Self Sufficient Me is based on our small 3-acre property/homestead in SE Queensland Australia about 45kms north of Brisbane – the climate is subtropical (similar to Florida). I started Self Sufficient Me in 2011 as a blog website project where I document and write about backyard food growing, self-sufficiency, and urban farming in general. I love sharing my foodie and DIY adventures online so come along with me and let’s get into it! Cheers, Mark 🙂
LOL at the American accent. I say or-egg-ano.
Awesome tips!!
It's look like not oregano
Loved this video. Pretty cool guy. I am going keep watching, love
thanks for the great tips. i am curious tho. is your Oregano plant just one plant? or did you keep adding cuttings or smaller plants? thank you sir.
Thank you so much for your videos! They finally helped me convince my wife to get the Hoselink. She loves it so much she wants another one for the front of the house.
Thanks, Mark. Always to the point, sensible and ego-free.
I always enjoy watching your videos because you keep your information short, entertaining and memorable (easy to repeat back). Do you have any information on how to repot, grow and care for marjoram and rosemary that you got from a store that was selling them for cheap? I am a perpetual brown thumber, but also can't resist discounted plants. Most of them have found their final resting place (RIP) under my care. So I want to stop killing them.

Thank you amigo. Nice tips in this video. Especially the pronunciation, lol. Always learning something new in your Channel. Thanks again.
I'm American and just love the way he says oregano.
this oregano plant looks like it would fit inside a distiller to draw essential oils from it with a distiller to make it shelf stable .
With ear infections or muscular tenseness use it but use it with carrier oil such as olive oil.
esseential oils are very quicly absorbed onto 1 or 2 cm under your skin and goes right where you want it to go.
The only side effect is feeling heat on your skin , but that one is common and can't do any harm as long you don't use in on your eye lits.Use it on your sinusses during harsh climate days , or during cold or flue seasons.
I just learned that finns pronounce oregane closest to the australians.
I also had a flourishing oregano, and it started growing flowers. I had never seen oregano flowers so I decided to let it grow them. But finnish summer is great and after a month of too hot weather (it seems like lately 30C is the new norm in the finnish summer, but only for a week or two) the august was below 10 C at night so I moved it inside with other herbs. It kept going great. Until I turned it (hoping for it to strive a bit more perky upwards instead of going down and sideways) and it was left a bit in the shade. Alas, one day of that shade and everything had withered away as if I had dried the oregano on paper for a week. The flowers and all of the big stems and leaves all the way.
Now here's the part that makes me nuts. I thought "oh well go ahead and die in the outside then if that was your decision" and moved it back on the balcony with rather cold days (barely above 10 C) and colder nights and no watering. Fully abandoned a dead plant to completely die out. I'd like to call my oregano plant with a nasty name, because that little "dead" plant in those harsh conditions decided that it's the perfect environment not to die. After a week I looked at it and it kinda looked like it was not giving up but kinda seemed like it was recovering very slowly. I hadn't even pruned it, long strands full of dead leaves and flowers. But the stems looked like they were actually not brown and dried out so I brought it back inside. It seemed to gain more vitality, more springyness so I decided to prune the long strands with dead leaves. After one day from pruning, it seems like there's been new fresh green starts of leaves and the stems look like they're wanting to spring upwards from stable horizontal self-maintained position they had acquired, that had come along after all drooping.
What an amazing plant. This will survive even my caretaking.
Your American accident hurt me.
Great example of beautiful and useful, ….very decorative,beautiful and healthy plant, ,,budget friendly “ gardening
I have ever heard a name plant like coffee, today and it's oregano
Can you show the holes you have in the half wine barrels
Americans pronounce it with a long "A" sound in "ray". "O-rAy-ganO"

It’s cold here right now even though it’s just fall…
I’m in the mountains of Tennessee…
but I told my husband I want him to build me some wood boxes so that I can grow some of my own herbs this spring that I use in my spiritual Workings …
such as oregano peppermint chamomile lavender rosemary and many others …
I usually go up in the mountains and go foraging for herbs roots leaves flowers etc. but some stuff that I cannot find in the mountains I want to grow here at home now…
looks like I will be learning a lot from you …
thank you for sharing
Blessed be
Great video! I was surprised growing oregano for the first time how hardy it was over the hot East Texas summer, as well as over winter, surviving sub freezing temperatures and a light snowfall. It looked amazing the following spring.
In portuguese is "orégano". I'm watching from Florianópolis-Brasil. Thanks for the video, great content!
Thank you bro..
No fumen orégano banda, sabe bien qlero
