Hi, love love love your videos! can you please suggest the best fruit and veg to grow + harvest for each month. As a newbie gardener, Im not sure whats the best thing to grow and when in Manchester. Thank you in advance.
Your plots look amazing, so abundant. Please tell me your secret for the blueberries and how you get them to crop so much! Mine are in tubs, in a greenhouse, and although tasty, nowhere near as many berries as yours.
They need to be in very large pots, at least 70 litres. Make sure you have the correct compost (ericaceous) and they are slow growers and take a while to mature. You need a couple of different types for good pollination. I also wouldn’t keep them in a greenhouse. 😀
Hi Rachel, I didn't manage to make it to the allotment fete, I only live in Rowland Ave, but I had done my back in, I could hear the band playing and everything, but I couldn't have walked round the corner, so sorry I didn't get to meet you, I have got a tomato glut at the moment, I'm going to make chutney at weekend, I still can't walk too far but I'm getting there, the weather has been quite wet this year and it's been a job just keeping the weeds down, I've only done tomatoes and strawberries this year, I get the foxes too they have dug holes at the bottom of the garden, and they have taken one or two wood pigeons, but I have to say I do love them they are beautiful creatures, although the dog might disagree, love the vlogs xxx
@@suzannehughes8697 hope things settle for you. If you fancy a look around our community plot is open Saturdays 11am if you contact the ground by email :)
