Hello everyone, I'm the Yachter Gardener and today we are going to be potting up broccoli
0:07
plants as they have grown from their seed and they're getting too big for the trays now so
0:12
they need potting up so they can grow a bit bigger before we plant them outside into the fresh air
0:19
But it's still April at the moment so I don't want to be planting them outside yet, I want them to grow
0:23
a bit bigger before we can plant them outside because I don't want the frost to kill them off
0:28
so let's see what we're doing today. Here's my broccoli. As you can see they're very big and they're two rigs for the tray
0:35
so we need potting up into our pots so that we can get them established and then plant out next month
0:42
So let's get them potted up. Overall I'm going to plant about 30 broccoli plants
0:47
I'll probably need about 15 to 20 but I just want to plant a few actually just in case they get eaten or damaged
0:53
or they don't take. So let's get packing. you obviously need your broccoli, you need your plant pots and you need some compost
1:01
I've just got general multi-purpose compost and we'll get these in the plant pots
1:07
so to do this all you need to do is just gently ease out the plants carefully not damaging the
1:16
roots in the bottom so we'll take a couple of those out
1:20
as such. Always go for the best ones that I've grown. I don't want any piddly little things
1:30
I want the ones that are doing really well Always choose the best crop Fingers crossed They will all grow well So we got a few of those as such So the next job is to fill up your plant pots with compost
2:02
So it's just filling it up with compost. with some compost, making a hole and gently popping it in so that you don't break the stem
2:18
on the broccoli, because if you do then you'll have to use another one because you don't
2:25
want to damage it. So that one's in! So let's do another one
2:37
Check the butterfly in there. Pits with that excess solar
2:49
And pot it up as such. Like that. So as you can tell, that's potted up
3:00
It's not straight, but it'll grow straight eventually. When it takes. So yeah, let's get cracking with the rest
3:09
They're all potted up the broccoli. It's just a case they're keeping them watered now
3:13
So yeah, that's all the broccoli potted up. So thanks for watching this video on how to pot up broccoli plants
