Nice clean potatoes

I recently bought the Seesii 8” mini chainsaw and couldn’t be happier with the purchase. Took out 100’ of old bushes and small trees up to 7” in diameter with ease and on one battery. Terrific little chainsaw!

That's poor for a poly tunnel alright suspect poor overnight temps all season are the problem consistently below 10C most of the growing season

I agree growing conditions. I get mine from the garlic farm-solent wight and I always get a good crop, not this year, it was pathetic!

I've just harvested a 30ltr bucket and got 10lb of Charlotte potatoes out. I've used a fertilizer called spuds galore. I will certainly be using it again.

Blame geo engineering for the rain

Hi Mark, I love the random youtubers appearing in the corner of your video, absolutely brilliant, I am subscribed to Tony & Dannys 😊 I use the very same buckets for my potatoes, carrots, garlic & leeks too 😊 nice harvest of Charlotte potatoes. Thanks for sharing and take care 😊

Hi Mark, the weather has been so unpredictable, warm, hot, cold 🙄 your sweet peppers look so much better than mine in my polytunnel, mine are abput the same as yours but the leaves are gettimh munched but, I do have small sweet peppers on them, hoping they will get bigger. One of my plants,only has two trusses and the top had stopped growing, there is no evidence of more leaves at all, very strange. My 5 other tomato plants are doing ok (crimson crush) first time growing them, the sweet million is just covers in flowers & tomatoes. My hubby's cucumbers are in his greenhouse and they are flying. I feel exactly the same as you, its puzzling this year. Great video update. Thanks for sharing and take care 😊

I have been growing Czechmate for about 4 years and save cloves to replant. Have had amazing harvests every year, this year slightly smaller but still bigger than supermarket stuff. Jo Devon 🙂

You didn't say how many seed potatoes you planted per bucket.

Looking good ❤. Jo Devon 🙂

Potatoes look good 💯. Sorry about your 🦵 ouch 🤕. Jo Devon 🙂

Our potatoes were about the same as yours, although I've not weighed them yet. It's funny how we're so concerned when we fall if anyone sees us, lol. I'm glad you're ok, Mark. It could have been much worse. I'd do a bucket of each, potatoes and carrots 😊

Like # 100! Woohoo 😊 Container Potato reveal videos are my favorite! We've been swamped with rain here in Texas. A lot of mine rotted. For my sweet potatoes, I have some in ground and some in containers. Here's hoping we get enough of a harvest for the year. It's time for me to dig the peanuts but it's supposed to rain through next week! I've never grown them before and I really wanted them to do well. They are varieties I had to order because they aren't available around here.

I agree with the taste aspect but I’m getting a little despondent with growing them 🤔 it’s my 4th year with buckets & the yield is always so poor. This year they’re split too. I’m obviously doing something wrong, but the £ of the buckets, seed & compost just makes me think is it worth it….

It always amazes how potatoes can hide in the soil, they're such a contrast in colour yet appear out of nowhere!

I would do both. Try it out and see what grows best, you never know could be both brill. 😊

My first earlies did better than my 2nds. Neither ones flowered though & foliage died back on both at the same time. Very tasty though! (International kidney & Charlottes) Hope the leg is better soon

Great harvest for a peg leg Pete gardener 🤣, but really hope your well Mark, happy harvesting, Ali 🌤️🇨🇦

My first thought was : He has the same t-shirt as Danny, a split second later -No , It is Danny!😂👍 I tripped at my plot some time ago. It was not as fancy as a🦸‍♂- move, more like a comical 🤡face planting🙊🤭🥴 😳 I hope your knee/leg heals well. Mint on the potatoes, 🤔. I have to try that. I usually put a lot of fresh dill or parsley on mine.😋🥔🌿🥔🌿🧈

Nice harvest. How many seed potatoes did you have per bucket?

Hope your OK leg is better soon. Enjoy your harvest 🥔

Hi Mark was that Danny holding the subscribe logo 🤣not a bad harvest they look nice and clean. hope your leg gets better soon, take care,Steve

Hi Mate Would covering your lawn with black sheeting from say, Nov to March kill the grass, all weeds and leatherjackets. ready to start from scratch next year

I’m doing both carrots and spuds the slugs has demolished my other carrots

Silly bugger for falling over, hope it's not too painful for you. Gardening can be dangerous,my mum once put a garden fork through her foot by accident.

Good harvest. New potatoes with butter for your dinner, sorted😁

Both!! 🙂

My poly is exactly the same here in Aberdeen 🫤

Cloud seeding and bee pesticides are being used

I thought it was just my tomato plants which have very few trusses and the plants are very sparse looking apart from a massive Marmande plant which is in a pot on the bench and has lots of flowers and big tomatoes.

That’s the whole reason I started my channel, as a new gardener, so I could look back and see the difference year on year. Glad I found your channel, great information and a great presenting style, first time I’ve seen pepers grown in halos, what a great idea. Thanks for a great video.

Hi Mark, most of the roots of the tomatoes would have hit your poor soil and then gone sideways. Next time you go to the plot water about 3-5 liters of water per square meter around the tomatoes but don't water the halos. Leave for a couple of hours and then water normally the halos but stop feeding for a couple of weeks let the roots in the compost around the plant to take up all the goodness in the unused compost. Water the compost around the plants about once a week.

South yorkshire here. I've not many tomatoes yet and alot of the tomato plants have curling branches. I think it's lack of sun. Pepper plants seem ok & cucumber plants. All in polytunnel. We definitely need less rain & cloud and much more sun. Not seen many bees but the butterflies are all over the brassica. Hopefully august will be better. Everything seems behind

😂😂 BC gardening wear shorts and a flannel shirt today Mark, it’s 20c today. My tomatoes outside are like yours and we have been as you know insanely hot, my flowers are dropping off before setting. You actually don’t need sun to ripen them just to get them happily producing but they can be temper mental princesses. My tiny Tom’s are prolific though so at least I may get some cherry ones 🍅🍅. Have a great day Mark, keep at it, Ali 🌞🇨🇦

Hi mark im in Edinburgh and our low temperatures are 7-9 at nights and all the rain and cloud cover has slowed everything down apart fro the slugs. I just hope they catch up. First year with no courgettes as they all got slugged.

Lack of warmth, sunlight and pollinators in many places this year. Not even the Buddleia is covered by butterflies as it use to 🐝. Do you reduce some of the green on the tomatoes?
