when growing beans use pop bottles (3ltr) size cut one end off and place over the beans so when they emerge the slugs cant get them. then remove once the beans are large enough.
Hi Jessie those tomatoes look Fantabulous, I have been growing Cobra beans for years and they never let me down, wishing you both a speedy recovery.... take care Steve
When I germinate brassica seedlings or any plants that slugs love I sow them in small seed trays .I fill a large gravel tray with water and stand the small seed tray on top of a brick in the center of the larger tray making sure there is a good inch gap between the brick and sides of the gravel tray ..just like a castle surrounded by a moat ..the slugs won't cross the moat ...lol
In my experience Bolivian Giant Achocha fruits late September, early October, even if planted early. I am in West Sussex. The ' fat baby' have always been quite early.. You are now my source of vicarious gardening as a fall has led to my needing new hips. Glad to say I have never needed to protect against badgers! Cheers!
*JESSIE* try SOY SAUCE, butter, garlic on the swiss chard - the combination is really delicious. And O M G that peppermint chard is as beautiful as any flower! I grew a crimson/hot pink stemmed chard years ago and when the morning sun hit it, it GLOWED!! Were just getting into our growing season here in Sydney and I literally feel like a kid at Christmas. Ah, the many joys of growing veg! Cheers!
Hi Jessie and your Mum, oh no! Poir you, nothing worse than a sore neck & your poor ankle too! Hope you recover quickly. Loys of planting done. Those melons look lovely, mine were a disaster. The weather is so unpredictable & wierd these last few weeks 😕 lovely video update. Thanks for sharing and take care 😊
Wow, look at this peppermint chard! I definitely will put it on my garden wish list for 2024! Together with this giant beans!😮 Happy to see by the end of this video that you are already able to walk. Last weekend I also had a little accident in our allotment: i fell over something while running behind my 5 year old son, who has stolen my hand shovel (is it right?Not sure how its called in english as I am writing from Germany). Anyway...I feel with you and hope you are well by now. Btw. since I mentioned last time that I wish you were showing how you cook your harvest I discover your cooking videos 😅! I didn't know about them as I am a new follower of your channel and already very impressed by your knowledge and your wonderful natural way of being a human. And gardener. And chef. And surely also a wonderful daughter. Thanks for starting this channel! Really, Jessie. Thank you. Oh! And what is this Achocha??? Never seen that?
so much delightful exercise for an artist's eye in the garden!! better pose some of that peppermint chard and those borlotti beans in a still life and have a go!! : D
No tatsoi for Jessie 🥲. I had friends over from the Uk (one even from London) and Ireland last week and they left on sunday with that thunderstorm. The 2 from the Uk where home just before the whole air control thing went down. The one from Ireland was stuck till wendsday😱. Anyway,loved to see you again. You make my week . Lots of love from Belgium
Here in my part of NZ, runner beans and Gigantes are perennials. When I pick my Gigantes and Borlotti beans, I pick them demi sec and freeze them. No soaking required before cooking, straight into the soup or stew pot!
I feel your pain Jessie, i had a TIA 2 years ago and my right knee has not been the same since, so i was getting out of the car and the knee failed to lock so down i went right in a puddle, i was soaked. but at least it gave my grand daughters a good laugh, Your produce is looking good considering the year we have had. I hope your mum is feeling better, summer colds are the worst lol
I really enjoy watching you both work in the garden. Sunshine, rain, kitty and chickens; it's all good! Looking forward to the tomato test. Especially the flavor of the Pork Chop and the inside color and flavor of the Ananas Noire.
Thank you. I really like that you offer ideas for cooking various vegetables! I’m enjoying the exploration of new to us veg etc and have found myself wondering what I’m supposed to do. At my age, I repeat the old standards and I need and want to try new things with my new garden.
What a lovely episode. Those beans are on my list for next year. I adore butterbeans, so I’m sure I’ll like the Greek giganti. Not sure why it didn’t occur to me to grow beans for.. well ya know… the actual beans. 🤯🤣🙈 I only grow french beans to eat as a whole thing, as I’m not a runner bean fan normally. Schoolgirl error. Fruit cage is brimming and that peppermint chard at the beginning. Oh my days.. gorgeous ❤️ I started off envious of the blue sky .. what weird weather you’ve had the last week. Proper stormy
Can you not make a little cover like the enviromesh carrot one for the seedlings in the greenhouse? Chard is gorgeous I’d grow it just for the colour 😂 as we don’t really like the flavour. Hope you feeling ok , have a super week ladies, Ali 🇨🇦
Hey Jessie, Great bean harvest, I really like the domes you were using today. Those large chard leaves were magnificent. Maybe take the bubble wrap from the greenhouse and wrap yourself up. ???What is the Ococha ??? spelling?? I have been thinking of the Ananas Noir for a couple years now. The name sounds like the Nonnatus House in Call the Midwife. Maybe the Green Doctor will help your neck. We will be having four more days above 33° C this weekend at least one day 38° C. More than 30 days above 33° C this summer we average only 13 per summer. I will cross my fingers for your melons. Have a great week Cya next week
I had such an over abundance of broad beans from six 20 foot rows, that I have dried 15 pounds of them, as well as froze 10 half gallon bags of green ones. It was your channel that made me try growing them. I have a huge crop of tomatoes on the vine, ripening, and a good bunch of second planting of potatoes, but have struggled with a lot of things that we are usually successful growing. Just started the brassicas for the winter garden.
Hope you've fully recovered from all your injuries Jessie! My daughter goes out to feed the chickens and ducks first thing and regularly falls down in the mud. She said there's no merit in being sober!! 🤣🤣 I love the peppermint chard and being a 100% chard fan I will definitely grow this next year. My Lucullis and Fordhook and also Bright Lights have been brilliant. September already....it'll soon be Xmas lol Cheers Jessie!!
Thank you for cheering up my insomnia session 😂. I've just got another half plot, 725sqm now! Bad time to herniate a disc. So making jam, chuntney, crumble, cakes, soup for freezer while gorgeous husband does the labour, love him. Q, Jessie where do you order your garlic from please? I would like to grow some soft neck and giant, Norfolk based, sandish soil, mid water table. Keep cracking on, you are all amazing. ❤❤❤
All my toms are whoppers this year, not complaining but surprised. I was wondering, if you put manure on your beds, what do you do with your homemade compost? It’s has felt really Autumnal this week up north but excited about the up coming stew season🤣
Morning Jessie, Where do you buy your Baker Creek seeds from is there somewhere local, or do you get them sent from the USA ? The last ones I purchased from USA - a fantastic choice and some free seeds too. I saw your photo with Hannah in this month's edition of Kitchen garden magazine. Take care look after Mum. Xx 🌶🍐🥬
Jessie, if you put dry bean grains in the freezer for 7 days, then you can get them out of there, because the larva will die there in those days in the bean. And you can plant these seeds later. But it is important that the seed is dry before freezing. I'm about I have been growing beans for 20 years. Therefore, I am telling you a secret.

Twisted ankle...sounds like a German variety of runner bean. I'm sure you will live Jess 🥰
fabulous garden never fed up of seeing it
Wish i could garden that fast,.
Praying for healing for you and your mum ❤❤ at least rain is free watering 😊

Smart ❤
Yes! I cut top and bottom off water bottles and slide over transplanted seedlings. It also stops earwigs and roly poly bugs.
rolypoly = woodlice, earwigs dont actually harm plants, they pradate small slugs and ants,amongst others. @@sherry2836
What's a roly poly bug?
@@cew9837 A woodlouse, or leather jacket, they live in woodpiles'
Hi Jessie those tomatoes look Fantabulous, I have been growing Cobra beans for years and they never let me down, wishing you both a speedy recovery.... take care Steve
She is warming the seedlings. 🐱
AMAZING tomatoes 🍅 😊
I feel for you..I'm the clumsiness person earth..falling, over and onto things everyday. Even at night I manage to walk into the wall..
You were correct about the rain in Ireland,, we've had so much this summer I'm developing webbed feet 😅😅
Hope you are getting better Jess. Thanks for soldiering on to bring us another great video
Love to you and Mum ❤

Joy! I freeze the dry beans for 7 days ,(that kills all the beasties ) fare they can be stored in jars problem free 🙂
So sorry you hurt yourself, Jess. I hope you're getting to rest and be made a fuss of at least a little bit.
Our garnets also did the same. Twice the size as last yr. We grew sungolds and crimson blush.
Great video Jess, learned something new with the beans. Thank you.

I have used Cobra beans for the last four years and absolutely swear by them. I'm really glad you like them too.
I so wish we could get Greek Gigantes over here.🇨🇦
Shhh Will is hopefully sending me some Frances I’ll keep you posted ❤
You need some comfrey for the foot and neck Jess . It works surprisingly but you end up green.
Thank you. I really like that you offer ideas for cooking various vegetables! I’m enjoying the exploration of new to us veg etc and have found myself wondering what I’m supposed to do. At my age, I repeat the old standards and I need and want to try new things with my new garden.

The peppermint chard stalks look like sticks of rock. I have also not taken the bubble wrap out of the greenhouse for the same reason this year.
What a lovely episode. Those beans are on my list for next year. I adore butterbeans, so I’m sure I’ll like the Greek giganti. Not sure why it didn’t occur to me to grow beans for.. well ya know… the actual beans. 🤯🤣🙈

Do you blanch them before freezing? Or just straight into the freezer?

Enjoyable blog… as usual. Some nice looking tomatoes. Would be nice to know which you would recommend flavour wise.
Great vlog, Thank you. Can you tell me where to buy the Yorkshire Achocha please? Thank you so much :-) x
Thank you for cheering up my insomnia session 😂.

Nothing but rain in Scotland 😒
Always a joy! Next year I will put in a couple arches for runner beans and cucumbers. Already looking forward to it❤
Jess, we need to see an update of the pond!
I’m going to give garnet tomatoes a go next year, so many different varieties to try 😊
Hi Jessie hope your neck and ankle get better soon 🤦♀️ . Could you tell me where you get the wire that you use to arch over the beds from ?
Jen
I love you.
love watching all your videos Jessie and mum, can you tell me which battery strimmer you are using,?
Morning Jessie, Where do you buy your Baker Creek seeds from is there somewhere local, or do you get them sent from the USA ? The last ones I purchased from USA - a fantastic choice and some free seeds too. I saw your photo with Hannah in this month's edition of Kitchen garden magazine. Take care look after Mum. Xx 🌶🍐🥬
Where does Lil go in the winter does she have a covered area she lives in ?
Did u put new flooring down in the kitchen.
🌱🥂
What happened to your chickpeas?
Where can I get those green seed sowing trays and drip tray from at 35:44? Ive been reusing food containers from the grocery shop but its not great 🥲
Jessie, if you put dry bean grains in the freezer for 7 days, then you can get them out of there, because the larva will die there in those days in the bean. And you can plant these seeds later. But it is important that the seed is dry before freezing. I'm about I have been growing beans for 20 years. Therefore, I am telling you a secret.
Do you have to let the beans thaw out and dry once out of the freezer? (Before you put them in a jar). 😊
Whilst you are busy planning for winter, we are ramping up the spring planting for summer so are we ahead of northern hemisphere or are we behind?
❤❤❤🎉
what is going on with your leg?
Mazs ldicvles. Inh😊❤❤❤
