    Hi Catherine, Laura was using Bio-tone which is a starter fertilizer not a rooting hormone. Your tubers will probably start without anything as long as they are warm enough. I always enjoy your sweet, happy disposition, have fun in your garden!

    Oh my goodness....I could have sworn you were about to recite an Irish poem for us as you sat down in the sun after cutting the grass. Go for it Catherine...share with us some garden poetry ... As you feed your audiences spirits with the wonders of the garden. Bless you little one.

    I have my pots of Shamrock plants blooming, one dainty pink flowers, the other white flowers. They remind me of fairy bonnets...the shamrock leaves would be pretty little ruffled skirts. They are bought yearly, as a sweet memory of my Irish Grandma. I have some jasmine in a pot, it may or may not survive. Then the herbs I keep on my sunny windowsill, sage, sweet basil, rosemary, parsley, dill. I cook and add my fresh spices to my soups, casseroles, roasted meats. It comforts me to look at my herbs growing in my kitchen...another memory of my talented line of women cooks! The daffodils finally burst up thru warming soil last week and they finally bloomed a day ago...but are covered with an inch of snow today! We will have to see what survives! Our weather has been very crazy this year...28 F today, two days previously...in high 60s! Hoping this blast of snow is March having a "hissy fit" that its reign of icy blasts and record snowfalls...is coming to and end! Hoping April will be kind-hearted and bring us beautiful flowers!

    you definitely don't need to use rooting powder on dahila tubers, it's best for dipping cuttings if you're trying to multiply stock. Haven't see the other video you mentioned but dahlias potted up don't need any water or attention till they send up the first leaves. the biggest risk to dahlias is rot in too damp soil or freeze/thaw cycles. Even if you plant them late, they will give you flowers. I didn't get some of mine planted till August last year and managed to have flowers till late November. I get Gardener's World in the US on Brit Box and yes, Monty makes a great case for heavy mulching and anything I can do to keep down weed pressure, I'll do. My garden was abandoned by the previous owner and sat for 10 years, the weeds are trying to come back every single day!

    We've been mulching for a few years now. I live in SW USA. And it's hot and dry. We started with our rose bushes. They're all in the front yard. The last few years I've also mulched the flowerbeds in the backyard. It makes such a difference. And you don't have to water as often. The plants are doing so much better! 🤍

    Here in the Rockies we can't plant outdoors until May 30-ish and we daily have deer going through our property. I take the easy way out and have perennials, and buy bedding plants for veg, herbs, and a few annuals. I watch Laura, too! I so wish I could have a greenhouse like you have, but the high winds and hail we get all summer, and our winter temps make it difficult to keep one. Many of our gardeners have already started seeds under grow lights and use fans to blow seedlings to strengthen the stalks. They keep the in their basements and dining areas--whatever space they can take over! 😃

    I smile when you say 16oC is warm. Here in Queensland Australia we had 24oC today and we’re all saying how nice and cool it was. We rarely go below 0oC even in Winter so I guess 16oC would be warm to you. I can’t wait for cooler weather. Our daytime winter is 18-24oC and nighttime 4-10oC. Bring on the nice sleeping temperatures 😀

  • @zoeemiko8149
    @zoeemiko8149 2 года назад

    Best best best ever garden fertilizer and especially for tomatoes is fish scraps & heads! When you're planting your garden plants, even the ones in pots, chop up fish craps & heads and put some in the hole in the soil you're planting in. The difference is remarkable. I use one of those minced meat choppers to chop my fish.
    When the sun is bright and very warm you might need to add a light shade cloth to the top of your greenhouse. I have one on mine that's on cables, bigger eye hooks & pulleys. It was easy to rig & get screwed into place. When the sun is very bright & warm I pull the shade tarp over the top during the hottest part of the days. I love all the puttering you do in your garden and your approach to it. It's so lovely and very you.

I hav3 a lo5 of seedlings in trays and hav3 had to pot up some too. I hope my garden does well, I’m trying hard to keep my seedlings alive till I can get them in the ground. We shall see.

    We’ve had beautiful weather here in North Texas and I’ve been doing cleanup in the yard the past couple of days. I’ve raked leaves out of the flower beds (left there on purpose for moisture retention) and tidied up my patio, hosing down the patio furniture and getting ready to spend lots of time there. Today I planted some pots with petunias and have more planting and transplanting to do tomorrow. My husband is cleaning our water fountain, and we’ll be getting it turned on this week. I love to bask in the warm sunshine, too, so your lovely backyard and flowers are a joy to see! I love your videos, Catherine… you and Blondie have a wonderful week! 🌷

I am also cleaning the deck and setting up my entertaining area. Lots of cleaning and preparing for the gardening season. Started lots of seeds indoors under my grow lights. Starting them according to how many weeks before our last frost date. Our last frost date is the May long weekend which, this year is May 21st. Already started about 6 herbs and 6 flowers. This next week is going to be the most busy when it comes to starting seeds indoors. Can't wait till I can start the cold hardy vegetables directly outside, that will be exciting! Love your videos!

    I am going crazy here in the northeast USA. The weekend before last it was 72F/22C and I planted garlic and started lettuce outside like a fool. The last 4 days the low temps have dipped to 23F/-5C so I was covering my bed with leaves and plastic like a madwoman and moving my pots back into my (vinyl and metal) "greenhouse." This week the temps are popping up again to 50-60F/10-15C so we'll see if these poor little plants can survive. I have tomatoes in yogurt pots in my garage that I want to move into my greenhouse but who even knows if I should yet. it's all playing by ear. I love your channel!

    I’m enjoying Gardener’s World too! I love Charles Dowding ??
    We started zinnias, marigolds, spring flowering mix. A volunteer sunflower is about to bloom!! 🌻
    I sowed chocolate cherry tomato seeds and their about 2 inches high now!!!! My first time.
    I see the soil as our bodies, what we give the soil will determine the strength and longevity of the plant…as in we are what we eat!
    Good luck with your Dahlias!
    I haven’t tried those yet.
    Happy Sunday!!

    We had a polar vortex this weekend with snow and cold. Sigh...real spring may come soon I hope.

    Make sure you lay a tarp down before those bags are delivered because the clean up will be SO much easier when you are finished with them. Your area is so far ahead of Seacoast NH, we will have night temps in the mid thirties close to freezing this coming week for 3-4 days. I am SO anxious to get started! I have a rose to pot up, my flower bed to clean up. My front lawn to take up debris and lay seed. We must be about 21/2 weeks behind you!! 😑Can’t wait!!! I WILL be starring seeds this week at last!!

    You can always add mycrorizal fungi to planting holes it’s like a powder and it occurs naturally in the soil to help roots find their way through the soil. I love watching your videos you’re just a breath off fresh air .

    As a gardener I support mulch, mulch, mulch. Suppresses weeds, keeps in moisture, brakes down over time and feeds the soil. Like you I have been enjoying some lovely warm wether. My dahlias are just starting to pop out above the compost in their pots. And I have seed trays galore full of all sorts. Flowers and veg. Happy gardening. 🌻

    Your instinct it right, what your bought is to help cuttings to root. The stuff Laura talked about is ‘Mycorrhizal Fungi’ which helps a plant grow healthy roots.

    Ah, Catherine, I almost started planting some bulbs and seedlings outside, but something told me to hold off--and, sure enough, we've had another round of snow and a cold snap here in Buffalo, New York! I'm going to wait another 2 weeks now and then get them in some fresh soil in my garden! Narrow escape, that! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🏠🏠🏠🏠😻😻😻😻💖💖💖💖
