Hi Mark & lovely Buttercup ❤ we have had a lot of rain, at least the outdoor plants are getting a good water 🌧 tgat was a good price for the two supported nets 👍 plenty of potting and planting done. Hope all goes well with all your health appointments. Another great video, thanks for sharing and take care 😊

Afternoon Christine them two nets are for fishing and cost £100 new for the two😂 After saying that i have 4 nets with holes in them that are no good for fishing and would make great supporting nets...

Lots of rain still, sweetcorn looked amazing. Buttercup being her normally self. I've have nothing but issue with slugs this year

[@AllotmentDiggers]

Good afternoon Mark i agree this weather is working for the slugs

Hiya Mark, Ms Buttercup and assorted critters, so pleased you have planted corn for the little squirrels 😂🌽have you ever grown tree dahlias or Bell tree dahlias, they make a magnificent display but you need to grow them against a wall or somewhere the wind dosent snap them as they get very tall. Hmmm that's a lot of fish u catch, do you kiss and release them or process them for fish meal for fertiliser? Plot looking a credit to you and Ms Buttercup. Take care

Look at that bloody cat!! Lying around like lady muck!! I dunno!! LOL!!

[@Sean.hinchlffe]

One of cats killed a baby starling other day, tried to save it but by time got round to neighbours we caught Magpie finished it off & ate it. Never seen owt like it. Then I had clean pond out (1st time in 5 years) pulled out half a potato bucket of muck, 7 fish & 43 newts. Surprised you haven’t tried winding up your noisy neighbours with Sir Matt Busby way 😂

[@AllotmentDiggers]

Afternoon Sean well you wouldn't like what the magpies are doing on my allotments there hunting the newly fledge blue tits...The 43 newts are impressive they are on the protective list, After saying that there under every stone on my allotments....

[@Chris-pv2ht]

I do mine in a big blue bin that many allotments have. I just put the leaves in chopped and then have a tap at the bottom to get the tea so the tea has been brewing for a long time. Generally this time of the year takes around 2-3 weeks
