Thanks Pete!! Very interesting and inspirational.
So sorry about your mom. Lost mine two years ago.
Sounds like he might have some kind of mineral deficiency on those sweet potatoes
Outstanding video! I smiled all the way thru!!
Grand Master Kovaleski showing the world that small scale market gardening and permaculture isa beautiful thing. Dirty hands Green Dreams
Great work
Love seeing what Jim is up to. I have about 20 x 4m beds and nooks and crannies!!!
As always I absolutely loved this video! So sorry to hear about the passing of his mother. My own mother passed this past Good Friday. So sorry for your loss Jim. Looks like you are doing very well and your life is getting much fuller! So happy for all your progress. God bless. 🥰❤️🙏🏻🇨🇦
Jim’s a Renaissance Man. Every now and then he veers off into other topics showing his well rounded knowledge. That’s great he is mentoring a younger generation.
Can’t thank y’all enough for these videos , beautiful stuff you have going here.
Thanks Pete, great video. Length was no problem, always love catching up with Jim. He is so inspirational and such a good grower. Hope you all had an amazing Christmas. God bless you all. Love from Australia 🥰🙏🥑🥬🥦🧄🥒🌽🥕🥔
Heath Ledger is alive and well 😁
Condolences to Jim and his family for his mother's passing. He's right, 94 and going quickly, you can't ask for much more. This is his best video yet. There's a palpable sense of renewed energy in him. He seems so energetic and happy. It's great he gets to pass on all the knowledge he has to a protégé. Keep these coming. I love that he allows himself to accept new ideas and see how they can work with his setup. Excellent.
anyone worried about lead paint growing so close to and old painted house?
Great video! At 32:26 Jim talks about running salt water through his compost to make compost tea. So effectively using "c90 (sea 90?) and compost tea". Can you tell me what that means? Is there another video?
Sorry to hear about your mothers passing Jim. Hang in there!
OMG! that young fella has such a deep voice..I LOVE IT!!
I want jim growing on shelves in the back! He can double his output! I want jim teraforming the public street! Give him some scaffolding!
Jim needs food delivery robots!
BSF larvae sounds like macaroni in the pot
It is really hard to say goodbye be brave we all will be united again one day. Thank you for the inspiration. Greetings from Cologne Germany
That was a super cool episode, great entertaining banter between you all that's drenched in so much knowledge…
Great work, thanks very much
Happy new year, Thank you for all you great video's in 2022😁
Well worth watching this episode. Thanks
So sorry to hear about Jim’s mom 🙁 RIP💜
My sweet potatoes did terrible in the places where my soil was good. They did better in the areas where the soil was less quality and more compact. It's a strange deal man!
This guy…. People so overthink everything and this guy is just like calm down, it really is just a knowing feeling you get from growing food. My mom grew up on a full functioning farm, like no indoor plumbing until she was 10 I'm the only kid that picked up on " that" feeling on it's common sense on how to garden,
I need to learn more about your soil block system. We want to implement it here. Thank you
Did Jim wash the seaweed before using it on his bed?
That was lovely and hoping to see the rest of Jim's family when they come to visit. Must go check NPR recycle; hoping the compost is available again (is the tree snail fear over?) Jim and Tanner make a good pair.
Hey why don’t he grow sweet potatoes in hay bails. This would be what I would do thank about it.
Awesome video. So sorry for your loss, Jim. I was still harvesting fresh tomatoes the first week of November in my greenhouse zone 8! Green houses are the bomb.
Tanner's voice should be on the radio. :}
I honestly think you could do an episode with Jim every week, great stuff! Unfortunately nowadays only Pro athletes or movie stars are the people that are looked up to. Meanwhile, Jim is like the mad scientist of small scale farming and he's killing it. People like him should be looked up to and learned from.
My father in law passed away this year so feel your pain Jim. Thank you for being awesome!! and also Pete for always being selfless.
I grow my corn against my stucco wall. They love the extra heat that is held overnight. (I am in North Eastern Alberta, Canada) Why don't you try planting some along your rock wall?
I do hope Jim is getting some bucks from these videos, he is awesome.
Please touch up on pest management. I have a modest single-person garden, but as a disabled retiree I'm feeling a bit overtaken by pests.
Nice to see jim back happy new year guys
Missed you, welcome back
I just always wonder how y'all keep squirrels from constantly digging up your stuff. Maybe where you're at is not a problem but they dig up my stuff constantly. Wish I could have open food plots like this.
I love your channel because I have learned so much!!!! My favorite ones are the ones that are about Jim!
My condolences on the passing of Jim’s mom😢
I had the same experience this year with sweet potatoes. My soil was too rich, just my opinion.
Noticed eggshell in the compost. You can give shells back to chickens as a calcium supplement
Happy New Year to you all.
