“Wooder.” Spoken like a true Jersey boy!
My beds are made of logs and clay, concrete pavers on their sides with stakes, and rocks mortared with clay.
Thank you, James. Thank you for showing me the potential. I’ve been addicted to your channel for the last 2 weeks.
I bought a house on .44 acres 6 months ago. I moved from a condo in downtown Austin to the outskirts of Austin. I’ve been trying to move for 2 years, but I was infected with covid in March 2020, and then suffered with long haul; basically in bed 18 hours a day for about 9 months going into 2021. I bought this house surrounded by nature to continue healing. But the ground has issues. Hard clay. Old filled-in swimming pool in the middle of the yard. In-ground hot tub filled with gravel. 40-year-old sidewalks all around the pool. Totally neglected by the previous owners. Insufficient fencing for the pack of deer that come through daily and live behind my property.
However, clover does grow in my ground. And I am surrounded by trees. I’m on a drainage ditch, so lots of the water and nutrients from surrounding properties drain towards me. It’s all manageable. Lots of potential.
I had a big vision when I started working on this in February. I wanted to create a medicinal herb garden based on sacred geometry. Figured it would take 2 years. After the last month of working it I started thinking, "Maybe this is going to take me more like 10 years!" However, now my vision is changing. You are helping me to see the proper steps, and that it doesn’t have to take 10 years. Your series on the 6 phases of a food forrest has inspired me. That’s the direction I am going now. The 7 layers concept is new to me. I’ll start studying.
Thank you for your amazing videos and long term commitment to growing and to keeping us informed. James, you really are a treasure. I love listening to you talk about your principles of gardening. I love the tours of your food forrest.
I also got a kick when you said in this video, "For me that sun rises in the east, and sets in the west." What a coincidence! Me too! Ha!
I love the work you are doing. You are so humble, and yet so knowledgeable. And I think you are occasionally funny in a way that a good old friend can be funny and make you laugh without realizing it. Especially when Tuck is involved. I wish you and Tuck all the best in the garden and in life.
Love seeing tuck
Ahhh dude that tip to prevent moles has just lifted a huge stress off my shoulders thank you so much! <3
I never thought about dogs liking fresh veggies. Good boy Tuck! I hope Lulu, the hyper golden retriever/ husky mix will be as good. We are both beginners. Can you give e more details on the square foot method? I’m sure different plants vary. Thanks for all the info!
Beautiful tuk tuk
I always enjoy your energy brother and your videos. Thanks for all the great content.
♥️♥️♥️luv Tuck!
Great Stuff,…….🥺✌️👍😎
Tuck is the star
thankyou!! Im happy we dont have moles in Australia..
no way jersey is in 7a
love you Tuck!!!
Tuck is the best!!!
Good boy Tuck you are such a great garden pooch!!
I have yorkies that love to sneak peas out of my basket
Will the cabbage root, if left in the ground, grow another cabbage?
Just curious.
Your Tuck reminds me of our Coco. A morkie. She goes into the garden and eats stuff all the time. My daughter just make her and her bunny and parrot their own garden bed. Safe to eat what they want off it. Tuck is super cute ❤️
I love the info, Tuck makes me happy and the dynamic intro is soooo nice! 💚🏡💚🏡
New subscriber to your channel. Love the Tips & Tricks you share.
#heartsforTuck ! When I’d sit on my back porch, overlooking the garden, while watching your videos, I’d tell my late boxer Bernard about Tuck and how he ate carrots right from the garden. I’m grateful for your free educational videos, thank you James.
❤️Tuck
I wonder who was Tuck in his past life? 😁
But I’m so confused – aren’t raw beans toxic??
Oddly enough the also rises in the east where I live too 🌺😁
Love seeing Tuck enjoy the garden! He is too cute. Thanks for sharing him and your garden with us!
Who’s a goooooood boy? Tuck eating Dragon Tongue beans is so cute. Great video with lots of great information to digest.
6:10 "where I live the sun rises in the east and sets in the west"
no shit?
Cute dog
My dog eats all my veggies too haha. I grow beans just for him
We just rebuilt one of our beds. A couple of areas had gaps to the soil. We stapled landscape fabric slong the inside to create a barrier to slow the wash of soil out the bottom.
1:50 that cabbage squeak
There are 704 comments. May I add one more. Great ideas! We have 5 raised beds, built high for us seniors. I think I need to add soil. The soil is 12 inches below the edge of the boards. What is the commercial product you used on top?
Love your channel! How about planting a raised bed near a brick wall for heat transfer in winter?
Where I live the sun rises in the east and sets in the west too. 😛 jk Love your videos.
🐾🌱
Love that fricken dog. you two crack me up — thank you 🙂
My 6 year old loves to watch your videos. He is a great gardener. He especially loves to watch your dog eat snacks from the garden!
❣️🌎🐶🌍♥️
You cover everything & love the way you school! I refer back many times & when inquiring about anything I check your channel 1st. & oh that Tuck , I need a pal like that ! 😊
I love it, "Where I live the Sun rises in the east…." Pretty sure it rises in the East for everyone. LOL. Funny, but i still love your channel and videos. I am building similar but the fruit trees will be tropical fruits. More Tuck !!!
Aww you and Tuck are such a sweet combo ❤️ so glad I found your channel, your passion for growing and the outdoors is adorable! P.s do you need an outdoors loving wife? 😀😁💕🤦🏻♀️😂
Excelente vídeo ,thaks for all the tips 👍
Hi James,
I’ve just run across your videos in the last few days. I appreciate your content, and the way you talk about Tuck is adorable. Glad you have such a good friend and companion. Even cooler that he takes part in what you do and enjoys it. 🙂
This guy really does not know what he is talking about. Treated wood is no longer toxic, we fixed it a while back. Its releases toxins about the same as untreated. Go look it up but please stay off wikipedia, nothing on there is correct. Go find legitimate sources and beware the propagandists media on all sides.
Tuck is the cutest
I’d like to know more about building beds
Tuck is adorable. My dogs name is Tucker. He is a Bernese Mountain Dog. He loves when I go out to the garden. He waits for me to throw him out some green beans.
My mum has sadly just lost her dog just like Tuck at 13 years old – seeing Tuck just reminded me of her dog when he was younger 🥺
Love you Tuk!! always love to see you in the garden with Daddy! Such a good companion! 💕🤗🐶🍆🍅🥦
