Two veg. superheroes meet up. Wonderful!

Two of the finest ‘you tube’ gardeners together. Intelligent, articulate, informative, with great presenting skills. It’s a shame you are both not presenting on Gardeners World as you deserve to be on our TV’s every week.

As of today Charles has 499 videos. I have watched every single one, many multiple times. I have 2 of his books, 2 of his calendars, and a whole bunch of his trays. He changed the way I grow vegetables. Since switching to his methods, my production and time efficiency has increased greatly. This was a very good video, done well. Thanks for sharing.

Charles is the only person that I believe these days regarding horticulture. I can go back through old videos and the answer is there somewhere. Thanks Charles, I couldn't do it without you.

Good morning Ben, thank you so much for taking us with to Mr Charles Dowding, what a gentleman! He has such ambition, he exercised patience and perseverance right from when he started up until today. He just followed his instincts and worked with the soil. The most important thing he did was to correct the soil, added so much natural material from his first bed up to now. How magnificently his garden has grown. Well done. What I find so important is to keep the garden free and clear from any invaders, also not giving way for pests and diseases to get a foot hold in the soil nor plants. it was such a treat listening to Mr. Charles and you have enjoyed your visit tremendously. Thank you Ben it was such an informative garden walk and talk programme. Do enjoy a great day, looking forward to your next video. Kind regards, Elize.

Charles always seems so happy and to be honest, when you make a living growing plants and being able to enjoy all that nature... it's not too surprising.
