I am a simple person, I see Real Seeds packs on the thumbnail, I click and watch the video 😁 the algorithm brought me here so I've not seen other videos, but one thing I like to see is people explaining _why_ they're growing or choose to grow the varieties they do. From looking on Real Seeds I can see why you chose the Kyoto Market spring onions from their description but other stuff would be useful Plans and designs, changes and alterations, and a seasonal or yearly review of what went great and what didn't go so well would also help because you get so used to things over time that for a newbie it's not always obvious why your decisions are the way they are Happy growing! I have almost all the seeds I need, I just need a garden to plant them in
@positronixartandlife4545 Thanks! That's really useful feedback. The reason I went for Kyoto Market was because I had seen other videos showing how spring onions grown in Japan have a more substantial stem. I will take you advice on board. I'm glad a fellow Real Seeds enthusiast stumbled across my video. Any varieties you have particularly enjoyed from them?
@@ebenezercottagegarden see now that's some fun and useful detail 🙂 I also noticed that they're bunching which means there's the potential to dig them up, split them apart, and replant them to get even more from a sowing Sadly I've not been able to grow too much in my circumstances but the Wautoma cucumbers I tried grew well, as did the Charmette petit pois (sadly looking on their site, the peas are out of stock); for this year I've grabbed the Jacobs Cattle Red & Gold drying beans (even if they're not to my tastes they are gorgeous looking beans and I plan on growing and seed saving anyway), Paul & Becky's Asturian Tree Cabbage (as a cut and come again cabbage), their breadseed poppies, and Diamond aubergine I also have some cima di rapa/broccoli raab (being half Italian, I'm presuming I don't need to tell you what that is 🤭) from seeds of italy as they offer the 40, 60, 90, and 120 day varities. I'd definitely recommend checking them out if you've not done so as they offer a _lot_ of options, including a bunch from the Alpine region which means they shouldn't struggle to grow in our colder UK climate
@positronixartandlife4545 yes I love cime di rapa. I have some of the 120 day variety growing in my greenhouse. You can see me watering them in the opening mintage for this video. I'm probably going to do a cooking video with them in the next couple of weeks. I'm waiting for the buds to appear.
Thanks so much for your comment. I'm glad you found my channel. Good luck with your onions, I would love to hear how you get on. Do you post gardening videos, too?
I'm such a failure at onions from seed. Always have been! So much more lovely varieties though. Best of luck with yours. I stick to sets for all my onions (storage, bunching, and green onions) as I rely heavily on my onion crops. Happy New Year Lawrence.
@@Allotment-of-the-Dead organised is the plan (hopefully). I have the notepad and pen next to me now. I have a few ideas so far. Thanks for watching. You're not far off 1000 subs now 😀

Doing onions from seeds this year too, good luck!
@adamosman2142 Thanks, Adam. Which varieties are you growing?
Love the real seeds plants!
@@doom7998 they are so good, I need to do an order for this year. Do you have any suggestions?
Vespa field beans - small broad beans very prolific
@henrybartram6040 thanks, happy growing.
Just found your channel I've been sowing my onion seeds over the last couple of weeks

I struggled with it for a few years, too. I always have some sets as backup, too. Happy gardening 😀
Nice to be that organised to sit with a pen and paper, I'm way too fluid, making it up as I go along! lol. Excellent video buddy!

@@ebenezercottagegarden You're poretty close too. Only thing I really organise is the chillies, everything else is a chaotic mess usually. lol.
@Allotment-of-the-Dead oh well, if it works, it works! 1000 will be a nice milestone to hit.
Happy New Year Lawrence here’s to a fab growing season 2025 🎉, Ali ☔️🥶🇨🇦
@myrustygarden Happy New Year, let's hope it's a good one 👍
It'll be me next weekend - just planted my chillis this weekend.
