Even though you are on the other side of the pond your winter is like mine in nw arkansas. You are very informative and give me plenty of ideas on what to plant. Thank you.
Brilliant info Jessie, gave me the insight to get my 'winter sow on'. Thanks for taking the time to inform us, especially us relative newbies to allotments x
Hi jessie i love your positive mind in this strange time i am planing to have a garden and i learned a lot from you i realy apreciate you share your knowledge with us and i am iranian from canada and i will try iranian crees for sure to see what my rigen offers and by the way i love the way you and your mother manage your garden to gather if one day you have a daughter she will be poroud of having such a positive mother
I do too. You Miss, got me through the pandemic, halfway sane. My Florida garden didn’t do so well this year, but I can grow in fall and winter, so gonna try some new stuff.
I lost all enthusiasm for sowing seeds last month. Sown some spinach, spring cabbage, radicchio and pak Choi. All the seedlings grew well then the aphids hit, pretty much stopped growing well. Last weekend started them off again after the joy of seeing a coffee bean sprout (waited 8 month) and a bat flower sprout. This year I’ve a bit of success with the vegetables I’ve grown (cauliflower, kohlrabi, cabbages, peas and mangetout). Cress regrows, I’m not a believer but I will try it
It has been a 'sh....'year but I somehow grew an ant-like attitude to nests being damaged and transferred it to trays of seedings getting attackedand just keep sowing, over and over and over. It seems to be working!
@@JessieatPlot37 where I live, I don’t get much of a growing season anyway so I’ve used fleece and had some good harvested. Just selective over what I grow and where.
Hi Jessie, super video with so much great advice! That lovely hat looks great with your eyes. I think your chalk board is a fab idea too! Love to the Girly Whirlies, thanks for another great vlog! 😊❤
Great choices Jess. Looking forward to watching and learning how you sow, grow and harvest in the greenhouse. I bought a glass one similar to yours (6x8), but have been hesitant to grow anything in it, afraid I’ll kill everything. I made a small poly-tunnel early spring this year for my seedlings, which were spouted indoors (and way to early, ha!). I am typically an outdoor, no dig grower. Oh yea! Christmas Potatoes! 🎅🏻🎄🥔🥔🥔♥️
Definitely get some things going in the glass house! They are such excellent spaces to grow in. I agree with the ‘generally outdoors’ growing though. 😄
Just a thought Jess; Have you tried thin slicing the radishes and fermenting them? OMG! Looses the hard crunch and develops a whole new flavor. (not that sour pickle flavor) Bonus; it stores without refrigeration!
my sweet peppers have grown great in my polytunnel, 46 peppers on one plant. though mine are in a row behind the back (wooden) door so in the shade through the afternoon, starting to ripen now. a couple of them have just finished their second round of flowering. very good year for me with peppers, even with the slow start to the year. (southwest england) just pulled most my onions, again, best year to date. pretty much all lettuce has bolted through the year. perpetual spinach, bolted!!!! considering harvesting seeds from them.
Hi love your garden and your chickens. You mention awhile ago that you cut down your peppers for them to come back the following year. How much do you cut off. Can I keep my peppers in my unheated greenhouse. Thank you. You are great
Your not the only one with no melons, I had lots of baby melons that went yellow then fell off. Tomato’s are doing fine except the skins are quite thick and my peppers well two plants never had any flowers on them in fact one is still 2 inches high and bitten another one grew a pepper that was meant to be long it grew roughly 4 inches then stopped I waited for it to turn red but when I looked the stem had been bitten nearly through and I think that’s what stopped it growing. The third pepper was again small so in desperation I pulled it out shook the dirt off and put it in a pot with compost it now has produced 6 flower that I’m waiting to flower so after I picked my pepper I have potted that and they are both in the conservatory. 🤞🏻.
I'm growing some potatoes for the winter too. I put them in bags in the greenhouse and so far they are doing well! Just have to hope the blight avoids the greenhouse 🙄. I may well do some carrots too and thinking about kale, but we've had such an issue with whitefly for the past 2 growing seasons. After a bad year for melons last year, I have a pretty decent crop this year 💜
Great video thank you Jess. Could you say how you cook the greens as I just don’t know what to do with them. I’m trying to tell my taste buds that they like greens but they don’t on just cooked on their own haha🤗🤗
I feel like we will get an early fall this year. Normally I’ll have 80’s end of October into November but we already have cooler mornings and evenings so it feels like it’s coming early. I do have some broccoli, cabbage and spinach going. Oh and I have some sugar baby watermelons about 3 weeks In and they are only 55 days till harvest.
Hi Jess. Me again sorry: what are the metal structures you use over your beds before attaching netting etc. I’m building my beds now finally managed to get some brassicas planted and bought a covered cage. But I’m not liking it too much as it doesn’t seem to stable. So I thought I’d try your wire idea, bending over the beds. Can you advise where you got them from. Off to get black 20L tubs. Monday. Yippee we will be ready potato planting in Jan. allotment coming on. Now on week 4. Yippee Kimx
Morning ladies hope your doing well. I have put out brokali, cabbage, kale and some spinach. Carrots (Parisienne round) in pots in greenhouse and since you are 😂I will try more spinach in pots in greenhouse too. I have also sown some 45 day rapini. I had never noticed before how many Dragon Tongue varieties of veg there are either 👅👅. No melons here either flower yes fruit nope. Everything looks fantastic and lush. Thank you for sharing 🇨🇦👍🐝 safe Ali (😂😂Alison)
Hahahahah! Sorry Ali(son)! Total assumption! 😅😂 Mum has gathered all the poppy varieties you sent into a little box a coos over them regularly. Thank you again!
So nice to see a very quick follow up video from your last one. Then you came up with Turnips. I have been doing succession planting and my family have had enough of it. How do you prepare yours apart from roasting?
I'm trying chijimisai for the first time this year! They are about a month old now and taste a bit like spinach. A little earthy with the heat we've been getting.
I started field beans in pots last week.....first time so any advise is welcome. I heard you can eat the tender leaves. Not sowing any beans or peas now as we have an enthusiadtic gardening mouse family that likr to dig them up and replant them elsewhere....they are actually quite asute gardeners!
"They taste like optimism." Wonderful!
Even though you are on the other side of the pond your winter is like mine in nw arkansas. You are very informative and give me plenty of ideas on what to plant. Thank you.
Thanks Thomas!
Love these seed sowing vids ... thanks for the time you've taken to put it up 🥕👍
Thanks Tracy! They are really good for me to do at the start of each month - gets me in gear! 😅
Brilliant info Jessie, gave me the insight to get my 'winter sow on'. Thanks for taking the time to inform us, especially us relative newbies to allotments x
Thanks Carl. Doing these What to Sow videos is really useful for me too… lol! Sorting out what I need to get done!
I am also trying for Christmas potatoes this year for the first time. Here goes!
Great vid as always, love your enthousiasm and spirit.
Always looking forward to a next video.
Thanks Thomas!
I am guessing we'll have a heat wave 3rd week of Decembe and the indoor spinach etc will bolt....lol!! Fun year!!
Hahahahahha…. Don’t!
Yay. Baker Creek Seeds. The best and most reliable company. I'm growing chiji for the first time
They are excellent!

Thanks for suggestions, don't normally grow late, but will this year. I GOT MELONS! Minnesota Migets. Love your enthusiasm.
Awesome info as usual, Jessie🌱

pretty much all lettuce has bolted through the year. perpetual spinach, bolted!!!! considering harvesting seeds from them.
Pretty much no peppers at all for me!
Winter density lettuce excellent in greenhouse or outside great variety and will sit all winter and come back to life in spring.
Yes I know, just not that keen on the flavour!
OohPak Choi, lambs lettuce & rocket.......more goodies for Hugo‼️🐢👌
Thanks Jessie
Cheers 🥂
Hahahah! And for you, Lynn!
Thanks for a run through on your Sept sowing, really useful info Jessie
Enjoy watching

I have been sowing seeds for a week and ran out of room to sow more ❤ another great vlog, ty
And I'm like you on sowing spring( bunching) onions all season
webbs wonderfull in a cold frame have been brilliant for me
You give me hope! I’m trying again.

I gave up on Webbs. I can't be without a bit of Lobjoits if only to ask family if they want some so I can say Lobjoits. Crispy and juicy!
Oooooh, nice. Lobjoits!
Have you tried putting some lettuce in a hanging basket?
steamed torch ginger flower
Great.. great minds think alike. Agree with mum over corn salad..like really?? 😅 but can't abide turnip.
Hahahah! I am a fan of both! 😄
Good luck with the potatoes Jessie, mine are coming up and getting the blight as soon as they surface 🙄
Gah! I fear that might be the case here too Janet!
nice video
Thanks!

HAVE YOU TRIED MORTONS SECRET MIX OF LETTUCE FROM REAL SEEDS, ITS A REALLY NICE MIX
Chiminy rapper I’d not heard of, look forward to the recipe
So delicious!
What is the secret with spring onions as mine have barely grown.
Same here!
I started field beans in pots last week.....first time so any advise is welcome. I heard you can eat the tender leaves.

Ah yeah mice + beans/peas… 😅
Are you growing them to eat? (The field beans, not the mice)
@@JessieatPlot37 Well, mostly to condition the soil but the clincher was when someone said the leaves are tender and tasty.
Great info! Thank you Jessie! What Zone are you growing in?
I’m really not sure. I have no idea about u.s zones. But according to Google London is about zone 9.
@@JessieatPlot37 wow! much warmer than here, I'm growing on 6b. Thank you
No garlic?
