A huge thank you to these kind-hearted gardening creators who make room for we total novices in their teachings and sharings and give us the courage to go ahead and try. And that’s just what I’m doing! 💖😊💖
Great video for the fact that you get into speaking about areas around the world that does not pertain to you. I am going to subscribe to your channel! I am in the northern United States, Wisconsin. 🙂🌱
Thank you. I sometimes feel a bit overwhelmed by some of the other gardening videos that I watch. You have such a calming, laid back attitude to it all. I find it very reasuring.
Hi, I work on the basis that nature just wants to grow, so there is no point in trying to force it or control it too much, it will happen in its own good time!
Love these videos, have been watching for a few tears now and have learnt so much! We are in North Yorkshire so not too far away in terms of climate, perhaps a little drier and colder but your advice seems to apply well here. Our garden is tiny, veg is in 3 raised beds (combined, probably the surface of one of yours) and the smallest greenhouse on the market that one can walk into. Love the “zippy” and have thought of adding those but just nowhere to put them. Despite space restrictions we grow sufficient fruit and veg for summer and autumn; the. I get a shock when obliged to buy retail despite proximity of an excellent farm shop. Too easy to overbuy for a household of 2 when shopping! This year I have found a seed company that sells very small quantities at extremely modest prices so am experimenting with baby watermelon for the first time (don’t laugh 😂). Plants are growing nicely and frankly if I get 1 edible melon I shall be delighted and the seeds will have paid for themselves. Spinach seems to be struggling this year, will try another sowing with fingers crossed. Spuds seem to think that they are triffids, will be glad when they can be pulled and space reclaimed for other plants. Sugar snap peas usually do well for us but this time the first 2 sowings just rotted in the ground. Have 2 lots now growing well after germinating on kitchen paper, just started a 3rd lot so that should see us through. Lettuce variable, last year I discovered Analena lettuce, they grew easily and tasted great, this year perhaps a third are flourishing, have another batch of seedlings ready to prick out so hoping that these do better. For some reason I can’t grow Little Gem, they flop and then bolt within what seems like seconds of planting out. Given up on brassicas due cabbage white caterpillars, I tried removing the eggs from the underside of leaves, also “rehoming” caterpillars to a nasturtium grown for the purpose but all to no avail. We do have some successes, wish that I could share some photos, in particular of my strawberries, in containers this year to protect from mice and birds, also a thornless blackberry that has grown from a tiny plant to cordons that now more or less cover the fences all around the garden. Have you tried bush raspberries such as Ruby Beauty? Had great success year 1, nothing year 2 but a few flowers are just forming this year so hoping we might get something like the kilo of fruit promised by the plant firm we bought from. Would love to know of the experiences of others with this and similar. Many thanks again for your inspirational videos 💐
Thanks for your wonderful videos. These month by month ones truly help me cope with the constant anxious feeling of "it's too early to sow yet, it's too early to sow yet, it's still to early to sow yet, oh no - I've missed the boat for this year"
I am on Vancouver Island, Canada, so I think we’ve got the same hardiness zone. It’s good to see your newest place thriving by the looks of it. Thank you so much for your very relatable videos.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I love your channel very much. And, even though I am now 62, you remember me of my favorite grandmother: calmly, knowing what she was doing and why, with a big heart and an even bigger vegetable garden. So yes; this was meant as a compliment.
Thank you Ann, it was a lovely spot to sit and chat, shortly after I finished filming I had a close encounter with a huge bumble bee - thank goodness I had turned the camera off as I did the rather inelegant summer dance with full arm waving and shrieking!
I had no luck at all with the Yin Yang beans, and I was so excited to try them! The Greek Gigantes are always so reliable, I learned about them from you. I'm after the slugs everyday, driving me crazy! I have lots of the seed trays right in the garden on the beds (no greenhouse) and also pots. They love hiding under pots and trays so I have to lift them everyday and I dispatch them with scissors. (Sorry if anyone is queezy!) They ate e eryone of my little brusselsprout seedlings so now I have to start over! Not sure if it's too late? Love your channel Liz, keep smiling! (Scottish Borders)
Please keep trying with your yin yang beans I’ve tried hard over three or more years. This year a huge success to my surprise. I germinated them in a seed tray in a shed, covered by a plastic cover. They are so facinatingly marked…….. I love Lizs videos, she puts so much work in , she deserves good crops.
@@TomTom-df9ph Thanks for the encouragement, I think I'll try to sprout them first too under cover to try to get them started earlier. I'm trying two new beans this year, Armstrong (runner) and Lima O Del Papa, these are streaked.
Thanks Ell, yes a busy month ahead, but busier ones to come, so I'm enjoying the quiet moments when I'm editing videos to recharge my batteries (not literally of course) in readiness for the harvesting ahead of us.
Thank you. So encouraging, I never know the right time to sow seed...pleased to hear there are loads to go in this month. My dad died of Covid-19 and he was my guide. Glad to have found you.
Hello Joan, I'm sorry to read about your father, our condolences. I have a series of these videos covering each month of the year (I didn't make one in December) and I will continue to make them for foreseeable future. th-cam.com/play/PLa6906pLM92nazdkurdCOc-zI_Ck9oULG.html
🇬🇧 Watched a Californian lady today who propagated her radish between sheets of damp tissue so was able to plant them well part and "Home Grown Veg" did the same with carrots. Both, especially the carrots, came up much faster than direct sowing. Ok system for folk with small growing area and planting in 10" inch black pots. Radish system seemed to be as some were picked some more were planted. Interesting and as I'm going to be growing radish, carrot an turnips in pots I'll try the same way. Happy sowing Liz. 👍💕💚
I love Jim at Home Grown Veg. I copied him n have buckets of carrots, raddish, parsnips, beets, spuds, leeks no ghouse, n small garden. His methods work. Happy gardening.
Hi Liz, another excellent video. I am also fairly poor at successional sowing despite my best intentions! I have grown turnips “Tokyo Cross” this year with great success, multi sown in modules then they push each other apart. Regarding Swedes, I sow mine in modules in mid/late May and plant out when they are well grown and since adopting this practice I have not had a problem with them. This was a tip I was given by a grower of prize winning champion vegetables and it works.
Hello! Thank you for all the great June planting tips. I am an American living in the UK, so I am new to gardening in this climate. I look forward to more gardening recommendations. :))
Hello Natascha, I hope you aren't too put off by all the awful weather we have been having, but the rain is good for the garden, although maybe not so good for other things - like encouraging fungal infections on our potatoes and tomatoes!
Thank you again Liz, I now have a new allotment and your posts are helping me know what to plant now, will be planting beets and chard tomorrow and I know I can look back at your posts for advice.
Hi Cath, I hope you've managed to get a few seeds and plants in this week, the cooler weather we are due for the next few days means I can get the most of my tender plants into the ground without them being baked by the sun.
Thank you , great info for newbie no dig gardeners like me who get a bit overwhelmed about what to sow in June ready to transplant as well as direct sowing.
Hi Andrea, I have a playlist of what to sow month by month and I'll continue to add videos to it over the next year or so too. th-cam.com/play/PLa6906pLM92nazdkurdCOc-zI_Ck9oULG.html
Yeah I live in Maine over the last few days our temps have gone crazzy. From a day time high of 94 mid week to a low of 29 on the first morning of JUNE. Happy JUNE everyone. Then on the second it was 34 at night YES
Great video-thank you! I like your point at the end about roots searching for water. We can get very dry here in central Sutherland and what water we do get drains away quickly - although we have had more rain this year than usual. I think sometimes we panic about watering when we don't need to, so maybe we need not to worry so much after the germination stage...food for thought anyway😊
We have a very similar climate to you (USA Pacific Northwest) and I was walking with my children noticing that the Trailing Blackberries or Dewberries are almost ready, yet when I lived on the Gulf Coast in the southern USA, they were ripe by the end of February...climate makes a huge difference!! And Sweet Basil there grew waist high or more and was very shrub like with thick stems it self-seeded like crazy...I have to baby it here and hope I get some.
Hi, so sorry that it's taken me so long to reply! The songbirds are just lovely at this time of year, I have been trying to film them, but they move around so quickly, I can hardly keep up with them!
Thanks Ansie! The birds are enjoying the quietness and stillness, I feel sad that it's going to be ending soon and the roads and skies will be busy with cars and planes again.
That was a wonderful video, thank you very much. You've provided me with lots of ideas and inspiration for my veggie garden. I am pretty much new to gardening this year, and was really worried that as we got later on in the year I would have less and less to grow, but this just taught me that theres still lots and lots to be doing and growing :D
Hi Margaret, gosh it's been a busy week here, I'm sorry I've been so long in replying. Monty has just come in to snuggle up on the sofa next to me, but it's still quite hot here tonight, so I'm hoping he doesn't snuggle too closely!
I love French Breakfast radishes, they are milder in flavor (not quite so peppery) and are great fresh from the garden and in salads. Since I really don't like turnips I would not plant any of those, however, I do like parsnips (once they've been hit with a frost) and would like to try those here. Tomatoes and lettuce are two plants I will plant. All of that will have to wait as I am still unwell. I enjoyed this video, you made me think about gardening. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.
I live in Florida. I have been trying to grow vegetables for the last 5 years. This is the first year that I've had any success. We had to build a greenhouse to protect from the elements and critters. I've managed to harvest strawberry, bib lettuce, black eye peas. I'm hoping the rest of the greens and legumes will be successful too. I have carrots, turnips, tomatoes growing. The squash died from powdery mildew taking over. So, I'm starting fresh seeds and see what happens with them.
Good for you. Hard part to gardening is learning what and when grows best where you live. Since u live in Florida I'd grow earlier then May, since I live in OK they say best after May 5th generally. Plants like tomatoes don't grow fruits well if over 90 degrees. Good luck. Enjoy your successes and learn from failures.
Oooh I just sowed some Sonesta beans and Chioggia beets a few days ago too, and they've already started to show seedlings... Very excited! 😍 EDIT! I Just realised this video was from last year... 😂 Whoops
Hi Steven, I'm not sure where the week has gone, I seem to have been chasing my tail for the last few days. I hope you've been able to enjoy some of this nice weather!
Awww, the birds are serenading you in thanks, they love your garden:) Thanks for the advice, I’m late on the draw this year with so much to get done, but I have seeds, so I will give it a go and see what happens.
Oh wow, I just discovered your channel today. You're such a lovely personality. This year will be my first roof garden attempt. Got all the goodies delivered last week, so full steam ahead with planting some veggies in June.
Here in Colorado the weather has been wet and cold so the exact opposite of what you’ve been experiencing LOL. I wouldn’t mind if you sent some of that heat my way though :-) my favorite garden bed of the year is full of tiny vegetables and I’ve got quite a few sprouts in it so far this year having planted them about a week ago. I’m growing purple plum radishes, Boston pickling cucumbers, microtom tomatoes, Tom Thumb lettuce, green onions, and french carrots. When I have a tiny amount of space to grow and I figure I might as well grow tiny vegetables to go with that tiny space LOL
If it is an option for you, also grow something that climbs up, in the background. Like cucumbers, or climbing beans. Any pots that you can hang, is on more way to grow something, , and maybe some window boxes too, for kitchen herbs. 🎇✨🎆✨🎇 growing a garden brings joy to the heart. 😎😊😍 Happy gardening to all, everyone and everywhere.
Hi, hopefully your weather has warmed a little since you left your comment. It's been hot here (almost too hot) and the ground is now cracking open due the lack of rain. Given that we just had an incredibly wet winter, I am surprised at how quickly the soil seems to have dried out. I love the idea of tiny vegetables!
Liz Zorab - Byther Farm It has warmed up a bit. The weather has warmed up a bit, The tiny vegetable garden is really coming to life and just about everything has sprouted and half of it has true leaves. Even my wild strawberries i put in there are showing their faces through the mulch
Liz thank you so much for this video . I’ve been wondering how to tell which way the squash will grow . Thank you I’ll be planting my plugs in the ground soon . Xxx ❤️🌱
Hi Liz...try Gowrie Swede as an alternative...I’ve found it a little more tolerant when watering has not been as often as needed...cheers. Dave/Cumbria.
Thanks for the list of seeds to grow, I'm getting back into growing vegetables again, and I'm really excited about it, but there is lots of work to do first. so we have tomatoes and peppers, cucumber and some seeds, just need to clear the debris and rebuilding the beds, so excited.
Thank you! I imagine that it won't be very long before your planting is happening and your long daylight hours must make it easy for you to be in the garden late in the evenings.

You and me both Liz, making these videos has really helped me too!
Why would anybody dislike this vid? Buffoons!
Can’t wait to sow more seeds this month! Thanks for the upload Liz!

Plants like tomatoes don't grow fruits well if over 90 degrees. Good luck. Enjoy your successes and learn from failures.
You look to be a very nice person!
Very helpful thank you. Good health and happiness to you.
So much information on this video, thank you. I haven't sown the Yin yang yet.
I need to put more swede seeds in soon. I already have a row germinated.
Now I'm envious, I haven't sown them yet, so possibly yet again I'll have left it too late!
Glad I can still sow psb I thought I'd sown some but must have forgotten. Something to sow when I get home from work. 😁
Did you get the psb sown Jen? I still haven't done mine, so we can nag each other until it's done!
@@LizZorab no I didn't lol 😂 😂 I better get on with it! 😁
Remember us in Canada Liz! Zones 6 and below. 🇨🇦😊❤️🌈☀️
Oooh I just sowed some Sonesta beans and Chioggia beets a few days ago too, and they've already started to show seedlings... Very excited! 😍
EDIT! I Just realised this video was from last year... 😂 Whoops
It still applies! Nice that your seeds are coming up so quickly.
Just found this vid myself. Lol.
Thank you 😊 I want to do more planting and your information is fantastic 🐶😺❤️👍😊
Hi Norma, so pleased that the info is useful for you! 😃
Thanks Liz. Hope you Guy's are keeping well. Because you certainly look like you are. 😉
Hi Stephen, we are both very well thanks. I hope you and yours are also safe and well.
Hi Liz, thanks for the video, enjoyed it. The pink centred radish (red meat) is slower maturing that your typical radish. Can take about 2-3 months.
Thank you so much for letting me know, I'll sow them and bear that in mind 😃
lovely video lovely roses
Hi Steven, I'm not sure where the week has gone, I seem to have been chasing my tail for the last few days. I hope you've been able to enjoy some of this nice weather!
Awww, the birds are serenading you in thanks, they love your garden:) Thanks for the advice, I’m late on the draw this year with so much to get done, but I have seeds, so I will give it a go and see what happens.
Oh wow, I just discovered your channel today. You're such a lovely personality. This year will be my first roof garden attempt. Got all the goodies delivered last week, so full steam ahead with planting some veggies in June.
Hello Jason, welcome to the channel, I hope you'll enjoy getting to know our little corner of this beautiful planet!
I'm growing Neckargold beans, because we live near the Neckar river.
Nice! I haven't grown them before so I'm hoping that they will do well.
I won't buy from Amazon, but great info💚🌱
I hear a voice from experience. Thank You.
Thanks, enjoyed the video I'm new to growing veg, so find these videos very helpful 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Here in Colorado the weather has been wet and cold so the exact opposite of what you’ve been experiencing LOL. I wouldn’t mind if you sent some of that heat my way though :-) my favorite garden bed of the year is full of tiny vegetables and I’ve got quite a few sprouts in it so far this year having planted them about a week ago. I’m growing purple plum radishes, Boston pickling cucumbers, microtom tomatoes, Tom Thumb lettuce, green onions, and french carrots. When I have a tiny amount of space to grow and I figure I might as well grow tiny vegetables to go with that tiny space LOL
If it is an option for you, also grow something that climbs up, in the background. Like cucumbers, or climbing beans.
Any pots that you can hang, is on more way to grow something, , and maybe some window boxes too, for kitchen herbs.
🎇✨🎆✨🎇 growing a garden brings joy to the heart.
😎😊😍 Happy gardening to all, everyone and everywhere.
Hi, hopefully your weather has warmed a little since you left your comment. It's been hot here (almost too hot) and the ground is now cracking open due the lack of rain. Given that we just had an incredibly wet winter, I am surprised at how quickly the soil seems to have dried out. I love the idea of tiny vegetables!
Liz Zorab - Byther Farm It has warmed up a bit. The weather has warmed up a bit, The tiny vegetable garden is really coming to life and just about everything has sprouted and half of it has true leaves. Even my wild strawberries i put in there are showing their faces through the mulch
This is so helpful thank you keep up the great work helps us beginners a lot!
Liz thank you so much for this video . I’ve been wondering how to tell which way the squash will grow . Thank you I’ll be planting my plugs in the ground soon . Xxx ❤️🌱
Loved it as always.
Thank you!
Hi Liz...try Gowrie Swede as an alternative...I’ve found it a little more tolerant when watering has not been as often as needed...cheers. Dave/Cumbria.
Thanks for the tip Dave, I shall get online and find out a bit more about it.
@@LizZorab 👍 keep up with the vids Liz...one of the best on TH-cam.
Don't forget Canada! :D
Thanks for the list of seeds to grow, I'm getting back into growing vegetables again, and I'm really excited about it, but there is lots of work to do first. so we have tomatoes and peppers, cucumber and some seeds, just need to clear the debris and rebuilding the beds, so excited.
Hi Lesley, ooh exciting! It's great to have a project to work on!
I enjoyed your video thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you for watching.
Her in norway on the west cost vi have not come so far in planting, but Vi will do sun..Love Your video. 😊🌼☘️
Thank you! I imagine that it won't be very long before your planting is happening and your long daylight hours must make it easy for you to be in the garden late in the evenings.
Thank you. X
You’re welcome 😊
Thanks Liz
