Any thoughts on this?
I saw this (thanks to fb algorithm I’m sure 🙄) but what are your thoughts? Any here you don’t agree should be planted for any reason?

@Phillip Greenwood I guess I was hoping to learn from everyone else's mistakes, save me moving them unnecessarily - lazy gardener I am! I see what you mean though - I'll do that. Thank you

@Jack Hodgson Brilliant, thanks. I remember you saying about the bulb plants helping the trees, and something about not planting nasturtiums in a greenhouse too! I still may though - I need lots lol. Great, that's the plan then 🙌
An Arch from Middle Earth 🌍🪾
Been working in Cornwall for a few days so been disconnected from my phone. Roaming the UK Rainforests! And gather some lovely branches to add and build this trellis to enter the small kitchen garden. I love adding height and ‘portals’ in gardens, it makes you feel you’ve entered a new space. Like an arrival, now I’m in a new world! Making a garden more magical as it should be

Beautiful - as it should be 😁
Little orchard area. What would you do…?
I have an approx 1/2 acre orchard area, grassed with 20 (so far) x 2-4 year old fruit trees spaced out. I’d like to grow ground cover, plant more food, keep a wild / forest garden vibe. No neat beds or high maintenance. Thinking wild strawberries, creeping time… ? But what would you do? Regardless today I’m laying cardboard / mulch areas ready to plant but I’m very open to suggestions for this area 🌱 (it’s an outer zone)

@Phillip Greenwood very nice. I have a vision similar to this in another area. The fruit trees shown (and the meadow there) are the furthest away from our ‘zone 0’ so I really want to keep maintenance minimal there. You’ve also reminded me to stop thinking in straight lines.

@Phillip Greenwood beautiful, I can’t wait to show you pics of ours looking like this. Feels very inviting,
Being pro active (climate change)
One of my personal goals is to plant a minimum of 300 trees each year and 10,000 in my Lifetime.( Which has already been achieved). In one five year period I didn't manage to plant any, Which I regret , and this year 3,000 have gone in the ground. So my aim is solid, but flexible and the more people who are planting trees, the more the climate stability locally increases and more wildlife habitat and diversity returns, and natural balance follows

I had a wander through my (very little) trees today - luckily no deer damage. I also thought about how I’ll likely never see an established woodland 😢 at least not how I imagine it. I do hope the next generation take care of them. The many acres next to my house in Essex is about to become a housing estate 😔

@Phillip Greenwood ah that makes sense. At the moment the trees are quite spaced in a grid but I have plants to go between - bushes, smaller trees etc. I have a vague idea of the 7? levels but still have a lot to learn.
Indoor GROW/Nursey
Share your pictures, this is mostly microgreens but the shelves with lighting : mostly strip lights with a daylight halogen or led at 6500k lumens (daylight bulb) to mimic the sun and the red light is a full spectrum light which can even grow them to more maturing flowering stage. If you want tips on the best indoor set up, message me. But a simple sunny window is ideal. Main thing is the soils warm, they are out the wind and the sun / artificial light helps the, become strong and not leggy

I'd LOVE to do this Jack. My sunny window seal ain't cutting it lol. Once I'm here on the land 'permanently' I'm thinking shipping container, caravan, polytunnel....? Where's the best place for a microgreen set up in your opinion?
