Best remove the cloches during heatwave
The pond doesn’t need the sun, it will go all green and sludgy
Yes, as a rule of thumb, corn should be knee-high by the 4th of July in the US. And it should be planted when oak leaves are as big as a squirrel's ear. We just get it out by April 17th. I'm in Missouri, and while I take care of the other plants, my husband is in charge of the corn. Ours is already tasseling, so with any luck, we'll have corn to pick in a few weeks. We also plant a fall crop of corn as well.
So many things happen at night. Get you a night vision motion camera and see what is happening LOL. I love your videos and adventures. Thank you
😂 the wonders of the allotment surprise of veg now growing and surviving after the start we’ve had (cold, wet and a bonkers amount of slugs!) yay!
Ps the feed DOES absolutely stink, but it's brill to make your own feed!
Just a little tip when it is hot like it has been do not water the foliage of your plants as the sun will burn it off , take your rose off your watering can and water at the bottom of the plant
Hi I water through a pipe keeping the ground as dry as possible helps with slugs also happy gardening Richardx
So glad you took my advice just one thing when you harvest the larger beets first, twist them out so they don’t all come out. I’ve got some wonderful beets x
Pond water can turn brown due to certain leaf litter falling into it and rotting in the water; certain leaves can release tannins into the water when they decompose. You see it a lot when rhododendrons fall into water and rot. 👍🏻
Sun will make the pond green due to the growth of algae
Rocky says you fed me treats last year. Where are this years hahahaha.
Thanks so much Emma great video as always. I wish my plot was doing so well but I have so much rabbit damage, never mind I love the little guys too.
Emma take out the sticks u av an put rocks instead in the pond also I cover my pond in October to march and the water is crystal clear xx
I’ve picked my first peas today, so delicious eaten raw. Just keep them in a bowl and sprinkle over salads.
I don't think Rocky would have messed with your onions. They're toxic to cats and cats are usually smart about such things. 😄
Yay! Rocky!
It's wild this season! Couple of weeks ago nothing was growing because of all the slugs, and today I had to put shade cloth on my greenhouse because it was going above 50C in there with all the window open...
Loving catching up on the last few videos while I’m in Turkey 🇹🇷
Just a thought, what about putting nettles in your water butt? Then having it on tap all year and just keep refreshing it? X
Emma now might be a good time to assess your water storage on your plot. I can't tell if water buts or an ibc will fit behind your shed but worth thinking about. Also not sure if you have water buts on both sides of your shed but that might be on option as well. Just a thought😊
I love ur channel u make me wanna go in my garden and grow stuff so far I av strawberries and blueberries an my apple tree starting to Bloom xx
Hello Emma. There is a good channel about ponds. Wild your garden with Joel Ashton
I chew the pea pods too and just spit the fibre bits out. I prefer sugar snaps and snow peas as the pods are edible too. My daughter who refused to eat peas from time she was a baby, will eat the fresh pea pods The only way she eats peas other than split peas in soup.
Enjoy the warmer weather Emma. Hope you removed the cloches from the dahlias the heat and sunshine can be like an oven and kill them. Btw the knee high by 4th of July is a tell that the corn is growing on good schedule. If it’s not knee high the crop will be late.
Thanks for the tip.
I've grown my sweetcorn in pots.
Sown 1st May.
Planted out 1st June (without potting up).
Weirdly, if you suffer from arthritis or gout, stinging nettles are a natural remidy. Just sting yourself on the affected area. Nettles have been used for thousands of years to reduce inflammation.
Heatwave??? It’s only the low 70s F in London. 😂😂😂 it’s been running in the 90s every day for a couple months and was almost 100F yesterday in Georgia USA.
Hello Garden folk :) I’m a beginner, totally inspired by Emma! I’ve just got my own plot and am super excited to get going. Quick Question, I’m finding it super hard to source my Wood for the Bed borders, any tips? I know I can’t use treated.. but the sleepers in Wickes etc are so expensive, all the decking seems to be treated.. HELP :) I notice Emma’s are thin and tall, these are ideally what I would like.. what are they and where do you think she gets them from? Any advice would be SO appreciated 🙏 💚
I agree, after all the rain we kept getting, it’s worrying not getting to the allotment to water the plants in this high heat. Thank you for the discount, I’ve just ordered some waterproof gloves as have been after some for ages.
where there are nettles there should be dock leaves which rubbed on stings will bring relief

The plants in the cloches may get baked. The temps will sore inside of them.
Hey i heard not to water much now untill u see plants struggle from lagg of water. Carrots will try to find water by rooting deeper witch i think gives u longer carrots. So maby try not to water much only pots or newly planted😊
Let your plants find water themselves witch helps them to be stronger later :)
Hopefully someone can correct me if im wrong 😊
Hi Emma great tip for nettles I've known of comfrey but not done nettles yet but I've loads of them and I shall be copying you ❤thanks
Hi Emma,
Do you think the unions were planted too high? Just curious. Love how Einstein waits for you and calls for your attention! Keep up the good work.
Mike
Peas should grow in good soil, rich, and I think you're right, that patch is not fertile for some reason. Yes, it's likely that soil is unhealthy.
In autumn, mulch heavily, add some composted manure, some coco coir, and dig it into the top 3 inches.
If you can put in a winter cover crop of some kind over that entire bed.
I add worm compost to my own beds in the autumn, allowing the biology to get going over winter when we don't disturb the soil as much.
I learned a few years ago, feed the soil first, then the plants only if needed. I don't use any chemicals, just leaves, compost and let the worms in the soil do all the work for me.
You have trees everywhere, start now collecting the falling leaves in an open air container, this way you do have excellent leaf mould for conditioning the soil, plus a dried mulch to maintain moisture.
Let it sit over winter, adding more leaves as they dry and fall.
Those leaves will add soil fungi, absolutely necessary for good soil.
Liquid feed your Sweetpeas Emma. I do mine every two weeks, seems to help. Your plot is looking great🌺
hi emma i use brown sugar to extract the nutrients from plants there is no smell and it produces aerobic bacteria not anaerobic like the water method
How much do you add please? Also which type of brown sugar, light or dark? Thanks!
I will have to try this! Mine got too stinky, I just couldn’t hang. I had my husband throw out the batch, bucket and all.
Comfrey tea is smelly but I don't find the same with nettles.
@@TraceUK i have a full breakdown on my channel thanks
Your pond needs shading from the sun or it’ll go green
Peas are a snack crop for me, not one makes it into the kitchen 😊
Fantastisch Good work emmas you the best te moostiun te planting thans te video Top week heet België ☀️😅👍🏖️☘️🌱🥒🍹🌻💐33+🍓🌾
Emma, do you have a tap on your allotment? If so, would you not get one of the flexible stretching hose i got a 200 foot one from temu. it's the best thing.
❤
Thanks for 27 subscribers
👍💚🌞🤗
I’m sure that if you had a suit of armour on the nettles would still get you 🙂
Short sleeved t shirt,shorts and garden gloves does the trick😊
Привіт з Укзраїни🖐️🇺🇦
Hello, so sorry for what is happening in Ukraine 😢 x
Slava Ukraini.
We in the UK salute you. You have proven how very brave and resilient you are.
Onions (and all alliums) are toxic to cats so I hope Rocky hasn't been eating them...
