You say it’s not interesting but it shows us that we are in the same boat as you say….. and that you are an average human instead of someone who never fails. If anything I feel it shows how things really happen in life and it doesn’t feel made up! Lol

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Thanks, that means a lot.

[@stevendowden2579]

nice video erica

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Thanks for watching.

[@dannyrose9387]

Hi Erica, it's not a disaster it's gardening. Keep up the good work. Danny

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Thank you.

[@sparrowsendhomestead]

I love your videos for a good dose of reality! I’ve been putting off making a video of my garden for months now because it’s just not going as well as I’d hoped 😬 It’s mainly time. I struggle to find it 🤣 I actually think loads in your garden looks good, especially the poly.

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

You keep going and trying... Make that video... There isn't enough reality on social media. 💚

[@StellasVegetablegardens]

I love your videos so please put one out.

[@borntomay1]

Hi Erica. I'm loving watching your lovely summer veges from cold New Zealand. We also had a community garden plot, then gave it up to grow in our less than ideally situated home garden and it's taken a couple of years to get some things growing as they did in our plot. I miss going up there to get away from everything as well, so hang in there, it's definitely a big transition moving gardens, way more than we bargained for . Lemon cucumbers grow well outdoors in Auckland NZ. The vine is absolutely rampant, so the poly wouldn't be ideal for them. I find that cucumbers and tomatoes prefer a bit of shade and especially cool damp roots , rather than cook in the full sun all day long . When you think of it, hot weather plants that are understory sized wouldn't get full sun even in hot countries!🍅🥒🌶

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Thanks for watching. 😊

[@sheiladavidson5389]

All your videos are interesting because it shows just how growing can be so affected by the climate. I'm in North Wales and my onions are the same as yours. Germination of all the alliums has been poor, my lettuce has not hearted, my peas have quickly dried out and my tomatoes are at the same stage as yours. I used to put animal bedding in trenches under my potatoes. A friend had a saying "there's always next year" As gardeners we have to be optimistic. It's good to see somebody growing vegetables without buying in lots of compost.

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

You're very right... Gardening is more than the harvest.

[@polarbear5905]

Your videos have been so very helpful these last 3 years when I finally had time to concentrate on gardening. I'm so appreciative of you sharing your mishaps as well as your successes - it's the best way to learn. Thanks for all the inspiration and keeping it real. Best wishes.

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Thank you, what a lovely message.

[@billelrod1779]

You’re making me hungry 😋..gonna keep this in mind for sure

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Thanks for watching.

[@mandytaylor1008]

I always love watching you

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Thanks for watching.

[@annagoodwin7557]

Hi Erica my crystal lemons aweful lots of male flowers couple of fruits set then fell off, sharnt bether again,did grow cue Hannah grow to about six inches long and just keep on giving had loads of cue's already. I always enjoy your videos very informative well done and your doing so well with your garden so much to do, you'll get there. Hugs from Shropshire

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Hiya, nobody has a good thing to say about crystal Lemon. 😂

[@mandytaylor1008]

Hi Erika menge tout don’t freeze well as they are meant for eating raw in salads. Grow sugar snaps as the peas grow but you eat the whole pod.

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Thanks for the advice. 😊

[@jpennturner]

My vegetable garden has been very slow this year with many seeds just not germinating at all. Spring was cold at night here and not very sunny and now it has warmed up a bit very dry.

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

it has been a funny old year.

[@howarddavies3744]

We moved house in November and it then rained/snowed for 5 months so I only have 5 beds made at the moment so I can understand about being behind with planting. So many things to put in but first I need to remove tons of Dockweeds. I have resigned myself to just a few beds for now and I'm prepping the rest ready for next year when I'll hopefully have a polytunnel or maybe a greenhouse. Good luck with your adventure!

[@lyndaturner6686]

I like the way you tell it as it is Erica, gardening isn’t always a success story, I have lots of onions but they’re small , I think half the country struggled with onions this year , my real successes this year are my courgettes grown in tubs and my climbing beans , I have already had a meal off those, anther thing doing well are my butternut squash and that is thanks to you , a few years ago you recommended the tomato halo’s so I bought some , this year I had two spare and put them over two of my squashes, they are doing brilliantly the third one that didn’t get a halo is very poor I’m sure it won’t fruit, so guess what ? more halos for next year.

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

I do love halos! Hope you have a great rest of the growing season.

[@bristolveggiebeds5310]

I mixed up my squash labels too!

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

So annoying isn't it? 😂

[@SmallholdingUK]

Oregon sugar snap are lovely peas to grow and not to tall 👍

[@DuffPharming]

I think your courgettes will be fine. I spent a couple of weeks worrying about my spindly plants and then ……💥…… they suddenly got massive and started growing secret fruit that I don’t manage to spit until they are massive. The yellow ones are easier to manage!

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Haha, amazing.

[@whatsmamadoing3188]

Watching from northeast Florida, USA. Love you videos!

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Thank you.

[@marykappesser5145]

good to see what worked and what didn't. Maybe you overwatered your beans and the seed rotted. That's happened to me.

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Possibly, I'm not sure.

[@mandytaylor1008]

Grow some flowers in that area to attract the insects and polinators

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

I do have flowers here buy they've gone over now. 😊

[@myrustygarden]

Crystal lemons seem to do better outside. Ours last year were prolific outside but crap inside. Cucamelons for me did way better in a big pot not outside 🤷‍♀️. Hopefully the mini bell taste ok, I grew orange hat mini last year and they were tough skinned and bla. Great tour Erica have a great weekend, Ali 🌞🥰🇨🇦

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

On, that's very interesting to know. 😊

[@dn744]

Yes, that sure looked better once cleared out. More air saves diseases 😊

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

That's very true, thanks for watching.

[@dn744]

@@ericaslittlewelshgarden I love your videos. Good, bad, all goes in. Much more realistic

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

@@dn744 thank you

[@mandytaylor1008]

Harlequin squash are small fruit I grew them 2 years ago and have a plant this year that isn’t doing that well

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Are they bushy?

[@notforwantoftrying1]

22:36 omg erica, there is a lot of bindweed there, you might want to consider getting rid of it

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Hehe, it's virginia creeper with one bit of. Bindweed from the pot. 😂

[@RyansGardenDiaries]

amazing everything looks so good

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Thanks Ryan

[@Plot-NG6]

Hi what type is your camera you use 😂

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

This one amzn.to/44guSkJ

[@pheart2381]

Ive definitely got some nice fat carrots forming,my first ever carrots. And got some bunches of homegrown herbs drying in my larder so doing pretty well in my 2 metre garden. Potatoes did nothing,so sowing angelica and sorrel in the tub when the seeds arrive.

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

sounds brilliant

[@ISA-sg4ck]

I like your video, greetings from Indonesia

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Thanks for watching.

[@notforwantoftrying1]

Haha, what is the purpose of the beer cans on the bamboo canes? All jokes aside, at least it was some Brew Dog ones - definitely a step above some of the low quality beers out there

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Stop me poking my eye out on the canes.

[@angelamatthews8190]

i only grow mange tout and sugar snap peas. my favourite mange tout is oregon sugar pod. BUT they do not freeze well. they taste really weird after being frozen, so we just eat them fresh.

[@mandytaylor1008]

Praps you watered too much and they rotted have you had a rummage to see if beans there

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Maybe.

[@the2dreamers]

LOVELY ❤️

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

thank you

[@BeFree-BeFrugal]

I’ve got just a couple of mange tout in a container, but when I had mine own garden, years ago I used to grow them in the ground… they always curled a bit . I never grew them straight like we can buy in supermarkets, I don’t know why, maybe a watering problem

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

I know exactly what you mean. Thanks for watching.

[@PointofimpactTV]

You’re full of good intentions and plant things intensely but then it all seems to die. I’m wondering if it’s just too shady in a lot of your garden.

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

I think the shade is a big factor but you've got to keep trying. 😁

[@cherylhowker1792]

Can you hot compost the bedding so it kills the seeds???

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Maybe, I will have lots of raised beds to film though.

[@myrustygarden]

If you put cardboard on top of that rabbit bedding/hay you shouldn’t have problems 🙏

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Great idea.

[@StellasVegetablegardens]

Very true

[@mandytaylor1008]

I bought a crystal melon and it died

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Oh dear, this one is doing a bit better then! 😂

[@johns8063]

Don’t mean to sound brutal but a lot of it looks like you can’t be bothered.

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

Why do you think that?

[@johns8063]

Because I’ve been allotment gardening for over 20years and I can tell when the effort has been put in and when it hasn’t. Also watch all your videos so haven’t just turned up on this one to be negative.

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

I wonder if you'd still have the same opinion about me if you looked at my weekly work and my parental schedule, not to mention the day to day running of a household. 🤔 Thanks for sharing your expert opinion, I'm sure as well as you many other people think I can't be bothered from the 25 minute snippet into my garden. Have a lovely weekend. 😊

[@johns8063]

You to

[@janagresham6485]

​@ericaslittlewelshgarden You do a fantastic job. It's not like we can just put the garden before the kids even if we'd like to sometimes 😂

[@IMADALBASRII]

Hello i like your channel i mean i like you But i dont like i hate you tube ads

[@ericaslittlewelshgarden]

I know, they are a pain, you can pay for advert free KZbin though, so if you hate them I would go for that.
