Wonderful tips and encouragement. Here’s one back to you: Slug repellent. Sprinkle food grade diatomaceous earth around the base of your plants. It feels like broken glass to slugs and will enrich the soil even better than bone meal. My hostas never have holes, and it won’t hurt earth worms. It will kill ants, ticks, fleas, and anything with an exoskeleton. Don’t put it on leaves or flowers because it will hurt honey bees.
I put a half teaspoon in my yogurt.
Can slugs and pests be put into a blender and chopped up to be added to compost or the garden? Slug’s house of horrors…
How to grow herbs from the mother plant.. please.. drying etc . Also tomato seeds .. t.y

Guru of Garden, must learn much from Huw, well done
a compost-tea from stinging nettles :1 kg stinging nettles + 10 l water, let ferment for a couple of day – its a good plant nutrition
Grounding earthing is good at prevent and help fight almost all health problem, it’s easy to DIY a grounding sheet, mat or pillow to use at home, no need to buy.

Don’t forget dandelion greens is one of your foraging vegetables that you can eat the flowers and you can also eat the roots they’re very good for you and also stinging nettle

Do you have to add soil or newspapers to scraps of food for compost 🙂
Thanks for watching! Wednesday’s video is all about the complete organic guide to dealing with slugs using zero-cost methods, so stay tuned! Have a great weekend🙂🌿
Awesome hack with the jam jar and black pot. I am definitely going to try this. Thanks for sharing.
Really nice video!
Thank you so much for sensible inexpensive hacks.
God bless you,
Rather than dirty compost, call it biomass compost, or something hinting toward volunteer compost, as this compost could be used in beds to grow additional biomass or volunteer seedlings for the garden. Comfrey is a nice example, and having a few dandelions or nettles sprout in a container would mean that you wouldn’t need to worry about using the compost, because you might want those seeds, as free cover crop, or free livestock feed. You aren’t wrong calling it dirty compost, but I feel there is opportunity to give it a name which reflects the beneficial aspects that free seeds can have.
Thank you for sharing
Hi HUW. CONNIE FROM STATEN ISLAND NY. 😍
Did you know that using Epson salt is another great idea of killing slugs and it’s very good for the leaves and the plants with Sal and I am Connie Casale from Staten Island New York thank you
Hi! This video was in my suggested videos. I’m so glad it was. I am trying to grow flowers and vegetables in containers for now, ( don’t want to rush 😂 ) for the first time ever. I have a good sized back garden to trying planting in, if I can master the containers first. Your video’s are such a massive help, especially the “ tips “ videos, I’m so thankful!
With gratitude, Angela from Lancashire England. Stay safe. Subscribed and liked . 😁
Scatter some porridge oats around the base of your growing beds , and the slugs will eat this instead of your plants .. and what’s left the birds will eat the next morning 👍
Thank you for the knowledge on eating the vegie flowers. I just bought some sprouting broccoli and as a pensioner appreciate the tips on using previously wasted food.
How are you going to germinate seeds that require light to germinate by covering them with a piece of cardboard for 2 weeks?
💖😊💖
Good video, i have video about vegetables seed
How long can I do Without watering with the container message
You are SUCH a BLESSING with your tips/hacks….You are making things so much easier, especially for us who are just starting out
A saucer with beer is a great attractant for slugs..

Great tips, thanks
Always love the videos
Thank you, Huw! I JUST ordered your book 🙂 Looking forward to reading it!
thank you so much for sharing. so many of your idea’s help this pensioner take care of her garden cheaply.
As tires decompose, the chemicals in the rubber leach into the soil and nearby water sources. Many of these chemicals, as well as heavy metals, are dangerous to plants, soil and aquatic systems.
Ya I know, some don’t want to hear it. At least give it a little thought.
at 9:30 … the blur effect is NICE !
I was wondering what lens or gear you are using. There is a lot or artifacts, but I love it anyways. Thanks !
Great video, thank you!
One of my favourite videos, Huw!
This is such a beautiful garden-the type you wish you could have!
12:30 I’m not saying huw is a theif, but I’m pretty sure thats my bucket
Eat the dandelions!
Don’t recommend anything with open freestanding water…a haven for breeding Mosquitos!
which in your opinion is better mylar bags or vacuum seal plastic clear bags for storing buckwheat groats? I put them in plastic buckets afterwards.
Just came upon ur chanel today.
Thanks for all the suggestions
I need a husband like him
Don’t forget to remove all* seeds from the weeds before you let them dry on top of your soil. Better is to eat the highly nutritious dandelion leaves. Nettle has several medicinal purposes & should be used as a tea. If you are on prescription meds, call your pharmacy about using nettle.
Slugs should not be handled w/o gloves as they can carry a transmittable parasite. Hammering or screwing together 2 wood boxes is better. The extra height helps with sandy, clay, or highly rocky soils. Homemade cost tea stinks super bad which doesn’t easily wash off in the shower& always use a lid
Again, the smell is awful but it’s free & it works. Organic Fertilizers are expensive
Find or buy a large soup ladle.
Very useful, thank you!
What a wonderful video! Thank you for sharing.
