I had a troubled part of the day concerned for my daughter and orhers who cannot prepare to have any food security during this vulnerable time. Whenever I see you have put up a video.....it's, swooosh.....stress gone xxxx
Your supply runs are remarkably similar to mine. Having water at your plot is a blessing. We don't have that. I'm pumping water with a solar panel and electric pump and have a 400 liter gravity based, rainwater filled system.
Jessie when doing carrots use a 10 inch bucket cut a plastic siever bottom out put your seeds in flour you need a match and a top with water in it. put the plastic on top of the compost use the match to pick up the seeds.put one seed every 2 spaces all the way down and you will never get the carrot fly as there is no where for them to go,they cant reach the roots,i use this way every year and never had carrot fly invade the carrots.i guarantee you Success.
Glad I’m not the only one who is in the same place as February with my sowing. Good idea with the carrot box and the asparagus looks lush. Never seen red before 😮
What an adorable little wasp nest, we don't have that type in the US. But definitely not ideal in the shed. 🐝 WOW, the stones and wider beds just looks marvelous. What a difference! The season feels in full swing here too, its lovely! ❤️🌱❤️
Jessie you know its much easier to pull those trollies right? lol Great video. remove the nest that's just a small section the queen will build to raise some workers, then it will grow 50 fold and hundreds of wasps.
…Continued ending to comment… Here’s to you Jessie… with my own ‘Co op Fairtrade Chenin Blanc. Columbard, Semillon’… which is great..🍷but white not red like emoji….Cheers , till the next time…Watercress Woman, Sue
Awesome that you support Fairtrade wines Sue... I work with farm workers here in South Africa who benefit from Fairtrade premium. They have put their premium into some amazing community projects - Thank you!
I have seen those hard plastic closhes in the B&Q type garden centres they had separate ends so you can build a longer length by joining them together.
Sometimes all a leaky Hozelock connector needs is a new washer - think they call them "O" rings - because they perish quite quickly. I picked some up really cheaply on ebay.
Just found you Jessie,so many vids to catch up on (brilliant) love the vids. You’re too young to understand what I mean when I say you have hit the easy viewing sweet spot, cross between Darling buds of May and Lovejoy. inspirational and a joy to watch. Thanks for making me smile. Rob At plot 44 👍
Whoever said you can't teach an old dog new tricks? Even after receiving therapy in & from my garden for 50 years, I've found inspiration anew from your vlogs. I've tried new ways to grow things,sought out & purchased new seed varieties, eaten new foods for the first time, made orange marmalade. The list goes on & on. Continue to share your knowledge, inspire & entertain us, take us new places. Thanks so much 💚 Hope mum feels better soon. EJK from 🇺🇸
There's no need to apologize for long videos. Watching them is one of my favorite things to do when I'm doing my indoor gardening. Right now I'm about to pot up some bean and nasturtium seedlings.
In my experience that is a wasp nest that will grow and grow and grow. Inside all those little chambers a grub will be laid and grow into more waspies.
Hello Jessie, I love your blogs so much I watch them again and again. Lovely days, seeing your progress. Your big plastic cloche is from B&Q - My sister has the same one. I've fallen behind with vlogs and with pricking out on thr plot xx xx
Hi Jessie have you ever thought above learning to drive? You seem to be very organised and getting lots done and there will always be jobs to do on the plot
I love your videos!! You have the most amazing personality & work very hard always seeing the positive while you work!! You truly are an inspiration!! Much love from Kentucky 🐎 🐎 🐎 🐎🤗🦋🤗

Great video Jessie. Just caught up with my sowing as couldn't get up to the allotment because of feeling a bit rough, possibly covid. Nice to sit in the greenhouse sowing seeds & pricking out stuff. Hope your Mum feels better next week.
🙋hi from Scotland hi Jess hope your wee mum will be ok and be back to give you a hand ,great vidio as usual I am a bit like this year away behind in sowing some if my seeds you will be ok you can catch up the produce you have on your plot st the moment looks amazing I spent to day getting a couple of my big beds at my allotment ready for planting up do I am nearly there only thing is it's far to bloody cold to plant anything out it is still frosty here at night pain in the butt still having to fleece everything thing in the potting shed and greenhouses take care till next time cheers 🍷🍷 Anne from Scotland
You made me smile with your B&Q 'sticks". I reckon they're called 'battens". Another great vlog, showing the work needed to keep an allotment looking lovely as well as practical. Most people wouldn't have a clue of the amount of time needed to have one.
No water yet at our allotment, the main connection was vandalised & we are a low priority, apparently! Enjoyed first strawberries 🍓 from the poly though yesterday, delish! Great vlog again Jess, inspiring, fun & very relaxing too, cheers!
Looking forward to your garden tour 😀 enjoyed this vlog as well ♡ I've been as busy as you I believe, Spring is the busiest time for sure, but I love it. Just turned 60 and I don't wanna stop. Cheers Jesse 🍻 ❤️
If you happen to come to the west Suffolk area in the near future, I have both red and orange bell pepper plants spare. Otherwise, hope they come in to a garden centre near you soon x
Another great Vlog Jessie , particularly loved the carott frame you make it look so easy 😀, missed your mum tell her I say hi and to look after herself and get well soon , loved your appearance with Tony Smith and Steve alongside JB was a great night very informative but time went so quick , keep up the good work Jessie 👍💕
But.....Pumpkins are so much fun! ;-) I went for more variaty this year. Normaly its green and orange uchi kuri and now i found the crown prince ( not a easy one to find in belgium) and the marina di coccio, since, well.... you inspired me xx
Jessie I'm all behind with my sowings too. Its a bit cold up here though, so I've got a lot of stuff indoors. Sorry about your Toadflax, I haven't sown mine yet but its my next job (along with all the others). Your allotment is looking lush. Happy gardening and I hope your Mum is back with us soon.
Wow very cute wasp nest. Mine over here are paper wasps. Their nests are pretty cool too, and they are so docile. I tried moving a few of their nests but I think they don't like it lol. They seem to have preferred locations. Even when nests naturally fall off, they just try to rebuild., even when I tell them their nests just keep falling off of there!
Eek! It's scary watching you use that knife speeded up. Glad to see you have found so many uses for it tho🙂. I too am beginning to feel I will never catch up but somehow we always do.
Hi Jessie Good video to night . How's mum . It was good to see you on the live show on Monday night love your videos Good to see you without the glass of wine lol lol me sitting here with a glass of red wine lol ok Your tips are very good . How many chickens have you got . Are they hard work . I was thinking of getting some my self . John. From Scotland
I got of potatoes planted in my bags using old compost with some potato fert. I planted my peas on top like I did last year. Planted out my lettuce and sweet peas but both under fleece, hopefully will be as abundant as last year. I had the same disaster with my celeriac seedlings I put in my growhouse and didn’t open any of the doors, a similar cloche/cover can be bought from crocus/Waitrose garden.
Another great video. l also love your blog. We grow rosemary near our bbq as we use the stems as skewers to cook cubes of meat/veg. l grow a small salads plot( containers) plus herb teas, near the shed so l can pick quickly for when we have lunch. My paths are chamomile paths so l don't need to lawn mow and lovely to walk on bare foot.
Morning ladies, it looks like a paper or mud wasp nest I’ll post a pic on Instagram of the one that we had last year 😂😂 it was huge. I’m going to try chard again but we prefer the cabbage style leaves and kale. Hopefully mom gets better soon and enjoying the sunshine. It’s all guns a blazing now isn’t it 😂 but in a good way. Well I hope you both have a great week 🐝 safe get well ❤️🩹 mom ps I’ve taken the TH-cam plunge 😂😂
The path looks lovely, think I might have a go at making some frames, you made it look very easy. Hope your lovely mum is on the mend very soon. I'm still catching up with your previous vlogs I'm up to 25 at the moment,still got a long way to go. Have a great week.
Haha I nearly walked out of B&Q without my replacement hose parts because I didn't realise there was another whole shelf just round the corner with the other brand! Why not try planting some seeds from a red pepper you eat?
I use the exact same bricks for the exact same reason Jessie! Plot is looking great. Really looking forward to the tour. Love to your Mum, hope she is on the improve.
yer leaky thingy is probably just the 'O'ring perished ... you should be able to get replacements pretty darn cheap (pence rather than pounds for a new fitting ...
Dulma with those green chard would be so tasty😁..you can make the filling with cooked white rice and lots of chopped fresh parsley, onion, garlic, spices, olive oil, etc..or you can use mincemeat instead of the rice plus the rest of the ingredients. Fiddly to make but Yum yum😋
Jess I have some corgett seeds we call them cucumbers but happy to send some to you if you can’t find any. I may have squash seeds as well. Let me know I’m happy to send some to you!
I love asparagus & am growing it for the 1st time..such a great allotment..Im going to go buy bricks for my edges Enjoyable video.Cheers from Sydney, Australia 🙂
I am impressed by the carrots and would very much appreciate a video on carrot growng. In fact, some videos on your successes with individual veg would be super appreciated. It is a little difficult to remember where all the gem tips are xxx
That wasps nest is beautiful, wonder if it's been abandoned already. I'd keep it as an ornament, but then again I'm a weirdo. It's a shame those poppies weren't up at the pond border you've just made bigger. Typical they'd take root by the chicken house!
Hi Jess, good job on the edging, it looks really lovely ❤️ I saw you last night taking part in Tony Smith live streaming, although, i had forgotten it was on so only watched the last 10 mins. I would like to ask how you cook the radishes, you were explaining to the other Guy how much milder they taste when oven baked. What size wood and screws did you use to make your frame. I would like to make one as its brilliant and easy to just pop on and take off when needed. All your plants are looking really good thanks for sharing and take care 🙂
Thanks Christine! The radishes just go in the oven with a bit of olive oil and salt... absolutely delish! 19x38 roofing battons and 32 screws i believe!
Yeah, keep sowing, planting and sowing seeds....don't concern yourself with too many social engagements just now....we are in a dark place and we all need to act like ants...keep growing, saving, storing and learning skills.
Squash those bugs! They kill my squash every year. Chickens love grasshoppers and other bugs I find. This week they’ve been finding a dead mouse in their water to fight over almost every day so that tells me the snake that hangs out by the chicken coup will be around as soon as it’s warmer. Do you get pests around your chickens?
Have your chickens got mites or are they moulting ? because they have no feathers on their heads. Try spaghetti squash it’s lovely with melted butter 👌🏻 You will have to learn to drive then you will have freedom to come and go especially as your mum is not to nimble lately. Hope she gets better soon I have degenerative disc disease so I know how back pain can run you down and make your body feel like you have no energy.
Hi Julie, they are just coming back from a moult. I'm really not a fan of spaghetti squash and don't need to drive to get to the plot. Its just the delivery of bricks!
Phew…..I got behind on the videos before Christmas and have just now caught up. I went from Jan to current in about a week. 😂😂. Quick question, did you have to hand pollinate your indoor early cucumbers?
I had a troubled part of the day concerned for my daughter and orhers who cannot prepare to have any food security during this vulnerable time. Whenever I see you have put up a video.....it's, swooosh.....stress gone xxxx
so true, as soon as the video start i feel my stress level go down
Ah, thanks Lynn :)

Edging makes a good presentation
Jessie you know its much easier to pull those trollies right? lol Great video. remove the nest that's just a small section the queen will build to raise some workers, then it will grow 50 fold and hundreds of wasps.
We had one the size of a cantaloupe built right in husbands sand blast box 😂😂 I’ll post on Instagram

Lovely allotment expertly managed
Thank you Jessie for another beautiful, soul warming video. Love to Mum, may her aches and pains be gone and her hands back in the soil. 🙏🌱❤️
:) thanks you Stephanie!
I have seen those hard plastic closhes in the B&Q type garden centres they had separate ends so you can build a longer length by joining them together.
Oh, thats sounds great. I will look out for them next time!
Sometimes all a leaky Hozelock connector needs is a new washer - think they call them "O" rings - because they perish quite quickly. I picked some up really cheaply on ebay.
Yes, that’s it. O rings for hoses
Unfortunately the plastic has cracked and its leaking from there!
@@JessieatPlot37 Oh dear. Sorry I wasn't any help.
Try replacing the rubber washer in your hose connection
I was hoping that was the problem Jennifer but annoyingly the plastic has cracked!
Just found you Jessie,so many vids to catch up on (brilliant) love the vids. You’re too young to understand what I mean when I say you have hit the easy viewing sweet spot, cross between Darling buds of May and Lovejoy. inspirational and a joy to watch. Thanks for making me smile.

Good luck on the sowing front🤞🤞🤞
Well done Jessie, lovely job with that edging looks good. Your amazing. Really enjoy your videos.
In my experience that is a wasp nest that will grow and grow and grow. Inside all those little chambers a grub will be laid and grow into more waspies.
You do amazingly well
I hope Mum feels better soon! Bless her! Your cheerful self was great company for lunch! : )

Cheers Jessie really enjoyed watching, wishing Muma a speedy recovery. Blessings to you and yours Luv Ontario Canada 🐝
Thanks Beverley! I'm hoping she'll be back up and running soon!
Thanks. I was having a stressful Ahhhh day. Legal paperwork. Now, I feel calm 😌
:D
Great job with that edging. I have carried so many of those heavy things too. It really improves the looks of the beds
Its worth it in the end isn't it!
Another lovely vlog Jessie. 😊Highlight of my week. Thank you and cheers 🥂🌞
Thank you Carol!

It's great seeing you use your hori hori, I LOVE mine . My favorite tool. I wish I had the space for asparagus, I love asparagus.
You made me smile with your B&Q 'sticks". I reckon they're called 'battens". Another great vlog, showing the work needed to keep an allotment looking lovely as well as practical. Most people wouldn't have a clue of the amount of time needed to have one.
The guys in the timber merchant always called them sticks and its stuck with me. hahaah!
No water yet at our allotment, the main connection was vandalised & we are a low priority, apparently! Enjoyed first strawberries 🍓 from the poly though yesterday, delish! Great vlog again Jess, inspiring, fun & very relaxing too, cheers!
Ah thats pants Gina! Any idea when it'll be back on?
@@JessieatPlot37 we are back on, waterwise! Successful plants sale yesterday , lots of locals as well as plot holders, feels good 👍
Hugs & prayers mum feels better! Happy planting
Thanks Lee Ann!
Looking forward to your garden tour 😀 enjoyed this vlog as well ♡ I've been as busy as you I believe, Spring is the busiest time for sure, but I love it. Just turned 60 and I don't wanna stop. Cheers Jesse 🍻 ❤️
If you happen to come to the west Suffolk area in the near future, I have both red and orange bell pepper plants spare. Otherwise, hope they come in to a garden centre near you soon x
Ah, thanks Louise!
most the time when hose fittings are leaking its just that the little rubber O ring needs replacing.
I had hoped that was the case Alexander, but the plastic has cracked :(
Another great Vlog Jessie , particularly loved the carott frame you make it look so easy 😀, missed your mum tell her I say hi and to look after herself and get well soon , loved your appearance with Tony Smith and Steve alongside JB was a great night very informative but time went so quick , keep up the good work Jessie 👍💕
Jessie, I enjoyed the visit so much. Such a beautiful garden. Thank you for all the things you share with us.
Another great blog. Hope your mum is better soon. Xx
Thanks Jean and i hope so too!
But.....Pumpkins are so much fun! ;-) I went for more variaty this year. Normaly its green and orange uchi kuri and now i found the crown prince ( not a easy one to find in belgium) and the marina di coccio, since, well.... you inspired me xx
The bricks make your border look so polished👍👍 You have inspired me to plant asparagus for the first time ever 🙂
Thank you! And yes! Asparagus really is worth the wait. :D
Jessie I'm all behind with my sowings too. Its a bit cold up here though, so I've got a lot of stuff indoors. Sorry about your Toadflax, I haven't sown mine yet but its my next job (along with all the others). Your allotment is looking lush. Happy gardening and I hope your Mum is back with us soon.
Ah, the toadflax... so annoying when that happens isn't it! Re-sow!
Great vlog Jessie and your mum
Thanks Hamish!
And you're super strong, shifting all those bricks and all that digging and edging. A right proper DIYer, lol.
Wow very cute wasp nest. Mine over here are paper wasps. Their nests are pretty cool too, and they are so docile. I tried moving a few of their nests but I think they don't like it lol.

Good video to night . How's mum .
It was good to see you on the live show on Monday night love your videos
Good to see you without the glass of wine lol lol me sitting here with a glass of red wine lol ok

Hoping “mum” is well….all the best to her….growing old is the pits…..always look forward to your postings…..regards from Australia😀🌶🥒🐓
Best of luck on the sowing front Jessie.
Thanks Liam!
Loved that wasp nest ! lovely video .
Thanks Joan!
I got of potatoes planted in my bags using old compost with some potato fert. I planted my peas on top like I did last year.

I had the same disaster with my celeriac seedlings I put in my growhouse and didn’t open any of the doors, a similar cloche/cover can be bought from crocus/Waitrose garden.

Haha I nearly walked out of B&Q without my replacement hose parts because I didn't realise there was another whole shelf just round the corner with the other brand! Why not try planting some seeds from a red pepper you eat?
We tend to buy romano red peppers from the shop if we have to because the bell peppers don't seem to have much flavour, which is annoying!
I use the exact same bricks for the exact same reason Jessie! Plot is looking great. Really looking forward to the tour. Love to your Mum, hope she is on the improve.
Lovely stuff Jess and omg them blocks they give hundreds away on market place on Facebook but it's looking nice x
Thanks Gary. Yeah, they are always being given away until you need them (in my experience...hahaah!)
yer leaky thingy is probably just the 'O'ring perished ... you should be able to get replacements pretty darn cheap (pence rather than pounds for a new fitting ...
I was hoping that was the problem but on closer inspection the plastic has cracked and its coming through there! pants!
That is so pretty Jessie!
:D
I’m so jealous of your lettuces… I’ve gone from having loads to I just can’t get the little aids to germinate now 😂😂😂
Dulma with those green chard would be so tasty😁..you can make the filling with cooked white rice and lots of chopped fresh parsley, onion, garlic, spices, olive oil, etc..or you can use mincemeat instead of the rice plus the rest of the ingredients. Fiddly to make but Yum yum😋
I love Dulma Sue! Make them with the vine leaves from our vine. Delish!
@@JessieatPlot37 yes I do too but with chard is so good too and easy to fold😁. 😋
Every year we have those wasp cocoons in our shed. They are so amazing !!
Gorgeous things!
The path looks fabulous 💚
go to Adrian Hall or Longacres... they have all the tomato varieties and peppers too. picked up a load from Longacres today
Ah, did you? I might pop down to Adrian Hall. Thank you!
Jess I have some corgett seeds we call them cucumbers but happy to send some to you if you can’t find any. I may have squash seeds as well. Let me know I’m happy to send some to you!
Ah, thank you so much. I eventually found some but i appreciate the offer!
I love asparagus & am growing it for the 1st time..such a great allotment..Im going to go buy bricks for my edges Enjoyable video.Cheers from Sydney, Australia 🙂
I am impressed by the carrots and would very much appreciate a video on carrot growng. In fact, some videos on your successes with individual veg would be super appreciated. It is a little difficult to remember where all the gem tips are xxx
I started doing a few of them back last year but they've kind of dropped off. Its a bit much doing two videos a week for me!
That wasps nest is beautiful, wonder if it's been abandoned already. I'd keep it as an ornament, but then again I'm a weirdo.
It's a shame those poppies weren't up at the pond border you've just made bigger. Typical they'd take root by the chicken house!
Its gorgeous isn't it! And yeah, they would never self seed like a carpet where i actually wanted them... hahaah!
great vlog the plot looks so vibrant and lovely, mine is still so empty wish I had your green fingers xxx
You'll have it all green in no time!
I’m deciding too not grow many squash too this year! I still have a few 👀
Looks like the girls are doing good. I catch myself calling my little dog girlie instead of Daisy ! I guest I’m watching you’ll to much. Just kidding!
Hahaah! Girlies all round! :D
I really need to make cages myself this year! Yours look fab x I hope your mum feels better soon x
Great stuff Jessie, I'm learning a great deal from your channel, still waiting on news of my allotment, but its happening soon. ATB.
Fingers crossed for VERY soon! :D
How can you not like yellow courgettes? They are divine xx
Hi Jess, good job on the edging, it looks really lovely ❤️ I saw you last night taking part in Tony Smith live streaming, although, i had forgotten it was on so only watched the last 10 mins. I would like to ask how you cook the radishes, you were explaining to the other Guy how much milder they taste when oven baked. What size wood and screws did you use to make your frame. I would like to make one as its brilliant and easy to just pop on and take off when needed. All your plants are looking really good thanks for sharing and take care 🙂
Thanks Christine!
The radishes just go in the oven with a bit of olive oil and salt... absolutely delish! 19x38 roofing battons and 32 screws i believe!
@@JessieatPlot37 thank you Jessie x
Loved it
Thanks Paul!
Another great video, Jessie, thanks! And I'd love to know what wine you're drinking at the end of each one. Worth a mention! :-)
Jess ..do something with that wasps nest, before it gets too big, you won’t want that in your shed, I promise you, we have had one a few years ago x
I know, i realy do need to do something about it!
Yeah, keep sowing, planting and sowing seeds....don't concern yourself with too many social engagements just now....we are in a dark place and we all need to act like ants...keep growing, saving, storing and learning skills.
Always wondered what your process was for creating frames for your beds. The asparagus looks so good. Hope your Mum feels better soon. :-)
Thanks Genevieve!
Squash those bugs! They kill my squash every year. Chickens love grasshoppers and other bugs I find. This week they’ve been finding a dead mouse in their water to fight over almost every day so that tells me the snake that hangs out by the chicken coup will be around as soon as it’s warmer. Do you get pests around your chickens?
Mice and snakes! Your chickens have a much more exciting time than mine! :D
Re: the cloches. Thomas & Morgan do something similar or there is the really lovely Agr Kitchen garden cloche if you have £75 to spend :-)
Planted my first asparagus this year.....I think it will be hard not to harvest next spring.
Have your chickens got mites or are they moulting ? because they have no feathers on their heads.
Try spaghetti squash it’s lovely with melted butter 👌🏻
You will have to learn to drive then you will have freedom to come and go especially as your mum is not to nimble lately.
Hope she gets better soon I have degenerative disc disease so I know how back pain can run you down and make your body feel like you have no energy.
Hi Julie, they are just coming back from a moult.
I'm really not a fan of spaghetti squash and don't need to drive to get to the plot. Its just the delivery of bricks!
*professional camera skills* 🤣🤣🤣
hahaha!
Phew…..I got behind on the videos before Christmas and have just now caught up. I went from Jan to current in about a week. 😂😂. Quick question, did you have to hand pollinate your indoor early cucumbers?
🙂
Oh my gosh you need to get rid of that wasps nest before it gets massive and you won’t be able to get in the shed
Have you tried google lens with those bugs on the chard? I have a feeling they are not friendly. Thank you for the vlog.
