Gardening with Ben and we're going to
0:16
talk about today what jobs to do in the
0:19
garden when it's raining in June now one
0:22
of the main jobs what you can do is you
0:24
can start to clear up your greenhouse or
0:26
your potting shed or your poly tunnel
0:28
from all those plants which you've
0:30
started growing at the beginning of the
0:32
year or your seeds and stuff tidy up all
0:34
your trays tidy up all your pots wash
0:36
them down get them ready for the year
0:38
after if you're finished with growing
0:41
seeds so that is one of the main jobs
0:43
that you can do next up is sort out your
0:48
tomato plants now I do this on a weekly
0:50
basis i spend about 20 minutes tying
0:55
nipping out any suckers that are growing
0:57
and giving them a feed and giving them a
1:00
good drink of water so that is one big
1:04
job what you should do in the greenhouse
1:07
and poly tunnel and the same goes for
1:09
like your cucumbers or your melon plants
1:14
tie them to the canes and to supports
1:17
and give them a good feed and water
1:22
another important job is hunting those
1:24
slugs and snails yes when it rains they
1:28
arrive in force in an army of
1:32
excitement to come and eat all your
1:34
plants so put on your raincoat get out
1:37
in that garden and get hunting those
1:39
slugs and snails to get them out of the
1:43
garden and away from eating all your
1:46
vegetation that you're growing on your
1:50
next up is sew some more seeds yes
