If the peas are hard put it under your mattress to see if you’re a princess x

No argument, I have been growing for more years than I would like to admit, this year is one of the worst for weather conditions.....so far! Glad we survived pumpkin-gate!!! New craze started here....twine yoga!

hi Emma iv been away for quite awhile and now seeing your garden has blown me away i look forward to watching the vids i missed thanks for hanging in there thanks from us in new Zealand

@Lynne-plot35b-36b 27 дней назад

Emma so glad you didn’t take down the peas. In future make proper A frame constructions for peas and beans etc.

@emmasallotmentdiaries 27 дней назад

Will do! X

@bobwilliams5506 27 дней назад

It is still summer here. It's 86F here and it's 11 AM. Those sweet corn flowers are called tassles. Your tomatoes look like they could use a good feeding of fertilizer. I feed mine every 2 weeks once they fruit. Once a month before that.

@emmasallotmentdiaries 27 дней назад

Oh good shout, thank you! X

@elizabethmarch4424 27 дней назад

Thank you so much Emma for sharing your experiences. The allotment garden planner is extremely useful and I can't wait to get next years. Succession sowing will be a brilliant addition. Thank you. How exciting.😊

Put some Epsom salts on your plants with some fertiliser pallets or grow more, the trouble this year is all the rain has washed away all the nutrients from the soil, Epsom salts is basically magnesium and plants need magnesium so the can take up other nutrients from the soil you will see a difference very fast once you put Epsom salts on the plants, I put about 3-4 tea spoons in 5 litres of water

@emmasallotmentdiaries 27 дней назад

Ah I see! I didn’t even think of that. Thanks for the tip x

@deangibson3643 27 дней назад

Good day Emma, for carrot seeds we sow them very shallow and cover them with hessian/cardbord until they germinate. The hessian/cardbord creates a micro climate, keeping the seeds moist. Have a Beautiful day.🌻☮️

@lobodo988 26 дней назад

I was born in July and have always rather liked the cool, damp mornings and hot afternoons. Very peculiar to July where I’m at here in Wisconsin, USA. Maybe the Dew Point? idk. If your windows are open, you often wake up at the crack of dawn to put a blanket over yourself. Later that same day, it’s sweltering!

@kezlou75 26 дней назад

Use some string tied to your pea canes and peg two or three strings from each one, into the ground ( like you would a tent) to keep it upright.

@cachv3808 27 дней назад

Really keen to see how the new slug control works for your allotment. I feel that would work. We use a similar product available to us in New Zealand (Slug No More from Biogrow). They have worked for us. A bit pricey though. All the best. Love your channel.

@chriseverest4380 27 дней назад

Broad beans - DOUBLE PODDING - Jessie from Plot 37 has a cooking video showing double podding- that's what made me grow them. Delicious!❤

@__Shellspace__ 26 дней назад

those peas where more of a sugarsnap variey i wasnt right impressed either to be far but the pods where nicer then the peas i found , everythings looking wonderful emma x

@suebell3677 27 дней назад

i've been using a wool based barrier for several years so it's not new! I use slug stop, you have to water it to create a mat, really good and it's probably cheaper!!!

@milleka3504 27 дней назад

I’d make a triangle against it either side with canes or branches to support your pea frame from both sides. That should keep it braced and fairly stable. Your plots are doing so well. So far I’ve managed to plant potatoes, various brassicas (purple sprouting broccoli, calabrese, red and green cabbages on my new plot. I still have a whole side of my plot to deweed but looking at an op next Tuesday so might have to just cover that half with heavy plastic u til I can get back down there.

@chriseverest4380 27 дней назад

Highlight - forget the planner : fitness video Emma's Twine Workout.... burn calories, get your peas to harden, keep your structures erect!😂❤😂❤

@paulineellison9047 27 дней назад

i use arches 1 side runner beans and other side peas for mine

@user-ss9xc1uk6y 27 дней назад

Hi Emma your garden is looking great why don’t you put down some of the slug pellets you just use around the peas you just saw before the slugs take them ❤❤ love your videos ❤

@Catherine-vf5lx 25 дней назад

I’m trying dried yeast as a slug bait I’m having some success

@TraceUK 27 дней назад

You REALLY REALLY need to try Slug Nematodes, Emma! They’re cheap and they have evicted EVERY. SINGLE. Slug & Snail from my garden (as of right now, two weeks later anyway. I’ll probs find one now I’ve typed that). 10000% worth it and you can also apply other types of Nematodes to the same plants, which fight against other pests (inc. carrot fly etc!) cover the carrots with a board! Helps to germinate them and protect them from birds etc

@nitelite78 27 дней назад

8:25 That's brave eating the peas without looking at them. Often I find maggots inside eating one of the peas. Think they are pea weevil larvae.

@emmasallotmentdiaries 27 дней назад

What?!! I didn’t even think of that! 🤦‍♀️

@chrisc752 27 дней назад

A little extra protein never hurt anyone 😂

@boansy1 27 дней назад

I think I remember you said you had bad drainage in the area of that arch. From what I recall it looked very wet and boggy although you did a good job of covering it with compost and with extra woodchips. Have a look in the autumn, remove the top dressing and see if the soil is saturated at about 1 foot depth. If it is you probably have an area that holds water periodically (Cleave) which can benefit some plants however most will show poor growth.

@Bexyboo88 27 дней назад

Heya Emma, just wondering if you topped up the bed with the tomatoes in with peat free compost? Just thinking that maybe they aren't liking that or lacking some nutrients? I added some loamy soil from our garden into my bought compost, with some perlite and a bit of blood, fish and bone and my toms seem happy enough (They are in pots). They weather certainly hasn't been great for them so far.

@don5125 27 дней назад

Being a bloke you’d think I would pick off slugs and snails no problem But I hate them so much I have to use gloves 🥴😂👍

@emmasallotmentdiaries 27 дней назад

Haha! They are absolutely grotesque 😂

@fareebug8439 27 дней назад

🫛🫛Could make another Teepee structure over the peas- like the other new one you make then tie the current structure to the new Teepee one.

@joywhite439 27 дней назад

Leave the roots in the peas

@filipinasunflower7206 27 дней назад

re garden planner, maybe bed #, first sowing, second sowing?

@southernyankeebeauty15 18 дней назад

@Catherine-vf5lx 25 дней назад

Be warned eating Board-beans uncooked can cause tummy upsets they are toxic uncooked ..your allotment is lovely.

@RegBettles 27 дней назад

You need to get the structure deeper in the ground 18 inches or so

@GeorgeRice-q8q 27 дней назад

I always pinch top of my Broad beans out at about metre high I think they do better that way

The black fly go for the new growth at the top so nipping off the top stop that too.

@prunechat8401 23 дня назад

So sorry that you are getting so little joy from your garden. If peas go beyond perfection, leave them on the plant until the pods dry and you have seeds ready to go next spring (store in a cool dark place). Broad beans are absolutely delicious if you take the outer layer off to reveal the sweet beany wonder within. If you can’t manage small seeds like carrot seed, you can buy tape with seeds properly spaced out for you, not perfect but easy and less wasted seed. The wasp in your shed would ignore you unless you made a point of annoying it! Just trying to turn some negatives around for you 😁. Haven’t come across your videos before and was just surprised that you don’t seem to enjoy what you have.

@mjk6814 27 дней назад

For your pea structure, just add a couple of your bamboo A frames to the middle. That should help support your structure.

@robineasby5328 26 дней назад

Never mind Monty or Alan. It's "what would Emma do ? " from now on ! It would certainly be more fun !

@twelvesmylimit 27 дней назад

Will your broad bean recipes also be on Instagram, Emma? I don't use Tiktok.

@annfarrell528 27 дней назад

Three stakes on each end your structure should be a bit stronger. x

@steve1264f 27 дней назад

Get to know all the friendly people on your site Sarah & sod your neighbours that's what I did a while back. You can always take a friend down too as company & give you a hand..hope things get better soon

@sarah3136 27 дней назад

@steve1264f Aah thank you and good idea 😊

@TraceUK 27 дней назад

I’m so sorry they made you feel like that. Chances are, they’re admiring what you’re growing etc! I felt like people were looking at me when my toddler was misbehaving in the supermarket but I later realised they were just wanting to help or thinking “I remember when my child did that” (all kids do it at some point!)

@hannahsemple 26 дней назад

Two of my tomato plants are looking a bit sickly too, luckily the other two are ok. I put copper coins around my plants last year after slugs decimated some. It seemed to work!! Apparently the slugs get an electric shock
