Thank you. This video is what I have been looking for. A Melbourne based garden show that's up to date with what to plant in my vegie garden. 😀🥕🥦🌶 Alf.
At the moment I have Lettuce, cauliflower, cabbage, snap peas, Carrots, silver beet, Rhubarb, and butter nut pumpkins. Still turning over ground for new garden beds. I live in Boronia Victoria. It's great to see how your RU-vid site is going from strength to strength. I also have a large rotary compost bin, best thing since sliced bread. Alf 🌶🥦🧅
I have two capsicum that have just produced for the fourth year. Nice to see a garden show in my geographical area. Leeks a re all year around here ( north of you), I plant a few seeds every 3 months, separate clumps when needed, harvest when big enough.
Lettuce, spinach and bean time, thanks for the tips. Yum. Any tips on growing rocket salad leaves mine are all getting eaten, but the herbs around them are doing well. You may be interested in Amaranth, generally grown as a salad microgreen (it is purple) an ancient grain. Grows up to be a great purple grain filled flower. Cheers Brendan
Love your garden ❤ I was contemplating on putting sugar snap peas I'm in Tassie Green caterpillars are attacking my pak choy too I will do the netting also . Thanks so much
I’m in Melbourne also and I love that your using mainly pots, as my soil is hard clay I found myself using pots also. What size are those blue square pots ?
The small ones are 27x27cms and the big ones are 34x34cms. To be honest I wouldn't recommend the small ones because they're not quite big enough for most things - but the big ones are great! They can, however, be expensive to fill if you're buying good quality soil, so worth filling part of the bottom with dry leaves before you fill the rest of it up. Hope that helps!
How do you manage when we have so bad weather in Melbourne like cold and no sun for days? Any specials tips? I was planning to grow veggies like tomato/ chillies etc but team member at Bunnings said that snow peas is better in cold weather. What do you recommend from youe experience ? Thanks a lot for hard work with location specific information for new people ❤
Unfortunately tomatoes and chilli plants don’t like cold weather so it’ll be too late to start growing them now, a good way to remember when to plant tomatoes in Melbourne is around Melbourne cup time. If you’re wanting to start planting now, look for vegetables that do well in the cold and can handle a night frost, like those in the video that I’ve just planted recently. There are lots of things that will grow well in cooler conditions. Good luck!
@@ChristieCooper I bought seedling rather than seed as I've heard it's takes a long time from seed. I'd say leave them and see how they go maybe for a few more weeks.
