Скачать или смотреть January in the Silver Grey Foliage 'Tiny Tunnel'

This video is jam packed with chatter!

I talk about:
water
watering the different crops in the tunnel
waste - in particular of a failed crop of Ranunculus
feeding and how we are focusing on sustainable feeds from waste this year
tunnel plastic care
-watering cans!

The Silver Grey Foliage Tiny Tunnel was new in winter 2021. 2022 was a year of learning and really we didn't make the best use of the space. What we did do is observe everything that happened and think about how we could make better use of the Tunnel this year.

SO this year, we are still learning. Doing the Ranunculus in trays is a proven method, but we did not get it right. And the outcome is wasted money sadly. You do have to question whether I'd be able to walk in the tunnel with a crop down the middle anyway.

Because the space is small, I really am keen to make the most out of it. I am desperate to use every possible inch effectively. That is one of the reasons that I have taken the door off at one end and replaced it with the crate. The crate prevents the foxes from getting in but allow constant air flow. It does not block access to any of the tunnel.

SO in essence the video inside the tunnel shows what we are actually doing. And It also allows me a sense of getting something done when the weather is so wet and windy and horrid.

As ever, if you like the video, please do subscribe to the channel. And to support our work and fuel further demos, do buy me a coffee!
