I have never seen such a beautiful allotment! How big is this plot?
You are absolutely amazing!
I think you should be a teacher in growing vegetables.
Mike from UK in
Bulgaria
Hi Mike this plot is 75 foot wide and 195ft long
That is 10 times larger than my allotment I had in the UK!
I now have about 1000 m2 less what the buildings cover. I find that a challenge just to clear.
Again, you have done wonders with you land.
Keep up the good work.
😊
@@simplifygardening Flippin' 'eck mate, that's huge!
I had a full size (10 rod, 30'x90') allotment back in the 80s & it fed four of us plus stuff for neighbours for 9 months of the year in regard to fruit & veg.
These days, I have 11'x50' including the greenhouse & compost bays - still expecting to get more than 250kg off it though & without too much effort. On the waiting list for a half plot from the council, mostly for the fun of growing & then my garden will just be fruit & flowers.
Hi Tony,,
How do you find time to look after 3 allotment plots and get so much work done? I'm rapidly heading to 70 years young and struggle to find enough time to get everything done I want to do,,, there again, I only do 3 to 4 hours a day (weather permitting) as I've found that doing a little, often, is better than doing a full day at a time and then being knackered for a couple of days afterwards. You have a fabulous setup and a lot of time saving jobs already completed like the watering systems, thanks for all the videos you put out, they are very inspirational, thanks again!
Each of us has limitations and we work around them whatever they be
That Peach Tree looks fantastic in the big tunnel T... Great Addition 🙂
Thanks so much 😊 Pal
@@simplifygardening LOL... Tour My Hero!!! ;-)
Take Care Bro!
ATB FROM EDEM... ~Guru M~
@@thelittlefarmersfarm5706 Cheers Pal you need to come back down this year and take a look at the changes upfront from what you remember
I love watching my garden grow a little each day, that is my favorite part of gardening.Thank you for sharing your garden videos so now I can watch your garden grow too! Your garden is so inspiring! I love it so much I started filming garden videos too. I am in my 3rd year of gardening and still have so much to learn. I hope we can learn more from each other!
Thanks for the garden tour, mate. Looks like you're almost ready for another successful season. Your planning and preparation are good examples to follow.
Thanks Scott. This year needs to really be on point. No illness hopefully and all the pics and footage I require for the next book and course
Hugs for your beloved bugies. Happy they have a lovely spot.
Looking good Tony can't wait to see how you get on this year 👍 🏴
You and me both!
The most interesting and productive allotment I have come across.
Thank you Lea 😀
Wow impressive Roobob that’s one hell of a cold frame more like a cold hotel 😂😂. Hopefully the weather starts cooperating and we can all get that much needed gardening fix in the sunshine. Nice to see Danny and share work with other gardeners we are a bunch of nice people 😂😂. Potato support video will be cool to see. Thank you for sharing it all looks fantastic 🙏☮️🇺🇦🌻
You and me both!
An enjoyable tour mate and your hard work has definitely paid off. Proof there is no excuse for having a plot looking like an abandoned field. It is well laid out which will repay you in years to come. Congrats on breaking 300K subs barrier... Nice one Tony!! 😀👍
🌻🌻Nigel.............MuddyBootz Allotment🌻🌻
Thanks mate. That’s how you do it. Lots and offer 😂😂😂😂😉
Wow Tony your Garden Plot is very impressive. I find your videos very inspiring 🤗🇨🇦
Thanks Joanna I am glad you are enjoying them
Looking good Tony.
Need to pull my finger out and cover my tunnel if only a quarter.
Here's to some good weather.
👍
Yeah Dan get it sorted pal you need that later this year.
Awesome plot, no idea how you find the time to manage it but glad that you do because we get to see your great videos.
Lots of work . Thanks
Tony your plot is enormous, it would be lovely to do a view from above if you can get your hands on a flying machine (sorry minds gone blank) always evolving and such a lot of work such a huge growing space, it will be a full time job, are you going into selling like Charles Dowding. The blossom on the peach and apricot trees is beautiful. I sincerely take my hat off to you not only for having such a great allotment but taking time to post videos. Thank you Tony. I hope the burial went ok, I recall doing the same with my children many many years ago.
Got one on order Tassie girl
We can’t sell anything we grow on allotment s as it’s against policy
GM Tony ☕️☕️. You my friend have a double FULL TOME job 👍. You are such an inspiration to many of what can be done. Thank you for the tour. And I Love ❤️ the bed headboards?? In the garden. Adds some different decor 😉
Much admiration from Nevada USA 🇺🇸. 👵🏻👩🌾❣️
They are great for holding up netting and fleece
Looks absolutely beautiful, Tony! Do neat & tidy & organized. I'm looking forward to your upcoming videos: I rely on your wisdom for my garden. Thanks for the video. 🤗
Lots to come deb
RU BARB LOL! My condolences to the kids. It's hard to lose a friend.
Yeah they were upset
It never ends. Seems as you go, think it's sorted, a better arrangement rear's
it's head. All while trying to get seeds and plants sown and it begins again.
Gardening is not for the timid nor the pessimistic. 😊
TŶFS, Lookin' good Tony.
Gardening is for those who wish to lose themselves in its beauty
Hi Tony, looks like you are almost there and ready for the season, you have got alot done this winter! 🙂
Yes not much left to do now
Tony it looks superb, a lot of work gone into getting to where you are with it. Well done, thanks for the walk around.
Thanks 👍 Its getting there
Very interesting video, you got a lot of work going on. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Sheila
Thanks for tour and everything looks very organize. All the best for new season and alot to learn from your channel for new gardeners like me.
Your welcome and hope you have a great year
Hi Tony, great video without of information onball your plants and compost too. Lovely tour and its looking really good, looking forward to seeing it throughout the season. Thanks for sharing and take care 🙂
Glad you enjoyed it
It looks so organised and productive, jealous! 😃
Taken time to get to this Karen it doesn’t happen over one season
Great video Tony. I’ve been doing similar things at my allotment but in north east Scotland we are just a wee bit behind you in the growing season.
It’s always great to see what you are doing .I’ve learned so much from you.
Thanks a lot.
Glad it helps you on your plot Michael
Great tour tony, i was out in my small garden for 5 hours today, and my roubard i can see now.
garden great for my mental wellbeing , you just got to love being out in the garden.
Hands in the dirt my friend
Your poultry should enjoy the duckweed you have in the pond. It's a pretty useful food source for various things, as well as good compost. I recently pulled a few liters worth out of my home aquarium and put it in my vermicompost bin and the worms are loving it.
Thanks for the tips! Maybe my worms can have it
I'm glad I'm not the only one sorting out my garden this month. No more frost where I am in England so all my bok choy, lettuces a tomatoes go outside
I wouldn’t write the frost off yet
Looks great Tony. Really tidy. Early Spring here (so far). I like your polytunnel set up. Really organised.
It’s getting there Dan
This land is looking fantastic Tone... A real inspiration to us all pal... Stirling Work!! I look forward to the new seasons journey this year brother.
ATB From The Eden Plots!
~Tony M~
Gonna be a great year mate
Thank you for the fantastic tour Tony, plots look great and inspiring, happy growing season!.Sami
Thanks Sandrine
Great video Tony.
The last time I saw _Gunnera_ was up at Drummore botanical gardens on the mull of Galloway.
It was big enough to walk under...
Exactly what I want
I'd love to hear your take on soil blocks for starting seeds. Thank you!
I love the concept but trying to get the best consistency can be a challenge and messy and time consuming
I love all the progress
Thanks Rene
Omg it's huge. Didn't realize how huge it is. No wonder it's a full time job.
Looks like you have loads of good things to come.
And I see why you have the moto that you have,you really do get back where you put in the work.
I thought I had been busy these last few days while it was dry... Now for 3 wet days,and I mean wet....I'm expecting to fill my 100L water butt we have put on the craft room in the garden. Hoping to have 2doen there but not been well enough to fit the 2nd.another day will come
Yes Cheryl its been raining here including the day this was filmed for the past 3 months pretty much
Hi, Tony. That’s quite a set up you’ve got going on. I can’t wait to see the production from your produce and flowers as the temperatures rise. Take care and thanks for detailing your set up.
Will be a good year Karen
I absolutely loved this tour Tony, it's great to see just how much you've got done this winter. It's all going to be so productive and look fabulous this year. Fingers crossed for good weather this spring and summer.
The winds in my area would tear up that plastic
We can but hope Liz 😀
Very nice to se your 'little' plot. The greenery in your pond was duck weed I suppose, they are a really good source of protein for fish, and useful in the compost too 😊. When it comes to the algae growth on your tunnel, just use some vinegar on it, that will sort this problem. At least it did on my greenhouse roof. My banana has pulled trough this winter, but in the greenhouse I have to admit, too cold here during winter for keeping them in a cold greenhouse or tunnel. Today it was -4.5 C, but sunny, so will probably rise to well above freezing today.
Thank you Kenneth Its crazy atm my memory is all over the shop. I could not remember it was called duck weed
Looking great Tony, I'm jealous. Looks like duck weed on your pond, it will completely choke the pond if you let it as I'm sure you know. Makes a great addition to the compost heap though!
Good luck for the growing season ahead!
Yes it is I couldnt think of the name lol
You're so organized Tony. I need to catch up and get some seeds started. Covid stopped me but on the mend now and cant wait to get stuck in. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe x
Covid knocks you for 6 Ann I’m still struggling with energy
Hi Ann he is indeed very organised I wish you speedy recovery my friend. Stay safe and grow well don’t overdo things. Slow and steady wins the race. Healing hugs from me and the feathered ones 🌺🤗🦆🐔🌺
@@simplifygardening take things easy Tony keep strong 💪 and safe Ange and the feathered ones 🤗🌺🦆🐔🥕🪴
Just incredible!!!!
Awesome plot! Definitely gardening goals right there.
Thank you 😅
It was a pleasure to help you mate. Looking forward to returning. Always around the corner if you need help, you know that. Can't wait to see your plot in the summer. Danny
Will need to be good need pics for the second book mate
looks absolutely amazing
Thanks Chris
You are going to get some awesome results this year Tony with the work you're putting in. Can't wait to see :)
Let’s hope so
This video is very helpful to me because of the things it inspires me to do. Hopefully tomorrow is our last frost so I can get some things in the ground and finish my poly tunnel.
Good luck
Thanks Tony for the great tour and plans for your plots. It looks amazing take care.
You need a rabits tail for pollinating the peach tree....I saw the old guy on the Victorian Kitchen Garden series....back in the late 1980's do thus...
Oh that would work but so does the brush and no rabbits were lollies in the making of this video 😂
Great video mate,spot on all looking good 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
You've done loads your garden looks amazing. Sorry to hear about your children's budgie. I loved buying them and training to do tricks and teaching them to speak. It breaks your heart when they die.
We are down to one now
Ok you won me at 'dalek' style bins😜💕
Glad you picked up on that
Hello Tony, thanks for the plot tour it is looking superb! I will be using your container grown potato method this year so will be revisiting your previous video on how best to do it. Take care, Ian.
Great stuff Ian you will not be disappointed
It looks beautiful and ready to grow! I have two meters of snow in my backyard. 😭 No outdoor growing here until late next month at the earliest.
Oh wow that’s a lot of snow. I’m happy to be ahead this year
It's all looking great Tony it's been a busy time for you and whoever 'we' is i presume is Tina and your family. Very jealous of your plot oh well, maybe one day i'll actually have a garden.
Stay Safe,
Barry (the Wirral)
Cheer Barry
You've made some serious progress, nice work. Glad you got some fresh woodchips 😭😭😭
Always helps mate
Hi tony. Its Great to see your plot looking so good , I'm going up my allotment on the weekend to start doing a bit. my husband Andy would normally have done this but he has become unwell and not able to do much now but he likes to watch, its very difficult for him to do anything. but he lovers watching your video and been a follower of yours for a long time. anyway thanks for video and keep safe.
Best of luck! I am sure you will do wonderful. I hope Andy manages to get better soon, I know how bad things can be.
Thanks for sharing your tour Tony. Just before the end you said, "so, we're pretty much sorted!"😁 You're a hard working guy, I almost needed a lie down just watching! I'm too old for that level but I've learned a lot from you this past year, glad to have you back.
About what height from the ground will you put the supports for your spud leaf growth please?
About 2.5 ft
Wow Tony. So many changes and looking really really organised and smart! I just wish I had as much room as you do, proper green finger envy! Lol.
Still as ever with any gardening project, plenty for you to have a go at and finish off, so the best of luck pal, I'm sure you'll make a fantastic job of everything just as you always do!
Phil 👨🌾👍
Thanks Phil lots to do but ahead
@@simplifygardening absolutely. My dad always said to me, get up and get on with it! . Be good too see your progress through the year. Looking forward to it.
Lots going on Tony at this time of year on our allotments...Steve...😃
Sure is Steve
cracking video tony
Cheers Steven
Garden’s looking great, Tony!
Thanks Phil
It looks gr8!. How many staff do you have Tony? Lol
Lol just me
Hi Tony such experience you have to inspire us new growers.. I am curious about the newblack hoop with Rods pushed into some of the beds... Can u share links if things u buy to make the garden structures pls including this new one, to help us plan better as new starters.. Thanks in advance.
Those are head and foot rests from bed frames I have repurposed them
@@simplifygardening wow.. What an idea. Cool 😁
Very organised and great layout, loved the tour :) I was wondering if you could help. I am just creating another two raised beds in an area that was lawn. I have heard you can get wire worm in the soil where a lawn has been and that they can cause a lot of damage to root vegetables. I was thinking for this first year of planting in these new beds would i be best avoiding root veggies, potatoes/carrots/parsnips etc to avoid any damage IF there are any wire worms or is there some way of telling if you have them?
Get them leeks in a beef stew fella..🤣🤣👍👍👍
Indeed or leek and potato 🤗
They are coming out shortly
@@simplifygardening yumm I love leeks I have blue leek. To get in. But I’m on it. Just so much work for one silly old duck keep. Lol the things I’m building everything seems to take so long Or is it that the things I plant grow well
And the place I need to grow
Them isn’t ready. Also could you recommend a ground irrigation system for the tunnel please 🙏 thanks Tony grow well and stay safe my friend Ange and the ducks
About 3:30 time stamp that scarecrow..it moved...I saw it.
Ha ha you never seen Worzel Gummidge before then? He suppose to move
I'm surprised you didn't use the budgie to fertilise the tomatoes or something... ;)
Assalamualaikum mashAllah so nice sharing.
Thanks
What interresting guided tour at your garden you did in this video🌹. Its great and its very interesting to follow for me who is trying to learn . What temperature do you have in polytunnel Now? I live in Sweden an have had -5C in my tunnel but i have some wintersowed pakchoi plants and salad growing there now. And cale..Early yersey wakefield... Im wonder if I can get onions and put in plugs like you or if it maybe are too cold here? Idont want them to get to make flower.. 🙂
It’s about 1c overnight
Have you a video on carrots and parsnips? by the way just watched your lasagna bulbs video absolutely love it will definitely try it
Will be doing those shortly. Those bulb pots are still going
@@simplifygardening can’t wait to do mine probably to late for this year though
This all looks fantastic! How do you start a new allotment though? With rich hard soil and lots of weeds 😬 We just got one this week and I don't know where to start
You need to remove the weed and then add compost over time, grow green manures in winter
An amazing job Tony x
Thank you Katie
Yes then Tony 👍👍👍
Yeah pal
You’re wearing the same shirt in this video as the potato video a year ago!
Hi Tony, where do you source your woodchip from?
We get it from local tree surgeons
Inspiration
Thanks
I have noticed that my favourite gardening creators are not displaying the date under the videos anymore, have youtube done this?
Yeah they are changing things atm
@@simplifygardening thanks.
where do you get those big blue water containers?
Craigslist or fb market place
When it best time to plant carrots outside
You can plant anytime now if you fleece
Look up when your last frost is. Grow the carrots until they have well established roots and then plant them
I don't know about that roobob plant 😅😅😅
😂😂😂
Happy Thumb 750 BTW 😜
Thanks 😅 Ta ta :)
