Elaine and Julia are back, and this time they're recording outside at the beginning of October. They kick off by discussing the unfortunate fate of Gerry's sweet corn, stripped by magpies, and move on to updates from last week's episode. Gareth, shares his experience with poached pears and planting garlic in tubs.
We provide tips on how to salvage green pumpkins and prepare them for Halloween. The conversation shifts to the importance of organizing seeds, with Elaine revealing her clever method of storing them in a wardrobe and the benefits of using shower caps to protect spring bulbs from squirrels.
The episode also covers the perennial nature of chili plants and how to overwinter them, along with a discussion on overwintering broad beans, peas, and onions. The duo debates the merits of taking a gardening break during winter versus continuing to plant hardy varieties.
