The crisp air is beginning to settle in and that means only one thing….It is BRASSICA season baby! My favorite times of year are without doubt early fall, if you can call it fall in San Diego, and early spring. You get to eat all the sweet delicious greens that otherwise suffer through summer and just taste bitter!

Next year I’ll know in my area, if I can get my crops through a couple nights in the lower 30s or upper 20s I might be able to grow into December.
bro,what'up! super~ amazing view, see you on my side, ;))
You are a great inspiration for all of us “new” gardeners. Going on my 3rd year at my new house and I’m figuring out what does best and what I love to eat!
Planted an elephant garlic and onion bed in mid October. Then realized I’d love to try store bought garlic too so got 3 from the store and will be planting tomorrow.
I had no idea how asparagus grew. Thanks for sharing
Sweet potato leaves have a very mild flavor and will do great in the heat! I love them for salads and greens 🥔 🥬
Love the variety in your garden. Amazing! all those guavas in one small tree. Guavas are my favorite fruit but haven’t been successful growing one. It’s difficult in Florida in the summer with daily rains for almost 4 months and extreme heat . Avocados, mangoes, and citrus do well.
It might sound boring but you could show a cleanup video of when you take something out and put something back in its place and how that goes
Can you do some cooking tutorials? You seem to know a lot of good vegetarian meals and I think people would really love to see what you're cooking up with what you grow. Thanks!
Thanks for showing the roses at the end! I’ve got my heart set on a particular David Austin rose for next year. I’ve never been a big rose fan in the past but that might be about to change! Lol 🌹
I thoroughly enjoyed the trees in containers part of the yard. You should feature these plants more often!
Looks awesome!
thanks for sharing Jacques!! would love to see more detailed videos on the fruits you grow in containers, if you are looking for ideas! the guavas, lime, and blueberries all interest me as I don't live in a permanent residence!
Thanks for sharing!
Loved the tour — How many plants/trees do y'all think Jacques actually has in all of his gardens? 😊
So helpful Jacques! You give me hope that I will be able to grow vegetables much better this fall and winter. Your garden is amazing and you are a great teacher.
I have both the lemon and strawberry guavas. The lemon guava tastes better.
It also produces a lot more for me. I have to actually thin out the fruits or the branches will break.
Your garden is spectacular! I have issues with raccoons so I'm wary of planting in ground. Do you have that issue? If so how do you deal with that?
I really enjoy your channel. I am redoing my entire backyard garden here in Tejas. I am switching to container gardening and raised beds. My daughter has MS and changing the garden will allow her to be an active participant in her wheelchair so I would enjoy seeing more about your containers and raised beds.
I would love to see what went into the espalier of that apple. Just more about the fruit trees in general, blueberries, guavas, etc. I've been looking for some dwarf fruit tree ideas, ideally in containers, as my patio area couldn't accommodate any inground trees and I also don't want things that will shade out the currently productive portions of my yard.
I thought I was the only one who never has a pea indoors 😂 I keep thinking if I grow more than I'll have enough to save, hasn't worked yet 🤷♀️.
BT is a garden saver for me not only can I have brassicas but it also saves my squash plants from the vine borers.
Thanks Jacques your garden is amazing! 🍁🍂🍁🦃💚🙃
All your rose tips and tricks! Including growing apples in 9 and 10.
Also, beautiful garden!
Garden looks great! We just had our first frost last night, so snow is coming (NE WA z6)
I absolutely loved the strawflowers this year! I planted them out in early May. They're still blooming! I harvested flowers a few times a week all summer for drying, and they just kept blooming. Will definitely grow every year! 😊
I would love to see your ideas and recipes on how you use all of this wonderful food you’re growing. It would also give more people a reason to try and grow different varieties. I started hoping you would give other little hints as to how you would cook up other veggies after you mentioned how you cook up the broccoli rabe. Rock with Jacques in the kitchen!
I'd be interested in seeing a plan or layout of your garden. It's hard to get a sense of how big it is and where all these different sections are from a ground-level video.

But aren’t monarch butterflies going extinct?? Maybe have a couple stray cabbage for them 🌱
I'm doing the same experiment in my leaf green stalk with garlic. It was sprouting (left in the fridge) and I thought why not? Hope it works for us.
Thanks Jacque! I'm working on transitioning my backyard to more of an edible garden and you've given me so many good ideas. I won't have nearly as much as you, but something to aspire to.
How far do you cut the kale? I have a couple of two year old dino kale that are 3 ft high. I'm lk scared to cut them, but they are in a wind-prone area and concerned next time a storm will knock em down.
Also, did you start the cabbage from seed or transant eedlings in the greenstalk?
Just a heads up, anytime you were walking there was a clanking noise on the recording. I think it's your hat toggle.
Does diatomaceous work on rolly pollies?
Wait, wait..did you plant the Fuerte avocado near citrus, how old is it, any fruit, yet? Did you plant the Moringa from seed?
I love these garden tours…I learn a lot. Thanks Jacques!
Every morning I go into my garden and pick all the peas and the kids and I snack on them before they go to school. They never make it into the kitchen.
How do you keep your leafy green intact from bugs or pests?
I'm not a plant, but putting up that many leaves seems counter productive.
