The Horticultural Channel: Episode 4: April

[EMOTTYVILLE]

I did a pumpkin last year and wasted about 10 m2 of valuable bed space. You must have a decent size pumpkin patch to make it viable as the leaves go berserk, are very big and shade everything.

would like to see if Claire`s is still in the Greenhouse come the end of May, or has managed to grow that big it`s smashed it`s own way out.

Where can you get bees from

@matthewperry1982 dragonfli.co.uk/beepol_bumbleb­ee_lodge.html Don't forget to let them know where you saw it! You may even get an extra bee! Thanks.

love the show, wish it was weekly, have been itching for the next episode! well done peeps, keep up the fab work x

So cool to see Richard Reynolds on the show. I used the methods Claire suggested for planting melon seeds and just about all of them came up, and because it is warm here I was able to plant them out already. Thanks for the tips!

You really did sow your pumpkins way too soon.

If you're going to plant them outside at the end of May then they'll have grown to about 6ft long by then judging by the size they are now .

Less haste,more patience,sow later.

Bumblebees from dragonfli.co.uk. Don't forget to let them know you saw it on our show. You might get an extra bee for it!!! ;-)

Excellent show. Really loved the beehive - I never realised you could get small, garden sized ones. A definite buy for me this year.

In response to the question posted on my subscription notification: I found the horticulturalchannel through my subscription to clairesallotment on YouTube. I'm truly enjoying these shows and hope your series catches on big here in the US. Good Luck!

I think a fortnight is just too long to wait! I do enjoy this show and weekly sounds better if you ask me... ah, alas, no one asked me. :)

Just gets better and better. Well done guys.

Love these shows, and the fact that I can watch then in the states. Thank you for all your hard work.

[horticulturalchannel]

@woodturningjohn Thanks! You are seeing it first! This will be broadcast in the UK on Sunday morning so you are getting to watch it before everyone else! Glad you enjoy. Let us know where in the US you are.

@horticulturalchannel I am in Minnesota, still a bit colder then you are now, nights still dipping below freezing and a little snow last night. I am putting up a poly tunnel to extend my season and have been learning a lot from channels like yours. On top of just enjoying watching all of you in the garden.
