HAVE I DONE MY PRUNING RIGHT AND DO YOU PREPARE A PLANTING PLAN?

Описание: Second week of December and due to milder weather I’ve been able to continue doing my autumn/winter allotment jobs.

Autumn/Winter pruning is one of the most important jobs you can do for a healthy, productive garden.
In this video, I’m pruning grape vines, currants and gooseberries and explaining benefits to cut back for stronger and healthier growth and better harvests next season.

I’m also starting to plan and design my 2026 garden layout, thinking ahead about plant spacing, productivity, and how to make the garden easier to manage long-term.

Whether you’re new to gardening or looking to improve your harvests, these winter garden jobs can make a huge difference.

Shout out and big thank you to Claire from the ‪@TheFarmyardGarden‬ for recommending me to buy a book “The Fruit Expert” at their brilliant show ‪@SowChatty‬ It helped me to prune my grapevines!
