God bless you bro! Love you Tuck! ❤❤❤
I'm just a bird, i know a lot of other birds feel the same way and more will feel the same way, they don't even have gardens because they are just birds. soo, if obi wan kenobi was here right now though he would say you must do what you feel is right of course, hang in there, if you want to join the flock just start flapping your arms and you can join us and fly in formation with us and we can fly away together into the sunset
Even though I don’t have much of a harvest in my little garden, I receive so much more in peace of mind by just puttering out there every day. Gardens are beautiful therapy!
Thanks for reminding me that it's not always about me. Pollinators have had a good harvest.
Dude.. this is the third year in a row that deer have conquered me. I’m not sure I’m ready to invest $500 in fencing. 🙁
❤❤❤❤
Thank you, James. It's almost as if you read my mind. I was so ready to quit. This inspires me.
I have to clear our land before I can build our dream, and it's overwhelming. Most days I don't want to even go outside and work on that dream.
Its been over 110 here non stop. I live in the city and my water bill is getting way to fucking high.
Not quitting but not going to grow much during this time of year in arizona because it is to expensive.
Grew everything close and used companion plants which really helps.
James makes an excellent point about trying to focus on the garden successes. I recommend a gardening journal to document your planting, fertilizing, propagations, etc. If you record everything you're doing, you're more apt to be able to pinpoint any problems and develop better techniques and strategies.
Take care of Tuck! ❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lóved the video.Go Tuckir!!
don't know about NJ but its been perfect growing weather here in central NY, regular rain, plenty of sun and not too hot
Great video!
We love a gaslighting queen 🥰
Love little Tuck! Great motivation!
❤❤❤❤❤❤ Much love for Tuck! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I learn something every year and my garden gets better
I watched Tasha Tudor's documentary on her lifestyle abundant in gardening. She said gardening is tiring and exhausting. That's why winter was her favourite season, because she'd be forced to stay indoor and enjoy nature's dormancy. Maybe you need your winter too!
Idea never entered my head, life is more than a few plants in the garden, they're nice to have but in the end my family is more important. Thanks James, Tuck. 👍👍
I lost over 200kg worth of plums from the rains this year. I'm already focused on next year and increasing yield. Plus i still got my food forest to focus on for the fall harvest. Thanks James 🙌
My four rules to success – 1) show up. 2) work hard. 3) don’t quit. 4) ask questions 💪 🤜 🤛
Lots of my plants did poorly this year. I was thinking of giving up today but I'll keep trying.
❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for this! You are a true gem James 💎
❤ That little hot dog Tuck! I could not do as much this year with my new knee but I still plug away! The weeds were taking over so, I just worked on the garden beds as the pain allowed! Compromise is best! Since my horse Dundee is gone, carrots are not doing well, my heart just isn't in them! ♥️🐾🐾♥️🐎
Yah I am tired of the heat and a new heat advisory beginning in two days, even though it will be the same degrees it is today – 108. LOL. I want to be done gardening in the heat and have to remind myself how much enjoyment I will be having in a few weeks. I may be tired of the heat but my watermelons, squash, and sungold tomatoes are loving it and I was just able to share my harvest with a friend this evening and let them self-pick some goodies. Win-Win! I've never been successful with watermelons and we just picked a 20 lb crimson sweet today.
❤❤❤❤❤Tuck!
Do you do in person consult?
Thank you! this is so inspiring! 🌱💚
Keep ON Smiling & Keeping ON. 🌱
❤❤❤❤ Tuck!
This pep talk was much needed. Thanks James:)
