“The dog days of summer are upon us, which means plenty of hot weather. Between now and mid August everything slows down in the garden so we can start spending less time doing and more time enjoying. But for those who need to keep busy, there are always a few things you can do to keep your garden looking beautiful.” ~ P. Allen Smith

Horrible 20 min ad on this video – plastic surgeon. I was working in things and couldn't get back to my phone. FYI. Thank you. Love your show.
More ads! I just stopped another and another comes on. Please tell YouTube to fix this.
love your show. thanks
Bravo, Señor Smith! So many great foods from the garden, the fresher the better! Thank you for sharing .
Field trips! Parents….go see the pumpkin patches as Flowers, return to it in the fall. This should be an ongoing field trip.
Love watching you in the GARDEN. SO much LOVE & CARE.
I always love the shows, this was great multifaceted video. The corn maze tugged at my heart and brought tears to my eyes because it was precovid; my heart yearns for the day the pandemic will subside and we can return to such wonderful activities in the ways we used to do.
Always learning something new!
Tomato sauce looks delicious. Happy Fourth of July to you.
Very useful and important tips dear 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
I like your informative videos….but some are ruined by adding NOISIE MUSIC in between subjects, if you need music why not some gentle type music , thank you.
Love! Love! Your garden ideas and recipes! God bless you and your world 🙂 🙂
They say its illegal to catch rainwater here in Ca. But nobody emforces it.
I think your ancester Sir Edward Smith married my ancester Lady Constance Lucy?
I am growing Roma tomatoes now, and we are eating them as they come off the vine. We love them.
Love your tutorials. I always learn a lot. When you use vinegar for killing weeds, do you spray the roots or the whole weed. Also, does vinegar kill grass,, when it is between patio blocks and elsewhere. Thank you, Jean
