    What a nice find this morning.....your inaugural visit to your season's plot. A big job but I can feel the love coming off you.....I'll enjoy watching the growing unfold. I'm in south central British Columbia (Canada zone 5) and am watching the dripping off the south facing eaves. Alive with all the hope, dreams and potential for this season's fruits and flowers..

      Oh how lovely - thank you for your comment. Funnily enough, I was filming some snippets this morning and I was also watching some ice thawing and dripping from my plot neighbours' various structures. It's definitely exciting to think about the coming season - if a bit daunting! I can't wait to get started though - yes, all that potential!!

      I've seen a few more people on the site now that we're into Feb - it was super quiet over Christmas though, which was lovely...
      Thank you for watching :)

      Thank you John - I'm super excited! Hoping I don't just turn a lovely neat plot into a crazy mess - although, I do want to use a more permaculture approach and have wildlife-friendly bits... so maybe I'll just embrace an intentional crazy mess!

    What an amazing plot! I can’t wait to see how it develops. I’ve dabbled in veg growing in the past, but now we have an enormous garden and plan to take the vegetable growing much more seriously. I look forward to more posts!

    • @dogontheplot

      Ah thank you - it was a beautiful morning - since then it has got progressively cloudier and soggier! But still nice and peaceful.

    • @dogontheplot
      @dogontheplot  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you - I think so too - it was a no brainer with the home garden because I was starting from scratch on grass, but this feels like a whole different ball game - still, I'm determined! No way I want to be digging all of that!!

    You won’t need cardboard with beds that clean. Awesome plot👍

    • @dogontheplot
      @dogontheplot  ปีที่แล้ว

      You're probably right Tony, but can't hurt... I recently found out that the previous plot custodian was also doing no dig - so even more reason not to bother! Still, it'll keep the weeds at bay and the soil warmish while I figure out what I want to put in all the beds. Thank you for watching. I do feel very lucky to have inherited such a nice plot.

      @dogontheplot  ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh I totally meant someone else... awkward... 😂 No - of course it is you - my sole supplier of rabbit poop with added veg peelings. I love the aesthetic of allotments - completely random, mend and make do - but I also hope to beautify my plot with pollinating flowers and massive dahlias. Plans plans plans...

    Glad to have found your Chanel and plot 33, have subscribed. Wonder why the previous owner gave it up considering it’s in such great shape, did they give it up or had they fallen out with the site management, who due to there comment re keeping keeping the grass paths mowed, seem fairly strict. I can see why they offered it to you, giving you and your parents homes being so close. Wish you well with it and look forward to watching your journey.

    • @dogontheplot
      @dogontheplot  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for watching Derek. As I understand it, the previous custodian of the plot has moved away from the immediate area and has since been given a plot on a site closer to his home. I think the site management should be ok... I've heard different stories from different people though! After the comment about the grass paths, he did say that once the plot is mine I'm free to do what I please and woodchip the paths if I want. They look so nice though! - but a pain to walk on in the wet and they're going to take some upkeep... watch this space. Thank you for your well wishes.
