A day we won't forget in a hurry. 🌱 Last week we spoke on the mainstage at RHS Sandringham Flower Show — no-dig growing, healthy soil, year-round harvests. The audience were wonderful and the questions at the end were just brilliant. It felt like chatting over the garden fence, just with a microphone! Thank you so much to RHS for having us. Have any of you been this year?
July harvests are HERE — and the tomatoes beat us to it! 🍅 We weren't expecting them for another three weeks, but earlier sowing and our grow light system changed everything this year. In today's video we're doing a full garden walkthrough — runner beans, cucumbers, watermelons, courgettes, peppers, soft fruit, and yes — the early tomatoes. 🍓🥒 We've also got some heatwave tips that have made a real difference keeping everything going in this heat. New video is live now — https://youtu.be/7o8MAIMIwaI How's your garden looking this July? Drop a comment — we'd love to know!
Most gardeners think July is too late to sow. It isn't — not even close. Today's video shows you 20 crops you can still get in the ground this month, with harvests running right through to Christmas. 👉 Watch it here: https://youtu.be/W7oeTqAEnSs And a quick heads up — tomorrow is the last day to join our Grow Veg Year Round at the launch price. It's a gardening coach I built to give every grower their own personalised sowing plan, whatever the time of year studio.com/barry-wilson/growfood What's still going in your garden this July? Let me know below 👇
Something I've never shared before just went live on the channel. 🌱 I walked out to the PSB tray this morning — the one I sowed last week — and every single seed had germinated. Right on schedule. Not because I remembered to check. Because the app told me to. Five years of succession sowing in this Norfolk garden, and I've finally built something that does the remembering for you. It tells you what to sow, when to check it, and what to do next — based on your garden, not mine. Short video is up now — link below. And it's on a special launch price for ten days only.

Five years of no-dig gardening. Five years of compost on top instead of a spade in the ground. And this is what June looks like.
Calabrese broccoli that ended our hungry gap. First early potatoes. Cabbages, beetroot, radishes, soft fruit — all from the same simple sowing calendar we've been showing you all year.
If you've ever wondered whether the no-dig method actually works — this week's video is your answer. The link is right here 👇
Most of us were taught to remove EVERY side shoot on tomatoes. We did it too — for years. Then we tried leaving just one. The top one. And last year we harvested £450 worth of tomatoes from our no-dig greenhouse. https://youtu.be/Ar43QNZxM10 New video is up 👆 and in this one I show you exactly which one to keep, why it works, and the feeding switch that makes the real difference once the fruits appear.
Have you ever tried leaving a side shoot? Let us know below 👇
🌱 New video up — and if you're spending every evening watering your containers, this one is for you.
Here's a stat that surprised even me: containers can lose up to 70% of the water you put in. I'll show you exactly what to do to prevent this happening. 👉 Watch here: https://youtu.be/ObsywK20xKU
☀️ Is this heat catching your garden out?
We hit 36°C here in Norfolk this week — and the allotment has been feeling every bit of it. I've just uploaded a new video covering the 6 things I'm doing RIGHT NOW to protect everything we've worked so hard to grow this year. From deep watering to shading young seedlings — these are the practical steps that are genuinely making a difference here.

⚠️ June 21st is coming — and your winter veg depends on it.
Most gardeners don't realise it, but the summer solstice is actually
the most important SOWING date of the entire year. Miss it, and
you'll be staring at empty beds come January.
In this week's video I'll show you exactly which seeds to get in the
ground NOW — and the varieties that will keep you harvesting fresh
veg all the way from October right through to May.
The whole winter kitchen — starting today.🎥 New video is up now — https://youtu.be/VH0xkcmTFDI Don't miss this one. The clock is ticking! 📅
Bank holiday planting time! 🌱We're planting out the warmth-loving crops this evening — cucumbers, aubergines, squash, melons and sweet potatoes — and I'm showing exactly what goes in every single planting hole. New video out now https://youtu.be/Z0INIwq2BY8 The cucumber maths alone will surprise you. Are you planting anything out this bank holiday weekend? Let me know in the comments 👇🌿 Barry & Mrs W
