Kitchen garden tour in May | planted up at last!

If you’d like to explore more then I have loads of great resources for you, including hundreds of extra videos, my comprehensive gardening ebook, my gardening app, data on everything I grow and when I grow it and so much more. Everything I do is free to use, but not to create!

My books and videos are all grounded in what I actually do, I make sure you can see the evidence. For example if I suggest sowing carrots in November, take a look at my monthly tours to see them growing and my harvest videos for May to see the actual results. I'm not just about regurgitaing information from the backs of seed packets!

It looks like an immaculate show garden Steve, those lettuces look beautiful with all the different colours in neat rows.

Really nice, I like that it still looks like a garden, aesthetic and practical with the lawn. Brilliant 👍

You’re garden is a credit to you I have given up trying to grow vegetables because of Slugs! I have tried everything but have admitted defeat. Good old asda! Robert

Inspiring kitchen garden! I love you were lounging when the clip started…as if to say it all happened by magic and you just came upon it. Terrific learning, planning, and hard work on display; not to mention the prospect of some great meals.

I stand my blueberry pots inside a raised bed frame. It used to be a black plastic one and now it’s galvanised steel. I don’t fill it with anymore compost. I think it does offer some protection to the tubs. The plants look healthy and are flowering well. By contrast I lost all my single pots of tulips in the same garden.

I love seeing updates on your kitchen garden. It does look fantastic as usual

Always excited to see updates on how your garden and allotment are progressing Steve. I got the nematodes in the beds yesterday, potted up some seedlings and planted some out into beds. Every time I watch one of your videos I pick up some more useful tips. I have some brussel sprouts seedlings (only tiny at the moment) lined up for a bed mostly in the shade as something needs to go there. Thought it was worth a try even if just for some leaves. Do you think the kalettes will grow enough there too? I'm concerned that they will shade other plants too much if I grow them in the sunnier beds? Thank you for your all your help Steve.

You demonstrate that, if you do it right, a kitchen garden can show the diversity, interest and structure that more traditional gardens can. I have a pear tree growing in a recycled bin. How often do you water yours and how do you know when to? Best wishes

Just shows what can be achieved in a small space Steve

Good to see the yacon tubers making an appearance. Are you leaving them outdoors 24/7 from now on? Mine are still in the shed, but sprouting nicely.

Your garden is beautiful Steve - how long did it take to build up your fruit tree collection? It looks lovely with the blossom

[psisky]

Very neat and organised. What do you use your weights for? I prop my greenhouse door open with one.

It's so convenient to have so much at your back door :) How do you manage the watering of all the containers though? I'm toying with having my courgettes in big pots this year, but not sure I want to have to water something else, but you know how it is, running out of space...! Always informative watching your vids Steve :)
