  1. I want to build a greenhouse this summer so that I can start plants earlier in Canadian spring. Will I have to use a space heater during frost nights?
    Should all the windows be able to open?
    Is there any plants that you keep in the greenhouse all year long?

  2. You plant your tomatoes outside once the risk of frost is over? You don't wait until you have a lowest outside temperature of around 10 C outside during the nights?

  3. I must be in a different zone. 4 degrees here, minus 7 with windchill. my garden is inside my patio door for a while. as soon a the sun crosses the line I will plant and cover at night in frost warnings.

  4. Chiming in from western New York. 1/2 mile south of Lake Ontario. I have most of my 200 sq ft vegetable garden in. Now encroaching into my wife’s flower/ perimeter garden. Adding companion plants , marigolds, carrots, bunching onions. Thanks for the additional idea of dill Really appreciate your to the point videos and your enthusiasm

  5. I use a giant dog crate as a temporary greenhouse, covered in the plastic that covered my freezer, when i bought it…. ! I can fold it up and put it away once i've planted out all my baby plants. I have very limited space to grow plants….south facing walled terraced house yard. You would not believe how much food i can fit in…all in containers…forget brassicas, though…

  6. Please tell my wife we need more plantings! She doesnt like my pallet plantings in our garden. Theyre ugly she says. Dont mind eating the produce tho.

    Everything grows great except my companion flowers, like wtf. Talk about slow runners

  7. Love yoiur informative video guides to growing veg. I'm curious as to which part of the country you live in as you mention the colder climate? We've been blessed with courgettes for the last couple of weeks here in Wiltshire

  8. my sunday morning viewing, even the wife is getting into this and my new plot. but where can i pay Ben for his advice services to come and view my plot in North Kent…? 😉

  9. Sadly I have Texas Bermuda grass and don’t DARE use gras clippings as mulch. But we have pecan farms all around us, so I’m going to avail myself of a few loads of it.

  10. I started gardening aged 6 with my gran 55 years ago. We had pots , barrels and planters.
    to this day I still plant grans plants in pots , barrels and planters. All my other veg goes into raised beds Ala square foot gardening.
    Unbelievable how much food can be grown in such a small area.
    Fruit ….. columnar fruit trees. lift up one patio flag and plant 4 fruit trees. mini orchard for any tiny garden.
    even at my age, new root stocks or varieties of veg often surprise me.

  11. Hi Ben. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video! I live in a relatively hot climate in the south of USA. Do you have any tips for keeping nasturtiums alive? Thanks.
