  1. Wow Bro… I'm really Impressed!! The Buried PEX Fascinates me. I assume a boiler or hot water heater and a recirculating pump? Much like Soil Warning Cables but much more efficient!

    The Lower and Lean is my favorite because the tops stay within normal reach and prune all the leaves of the vines.. it's amazing how long they get in a season with indeterminate varieties and 20' vines lol!

    Rock On.. This is Incredible

  2. Thanks for all you are doing sharing your experience! I have a question: I watch many speeches of JMF on youtube and he is always saying that by the end of summer his costumers are fed up with tomatoes! so why extending the season at an expensive cost? thanks a lot.

  3. Hi Curtis, with the Pex tubing, I'm assuming they've calculated optimum depth so that the tubes are not too deep that the heat doesn't reach the roots and not too shallow that they could be damaged by tools. What is in the tubes – is it water or a chemical? Have you ever heard of the same thing being done with warm air, recycled from the tunnel during the day? Wondering how those tomato plants get dropped down and spiralled without snapping the stems. Will try to find a supplier of Tomahooks in the UK but only found them in the US so far.

  4. I personally like your professionalism in vlogs and we LOVE your field trips to JM's farms!!!! We love that you keep your interaction verbally a family friendly show….. love all the material that you include on video logs as we know you have excellent choices and content. Even though your hosts seem to be candid on vocabulary, We appreciate you have a family friendly mindset….. Thank you for keeping us educated and our young upcoming farmers as well. Love all your videos!

  5. ok so people buy huge quantities of seed to grow microgreens, how is that ethical in a starving world when those same seeds, if grown into full sized plants, would produce far greater quantities of food? and seeds for the future on top of that?

    Not trying to talk shit – just something thats been on my mind.

  6. I've been thinking about how to use pex tubing in conjunction with a composting heater to warm rows. Seems simpler than I imagined. Awesome seeing it done to some degree, I wonder how he powers the heat. Properly done, you can use a compost pile to heat water well above 120 degrees Fahrenheit.
