  I sow my broad bean seeds 15cm or 6” deep, that way the mice can’t find them and dig them up to eat. It also means that by the time they hit fresh air they’ve a good strong root system. I do this every year and haven’t lost any seeds to mice and always have a huge crop. Try it, you’ll like it.

  “The way we shape a positive future lies not in the technology we create, but in the soil we regenerate”. Thanks from Australia for your thought provoking quote, your book (from my thoughtful husband 🥰), and your endless supply of educational videos. 🍎

  I'm in Northern Ireland, I planted pea's in the greenhouse around the start of August, and I'm growing them up the tomatoes as the finish. They are flowering and podding up nicely. It was an experiment but it seems to be working well.

  What I notice most is how this video allows time for small details. I try to do the same whenever I film in my garden, because even simple things like moving branches or the sparkle of dew can feel meaningful when watched back.

  Mercy, there certainly are some grumpy people here. &nbsp;Perhaps it’s the end of summer blues, lol.😂. Hopefully nothing a good nights sleep and/or a cup of tea can’t cure. 😂<br>Your climate and plantings rarely translate to my zone but I still usually get some tidbits of interesting information from your videos so continue on. 😂 &nbsp; Besides I always enjoy looking at your garden. &nbsp;TeresaSue

  Perhaps this is a matter of different local common names between the UK and the US: here in California, purslane is a succulent in the Portulaca family while what you showed as purslane is called Miner&apos;s Lettuce (maybe from the Gold Rush days?) and is in the Claytonia family. Both grow wild here and both are edible. I have unwittingly weeded both out of the garden in the past. 🙄

  Here in the California desert we are just getting started planting. Summer is our winter and our summer is starting to cool down. Go time!

  I&apos;m always happy about things to sow late, even so my beds are already super full. Just ordered a bunch of sweet peas 😊 what I also want to try is sowing parsnip and carrots now, it&apos;s a first 🤞

  Thank you!! I really have to try out Claytonia. Those sweet pea flowers, they are spectacular. I must find some.
