    You Sir should have a honorary Doctorate. So much actionable intelligence. Not just book knowledge. I hope to one day be as gifted. What a blessing

      @@stinksterrekerinski4450 Could not agree more. Anyway, most people with doctorates have no interest in gardening-they are too full of themselves-so this does not apply to Charles-he's too smart!!

    It really is the most beautiful time of year in the veg garden. Morning mists, everything dripping with dew makes all the veg take on different hues. What a wonderful garden tour. Never the end, just the beginning of another season. Thankyou Charles for all your thoughts and positivity.

    Charles, you can try what i did in my Greenhouses to grow strawberries up out of the reach of animals and crawling bugs. I hung cheap lightweight aluminum gutters on the walls of the GH and filled them with compost and a single irrigation tube lengthwise that distributes compost tea and/or Aquaculture tank effluent to feed everything that grows in the GH.

    • @CharlesDowding1nodig
      @CharlesDowding1nodig  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes Bermuda grass is more difficult.
      I've had feedback from several people who have eliminated it 100% with the No-Dig method, first laying thick cardboard and then some compost on top, and then regularly removing the regrowth until it weakens, finally stopping altogether.
      However you have to be persistent for about a year, to reach this beautiful state. We have similar with Convolvulus here

    Really beautiful garden as always a joy to see.
    I think of aphids as part of a process of modulation which overall has far wider benefits for the garden that we may not notice unless we really sit and observe the entire life cycles of all of our plants and any visitors.
    Aphids have evolved in coexistence with plants, as have insects generally, not just for pollination.
    For sure since the Cotton industry coated the seeds with BTi to prevent the worm, which was very successful in eradication. However, what happened next was a previously non pest insect, the stink bug, became a new challenge for the growers of cotton, it was or is thought that the worm in fact modulated the cotton plants which upgraded the plants defense and so the stink bug could never predate the plant. I guess we might need to be more careful before we react.
    Thanks always

My pantry shelves are full, the freezer is bulging at the seams and the root cellar is full of potatoes, carrots, beets, onions and squash....a very good year here. Cheers Charles, your videos have inspired my garden greatly and this coming spring will be my best season yet I figure with my compost at peak production now, 3 bays full with 2 ready in spring to spread out.

The whole day was just perfect, he has amazing staff, the course content is great and the lunch provided was superb.Charles is a very down to earth,friendly man.

    English cucumbers are the best in my opinion. In my climate I grow seminole pumpkins, do absolutely nothing to them, and harvest hundreds of pounds from maybe 18 plants and...they store for over a year, amazing fruit. The British Isles have such good weather for growing almost anything, cool weather, rain, mild winters. Here its either hot as Satans' armpit with too much rain, or off and on frosts in winter. Most of the things this fellow grows in summer I can only do in winter, and then only the frost resistant things. I manage :) Thanks for the vid Charles.

    Fantastic tour, thankyou.Your garden looks wonderful. I picked up a great tip for growing strawberries from Steve's seaside allotment, I now grow them in hanging baskets in the tunnel. It might be a solution to keep the badgers away.

    Noticing the wonder's of growing veg and the natural world is a wonderful gift, I find it's the constant looking forward to the next season, planting, preparing keeps you looking ahead and never ending excitement.Going back to the comment about marriage mill I spoke to one of the marriage family he said that the doves farm marriage's is in fact his first cousin just thought I'd let you know thanks Paul

    We started in March with nothing but some ideas and Charles's books. And we have advanced well into autumn planting with a lot!
    I wish I could post some photos.

    Charles this morning I picked the best harvest from my Spring Garden- Lettuce/aubergines (huge & bush going nuts still) / cabbage / tomatoes (last I think) / spring onions /celery & potatoes (yes me potatoes). I have never been so excited but unfortunately we have the rain event coming so might be a battle for awhile. Who cares as long as everyone is safe. Cheers Denise- Australia
