    Victoria plum tree....I have had trees struggle like that and discovered voles had tunneled under the trees roots exposing them to air out of my view....I would water but the water drained right away from the tree....turn your hose on full and poke it around the base of tree...if there are tunnels the hose will blow a hole into them....Add good compost and wash it down the holes... plugging the tunnels...check daily for new tunneling.....knowing the problem can help....once I figured that out, I kept on top of it repeating the process.With enough water the tree finally recovered and put new roots to support it...I belive the vole found a drier home.

    I've been a bit paranoid about aminopyralids too, but as I understand it, in contaminated soil, each set of new leaves will be more twisted than the previous... so if new leaves grow out normally, there is a different problem at work... as you said.
    Thank you for raising the issue. Hopefully, more gardeners will become aware... and help pressure farmers to stop using it on their fields.

    Greetings from Dunnellon, Fl. In the USA. Beautiful garden, I'm envious and delighted, all at the same time, lol.
    David the Good has been warning gardeners for several years about the aminopyralid damage which wiped out a good portion of his garden. Unfortunately, he was met with much resistance and name calling when he first started sharing about it's potential damage. I'm saddened by the fact that other gardeners are being affected by this condition as well, but glad to see others are starting to sound the alarm. So thank you so much for sharing the information.
    I truly enjoyed the tour, you have done such a wonderful job in your garden, absolutely beautiful. You can see the love you have poured into it as well as the hard work, although from my view, you are the loveliest flower in the garden, lol.
    Be blessed, stay safe, plant more, and thanks for sharing. 😎👍
    From across the pond, cheers !!!

    The garden looks lovely! I would love to have some cool days right about now, our heat index here in the southern US is in the 100's (F) daily now. All my bird baths have turn into planters over time, I like them better that way. I've done a lot of container gardening this year, my front porch is full of shade loving plants like hostas, astilbes, heucheras,impatiens and ferns (that will be transplanted into the ground this fall.) My potatoes (Kennebec and Pontiac red varieties) are ready for harvesting, a good harvest of cucumbers this year, many jars of garlic and dill pickles to enjoy later in the year. I'll soon plant my third session of summer squashes and now I'm waiting on the tomatoes and peppers to ripen.

    A most enjoyable and informative video. I garden for a private house, so its a mixture of everything that I look after. This year has been not easy at all, compared to last one but each year throws up it's own problems. The hot weather caused chafer grubs to eat most of the lovely lawn, but after treatment with nematodes and a reseed, it's looking great now. But my onions have onion thrips, causing curly deformed leaves...it's a game we will never win. I look forward to the next video, keep up the good work.

    • @homegrowngarden
      @homegrowngarden  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for watching Tina! Sorry to hear that your plum tree and greengage is affected too. I really think it's due to the prolonged drought. The ground has only just begun to recover from last summer! I hope you have some other summer fruits to enjoy!

    Hi you have an amazing garden. We have just been allocated an allotment in Nottingham and as new gardeners its all seems a bit daunting. Your videos have given us so many ideas. We think one of the main things that we will have to do is purchase a polytunnel similar to yours. I have had a look on ebay and gumtree and there is a minefield of polytunnels but not sure how good any of these are ! Can you recommend someone local.

    1) Use silicone sealant (pure, for aquariums, not the bathroom formula) for that leaking birdbath. Use alcohol and a brush to clean the crack, let dry, and apply a sealant patch in and overlapping the crack, inside and outside the bath. 2) Why no budlia (Butterfly Bush)?

    • @homegrowngarden
      @homegrowngarden  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for your tips but I just planted up the bird bath today 😅 I bought it second hand in that condition (grr!) and didn’t pay a lot for it so I didn’t want to spend too much time and money on repairing it.
      I have two buddleja, one near my gate and the other is at the back of the wildlife corner, near the fencing divide. It isn’t flowering yet so there’s no much point in showing it off. ☺️

    Great video. In regards to the contaminated compost, mushrooms may offer a solution. I would highly recommend the book "Mycelium Running" by Paul Stamets. Mushrooms have been shown to break down hydrocarbons in a lot of sources of pollution. Mushrooms such as King Stropharia can be grown on wood chip mulch and might lend a hand in this situation.

      @constanceb837 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@homegrowngarden Ah thank you - I hope so, I haven't been as consistent in removing many of the lower branches like you have mentioned to do, so I shall keep up with that from now on to get some height over the next month! luckily your strawberry plants are a lot larger than mine - I have been growing alpine strawberries from seed in doors, planted three months ago and they are still seedlings under 7 cms, and even some seeds have just germinated and are popping up now - is this ok? I suspect I certainly won't get any fruit this year and hopefully find a way to plant outside when it isn't too cold. Not sure if my slow growing plants is a me problem or maybe I need to look "better" seeds - any places you suggest buying them from for next year (like the heritage types)? Just wanted to say I always look forward to your uploads - they are super informative and your flower/foliage plant combinations are really beautiful, can't wait to see all your produce this year :)

    • @homegrowngarden
      @homegrowngarden  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @UCfpwD1HJtjBDWOIPhAOYSlQ Ahh yes, I would refrain from removing any lower branches until your plant is at least the flowering stage. If you are growing a cordon variety, keep an eye out for suckers in between the main stem and the leaves as the plant grows. Remove them to focus it's energy in upright growth. As for your alpine strawberries, that sounds pretty normal! Growing strawberries from seed can take a long time and for the first year or two they will be growing and setting down roots. I have never grown alpine strawberries but there are lots of varieties of heritage strawberry plants available from places like Dobies, Suttons and Marshalls and then you can easily multiply your stock from the runners. It may take a season for them to really get going though.
      Thank you so much for you kind words. It really means a lot and makes the long filming and editing process all worth it!

    Awesome! Cool.... just curious, why do you use those planters when you have in ground space? Isn’t it a pain watering all the time? I live in the city and use some planters in my driveway out of necessity, but I much prefer to garden in ground.

    • @homegrowngarden
      @homegrowngarden  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s a valid question! I grow my carrots in a raised bed filled with compost and sand. This soft mix helps them grow long and straight and won’t hit any stones which causes them to fork. The pots with all the flowers in is a creative outlet more than anything. Pots give you the flexibility to move them around, change the look and height easily. It also means I can have flowers on ground that isn’t the ideal conditions. Behind the seating area for example the ground hasn’t been cleared from ivy and brambles yet! Almost all of the terracotta pots I picked up for free locally so it came at no cost ☺️

Leavecurling can be caused by herbicides but then they are also very deformed.vegcropshotline.org/article/tomato-leaf-curling/ Different oxhearttomatoes i have grown always looked a bit deformed as well, but thats just how they look.Your garden is very nice !
