Beautiful, but brrrrr! ❄️
And the bits of plastic that you neglected to remove from the drilled holes go into your compost and into your tomatoes and you are eating polyvinylchloride. NEVER put anything composed of plastic in your compost. Just a dumb waste of PVC pipe.
@@toddr4532 it’s a fun little thing to do for sure! I can hundred percent guarantee that the vegetables we produce in our garden are infinitely more healthy than anything we could grab off the shelf at any store. Thanks for the comment!
Best of luck with the storm!
Thanks neighbor, you as well!
Cold lacto-fermented composting (the improved Water Witte method) is a better method. It does not have the 2 adverse effects of hot composting (which is not practiced by nature): 1. The resulting compost is less than half the weight of the original pile. It's a sorry loss of carbon due to the decomposition activity of aerobic microorganisms, which unfortunately emits a lot of CO2, a greenhouse gas. So it's a polluting method. Besides the loss of carbon is a waste for the fertility of our soil. 2. The resulting compost contains few microorganisms because of the high temperature, so is of little use to soil fertility. Cold lacto-fermented composting uses anaerobic microorganisms and the result is compost with virtually no carbon loss (so it's non-polluting) and, since it's made cold, it contains an enormous diversity of microorganisms useful for soil fertility. Everybody should practice the cold lacto-fermented composting because it does not require to turn the pile, it is less work. However, it takes a little bit more time to obtain a well decomposed compost ready to put in the garden but it is worth it.
@@denisdufresne5338 I love this friend! I do two silos (4 foot high, by 3 feet across )of leaf mold every year on this property, and the result is wonderfully textured, and full of life planting medium. Thanks for this fascinating comment. I’m definitely going to be leaning more into cold composting for sure!
How do you cook them?
@@jaxonsweat6352 slice pretty thin, dry-cooked them to get rid of some of the moisture in an iron skillet, then add butter, the last five minutes. A little sea salt and pepper, perfection!
@8oclocktomatotalk thanks
@ you’re welcome, and thanks for the comment :-)
🥁
What kind of cookies are your favorite? And have you ever made cookies with anything from your garden?
@@halliewertz466 we have not yet made cookies from garden ingredients, though that’s a great idea! And I would say my favorite cookies are my wife’s family recipe of molasses cookies🙂
Love the socks 🧦 😊
@@MikkiandAngel thank you! And thanks for the comment :-)
😂 I love your energy ❤ Happy holidays to you and your family 🎆 I'm doing nothing too 😊
@@TheMalcolms7 ha ha! Thank you friend! Happy and peaceful holidays to you and your family :-)
Hope you had a good one buddy!
I did! Hope you did as well. :-)
When you do this it would be a really good idea to make it in metal as the microplastics produced with plastics are destroying the very environment we love
1 out of 1 heck yeah. one to the millions❤
Thanks for the share!
You're welcome!
Watch out, youve got chipmunks in your garden, i could hear them clearly
@@boratsagdiyev5679 dang it, I knew it!
Homie started the video spitting bars 🔥🔥 dude never misses
I planted blueberry plants 2 years ago in containers. I used the right dirt and put an acid fertizer in them. They died on me second year. I watered them well. It was a weird growing season for my area.
Hi Melissa! I’m sorry to hear about your Blueberries. They have been so tricky for me, this is very possibly my last try at them, at least for the near future, if these don’t establish themselves. I lost over a dozen of them in the last couple of years. I’m almost to the point where I’m not focusing so much on the perfect soil. I’ve talked to people around town who have these huge ones that they pay hardly any attention to!
Aight who let the man cook 🔥😫
It took me way too long to realize that wasn't a real bird😂
@@rebekahrodrigue9452 ha ha😀 awesome!!
This is the video I didn’t know I needed
Nice! thanks!
I love this video! Keep it up man!! Much love
@@Kabzz. i appreciate that, thanks!!🙏
Your videos are so entertaining and joyful make everyone watching feel happt😊😊❤❤
@@CaptainDam1 thank you so much friend!!
Isn't that counter-productive though? Yeah, I know it's good for air to circulate, but you want that to cook as soon as possible. Trapping that heat under there is probably good.
@@MasterKenfucius you’re right :-) it is counterproductive, but I love the weird science behind gardening, that’s part of what keeps me motivated. I will trade productivity for some goofy Science any day! Thanks for the comment friend.
@8oclocktomatotalk that's weird to say...
That’s awesome. I didn’t know garlic did that
Yeah, it’s awesome. Isn’t it! In California, we would plant our garlic in mid January, for a July harvest. Here in four season weather, it needs to winter over to grow, die back, and then grow again in the spring. I love it! Thanks for the comment.
How does it not freeze? Even if it's covered... Serious question that would appreciate a serious, scientific answer please.
The temperature is only altered slightly with fleece only, such as on the carrots. On the other hand, with two layers, fleece and a tarp, lettuce stays around 10 to 15° warmer under there. Carrots can handle temperatures down to around 20, lettuce around the same. But because carrot foliage is quite serrated, the dispersion of cold air is effective in keeping the frost off, whereas the lettuce, being broad and flat ,with this Romain variety, will take a harder hit under the same temperatures. Thanks for the question!
Live in snowbelt in NEohio....4"lake effect snow is a wonderful thang....herbs still great.
Tough winters up there, great to hear about the herbs!
Doing good gramps, all the best
Appreciate that good sir!
The snow is so awesome ❤❤
@@CaptainDam1 it is ! Thanks for the comment. :-)
Happy thansgiving kev
Thanks Jarrett! You as well!
So many!! I’d run away
@@vordopollik1877 ha ha! The creepy thing about them is they’re always in clusters like that!
Can't see what you're trying to show ppl when you're not even pointing the camera at the right spot
@@vampire20518 right! Definitely gotta work on the way my shorts converted into a close-up when I load them up. Thanks for the comment.
@8oclocktomatotalk try using the back camera instead if the one facing you. Can't see anything unless you know what you're pointing at
@ I agree! I always run into this, whenever I’m trying to do it that other way. Thanks for the tip!
@@8oclocktomatotalk no problem. Good luck.
I rlly dc what anyone says I fuck with 8 o clock tomato talk hard
I love this guy 😂
King of lettuce!
Right?! I’m trying :-)
WOOHOOOO IM GLAD YOU GOT THOSE!!! GARDEN DEPARTMENT 4 EVER
For sure, Dani , I’m so excited to use them next spring!
You can replant carrot tops to get unlimited carrot greens
@@jarrettbement3716 good one Jarrett!
So is it just an indicator or is it used to keep the compost pile in a perfect temperature range? (Hot enough to speed up the breakdown process but cold enough to not kill the bacteria and fungi.)
@@Zxr-r6q actually, good question. I believe it’s both, but mainly just as an indicator, it to show me that the pile is heating up. Too hot directly in the middle can shut things down, but that’s not been a problem really, for my piles.
Boy wouldn’t that be nice if all my gardens were not taken from me I’m glad I have food
Way i was raised in louisiana people dont understand
Death of a leaf, life to the soil... Bravo.
Exactly! Thanks for the kind comment.
@8oclocktomatotalk I've always had an issue with people who choose "lawn maintenance" over natural maintenance. Shedding leaves has a purpose. Why do people rake their lawns? Why do people collect grass clippings? They are not part of our ecosystem.
@ I agree. I do collect a lot of our leaves on our property for compost/leaf mold. But I leave areas around all the trees, and of course the woods with leaf litter.
An ancient method for sure. LOL Thanks for the share!
Right?! The foot’s been around for a long time 😀 and thanks for the comment !
Thanks for the share!
@@UT33200 you bet!! thanks for the nice comment.
I didn’t know what the tomato was
Can carrots go dormant for eating next spring?
Theyre biannual but i never did it. Im zone 3
Excellent garden!! Love your enthusiasm!!!🎉😂❤😊
@@cindytrusty6598 thanks so much! I appreciate the comment!
Please don’t do this, bacteria travels with bugs and dirt, such a quick way to get sick
Hi there! I should’ve clarified in this video that we do not plant into any manure type compost for root crops such as carrots. It is well composted vegetation, or pure leaf mold from our own property. we consider small traces of this soil beneficial to our gut health-Thanks for the comment!
@@8oclocktomatotalk oh! Well that’s good
This might be the next wholesome meme
@@Love_striken let’s hope so! Thanks :-)
I think we saw the pillow with straps next to you the whole time
after you harvest sweet red peppers for the first year. Will they bear fruit the following year?
@@JoeViau yes! I am on year three with some of our peppers,Having them over-winter in the basement with a south facing window. I prune them pretty heavy, just a few leaves to catch sunlight, by mid April I’m setting them out side a few hours a day until after our frost passes.
@@8oclocktomatotalk Great. thank you so much.
@ you’re welcome 🙂
@@8oclocktomatotalk they even get woody as they get older. They look like shrubs on older pepper farms. Also kev nice dog
@ great point Jarett!, And thanks about the dogs.
Hello there, I was wondering, if I can share with you the most important thing ever in your entire life. God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. Then He was put into a tomb for 3 days, after that Abba Father raised Jesus to life.He appeared to people, and went back to heaven. We all must sincerely receive Jesus into our life to be God's child. John 1:12 says: "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." Will you today genuinely by faith, receive Jesus into your life for salvation?
