S2 E40 - The Last Of The Season

The Potty Plotters Plotcast - Growing on the Allotment

Join Elaine and Julia in the final episode of season two of the Potty Plotters Plotcast! As they wrap up the year with episode 40, the duo reflects on the ups and downs of the gardening season. With a touch of humour, they discuss their attempts at drying loofahs and the mishaps that ensued. If you’ve had better luck with your green loofahs, they’d love to hear your tips!

As the winter months approach, the plotters share practical advice on pruning apple and pear trees, and the importance of timing and technique to ensure a fruitful harvest next year. Julia offers insights into the best practices for clearing plots, emphasizing the need to tackle those pesky perennial weeds before they take over.

Elaine and Julia also discuss the benefits of using cat litter to dry dahlia tubers, a quirky yet effective method to prepare for the next growing season. As they prepare to take a break until February, they encourage listeners to stay engaged by reaching out with questions and updates on their own gardening adventures.
