    I think that big beetle was a Maybug 🤣 I also had one fly passed me the other day and it frightened the life outta me 💀 Your tomatoes are looking huuuuge!🍅 I also feel like I don't have enough stuff or variety of things to plant out 🤣 but I think it'll all come together in the next few weeks when everything starts filling out 🥰

    What I find good when doing small hoops is thin poles or bamboo canes then cut up old hose poles to put on top.then chuck netting over. Also this might work on your bean arch.😊

    There's a lot doing great !Brassicas hate heat and would be disastrous in a polytunnel whereas your squash or courgettes would love it .I think your planting way way too much Amie but good luck 🙂

  • @helenstewart2085
    @helenstewart2085 7 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Every year sow peas, but the sparrow's in my garden in New Zealand are viscous, eat brassicas, lettuce, chard, spinach, have dust baths when every carrots and beetroot is sown. All is netted. Have had a tunnel house since the middle of our summer, have sown some in there, as our summers can be too hot and winters too cold.

    My poor chard has leaf miners 😢 most likely my own fault I planted it in the same spot as my beets last year that had it 🤦🏼‍♀️. I will have to sow again in a different place. Oh I need to sow more spring onions. I potted on my squash to allow them to get a bit bigger (slugs are everywhere 🤬). Glad your carrots germinated and things are going fabulously.

    My bank holiday Monday was used up watching all of your videos, and what a joy they were to watch. You seem very comfortable in front of the camera and your videos are very well put together, well done Amie 😁 Looking forward now to the next update from from your vlog. I've just started out my own channel, and I wish had your video making skills! A tip for you regarding grow lights, your lights look like they are too far away from the plants especially the smaller ones, which I suspect is why they're stretching out the way they are as there isn't enough light reaching them. Now that you've planted out your tomatoes, you should be able to get more light to the remaining plants which will help them. What type of growlights are you using?
