a traditional basic paddle hoe with a long handle, and that I can also still use from a chair, just not on ground close to me. A Dutch hoe, btw, works by pushing only and is really awkward to use so avoid that if you can. (Edited to properly answer all of your question! ☺)

[@cottagemommy5116]

One of the things I've done over the last several years, was to choose 2 or 3 vegetables per year (in addition to my normal vegs) and grow quite a few varieties of those, so that I can narrow down the selection to what produces heavily in my climate and limited space. The next year, I choose 2 or 3 different vegs and repeat. I'm serious about producing a lot of food and I need to be very intentional to get enough from my beds for my family. It's taken several years, but I know now which things are hard hitters for me. Also I try to invest in my garden each spring. By buying a nice tool or by installing permanent trellises as one example. It varies by the year (and budget), but over time that pays off in production too.

[@litomora8468]

My tomatoes just produced fruits this morningggg. It is my VERY FIRST crop ❤️❤️

[@flyhigh9944]

Lito Mora a bit late aren’t they?

[@litomora8468]

[@flyhigh9944]

Lito Mora ah ok, for some reason I was imagining cloudy and rainy Britain lol I have so many tomatoes this year but they’re all still green yet

[@michelemilesgardiner4522]

That's exciting.

[@helenstewart2085]

As a 30 year veteran of growing no dig in the same garden, but in a different hemisphere to you, after 45 plus years of growing vegetables, can honestly say I am always learning something new. Climate and soil conditions are so important. My gardening method adapts to the climatic conditions, we haven't had a freezing winter for 3 years, no excessive spring wind for days or weeks on end for several years, two very moist summers in a row, a early spring this year, looked like it could be a great year. Then the wind starts up, 4 days so far, can't open any window on that side of the house. Compost freshly applied would been blown away, if previously hadn't learnt to apply 4 to 6 inch layers, carrot seed will need a board on them until close to germination.

[@kellyshanahan8139]

Thank you for all your incredible videos! I’m a retired female, 69 years of age, and you have inspired me to become a vegetable gardener. I wish you could visit Quebec Canada to help me grow in a very small space. It’s the 2nd of July so am going to plant broccoli; cucumber and red onion seedlings, plus some more kale seeds. It’s really hot here so hopefully they’ll be ok. Any tips for mid season planting? Thx Kelly

[@1la1dy74]

Not only you are very handsome, you are also a gentle soul. Thanks for your videos. I have learned a lot!

[@gregorypesce9004]

VERY WARM WELCOME TO THE GARDEN ! :)

[@ellen6742]

I'm so glad I discovered this channel. I don't know if it's a skill, but as someone who rents a home, it's been essential to build a great track record, always pay rent on time etc, and then be prepared to rent a place that's a bit rough and the owner is fairly absent and flexible. Combined with a good real estate agent, and the odd self-initiated improvement, it means I get away with pushing the limits a little and turning lawn into vegie gardens, and interplanting vegies in the flower beds.

[@brent3611]

I bought a mulcher which mulches small branches and particularly leaves. It's been a valuable addition to my compost and garden. Also collecting and storing rain water.

[@karinvertue103]

[@AmberExista]

I'm super impressed. When I saw how densely packed your plants are I thought you're one more of the New Zealand or Australia guys with shit ton of sun. When you said you're in England I thought I'm not hearing well. It's honestly the first garden I see in such a cold region that looks so rich and luscious. Good job! Subscribed :)

[@luckypenny312]

I dream of having a full garden like yours!

[@VasarosGamta]

The root leaving thing definitely works! I left my nasturtium roots in the soil last autumn, I sowed some more this year in the same area and there were lots of worms and microorganisms

[@svelanikolova5776]

I got a lot next to me overran by stinging nettle. Thanks to your video, I will now be using it for many things. My bunny seems to like it dry. I got 20 bundles drying already as we speak. More when the rain stops. Thank you. My mom had pain in the breasts and all she had to do is drink 2 teas from nettle and have 2 soups I made with fresh nettle. THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@highlandscommunityclub1160]

My garden skill is watching informative KZbin vids like yours, and making notes on it. I’m keeping a garden journal.

[@fatherofchickens7951]

I have what I call my “throw away garden” in the south corner. It’s 4x6 and anything I’m not sure about, it may or may not survive, something I’ve never grown before. And it always surprises me how well it produces!

[@montyshinn8704]

Love how you encourage others to feed their soil. In my many years of gardening I know and have experienced the importance.

[@HuwRichards]

Thank you so much, I too am learning and experiencing the benefits of a healthy soil as time passes☺️

[@Mrbfgray]

Good ideas here. One labor/time saver is to leave the clippings in rows/piles around beds and run mower over them with bag attached to catch chopped material for spreading. Of course this is mainly if you have a quick easy mower which means battery powered to me.

[@seamusdonahoe1547]

All so great! Especially love the thought about throwing out the crop rotation (having a hard time convincing some of my clients about that). I've also been looking into experimenting with mushroom growing alongside the veg, namely Winecaps in woodchip mulch, and oyster/shiitake/lions mane in logs. I've been playing with using raw logs/sticks as bed edging in a semi-wicker style (like modified hugelkulture), and am looking forward to seeing if mushrooms can be grown in that.

[@suzannefronzaglio2427]

I watched a video on the "Plant Abundance" yt channel, (he lives in the State of Washington, and has a "Food Forest" in his backyard), where he uses the "chop and drop" method to improve soil. And he showed how he grows Hollyhock flowers, and uses the whole hollyhock plant as a "chop and drop" source, because the hollyhock plant has a deep taproot, and brings up vital minerals and nutrients to itself, and by using this plant as a chop and drop resource, it adds nutrition to the vegetables and other food plants you're growing in your garden.

[@enatp6448]

Perfect timing for this video. Thank you!

[@wadesupphaprasert6407]

I am so surprised to see your Grow Food For Free book in Thailand bookstore. I once thought of buying the book and had it shipped from abroad but idea abandoned. So I bought the book right away today. Thank you for all lessons you always share.

You're very welcome Cheryl :) I am so pleased to hear how much you value the videos, it's why I keep making them hehe

[@ironimpactdojo]

I cannot say enough about Huw's book, Grow Food For Free. Definitely check out this master gardener's book. Within the first 10 pgs, the tips you'll find can help revolutionize your approach to gardening w/insight on personal and communal, as well as free and relatively easy ways to keep costs low, while maximizing yields. Great book!

[@ecocentrichomestead6783]

I don't know if chop and drop will have the material composting faster, but it has to be the fastest way to build a soil ecosystem! Material of all stages of decomposition is there and the animals that feed on it. They till the soil keeping it soft. They leave their dung with water soluble nutrients to feed the plants. I was really surprised how fast earthworms and soil beetles were attracted to a layer of meadow clippings.

[@tennesseenana4838]

I just found your channel this morning and am thrilled with what I've already learned from your videos! I've always loved flowers and had been learning about the ones who benefit our pollinators. I planted some herbs and a few flowers last year and will be adding more of each as well as collard greens, etc this year. Because I have hard clay soil as well as an entire yard planted in Bermuda grass, all of my planting is done in containers. I'm calling them my mini raised beds as most of them are elevated. That means less bending down for me and very few weeds. I've also been saving my kitchen scraps and adding them to the soil and making compost tea to water the plants. The more I'm learning, the more I'm learning there is to learn. Love your 'out of the box' thinking! Even a small water feature of some sort attracts birds who will eat the bugs in the garden. I just have a shallow 12-inch saucer with some rocks in it for the birds to drink from and bath in. They especially enjoy it on hot summer days. I also tried what's called Winter Sowing this year with my seeds. There's a lot of information about it now on You Tube. If even half of them germinate I'll have a lot to plant and celebrate about. I'm looking forward to watching and learning more from your videos as I wait for my planting time here.

[@mrssamwinchester100]

One thing that has helped me a lot is the companion planting book, CARROTS LOVE TOMATOES. One of my favorite things from that book is growing bush beans to be interspersed among corn. Beans give nitrogen to the soil to help the corn be healthy. Your film was WONDERFUL! Thank you!

As soon as you recommended the taking of notes, I remembered I had done so a while ago, but failed to keep it updated. I didn't have a particularly good yield this year, BUT as I updated my logs I discovered some small victories I had overlooked, and came away feeling like it was a productive season in terms of experience, if not yields. Thanks for the motivation!

Hello from the U.S. Thank you for all of your videos. They are so helpful and give me a lot of inspiration and encouragement. I live in a very arid, hot, windy part of the U.S. and, believe it or not, I have found that leaving "weeds" in the garden helps with moisture retention especially during snow storms. They kind of act like snow-fences catching the snow and dropping it to the ground. Whereas it would otherwise evaporate/blow away. I observed what did well here naturally, which was, of course, weeds. And I started planting veggies around them for protection. The weeds helped with shade, water and pest control. :)

Best optimizing skill I learned this year, is to let a couple of radishes go to seed. Just one radish produces masses of seed pods, which are delicious! And the insects love a blooming radish, especially the hover flies. (and later the white butterflies... Their larvae will eat the whole bush in juli/August, but hey, it is good for diversity, right) 💚🌞🌱

[@flyhigh9944]

Maj Hoenborg yep I’ve been doing this for a few years now. I do the same with spinach

[@ferdinandgluck2723]

Well then, have a lovely, cosy and calm working september!! Here in Switzerland today was the real beginning of fall with low temperatures, wind and rain. I love August and September, because there ist all I need still in the garden but the working rhythm slows down. Our beds mostly are not going to rest in the winter. So I have no chance to cover them...? But mulching ist always going on:) One skill I discovered this year is, to let brassicas like black kale or purple sprouting broccoli live as long as they like. They came over winter flowered, I cut them back and since then they are producing lovely leaves and even little flower heads. So I'm relly on your side, that the outdoorplayground that we call garden is so much more than just produce after strict rules!!

[@j.reneewhite915]

kale florets can be eaten much like broccoli.

[@morgannwilliams967]

Amazing new info for me!! Thank you so much. So much heat here in SouthernCalifornia most times and I keep rewatering the beds to try and keep them from drying while I can’t plant much of new straight into the bed with full sun. I just did my first bed soul reviving and hoping it works and this adds a whole other great idea with the plastic or cardboard too.

What a brilliant video... I'd watched the others you mentioned too... I'm new to no-dig, and you mentioned MORE things I didn't know, like putting beds to sleep for the winter... where, then should I grow the winter veg I'm hoping to get from the garden centre soon? Just choose a bed, then put others to sleep? Do I then need to rest the winter veg bed after its harvested? What about the beds u put garlic, onions, etc, in- mulch first... sorry lots of Q's I realise you probs won't have time to answer, but I'm quite excited after watching that, and I'd love to go from 1 or 2 pumpkins, a few courgettes and a couple if handfuls if tomatoes, to being much more self-sufficient next year🤞🏻 👩🏼‍🌾🥕💚
