    Love the flag bit! Good job saving that bird. Slugs rampant this year. Makes sense about the mild winter. Tomatoes looking healthy. Another great video all. Love this channel ❤🙂

    Happy birthday Hannah 🎉 great video, guys, thank you for rescuing the little bird 🐦 . Your plot looks amazing and everything looks Happy. I hope your swedes survive the slugs. I have my swedes in a half barrel raised bed table. looking forward to your next video ❤

      Tysm! Fantastic idea about the barrel. Hope you get a bumper harvest! We resorted to slug pellets alongside the beer trap today. Luckily got lots more seedling on the way so hopefully we can replace the losses 😊

    Maybe you can have a cooking segment once you harvest some of your garden. How would you cook golden beets?

    • @AllotmentFamilyDiary
      @AllotmentFamilyDiary  7 месяцев назад +4

      We sure will! Han will be cooking at the plot with our produce very soon - keep an eye out for that! The beets are great roasted, fried or even eaten raw in a salad. They have a less earthy taste than regular, purple beets 😊

    Happy painting birthday 🎊 🎉. Last week flip flop 🩴 and shorts 😢 this week cold and wet 🤷‍♀️. Great job on the rescue 👍 I think I live in a parallel universe 😅 I had a bird fly in my shed yesterday, they are after the bedding covering the strawberry pots. Just have to get some slug pots out too they decimated my tomato plants. A fabulous update as always have a super week ahead, Ali 🌧️🇨🇦

    • @AllotmentFamilyDiary
      @AllotmentFamilyDiary  7 месяцев назад +2

      I would live in shorts and go barefoot wherever possible - I do most days in summer, but tender on the feet what with the new plot not being finished haha. Saw you had slug attacks too, hopefully they'll reside a bit soon as the weather warms up, but always be on guard! Thanks for watching, Ali. Hope you have a great week too! (Tommy)

    I enjoyed the video👍 you can use tomorite tomato feed on strawberries it is high in potassium and helps any flowering and fruiting crops and is a liquid feed 👍 Slugs are little bast*#

    The netting you had on a roll - would you mind sharing where you got it from or what the name of it is? 😊

    • @AllotmentFamilyDiary
      @AllotmentFamilyDiary  7 месяцев назад +4

      The white stuff is from Amazon - TreeGarden Insect Mesh Netting 10ft x 32ft (3m x 10m), Wohohoho (manufacturer - I know, what a name!). Hope this helps 😊 If you mean the green netting, I’m not sure where it was from as it was some old stuff Tilly had laying around.

  • @alicecowan3499
    @alicecowan3499 7 месяцев назад +3

    I love seeing your videos and all that you do with the bamboo canes. Do you get the longer ones from Amazon? I can never find them locally

    • @AllotmentFamilyDiary
      @AllotmentFamilyDiary  7 месяцев назад +3

      Tysm for watching! Glad you are enjoying our content. If we don't have any old ones left in our supply, we usually get 2400mm canes from our trading shed (a shop for allotment holders located on our site). They are 50p each. I believe most garden centres sell them for slightly more than what we pay, although I've never bought any from Amazon. I'm sure they're great though! (Tommy)

    Hi 50 years ago I noticed that the foot stomachs dont live in the nettle and bramble patch so now i use chopped up nettles and brambles as a mulch also leave them wild around my 5x5 brassica tunnel happy gardening as always Richardx

    • @AllotmentFamilyDiary
      @AllotmentFamilyDiary  7 месяцев назад +2

      Love the term 'foot stomachs' haha. That's really interesting about the nettles and brambles. Tilly has tried dried brambles but perhaps we need to lay down more. Will certainly look into this as our neighbour has an abundance of them. Thanks for watching, and also for the tip!
