I arrived at the allotment garden not really expecting that much damage after our recent storm. Unfortunately I lost some plants and have had to harvet the garlic and onions a week earlier than I’d planned. I made the most of things by starting some of the downed comfrey as a liquid feed though and managed to harvest enough ‘Mara des Bois’ strawberries, pineberries, and rhubarb to make a delicious pie.

*The rule regarding gallons of water per fish can be fudged with a little bit, besides I rebuilt this pond in 2019, so the fish got a much bigger home…

Have you ever wondered what makes a pond crystal clear (or not) then stay tuned for an in depth look at how YOUR garden pond functions, and the critical elements to keep it running smooth.

I forgot to mention: Have a mesh bag of lava rock above the filter pads in your Biofalls!

MAKE HYBRID HIBISCUS / HIBISCUS SEEDS AT HOME EASILY
Daizz’s Tips-Pollen are perishable and must be used fresh, so the sooner you use it after the flower opened the better it is.The stigmas are most susceptible to pollen directly when the flower opens in the morning. Try to pollinate as early as possible. It may be wise to move the plant into the shade until you have the opportunity to dust on the pollen.

MOST DANGEROUS Waterfall Build of 2018 (so far)!

Carrying boulders up and down stairs, down steep slopes and driveways by hand is treacherous work! Today we’re rebuilding a pond waterfall in Sparta, NJ and it involves some creative staging of boulders as we build right next to a staircase. The homeowner built this pond by himself 20 years ago and now he is ready for Atlantis to give his waterfall some “Rock Stars” love!

I’ve just realised that it’s been a full year since my very first plot tour — yay for garden anniversaries! In this video we follow the same format as the others, a walk around my garden to see what’s growing and to look at current projects. That’s followed by a tour around the allotment field and highlights of what’s growing on other people’s plots.

In this video:
✽ Vegetable garden tour
✽ Cucumber pallet trellis
✽ Strawberries are ripening
✽ The first sweet pea of the year
✽ Culinary and medicinal herbs
✽ Walking around other plots at the allotment to see what’s growing.

Crunchy cucumbers, fresh from the garden are in a league of their own. There’s nothing as cool as a homegrown cucumber!

Cucumbers grown in the greenhouse require slightly different care from those grown outdoors.

In this short video we show you how to grow both outdoor and greenhouse varieties, and share our nifty idea for making a fantastic cucumber frame to grow them up for easy picking.

If you love growing your own food, why not take a look at our online Garden Planner or Garden Journal which are available from several major websites and seed suppliers:

Lovely Greens is now on PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/lovelygreens

This week I’m planting quite a few new plants in the allotment garden including ‘Marketmore’ cucumbers, Chocolate mint, a pink lavender, and sunflowers that only grow about three feet tall. I also show you how I’m growing them all with inexpensive DIY ideas. A pallet support for the cucumbers and a repurposed plant pots to keep the mint from getting too invasive.

Also, I don’t want to be confusing but Lavender and Lavandula are the same thing. In my mind I was thinking French and English varieties but in the video it came out wrong. Hey ho, everyone makes mistakes 🙂

In this video:
✽ Building a cucumber pallet trellis
✽ Tips on planting mint in the garden (so as to stop it spreading)
✽ Planting a French lavender variety called Lavandula ‘Bandera Pink’
✽ Using dwarf sunflowers to disguise a leggy lavender
✽ Planting parsnips grown in modules

More on the Slug X trap (UK)*: https://amzn.to/2LWkOFS
and in the USA*: https://amzn.to/2xDzMxd

Questions for you about the video:
✽ What do you think about the cucumber pallet trellis and how do you grow your own?
✽ Are you battling slugs and snails at the moment? If so, what are your most effective ways for keeping them from destroying your vegetable garden?

Thanks so much 🙂 PS — I’m trialling them right now after reading a great review of them in the press. So far they’ve been catching a few slugs but as I say in the video, I’ve not had as much of a problem with them this year. Touch wood!
