Hey everybody and welcome to day five of
0:04
the a lotment transformation. The last
0:06
day of our days off. Over the past week,
0:09
you have seen us clear our plot, get it
0:12
all tidied, get rid of all the old stuff
0:14
in the beds, and today is more of a DIY
0:17
day. Let's show you what we're going to
0:19
be doing today down at the plot. So,
0:21
today we are going to be stripping out
0:24
all that fencing, all the archways.
0:26
We're going to be putting up a new
0:28
archway here with a new pathway down the
0:31
middle so that I can get on out of my
0:33
poly tunnel and straight onto the plot
0:36
rather than having to climb over the
0:37
pumpkin patch. But yeah, we've got a lot
0:39
of work to do. Tidy all those roses up,
0:42
fasten them to the arches, and hopefully
0:46
get the archway in center position here.
0:49
So, it should be a good old day. So,
0:52
it's a gorgeous day down here at the
0:54
aotment. So hopefully we get everything
0:56
done today down at the pot. And here we
1:00
go. Here's all the fencing taken down
1:02
from that side. And we've put two new
1:07
beds in. We've put one in there. We've
1:10
put one in there. We just need to put
1:11
some compost in them and hopefully get
1:14
some flowers in them to make them look
1:16
nice. And yeah, always maximizing the
1:19
space that you have down at the a
1:21
lotment. tied my rows up to the new arch
1:24
that we've put up. Hopefully that one
1:26
lasts. That one bent and had it. So, I
1:30
think I might be getting a new one to go
1:32
in that gap there. But that's next
1:34
weekend's job is to clear all that
1:36
entrance out and tidy all that up. And
1:42
we'll be clearing this area so I can get
1:45
through that archway because all the
1:47
Logan berries growing mad, the roses are
1:49
growing mad and the bindweed of course
1:52
is growing mad. So that'll be next
1:55
weekend's job doing all down that bit
1:58
and making all that bit look nice again
2:01
because that's what we're trying to do.
2:04
make it easier, and yeah, it looks a lot
2:08
better that entrance there. Now I can
2:10
just walk straight out of my poly tunnel
2:12
onto my plot and rather than having to
2:16
climb over the pumpkin patch. But yeah,
2:19
it's worked out pretty well. I'm quite
2:22
happy with it all. Quite happy with how
2:24
it's all turned out. And that is the end
2:27
of the weekend of transformation.
2:32
So, I hope you've enjoyed following
2:34
along on our transformation of the last
2:37
five days and keeping up with how we're
2:39
getting on and how well it's all coming
2:41
along. But yeah, we've done absolutely
2:43
loads this 5 days. I'm happy with how
2:45
much we've got done. And yeah, now is
2:48
the time to start doing all the
2:49
maintenance work ready for next year's
2:51
growing. It's going to be a tough job
2:53
this winter, but I think if we start
2:55
early, we can crack on hard with it all.
2:58
So, if you've enjoyed this, give us a
2:59
follow. Make sure you stay up to date
3:01
with all our videos. Until next time
3:03
everyone, remember, keep smiling, keep
3:07
