Welcome to my garden! In today’s Gardening For Beginners Series video we are discussing LIGHT LEVELS. Have you every looked at a plant tag and became so confused as to how much sun the plant actually needed? What is the difference between Part Sun and Part Shade?! What on earth is filtered sun anyway?! Today we discuss all of that and more! ☀️ Enjoy!

The ideia of setting an alarm and taking hourly photos of your beds is such an amazing ideia! Thank you ❤
Great info to review when we're looking at our beds. We get a LOT of sun in the summer and a LOT less in spring and fall. It's always a challenge to get the plants right here. A lot of the flowers I plant are natives and do well with the variable light. Cheers Janie!
Thanks so much Rich! I appreciate you stopping by! Have a great day my friend!
Thank you so much! I used to think "isn't part sun the same as part shade?" ⛅ But you cleared that up perfectly for me! Such useful information. It would be great if you had a cute little PDF with each of these definitions but I think I can manage to create one for myself. 😄
Hi Brittany! Thanks for watching! A PDF is a great idea! Thank you! 💗🌸☀️
Great video !!! Great idea with doing the hourly check 🌞. Have a wonderful day 🌸🌼🌻
Thanks Pamela! Hope the snow is starting to melt for you guys!
Thank you for explaining this!! I appreciate you going into the details of this, mostly confusing, subject. I needed the information you very clearly provided,
so I can make the best decisions for the plants in my garden. I really enjoyed your video! THANK YOU!
I’m so happy you found it helpful Liz!!

Thank you so much for this series. Leaning so much.. you are another angle in my life.
Thank you for explaining this so well
I’m so glad it helped!

Totally helpful! Thank you!
Thanks so much Lindi! I'm so glad and appreciate the comment!
You got me at gardening is an art =)
Hahaha wonderful Velia! When I say that I always get worried that someone will stop me and argue but it IS!! LOL Happy gardening my friend! 💗
Thank you! Totally answered my questions on foxglove’s. My year planting them this year.
Hi Lanette! Yay I am excited for you! They are GORGEOUS! 💗
Great info. Thanks.
Thank you so much Gloria! I appreciate the sweet comment!
Great share👌👌
Thank you very much!
Great information. Zones are also important. What takes full sun near the coast, may not be able to survive inland. Enjoy your videos.
Hi Margaret! Absolutely! I feel like I even have some micro-climates even in my own yard! I appreciate the comment! Have a wonderful day!
Tank you my friend by beautiful video
Thanks Yesid! Thank is very sweet!
Very helpful. Thank you
Glad you found it useful Rebecca!
Thank you for the explanations and make the information "real" by sharing examples from your own garden.
Thanks April! That is very nice to say! Have a wonderful day! 💕🌸
Great info. Love the idea of taking photos each hour to see how much light an area will get.
Thanks Karen! You should definitely do it - it was eye opening for me to realize that a bed that I thought was full shade actually could be part to full sun! Have a wonderful day!
I really enjoyed learning about the different types of light needed for gardens! Great video!!!
Yay thank you!
Great information and super helpful. I was putting the info into my phone notes. I also liked the idea of taking pictures throughout the day of different garden areas. That’s really helpful. Thanks!
That is wonderful Sherri! You are so sweet!
Very useful for me.... keep it up
Thank you so much!
Great video, Janey. You explained that prefectly. Your garden looks beautiful and look at how the daffodils have grown! This weather is crazy! Although I love the sun, we really need the rain. Fingers crossed that more rain is coming.
oh thank you so much Lu! I can't believe how warm and dry it has been this winter. It is just crazy! Have a wonderful day my friend! 💕
I'm happy to discover your channel, and it's nice to see California zone 9b gardening videos 😃
Hi Patricia! Thank you so much for watching and commenting! Yay for 9b! 💕
Oh my goodness I am so jealous of your warm weather! It got up to 40 degrees here yesterday and that felt like a heat wave LOL 😂
🤣someone else was just talking about a 30 degree heat wave! I can’t even imagine! 🥶 spring will come soon!!! 💕😘
I'm so glad you're going to do a video on fertilizer! I myself am an inconsistent fertilizer. I never know when, how often and with what should I fertilize. Plus is feeding another name for it? Because of this my plants have always struggled. 🌞 I have an east facing full shade yard. The only spots for sun is my easement and a south facing 6x6 area in a spot next to my garage. Thanks for the video, looking forward to the next!
Yay thanks Lolly! Feeding is another name for fertilizing. Just think about it as you are giving your plants food, water and shelter (fertilizer, water and good soil) that always helped me! Full shade is tough but there are some really beautiful things you can do in full shade! Have a wonderful day my friend!
You did a great job explaining light levels! I wish I had videos like this when I first started gardening! Haha!
Thanks Candace! I feel the same way! Would have saved me a ton of time on google! 😂😘
Plant tags are rough, but the internet is the worst in my experience lol. Too much contradictory information. Great video and SIMPLE information Janey.
Cheers

Oh I feel you! When trying to figure out something, I have shown my husband (Jason) 2 articles that stated the exact opposite and were listed right next to each other! Have a wonderful day you guys! Let us know how the new cold frame project is coming along!
@@DigPlantWaterRepeat lol exactly!! Everyone has an opinion but everyone's situation is different!! Btw the Fairy Garden video was just great Janey. They know more about plants than I do lol, what a great way to get kids involved ☺🧚🧚♀️
Cold frame comes out Thursday:)
Cheers

Great information as always! I often have to research new plants to see what STATE they thrive in because our summers are so harsh here in Georgia that if I'm planting something that will technically grow in our growing zone if they prefer milder weather areas I find they do better with afternoon shade here. Thanks for sharing! I hope you have a wonderful week! (I'm looking forward to the fairy gardens! My daughter and I enjoy doing the same!)
Thanks so much! I can only imagine your summers in Georgia, must be HOT! Have a great week my friend!
Thanks for the idea of taking a picture every hour. My neighbor just had to have a huge tree removed because of damage from the winter storm a year ago. He tried to let it recover but it was starting to drop limbs on his house and in my pool. We were both sad to see it go. Now my whole yards light is going to be different. I think taking pictures all day will help me determine what the new light will be. And you are correct gardening is an art.
Oooh Tammy that is sad but also kind of exciting! Imagine all the new plants you can try! Thanks for the comment and have a wonderful day my friend! 💕
Thank you! This is really helpful.
Hi Reema!! I’m so glad! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💗
@@DigPlantWaterRepeat my pleasure. I was recommend to you by Power to the Flower. I’m always looking for gardening advice in our zone :) When you plant daffodils do you leave them in ground/containers to naturalize? I have about 100 bulbs planted in a 20 foot by 3 foot deep concrete bed and would love to let them be. My second question is about proven winners double up pink begonias which I have overwintered in a container and trying to bring back. Have you had any experience with begonias?
@@rsqadry oh that is very sweet of Cara! Yes I leave my daffodils in the ground. Just make sure you let the leaves brown before cutting them off so the bulbs have enough energy for next year! As for the PW begonias, I overwintered mine in my greenhouse just to be safe since they are a zone 10. What zone are you in?
@@DigPlantWaterRepeat thank you for the info! Yes, Cara is so sweet and helpful. She’s really encouraged me to share more about my own garden on my IG (in not on social media much ;) I’m in zone 9b/10a, depending on which website I use to look up my zone. I have 4 double ups in containers and left them on my fairly protected patio. They seem to be coming back but one developed white film/powder on the leaves. It was in deep shade. I cut off the affected leaves and put it in more sun. Would love your thoughts.
P.S. I’m in Sunnyvale, CA
Good👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you my friend!
Im still trying to figure out “bright shade” but I think it might be filtered sun or part shade. Thank you for explaining these concepts, I’m new to gardening ever since I bought a home- killed many things, but now I have about 75 plants to care for and I have to be super strategic about how I place them.
New subscribers here my dear
Thank you so much! I appreciate that! 💕🌸
