Hey up everyone. It's Gardening with Ben
0:03
down here on the aotment. We've got four
0:05
days off. So, what are we doing on these
0:08
four days? We've got a big project ahead
0:10
of us. A very big project. Whether I'll
0:12
get it done is another question, but
0:14
we're going to give it a good old try
0:17
and see how well we'll get on with it
0:19
and see if we manage to get this aotment
0:21
tided and looking good. So, let's show
0:23
you the area that we're doing today.
0:26
So, this is the area that we're starting
0:29
this four days. It's a mess, a real
0:31
mess. We're going to transform it and
0:33
have a new planting area. Hopefully, a
0:36
new seating area as well. And we're
0:39
going to make it look pretty good. And
0:42
we're also going to add some arches in
0:45
like I've done at the top of my plot
0:47
over there up here. So, we're going to
0:50
have some M arches up here this side.
0:52
So, it's going to look pretty similar at
0:53
the top to the bottom as well. So, let's
0:56
stop talking. Let's get cracking. This
0:59
is day one of the transformation. So,
1:02
let's see how well we get on with it
1:03
all. Well, it's coming on. We've got the
1:06
first frame up. We're starting to clear
1:09
out all the weeds and everything. It's
1:11
going to be a big job this. But yeah,
1:13
around the frames, I want to have some
1:15
flower beds. And then I want to have new
1:17
beds around here, new paths, new beds at
1:20
the back. So, it all looks pretty good
1:23
and hopefully lots of flowers and lots
1:26
of color down at this top end of the
1:28
plot. So, let's get up the next two
1:30
frames to go in this area here.
1:34
So, there we have it. Three of the
1:39
and we'll get another two in that area
1:42
there. Fingers crossed once all that
1:44
area is cleared. But now we're going to
1:46
build the beds around the bases of the
1:50
arches and then possibly continue with
1:54
the beds behind. So let's get cracking.
1:57
Let's get started and let's see how
2:00
we're getting on with all this. It's a
2:02
big job. Definitely going to last
2:04
probably more than 4 days at this rate.
2:08
Day one complete down on our a lotment
2:12
project. So, let's have a look, see how
2:14
we've got on, and see what tomorrow's
2:16
jobs are down at the a lotment on day
2:18
two of the transformation of the area.
2:22
So, as you can see, we've got three
2:24
arches up. We've put in two beds at the
2:28
moment. I always use a paving slab to
2:31
make the gap in between so that when I
2:34
get some paving slabs, I can have a
2:36
proper path down the middle of them. But
2:39
yeah, we'll fill them with compost and
2:41
we'll put some plants in eventually. So
2:44
yeah, tomorrow's job will be to clear
2:47
out all these beds here and this back
2:50
bit and rebuild all this area. So we'll
2:54
see how we get on with day two down here
2:56
at the aotment. I'm happy with how it's
2:59
all coming along. Obviously, this is
3:01
going to be the worst area, which is all
3:04
day three and four, which is going to be
3:06
a nightmare to clear. But hopefully,
3:09
we'll get that done. But yeah, today,
3:13
tomorrow, all these beds will be out and
3:17
hopefully the new beds will be built
3:20
with a new path down the edge of these
3:25
Lots to do, lots to crack on with, but
3:28
yeah, happy with how it's all coming
3:31
along so far. So, come back tomorrow and
3:37
So, that has been day one of our
3:40
transformation of our area. Make sure
3:42
you drop us a follow to stay up to date
3:43
and make sure you've got your
3:44
notifications turned on for my page.
3:47
Until tomorrow everyone, remember, keep
3:49
smiling, keep shining, and keep
