That was a really wonderful tour, and i've seen many. Well done and best wishes for your restructuring work. I also have no winter since emigrating from UK.
Susan Hills Yeah. Temps dropped this week. Getting around 10 to 13 highs here in Lincolnshire. But back up to low to mid 20s by end of next week. But like I said, this is spring temps. We should be getting much higher mid Summer.
I just love your videos. You've inspired me to start a small container garden on our back deck up here in New Hampshire, USA. To keep costs down, using rain gutters to grow leaf lettuce, an assortment of lid missing Tupperware, buckets, and trash cans to grow tomatoes, peppers, bush beans, mini eggplant, potatoes, and french carrots. It's coming along so well that my hubby is talking about getting us a Birdies raised bed for next year! YES!!!
Hello Mark. I live in Michigan and your gardening tips have help me with my garden. I know it’s not the same climate, but most of your tips are the best. You are my main gardening channel. Hope to see lots of garden updates and tips this year. Stay Safe.
Hey Luke, I live 300km north of Mark, in Queensland Australia. Used to work with a bloke from Michigan, top bloke. Used to tell me about Michigan, beautiful place, got to go and have a look one day. Peace 👍
Mitchell Schreiter I love all of the first time gardens. Mark inspires me to go big or go home. His info is good, you just have to adapt it to the season. Hot or cold. 🤣
Here I sit behind my monitor at midnight with some microwave sausage patties. Watching this guy with all his plants really makes me want to feed myself better.
If you want to grow extra time. I recomend schedules. Time managment on the farm is critical. As a market gardener i schedule things pretty close so i can have time off now and then. Lol
Hey Mark we live in Florida so we have the same climate , but opposite times of the year we now are getting into summer and this is the first year we are planting a garden thank you for the tips !!!! Karl and Lori B. !!!!
New gardener in central Florida. I'm taking notes on what will grow next season 😊 I'm hopeful for the plants I'm growing currently, started them a few months late. I didn't know, but I do now. I hope your plants do well.
Hi to both of you 👋 I’m in treasure coast myself. make sure to try sweet potatoes, Seminole Pumpkin, Seminole tomatoes and Malabar spinach. Here in Fl, they do great!
I’m only five minutes into the video and I’m already impressed by the number of volunteer plants: lettuce, tomatoes, mustard, etc, it’s almost like you don’t need to do any gardening . :)
I am growing some sweet beans and they all started to have blighted leaves like my tomato's. One web commentator said they might be short on Supfur, so I put my Blueberry's elemental Sulfur down and the new growth is all clear of blight. Perhaps hay/mulch gardens can be low on Sulfur. Put some under my potted capsicum and bullocks heart tomato as their leaves were blighting too. And the new leaves there are solid green now too!
G'day ... Here on the other side of the world it's about the same weather right now ... Washington State coast ... Summer might get up to a balmy 80°f ... But not for long ... Save the punky wood to add fill to the new beds ... All mine are in pots as I don't have a yard ... Just a gravel parking lot ... Onion ... Garlic ... Mushrooms ... Chives ... Mint ... Corn ... Crook neck squash ... Potato ... Tomato ... Sweet peppers ... Strawberry ... Raspberries ...
James Witte I have hand pollinated before. When the bees were stressed out, they were not doing their job. I wasn’t getting anything so I had the bright idea to hand pollinate. The bees are looking good this year though.
I want to say a big thank you for your videos. I used to garden a lot as a child but somehow forgot along the way of growing up that it was a passion of mine. This pandemic brought me back to the soil, and now caring for my little garden has become the best part of my day. Your videos have been a major help to me in re-training my green thumb, and they've also doubled as a nice distraction when things have gotten too much in the world. Thank you so much! :)
I started my urban vege garden a year ago and learned so much. I am based in South Africa so our seasons coincide. I love your videos. They are not only instructive, but you always make me laugh :)
Love your channel & ‘fair dinkum’ which I have to look up every time for meaning! I’m in Northern California where we’ve had some 100 degree days F. Take care
8:25 this is a great tip for intermediate gardeners. I never want to thin or move a guy that's happy growing. But sometimes you just gotta rip them out to grow more stuff for the proper season This is especially affordable when you've been collecting seeds for some seasons. Awesome vids as always mark.
I'm not much of a gardener or anything, but my dad showed me your channel and I have to say I love it. It's like watching a video from a friend, you have a wonderful personality! Much love ❤️
Brilliant stuff. Kale is growing fabulous right now and it's even in a shaded spot. On the western side of the house I've got a bunch of Japanese radish, lettuce and carrots... All growing amazingly vigorously. Love the range of plants you've got going and it's a great testiment to how easy it is to grow a decent range of food plants over this time. Inspiring stuff. Keep up the videos, loving it. It's great to see my friends trying their hand at doing a little growing themselves and I have shared these videos with them to also inspire them. It seems to be working.
Amazing variety's mate, the garden is looking amazing! I have to admit you do make us jelous with the crazy stuff you can grow on the other side of the pond! Cheers from a UK gardener! 👍😀
Awesome video Mark from another Mark. That is going to get old I know but so are we hahaha 😂 ok I'll stop now. Man I wish we didn't get some cold in the winter well some times we can. Have a good night from Texas
Hello I am a first time planter of vegetables. I enjoy your videos and do try some of your suggestions. Thank you very much. Marcia from the Island of Trinidad and Tobago.
What a lot of work you are doing Mark. It's hard t o believe it will be even better than before. Thank you for all the great advice. I always look forward to your videos.
Oh wow. I'm not too far from yourself ... out in Ipswich but we drop quite a bit here. We'll definitely start getting frosty nights heading into winter and if Stanthorpe have copped a cold day, we feel it here. My poor basil almost had a heart attack a few weeks ago but I got him inside in time. 😁 Other than that, I've got the rest of the herbs ready with framed frost/wind protection setup. 👍🌿
Ha ! Youre correct about a British Summer ( Im British ) However I'm in the same climate and was feeling at a loss with the cold weather. Thank you Mark !
Mark, you’re an absolute legend. When you post a new video, we put it up on the tv and watch it as a household and always love your tips. Cheers for sharing all your knowledge and love of experiments with us all
Hiya Mark , love your channel , I am on the south coast of NSW , my neighbours have been growing and giving me chokos, and as I’m the only one of my family that likes them , several of them had started to shoot ! . I came home from work the other day and my son said that he had planted the triffids! We’ll just have to see how they go , we do get the odd frost here .. never know ! But goodness there’s 4 or 5 plants !!
I am a new backyard fruit and veggie grower - I have been watching a video or 2 of Mark's each day and all I can say is he has "the skills to pay the bills". I can't believe how much I have learned in just a few days. Thanks a lot Mark .... I am glad I found your channel.
I've been watching for at least 6 months now and Mark has given me so many ideas that I'm implementing this summer in North Carolina. He inspired me to build my own raised beds and experiment with what may be considered unorthodox veggies in the southern US. I have tripled my growing space over winter and am trying stuff I never would have had the courage or curiosity to do without this channel. Love every new vid, and I'm grateful for Mark and his epic hobby.
I have a pea recommendation. We grow a few of the traditional peas in our spring and fall but the one that we love to grow in the spring is called "Wando". It is a heat tolerant variety that we are able to grow into a bit of our summer extending our pea harvest for a bit longer. We live in central Georgia in the States and have a wicked long summer season but those Wando will grow for a good 3-6 weeks longer than the traditional peas. Love your videos, wife giggles at me each time she hears your intro. God Bless
I just stumbled on this channel, and by God this is one of the greatest channels I've ever seen. It's so informative, but also so entertaining! I've been binging on your videos all day Mark, and online window shopping on the things I NEED to DIY some of my own sustainable produce! Thanks so much Mark for breaking down these tough topics to easily consumable courses!
Good day! And thank you so much for taking the time and energy to share your valuable information. Please send more information about how to store seeds once you harvest them and how you plant them once they come out of storage. Do you soak them, refridgerate them, etc? THANKS!!!
You're growing in a similar climate as mine except I get much more rain and it is 10-15°F cooler. Thank you for the garden update and keep up the great work.
Hey mark! Just wanted to say thanks heaps mate for all the inspiration over these covid times. Since watching ya videos ive set up a decent vegtable garden for myself and am continulaly working towards my dream of setting up some acarage in cairns in the following year or so. Keep it up, your influence deffinitly inspires some of us younger generation who i feel are losing touch with our roots ( no pun intended )
Mark, I love your channel it has been an inspiration for people like me who love the garden and in some cases wasn't sure how thank you for all you do.✌🏿🕯️💞
Thanks Mark! this is great! really was a bit lost as to what to plant in subtropical winter here in réunion island. This is really helpful! wishing you a good day!
I am at Pine Mountain (Qld) and you have inspired my wife and I to create raised garden beds. We are currently organising our soil/s, mushroom compost manure and mulch. The worm farm has been commenced as well. I really enjoy your videos. Thanks for making the effort to share your knowledge and experience. Thanks so much.
Thanks Mark, I live just down the road to Toowoomba. Have put in raised beds over the last 6 months and your advice has served us well. Great content. Cheers mate
New deck looks great,mate! I just salvaged some wood from a renovation at work... I've made two raised beds and a ladder for my chicken coop so far! Building is so much fun!
Love your down to earth videoes. Love that you are local. It is so difficult to find info on Subtropical gardening and I found you. Keep up the good work.
Ay big fella, what you wanna be doing is getting a barrel cutting some holes in it and making a damn good fire mate, nothing better than a few brews and a nice fire in winter, good time to grab the missus and burn off all the shit. Keep up the good work from you south mates here in Illawarra.
I am glad that I discover your channel , you inspire me to turn my little balcony to vegetable garden, now I am growing tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, fresh onions and enjoy eating them everyday. greetings from istanbul - turkey.
You have inspired me to start a small container garden in my backyard. I have large oak trees so its been difficult to find a place that gets sun at least 6 hrs a day. Fortunate or unfortunate my next door neighbor cut down a strip of woods between us and now i have a sun spot to grow veggies. I have 16 pots with 10 now growing beans sweet potatoes and russets potatoes plus beets and spinach. I have peppers and tomatoes yet to plant. Thank you so much for showing the possibilities.
We are warmer during winter here in the Philippines but our main problem is rain. We have just entered our rainy season and have planted accordingly. But winter, finding crops that don't require much water can be tricky.
Thanks for the tour Mark. Our temperature range at the moment in Darwin is around 19 to 32. Too warm for a lot plants, have given up on normal coriander, but the sawtooth variety is doing ok. Other plants are thriving - sweet potato, rock melon, water melon, zucchini, snake beans... mostly using raised beds because our soil is so poor. Lock down has given me the time to go hard in the garden... enjoying your channel!
It was great to finally get a good look at your Gord tunnel been wanting to steal that idea since you had the inderteminates growing. Great video! Keep it up!

Joe McCall Hahaha True summarization 🤣
That was a really wonderful tour, and i've seen many. Well done and best wishes for your restructuring work. I also have no winter since emigrating from UK.
Right!?
you see he put his bits of his mother in law in the beds
Lol
4:16 “probably pick that up later”
“... no I probably won’t” lmfaoo this man is too real
Read this before it got there. 🤣
Perfect. Classic move
The best sarcasm
I had to laugh. When you gave the temperature range for your Winter I thought that's just the same as our Summers. Yes! I am in the UK 😄
th-cam.com/video/9UPq0FanXPg/w-d-xo.html
Well. More like our mid to late Spring weather. Typically in the midlands where I live. Summer will be 20s and even get up to high 30s
@@sshep86 Im in Mid Wales and for the last 2 weeks its been 8C every morning! Despite the very hot days.
Susan Hills Yeah. Temps dropped this week. Getting around 10 to 13 highs here in Lincolnshire. But back up to low to mid 20s by end of next week. But like I said, this is spring temps. We should be getting much higher mid Summer.
Can I grow lettuce in 34 temperature?
Your channel is awesome, without people like you, the world would be a horrible place
The world is a horrible place. Nice garden though.
We are all like that in Queensland 😋

Olá bom dia adoro seus vídeo parabéns bjs
Your channel is always relaxing and informative
Wait, I need a video of your seed organizer!! Or more time over it! I love how organized it is even though you only showed 2 seconds of it!
You so cute

I’m in New Hampshire too! Yay!
Containers are really amazing. My family had low expectations then a few dozen 10oz tomatoes later they're all in
Beautiful! It’s work but I’m on a planting craze in Northern California. 🤷♀️♥️
Mate!
The deck looks fantastic!
WellMet I know! I’m jealous.
Yes it does! Very nice. Everything! ♥️
Indeed Mate! 👍🏾
Ok, he’s got a filing system for his seeds!! I love that. It appeals to my gardening side and my organisation side.
I get so excited when You upload. I like your humor and i like the way you film. Thank You For giving me so many useful tips!

Here I sit behind my monitor at midnight with some microwave sausage patties. Watching this guy with all his plants really makes me want to feed myself better.
Fantastic Mark!
Also fantastic, person managing Kevin's account 😃
When you figure out a way to grow some extra time, please let me know.
there is one way, you have to quit your job
If you want to grow extra time. I recomend schedules. Time managment on the farm is critical. As a market gardener i schedule things pretty close so i can have time off now and then. Lol
Thyme grows like weeds here
MrBucky338 🤣
MrBucky338 😂🤣😅
Was overwhelmed with my seeds that i was saving, until I just saw your filing system! Thanks :)
"Unless you give it a go, you just won't know"
Right on Mark, Great video as always!
Mark, you definitely inspire me to get out into my garden everyday. I really appreciate your knowledge and tips. Cheers from the USA.
Same here...Cheers from Poland :)

Turn the parking space into a gAWDen.
you know you need a patch of corn to get proper pollination?
@@kingjames4886 nope ... A trio of 24 inch pots with 5 in each ... Makes for easy hand pollinating ... I hand pollinate tomatoes and squash too ...

Such a happy good news channel. A great distraction from an otherwise worrying stressful scary planet. Thank you! Could watch for hours.

Hello I am a first time planter of vegetables. I enjoy your videos and do try some of your suggestions. Thank you very much. Marcia from the Island of Trinidad and Tobago.

Wow, you've been very busy. Thank you for the tour. 💐🌹
Oh wow. I'm not too far from yourself ... out in Ipswich but we drop quite a bit here.

Ha ! Youre correct about a British Summer ( Im British )
However I'm in the same climate and was feeling at a loss with the cold weather.
Thank you Mark !
You don't live far from me at all so I love the "custom" growing advice! Thanks!
Mark, I love your passion and energy! Great video as always. Keep them coming.

Like the clappers. I haven’t heard that one for years
Thank you for the nice video. Reminds me of mid to late spring in Germany.
Being a local. Love this sort of content.
Filling the bottom with wood scraps was a game changer. I have “tons” of forest scraps and I was able to solve two problems at the same time.
Amazing walk about.
Your videos are always really helpful. I cant wait for the next.

You must have read our minds. My wife and I were just asking exactly that question.
We got a raw deal, I'm only a couple hours from Bris and we frost regularly. Already had 3 :( coldest we've recorded from memory was -8
I live in Toowoomba and since were already getting 3°C mornings, I imagine winter is going to get frost. 🥶
Well we have had a few frosts but Stanthorpe is known for that. Not that far from Brisbane either.
-8!!!! That is too cold for Qld! Ripped off!
Grow apples
When I lived in the Peace River Country of British Columbia Canada your normal winter day was a normal summer day for me...

I was just about to ask where in QLD you are. I'm in central Gold Coast so it's good to have a channel to watch that is local and not in the US lol
I'm so jealous of the zone you're growing in!
Think we need to move to Australia with temperatures like that. We had some hail yesterday in North Wales 🏴 somehow. 😂
You inspire seniors to enjoy gardening again
Thank you for this video! It’s like you’ve read my mind. New to gardening and wondering what I can plant on the Sunshine Coast!
Thanks for the tour Mark. Our temperature range at the moment in Darwin is around 19 to 32. Too warm for a lot plants, have given up on normal coriander, but the sawtooth variety is doing ok. Other plants are thriving - sweet potato, rock melon, water melon, zucchini, snake beans... mostly using raised beds because our soil is so poor. Lock down has given me the time to go hard in the garden... enjoying your channel!
It was great to finally get a good look at your Gord tunnel been wanting to steal that idea since you had the inderteminates growing. Great video! Keep it up!
