    Oh good temp job on the shed guys 👍, it looks castle like with the bricks 🤭🤭. Hope it gets sorted before the snow comes. We had to redo our entire shed with a metal roof. Have a super week, Ali 🌧️🥶🥶🇨🇦

    Oh lord I have to wash my poly and get things cleaned before the snow arrives 😂. My apple tree gives me 🍏 1 a year. You still have some amazing harvests to come so good on you. Our garden is mostly done. Have a fab week, Ali ☔️🥶🇨🇦 Ps if you give me your first name I will mention you in my next video 👍, it’s important to promote each other

      Hi Ali, yeah its all go now this time of the year to get things cleared out, cleaned down etc before the new season starts. Thanks for the promo offer, it definitely is important to promote each other. I will do likewise the next time i'm up at the plot properly. Have a great week. - Matt.... The Unconventional Grower!

    Here the big pumpkin growers just let all the leaves die back in place and then they can see the pumpkins 🎃 so assuming the same would work for cucumbers 🥒. Def transplant the strawberries 🍓. Lots to get tidy at this time there’s definitely jobs a plenty. Have a super week, Ali 🥶🌞🇨🇦

    I can't believe you have tomatoes when is you 1st frost ours was today

    • @TheUnconventionalGrower
      @TheUnconventionalGrower 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah first real frost was on Friday. I though that the Cheery Falls variety that are not under cover would get caught by the frost but they seemed to escape any further damage. I'm not sure how long they will last but I'm hopeful for another round from those that are under cover.

    i had gooseberry bushes but the bloody sawfly attacked them all...

    • @TheUnconventionalGrower
      @TheUnconventionalGrower 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      1 of the gooseberry bushes suffered this year from that but also some of the red currants.

  • @myrustygarden
    @myrustygarden 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I’m surprised you still have tomatoes mine are all done and frozen. My carrots 🥕 were attacked by caterpillars 🐛 so I harvested them all. 😂 my pepper plant has flowers too but sadly we had pants pepper 🫑 production. Great update guys it’s all done well, Ali 🌞☔️🇨🇦

    • @TheUnconventionalGrower
      @TheUnconventionalGrower 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I find the Cheery Falls variety can go longer into the year, they are just about hanging on. I'm hoping to get another round from those that are under cover however I'm not that hopeful for the bigger variety (Alicante) ripening now that the temps are falling.

  • @myrustygarden
    @myrustygarden 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Fall is definitely clear, clean and feed the beds. I would probably chop the raspberries and give them a good mulch for next season. Good to be harvesting still. Have a great week, Ali 🌦️🇨🇦

    • @TheUnconventionalGrower
      @TheUnconventionalGrower 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That's definitely on the to do list! I've the black and red currants that require the same treatment.

      @MicroUrbanGardenWonders 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hello! It's true that this season is always busy, the pine trees have been working very hard all summer. Fall is here and it's time to clean up and prepare for the next phase. But I believe, the results will be worth it!” "Do you have any specific plans for the garden in the fall?"

    • @GanggangPeanut
      @GanggangPeanut 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@MicroUrbanGardenWonders no big plans but I will keep growing in the greenhouse 👍👍

    • @TheUnconventionalGrower
      @TheUnconventionalGrower 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @MicroUrbanGardenWonders I think for me Fall will about maintaining the structures that's in the plot, I have ideas on creating some larger fruit cages pending gaining approval from the council that own the allotment. Then of course its looking at what succession seeding can get done before winter truly sets in.

    Awesome to save seed isn’t it 👍, I try to do that every year. Shame about the covers plastic does not like the sun at all 😢. I have heard of eating flowers. It I just haven’t done it yet. Insane what plants do with some sunshine and being left to their own devices 😂😂. Great update harvests are fab, Ali 🌞🇨🇦
