  1. I Love Mr. Charles Dowding! I appreciate his wisdom and willingness to share it with us all. What can I say about his Beauliful garden beds that hasn't been more gracefully put by others. I have learned a lot about gardening edibles from people like Mr. Dowding and yourself. For all your willingness to share and efforts to teach us all, I thank you from the bottom of my heart! 😉

  2. So glad he spoke about leeks and broad beans. I live in Florida USA and have never tried either of them. I am going to try and grow them this fall, and am very excited about both of them.

  3. Hi! I am starting a garden, but I have an important question; "Should I plant the tallest plant rows (the length) going from East to West, or North to South?" I don't want to shade out smaller plants, but I am confused..

  4. Very very interested in Charles no dig techniques..so so sick of weeding on my knees with my knife…soul destroying to have so much weeding to do..his place looks great

  5. Huw, you're awesome man. Keep up the good work. I bought your book 2 weeks ago now and I am now in the process of setting up my first raised bed ! Thanks for all your help mate, it means a lot.

  6. Can you use rhubarb to maintain an edge on your garden? The grass creeps into the beds every year and the only corner that never really requires any maintenance is where the rhubarb is growing (the large leaves block light from reaching the ground underneath). I've tested some plastic sheeting this year and it seems to be working for the purpose I wanted although it seem to have also increased slug activity which isn't amazing since allot of my plants are getting eaten.
