On this episode on the allotment we look at how all the seedlings are doing and open up some mail that has been sent into the channel. We also have a look at how the plants on the plot are progressing.

There we go Adam your first thumbs up on this upload. The lack of rain is a real problem. There is a forecast for rain tonight, fingers crossed. I see your gladioli are up which is good. I am working at present on my root bed which I mulched last October with well rotted Horse manure and I was pleasantly suprised at how damp it was underneath. Till next time take care Mike B
Good update Adam. Yes mother nature is sometimes challenging, dangling a carrot of warm weather then pulling back and surprising us with cold. I hope you get lots of apples based on the lovely flower display.
Looks like Mr Coleman has got some good competition in the onion. He wants me to participate in a parsnip challenge, a east versus west Canadian challenge, I have to get mine ready, still to cold here to put out though. Good luck with your parsnips 🙂
As an aside, on one of the woodworking websites I visit I saw a fidget spinner.
Cheers

Hi Adam, we've also had a rather arid couple of months in Kent. Your near-black tulips are the exquisite Queen Of Night, but what's the white tulip called? They appear to have about the same flowering height & period as the blacks. I've seen a mass planting of a mixture of Blacks & Whites and it blew my mind, it was stunning. Wanna try it myself!
Everything's going in this week bud. Hey…any joy on those sugar pumpkins or butternut? Just wondering. They should last another year if you care not to get them in this season. Thanx for the vid.
Hi Adam, I am wondering, as you are walking to your plot, what is the field of yellow you walked through? Just lovely. Thanks for another great video. Happy Gardening.
Hi Adam, good luck with everything. I too hope to grow a large pumpkin this year. See you soon, Dave.
Flowers all look lovely. Just put in a gooseberry, but it will be years before I get a crop if any size, if it survives. That is not borage. Borage has large hairy leaves with star shaped vivid blue flowers. It smells and tastes like cucumber.
Hey Adam, the begonia corms look totally different with a little color to them.. 🙂 Wow the leaves on the broad beans look like the Pea & Bean Weevil ate the methodically. Ha ha.. peer pressure, I felt it too, getting seeds in.. T
I love watching the digging part of your videos.
