    Hi! Love the drone footage of Fulbeck. I was wondering if I might be able to use some of it for a RUclips series I’m making. I was raised in Fulbeck, and found myself homeless in 1997. Would it be ok if I use some of this footage for setting the scene?

    Hi, you appeared in my feed, I like your banter and your humor. You should try not burying your seeds so deep, the general rule is to plant the little seed 2× its depth. Make a drill with just the end of your fingernail, add seeds, sprinkle with soil to cover, gently water and cover with cardboard, straw, something to help keep the ground moist until the majority have sprouted I find this method works well for little seeds. Wishing you a good harvest from 🇨🇦

    I couldn't see your plants properly to help you. A close-up would help. However I can see you've got lots of plants. Labelling really helps as things look similar when they are small. I use plastic ones a write on them with a 4b pencil. It never get washed off or fade, and using a rubber you can rub off and use again. Buy decent labels they'll last years. A tip from an old gardener.

    Yeah, pea plants don't need to be separated, they don't care. Tip: Leave one pea pod on until it's massive, then shuck the peas out and plant them right below. I wasn't sure if green peas straight out of the pod would grow, so experimented last year. It's gold--they grow quickly. You can get a constant flow going the whole season by doing that.

    I plant in totes ! There's a place close by me that sells them without lids for $1.00! I drill holes in the bottoms for drainage. My biggest ones have giant bird of paradise, large displays of canna lily,sunflowers, smaller ones have calla lily, or individual tropical banana trees etc. They last for years if you get the heavier ones. I buy the cheap topsoil to fill them,$2.00 a bag then add compost, fertilizer and maybe some blood meal or whatever the specific plants needs are. For $1.00 I have huge planters. I decorate them with whatever I have, like colorful cans cut into mosaic shapes and glued on them or nail polish or paint. Love those planters you got but no B+M anywhere near me ! 😁
