It's super busy with sowing and growing in the garden now that June has arrived. My monthly sowing and planting plan hasn't always gone to plan and I'm ahead on some things and behind on others so time to get to work sowing and growing. The greenhouse and garden are already bursting with vegetables and flowers so there's transplanting out to the raised beds to be done to make way for the next batch of seedlings and we're direct sowing a lot this month.
There's also an update on the Grow Along with Eli tomato growing experiment.

Hi. I love your video’s they inspire me and make me want to go outside into the garden. Thanks.

Oh Christine, this evening’s video should really get you going then… it’s a doozy 😍

@jennyjohnson9012 2 года назад

Same here Eli the slugs are a nightmare this year. They took all my first lot of Cosmos, all I had left was stalks and slime!! My tomatoes are doing ok but no flowers as yet, my Tumbling Toms, first time growing are very weak....but hey ho we live in hope lol. Happy gardening Eli.

@eliandkate 2 года назад

100% Jenny - hope is the very definition of gardening :D

@carladelagnomes 2 года назад

Eli, I feel ya! Howling wind here in Northeast Nevada for weeks now. Went out today anyway to plant. Hi-desert 5a. Such a short growing season, I have to get on with it anyway. Learning to think differently when I'm planting, knowing the wind is continuous. (Maybe that's why my corn only grows two or three feet high. But even my knee high corn gets cobs!)

@eliandkate 2 года назад

Yeah we have the same thing with trees, we struggle with trees in our garden, the rarely do much and always get burnt by the wind. You just have to adjust.

@my3bsfarm863 2 года назад

Love your honest updates, including when things don’t go as planned! Gives me hope. We’ve been having crazy winds too, here in Massachusetts USA.

@eliandkate 2 года назад

I think everyone is complaining about their weather just now, too hot, not enough rain, too much rain, too much wind etc etc

@ToastyTK 2 года назад

Hi this year as in previous years i have problems with earwigs eating my runner beans and the damage starts with lots of small holes in the leaves best way to find out is go out at night with a torch and see what is munching on your plants

@shirleywatts6083 Год назад

You just needs beer trap or two when planting seedlings in your garden. Those little slugs and snails die happy. Just make sure the traps are not too close to new seedlings.

@TheEnthusiasticGardener 2 года назад

Eli your greenhouse is looking very full and lush. And your weather! Oh those slugs and snails are so annoying. Poor Doris. I lost most of the seedlings I’d lovingly sown and nurtured for months, planted them outside and most have been eaten, unless they were in one of my tall pots. Wishing you a marvellous week 😊

@eliandkate 2 года назад

Sometimes I wish the garden looked as lush as the greenhouse but its a real battle... hence why I love joining you for a wee burl around yours :D

@markcrichton3257 2 года назад

I am on round two for my Pak Choi after the garden fleas destroyed the first planting attempt. I am spraying the leaves with a Neem oil solution to try to keep the fleas off of the plants. Will let you know the results. The fleas attacked my radishes as well but once the true leaves came in they no longer bother with them. I hope to one day learn self control with planting flowers. Always appreciate you showing a droopy plant from your greenhouse, there always seems to be one that I miss watering too. 😁

😂😂😂 I say don't trust a any of these online weirdos if they don't show you them actualgardeninging and they don't also show you the plants they forgot to water, didn't look after and the ones that got trashed by beasties.

@Jimsraisedbedgarden 2 года назад

Great update Eli , I have been having the same trouble as you weather wise really strong winds which nearly wipe out my Wilko greenhouses which I have fastened to a wall 😀, I've not really been able to leave them open for very long as they would become Kites lol , I only Lost one big tray of plants which needed Potting on due to being blown off the shelf onto the floor , I was able to replant the majority of these but was lucky , I also feel your pain about losing your plants in the raised beds touch woodcive not had that problem , looking forward to your next update with interest , keep up the good work 👍 x

@eliandkate 2 года назад

Oh Jim… it sucks in this weather for the flimsy whimsy growers. I’ve heard from loads of people who’ve had whole greenhouses blown over. Extra frustrating when the internet is full of folk from down south complaining about how sunny and warm their weather is 😪

Just found your channel and love your wee vids 🙂 Hello from Banff, soz am no sure whereabouts yous are.. I grow aubergines in my polytunnel, if they're in pots they quite like a bubble wrap round their pots overnight .. as well as fleece cover up here for a few weeks no doubt. I only bought plants before but have 5 from seed this year -just waiting a few days til I put them out. Wishing you luck with your two.

@adysveggarden 2 года назад

Hello Eli, I planted courgettes in my raised beds last year never again, takes up to much space so have planted them in 20 liter pots (sames as your outdoor toms) you then have a spare raised bed.

@eliandkate 2 года назад

I did it the other way around. I used to grow them in pots and switched to the beds to give us more space. 😂

@michaeld.3779 2 года назад

We plant a baby spinach, pluck out some leaves, for a kind of perpetual harvest. The small leaves are nice for sandwiches and salads, when mixed with romaine lettuce. Nice video, Eli. Looks like you're bearing the fruits of your labors.

@reginahetherington1769 2 года назад

A tip for perpetual spinach is to grow a few plants and harvest often while the leaves are still small as they will give the best flavour and texture.

@eliandkate 2 года назад

Those Toms just need some sunlight Eli, they are a bit shaded in there. So glad the little Brad is recovering, you see it works! 10 days or so and they are off and running, give it a good location to grow in similar to your main plants and you will see just how vigorous these sideshoots grow, that is the real payoff from growing sideshoots...Steve...😁
