- Bean there done that 🤣
Bean plants are all out 👍 except yard longs and I’m hoping they get a wee bit bigger first. Tomato spares are quaking in their boots at being sacrificed to the freaking slugs 😡.

Thank you for stopping by 🙏. Have a great week and always try to remember gardening is an exercise for the mind, body and soul. Harvesting is a bonus you cannot simply measure in weight 🥰🐝 safe thanks for watching.
If you’re not a subscriber I’d love for you to join in on the crazy garden lady ride 🤭🤭.
Ali
You always inspire me to grow new things. But your garden with peonies are my favorite. Thanks for sharing. Have a blessed day
Thank you so much Ms Renee 🥰
İzledim güzel video teşekkürler Türkiye'den selamlar😊💐 Hülya
Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a blessed week 🙏
Can't wait to see your lovely peony blooms when they come out. Could feel your pain with the slugs. Have a good week Ali.
It’s getting a bit crazy with how many pests are about now, first time tomatoes have been totally destroyed. But flowers will make up for it 🤭 and cheer me up. I’ll make sure to post loads of flower spam. Have a great weekend 👩🌾
I'm catching up, Ali. You're certainly the eveready bunny who doesn't stop. Everything is looking healthy!
Cheers 🥂
Looking great Ali, hopefully the allium survives the slug attacks. Kale is doing great too. 🙏👌👍😁💪
And now the leaf curl Steve thinks they have miner 😭😭, I’ll most likely have to pull all my shallots and freeze them. And they were doing so good this year. I’ve not seen allium miner here well I guess they are the same as beet leaf miner (right). Kale is doing fabulously cous your a star ⭐️
@@myrustygarden I hope not, fingers crossed.🤞👍❤️
Pole beans are looking 😍 and very surprised about tomatoes 😭. Never had them eaten by slugs! Happy gardening Ali, all looking lovely 🌱🌱
Me either Chris first time ever slugs are eating my onions and tomatoes 🍅 perhaps they just have acquired a taste for salsa 😜. It I’ll put out more and I have some small sized plants for the patio 🙏. Have a super week 👍
It’s all coming along really nicely isn’t it. Can’t wait to see the peonies, especially the white one.
Have a great week growing 😊
Thanks so much Clare hope you have a super week too. I’ll make sure to post pics 👍
Wild fires already?! I hope not too many people are affected.
I'm always impressed at how clean and tidy your growing areas are 😍
Ah that’s so nice I sometimes it’s a right tip 😅. Raining again today so this is helping with fires and concerns of future ones. It is my understanding the evacuation orders have been removed and luckily people can go home 🙏. Not sure how much to rely on but it’s supposed to be better this year with cooler temps.
Hope your all well Karen and you are taking it easy 🥰🥰
Nice update Ali. Love how everything is waking up. Those bean starts are so hearty. You have so much growing, I love it❤
Thanks so much 😊 I am quite happy we should have lots of beans 🫘. Have a wonderful and blessed weekend 🥰
Things are coming on nicely Ali - mostly anyway. Glad you got a bit of rain. Yes, we did too and the slugs and snails are animal acting things now. 😩 we had a relatively mild Winter so I think loads of the buggers survived. Oh well, we just got to do what we can do! Hope you have a great weekend. Mags 🌺🌸🌻🌼
I was just saying the same thing it was cold but not long spells. I think this winter if and when it snows I’m going to do a wee bit of tilling the soil in the beds to get little blighters hiding 🙈, well that’s the plan. I now seem to have flea beetle, leaf miner and fungus gnats not to mention the slugs 🤦🏼♀️. But yep no guarantee in gardening but we soldier one. Have an awesome weekend Mags 👍👩🌾
OMG Ali, oh how your garden has grown...it is looking beautiful. I love your garden center, I think every gardener needs one. Enjoy you Memorial Day.
Thank you Ms Ursula it is getting a good watering this weekend 🤭 and tomorrow but should dry off again by Tuesday 🤞. Gives me time to do some repairs on the greenhouse and set up for summer. Have a super weekend and happy Memorial Day 🇨🇦🥰🇺🇸
Your peonies are huge 🌱🌸👍 It has been so dry here as well and I've been wishing for rain and now it came. It's pouring for hours already 😀The plants need it. The pansies are really gorgeous. Have a great weekend Ali.
The peonies are loving the weather me not so much it’s very much like your Heidi, as it’s pouring here now too 🤦🏼♀️. I am thrilled pansies self seed and spread as I’m trying to get more self seeding things going. Just wish marigolds did as well not happy with them this year, god forbid I have to buy some 🤣. Have an amazing week and hopefully enjoy the garden in some cool sunshine 🌞
Good morning, Ali, from Windermere, Florida zone 9b USA
Nice update on the greenhouse. I like the new layout👍
Amazing how your weather has warmed up...finally!
Can't wait to see your seeds turn into beautiful blooms ❤
Take care
❤Peggy❤
Good morning lovely Ms Peggy 🥰. It has rained a bit and been sunny so the plants are doing well, except for the tomatoes 🤬, I have spares so will replant once they are perhaps am it bigger. Hoping the new layout makes life easier for watering (solar system to set up). Me too can’t wait for sunny days and beautiful flowers all around. Have a spectacular weekend and stay safe 🥰
Ow you selfseeded your own seedlings 🤣 Always love your ramblings 🥰🐝thanks for the great video🌻
I think self seeded are the best and sure are stronger for some reason. 😜😜 I will continue to ramble about the garden then 🥰, thank you for always supporting me with such lovely comments 👩🌾
Keep us posted on the lovely flowers, looking awesome 😎
Thank you! Will do Dipak 👍, happy gardening from rainy 🇨🇦
Nice update things are looking good 👍
Thanks 👍 Jay it’s getting there, have a great weekend and hope everyone is well 👍
Everything looking great Ali. Love they way you call it the Garden centre 😊
Thanks so much 😊Gray it pouring here so the garden centre is closed 🤭🤭
The garden is filling up lovely now Ali 🙏🙏Have a great day 🌱🌱🌱🌱
Thank you! You too Glen 👍👍
Hi Ali the black pansies look amazing . A brilliant update I hope you get some more rain soon. Have a great week Tracy
Self seeded and up until a few years ago I didn’t realize they did that 👍 love a plant that sows itself 🤣. Lots on the go but feeling more pest pressure this year. Winter will need a rethink on tiling to get the eggs of stuff out of the soil. All good it’s gardening no one said it came with guarantees, have a fab weekend Tracy 🥰👩🌾
Nice one Ali all the best Merrill and Michael ❤🐕 and Poppy
Have an amazing trip see you back at the allotment next week 🥰🥰
Wow, I’ve never had slugs have a go at my tomatoes 🍅 that’s a first.
All the rain we’ve had here I’m sure my celery will be enormous😂😂😂
Tricia’s bought me a couple of dark lilies but I think it will be next year they take off. Although they are from farmer gracy over here and we’ve had lots of bulbs not do anything.
Our alyssum got eaten by the slugs 😮😮 I have back up luckily.
Oh no how sad wild fires already 😢 🙏🏼to all fleeing
Poly looks so big with nothing on that side😂 I know it will soon be filled.
Off to the plot later and hoping there will be a few strawberries 🍓 to pick.
Off for a coffee ☕️ and to finish watching 👀
Fresh peas off the vine here too 😂
Big hugs 🤗 Allie & Tricia xxx
Morning lovely ladies. Me either I think they much like salsa as they are eating the onions too. I grew celery not realizing of corse it can get huge (should have remembered the lovage fiasco of 2021 😜). Oh no I hope the lilies do well, do,they not have a guarantee of some sort, I have had things replaced no charge that didn’t grow or germinate. I have some of my alyssum in pots too, I swear I’m growing every fri kin n thing in pots next year hanging from the ceiling 🤬. Yes it’s a scary thing when half the worlds is flooding the other half is burning 🔥.
I hope your well and not over doing things, but I know Nurse Ratchet will keep you in line. Hugs and kisses to you both and lovely Leo ♌️
Alll of a sudden we have gone from not enough sun and too much rain to too much sun and not enough rain.😂
You have been keeping busy Ali. Your garden is going to look fabulous again when all the flowers come out.
Keep up the war on slugs and don't be too harsh with the camera woman 😁 , we all have technical issues now and again.
Best wishes , John
🤦🏼♀️ next week we are forecast 4c nights it’s bloody June. I took my peanuts inside and I am hopeful the tomatoes that the slugs haven’t eaten 🤬 are ok. Life is certainly entertaining if nothing else 🤣. Hope you are both well and Dahlila is staying positive, please tell her it will get better ❤️🩹 at his deepest despair Gerald kept the faith and he is 99% better now 😜 the other 1% is cause he’s old. He says to tell her to keep up with physio and it will get there 💪. Have a wonderful week 🥰 thank you do always being there to support
Morning beut ❤ celery love damp conditions. So whete ever you plant it lots of water. If it's self blanching, there is no need to build up soil as it grows. 👍 slugs do love it as a young plant but will regrow normally. Good luck Ali 😊
I need to do more research 🧐 before I go oh that looks cool to grow 😜. I seem to grow lots of slug favourites these days, they are making salsa I’m sure with my tomatoes and onions and cilantro plant. Oh well 🤷♀️, have a marvellous weekend Helen don’t work too hard 👍
Everything looking great greetings from Africa Uganda God bless you
Thank you 🙏
Many blessings
I just love all of your hanging baskets. I really want some for in my greenhouse to grow strawberries in 🍓. I must get some this weekend!
Cucamelons sound cute! Are they cucumbers 🥒 or melons 🍈?
🤬🤬🤬 SLUGS 🤬🤬🤬
LOVE the sound of the rain 🌧️
I love bush beans, Red Swan are our favourite but they get bit when laying so low on the ground. So I thought we’ll why not just put in baskets they are a small plant and I can actually harvest the entire plant if needed and resown them. Hopefully it works as well as it does in my head 😜. Cucamelons are called a bitter gherkin I think and I don’t like them but Gerald does off the vine. I have heard people pickle them too 🤷♀️. It’s a grow along so I’m in for the win 💪. Oh lord never ever had slugs eat my tomatoes and onions before 🤬🤬🤬. Fans gone again but should be back in a few days. Have a great day Rich and enjoy the plot 🙏
Lovely update Ali. Never seen slugs go for tomatoes before. How strange
I can’t believe that either and onions 😱. It’s insane but hopefully enough survives until it gets too hot for them. I am working on protecting my dahlias as they are finding them now 🤬🤬
After all the rain we had yesterday my celery should be the size of a blimmin tree.
😜😜 I’m not sure I want celery that big. I hear slugs like it but then again they seem to have a taste for everything this year. Have a great weekend. Cherie and hugs to Tony 😍
Hey Ali! You have a lot going on. Your plants are doing well for the most part,
sorry about your tomatoes, The slugs/ snails are so annoying. I didn't imagine you
getting snow this time of year. The leaf miners are my worst nightmare.
Stay safe. Happy gardening Ali☘
Hey Stacey oh it’s relentless isn’t it one pest after another, my fault in leaf miner should have done more research 🧐. They apparently winter in the soil so if they were there once (last years beets) then they will come back. So I’ll have to deal with in winter. Have a sim play amazing and blessed weekend 🥰
Great video Ali you have been busy busy, unfortunatly the ol' Slugs have decided to ruin you plants leaves and the leaf Minor, and yes sometimes i think the same 'why do we bother' i think it's just to feed the slugs, leaf minor and every other thing that ruins your growing.
You i think said you call them 'Starters' we call them 'Plug Plants' nothing wrong at all in getting them and using them, they still have to be nurtured and grown so i don't see the problem, they won't grow themselves.
Oh and our Weather is crap it's Rain, Rain followed by Wind and Rain then the Wind dies off and then we get a bit of Sun and then Rain and Wind again.
Take Care.
Barry (UK)
I was just saying to someone his is the year of firsts for me, so many things the slugs have never bothered with are being decimated 🤬. I now have to hide all my beets and I’ve resown chard. I found out the larvae over winter in the soil so next winter I’ll be tilling my beds to expose them to snow 🤞🤞. Yes plug plants and holy mackerel after all this trouble I may just start doing all plug plants 😜 I don’t need 500 cabbage seeds anyway. It has been cold in the morning and afternoon if a lot better but still tanking temps at night next week so who knows. The world is supposed to love a gardener not do everything it can to piss us off 🤣🤣. Anyway all good we get there in the end, have an amazing weekend Barry and stay dry 👍
Hey Ali, what ever happened to the marigold seed's you threw everywhere. Not one of mine germinated..😡
Wiggle finger, thank you Ali...❤️
I love that idea of lifting your pots off of the floor..
I have bought starters too, I always think I'm cheating..😂
Brilliant to look around to see what you are growing
Take care Ali...🐮🐮🐮
Hey Manda Moo finger 😜, oh lord a few came up finally and slugs ate them. The slugs are voracious this year but normally they are less once it gets super hot. Pots off the ground seem to be working 🤞 and I will be doing same on the other side come winter (😜my backs aching thinking of it). I think some times people that buy starters are smarter than all of us, don’t need 300 seeds that last a year and take forever to germinate, just buy 6 or so starters and off to the races. Hope you are well and getting some fun time in the garden, it’s chucking it down here yet again and will for a few days 🤷♀️
Hey Ali 👋 I had to laugh at the hanging baskets of course the lillies will be staying put!!
There is so much more space in the green house 🤩 I love it
That is SO interesting about the tannins, I thought that was only a thing you found in tea, thank you for that tip from the garden centre as I would have thought you could just mix it all in!!
Oh Ali the trial and tribulations of making a RUclips video 🤣🤣 you must garden in silence!
The garden is looking lush and green but my gosh those slugs have some cheek!! Xx
I’ve created a monster the lillies are multiplying 😜 and taking over the bed but luckily it is a self contained bed. I am thrilled with the greenhouse update and am doing a few repairs etc to keep birds out. I was so pissed the little sparrows figured out how to get in and kept ripping all the straw out of the pots. Yesterday I was in there and four came flying in 🤣🤣 scared the crap out of me. Spare tomatoes at the ready and I’ve got small ones to keep in pots 🤞. Have an awesome day it’s pouring here and will for a few days 🤷♀️
@@myrustygarden sparrows are a nightmare here too! They are so hungry as well they eat all the bird feed! It's raining here today too so I decided a day on the sofa was in store, have a lovely day and catch up with you soon ♥️ x
Hi dearest Ali you will find celery like to be kept damp and not dry out , you will be having to make a bigger swimming pool for all your slugs and snails to swim in at this rate.
Hello my lovelies 😍, I hope you are both well. Oh lord trust me to try something that needs care and attention 😜 and apparently slugs like. Yes I’m on the hung for an ibc tank for them 😜😜. There are not enough tomato plants left to make a salad never mind freeze this year, but I have spares and will wait til they are a bit bigger 🤞. How are the flowers doing on the lottie hope you have some gorgeous colours to enjoy. Miss you both but as long as your well that’s what counts 😘
You got lots going on! The little self seeded plant with the red vein is an amaranth ❤
Oh perfect thanks Kay most likely I reused soil 😜 I have stuff all over I didn’t sow there. It’s pouring here so I’m catching up on vids 👍👍
Ive just bought pink blueberries. Pink lemonade 😊. Also picked up a cranberry plant. Not seen them for sale as a plant before.
We live in an area with HUGE cranberry farms they are acres and acres in size. They have a cranberry festival too but we don’t go it’s an absolute madhouse because the town is too small for so many people and tourists 😜
31C at night!, The black pansies are stunning, as for your celery, ive never grown it because I don't eat it and only grow what I eat, but I believe its a relative bog plant so needs to be constantly moist in the soil, if it dries out, your done....so somewhere that holds moisture. Great update..
I seem to be hearing from most people they like wet 🤦🏼♀️ so I will have to find a spot where they are easy to water 💦 in our drought filled days of summer. I am trying to be eat what I grow and grow what we eat but these were a why not Gerald loves celery moment 😜, it will come back to haunt me. Cooled down somewhat now but it will be back to insanely hot summer soon. Have an awesome weekend Shawn 👍
I diidnt know the slugs eat allium.i noticed my allium their been munched by slugs tooo..i think alll ur babies is looking amazing.ur a good mama ali❤❤❤
Oh my goodness Gracie I think they are eating everything these days 🤦🏼♀️, never had my onions and tomatoes eaten before it’s brutal 🤬. Hope you have a marvellous weekend 🙏
@@myrustygarden thanks ali.have a great weekend in your garden.
Instead of straw on your blueberries, get that incessant moss that grows almost everywhere, dry it and use it for mulch. It does have a slight acidifying effect.
Second option is a bit more complicated but works. Wash egg shells thoroughly, grind into almost dust, 1 large spoonful in a jar plus 1 cupful of vinegar, stir, let foam ( it really does foam a lot) and let it sit, stirring a few times, and you have calcium acetate which both acidifies and provides calcium.
1 drop per litre!
Any fruiting plants benefit from it.
Oh great idea we have loads of moss here in the garden👍. Some fabulous tips and what I love about RUclips gardeners we can always learn a trick or two. Have a simply awesome week I’m off to harvest moss 🤭🤭
Slugs are loving my squash plants this year and they don't usually bother with squash
Insane isn’t it, so far fingers crossed 🤞 they haven’t found my squash plants 🤦🏼♀️
Oh wow! You're growing Cucamelons too?! Yours are double our size! Got six on the go as of today, but think we'll regret it judging by how many you get from one plant lol. Love how much you've got 'growing on' there. Hope that in time we can grow such a variety of plants in our years to come :) (Tommy)
Someone said they are like triffids 🤦🏼♀️ but Gerald likes them so I’ll make him eat them all 😜😜. I think you will have a fabulous family allotment history for many years to come. It’s quite impressive how much you have accomplished, happy gardening 👩🌾
Hi Ali, if you can put some cardboard in between the soil and coir mat for your spinach hanging baskets that may help retain water.
I know you said not to mention it but a great name for a band would be Toms sunny beet miner slugs.
Oh fab idea I will,check on some cardboard and do that when I resow. 😜 well the band can go on bloody tour now thank you very much 🤦🏼♀️. Never had slugs eat so many oddities, I was just saying to Chris at Veggie Plot they have acquired a taste for salsa 🤭. Have a great day Ady I’ll watch your video in a sec 👍👍
The gnome looked like he was taking a leak 😂 You grow so much Ali despite your battle with slugs. I'm having the same lack of growth with seedlings, my cosmos are so pathetic looking I was think compost too. Slugs ate my sunflower seedlings.
😜😜 yes I can see that I’ll tell him not in the garden. I have so many things bolting now it’s crazy, shallots and my spinach 🤦🏼♀️ so I’ll have to pull them and freeze the shallots and steam the spinach up for dinner. But yes my marigolds after my saying (big mouth) how great I can grow them are the shits. It’s a first time year for me I think I keep saying that over and over 🤷♀️, oh well we carry on. Have a fab weekend Tracey and happy gardening
cucamelons are like triffids hope you have the space for them ❤ once they get going they are unstoppable
😜😜 it’s all Freddie’s fault, when can someone do a little grow off 🤦🏼♀️
@@myrustygarden lol never 🤣🤣 there would be no point in it 😁
My Swede 🤬Parsnip 🤣didn't germinate either , I will have to sow more
I feel like this year is a first kind of year, first time slugs ate my tomato plants, first time my parsnips got eaten first 🤬 first 🤬 first. Holy crap can it not be the first time I win the lottery 😜. Oh well resowing things it is Lee have a super weekend and happy gardening 👩🌾
Celery would be best in one of your beds and dappled shade in the afternoon is OK. They are water monsters.
Yard long are different...a little nutty flavor.
Ok I’ll find a spot for it 👍. Yard long are sure tiny plants to,start I’m so used to normal beans 🫘. It’s sunny and warm today but rain on the way so I’m doing bits of work in the greenhouse. The beets I’m going to hide in a mesh box because I don’t want leaf miner to get them too. Happy gardening 👩🌾
@@myrustygarden Roly poly's seem to be a problem, leaf minor has only gone for the nasties so far. Kinda a bummer on the pots it's a feature plant.
Still no real rain for you yet, except at the end I see, between the slug cursing lol. Celery works anywhere it can be kept moist so depends on how good you are at watering. I'm terrible so I like it in the ground with a bit of compost. The slugs will attack them but don't bother when established.
Oh lord not something else the slugs like 🤦🏼♀️ at this rate I’ll be growing everything on the ceiling. This is why my bush beans are all hung up in baskets. Oh well that gardening, a day of rain and back to sun again. Have a good one Mike 👍👍
I watched Ur videos sister love from Pakistan ❤
Thank you 🙏 many blessings
All looking great Ali. I might steal the hanging baskets with pots. I have spare baskets.
Thats awful about the wildfires. 😢
I am a pea lover fresh and uncooked. 😊
I chuckled at your tomatoe spares comment. 😅
My broad bean attempt over winter 22/23 turned out as a long waste of time.
Upbeat is a free music channel not quite the same but may work.
Black pansies were the first thing I ever grew. 😊
I need to plant some runner beans. My honeysuckle is loving it's position and i have another further down. I have a poorly jasmine though i need to move.
I didnt know anything about leaf miner till recently. I have neglectfully grown leeks and beets in the past.
Have a great week.
Take care, Jane
Thanks Jane it’s not easy getting anything done is it when the rain won’t stop, again today 😢. We don’t even like broad beans 😜 but they were a gift from someone so I taught I better try, these are the second sowing the first rotted in winter cold. I’ll check upbeat I love listening to music perhaps I’ll just need a mini hearing piece. I had not seen or heard of leaf miner either until last few years and though only of allium one. There is beet leaf chard leaf 🍃 seems any leaf 🤬, but my fault I should have done more research as they lay eggs in the soil and over winter there, so tilling the soil during snow may have killed off the eggs. But noooo I go plant stuff right on top 🤦🏼♀️.
Live and learn is what gardening is all about I guess. Have an amazing week Jane hope the weather is kind 🥰
@myrustygarden it's a tricky thing balancing bugs. I had some lovely dark almost black Lillie's for years, i had to cut them to avoid storms as top heavy. Never suffered then along came the beetle and wiped then out. 😢
It's drier today but am down with a cold. So catching up on videos. 😂
Hope it dries up for you soon. X
@@GardenMyselfHappy I have black Lillie’s all over and thank god so far lily beetles have not made the flight but I’m sure they will soon enough. Which will decimate half my lily forest 😭😭
Hope your feeling better it’s hmm yep raining again 🌧️🌧️🌧️
It's raining hard here since yesterday and while yes it fills the water tank but we are worried about the flooding issue because of the neighbour 😢 if there is a lot of damage seriously considering jacking it in.
The ericaceous soil would lime work? I don't know but thst would make the soil acidic ... I might need ti look into that 😂
I'm looking fwd to seeing how the pink blueberries go first for us.
Out of hundred of marigold seeds we have 2 😂
I'm not doing cucuamelons this year.
8:43 nothing wrong with the starters or plug plants 🪴 it's a plan b lol
Ok someone commented that moss works good on blueberries so I’m off to harvest some from the lawn. Dry it out and put on top of the plant soil 🤞. I hope the field isn’t too bad, are there allotments in your area you can apply for ? Just in case. My marigolds last year were stunning this year shite WTF it’s not an easy game is it. I swear once I’m don’t with seed I have it’s just starter plants from the on 😜😜, let somebody else do the hard part and I’ll just plant stuff. Have a simply awesome weekend, don’t forget to let Carl out of the shed once in a while and stay smiling 🥰
@myrustygarden il see if the neighbour is prepared to finish the bodge job but if not il be making plans 🙂 what that will be I don't know lol
Oo really, well I am sure the euracias soil is pine needles or some thing to do woth them.
It's bucketing down so fingers crossed it drys up a bit 😅 have a great weekend ahead
How much easier would life be without slugs Ali!! Everything is looking great. Have you grown cucamelons before? I grew them once and thought they were horrible. They look pretty though. Happy gardening x
Ahh slugs and leaf miners are my nemesis this year 😭, my chard has miners. But it’s early days so hopefully I can pick off the leaves and squish them 🤭. I’ve sown more and will keep separate from these. My own fault I should have never used that bed it had them on the beets last year. Gerald like cucamelons luckily but I don’t so,he can have them. Have a super weekend Isabel and happy gardening 👩🌾
Hi Ali, I love those black pansies, amazing. My compost has been mostly crap this year, so many times I have tried to grow swede from seed in different composts they grow a little turn yellow and die so I am going to resort to buying some plants from the garden centre😩
I’m m thrilled the pansies self seed every year and I don’t have to do anything 🤷♀️ who knew they did that. I will have to totally deal with soil this winter tilling may be needed to kill off larva from beasties hiding. Between fungus gnats and leaf miners and flea beetle the ground is teeming with pests 🤬. Why can’t slugs eat them 😜. Starters are the way to go I’m thinking 🤔 why buy 300 seeds for 6 plants. Have a great weekend Iz hope it’s sunny 🌞
What a difference a month makes. I hope you like cucamelon, we didn't. We are in weird limbo as we are hoping to complete the end of June so no idea what to do with the plants.
You have lots going on but the garden is looking lush. X
Best gardening wishes Malgosia and Nigel
Yes I guess a lot of big containers are in the plan for things so you can move them 🤦🏼♀️. I know what that’s like, when we moved here we luckily had possession of both houses for 2 months or we would have had to leave so much behind. I don’t like cucamelon but oddly Gerald does he eats them off the vine. I keep saying I’m giving up veg 😜 and growing nothing but flowers next year, bloody slugs are eating onions and tomatoes that’s a first. But we soldier on.
Hope Nigel is well and you are not getting too stressed about the situation, it will all come true in the next little while and you’ll both be much happier. Always in my thoughts and prayers 🥰🙏
@@myrustygarden you are absolutely right. We will have my house and the new our first together house in parallel so we should do this in a controlled way.
Try nematodes they combat slugs in no time. I use the wool pellets, they seem to work! And are chemicals free. Big hug from both of us. Xx
Polytunnel looking good Ali. Nice and clean and tidy - how long will it stay that way? 😂 Hope the cucumelons bounce back! Hope the parsnips work out this time, none of mine have germinated. So I might re-sow again.
😜 it’s already a mess I think a bird or forty got in there and we’re ripping straw out of the pots 🤦🏼♀️. So I have to move stuff around and fix that now. Cucamelons are ok I guess but they should d better once it warms up more often. Parsnips I have 2 slug survivors but if I don’t find him they will mostly likely succumb 😭. Happy weekend Mark
Thanks darlin have a fab weekend 👩🌾🇨🇦
