Harvests Down 90%, Gifted & Shamed Toms, Netting Brassicas & Plantings Out: AWATP 12-18 August '24
Wednesday 14 August - Despite the rain, I still needed to pop to the plot to water the poly and greenhouse, and whilst there I answer a question posed by Witsonsmom in last week's upload's comments - how are our harvests this year... and I think they are down by about 90% overall;
Friday 16 August - With further rain overnight, I again popped to the plot to water the poly and greenhouse - and I take down an empty box of Isle of Wight tomatoes we were bought by Lynda and think it's shamed some of our own tomatoes to ripen...
Saturday 17 August - I get our stressed brassicas in that have been in modules for far too long, net them against pigeons with gifted tunnels from Vivi, and also plant our endive seedlings into the poly and our chicory seedlings into the raised bed with the beetroot. Happy Days!

Planting Out Brassicas, Radish & Broad Bean Harvest & Chat: AWATP 10 - 16 June '24
I just looked up the crinkle crankle room as it sounded fascinating and there are a lot of google hits about viewers being wow-ed by it, so you are not alone. Being in New Zealand we don't get a lot of the programmes that you do so I was very happy to see that the episode is on UA-cam and I am able to watch this one.
My veg garden has been as disastrous this year here in Bristol. Too much rain, too cold, not enough sun, too many slugs. About the only thing to survive are 3 x4 pint plastic milk bottles cut to half size and planted with 3 types of Basil. 2 of which are struggling and the 3rd is weedy and turning yellow. Normally they would have been bushy and able to be harvested every other day but I've been lucky to get a few tops pinched off this year 😥😥
Paul I admire your perseverance under such trying circumstances. You keep going and don’t give up which shows your strength of character. Good for you! Wishing you better luck next year. Thanks for the video.😊
Thank you for your answer, Paul. It's sad, I think I would like to get myself a beer to commiserate all of our gardens this year. Critters have enjoyed my garden. Your slugs are huge. I'm getting courgettes (summer squash) slowly, but nothing near what I should be harvesting for the 12 plants I have. Maybe 2 or 3 squash every few days. Mosquitoes are vicious in my garden this year, too, so even taking the hod around to look for harvest... I'm paying for it in blood. But am I still enjoying my garden -- definitely a yes! And there is always next year....❤
Thanks for the video, although I always look away when you are pointing out the slugs 🤣🤣, yukky things. 🤣
thanks for the update Paul; there is always next growing season to look forward. Some years I have had too many slugs but we haven't had much rain here so all good. Take care.
Sorry for your gardening woes. Here in suburbs of Connecticut chipmunks ate most of our blueberries and strawberries. Squirrels ate all peaches on our one tree. Bears stroll through and have eaten butternut squash. Raccoons, possum and skunk help themselves as well. We pick tomatoes as soon as they start to color. We have an electric fence around chicken pen to deter bobcat and bears. We have also had a very wet summer. Gardening is rewarding and challenging and I enjoy your channel.
Blimmey 🥴,,,errr different chat today !! Please can we have our beloved Richard back next week !! 😇🌸x
Heartbreaafter all your hard work. It makes me wonder what commercial growers use to keep the slimy sods away. Even with the insecticides they use I’m sure the weather has impacted them significantly. Bit of a worry.
Thanks for the video and sorry to know your significant reduction of the produce this year. To reduce the slug damage I used nematode once in May. It protected my young seedlings/plants by reducing slug population. It costs £14 for 40 square meters, which covered my eight raised beds. Therefore I have similar amount of produce in comparison to last year.
Hi its simon from Doncaster ive had a pretty good year just slow to get going do you ever think about giving the plot up and doing other things with your time if so what would you like to do if you had the time
can't you use salt to control slugs? you are so lucky to have land to grow different things, I wish I had your space and energy, bad growing season, stay safe, and God Bless
It's been crazy this year, my friend. Hopefully, next year is a better year 🙏
The slugs are of plague proportions this year. The worst year i can remember for the bod orange monsters! I have been gardening for 50 years 😮lets hope next year will be better 🙏 ❤
Those throws looked so nice and your new chairs finish the look at the back garden. Your garden looks colourful and fresh,,Bye for now 🌸x
This was a riot but I still missed the real Richard and his outright sarcasm and complaining, I usually agree
Richard - to get back on all the people (love them all) that say you're a bit too complainy, I reckon you should do the next Sunday Chat as a Stepford Wife. They'll soon change their minds! 😁
❤❤
Thankyou Richard for sharing your week 💜
I'm going to say something so positive, you two are so funny and you always make me smile. Re- putting together chairs, I have just bought a lawn mower that you had to put it together. So I started ,it all went well until I had to put the the plastic grass box together. That was a nightmare. I went on utube to see if anyone else had the same problem. This man had exactly the same issue and he was nearly tearing his hair out, although he was bald. It was so funny. I eventually put it together breaking my nails at the same time. I have to say it is a great little mower although it was hard work initially. Good luck with the chairs Richard. 😄
Richard, just do you. If someone is permanently "Pollyanna" or permanently the "King of Complaints" they are mentally unbalanced. So you take those two days of Sunshine Richard and just beam... healthy people are a mixed bag. This morning I'm making Tomato Cheese Vegetarian tarts from garden tomatoes I just picked. Happy to finally be getting a few tomatoes here. I forgot I had Green Tomatoes and kept wondering why they weren't turning red yet... and then I realized I had Aunt Ruby's German Green and they were ready. As to your biological vs environmental question, I've always thought the answer was it's both and probably somewhere in the mix, neither. ❤ Have a good week guys.
As a window cleaner outside all the time, I wear sun cream all year round. Factor 30 in winter/spring, and f 50 in summer months. I was only prescribed transitional glasses in my 50's but by then a little damage has been done. People should have transitional glasses or even sun glasses from a younger age if outside most of the time. My Macular is slightly impaired.
Enjoyed the video, always pass the time away with you both,when enjoying time in my kitchen. Thanks x
Loved the vlog. Thanks for all your effort, you have a beautiful home - the result of your hard work. I’ve been busy decorating this weekend, so enjoyed watching while I had a cup of tea and a break. See you next week. 😊
Oh dear, the strain of positive Richard…I’m exhausted! Much love to you both, thanks for my coffee break…back to work now xx
Thank you Richard and Paul for another fun SUNDAY CHAT !!! It is always good to catch up with your week! I agree with you Paul about gardening shows being borderline obnoxious! I much rather enjoy my various realistic UA-cam gardeners. The reality of genuine gardens having ups and down are more helpful than a program that makes everything seem very easy and flawless. Richard, I prefer you natural not fake happiness all the time, no one is really like that. I hope you both have a wonderful week! All the best to you from Massachusetts!😊🌲🌳
Hahahahaha....happy-clappy, positive Richard is cracking me up. 🤣 Agree re Gardener's World.....they could do with a presenter with a small (normal sized!), town back garden like the majority of watchers have..... Thanks for a lovely chat, chaps.....now go and have a lie down Richard, all this niceness must have exhausted you. Bring back Toxic Bitch! 😉
😂😂😂😂Richard’s positivity 😂😂😂 It was quite believable until he said BEAUTIFUL slugs 😂🤣🤣
Nice work on repurposing the throw. The pop of colour on the sofa looks great! Love the garden chairs.
OH my god, it's about honesty and autenticity ❤ The ones who complains can go to another vlog where it's all about apple cheeks and fake smiles. There are plenty of them actually. Toxic. We want you back! ❤❤❤
Oh dear this was just to fun to watch. I hope those ppl got their dose of positiv-Richard so it lasts for a while 😂😂😂 Have a great Sunday both and remember to share the cherries 😄
I prefer the normal Richard, I mean that in a nice way 😀 I could have toast with cheese & tomato every day for lunch 😋
Really interesting Sunday session, thanks boys. I’m off into the garden to forget my aches and pains ,it’s sort of the only thing that works.👩🏻🌾🥴❤️
The green throw's, the potted plants, the new chairs...It all looks lovely. You are very talented to do it all. Greetings from South Australia.
Love the flowers that you bought, which look great all potted up. I love fuchsias too. Your new patio chairs will be a great addition in the garden. I love the overall pattern and rustic look. Have a good week and bye for now.
Good morning chaps ❤❤
Good morning Maxine!
Escher's work Relativity (The Stairwell) was made off the stairwell in my old school. In 1953 in Arnhem. The building (old HBS school, located on the schoolstraat in Arnhem) is still in use and it is a lot of fun to climb the stairs. He was a Dutch artist.
Good morning both, For gardening I would say enjoy rather than have fun. Enjoy the small and sometimes boring tasks. I associate having fun with going to an amusement park. 🙂
I’m dying watching Richard trying to keep the smile up. 😂😂😂
love the garden pics, beautiful place to have morning coffee, God Bless
love watching every week, please stay safe with all going on around the world
Oh, for god’s sake Richard, BITCH, BITCH AND BITCH MORE! I LOVE IT. We all do.
Hiya Boyz, oh Richard lol you did soo well throughout visit, and the devil voice at end nailed it! Lol. Re the plant based remedies etc agree different times and need some research depending on the person? Take care Luv Southern Ontario Canada 🇨🇦🐝
I don't know; I think we should get a betting pool going and place a bet on how long it takes before Richard cracks under the strain of being Polly Anna.
Hahahaha. No thanks, I want the usual Richard back. This new positive model is way to tiring to watch.
Beautiful chairs, Richard!
Richard in all his moods and modes is always entertaining - even when he doesn't ooze positivity all the time.
Hiya Richard, enjoyed having a visit with you. Do like the chairs. Did giggle when I saw Paul knowing he does love his cardboard for the plot tee hee Thankyou for sharing your home with us. Take care see you Sunday. We are due some thunder boomers tonight yay, did have some earlier but no lightning, Southern Ontario Canada 🇨🇦🐝
As you said - a few splashes of colour make a huge difference. Lovely place to sit and relax now. Thanks for sharing!
