  1. That's good to hear. I was afraid that you might have lost a few fingers replacing your Pilot Bearing.
    Typing too fast has never been a problem for me and my index finger.

  2. they are rather hard to germinate because they require stratification… its just big word for putting it in your fridge for 3-4 weeks on a damp paper towel. then planting in soil.

  3. Hi! The blueberry seeds my be crushed because its hard to separate from the pulp and they use a blender for it, maybe that's way they send 50 of them. The seeds can be different in sizes, and the bigger ones germinates better. I had 15 seeds from a fruit, i had them in the window-still on wet paper towel since august, then 4 germinated around 1 month ago, transplanted them to soil, but only one survived. Its in the 'getting stronger' stage…
    This was my first try, i cant wait for your result!

  4. The Micro Gardener, Have you considered growing mini bell peppers? It fits the "micro" feel because the fruits are vary small in size. I'm not sure if the plants are dwarfed though. Anyways this is an awesome idea for a a channel wish I'd though of it. Best of luck 🙂

  5. Hey Luke, maybe the olive seeds are like canna lilly's which have a shell that needs to be soaked then clipped, sanded, or ?? to expose the inside flesh so it will sprout. Otherwise it take month if not more to get out of the shell.

  6. I will be growing micro-bell peppers. I do not have any seed. and thats fine! because even though the plants might get big the fruit is small and novelty sized! but I can also agressivly prune it too.

  7. Papayas are supposed to grow easy but you may want some bottom heat. I think dwarf olives are purely ornamental and dont really fruit, it should be interesting if you get something though that could make an excellent bonsai regardless. Good luck with your plants.

  8. I grew 2 Tophat (dwarf) blueberry a few years ago. One thing you should be aware of, at least for mine, the root system was even wider than the canopy (the widest part of the plant). So you will need a wider than normal pot. But, you will LOVE these plants. And they make incredibly GREAT gifts.

  9. I would suggest planning what you'll be doing in your videos before hand and avoid distractions. It'll make your videos more professional and make you look more credible. Including links to where you ordered your seeds/plant will help viewers finding what you've shown if they want to do the same in their own homes. Hope these suggestions improve your future videos.

  10. Hey if you didn't buy stratified blueberry seeds they will not grow until they have been cold…just a tip I learned when looking for top hat blueberry seeds online, and you've inspired me to purchase the tiny banana online ( from Florida as well ) and I can't wait for it to arrive. This year I grew Mini red bell peppers the plants were a foot and a half tall and two inch mini bell peppers all over it. I saved the seed for the seed exchange or give a way..Great video's

  11. Hey MicroGardener! Im really enjoying your channel. I messaged you on your facebook page, the MI Gardener. I appreciate what you do and enjoy growing tropical myself! I don't have the extensive collection you do, but its getting there. Cool to see you're in Michigan, I am as well. I'm around Brighton/Ann Arbor area. Would love for you to email me. Got so many questions! bryanstrongarm@gmail.com
