Oooh, first here 🙂 hello 🙂 Good to see things to sew bearing in mind the very wet summer we've had so far. I'm in West Wales too, and everything is all over the place in my garden, this gives hope! 😀
I grow far more bugs than food. Your garden is awesome.
Your advice is pure gold. Keeping my family very well fed. Thanks for looking out for the little people.
There is still time for Autoflowers. I try to look at cost per area/time for cost to benefit. I can buy a spud, onion or swede cheap.
Prescribed Icky sticky flower for my medical issues cost about $500/month for 30 grams, what vege is worth more than that/foot squared? I like to target the most important/bang for buck produce.
Boy choy is so sweat it seems almost unhealthy
What are your thoughts about Demeter compared to organics?
Hello Hue, have you ever done a banana peel fertiliser video ? I have never seen anyone do an in-depth review on the PKN values and if it actually works and process time wise.
I have a grasshopper problem
2:26 Don't cook anything in aluminium. It leeches to the food (more when it's moist, like salmon) and is toxic.
Hello Huw 😋
Huw how do I stop my carrot seedlings falling over when I water them please? Even though I use the gentlest watering can and try to water between rows some always fall over and some don’t get back up! 🙈
Khu vườn cho thu hoạch cà rốt rất tốt .
Love your channel and book. I've learned so much. Could you show us how you organize all of your seeds? And how do you store them? I keep a small old refrigerator just for seed saving in my barn. Works great but a bit disorganized inside. Any help (or videos) much appreciated. From Kansas USA.
Dear Mr. Richards, may I move your video to Chinese media? Of course, I will indicate that the copyright of the video belongs to you. Thank you.
Huw your channel is so helpful. I live in Zone 6 on Lake Ontario in the US. This year I took your advice and planted Nystertium and the cabbages between them have no bug damage. The Cabbages outside the Nystertium in fact have bug damage. Thanks so much for the great advice and awesome channel.
Here in Thailand I can grow Daikon (Chinese) radish all year round. So I always make sure I sow a few seed amongst my Cucumbers, corn and chillies 🙂
Must be nice.
Just exactly the info I was looking for!! Thank you Huw!
Nice, I planted most of those last week as my 1st frost is a little earlier than yours. We have been having a very hot dry summer so once things germinate I imagine growth will be quick even with the shortening days.
Thanks for telling us the list starts at 1:20 before giving ur announcement. Thoughtful and considerate!
Dont you give your beds a brake
I have a bed under a tree…it doesn’t get a lot of light…any ideas what I can plant in it…?
I bought your book just to support you, though there's no way I can pull off that garden on my own little scrap of suburban yard…but my dad SNATCHED IT when he saw that I had one, so perhaps your knowledge will be utilized very soon in central Kansas, thank you very much 😄
I love that you said there were going to be 10 crops but you sneaked in many more! 😂 So helpful! I'm a biggg fan of paksoi in stir frys as well
I actually plant kale in the spring and it feeds me through winter. Then in the spring I pull it and replace it with something else. Kale is such a wonderful vegetable.
Why do all gardener Youtuber assume that the entire universe only reside in their climate zone ?
I grew Albino beets I bought at Baker Creek Seeds, and they are amazingly sweeet!!!!
I guess I should get out and get some seeds going!
I am a gardener. I grow thriving brambles & blackberries & pretty yellow ragwort. Some plums have appeared in what I thought were bushes (trimmed accordingly). A few raspberries, currants & the odd strawberry & wild strawberries (about 5-10) revealed themselves to me. Strimming/mowing/hedging/deadwooding (any moment now 3:54 )/watering/brambling/nettling. Oh well!
I think this pity video might be for me & I do have some troughs & compost, sand & vermiculite, many seeds, many bulbs so the intention is there … 😂
Thank you Huw for sharing your experiences and hard earned knowledge with all of us! Much appreciated! Blessings Kiddo! 🌻🐛🌿💚🙏💕
