VEG GARDEN TOUR 🌱 July in our No Dig Vegetable Garden || How to Start a No-dig Veggie Garden

Well done guys, your garden looks great. Ye keep inspiring me.
I’m happy with some vegetables this year , but my polytunnel crops are not great. My melon has plenty flowers but no sign of a fruit forming…
carrots are so hit and miss.I must try a special raised bed for them . Even my parsnips are uneven. None of my Gladiator seed germinated …bought this year????
How to videos in the autumn is such a brilliant idea. I, for one, will watch them all. Great time for them when planning for next season can start. Margaret, Cork, Irl

I have to admit this weather really is a tad meh, just had a day in London & it was 24 degrees which for me was just perfect. So far I’ve had no courgettes 😢but cucumbers are coming along & some tomatoes forming. But the warm crops are slower this year. Onions, carrots and parsnips doing well too. Had a couple of primo cabbage the size of footballs 🎉…as always love your channel & look forward to the series….oh immense onions

🥰

I would love to see your "how to" series. It would be a big help to me and I'm looking forward to them 🙂

You are doing great and as I follow you I'm having a good year too. So Thank you.

I'm a tad dissappointed not to have a live recording of you singing at your nieces wedding. Congratulations to them.

You have A Nice voice,
Here in the Netherlands its pooring down, Again

Bless you and Family

Your garden is emaculate and the brassicas just keep coming for you over there in your climate. Wish I could keep them going all summer but it's difficult here with the heat. I try though and I'm still planting brassicas that will hopefully survive and produce in the fall. And I do try and keep the lettuce going all summer by using shade cloths.

The heat loving plants are doing great here though. Picking tomatoes, eggplant, peppers and lots of beans including probably my first picking of limas. I harvested all my first potatoes and will soon prep the bed for my fall and winter carrots. My onions are all out now and curing in my shed and fall / winter spinach will eventually go in that bed. I'll probably try some arugula or radishes first in the late spinach bed to make use of the space since I won't plant spinach until Sep.

Thanks for showing your winter squash. Mine are much further along with my largest being almost the size of a basketball already. It looks like it will be ready to pick soon but I thought you should wait until fall so not sure what to do with it. I have three plants with maybe 8-10 squash coming in so have begun topping. Maybe I should plant later next year.

Look forward to watching the how to video as someone new to growing veg it be good to watch them been watching you for the last 8 months .

Love how tidy your edges are. Can you show everyone how you do it, keep up the good work

I’vebeen away at a wedding too in Norway. Sine being back I’ve finished harvesting my B-road Beens today 4 kg to share with my daughter and into my freezer for Christmas. I’ve sown some climbing French beans in there place – here’s hoping. I looked at my cauliflower and one head has blown and flowered I have butternuts planted but they seem to have stopped growing I’ve taken more spring onions and pickled some bulbs, I’ve harvested a few punnets of peas, and more strawberries I found some raspberries in a hedge so I grabbed them too and a few blackcurrants for a soft fruit dessert
. My poly is too cold but my beast is ‘on fire’ in fact the front door popped out it was so full. I emptied the contents and refilled it and strapped it. it was warm work. I planted some Pak Choi in the ground 😅and cleared my lettuces so I can sow more in my guttering arrangement I have fruit on my peppers but nothing o;the aubergines. Enjoying the successes disappointed at the losses. . Hoping with Mrs W for that Indian summer

Looking forward to your ‘ how to …… .’ videos. I think that’s what I need to help me grow my own veg. You said you sowed your carrots in April and you’re now harvesting, I sowed mine in February and they’re tiny – not ready at all, in fact the size is laughable, not sure where I have gone wrong. I have to say though, this is my first year so I suppose it will take time to get the knowledge of how to grow and I shouldn’t be so hard on myself.
Thank you once again, I am very jealous that I am not as good as you but looking forward to the day i will be as I keep watching you both. Once again thank you. Sharon

Got to admire your grass borders, how do you manage to keep them so pristine and so neat! You put Charles Dowding to shame….

Everything is looking so good 😍 Really thriving inspite of the weather. You're doing real fine. Thank you so much for showing 💞

WoW! Amazing squashes. Mine are still on the ground and looking quite poor. Hopefully they will get going soon. Same as my courgettes- a bit rubbish. My soft fruit has done well. I have harvested 4 sweet peppers and 5 cucumbers so far and they have plenty more on them. My aubergines have been slow but they have flowers on now. I have lots of different flowers in my kitchen garden and allotment. Earlier I had forget-me-nots, pulmonaria, foxgloves, and rocket I left to go to seed. Now I have penstemon, Astrantia, nasturtiums, alyssum and pot and french marigolds, and of course, Sweet Peas. I have had a huge harvest of garlic and overwintering onion, Toughball, which I grew for the first time and am so pleased with. My potatoes have done very well. Cabbages and calabrese have been amazing. So I can't complain about my lack of courgettes or slowness of aubergines and squash. Happy gardening to you both 🙂

Hello, I have a question, please.
I have 16 (4×4) multi-sown clumps of leeks in raised bed.
Do I need to spread them out or will they push away from each other naturally?
Thank you, Paul.
