Elaine and Julia are back, taking refuge in the new summer house at Potty Plotters HQ due to the unseasonably cold September weather. In this episode, they discuss the challenges of managing allotments and gardens during unpredictable weather, with a focus on wildlife and the impact of frost on their beloved dahlias and other plants.

The duo shares their experiences with the recent frost, the importance of timing when planting, and how the weather has affected their harvests this year. They also delve into the joys and frustrations of growing tomatoes and cucumbers, offering tips on how to manage late-season crops.

Julia reveals a clever hack for organizing seed packets, ensuring she always knows what she's planting. They also discuss the importance of planning for next year, even when this year's harvest has been disappointing.

Listener questions are addressed, including advice on dealing with wonky parsnips and exploding sweet peas. Elaine and Julia also talk about the diverse wildlife they encounter on their plots, from ducks and swans to foxes and hedgehogs, and the challenges of managing pests and diseases like powdery mildew and rust.
