March Allotment Garden Tour 2018
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 мар 2018
- Join me on a tour around my allotment garden and my newly organised shed! I'll also share with you the exciting activity that has taken place in my wildlife pond, in between the heavy snowfall this month.
My allotment is based in St. Ann's Allotments in Nottingham, UK which is a grade II listed site that is known to be the largest and oldest allotment site in Europe.
I apologise in advance for my nervousness, the interrupting chainsaw and rambling! This is only my second video so if you like what I'm doing let me know and I might invest in getting a microphone!

great update loved it, good content and was good to see your plot and future ideas look forward to seeing it grow well done for the cover up hopefully the newt spawn was saved.
ggwildlife thank you! Yes, hopefully they’ve survived ok 🤞🏻☺️
I love finding a new gardening channel with several years’ worth of videos. ❤️
What a truly lovely allotment. It's like a secret garden.
Very nice update and looking forward to all your flowers blooming! I absolutely love your "She Shed" and having the portable burner for tea and your beverage station is awesome. Happy Gardening! :) Peaches
Awesome! i can't wait to see the progress of your allotment. This is my first year having an allotment so i need all the ideas i can get. Thank you.
So good to have found your channel, and I really love your laid back but informative style. Have just applied for my own allotment space and am watching you with interest. Thanks for the tip re planting sweet peas in tubes/ rolls! Will stop putting in recycling bin and save them :)
You have some amazing tips I love the ones about putting tomatoes deeper into the ground so as to strengthen the steam keep up the great video's 😁
I loved this until the snow came. Although it does make me feel less alone. I live in Minnesota and we just had a historic, record-breaking, mid-April BLIZZARD. The snow was gone save for a few stubborn patches, my daylilies are popping up, sedums are starting to sprout, and there are buds on the trees. And then we got winter storm Xanto. It's apparently the heaviest April snowstorm on record in the Minneapolis/Saint Paul area. So now there's a record 14.7 inches of snow on all my spring plant growth. I have never been so sick of snow. I hope the weather is treating you better! I'm excited to see more videos from you and your lovely allotment.
If you tease the soil around the base of the plum tree the robins will love you and you wont have so many saw fly larvae to crawl up to the buds . . .Happy allotmenteering :)
Terrific first video! You and your garden are delightful! Love your shed, your tunnel, and all the progress you have already made. It's an enchanting place.
I have watched lots of videos on gardening but found most to be boring in the extreme. Ha The one I love to watch the most is Sean Cameron but now you have moved into place with him. You are very interesting and enjoyable to watch. Looking forward to seeing what you are doing in your garden.
Bye for now from southern Indiana USA.
Lovely video and really interesting to see your plot! I signed up for my first allotment plot this weekend, so looking forward to seeing what you are doing as I learn! Thank you
Good to see another allotment blog. Looking forward to seeing the next update.
Lovely content. I love ❤️ this. At times I wish I was a UK plot/ allotment Gardner. Y’all made it seem so special
Excited about your frog in the pond. Love your outfit...that shirt color look great on you!!!
Lovely looking plot and that Hummingbird wallpaper is gorgeous! Good luck with your plans this year :-)
What a great space you have Katrina, looking forward to seeing your plans unveil and grow! Loved your little cabinet and tea station. Hope the newt spawn survives x
you have a smile that melts butter
So happy to have found your channel. I have subscribed. Loved watching your first video, you did a fantastic job. Looking forward to your next video too.
found your channel from other similar sites.
your shed and your tools?
screw in a hook on the inside of your roof at the highest poit, both ends and in the middle, then put in another hook about half way down the roof in ends and middle.
then attach to the hooks a bunge cord, you may want to double ti up so you have x2 strands sitting in a loop from hook to hook, then you have over head space to place tools like your rake, spades etc rest the tools inside of the loops so they sit up out the way which will give you some more floor space to put other stuff instead :)
Great idea.
You can also glue lengths of plastic tubing together a nd fix it in a corner and just slot the tools in the tubes
For smaller tools make a bucket of oiled sand and stick them in. Keeps them sharp and rust free.
Just found you and I always like to start at the beginning of my RUclipsrs journey’s and I absolutely adore your shed its so cute 🌸💕🌸
Found this by accident but i am glad i did. Nice video. Keep up the good work.
Found you by accident really, loved the clip so have subscribed.. looking forward to watching more..
Paul -Johnno- Johnson well that’s a happy accident! Thanks for watching and subscribing. 😃
Thank you for a lovely video. I have just taken over an overgrown allotment so will enjoy watching your videos and learning from you.
Hello Katrina. Just found your channel and subbed. Looking forward to your post cleanup. Love your shed. Cheers Dave
Great little episode I’m looking forward to following your progress on you Allotment and you’ll be surprised what we all pick up from each other.
Really enjoyed that tour and update. looking forward to seeing how things develop. Lucky you with the frog spawn. They'll see off all the slugs for you :) Thanks for sharing.
Wow, Job well done! Entering your plot thru the gate reminds me of a scene from “the lord of the rings”! Very mystical. Keep up the good work. It’s looking great! Mike
greenbean I love to let the ivy grow around my door! It’s like my own Secret Garden.
Only 2 videos posted and I've already subbed. I'm looking forward to more.
Enjoyed the video, please keep them coming.
Really like your allotment and shed. Love that its relaxed!!! Mixing flowers and veg its brilliant.
The other allotments where I am are all raised beds, straight rows and flowers are seen as not needed.
I have two beds just as cutting flowers and have herbs and flowers all over the plot.
Awesome video and very nice content too...Looking forward for more such videos ...
Great video I volunteer at a local community garden allotment in Bristol which is run by a group called the wellspring centre which helps people like me with depression or anxiety we help out but its not fixed so we can go in when it suits me and I can either do some work or just chill out and chat to the others or I can do some RUclips videos and share on my channel it’s really great to have somewhere to go instead of being trapped indoors alone for days or weeks at a time
Great vids from a fellow allotment gardener in Durham! Therapeutic.
I think your garlic is looking healthy, without a doubt. Enjoy the harvest in a few months!
She's got my kettle! But my cooker is red, they're great aren't they. I have 3 from having done outdoor catering. Not got keys to my allotment yet ,but the day's close. Keep the shed safe. Leave the paint job as is, looks good. Wilko's Plastic Sheeting 8 x 6 metres £2.99 enough could make a poly tunnel. I used thick pvc pipe for the hoops of the tunnel.
You have a tea station for tea bags , what ever happen to brewing tea leaves . Rome was not built in a day . all plans take time.. I like the idea of painting that cabinet. I wish you all the very best on your allotment journey.
Glad to have found your channel, liked and subbed! Look forward to watching more
Erica's Little Welsh Garden new friend.
Hi, i recently got an allotment, so hunting for info and found you. Great videos, ive seen them all so far, signed into tube for 4th time to subscribe. I might get a vid of my plot up one day? I might have to wear a mask,as no where near as good looking as you. You have a good looking plot. After seeing this, i have some heavy duty pond liner in shed i will make into a water feature for wildlife etc. Oh, your nervousness was nice, i say that in a nice way too. Thanks for sharing your adventure.
Ah great video, the snow was so pretty wasn't it, I hope your newt spawn survives! x
Lovely plot. Please dont get rid of the plum tree. Once you get it pruned well, it will be so beneficial to the garden space creating shade, and great fruit for you and wildlife.
Joey Oliver don’t worry, Joey! It’s here to stay ☺️ I love to see it in bloom and the shape beautifully frames the shed at the bottom of the garden. Thanks for watching!
I just found your channel by chance when it came up after one of Dan's videos on Allotment Diary. I'm looking forward to seeing how you develop the plot.
baconsoda thanks for watching! ☺️
The blackcurrant bush could do with a lot of the old [black in colour] stems pruning to the ground- obviously now after fruiting- to encourage new shoots to grow. New shoots are lighter in colour than two year old shoots. The idea is to encourage the plant to renew itself.
bahons72 thanks for the advice! I did prune it in autumn but maybe I didn’t remove enough of the old wood!
I love to potter about in my small back garden planting some fruit and veg ,so an half plot alllotment seemed a good idea back in late Febuary..,,but im not enjoying the experence..the ground is over grown and hard,the shed i was promised from "Terrys old plot" never happened,the folk seemed odd and it feels like a job getting it ready to plant rather than an enjoyable hobby...still only dig half my back is aching my shoulder hurts...hoping once all the prep work is done it will be more enjoyable cause right now i could easily just stick to my own garden..!!
Look up ‘no dig’ beds.
Put the plank edgings down on the grass and weeds. No more than four foot wide. If you’re not organic - spray inside with weed killer. If you are - don’t. Cover with a layer of cardboard. Cover that with four inches of compost/manure. If you want to use it later this year you need well rotted manure. If you can leave it longer unrotted is fine.
Then plant straight into in summer or next spring.
Never stand on them. Hoe occasionally. Next year another couple of inches of compost/manure.
wow your really Beautiful , i really Admire your Shed and your Allotment , I like your ambitions you talk off , i have an allotment too , which I have recently got a few months back , Ill do a video of it soon and let you know when i upload it .
Thanks
Sam x
Looks great! Really interesting plot, very woodland-y.
It was good to get a feel for what you're going for on the plot.
Loved the little interruption from the blackbird.
Love the leaf wallpaper! But I'm sure you can use the same green shades of that one for accents & it would work with the hummingbird paper too. Decisions, decisions... Thanks for the video from Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta in frozen Canada.
Oh. I just read your notes. Please invest in a mic 😎 I really hope you do a 'shed-load' of videos this year and in the future. You seem to know a lot about gardening. When did you get the allotment?
Marie Currie thanks! I got my allotment in September 2014 ☺️
lovely, don't get lonely
love your shed
Loved this video, well done.x
due to me taking a rest on the side of the window sill i cant be bothered to go large because the avengers are doing a damn good job looking after thanos and aliens. im busy looking for wasp lady but i guess shes saving iron mans metal arse again. oh well i may aswell show them all whos the biggest ant. lets gooo larggggeeee. great video Katrina love from a fellow derbyshire ant of a man
Interesting building over the hedge, close to and overlooking the city.. Were your allotment origonally Victorian "pleasure gardens "???
PS Huge improvments over the last few years.
Chapeaux mon ami. 🎩🎩🎩
Just came across your channel subscribed
Hummingbirds are my absolute favorite.
Gorgeous!
Very interesting video's vibrant vitalizing VegePlanTerRain!!!
Great plot💪
Cool plot 👍🏻👍🏻😉
Great visit to your garden. We garden in NW Kansas.
Gail Blain Peterson thanks for watching!
Just found your channel and subbed 👍 Nice shed!! >you may want to try and find some net curtain to put up the window facing the wild life area? A nice looking plot....look forward to the next episode.......Happy Gardening..........Nigel 😀
MuddyBootz Hey Nigel! I’m so flattered that you’ve watched my video and subscribed to my channel. I’ve been watching your videos for a long time (on my personal account). Good tip regarding the netting, though I’m not a huge fan of the look of it. I’ll see how much my pottering disturbs the birds! Katrina x
When I saw this I thought it was my allottment! Even down to the poly tunnel with the water collecting gutters which are brilliant. And the overgrown plum tree.
I got mine last March - untouched for four years.
I collect the water in dustbins with the lid turned upside down and a hole cut where the handle is. Water barrels are too tall and cost far more.
I'm curious how allotments work. Why would they go untouched for so long?
@@kikik5266
Sheer incompetence on the part of the office supposed to be running them.
@@fainitesbarley2245 lol well I guess so. I'm in the US. Are they affiliated with a neighborhood and residents apply for them? Is it something you pay rent for? I don't know the way they work.
@@kikik5266
They vary. You don’t have to live locally. Usually there’s a waiting list. You have to keep them in a ‘good and husband like manner’ and there are for growing vegetables, fruit and flowers for personal and family use only.
Local Authorities have an obligation to ensure some are provided but lots are much older than that. There’s some in Nottingham that are about 200 years old.
My one is provided by the local landowner. Originally they provided them for their employees. Then extended them generally at the insistence of the Local Authority rather than be obliged to sell land I expect.
@@kikik5266
£30 a year including water. Urban ones tend to be more expensive.
I love this video🌼
Loved it! Well done 😊
The Homemade Garden thank you for watching! 💕☺️
i wouldnt bother with wall hanging most tools, in a small shed like yours, id just put a stout dustbin in the corner and stick em in that, save the space for shelves or cupboards ;0)
Great job Sis... you might need a larger stove..someday?? 😕😆😑
Very good program
Just subscribed, great watch x
Found you your video on suggested videos. Liked it and subbed. I also do garden videos, although my space is a lot smaller : )
Здравствуй! мне очень нравиться то чем ты занимаешься, делишься своими знаниями и позитивом и самое главное своей бесподобной улыбочкой, ты очень красивая девушка!!!
Do you have a video on how you built the strawberries cages?
Nice work I like it
Love this
Grand vid .. Magpies actually come in my kitchen yup guess why.. they come and steal my cats din dinz lol ..and they are welcome .
Nice tour
I just discovered your channel and cant wait to watch your allotment journey! :) #newsubscriber
love your vids
Like your Videos
YES THE TEE IS VERY IMPORTANT. DANKE.OK
come on....someone has to mention the colour of that tea!
Nice to see you were not afraid of a challenge. May I ask do you have a rental fee for your plot? I’m from Ontario and just wondering how
things work in the UK. 👍❤️😊
Great video :0)
Not sure what an allotment garden is. would you explain?
Great video! I've subbed :)
Guppy's Garden & Allotment thanks for watching and subscribing!
Just don't use mustard as a covercrop/green manure in the same area year after year. Or it could result in club root disease, which will make it impossible to grow any brassicaceae for the next 20 years on that plot.
Is there a link to your blog.please
wendy Thompson thanks for watching! My blog can be found at homegrown.garden 👩🏻🌾
I wanna move to Nottingham but I seem to find only Student properties do you know of any places i could find places in Nottingahm that arent students
This is what a real woman is, no make up perfection gardening and wow!!
You might be able to hang some shelves across the windows
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.....
Nice garden tour ! ! One suggestion though:You need to get in front of the camera more often.
subbed and great videos :)
What plant is that at 8:02? It looks like a purple yucca
Cordyline ‘Red Star’
@@homegrowngarden Thank you, and for responding so fast. I been watching all your old videos here lately. Somehow one your video’s popped up so I watched it, I really enjoyed it. Maybe one these days I’ll try some Hot tea, I’m from the South so we like our sweet tea lol. Have a good garden day!
Where did you put the milk then?
In my cup of tea! ☕️
@@homegrowngarden .. hello lovy.., I salute you for doing the amount of work you do on your allotment..,I had a very very big garden in London..,too much work but I’m happy with a very small garden in Luton, Bedfordshire now.. so how do’u keep the milk fresh in your shed then?
@@homegrowngarden .. good night sweety, such a wonderful hard working lovely person.., god bless you & a very happy Christmas to you & your family
She is a goddess.
God almighty! Another fair British maid in her 'allotment.' What century is this? I could spend the whole morning over coffee listening to the accents. I want one of you gals. Shall I bring a weed whacker or a compost box?
That was not newt sporn sorrey that was frog sporn newts lay there eags on plants under the water but the newts will eat the frog sporn and the tadpols if you want frogs and toads you do not want newts
Richard Sydenham ahh that’s interesting. I don’t mind what residents I have 🐸💚
Wow ..... I couldn’t care less if all your crops grow upside down coz to be honest I’m only watching to watch you lol
I could make a better sound inside that shed
