    This is the garden video I've been waiting the whole week for - I follow Huw Richards, Charles Dowding, James Prigioni, all the 'big' names, but Anthony is without doubt my favourite & most helpful TH-camr. Well done on another solid video, thank you so much 👍👍👍

      Thanks Glyn for the kind comments. Really glad that you are getting something out of my videos. Thanks for the support. Trying not to be too repetitive but it’s hard when I spend all winter growing caulies and broccoli 😀

    Great caulis Anthony. I pretty well give up on cauls as I never had any success. This year I gave them a go and thanks to some of your tips I harvested the first one last week. Cheers.

    • @sydneybackyardveggies9612
      @sydneybackyardveggies9612  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks. The key with caulies is that you need to try to plant them early in the season so that they still can take advantage of the warmth in the soils. In Sydney the soil can stay pretty warm up to late May but cools fast once June comes past. If you plant early enough the plants would put enough size so that they can mature in the cold weather

    Thanks for sharing. My coriander I planted in March isn't doing too well and doesn't seem to be growing as lush as yours!

      If it was planted in March look at Addison a fortnightly feed of liquid nitrogen fertiliser and make sure it is well watered

    Interesting observation about the winter solstice. Mizuna I started in late summer has started to bolt but lettuces started at the same time have not. Guess some are more sensitive to the day length than others.

    • @sydneybackyardveggies9612
      @sydneybackyardveggies9612  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah some plants are impacted more than others. My old man keeps telling me that parsley planted in late spring will only bolt once we move to September. Likewise parsley planted in March April will bolt at the same time. With my rocket I find it’s the same case if I plant a late round now they will bolt straight away. As you have said different varieties and plants have different tolerant to daylight changes

    Great video Anthony. Thanks for the tips about the coriander. I will remember to get them all in before the Winter Solstice next year. Do you grow celery in your garden? I always struggle with celery so would love to see this if you do! 🙂

    • @sydneybackyardveggies9612
      @sydneybackyardveggies9612  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I have grown celery in the past and it grew quite slow and was really stringy and strong flavoured and didn’t grow them again. I might try them out again next year. Plant them out in March would be my recommendation and add a lot of water and fertilisier

    Hi Anthony. Another great video. How do you store the heads & for how long please?

    • @sydneybackyardveggies9612
      @sydneybackyardveggies9612  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Craig I will take the heads in and give them a rinse and then let the water dry. I will then wrap in a loose paper towel and put in a plastic bag in the fridge. They will last up to 2 weeks in the fridge though ideally I would try to use them in the first 7 days to get the most out of then

    Hey Anthony, thanks for this video - so envious about your caulis (and brassicas generally). Question: how many chooks do you have and how large is their enclosure?

      Hi thanks for watching. I have 14 birds that live in a run 4 by 4 but I have a mid tier level where they roost and lay their eggs. I also extend their run using fence panels to let them out into the garden when the beds are empty

    Thanks Anthony, very straight forward 😁 how many weeks roughly does the coriander seeds need till full growth/ harvesting them? Thank you for your honest content! I have succeeded in growing broccoli's because of your advice and direction. 🥦😁 One happy gardner

      These ones I planted they took 3 months. Mum came back and told me that the plants were too large and that she wants them picked smaller so I will look at turning over the second planting in 8 weeks. It comes down to how warm the soils are. Now we are in the middle of winter the garden really slows but generally 8 weeks
