Always informative watching your videos. Looking forward to a new season!! Cheers 👊👍
There’s nothing like getting your hands in the soil, planting something small, and watching it grow into something beautiful and useful. Thanks for the video! ❤🌱
I use bubble wrap under my sowings in my greenhouse
Many thanks for the book.
AND ONCE AGAIN I AM SERIOUSLY OFFENDED AND DISGUSTED BY THIS OFFENSIVE DISGUSTING ADVERT FOR GARBAGE RAZORS. THEY MUST BE ABSOLUTE GARBAGE IF THE SELLERS HAVE TO RESORT TO SUCH A DISGUSTING INTRODUCTION AND YOUTUBE DO NOTHING ABOUT IT
What is the mesh size of your sifter?
What's the sprayer called please?
How do you prepare Fava beans?
I live in Minnesota so it's not really near our grow season yet, but I'm so excited to start growing!
Hi Ben, thanks again for a great video. Are our chilli pepppers okay planting at this time without a grow light?
Hi, thank you for a great video. A question, can you successfully grow healthy vegetables, e.g looks, kale, cabbage, cauliflower using the end stump which has tiny roots growing at the bottom? I have put these in soil and they seem to be leafing but wondering whether they will grow into healthy, strong vegetables. Thank you
Thank you for sharing your gardening wisdom. Heaven knows we need you more than ever in these crazy times. Can't wait to see you plant out your seedlings.
Starting this weekend
Can i start now with scotch bonnet pepper
I have some all year round Cauliflowers on the go at the moment, all my over winter Onions seem to have died, so will probably plant some more onion sets over the next few months.
Excellent presentation!! Eugene, Oregon
Where exaclty are you situated? Just curios. I assume you also have 4 seasons throughout the year, but in my case spinach at the end of January is a bit too soon.
I dont have room for a greenhouse , so, my kitchen which is large is where Im starting my seeds off . I hzve french doors which attract heat so thats where Im starting
I'll be moving into my first home with a garden in a couple of weeks, it has a greenhouse, can't wait to get going. This will be my first season, can I please ask where you buy your seeds, are there good and bad places to buy seeds?
Your energy and love for what you do is amazing! Forever subscribed
I planted super hot peppers 2nd week in January, along with any peppers, 90 days+ to maturity
They are doing well, and planting early gives time to re-plant if I get a lot of unsuccessful germination.
There seems to be several different types of soil/ compost/ potting soil you use. May I request a list you recommend for beginners and what to use them for please?
I love your presentation style. It's so easy to listen to. It's almost as though you're speaking directly to me. I was sorting through all my vegetable & flower seeds just last night, & beginning to get itchy fingers.
