So the seed onions are just onions that didn't have enough time to grow in the season before? I'm planting these for the first time this fall and don't know what I'm getting myself into.
Part 2 please!!
Yes part 2

Yes, part 2.
Would love to see a part two!
I'm a minute into this video and I already have an Associates Degree in Chemistry as it relates to chocolate. It's a good day in Wyandotte, MI. because of the extra knowledge nuggets presented here.
Loved this!! I would definitely like the part 2!
Love to see a part 2.
The cucumber is a melon was the best!
That was very interesting. looking forward to part 2 as well!
Hi Luke, yes please do a part two!! I really enjoyed watching this. I just purchased a cucumber mint white tea which has a distinctive sweet cucumber flavor up front. So it was interesting to me to find out that many parts of the world consider a cucumber to be a fruit. Love your channel
More Please!
Talking about chocolate you lost me
I am more confused, to many Metaphors
Very interesting. I'd like to see more fun facts. You might consider having a fun fact with each video.
I would love to learn more. Part two & beyond.
Yes make some more love to know more fun facts to share with my Kids and friends
Why do you exist?
In the deep south, we have to start all of our onions from true seed because it's very difficult to find short-day onion sets. All the big box hardware stores here rip off new gardeners by selling cheap onion sets, but they aren't labelled by variety, and they are almost always long-day varieties that won't ever form large bulbs in the deep south. So we order true onion seed online and always make sure to find varieties that are specifically labeled as short-day. I usually start my onion seeds in the shade in August and then transplant the seedlings into the garden in October. I start another crop of onion seeds in the greenhouse in late November to transplant out to the garden in February. I'll never make the mistake of buying onion sets again. I've tried to plant apple cultivars from the nursery a few times here, but they always die in the heat of summer. Fortunately, the handful of apples that I have started from seed are hardier and seem to handle the heat better than the cultivars. I'll likely get small sour fruits though and will have to make applesauce and cider and pie. San Marzano tomatoes are like Vidalia onions. Anyone can legally grow them, but they can't be marketed and sold as "San Marzano" or "Vidalia" unless they are grown in that protected region. There's quite a few foods that have protection of origin designation, from champagne to parmesan. Cucumber juice, yum!!!
Yea Cuz! part deuce for sure!
This reminds me of Levi Explains. So of course more.
Just because you treat a fruit as a vegetable, it doesn't make it a vegetable. Just saying. They're nightshade fruit.
I enjoyed the fun fact, please keep rolling them in.
Loved the fun facts! Waiting for part 2
