For 25 years, our family has done the same thing every Daylight Savings.
In this episode of CaliKim UnCut, the day starts in the garden with a few quick fixes, some strangely warm weather, and CameraGuy sharing a few behind-the-scenes camera tricks — before we head out to keep a Daylight Savings tradition we’ve never missed.
If you love backyard gardening, raised bed gardening, and real-life garden vlogs, this episode of CaliKim UnCut takes you behind the scenes of garden life.

Mac 🐕 was always the best in your shots with his handkerchief
it looks like the heat helped with the nutrient uptake for the orange tree. I made orange juice today. I remember on the haunted mansion ride "Please no flash photography" coming out of the speakers. Oh don't forget the ticket book. There were never enought "E" tickets.
Awesome video. I really enjoy the various subjects of them. Thank you. I think we jumped right into spring/summer we're getting right now. North Carolina weather is so crazy-four seasons in one week. LOL.
😂All in the same video:
-This is one of the warmest Winters we've ever had in Southern California
– We had a frost this year, which is very unusual
Luckily, I'm from here too and I get it. We have quite literally been thrown everything in 2026.
A Mon. nite Uncut? Renee the Mac suncatcher was so thoughtful! How unique & beautiful! After the Live I planted 10 6-cell trays of 🌶 peppers! All rare unique varieties! I'm only 30 miles from the beach but its a cruddy Watsonville Slough beach. 45 min to Monterey or SCruz 🌊
❤I’m so glad we’re in SoCal, too. 🌞

Love these uncuts! What a beautiful gift 🫶🦴 Oh my goodness I was fighting with the sun and shadows in my video that I recorded this weekend – you would cringe… LOL! I might need to grab a diffuser. I returned my Osmo 3, I’m sticking to using my cellphone, only bra it’s so easy and always on me. What’s great about citrus is that you don’t need to harvest all at once. Pick and enjoy as needed. Thanks for all of the tips! And I love your sunset tradition… beautiful 💛
