We are coming to work our property in Nanawale in two weeks. Can you recommend a land clearing service? I thought you might have in a past video just can't remember which video. Much Mahalo
Best content I've seen in ages!
Great stuff! Loofah is another one that grows well for us here. 🤙
Also sacha inchi (spelling) and cassabanana are good vines here. Cant wait for that bamboo construction vid🤙
Nice. Can't wait for the bamboo tree house.
Nice selection
Since you are growing grapes, maybe you can answer my question:
Are all grape leaves varieties edible?
Aloha!
9??? I woulda been happy with 3, and u just gave me all this wealth of knowledge 🤯🤯 can you tell me about this lilikoi butter? Here in Puerto Rico the fruit is called Parcha 🙂
Thanks for this amazing sharing ☺️😊
I hope my gardener friends will visit and join me. Your new friend
I live in south west Florida and grow a lot of passion fruit. How do you keep the fruit rats away? It’s a constant battle down here, especially with all the bananas I have growing. Tho they tend to like the really like the main flower for some reason.
you teach some cool things
I have a question, not sure if you can answer….can most of what you talk about grow in a year?
I like thorned vines on top of my fence..
Hey there! 🙌🏼 I really love your videos and your blog! I want to live in Hawai‘i one day and have my own little off grid farm 🤗 I wanted to ask if you could make a video about legal and illegal livestock in Hawaii? 🙏🏼 Maybe about the laws to consider and all that stuff? 🙈 That would be so helpful and great! 😇
awesome as usual, thank you
Yay a new favorite gardening channel 😍
Is this guy totally stoned or is "the sun in his eyes"? Loved the tour either way 🤟💚
I'm super stoked that you can grow ipu in East Hawaii. I was worried it was too wet. I make lamps on the mainland with gourds and they're spendy.
Really like your aloha spirit. But could you please add one about elevation and what you can go? You show all this neat stuff on your place but what elevation are you. If you go up country what happens?? We would like to know. I'm living vicariously thru your videos till someday I get to come back to live. Gotta hurry I'm already 61 haha
Great educational video! Thank you for sharing.
Not sure if you know that most of the young tops of those vines are all edible, tpassion fruit tops (a bit bitter like ampalaya/bittermelon) leaves but delicious just the same. The chayote tops are to die for, sauteed or blanched for salad (fish sauce/lime/shallot/sliced tomato dressing). Opo tops too. BTW not sure if Ipo is the Hawaiian word for Upo/Opo for Filipinos. I suggest you also try to grow JICAMA. Ilocanos (Filipinos from northern Phils that have long immigrated in Hawaii) prepare the pods/fruits by scrubbing them well and cook them well. I am jealous you get to grow all those plants while I have to make do with limited harvest in my zone 3 area in Canada.
You should try cassabanana, sacha inchi and black pepper vines
Nice! Some other tropical vines we like to grow is Sancha Inchi nut, loofa, and macuna.
Do you know David The Good by chance?
Thank you great info .

Another is Passiflora quadrangularis, big as a Papaya…
There's also bitter gourd, balsamina in Spanish, Karela in Hindi I think…
Gac fruit from Southeast Asia, a cucurbit, full of lycopen. Another cucurbit would be the Monkfruit… Got to look it out…
Caigua and Achocha… Cucamelon… Cucurbits…
A medicinal vine is Jiaogulan or Southern ginseng, Gynostema pentaphylum… He Shou Wu… Uña de gato… Ayahuasca…
All right, love Hawaii and your videos 😊
