A few folk have asked about the equipment I use to record my videos and how I get the buttery smooth shots – I’d like to say it’s me but alas it’s not me – it’s the equipment.

Below is what I use:

Main Camera: Panasonic HC-VX1 4K: https://amzn.to/2RHRJAo This never lets you down and produces great wide stunning shots in 4K

Second Camera: GoPro Hero Black 7: https://amzn.to/2PufdHg This IS THE camera if you have an allotment. It is by far the best and easiest to use – video is stunning!!!

Third Camera: Note 9: https://amzn.to/2L588MV If I have no camera and need video… this is a great video caperture phone – 4K is stunning.

Main Mic: RØDE VideoMic Pro+ Microphone – Black: https://amzn.to/2PsuTe2 The quality is unmatched.

Second Mic: Rode Smartlav+ Lavalier Microphone: https://amzn.to/2L3DBPq Back up if the wind is too great

Indoor Mic: PR 40: https://amzn.to/2PrZI2F Omph – if you are going into this for real – audio is even more important that video. This mic is a dream sound.

27” iMac: https://amzn.to/2B1VVE6 I have used Macs all my life – not one has let me down. Rock solid with rock solid software. I use Apple’s Final Cut Pro

Main Tripod: K & F Concept Tripod: https://amzn.to/2L3HKmw I have tried all so many tripods some way way more expensive. This one is great, lightweight… but opens tall enough to still get me in the shot and I am 6” 4”!

Second Tripod (for GoPro Hero 7) Joby GorillaPod SLR-Zoom: https://amzn.to/2L5vRMS This is the idea tripod when in allotment as you can stick it anywhere and record great shots

Light: Neewer 176 LED 5600K: https://amzn.to/2B5Dy0U I use this all the time now great for dull days (we get lots of those).

    ive planted out some french beans which are very similair to your beans tony and they are growing fine so i think yours should do fine mate

    This week? Oh, not much. I have 1 bush tomato left of the original 4. The others are all gone. Poor thing is all alone. No peppers, because I couldn't find the ones I wanted and the seeds that I started all died. This house kills seedlings and some plants. It isn't me, it's the house. I can get a plant growing and a month on it just dies. I think it is air circulation. In this house, it is very poor. Where we were before I could start anything from seed. Sigh… I think your corn will be just fine, they like to rub elbows, as it were, with one another. Happy gardening!

    Great job Tony , you have lots going on. I arrived at my allotment lastnight and someone had left a present of spent( used) coffee from a local coffee shop. I buy ground coffee beans so far when i use it , it works as i did have mishaps, have organic slug replent too in other parts and thats working and eggshells but not 100% reliable. You are doing a super job.

    Oh Borlotti beans my favourite beans been growing them since time began,absolutely fabulous in a rich garlicky tomatoe sauce,in casseroles and makes a smashing spread on toast.Love to listen to you talking to yourself all the huffs,puffs and groans dose narf make me smile . You've done a cracking job planting the sweetcorn……they are very thirsty plants so a good drenching in hot weather 👍 will bring them on a treat…..happy gardening happy life 🌱 🌱 🌱

    just built my first wigwam this year for sweet peas , looks just like yours mate .
    forget about asthetics its practicality that counts NOT LOOKS as the beans peas etc soon cover those wires and canes .
    buying a trellis from the shops is just a waste of cash .

    R Reet Marra great update only botha av ever had with my sweetcorn is a massive catterpilla sitting all snug in the growing tip munching all the new growth !

  10. Robin Hood

    Think I have planted out everything, so now its water and weeding. recon you going to need a second plot. MMM think of how big a polytunnel you could have then..

  12. Dreamy Tangerine

    Love your garden. You take good care of it. Those onions look awesome. We have started our first backyard garden, here in Nashville Tennessee. I enjoy following your channel. All the best~ Laurie 🌼🌱

  13. pinky pete

    You should give peanuts a go in your polytunnel I've got loads on the go and now don't know what to do with them all lol

  15. nothing here

    Went to view an allotment last week with the local town council lady, now itching like mad to get started on my new plot, it willl be my first allotment! I just hope my plot neighbours are as much fun, as friendly and as knowledgeable as you are!

  17. Laurie Cox

    Got everything planted out now and watching it grow by the day. This week, I’m working on garden paths. Laying down newspapers and topping off with leaves.

    Enjoy your channel!

  19. Michael Gaughan

    I can empathise with the night shifts. Do you think it makes any difference if the beans are inside or outside of the support? As we share the same weather I put my sweetcorn and beans out on Monday, squashes I'm waiting to put out as I'm afraid.😩

  22. David Redgate

    Heading down your way this weekend to see relatives in Ellington Caravan Park.The allotment will have to fend for it self till I get back just got to make sure the Polly tunnel is well watered as we have had some hot days lately 92 deg. F.

  25. M. Lansley

    New subscriber, just been out today and erected poles and planted my french climbing beans. I put netting around to deter cats, etc.
    However I never thought about the slugs. I am back i doors and locked up for the night. PLEASE, PLEASE STAY OFF MY BEANS, SLUGS.

  27. sue grainger

    Use baking soda to keep slugs off it kills then just put baking soda round your plant and it kills all bugs and it is good for the soil as will

  29. edowlut2004

    Hi Tony, those Hot Wax chillies you sent me all germinated and are looking good, did you pinch the tops out of yours or just let them do there own thing

  30. Susan Mill

    keep an eye out for tomato horn worm – oncee the silks show paint the neckof th ears wiyh a light oil to stop the uggers gettin into the ears!

  32. Wayne's Allotment

    Hi Tony Like you I work shifts so I know how days become blurred, as to what I will be doing I have some France beans to go out some lettuce to go out and some outdoor girl tomatoes to go out.
    Be good
    Wayne

  36. Wendy Rowland

    The sweetcorn will hopefully help to shade the tunnel. Just a tip, plant the beans just inside the cane structure and then you won’t accidentally tread on the base of the plant. I would also run my five headed swan hoe through the ground to get the fertiliser nearer the roots. Cheers.

  38. Patricia Nunez

    You have a soothing way about you. After long day at work I can watch one of your videos and find it very relaxing. You have a wonderful tidy garden, a joy to watch. Thanks so much.
