G'day Everyone, I wanted to get this video out earlier but unfortunately, my video camera broke (5k down the drain unless I can fix it) so I had to film on my phone in 10-minute segments as it kept overheating LOL... Anyway, I still had fun filming so I hope you enjoyed the video. Get into it! BTW, if you are interested in checking out the fertiliser mentioned in the video from Plant Doctor: Go to www.plantdoctor.com.au and if you decide to purchase use SSM20 = "One-time" use code offering 20% off products (not shipping). Next time you shop use SSM10 = 10% off products (not shipping). I receive a small commission on sales. Cheers, Mark

I love Brussel sprouts!!! Seriously, one of my favorite. Mulching is the key to success in my garden. And over time has completely changed my soil onto a beautiful black, soft, rich, Light soil. Also.....one of my tips is to be a little "lazy", and not clean up my old plants right away..... I have found there are many plants that I no longer have to plant....they self seed and just pretty much replant themselves year after year after year. I can move them. Keep them where their growing and give them away. Plus, the plants that reseed themselves ARE more suited to my yard. For example they are more suited to the microclimate in my yard and they come back even though they're not supposed to. I've also developed my own tomato variety by continuing to grow The Offspring of a hybrid that was planted many many years ago. It is one of our favorite tomatoes

I used storeboard compost soil, and have liquid fertelizer from nettel on hand. The last thing is btw. an old gardeners trick here in europe. Done for centurys! I sorry for my spelling, but I hope you all understand me :D Cant wait for my first harvest around august! I just remembered: If you want to do some nettle fertelizer, cut the plant down, break it up a little and then drown it in water for around 6 weeks. It might smell not very nice, but your plants will love you for it and it also helps them be stronger in the fight against pests.

Heyo! Love your videos. My friend and I are trying a deep mulching technique using at least a foot of just tree chips (not treated, not colored) its working really wonderfully! Holds moisture so well, and makes weeding so much easier because nothing can come up through the mulch, and anything on top is only rooted in the mulch, so a little pull and a shake. Bam. Weeded
