Why don't you have any broccoli and cauliflower?
love it I have been paint my t-post different colors for awhile. People said it was a WASTE OF paint. I think it look lovely…..
Hello Jessy. I love the way you explain everything about your garden . Where are your PHISALLIS ? I love your JUNQUILHOS . I don't know the name in english . That's the portuguese name for that beautiful yellow flower . Lots of good luck for you all and your gardens. Kisses
Have you told us how you stocked your raised beds, soil wise I mean?
Just kind of curious regarding the goat manure/compost you used for the potatoes. What's the rule of thumb in using it so that you don't get Ecoli, especially with a root vegy like potatoes? Does it need to be in the sun for X amount of days?
really love your videos, and your insights, and everything about your channel….just one thing…..what's up with the tires? Please for my sanity get rid of those old white truck tires – they are an eye sore, and add no beauty to your gardens, plus they are inorganic…please, please Jess…..get rid of them!
Loved in re: to chives, “they look like Truffula Trees and I need them in my life!!” Ahhhh good ole Dr. Seuss. ❤️ I am loving how you leave many things in your garden after they are spent, either to re-seed or for the bees, or to gather their seed. I think I’ll try that with a few plants this year.
I wish you could have a calab with Monty Don. He is so good
Okra is good in soup!
I start my seeds in January or February.
Shrub Rose's are beauriful!
Hey Jess, sunflowers excrete a natural herbicide that deters other plants from growing under them. If you plant a lot of them in a bed you will see other plants struggling near them.
Plant the roses
These videos get me through winter
Another quality video. Thank you. Plant my peas last week in April.
Good idea with succession planting with okra.
I learn so much from you. Thank you
What are you wearing?! I love it. I need it
love this,,,,,,,,, love Y'all
I live in zone 3 and my chives overwintered fine with no attention in a tiny pot lol
Planted my cherry tomato bed yesterday, accidentally planted a Black Beauty in there because I marked it BKB and I thought it was a blue cream berry and remembered after xD
Do you still have those rock beds? Or did you change them out for wood .
