  1. Well filmed.
    Pertinent real information
    My allotment wasn't as amazing as yours, but I did get over 95 butternuts from 2 (two) plants.
    I also put 10-15cm of compost.

    Lot's to learn here. Great stuff 10/10 from me !

  2. An incredible example of how homemade compost can truly transform a vegetable garden 🌿 It makes me curious to see how the soil life keeps improving over time.

  3. You can't argue with that, can you….everything she grows looks beautiful & healthy! ❤
    Thanks for fiming 👍

  4. What a beautiful garden. I am watching from the southeast USA. I am envious of the Blue Hubbard you are able to grow; the dreaded squash vine borer devastates the Blue Hubbard I have tried to grow in the past.

  5. I love making compost, the only down side is a wee bit of graft, and the OCD triggering you get when you see neighbor's and friend's throwing stuff away as trash/waste and I'm like . . . . . . . CAN I HAVE THAT? . . . . . the looks I get hahaha

  6. I am always inspired in the winter to do more and more in the spring. By mid summer it always turns into….well, maybe next year 😁.
    But I did just order Kalette seeds from Johnny's (expensive, but a trusted source here in the states) so at least I'm off to my usual good intentioned start.

  7. Didn't know you could hot compost diseased parts. I was sad to think of wasting so much material. Thanks for the tip
