In this video, I share 25 veggies you can plant in April right now! Seed starting season begins to wind down in April, and we must get moving ASAP while there is still time to start seeds for spring! The crops in this video can still be sown in April for an incredible spring and summer vegetable garden, with many giving you the flexibility to start seeds indoors and transplant later or for direct sowing right now. Plus, I share a BONUS CROP to help take your garden to the next level!

What’s that sonny? I gotta see porn for my prostate??
Do you sell at the local market?
Our garden has been nice more successful since we started following your channel. Do you have any suggestions for growing lettuce indoors? I'm in the Florida Big and my older in-ground plants started bolting this week. We're already unseasonably warm.
Thanks ❤
I need a search for your site! I really need to find your miracle tomato planting tips! Worked so great last year.
Great having a gardener close to me in Horry County SC. THANK YOU! Need advice⁹ I start my seeds in ,y Aerogarden. Transplanted a lot of my veggies a couple weeks ago. I've noticing yellowing around the leaf edges on some, cukes, squashes and overall pale green on some peppers. My beds are filled with homemade compost n miracle grow garden soil. They're thriving, but want to head off any upcoming ing issues. TIA…Love your videos
Your information is amazing thank youvery muchSir,for sharing
💪🏻
Must be nice Maine gonna fcking snow but babies going lemon trees popping off like mofo in house
Did you move the fruit trees too??
Love the content but the "you may be falling behind" fills me with dread. Our low tomorrow is 28, ok? Not everyone lives in balmy Carolinas!
I am in the Myrtle Beach area and have been considering some sort of similar roof structure to provide shade. Can’t wait to see what you have in mind! Thanks for all of your videos!
I thought I knew gardening but wow you can teach an old dog new tricks😊
When can I grow green bush b3ans? I'm in Houston.
QUESTION, I have a problem with slugs. I put bait out well in advance. Thought I solved it. But all my zucchini and squash started dying. Found a slug under the ground in the roots. Lost all of them. Got any suggestions?
Our weather has been stupid in NJ lately. We had an almost 80 degree day a week ago and next week it will get down to 23
What if you do a roof but have beans going up the poles
haha, snow in forecast.
Just found your channel and I love your detailed videos.
Greetings. I really appreciate your videos. You recently did a spot on the differences of raised bed and container soils. I cannot locate it. I think it was a reel. Anyway, I exclusively use 55 food grade drums cut in half. Would you consider these container or raised bed? I cannot locate any source for organic bulk soil in East TN so I am purchasing through Home Depot ($$$$$). I need at least 5 yards. Would you have an alternative?
Very Snazzy outdoor bed for Sweet Dale! ❤🐾 And your new garden area is looking great!
I will plant some of what you mentioned by the 15th ! Your videos are always helpful!
