Hi Elaine I do not trust the media about anything😂. That is a great Swede, shame one rotted. Hi Elaine when you have made your compost you could try a no dig bed? Give the worms a break 😂😂👍👌❤️😁
@nickthegardener.1120 Hi Nick. What a pong of dead swede lol. I'm still happy with what came home. I felt bad for digging it over but it was quite compacted, like the other bed I dug. There were loads of real juicy sized worms but I will make it up to them. Most of the beds are no dig and I top dress them. I'm not into double digging any more lol. 😁👍🧄🧅❤️🪱🪱🪱💪
Crazy Elaine isn’t it. Too hot too cold. We just deal with what comes. Great looking Swede 😮❤ I stored 2 of ours in sand ….. they rotted 😂😂 glad I put the rest in the freezer. Off to the garden centre now. Keep warm Allie & Tricia ❤
Hi Allie and Tricia. That's true. We just get on with the weather lol. I brought an iffy swede home. Stank the kitchen out....out it went lol. You will only know if something works, when you try it. Thankfully, I am pre-warned lol so I won't be doing that. I've just got to find my shoehorn to get the swede in lol. Watch yourselves at the garden centre 😉 While you're shopping, I've got a nice red lentil soup on to keep warm with. Have fun shopping. Elaine 🌱 🥶❤️
@ I’ve just gone meat free so eating lots of lentils now. Had a green lentil curry for 2 days which was gorgeous. Smelly swede 🤣🤣 Just arrived at the garden centre 😁wish us luck 🍀 xx
That's the thing about garden centres, garden stuff relegated to the corner or outside and Christmas Wonderland front and centre lol. Better luck with the next one eh? 🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲 🎅 🤣😂👍
Elaine I always believe the media 😂😂😂I started my garlic today in modules to give them a little start before I plant them out,that’s if we don’t get 3 ft of snow as the weatherman said ⛄️ ❄️😂😂😂👍
@ThatBritishHomestead Hi. I usually plant shop bought but this year, I was advised to buy seed garlic. Must say, I'm quite happy with the quality, apart from one bulb of Topadrome. The bulbs from LIDL are a good size at 36p each. My own garlic wasn't that brilliant this year. I reckon the winter and wet weather didn't help. Better luck this time round lol.
@Jimmy.Plot.41.b Thanks Jimmy. Perhaps they take people for fools. I know 'canny' you can't beat a geordie accent. Thanks for sending those JS seeds out. They are rare as rocking horse doodah lol 👍👍
😂😂 bloody media. I think the weather people just look outside and see what we see. Raining and cold with a chance of sunny periods but we could see snow in areas 🤣🤣🤣.
I’m putting in a bit more garlic but I need to find a spot for it that doesn’t drowned in winter. Not doing it today though it’s pouring 🌧️🌧️🌧️. Lovely coats for the kids 👍. We’re in the midst of a postal strike 🤦♀️ so seed sending is on hold. This bloody AI 🤖 stuff is going to be the death of us because we also have a dock strike. We need to look after ourselves because no one else is going to do it. Have a super week ahead Elaine and by extension Richard, Ali 🌧️🥶🇨🇦
@myrustygarden postal strike! Hopefully it gets resolved. I have sent you something.... I make sure the dogs are kept warm. After all, they spend a lot of hours hanging around on the plot. A dock strike too! Might as well close everything down, while they're at it lol. Stay dry and carry on! I'll tell Richard too 🥶 🌧 🌦 🌂 ⛈️ ☔️ 😁👍
I dont watch main stream media, but i do check my weather app and its changed again so who knows 😂 Swede look fab even the small ones you will get a few meal out of them ❤ Ahĥh look at the dogs with their coats on ❤❤ 6:46 soil on the bed looks amazing 👏
@traceysallotmentNcooking I look at a very good weather watching channel on YT and he's pretty good, plus I have a weather app, that gives me by the minute weather conditions. Very precise when you're out in the rain lol. 🌧 ⛈️☀️🌤

@GanggangPeanut I can imagine you with a pickaxe, trying to plant them when they're ready lol. Winter is coming... lol 🥶🌧🌧🌧😁👍
Some lovely garlic there! Wow I never thought about buying form garlic. We save ours each year

Never trust the media, they do nothing but lie 😂😂. Swede looks canny ( good ). Good luck with the onions. J.S seeds will be posted to you tomorrow 👍

@@myrustygarden Hi Ali. I watched a documentary about a town living in minus 60 something. They do flap here about a miniscule of cold lol. 🥶
@@myrustygarden I bet you get a bit more snow than we do here in the UK.

@ I’ll keep you posted 🤦♀️ no pun intended
I have never heard of the vegetable Swede. Is it the same thing as rutabaga?
@karenchaney9160 Hi. I have looked it up and yes, they are one and the same.
I dont watch main stream media, but i do check my weather app and its changed again so who knows 😂
