Welcome to a different kind of gardening video! Today, I take on a personal challenge: completing 100 garden jobs in just one day – all in my own garden. From mowing and watering, to planting, pressure washing, pruning, and a few surprises along the way, I tackled a huge list of real-life tasks that every gardener faces.

This video is packed with helpful tips, satisfying progress shots, and realistic gardening motivation. Whether you’re new to gardening or just need a boost to tackle your own garden to-do list, this one’s for you.

  1. Aww I just love your little slice of paradise over there! All the little jobs sure add up don't they? I think you did a fantastic job, Of course. Well except for running out of paint, but meh😊 it happens. I hope you had a wonderful holiday/vacation. May I ask where you went? Looking forward to your next video. Blessings to Cowboy and his 3 cowgirls, from Washington State. 💛🖤💛 Stacy

  2. 2 'mistakes' Martin. The hook AND painting the gate fixing after fitting the catch 😁
    As a fellow allotmenteer myself & i'm sure other viewer are too, perhaps an episode or two on your plot would be nice.
    Beau vacances

  3. Very jealous of your lush green lawn. This southern uk gardener has a shamefully brown lawn. But in my style i embrace nature and say "dont waste water. It'll bounce back." Im currently doubting that theory, though, as the dogs are doing their best bird impression having dust baths on it. If only they wouldnt then walk the dust through the house, housework to me is what painting is to you 😂

  4. Lovely video, love the herb planter ❤ and garlic chives, I’ve sown them this year for the first time and as tiny as they still are, I love them; I hope they make it through the winter. Must have been distracted by my cat, I didn’t hear what you did wrong with the door fixture. Perhaps put the hook on the wall? Have a lovely holiday, hope your back will be fully healed after a weeks rest.

  5. Es gibt genug, die stundenlang Rasen mähen, oder Müll wegräumen, oder Hecken stutzen. Fangen Sie das bitte nicht an, das gibt es bereits genug. Wenig gibt es, die Beete ordentlich pflegen, etwas zu Pflanzen erklären, Tips und Tricks geben. Das ist Ihr Metier. Und da habe ich Freude zuzuschauen.

  6. Loved the video. Your backyard is the perfect size and is decorated with just the right type of things for the adults and the children. I really like the two sinks and how you incorporated them into your little slice of paradise. It is very common to have gardeners with messy backyards, physicians with untreated illnesses, bankers with personal finances issues, and cooks with takeout containers in the fridge, so don't worry about it. You are in good standing with the rest of us. Running out of stain is par for the course. I tend to agree with you about the painting. I hope you and your family had a wonderful vacation and that you actually were able to rest and relax.

  7. What a cute garden you have and your family is darling. As one would expect from an expert and hope when you return from your well deserved holiday everything will be thriving and full. Make note to buy paint for the chair 😉 You always have great ideas for extending your garden I wasn't aware you had an allotment I hope you will be allowed to keep it you know who is taking them away from us. Make profit scheme again. Have a great time Martin and family

  8. Tell your daughter, Cathy I said hi from the U.S, Louisiana. My name is Cathy too! I don’t hear that name being given to children anymore. It made me smile.

  9. Shame marine varnish feels slightly tacky when dry, it would mean far fewer years of staining the furniture. The door yard looks lovely, hope the family holiday was restful and fun.

  10. Thanks Martin for your vid 😇💗💗💗love and bless you guys ❤😊good work in your own garden 😊happy vacation 😊

  11. What a charming video! You have such a beautiful back yard – I'm envious. Hope you all enjoyed your holiday. Oh, one thing … do you wash out used plant pots?

  12. Martin and Family enjoy your holiday, You and your family has a beautiful garden, I love the old sinks you repurpose into a herb garden and a water garden

  13. Such a lovely backyard. The water feature is nice. Our only water feature is a birdbath. But it gets well used!

  14. Thats a great garden! I don't much like painting wood in the garden either – fence painting is my pet hate but it has to get done! By the way you mentioned your allotment, do you plan to do some videos on that? As an allotment holder myself it would be interesting to hear your take on things allotment related. Have a great holiday!

  15. You have a wonderful garden! Watching you do all those tasks remembered me what I have to do in my garden. So I better get downstairs and start with, well, something xD Bit by bit, no need to do all at once. I wish you and your wonderful family an amazing holiday, have a wonderful time and take care 🌻

    edit: the newsletter is a great idea, just subscribed for it 🙂

  16. Many thanks for the video. It is great to see the variety of jobs being done around the garden and to see the difference. Enjoy your holiday and I look forward to seeing further videos.

  17. Your garden looks terrific. No…. it is not lazy for you to use the robot lawn mower…. you have earned the privilege! It is working smarter, not harder. You were able to take care of lots of other tasks at the same time. I think you should name it for fun. 😊❤👍 I hope you had a lovely holiday and since it was with 4 children, that you get a good rest when you get home. 🤣🤣

  18. Love watching your videos, does it take you a long time to edit? Was thinking about doing it myself as I’m a self employed gardener as well.

  19. Hi, you haven't replied to my email in a while. When will the review of the HITWAY ebike be published?

  20. Great job painting the 4 chairs and table and love the music😂 well you did a great job on the rest of the garden too!🤙
