Thank you for sharing. I mostly use the cut and come again method because in that way I can harvest the exact amount I need π
What was the first green you harvested, the one you cut at the roots? It looks so yummy!
Great advice, thanks!
Wow! I learned a lot from this video. I had no idea that technique one was even an option in the way that you did it. I like cut and come again. Give me all the leafy greens!
Beautiful plants, thanks for nice information.π
Your videos are superb and you are a gardening aficionado par excellence! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. God bless you!
Is there a specific product you use to keep bugs out of your gorgeous plants?
