    Hi! I just discovered your channel earlier this year and love it! I garden in Greenlee County, Arizona but travel to the valley often for work. I can sometimes be gone for a week or two at a time so it can be tough when I’m not home to maintain my garden. Any tips for keeping my garden alive and thriving while away for stretches of time is greatly appreciated 😅

    Oh yaaay! Im excited for the spring garden season dead ahead. Broccoli and beets and carrots are flourishing in my winter garden. Time to plant up seeds for spring! I wish there were a garden planning guide like yours for Central california, we are weird here.

    I think I missed the window to plant walla walla onions and spanish onion. Is it too late to start seeds indoors and put out in Feb?

  8. @spider8uOldManJenkins

    You are so helpful and appreciate all your knowledge sharing. These videos are especially helpful living in AZ. Most plants do not do well in our heat and it is nice to get confirmation what plants are best having watched and subscribed to your videos before.

  9. @michaela.754

    What a wealth of knowledge. Thank you for all your hard work making this video. I took so many screenshots

  10. @PetEnrichment

    Thank you so much for these monthly updates, they're invaluable! Do you have any recommendations for planning for an extra hot summer after the very warm and dry winter we've been having?

  11. @diablomom

    I wish you would do a seed starting video. My Korean mom watches your videos and thinks these videos mean she should plant the SEEDS not the starts you already have growing.

  17. @suzanneholguin6634

    Happy New Year, Angela!! I would like to get more fruit trees. Where do you recommend getting them from in the East Valley?? Thanks in advance!

  18. @sasastankovic8760

    Have 3 vertical stack-able towers that I got recently for free, planning on going to the worm farm in the morning, do I get the raised garden bed mix or something different?

  21. @AZWings

    This year has been tough in Phoenix. Hot summer led to pest problems. The fall took forever to cool down, so plants that would normally thrive were not doing as well and not setting fruit when they should. On the plus side, the warm winter is prolonging fall season and it looks like frost may not be a problem at all this year. Last year I had frosts in November.

  23. @kellieL89

    This may be weird but I could really use a gardening supplies organization idea video. Between seed starting supplies, fertilizer, lights, seeds, trowels etc I'm struggling to organize in a functional accessible way

  24. @susanphillips2859

    I still have basil growing from last year. It has flowered. Do I pull it out or let it keep growing? Is it past time to harvest?

  26. @LBC13

    Get the Planting Guide, it’s a game changer!
    Thanks Angela, your garden looks amazing 🤩 Winter has been warm in my area this year, just hope everything goes well 😅

  28. @LoriSavingWild

    i love your videos. Thank you. BUt I never know if you are saying to plant things by seed or by starter plants. Thanks.

  29. @honestly1970

    For the flowers to plant in January it look like you were transplanting. Is it too late to seed that list. And yes, I’m ordering the guide. I’ve been looking for that info since last year!

  30. @FatcatandFriends

    Yaaayyy! You literally made a video on garden planning after I requested it!! Wow, my request may not be the reason, but it sure means a lot!!
