Your gardening techniques are incredible Sir 🙏
❤
compost is all you need.
Thank you for also showing the cost, I always wondered about how people pick up that stuff in their trucks. Hi Squeak!🐈⬛
Looking Good! 👍 So the groundhog is a fencehog.🦫
I always love to watch your garden grow. Were I live potatoes don't go in until the last week of April and veggies don't go in until the last week of May. I can't wait to see all yours start to grow. Thanks for sharing.
Squeak is a professional fringe remover. Beautiful rich compost and a great workout as a bonus. The daffodils and visitors a reminder of Spring. Deer doing the limbo was a bonus.
I'm curious, why both vermiculite and perlite?
Miss Squeak is so cute! 😃
The beds look nice. Thanks for sharing how you make your planting soil.👍
Thank you for your sharing, it sounds like you have multiple trail camera with different views. May I ask if you using the solar or battery trail camera? I used the battery (8 AA) but it seems to drain out very quickly.
Can't wait to see the transplanting! I was able to overwinter my Banana Peppers and strawberries and I've been harvesting berries for the past month. I'm leaving my peppers on until they turn red. It's the earliest I've ever had peppers and strawberries and I've been gardening since 2005 in containers. My tomatoes have flowers now too. Zone 8 TX. 😃👍
Exciting. We are getting 2 cu yards delivered next weekend. This weekend, we clean the beds, set up new ones, and get everything overall ready for the growing season
Thx for letting us stop by the garden
Squeak fighting with a rug 😂😂 she is so precious!
Сделайте пожалуйста русские субтитры. Очень интересно о чём вы рассказываете
So awesome!
Here in East Coast Canada… we still have a few feet of snow (April 8, 2023). I can’t wait to start my garden soon. June 10th approximately is my last frost date. Like seeing other parts of the world of how other people grow or prepare their gardens. Great advice & Great job.
Looks amazing as always.
Everything looks great!! Can you tell me how tall your garden fence is? I seem to be having deer pressure this year.
