  1. Just found your allotment over the weekend. Found it really good and have subscribed . My partner and I have just taken on a plot in Rushington West Sussex 2 weeks ago and are really soured on by your videos. Wouldn't like to say what the seeds are though!!!!! Really enjoyable so keep up the good work. Roger n Jenny F.

  2. Great update, the earth is waking up!! As to your seeds, I'll guess a pepper of some kind. Just an idea, but if you put the other frame at the end of the bed you have the first one in, you could put chicken wire or trellis material in between and create a walk way/hallway of beans and peas. Thanks for the vid!

  3. Put netting up on trellis, we grow these on trellis: peas, beans, small melons that don't slip, vining squash( summer or winter type up to 8 lbs), & cucumbers. Some people grow tomatoes up strings on a trellis, but I get way too much hot sun to do that.
    As to the mystery seedling, it looks fleshy and I haven't got any idea what it is.
    I think that the red flower looks like stock but not positive.
    Allotment looks great.

  4. I'm guessing sweet peas.  Try some melons on the frames Adam.  I am still waiting for the snow to go from my garden but have started sowing onions, kale, lettuce and sweet peas indoors.  Cheers Dave

  5. Wow there's a lot here you have asked to reply on. My wife and I watched it together but I can only give one thumbs up. Broad Beans great. Did mine straight into the ground. We have mice, looks like I have 100% firing, now was this down to the coffee grounds? I think the seed is a Sunflower. Got a thump in the arm which hurt, for your fence which I think is terrific. Dont worry about mistakes I make them. He who does not make mistakes has built nothing. Sweet peas are favourites for the frames. Metal wigwam good buy, don't rely on superglue or araldite unless you stik a hoop over the top to keep it tpgether. Crimins is a bit of a reminder of my days as a chorister Open your books boys ae aill sing all things bright and beautiful to Crimin
    Have a good day Mike B

  6. Hi Adam, I do hope you have success with the spuds I sent you. As long as you keep them watered they will be fine and tasty. I know what, I could find a good use with those frames you have acquired. Looking forward to the next bid. Dave.

  7. just a wild guess on the seedling , lemon tree? . As for the trellis how about that novelty squash from Italy , trombolini or a Vining cucumber? A very idyllic spot you have there.

  8. Hey Adam, I'm going to say the seedling is sweet peas, based on last years planting you planted the sweet peas and broad beans around the same time. The pallet looks good Adam even from a distance.. ha ha. I see you like all the tepee like trellis. Now if you not going to use the one you used last year, you can send that over too me. 🙂 Nice tour, hopefully all your plans work out. T

  9. Have you thought about squash plants growing over the frames? I had a great crop of butternut round mine last year – I'm going to try James Wong tromboncinos this year. The pallets you've done are a great idea – herbs would look good if you blocked the bottoms :0)

  10. cucumber a recon lol 😉 them frames a would of but both in the one bed at each end and wired between, two rows of beans, peas or whatever grown over the top fruit would hand down for easy harvesting
