Here's the deal about making compost. Don't overthink it, don't obsess about it. As long as you get a general mix of green/brown it doesn't matter. You don't have to be exact.
ooohhh Rocky to the rescue, bless that sweet soul!
Rocky is such the talker, so sweet
Best to mix the top soil with the compost as it will bulk it out. Top Soil doesn’t have anywhere near as much goodness as compost but is fine if mixed with it.
Ah great advice thank you! I’ll do that when I use them to mulch over some of the beds x
Loved this one emma,your humour,spot on ❤️🌹🪻🌻
Hiya Emma Thankyou for the visit. Blessings luv southern Ontario Canada 🇨🇦🐝
I adore your humor 😂. Thanks for taking us along. 🫂 Good luck with the camera. 📷. Hope your day gets even better. 🥦
That’s what you need on your veg gardens Manure. You will definitely get crops next year if you just plonk that on top of your beds and rake over. 👍❤️👍
I’ve been making compost for a couple of years, it’s very satisfying! You should get a wheelbarrow or two of wood chips and manure to help with your compost
Beautiful brassicas, Emma!!! The snails and worms have completely destroyed mine...oh well, there's always next year. Love seeing Rocky!!
Exactly, always next year. And mine haven’t made it to the finish line yet! 😂
Absolutely make your own compost Emma, you’ll love the process and results 👌
Thank you !
Pleased to see you are getting the hang of gardening and that if you (or me )grow anything consider it a bonus 😂
Oh yes!
If you're looking at starting up your compost heap try planting a bed of Comfry but use the Bocking14 strain as this won't seed as it can become very aggressive and take over, the leaves make fantastic fertilizer also are great compost accelerators ir you can just throw the leaves on the ground as a mulch as they break down quick. Plus Bonnie and Clyde for the scarecrows
I still think Hanzel and Gretel for the scarecrow😂😂😂
Homemade compost, can't beat it!
Hi Emma. Best not to push your onion sets straight into the ground, you may damage the basal plate (where the roots come from). Make a hole first. Also you can plant them deeper, so just below the surface (hiding them from the birds) and trust me they will grow and sit on the surface like you would expect. I have found that planting Onions in the Autumn are more prone to run to seed than planting in the spring. So I only plant in the spring. Yes it is nice to get stuff in the ground this time of year but I just do garlic over winter because they need the cold to split properly.🦊
Scarecrow names.. Rosie & Jim 😍
My pumpkins and sweetcorn here in Coventry were great this year, I chuck everything thats finished in the compost bin and seems ok, the squirrel however finished the last of the sweetcorn off😢
Emma & Rocky 😊
the Range are selling 4 x 50lt bag of compost for £10 good quality
Don’t have one near me down south! I dream of going to a b&m one day 😂
I love that word “discombobulated”
See you soon ❤
Emma I spend ages throughout summer cutting off the sweet pea tendrils cos as you said they hinder the flowers even strangle them tbh wish you luck keeping them going until the first frost 🤞
Fantastisch Good work Emma's you the best te moostiun te planting te uien thans te video Top week grootjes 💐🧤🏵️🌰🥦🐈🐿️☕🌻
If i were the one that has to buy a camera i would go for a gopro. They can take water and have clear picture quality and the sound is perfect. My daughter does most of ger youtube vlogging with a gopro9
Thanks for the suggestion! X
Reading all names from last vlog. My vote would be either Dug and Daisy or Lottie and Don 🎉
I probably use an onion each day, so I’d need over 300 onions to last me a year!
Cute to see a squirrel I think they’re so cute but they can potentially create havoc with crops. I’m fortunate I see the odd one in my home garden but not at the plot ….yet 😂
We have hundreds 😂
@@emmasallotmentdiaries 🤦♀️ well cover everything 🤩. We have pigeons & they are so distrustive. Eat everything Hey ho we all have our nemesis. I just cover all mdd we crops
Love the little scarecrows, how about calling them Clive and Celia or Bertie and Gertie x
The onions are Senshyu semi globe yellow, a really delicious Japanese variety which will be ready early June.
What were you using to film seeing as your camera is broken ? Whatever it was the picture is excellent . Google error 60 on the Canon website and fix the problem yourself.
PS you put the second onion in upside down after lecturing us on how to do it correctly 😊.
Thanks again for all the laughs and entertainment Emma, now go and get some of that stable manure before its all gone .
Thanks Emma😊❤
Hello Emma, thanks for the video. May I suggest “Will and Kate” for the scarecrow’s names.
Love that!!
Greetings from Australia 😊 love your video's. With regards to your camera id stick with a Cannon if thats what you are used to filming with, also if the current camera worked well for what you use it for I'd get the same camera. If its an older model yoy may be able to get het a good deal on it as well.
Hello, been watching your videos for a while on and off and due to your videos I decided to start my own TH-cam channel about my allotment. Am looking forward to seeing your compost dairies as I have just been adding a mix of things to my compost will see what I get next season if anything. Keep up the great work 🎉
Amazing!! Best of luck with it. X
@@emmasallotmentdiaries thank you 🙏
Should call the scarecrows Laurel & Hardy coz theyre like you Emma, funny & a bit accident prone
Hi Emma, where did you buy your onion and garlic from?
You inspire me to get up to my allotment even in bad weather, thank you 😊
I wonder who Rocky belongs to and if the owner ever watches your videos to check out where he’s been for the day
😂 I would love that!!
Hey Emma,
Great vlog,,,
Just a little advice from my allotment plot association friend,
He is rhs qualified,,,
He advised me to plant my onions and garlic together xX
Ah ok, great to know thanks!
@@emmasallotmentdiaries you're welcome xX
And there are the names for the scare crows... gunion and arlic
You should call them Weasel and Gummidge
i would drink the stinging nettle brew with a slug sandwich for a million great film tonight thanks
Hahaha! Same! 😜
Oh my your day was full of really annoying things! I hope it got better (or you shut yourself off and screamed 😆)🌻Have you thought of Tilly and Tom for your scarecrows? btw when the weather turns properly don't forget to put them in the shed I've had one of those kind and he did not like the cold half of the year love light and laughter to you and yours xx
Hi. Love your video s . Do you sig up your dalia? Also I am going to try something dont know if you done it before. But I am collecting my big water bottles and milk jug and I will start some of my seed in them and after winter they be ready to transport outside as I don't have green house or space at home.
The milk bottle idea is so good! And I don’t think I’m going to dig up the dahlias. But I will mulch them! X
❤❤❤
Purely out of curiosity to compare with we we can get in NZ, what did the onion sets cost for how many? And do they grow 1 onion each or multiply. Starting onions like that is not something I've had the opportunity to do as yet .
Wise decision to split up the onions and garlic. If one gets rot the other might not.
My thoughts exactly! X
👍👍👍👍
Cyrano & Roxanne
Reach out to cannon they may help you.
seems to me that the squirell is in charge😅
Next year please do not dig out the weedy sweet peas. They need a bit of time to get started and then they suddenly takeoff.
Absolutely!! I need more faith in them! X
Bill and Ben
Hey Emma, how long have you had your broccoli 🥦 in the ground for? Just trying to gauge if any of mine will come 😂
Not very long. Since beginning of September and they were plug plants x
That compost is rubbish wouldn’t buy wickes compost stick to garden centre compost
Trump 2024! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
