Autumn has properly set in but the vegetable garden is still full of produce and potential! This full garden tour focuses on what my thoughts and approaches are for each bed so you can get an understanding of what my thought processes are at this big transition time in the garden. Even with such a challenging year weather-wise I am very pleased with where the garden is at, and I am ready for all the change that will occur over the next 4 weeks.

Like your red pad choi, our red types of kale don't get touched by cabbage moth at all! We net every other type but never the red ones.
I'm not a great fan of Kale compared to other veg I grow, but it is so hardy, productive and reliable, its hard not to grow lots of it. I start mine late in the year to overwinter and take lots of flower buds off to eat, which I prefer more than the leaves. All the best, John, Hampshire, UK
Rats get my sweetcorn
You should try nasturtium pesto with hazelnuts and virgin rape seed oil. It’s lovely.
I expect the field beans will pull through the winter but the buckwheat will be killed by the first hard frost.
Looking for source for the gigantes beans in USA, also the purple sprouting broccoli and the Austrian tree cabbage?
Totally enjoy your videos. As for the Dock; would be altogether most especially on guard. It is extremely invasive via seed and with a very deep brittle taproot, which tends to break off and reassert the plant. Would carefully remove and discard all seed and each and every piece of root. Reputedly, it should not be eaten. People tend to get it confused with Sorrel.
Solar powered electric rodent fence, overlapped with a buried barrier that is embedded a foot or two in the ground (brick, wire mesh, plastic boards, whatever works). Add a fleet of rodent traps around the fence, and you’re golden. The only truly tricky part is the gate … it has to be very tight all round, and also electrified.
What are your thoughts about using wood ash in the compost or on beds directly?
Great fun . Best video yet. Beautiful garden and presentation. Inspirational. Thank you Huw.
lovely video love the coldframe
Fantastic video Huw. Thank you for sharing the highs and lows. I shall be trying purple pak choi next year, as my green variety has been quite badly ravaged by pests, so thanks for mentioning it. I've also lost one of my wall baskets of lettuce to caterpillars. So netting next time! I don't have your space but my garden looks very similar – lots of green things coming to an end. I'm excited to be planting my spring flowering bulbs soon and planting my winter bedding plants on top for a bit of colour over winter. I will miss my tomatoes though. I don't know why everyone doesn't grow them. They are the best thing in the world to have in a garden xx
Raccoons usually get my sweet corn.
Chinese chives are invasive. They come back every year and also they are self seeded very easily. Hope you can contain them for the years to come. We like Chinese chives very much, use them for fillings in dumplings, pancakes, stir fry dishes and etc. They are extremely nutritious. However, they are too invasive. I've been pulling them out, smothering them and also cutting their flowers for some jam sauce we use in hotpot but still they are all over the place. It's just one plant 15 years ago I dig from my friend's garden. Now they are at my front yard, back yard, concrete crevice, between step stones, along my raised bed……
Hi Huw. It sounds like you are struggling with a cold. I hope that you feel better soon. Thanks for all of your videos and exciting projects.
Hi, I have been following you since you are a school boy. I get excited to see young people gardening . Wow, you have come so long way from a young gardener to helping people to grow food to having your own gardening books. I encourage young people using you as examples. Last night I had slug catching party. Yes, I use your methods of catching slugs. I have a small terrace garden.
I have seen where somebody wired bamboo sticks all the way around each ear and that protected them. I have also heard of spraying with capsaicin. apparently voles prefer a lot of cover for them to venture out and if you have hay or grass that they can burrow under to get to your plants that might be encouraging them.
My corn bombed as well. Thank you for this honest, lower production video. You seemed so naturally yourself. That's what we fell in love with.
Learning lots from your channel. Austrian cabbage looks amazing in your garden.
