  1. I want to start my first garden next year what do you recommend either online wise or book wise start learning how to grow vegetables and went to grow them in the area that you live I have a huge yard but I plan to move next year so I’m going to do container bucket gardening until I move

  2. Becky you r so amazing! I learn so much from you as you pack so much information about your different varieties of plants.. all your thoughts on what you have planted ..for a beginner u really know so much about your garden. I’m so excited about your upcoming patio garden of planting in small areas ! I definitely am looking forward to that because that is the way I have to garden. I’m physically challenged so I can’t do much at a time because I start hurting too bad ..but I love to garden and it’s so contagious watching your videos because you get such a delight in planting and then getting to harvest and I’m the same way even if it’s a single little tomato on the vine it’s thrilling when all the work and time u put into it comes to fruition! It’s so exiting to watch as you go through your garden as you explain so much and it helps us learn as you are learning your garden too! Do you keep a journal on all your garden information ex like next year I’m going to plant this bed entirely with such n such beans .. I would forget by next year if I didn’t write it down. Ha . But I love all that you do on your channel but going to the garden and doing stuff there is my favorite,so much fun to watch, canning , putting up your harvest in any way shape or fashion that you do , and cooking ! Great video ! I grew my first butternut last year when it just came up as a volunteer plant .. I could only tell it was a type of squash so it was so much fun watching it grow and find out what it was going to become! BTW It was delicious! Thank you for motivating us to get out there and garden! Blessings!❤️

  3. I absolutely love your videos.. I love gardening and I am a first timer also. I just started a handful garden of bush beans, tomatoes and okra last year. And this year on my balcony I have peppers, tomatoes, herbs and flowers.

  4. Katie we love beets. I cut them up and put them on a sheet pan. I then put olive oil, balsamic vinegar and any herbs you want. We like them without herbs. Bake on 450° until well roasted. What do you do with your beat greens? What do you do with all that calendula?

  5. Cabbage growing tip: my grandma used to always take one of the cabbage leaves from the outside of the plant and lay it on top of the head as it grew so that bugs would not burrow or eat into the head. Works like a charm! Loofa will grow anywhere if it’s nice and warm… Unfortunately they take forever to get going. I start/plant mine in the greenhouse every year… by this time they are just starting to grow LOL I am zone 3B northern Canada

  6. Hey Becky, I’m loving your garden and watching your progress. I’m fairly newish to your vids so I may not have watched the calendular one yet, but can you tell me why you harvest calendular every day? Do you make tea or what? Thanks and keep up the good work.

  7. Watching you has me thinking I need to make a map for my garden so I can know what I planted and just print it out when I update. Be helpful so I can make notes of what did well in which area!

  8. Does your community allow rain catchment systems? If so, have you given much thought into collecting the rain off the workshop for the gardens? Your garden is beautiful! 😀
