Succession sowing is my big goal this season! In previous years, I have never had a plan for what happens to my beds after I harvest the main crop. Now, I have an array of turnips, beets, pak choi, mibuna and chard seeds ready to fill out the vacant spaces left by garlic, potatoes etc. Thanks for making this video! It's so uplifting to see that the fun of sowing doesn't have to stop when spring is over.
I also noticed an experienced gardener at our community garden growing daikon radish after garlic. I tried it and liked it. I also successfully tried white turnip and not so successfully the rutabaga. I'll stick to white and salad, my favourite.
With cilantro you get so much seed I end up harvesting and using it as a continual covercrop during the summer. Pollinators love it for when it flowers, and it protects beds from being bare during turnovers. During this major heatwave we had here in western Canada my cannellini bean starts were protected by cilantro that was growing all around it. Doesn't matter if it is bolting all the time just keep throwing down the seed and pull when you want to make space in a bed.
This is the first year I am planting in modules now for mid-July planting. I am zone 8, and we had too much rain and very cool temperatures this last spring, so everything is a bit behind, but they do catch up. I intercrop quite a bit, which is amazing to see. I struggle with beats for some reason, so I will see how they do planting now (in late June), to see if I have better luck than in early spring or autumn to winter over. Thank you Huw for everything you have taught me - Sean from the US state of Oregon, in Portland.
What a wonderful way to wind down a particularly stressful week, sipping a nice dirty martini and listening to Huw's soothing voice. Wonderful video sir!
@@wayneking9997 that’s very true! There have been times where I wanted to give up because vegetables wouldn’t grow but gradually understood the reasons why.
Thank you 😊 for the Gardening advice. I am learning so much from others that garden 🪴 Here in Nova Scotia Canada 🇨🇦. And online. Just loving 🥰 homesteading.
It´s interesting to see the diferences between several countrys. I´m living in Germany, which isn´t that far away from you, and we sow kohlrabi out in march. and i harvested the first one this week.
Companion planting with lavender, rosemary, marigold helps. I recommend researching integrated pest management sprays using biodegradable soap, citric acid and essential plant oils.
Kale is my absolute favorite!!! We had them outside last year. All through winter we had great harvest. Actually all of our cabbage plants lasted through the winter and grew very well.
I can share oregano plants and beet seed with anyone in Portland area. Happy to get some of your excess figs, squash or Kale in trade. Our chickens love compost scraps. We'll have Plums to swap in August also. 8b is our zone, and we always get a cool rain 3rd week of August, so that helps plants limping along in drought, or that we can get started in summer. Our rain barrels are now empty, and I tote grey-water out from sink and shower containers daily. Weekly deep watering is fine for most plants, once established.
Not related at all but I somehow got the urge to say that while I'm waiting for my first harvest of raspberries, I'm picking wild raspberries growing in our neighbour's hedge. I can't wait to taste the real deal though!
I had never tried the black radish or parsnips before but the radish has done well in one corner of my garden it just keeps reseeding its self and just found out the parsnip has done the same witch I thought was carrots so this year I will enjoy all 3 and have plenty of seeds. This year was the first year I grew everything from seed in my green house and this year I will house inside tomatoes 3 different ones,and tricolored peppers. And my heirloom large cherryl tomato volunteered again and all tomatoes are just blooming. Its been a growing curve this year . Frost in May and not much rain so I've been making comfrey& purselane tea too boost some growth I'm planning on having a row comfrey around the whole fence areas that way when I fall plow I can add the cuttings into the soil for good composted soil.
I grow fennel for my daughter and personally have no experience using it in the kitchen. She makes a fennel soup each year that I have yet to taste. I do make fennel tea on a rare occasion. I cook all my meals but the truth is I spend so much time in the garden that I'm hard pressed for a creative flare when it's time to cook. Luckily I have a nice variety of fruit and veg that I can snack on in the garden while I'm out there.
Sorry to reply to a 7 month old comment..... but I used to make fennel soup all the time - its absolutely delicious! 1 Bulb fennel to six cloves garlic to a thumb of ginger. Serve with crusty (garlic) bread!
I’m in zone 7b in Northwest GA (USA). We have our hottest weather in July and August . I’m planning an autumn garden this year but we don’t get any cool-down until at least September.
Containers gardening with side holes and made layers sticks, leaves, top soil, compost, cow poo or earthworm castings and premium container soil, easy to protect and movable. Cover with tulle. I put my containers in chairs or on bricks off ground. Instant , movable beds
Thanks Huw, excellent recommendations. I had planted a couple already but I loved some of the other suggestions, particularly the Sarpo Mira potatoes. Looking forward to experiment with them this year.
That garden looks lovely! Unfortunately my veggie growing has all but stopped. And I can only eat one of those crops mentioned, Italian kale. Since finding out I have high oxalate levels and have to avoid high oxalate foods, nearly all fruit and veg is off the menu. I am sad, but now I grow more flowers instead.
I've been trying to grow dill will only little success for about two years. I'll occasionally cook Borsch with red cabbage and beetroot, and though I should grow the dill for it. Unfortunately the slugs and snails are too fond of it. Watching this video, I had one idea, that I could take multi-cell trays, and sow one seed of something like a mangetout pea every day in each cell.
QUESTION: Parsley can be microwaved to quickly dry it. Then you can gently crumble the leaves and store just like store bought parsley. BUT does that destroy or deminish it's vitamins and minerals?
Another great video. Thank you so much. You’ve mentioned herbs. Do you have any tips for growing them? I live in zone 7, so fat I’ve tried putting parsley, coriander and dill seeds in the ground, in containers and in modules and nothing seems to be working. Another vegetable I’m struggling with too is celery, it sprouts but it seems to be 3mm tall forever😄. It would really help some info
With starting seeds in module trays during the summer , do I leave the module trays outside ? Shade ? Sun ? I’m only used to sowing in trays in early spring under lights in the house . Sumner sowing is new to me !
@@andreahorsch286 I am here in Ohio, too. I am amused... and a bit jealous..when so many UK gardeners refer to their U.S. zones! They are milder all the way around, with more like zone 7 or 8 winter temps but summer highs far lowers than ours. Of course, our warm summers means we find winter squash, melons, sweet potatoes, and eggplant easier to grow ( lots of U.K gardeners have tips on creating warm microclimates for those, but we just plop them in the ground!), so I can accept that our pea and salad season is so much shorter! :) I learn so much from this channel and Charles Dowding on general garden principals, but I watch an Ohio gardener, Growfully With Jenna, who gives seasonal growing tips more appropriate for our climate. She has a similar video out now for June. I am hoping for a July or August one soon. th-cam.com/video/t5dRO1knU5k/w-d-xo.html She does mention.. on Instagram I think... That this is the time for planting brassicas like cabbages and broccoli in starter pots so they will be healthy and strong to go in once the weather cools off enough for them. And I know I am sowing a lot of bush beans still because they mature so quickly and I like to have staggered harvests so every couple of weeks I plant another couple more feet of them. Though... The patch I did this weekend is probably the last. We still have quite a lot of time left in our growing season before first Frost. Depends on the area but anywhere from 75 to 90 days and if we have a late first Frost it's even longer. But as you point out the bigger issue is how hot it is for us. This past week of 90° days has been really rough on the plants and I'm just glad that it's rained. So we really don't do the whole get ready for winter stuff for another month but if we want to fall garden and we like to plant from seedlings it's good to put those things in pots now so that we can plant them in 6 weeks or so.
Your garden always looks great! Getting ready to start second round of beans & zucchini.. see what happens. High desert zone 5/6 with triple digit temps 🥵🥵 so prob better wait on cool crops a bit longer 👵🏻👩🌾❣️
Great videos which are helping me in my first year as a serious gardener. Got a good selection all growing well, but just noticed some black creepy crawlies all over my broad beans - which are nearly ready to pick - please tell me all is not lost as I was planning on feeding half of Cardiff lol
I ended up with tons of aphids on mine last year - is this what you have? If so, it didn't stop me getting a huge crop from mine, though I'm sure there's a spray out there if you don't want to share with the little blighters ;)
How do you get everything through the hot weather, especially when everything’s so tiny? My ground is so dry, even soaking it morning and evening. Last year I couldn’t get anything young through July and August.
I heard Fennal doesn't like being put by many vegetables. What did you put them by in this video Huw as I couldn't quite work it out. I have grown some and they need to go out.
Hi Huw. Your chard looks fantastic - all the chard I planted this March was attacked by a leaf miner - an insect that sits between the two sides of the leaf and sends them brown - they look sun scorched, but it’s actually this insect eating them from the inside out! Does this also happen with July sown chard - and any tips to prevent it? Thanks!
I'm curious as well. But I do know of an interesting way to keep some pests off of my tomatoes and cucumbers. Plant some tobacco near these plants. The pests will go for the tobacco plants instead! (or at least for most of the growing season).
Hi Huw. I am local to you in Carmarthenshire. Would there be any chance to check out your polycarbonate Shetland polytunnel? I am thinking about buying one for my allotment. Love what you’re doing! Thanks
I had trouble with parsley germination in summer, have been told since that high temps inhibit sprouting. Spring and autumn sowing have been more successful, but a cooler spot maybe..atb
Thank you so much for these wonderful video's! I've learned so much and appreciate all the sound advice. Just a gentle reminder that your video's are global, and the term wigwam is no longer acceptable to many. I know you don't mean to be offensive in the least. Perhaps 'pole tent' instead? All the best.
What? Sorry ma’am, you’re too “woke” for your own good and are talking absolute nonsense. Wigwam is not an insult or a slur, it’s just an ordinary Native American word for a particular type of structure. Please fact check yourself before you embarrass yourself further on your misguided crusade for social justice.
Just to follow up on this a week later - a quick Google search suggested that "wigwam" is fine (along with other linguistic variations), but it refers to a domed structure rather than the conical structure gardeners are more likely to tie bamboo canes into - this would be a tipi/teepee. Anyway, I learned something something today due to these comments. :)
I am really enjoying watching all your videos. I'm a 72 year old lady and have never done any gardening. I've just built a raised garden in my pocket sized garden and am so excited about trying to grow vegetables. Your beginners video was very clear, but you mentioned how everyone makes mistakes. Sadly I don't think I'll have time for that...so I'll have to get it right first tilme 😜. I'm looking forward to many more of your videos
Bless you and I hope you're enjoying your garden and produce!! Always tastes better than shop bought, and that's a fact!! Namaste 🙏💞 Andrea and Critters. ..XxX...
I’m 76 and started on my journey to grow as much as I could in 2020. Yes, mistakes happen, weather doesn’t always cooperate, and you need to protect young crops against birds and other creatures. But don’t give up, keep whacking in those seeds and you will be amazed at what you can grow. Don’t be frightened to experiment or be intimidated by the immaculate plots you often see on TH-cam.

Add leaf lettuce to your list. Both Black Seeded Simpson and Buttercrunch can start providing salad leaves in just a month
I also noticed an experienced gardener at our community garden growing daikon radish after garlic. I tried it and liked it. I also successfully tried white turnip and not so successfully the rutabaga. I'll stick to white and salad, my favourite.
I forgot to mention that the turnips went in after the adjacent bulb onions.

Turnip greens have long been a staple of southern cooking.
1. Kohlrabi
2. Beet Root
3. Fennel
4. Swiss Chard
5. Kale
6. Winter Radish
7. Annual Herbs (Coriander, Parsley, Dill)
8. Greens (Lettuce, Spinach)
9. Turnip
10. Potatoes (blight resistant variety ex Sarpo Mira)
Perfect!
Absolutely excellent saved me a lot of time

Your garden is always beautiful and never buggy!! What are your tips for insect control?
Yes! I was watching this thinking of all the flea beetles who would be happy if I planted my winter radishes now 🤦🏼♀️
Companion planting with lavender, rosemary, marigold helps. I recommend researching integrated pest management sprays using biodegradable soap, citric acid and essential plant oils.
Thank for the list, enjoyed visiting your garden this morning. I am in Texas, we are having never ending rain. Should be a good time for sowing
Herbs are great and I am about to create a new herb bed in the garden. Its the one thing I never concentrate on but its time to amend that

Some great ideas here - thanks. This is only the third season growing from my ten raised beds, with still a lot to learn!
Foxgloves looks so stunning in your garden.
Great idea to grow kale in an unheated greenhouse over winter. Pigeon proof as well. Worth a try. I can compare to outside grown Kale.
It has bigger leaves and is much more tender. I grow it every winter.
Did I miss parsnips? Sometimes, we leave in the ground all winter so they will be sweeter
Nope, for me I find july is too late to sow them as they are slow to germinate and slow to develop
@@NarjunGuillas will do 👌👌
Hi Huw, will home made nettle fertiliser make house smell if i use for indoor plants?

I've never heard the phrase "hungry gap" before. Perfect way to describe that time!
Yep... good idea to seed again for a fall harvest. I just planted beets and radishes 8 )

Great stuff. Where do you get your seeds Huw?
Sorry ignore this, i just got to the end
Are you gardening on a roof top?
I am really enjoying watching all your videos. I'm a 72 year old lady and have never done any gardening. I've just built a raised garden in my pocket sized garden and am so excited about trying to grow vegetables. Your beginners video was very clear, but you mentioned how everyone makes mistakes. Sadly I don't think I'll have time for that...so I'll have to get it right first tilme 😜. I'm looking forward to many more of your videos
Bless you and I hope you're enjoying your garden and produce!!
Always tastes better than shop bought, and that's a fact!!
Namaste 🙏💞

doing your garden is realy the best the commercial ''food '' is not only expensif but is loded with chemical
Good luck with whatever you're growing and enjoy! ❤❤
I’m 76 and started on my journey to grow as much as I could in 2020. Yes, mistakes happen, weather doesn’t always cooperate, and you need to protect young crops against birds and other creatures. But don’t give up, keep whacking in those seeds and you will be amazed at what you can grow. Don’t be frightened to experiment or be intimidated by the immaculate plots you often see on TH-cam.
don't just grow the plants, let the plants grow you
Kohl Rabi, beets, fennel, swiss chard, kale, winter radish, annual herbs, salad (lettuce and spinach), turnips, potato
Thanks. I was going to take notes but didn’t want to disrupt the flow. Now I have the list. Excellent.
Thank you! By the end I've always forgotten half of them.
Thanks, wish this was in the description rather than Crop 1,2,3, etc
Thank you!
