Central France here and it has not stopped raining for months! Having success in the polytunnel but outside I am only able to grow slugs and snails !!!
Exactly the same in central germany 🐌
And exactly the same in belgium
And the same in the Netherlands 😢
I’m in western France and now I’m thinking of moving back to Australia. It’s just too cold grey and rainy
I am an organic gardener in the uk and like you the weather has been awful. Nothing is growing well this year and I haven’t seen one butterfly or a honeybee in my garden. I am convinced that it is to do with the geo-engineering that is being carried out without any consultation or consent from the populace. On the rare day you have a clear blue sky, keep a watch out for aeroplanes leaving a trail in the sky. There won’t be one trail there will be loads and the trails eventually merge together blocking out the sun. These trails are from commercial and private jets which spray out a cocktail of chemicals one of which is nano particles of aluminium. Now we all know aluminium is a neurotoxin - which affects the brain and causes dementia. Plants don’t do well in aluminium polluted soil either. Their excuse is that they are deflecting the sun to prevent global warming. This is happened worldwide. Climate control is a weapon, this weapon is used to create flood, wild fires, famine etc. if you think I am making this up, go to The Vobes on TH-cam and you will find plenty of info. Also try geoengineering.org You won’t find anything on google, try DuckDuckGo search engine. It’s time everyone became aware of what’s going on right under our noses.
Thank you for always taking the extra time to tell us the planting widhts in cm and inches❤
Indeed. It is appreciated:)
I love watching your videos! Not only do I learn something valuable about veggie growing every time, but I love your sense of humour too.
This made me realize its almost July and i have nothing close to harvest due to bad weather and slugs 😅 gonna put al my hope into an awesome autumn
It is hot here in Alabama with the heat index reaching 40C, and summer has just begun. I have potatoes chitting that will go in the ground in ten days. In about three weeks, I'll start seed starts for cabbage, and sow seeds for carrots and turnips. In mid August, I'll start seed starts for Nappa Cabbage, or Hilton Cabbage, brocolli, and cauliflower. It will be september before I plant boc choy and Yellow Heart Winter Choy. Finally, in October, I'll plant garlic cloves. Grocery store mystery garlic worked well for me, but Elephant Garlic was a bust. It did well until the temperature started warming up in March. I am harvesting peppers, tomatoes, squash, red noodle beans, and cucumbers on a regular basis. The heat hasn't slown the tomatoes in the least bit. They are still flowering and producing. I have cantaloupe and Sugar Baby watermelon on the vine. I just invested in hens, two Speckled Sussex, and three Rhode Island Red. They are about two weeks old. Their wings are fully feathered, and their tail feathers are coming in. Their hen house has been assembled. I have a 4 meter x 3 meter x 2 meter chicken run scheduled for delivery on Monday. Not only will I have eggs in the near futurer, I'll have plenty of manuer to add to my compost bins. The more I make, the less I have to purchase. I'm up to about 3 cubic meters a year.
The plants on my balcony are growing so slowly, it will be a miracle if I get one harvest this year. My Swiss Chard is well over a month old and still looks like week old seedlings.
Take it inside
I have yellow squash plants that have been in the ground since mid-May, and they might be a full two inches tall...very strange. I'm still watering them though, never give up! xD
Midsummer is the start of the growing season this year 🤣
I know what you mean! :-)
Been a cold year for me, 20 growing degree days behind last year. Had an epiphany that its about time to stop hoping for the summer crops and get ready for fall and winter 😂
Really hope summer and the global warming will soon give me the French climate i was promised!!
yep. it's cold in rainy in scotland!
you are kind of lucky lol. Its now over 100 where I'm at and I have to constantly make sure the crops aren't burning and drying out.
In the high desert climate where I live in Oregon , we have been experiencing the normal temperature extremes. 80’s F daytime temperatures that drop to low 40’s F at night . Then we had a three day Freeze warning June 15-18 and even though I covered , I lost my Zinnias and a few dahlias . Now it’s back up to 90 degrees F . And next week , the temp . Low drops back down to 39F . Makes me crazy
@@bobbilynnmiller742 I live in the high desert of SoCal and that sounds preferable in many ways. We will be in the 100s for most of summer and only down into the 70s most nights.
Howdy, Ben!👋 You are so encouraging! 😃
Earlier today, I put cauliflower, broccoli, and cabbage seeds into paper towels to sprout. It's time to start seeds for the fall-winter garden in Central Texas.
Happy Gardening!
Thanks, Ben for reminding me not to stop sowing and planting as the days slowly shorten to autumn.
I’d love to sow peas in June, but I’ve got 2 months of 100+ temperatures to look forward to so I might try sowing some in August.
Yes, best to wait until things cool off a bit. :-)
Planting cabbage is indeed a savoy idea.
I can definitely resist kale😂
I love that you love what you do and still can be silly
South coast of UK here, harvested my first potatoes with very successful crop. Grew them in 30l heavy duty buckets. No earthing up. My tomatoes are great, Swiss chard, peppers, chillies, herbs, garlic and onions ( harvested winter onions and garlic already).
Ps - due to climate change I’ll putting up bigger polycarbonate greenhouse to extent my growing season.
The carrot fangs were just what I needed 😂 I must check my bucket of spilt carrot seeds too!
Good morning Ben, thanks for the funny expressions, we need to be smart and alert to catch them, love those baby carrots you have growing, always new ideas and something new to watch out for. Asian vegetables are so much fun to grow, they are totally different in flavours and textures in comparison with other vegetables. Have a great gardening day. Many blessings.
Don’t mean to embarrass you, but… I think you are marvellous! I’m off outside now, to sow some seeds.
Oh wow - thanks so much! :-)
I'm also growing purple and blue lettuce, just starting the seeds. Hope they grow well 🌱
I have one of each of those kale varieties you picked to sow, both in the same 3 gallon container and they have been blessing me with fresh harvests all spring and summer and they probably will be around until winter by their looks
Thank you Ben, have a great summer!
Love the videos. You nearly killed me with the carrot fangs, I almost choked on my coffee.👍
He is rather adorable, isn’t he- love his dad jokes and enthusiasm 🙂
Haha - glad to have raised a smile! :-)
Carrots in containers reusing older potting soil? Awesome idea!
It’s been raining so much here in Minnesota, so I haven’t been outside and on top of pests. my bean seedlings have been demolished by beetles. I should try to sow them again, thanks for the encouragement!
When do you start your beans 🤔 if I may ask? I want to grow cream peas in a community garden next year.
Hope you manage to avoid the beetles this time round. :-)
Just harvested a bed of garlic and put okra and bush beans in. Working on harvesting a bed of potatoes but haven’t decided what’s going in there next.
I am in the process of harvesting my garlic. I have a 4x8 bed. I planted bush cucumbers in half and I am wondering what to plant in the other half. I may plant more bush beans. I also have potatoes ready to dig but will plant in that bed also.
Another fab video. Hope yourself and family are enjoying summer so far😎
Thanks so much. Summer has finally started here with warmer, sunnier days. :-)
I grow my pak choi in hanging baskets, thanks for the reminder I’ll sow more kale. Have a super week Ben, Ali 🌞🇨🇦
Interesting idea. I’m assuming the slugs don’t make it to them? What about flea beetles? I’ve given up because of the pests 😢
@@emkn1479 flea beetle live in the soil so if you can get some new soil this will help too. I have flea beetle and leaf miners 🤦♀️ so anything that gets things off the ground and in new soil helps. For the pests I will need to til the soil in winter (I’m in Canada so hopefully cold winter) and see if it doesn’t help rid some of the eggs and larvae
You're like the Alton Brown of gardening🎉 love your vids!
🏆🏆🏆
I adore that comparison indeed
Its been really cold in wales this year. I even had my heating on last week
We are very much behind this year. The peak of the growing season will take weeks.
Exactly if we can get there at all😢😅
Thank you for another enjoyable video ❤
Love these quick go to videos on what to sow next, useful tips and even how to cook. I’ve got packing Choi growing and had no idea how to eat it. Although something is getting to it before me, when planted in the ground. But I have some in pots in the greenhouse and nothing has nibbled them yet!
Slugs really do love pak choi, so do all you can to keep plants clear of the slugs.
Awesome Video Ben thank you my friend 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you for yet another lovely and informative video! Really brightened my day.
Your videos are always top tier and thanks for the great ideas! We're in the South of the USA so we're planting sweet corn, green beans, cucumbers, okra, and winter squash as our second harvest but your ideas here are perfect for the Fall. Cheers!
Thank you very much
Hi @GrowVeg, for slugs and snails I can recommend using coffee grounds, caffeine is a poison to them so they run away. Tested that and it works, plus, coffee grounds a rich source of nitrogen, different from DE it works while wet and you can get them free, if you are happy coffee (wo)man just empty your coffee machine into garden, but if not, ask your friends or check in nearby coffee shop.
And thanks for video, I was not able to plant anything in this season so far and was really down cuz of that so knowing what you showed here is very comforting.
Great tip - coffee has lots of uses! th-cam.com/video/ZQAEQMvEtA0/w-d-xo.html :-)
Thank you for another fab video!! ☺️☺️
The fact that you are growing peas means that my planting sweet peas later than I should have will not prevent them from flowering in the fall.
I sowed Kale in Spring (about 9 months ago for me in the Southern Hemisphere), and it's still growing on strong at the start / middle of our Winter here
Fabulous - it may even keep going longer! Great value crop!
Thank you, Ben, so much for these wonderfully inspiring videos! Grasshoppers have decimated most of my plants, flowers, etc., but I will start some Kale and Boc Choi soon and maybe they'll be gone by Autumn. My chickens eat tons of them but this is really like a Biblical plague this year...so glad you don't have them!!
I'm so sorry to read this. Some years just throw challenge after challenge at you!
@@GrowVeg thank you Ben, sometimes you just have to rest, let the soil rest, and try again.
Kale did really well for us last year. Really well.
Just harvested my spring potatoes. I plan to fill it with sweet potatoes. Thank for the reminder for the pak choy.
Ooh…must do that
Love all your videos, so helpful! Insane drought here in Virginia, U.S. Heat index of 100F. Seems I'm battling the sun. I'm definitely putting up shade cloth. But so far, Im not discouraged! First year gardener here! Can't even imagine the slug problems you have in the UK.
Hope you're enjoying your first year gardening - great to hear you're giving it a grow! :-)
thanks very informative
Great video thank you
In the Pacific Northwest things have gotten a really slow start because it's been pretty chilly. Yes our slugs have good taste, too! And a voracious appetite!
Been a very wet start here too. :-)
Another banger 👍👍
Great content as always, I always try and get a quick harvest of bok choi and spinach before the summer here in Toronto but it's always tricky!! A good tip if they bolt, just let them and collect the seeds after flowering to use next season :D
Additional to your recipe for bok choi, try honey and garlic. I absolutely love it cooked that way
Thanks Ben, The season is starting to come alive now 😎😎😍😍
Aye to that - at last! :-)
Despite being a pest that mouse was sort of cute especially doing his undercover work.🤣 I'm busy fighting the heat here in Florida but my curly kale is hanging in there and if my Red Russian managed to survive the heat, last year they perked up and were great through the winter. Glad to see you highlighting Kale that has become one of my favorite veggies and soo nutritious!!
Love kale - incredibly nutritious as you say. Keep cool over there! :-)
🐝thanks for the great video🌻
In N.Ireland,for some reason,my fruit and veg are doing great. I look at the grey sky and then to the plants and think, how can you be ar€$¥😂
Loved how u showed the endive seed to seedlings and beyond. You've gotta have it monster together to display all that😅.
Yes, all my PaK Choi went strait to flower.
So sorry to read this. Sowing from late summer onwards should see plant much less likely to flower.
Hello. Wishing you a happy and happy new day

And to you! :-)
@@GrowVeg thanks
I would love another crop of pak choy, but it's too darn hot here in Southern Ontario Canada. A couple of my cabbages are not forming heads, so I'd best get them out while they are edible. Then I'll have room for some carrots, a chantenay variety.
I had recently subscribed to your channel and been enjoying your videos. I live in North Carolina, USA. My climate is almost similar to yours. In USDA zone 8a as of the change to the zones in 2023. Was formerly in7b. Enjoyed the carrot teeth. It was a hoot.
Thanks so much Donna - and it's really lovely to have you subscribed! :-)
I tried Bok Choy for first time early under a low tunnel this spring and they turned out just great! SLO bolt Napa was a huge winner and one at 7 lbs. not enough time here to succession sow. Trying a cute baby Bak Choy this fall.
Starting fall starts tomorrow and found a winner cauliflower variety Fujiyama that is heat tolerant. I am using the two clay beds for the brassicas as they like heavy soil. And yes to bug netting.
Slugs: Susan in The Garden video shows using copper tape around PVC rings to protect plants. It probably wouldn’t be practical on a large scale, but she says it works and is reusable. I can imagine to keep leaves trimmed up as the plant grows also.
Thanks for the recommended varieties - good to know there are heat tolerant cauliflowers out there. :-)
Something I discovered this year. You can get pelleted carrot seeds, no more worries about thinning out carrots and carrot fly. It’s been a rubbish growing season this year, really having to baby everything along, hot to very cold weather caused everything to bolt
Hi. I learnt this too this year! Did you have difficulty getting them to germinate? I've got one show on mine 😢
@@rosepetal45 now you’ve said that. I haven’t had a single carrot come up, parsnip sown at same time got loads.
2:10 Labelling is under rated, but very important - I always thought I would remember what I had planted, but then forget completely.. 2 seconds to label saves hours of trying to remember later
Me finding radishes in the flower bed 😂😂😂😂
@@jenyoung2473😂😂😂 me planting on top of a place I already sowed seeds 😂😂.
Absolutely! :-)
That winterbor was beautiful kale, it looks similar to what grocery stores sell near me. I’ll have to find some seeds. I grew curly dwarf blue and was not a fan. Working on adding more varieties besides.
It's always fun to try new varieties! Happy Gardening!
I'm in northwest Portugal, we already picked up all kinds of peas. Now it will get to hot fir them. But I have beans already with flowers.
Here is too early to sow Brassicas, July is better
If your picture is correct your mice are voles.
get some runner ducks for slug control
First one, nice video.
I love pak choi but so do the slugs....
You can get rid of slugs and snails by putting coffee grounds around your plants
Old Wives Tale. Does not work......
I've tried it but haven't had much luck with coffee grounds unfortunately.
@@ChrisJohnson-pd4hh darn! That’s just something I’ve heard. I plan on having a garden. Thank you for the info!
I've gone through all 40 bags of compost.
❤❤❤
Got cucumbers bursting out of the greenhouse, parsnips looking good, purple cauliflower coming on nice, but struggling with tomatoes this season. Not sure what I've done. Think it might be the weather. Was spoiled last year with June being hot .
A good way to compare years is to look up "growing degree days" for your region using the threshold of 50 degrees which tomatos need. You can compare years really easily and see that hey! Its not my fault, the growing season is actually 3 weeks behind! 😂
My toms are flowering, but there's no fruit setting... I've never had that before.
@nedkelly5866 same as... got a few, but not near from last year, everything is just not happening . 😢
Here's a (possibly) handy video on improving fruit set in tomatoes: th-cam.com/video/PvUnG20zd8k/w-d-xo.htmlsi=PPtVP-NPn5ZYhWdU
Thank you! Where are you in the world. I'm in Ontario Canada south so it's zone 6a. I'm a single retiree, and I don't need much. I've had nice veg gardens in Hamilton Ontario and a huge garden in Powell River, British Columbia Ca. I bought Swiss chard because when I was in Powell River BC the slugs were huge and voracious that was the main problem. So Swiss chard was safer than trying to grow than spinach which is just laying on the ground waiting to be eaten. Deer were a bit of a problem as well they would get over my fence sometime. We just went through a heat dome thing temps around 35 degrees C. in Ontario it's going to get very hot here. I'm not sure if it's too warm to plant it now from seed. In PR it would over winter and come back with leaves to eat the next year.
Hi Trevor. I'm in the south of the UK. So cooler summers, but warmer winters. Your summers must be very challenging with that heat - hope it cools off for you soon.
@@GrowVeg Thank you!
I'm going to try carrots in containers ..😊I'm not having any luck in the ground unless something has been eating the seeds😅
I'm in zone 4A & hv Parisian carrots sprouts (please check the spelling). The soil doesn't need to be as fine, but I do hv them in containers. Lemon thyme, lavender & rosemary are flowering. Plants, flowers, basil are ok.
Carrots grow well in containers - raise them up if you can, away from the slugs!
@@GrowVeg i will..thanks from 🇨🇦
As others have noted, summer seems to have been cancelled this year, at least in the UK (and also apparently in France).
I think for next year I'm just going to have to grow everything under glass, heated and with grow lights.
Either that, or I'll need to research what can be grown in permanently overcast and wet conditions.
I think you'll find Summer is here. It's just very late and we don't know how long it'll last.
Same in western Canada
Ha
Hllo and thank you for all your good and on time tips i.
I wanted to ask if it is ture dat if you give your garden vegetables compost fooding in warm weather they die
Compost can be used as a mulch around actively growing plants, so long as you don't swamp/bury them of course. The compost will help to feed the soil, and then the plants, and will help the soil retain valuable moisture, so it's all good.
We're so far behind, my spring peas are just producing now, and the bush beans have yet to start 😥
Everything should catch up eventually I'm sure. :-)
I'm always surprised by the idea of replanting kale - I plant it once (in the spring) and the plants will produce well into the fall, by which time I've probably had enough. 🙂
Aren't they basically a "cut and come again" kind of plant?
Thank-you so much for your advice. Gardening in central Alberta. The sunflowers, peas, tomatoes and the cat mint just got a very heavy frost. They look pretty dead. Should I pull them out? We sunk to minus 5 Celsius . Didn't seem to damage the carrots, beets ,spring onions . Any advice? New to gardening
Sadly the sunflowers, peas and tomatoes cannot handle a late frost so will probably need to be removed and started again. Always try to keep an eye on the weather forecast - anything nearing 3 degrees and you need to protect your plants just in case it drops a bit more.
I would be sowing some more carrots now, but I've just finished emptying my dalek compost bin as rats had burrowed underneath. Saw one scurry out and all this time I thought it was my dog digging around the bin for the last few months.
Maybe it was the eggshells and whole potatoes that the rats loved. Don't want to use rat urine concentrated compost on my root veg! Time for some store bought compost and some mesh underneath the bin 😬 🥕
Roast the egg shells so the membrane is brown before putting in the compost bin.
I think putting some mesh beneath the bin, and avoiding any cooked foods should help to dissuade the rats.
Anyone else having a problem getting their tomato flowers to set fruit this year?
Got a feeling there's hardly any bees about... So I'm tickling the flowers with a cheapo electric toothbrush, to try and mimic bees buzzing... Anyone else tried that before?
Yes, crop looks like a failure this year. I’m going to try the electric toothbrush method of tying to get the tomatoes to pollinate.
Plant more flowers to get more pollinators, but yea everyone is using poisons on "pests" in their yard not understanding how damaging it is for pollinators. Not only bees, hoverflies etc. Tell everyone stop being clowns using herbicides and pesticides! Kill your lawn! Plant native flowers
@@chompers11I'm 100% organic, and grow a healthy selection of 'plants for pollinators' 👍
@@nedkelly5866 yea buddy! 🤘 only way to be really
I just flick the flowers with my fingers. This works for me. Best of luck.
I only planted potatoes and tomatoes 3 weeks ago, I'm a fresh space/balcony gardener. I will learn next year. But looks like I will yield some crops. Can you do suggestion for people like me please x
Of course. We do regularly revisit container growing. You might find this playlist helpful: th-cam.com/play/PL3VEy0_tuFgTDSzjJHkq94u_4Jm6TjfdP.html&si=1KJNkWNFAF5CxYBC
Love your videos! Can you tell me what size mesh you have on your soil sifter?
The sifter is a lot like this one, so around 7-12mm mesh: www.amazon.co.uk/Draper-17998-Garden-Soil-Sieve/dp/B06XXWVLZW/ref=sr_1_9?crid=1AQ10N6ZRFA9Z&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.n1FdWuUPzq5VLevNgMa9GDbl7ItXPh8r87JqL0usMR95lGFnknXwPzfx_3f_L9d5TuPP0cMTN7L_DEoybAwZLGzRMHvN4dPCRXJ6G9vL24sVfJQamunCAixyTZRngv7M0QZ1Dst45rslVDMvTPLfWo2Go-dCqZnCZcRVM5JmSBHX8FJSwU4bFGmSyMDVU03WvgrU99yZGpn4SAEE34tXD8tO9t12MXlJmh3j-7nBeHfvl9N5E4PIx7BExmFBeTUNvB5TS92rCfKMRZ82cMX1sL7LHoed9Lp_bHZMdSQTVjY.Agk4RbkauBiRP9Waa9cgB5ml6nTANf4X1YphScAR_6s&dib_tag=se&keywords=soil+sifter&qid=1719487035&sprefix=soil+sifter%2Caps%2C88&sr=8-9
@@GrowVeg Thanks!
I love your garden and all the advice. However I’d love to know what you do with all this produce. I only have a small garden yet I’m still eating last year’s courgettes and runner beans. I can only give so much away. With only 3 people in your family, what do you do with it all?
Thank you! Eaten, stored and given to friends and neighbours! :-)
I know this is mostly a crops related channel, but will you be doing any UK native planting videos? Or could you recommend any good ones
I just cover edibles, all grown in tune with nature, but we don't have any specifically UK-native planting videos, sorry.
I took your advice: just sowed another lot of my absolute favorite sweet peas, more carrots, dill and coriander. Never tried kale. Have you ever tried chicory? Is it worth growing?
I've grown chicory for roots (to make a coffee substitute) which was great fun, but have only grown leaf chicory once. It was all good though - worth doing. :-)
@@GrowVeg Thanks!
I had a free bed and some spare cauliflower seeds, so I sowed them; will they work this late?
It depends what type they are. I sense it may be a bit late. Otherwise you can sow a winter-hardy variety from around October.
🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡👌👌
My arugula is blooming lovely - will it still be ok to eat?
Yes you can definitely eat it, you just won't be getting as many leaves now it's blooming, and the leaves may be a bit tough and bitter.
Blooming arugula ? You lucky thing ! The little flowers are flavour bombs which you musn't overlook ... strangely reminiscent of peanuts . Same for radishes , when they produce young seed pods do have a nibble : refreshing and not too spicy !
Could i still start peas still ? Newcastle-upon-Tyne england
Yes, I'd like to know too as my peas have been decimated. ☹️
Yes you could - but get them started asap. :-)
Completely organic or use synthetic fertilizers
I'm completely organic. :-)
I usually grow carrots after I lift the garlic and even as late as August. However, this year the garlic developed rust (I've lifted them). Is it OK to sow carrots in this bed or is the rust a hindrance to other plants? Thanks Ben.
PS, I the fangs would look great at Halloween 😂🥕
Carrots should be fine I reckon... Just don't grow any alliums in that bed for a year or two.
Yes, great advice from Ned Kelly - carrots would be fine to follow on with. :-)
Thank you Ben and Ned.🙏
Have to say that you're lucky to get anything to grow. Our tomatoes have not grown and remain stunted or died. Every year we've grown a wonderful display of veg but this year has been a disaster for us. Talking with other gardeners they're finding the same thing, something sinister is going on me thinks.
The warm autumn and the cold spring has really wrecked havok on both the plants themselves AND the pollinators/other benificial animals that would otherwise help the plant. The balance is really off this year so it was easy for things to go wrong
Sorry to read this. The weather has been a bit fickle to say the least!
Outside became a slug and snails food heaven. Didn’t harvest anything 😭😭😭 everything got eaten
You may find this video helpful I hope: th-cam.com/video/VJvUwkFZeOM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=yXH8uNCqP0Y6Nf_p
Seemed to me that there was an uneasy truce when you went to C mr CD
Thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Charles - he's a very inspiring fellow! :-)
Geo-engineering is not helping our quest for home grown food. So sad but I feel true
I agree
the summer hasnt arrived yet.... :/
Hope it arrives for you soon. :-)
@@GrowVeg it did, yesterday 🙃☺
Plank of wood will attract slugs and snails.
You do need to watch out for slugs and snails, yes. So remove the planks the moment you see any seedlings, so they don't then get mown down by the slugs!
😱😌🚷🧙
You do that here then you will be waisting your time and seed as nothing will grow only dye in the heat, but I will be sowing in Sep, in order to harvest at Christmas onwards.
