Trying to relax, eat somewhat healthy and enjoy it and cook something simple as nice as possible. I've diced the chestnut mushrooms and put them on the sausage and bacon so they don't dry out under the grill, egg and a bit of baguette sliced in half. When the baguette was just starting to get crispy, I've added the cheese and back under the grill until golden brown. Tried to time it so also the egg yolk is still liquid, then ketchup. Also cherry juice. I've remembered that I would have wanted to add tomatoes and lettuce, which I didn't have then.

I sometimes pick up some rubbish/ litter picking and saw a few other people around doing it in UK. I thought I'd do a special vid for people of the world and in particular for France as I've read that they are doing a campaign to reduce plastic waste and in the environment like in the woods or by the road. I've heard that animals like dogs, sometimes ingest or choke on plastic from the street. So I would sometimes pick up other people's rubbish and try to put it in the recycling bin if it's available.

Strawberries, tomatoes and roses are great and huge. The polytunnel humidity is helping a lot. The Watermelon sprouts didn't quite grow, as they have probably dried out. So, I will have to try again next year. After growing from seeds and planting the sprouts of tomatoes, they are huge. So, transplanting and splitting them just into individual plants in each location. I've planted the tomatoes at the front (sun facing) of the roses that would give them or at least their roots and soil around their roots, semi shade, so not too much sun through the day as they would just dry out too much if on their own and not have much fruit. Need more sunlight for plant's photosynthesis, reactions and growth, whilst the transparent plastic is keeping in moisture or higher humidity, so tomato fruit won't dry out and crack from full sun. That's why if appropriate, it's good to plant the garden area thick, for better moisture retention in the soil from shade of close by plants. But not too close so they don't interfere with each other. In my garden the tomatoes will grow up the bamboo stems around the rose, which I think is basically at the limit of how close the plants can be to each other without having a detrimental effect on each other, but instead symbiotic, or helpful to each other. After planting, I have sprinkled the dry Pampas grass trimmings around the tomatoes and strawberries as an organic and non toxic pesticide slug and snail repellent in an environmentally friendly manner, as an alternative to slug pellets or salt. Otherwise the slugs and snail would eat the tomato plants and the strawberries. It's also good to have the strawberries fruit resting on woodchips or straw so they don't rot on the ground or get eaten by earwigs and other little insects on the ground. Then watered the established strawberries and the newly replanted huge tomato plants. I've used the hose and luckily we don't have the hose pipe ban for conservation of water at the moment yet. Would have been better to use water out of a rain water butt, but at this flat the gutters from the roof are not accessible to connect a rain water butt. The soil is great as the plant leaves decompose each year and feed the soil, so no need for fertiliser, but just water. I wanted to be friendlier to slugs and snails lately, instead of squashing or throwing them viciously as I did before and other people do or slug pellets that kill them, as they eat my nice plants, fruit and veg, because I've made a deal with God about less evil and violence in the world. Also with Mr Putin's Russian forces attacking Ukraine and committing all of those terrible and violent atrocities and riots and other violence around the world. I was feeling guilty about purposely and viciously killing slugs and snails as I did before and had to stop. I now also feel a bit guilty when I accidentally step on a snail and squash it, which probably hurts it.

Finishing trimming the Conifer hedge with my Li-ion battery powered Ego 56V hedge trimmer. No trimming it too much, as otherwise it will go brown instead of green. That's the beautiful neighbour's oast house with the wind direction turning pointy roof, in the background. Some Daisies and pink rose in this garden. Unfortunately they don't have a scent but look pretty and lush after the rain. Conifers are technically named as Leyland cypress, Cupressus × leylandii, X Cuprocyparis leylandii or X Cupressocyparis leylandii My social media (parents as with anyone's channel, please check my social media before allowing your children to visit) Yell.com https://www.yell.com/biz/g-i-o-landscapes-maidstone-7346165/ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/ilia_gofman/?hl=en-gb Instagram https://www.instagram.com/ilia_gofman...

After finishing weeding, I needed to finish planting the tomatoes and watermelon sprouts, which I was growing from seeds after eating the fruit, sprouting them in the little seed tray like babies, that looks like a tiny greenhouse from the Ferrero Rocher chocolates box. I've planted the tomatoes and watermellon by the roses that would give them semi shade, so not too much sun through the day as they would just dry out too much and not have much fruit. Even though need more sunlight for plant's photosynthesis, but unfortunately it's also too hot and would require a lot of watering that I wouldn't be able to keep watering them so much in the full sun. So I've reduced how much sun light they get by the shade of the rose, but that also increases the moisture level in the soil requiring much less watering, that results in lusher plants, more fruit and better quality (not cracked and dry tomatoes from full sun). That's why if appropriate, it's good to plant the garden area thick, for better moisture retention in the soil from shade of close by plants. But not too close so they don't interfere with each other. In my garden the tomatoes will grow up the bamboo stems around the rose, which I think is basically at the limit of how close the plants can be to each other without having a detrimental effect on each other, but instead symbiotic, or helpful to each other. After planting, I have sprinkled the wood chips around that was used for my pets' bedding or could have used straw instead like the one used in horse stables. But I've had the woodchips available so used those as an organic and non toxic pesticide slug and snail repellent in an environmentally friendly manner, as an alternative to slug pellets or salt. Otherwise the slugs and snail would eat the tomato sprouts and the strawberries. It's also good to have the strawberries fruit resting on woodchips or straw so they don't rot on the ground or get eaten by earwigs and other little insects on the ground. Then watered the established strawberries and the newly planted little sprouting tomatoes and the watermelon. I've used the hose and luckily we don't have the hose pipe ban for conservation of water at the moment yet. Would have been better to use water out of a rain water butt, but at this flat the gutters from the roof are not accessible to connect a rain water butt. So as they are just starting to grow, of course they are tiny sprouts for now, but should grow huge. The soil is great as the plant leaves decompose each year and feed the soil, so no need for fertiliser, but just water. I wanted to be friendlier to slugs and snails lately, instead of squashing or throwing them viciously as I did before and other people do or slug pellets that kill them, as they eat my nice plants, fruit and veg, because I've made a deal with God about less evil and violence in the world. Also with Mr Putin's Russian forces attacking Ukraine and committing all of those terrible and violent atrocities and riots and other violence around the world.
