Watching you and Rascal just really warms my heart
Have you ever eaten the immature radish seed pods? They are delicious
Love the tour. You and I can get along very well. You are not very fond of eggplants. I, on the other hand, just love them 🙂 Too bad you live too far away:-)
I really love grape tomatoes.
thanks for taking me with you around the garden today
have you/anyone ever had birds pick at your cabbage in your garden?
We here in Wv would love to share all our rain with you!
You have the most amazing, kind character. Don't ever change or stop doing what you are doing. You inspire people to be better every day and not just with their gardens.
In the future, when you can't eat all your radishes before they get tough, pick a bunch and ferment them. Very easy – John, on Growing Your Greens has a video – and soooooo good for you; they will keep in the fridge, after fermenting, for many months.
great video
Hey Ray I have over 35 bags of chipped hedge trimmings piled up in my wooden pallet compost bin, and in a part of my garden I did not plant in this year. Looking for advice on what steps to take in getting the trimmings to break down into compost. I am going to construct 1st time raised beds, getting to old to be bending over picking vegetables and weeding? Enjoy all your videos. Over the years have leaned so much of not over thinking on how to garden, but to just do the "Simple Rays Method".
Thanks, Ray! The tip about thinning green onions by pulling the larger ones, is great! Something I've never thought about!
Hi Ray, love you and your critters. Would you please share your Mulberry tree with us? there is an old one about 30 foot tall in a field behind us, I know nothing about them.
you're like the bob ross of gardening.
Hi Ray! I've been educating myself since mid last year watching your channel. It's great how you seem to intuitively and respectfully grow food according to natures wisdom. I will be incorporating your knowledge since I've moved to an ideal location for farming. OMG!!! Rascal is the most adorable companion ever! Love his extra long eye lashes!! Thank you much for your channel and dedication to your lifestyle and viewers.
Great video and tips, I loved all the Rascal shots 😀 Also there's nothing better than munching on your garden, especially green onion tops.
Those green onions are lovely. If I didn't have green onions and chives always on hand I don't think I would be able to cook. I use them on everything lol.
You grow baby mice and I grow baby bunnies in the garden. Well done!
I love all your videos Ray!I wish you were my neighbor.
Always a pleasure to watch your videos 🙂 You and Rascal are ONE…so endearing. I send you all love.
Don't pull your onions cut them so the root stays and they grow back then you get two or three harvest from the same root
Thanks for the info
I enjoyed your video very much, thanks for sharing.
mice are pests, but LOVE that you can't kill baby mice.
HOLY COW RAY : I live in a wooded area. what ate my corn plants~~~~~ ?? BOOO HOO
I can watch your videos all day! I want to share my experience with growing greens. I've never gardened before and this is my first year and so I started out with easy growing veggies like kale, butter crunch, and collard greens. (I do have other things in my garden though too). I made ollas and planted them evenly throughout my garden bed and my greens are just taking off like crazy. They grow fast, large, and beautiful. I do a full harvest almost every three days, just crazy. All I do is fill up my ollas with filtered water… that's it. I do have compost mixed into my soil as well, but I think it's the constant steady watering from the ollas that's made a huge impact in my garden. I wish I could post pictures on here.
I wanted to know if you have tried ollas in the past or have any plans for it in the future? It's made such an impact in my garden so wanted to know if this is something you've thought of.

Hey Ray I was wondering was you going to grow that cassbanana this year
Hey is it possible you can help me with a little problem I am having? I got some indoors plants and around them there are flying some small flies not bannana flies they are an other kind and the problem is that the flies lay eggs in the soil for my plants and then there are comming small mites what can I do to the problem? I think that Leca Stones could do something to the problem
Great video Ray, keep making the amazing and unique youtube videos!
I grew a type of lettuce here in KC, planted very early spring, called Santa Fe. I have been picking on it for months! We've had strings of 100 plus days, and it has still not bolted! And the mature leaves are not bitter. This will always be a staple in my spring through summer garden! I've been letting a couple of heads just do their thing, just to see what will happen. Still no bolting, still sweet, crispy with a hint of wilt. It's beautiful;, too, with bright green graduating into a deep purple. I cannot recommend this variety enough!
Hi Ray, I'm not sure whether I missed the episode when you were prepping your garden for the spring but I wanted to ask you whether you dump all the old soil (from last season) out from your raised bed and refill it with new soil or do you just re-use the soil and add in fresh compost?
Thanks again Ray. I've been looking for sunflower info. Something is breaking the stems about 6" from ground. Squirres? Rabbits? I found info. that said I should sprinkle some Cayenne Pepper around to keep squirrels away. Did that last night, and 2 more stems were broken today!! Now I've put in some chicken poop around them. Any ideas from you?
The Jerusalem artichokes are actually pretty resistant to dry weather. If you deep water them from the start (to make sure they have deep roots), then you can get away with only 2 – 4 irrigations per month. Last year we didn't have rain for 2,5 months (and very hot weather) and they started wilting only after like a month.
hi ray. my Roma tomato plant is flowering but it's not bearing fruit. I don't know what to do.
I let my radishes go to seed this yr. as well, and had hummingbirds feeding on the flowers 🙂 Rascal's adorable. Thanks & peace to ya.
Ray – I love your videos! I am finally getting some time and I am catching up with them. Who needs pollinating bees when one has a Rascal? Today is a great day! I am able to watch your videos and giggle along with you!
Hey Ray, I think it's better if I send you a gift card and you can get the one you like, I got a mixer but it big and heavy, so the cost of send it probably more then the cost of how much my mixer cost. So look out for a letter from Jacquelynn Stroup. I am sending it today.
do you grow figs? I love them!
Awesome….your videos are super enjoyable. thank you for taking the time to share with us, newbies..cheers
Ray osem video and your garden looks really nice everything looks really tasty
