Thank you!🙂❤️
I'M PROUD OF YOU TOO🤗😅

It would be wonderful if in the spring you plant some trees (apples, pears, berries, etc). They will not require much care and they would provide you with healthy fruit! Hugs from sunny California!
Hello!
Thank you!
Yes, I am planning this.
Greetings to California!❤️❤️❤️
Congratulations on your first vegetable garden, Vita! You and your family should be very proud. You should research companion planting (some herbs, flowers and vegetables help each other when planted together, ex., basil & tomato, others don't like each other and need to be planted farther apart) and beneficial insects (nematodes, which can be attracted by the companion planting herbs and flowers or you can buy the nematodes at the store embedded in a sponge that you bring home, soak, put in the sprayer jar that you attach to the garden hose and apply that way) for next time for even better results than you can imagine. The beneficial nematodes eat fleas and other bad bugs without using chemicals. They multiply and are good until summer gets too hot or winter gets too cold, the extremes, then they die and you reapply by either method when the temperatures get comfortable again. They help give you better crops, as well. So sad about the woman who gave up her half Ukrainian children. Glad she saw them before she passed. Bright blessings and Slav Ukraine! 💖💙💛
Dear Belinda, thank you!❤️❤️❤️
One day , you're going to look back at all this and tell your kids all this and there kids and inspire them all....
They will be soon here to help me 😘
Thank you ❤️

Thank you!🙂❤️🌻
Thank you. 🙂👍

Tu as le pouce vert mon amie (y)
Vita, you are so fortunate to have a Babooshka like Katya. Try and document as many of her stories as possible, she is a Living Treasure and, you those who doubt Ukraine. Babooshka Katya is speaking UKRAINIAN, not Ruzzian.
Hello!🙂 You are so right, she is a real treasure ❤️
And she is still the Boss in our small village street 😀
Ola tesaludo desde Colombia te felicito mui lindo ese huerto que tú ases bien sea ese sembrando mui chevere y también muy bonita tu casa
🙂 Thank you!
That was some exhaustive work you did, Vita, in your garden. Hoping for a nice harvest.
Yes, hoping for a nice harvest🙂🙃
@@ThinkUkraine 😊
Pretty good for a city slicker!!
You are a little furnace young

Thank you 🙂🙂🙂

I joined your Patreon.
Thank you!🙂♥️♥️♥️
I’m a rare guest there. Still have no time to understand how it works 🙈 But thank you for your support!♥️♥️♥️
Привет Вита! Your neighbour бабушка Катя is precious, please let her know that her stories reach all over the world - through your efforts 😊 Once again you succeeded to get results, no matter what the others advised - so fast growing plants!!! I know that Ukrainian soil is fertile, but it seems like you planted instant growing seeds 😮 And that God sent rain almost exactly when you needed it? Молодец 😊 Guess that you have been working on the vegetable garden for a while, of course the plants didn't pop up overnight like the fairytale of Jack and the beanstalk 😉 Still, it's wonderful 👍🏻 Next week you will probably be busy, schools open in UA, don't know about your university program... Godspeed, sending lots of love and kisses from Athens, Greece 🇬🇷❤️🇺🇦😘
Hello George!❤️
You know I love reading your comments 🙂❤️
Yes, this vegetable garden was made 2 weeks ago and I didn’t expect anything to grow😁🙈 but miracles happen 🙂
Greetings to Greece 🇬🇷❤️❤️❤️🫶
@@ThinkUkraine Привет милая Вита 🤩 And I love to see your response to my comments 😊 You do make miracles happen 😉 Enjoy the Sunday evening, wish you a great week! 💙💛🇬🇷❤️🇺🇦
@georgetriantafyllakos2470 🙂❤️❤️❤️
vita that's a nice vegetable garden even though that you planted it late you should be able to get something before it gets too cold, I recommend though red beets to grow the easiest second potatoes not just one type but I do purples red potatoes and the standard white potato, if you plant right now you may be able to get garlic to grow before it gets too cold but probably not in the spring if you put garlic and when you know that it's not going to be cold anymore you have gorgeous garlic same thing with Beats if you do your Beats when you know it's going to warm up Beats garlic the other thing you can do inside as long as it's warm and you get some sun is micro greens basically lettuce but different types of lettuce 30 different types of lettuce in a long 3 ft or 1 m long pot 6 in high and 6 in wide micro lettuce grows really good in that especially if you have direct sun and they only take about a month and you can start slipping out the greens and they'll grow back if you cut them with a scissor. I don't do traditional borsche. Mine is basically boiled red beets with a little sugar I usually use a cup sugar to just get a little sweetness after about an hour boiling I testable Fork to make sure that they're nice and not too soft take them take the whole pot off and pour off the liquid into a pan to cool down then I will peel off the skins and then I usually slice not completely through like six cuts and then six cuts across and then base it into dice cutter long cuts so I have nice thin slices of lovely red beets for all the good juice back then and stick it in a tupperware so can you use it later but I always have a nice gorgeous bowl of cold borsche with a nice helping sour cream oh it's so good my grandmother used to do that for me when I was a kid I loved it and I eat that all the time when I have the chance to cook it. Now I know Ukrainian traditional borsche is different it has potatoes and meat and red beets and sour cream it's a different type of borsche though.
Hello!🙂
Thank you so much for all the advice!
I think I will not plant anything because I have to come back to Kyiv soon. My University work starts. I will drive to the village only on weekends. But I have to prepare the land and soil for spring. I have to get rid off weeds and to use special chemicals for them. Otherwise next year I can’t plant anything 🙃
😘❤️❤️❤️
You have nice neighbours Vita...Your new friends stories from World War2 are fascinating! Great vlog as always! 🇮🇪🇺🇦🍻👍
Hello!😊 Thank you so much!❤️
🇮🇪❤️❤️❤️
Pryvit Vita!
Looking good.
Your neighbors are the real gold you have found in the village. The best kind of people and with amazing stories. The tragedies of Ukraine are many and deep.
Holodomor and then WWII, long Soviet occupation, etc.
But Never Give Up!
As you say.
And I will add what is now my favorite saying:
Be Brave Like Ukraine!
Your vegetable garden is sprouting and growing so well!. With fall coming you will need to build a greenhouse over the garden. Lol
Do you live fulltime at villa or back and forth from Kyiv?
Big Obijmaius from Vancouver!
Hello Erik!
Thank you!❤️
I have been living there for a month but now I have to come back to Kyiv because kid’s study and my university work will begin on 1 September. But I will drive to my village paradise on weekends🙂
Greetings to Canada ❤️
Pryvit Vita! That is so perfect to have - a Tranquility Spa out in a quiet place away from the big city. Good to hear.@@ThinkUkraine
@erikrehtlane4890 Hello Erik! So true🙂☀️😇
Pryvit Vita! Although "Tranquility Spa" is more like "Work Camp" at the moment as we can all see. LOL 🙂 As you get through the main things you need and want to do, the Tranquility Spa side becomes greater and greater. Hopefully sooner, than later!
❤❤The stories that this kind old woman tells can be used to make a movie. This grandmother has a good memory. If you are smart, record her memories and later sell them in the form of a book. I'm serious. I'm not joking.
An interesting point for me is a question
Your last video on TH-cam was 7 days ago. In the previous video, you did not say anything about the garden and planting plants. In this video, suddenly you have a garden and within 7 days the plants grow fast. The plant doesn't grow so fast within 7 days...... Is that right?..... So how did your garden grow?
a reason There is i think.... This video was recorded before the last video and even 20 days ago. But you uploaded it now to show the growth of the garden at the same time.... This means that you are a smart girl and respectively You do this carefully. Bravo....
Good luck. (That grandmother's story about Germans and that girl was interesting)❤❤
Hello!🙂
Yes, I made that small vegetable garden 2 weeks ago and I hardly expected anything to grow😀 but I wanted to show the Results😄😇
Wow, the story of the woman that gave up her half German twins is so heartbreaking. As a Parent myself just the thought of giving up my children has to be rough when you have to do it to be accepted back into your family and village. War causes terrible things to happen and dealing with the results after is even more tragic. You could do endless video's on the Babushka's and the stories about making it thru that war. Needs to be done before they're all gone.
Interesting garden set up. I have some observations, if you will take them positively. First thing I noticed is when it rained, was the roof run off into the garden. You might want to think of a gutter above the garden portion, so you don't have so much rain dumping in one section. Have it all runoff to the side, unless you collect it. The second was the black Poly that you used. What was your intent in using this? Typically, here in Maine we hill the row and then cover the hill with a poly that is perforated to allow water thru but not sunlight to burb weeds but let rainwater to soak thru. and then holes on top for the plants. And we use black to warm the soil to help with initial growing early in the season.
It's a nice start for your garden "experiment". You should put out a water trough for the cows passing by, like a good neighbor. Plus, you can "harvest" the cow dropping for the garden. Or maybe get a cow for yourself. You look like an authentic Ukrainian Cow Poke.🤠🐄
Thank you for the video.
Thank you for your comment!🙂❤️
It’s my first “garden” experience and I was criticized by all locals that I did everything wrong🙈 But as a city lady 😀 I was interested only in aesthetics 😀
Does your village handle trash? I am curious where it goes in the rural areas and how it's disposed. Garden looks great! Could hear the sound of the shovel turning the dirt, it was kind of soothing :)
You asked a very topical question. There is a problem with trash. I feel like I am again back to Germany. I have to sort trash again but not because of the strict rules because I want to have less trash. I have to drive several kilometers to throw it out
Have you become a gardener too? Girl you really are a multitasker 😅😂❤🎉 Is it far Outside Kiev
Hello! Thank you!🙂
It’s 100 km away from Kyiv🙂
Our grandfathers lol 😂❤
Tomorrow probably on five G ❤
If I want a green garden I would definitely hire you as the designer, project manger and the gardner! BTW, do the local rabbits and birds know that they are not supposed to go to your garden? Overall, I give you a grade A- 🎉
🙂 Thank you!🫶
That's why Vita HAS a white picket Fence @@ThinkUkraine
Vita, you inspire me. I've gone back and watched your earlier videos and wow, you are still here and still thriving even after everything you have been through. I'm 50 and recently bought my first house after renting for many years. So I never had a garden or did any kind of home renovation until now. Sure it can be difficult and exhausting, but extremely rewarding. You prove it's never too late to learn how to do anything. I have been to Ukraine once, years ago and I can't wait to return once you have victory, which is coming soon. Greetings and love from USA and Slava Ukraine!
Hello! Thank you!
So true! It’s so rewarding! And there are some more “profits” - it keeps you in a good shape and your self esteem is growing 🙂
Good luck with your renovations!🫶
Greetings to the USA!❤️❤️❤️
And you're going to have some weight loss like Vita.
@@rudolfkasanpawiro644 Lol well I'm already a slender guy so I don't have many pounds to lose; and Vita still looks much better than me lol but yeah, you forget to eat when you're working 6 or 8 hours around or outside the house haha!
@@ThinkUkraine Thank you Vita, we're all rooting for you and for Ukraine!
@@fuzzo73 Haha. Some people wish they could stay away from food for 6 hours.
Lol ❤
Now that I see the cows I get the walls.
Another comment
Yes, as someone else said, you are inspiring.
Indeed you are, and thank you for sharing your adventure in village house hunt, renos and more.
It is this real life stuff that adds a lot of depth into how village life is in Ukraine.
One day your many new youtube friends will come to meet you in person.
Will be nice!
Thank you Erik!🙂❤️
Knew it 😂❤
Hi, having your own vegetable is priceless. But if you sum up all your working hours (Blood sweat and tears)and material, what would be a carrots cost? Any guess? Good luck with that fence.
Hello! Thank you!
Yes, once I said the same about people planting potatoes 🙂 Many hours of work but it’s very cheap in Ukraine and it’s easier to buy it.
I will plant something exotic and expensive next year🙃😀
@@ThinkUkraineofcourse, you have to.,now that the hardest work is done you're well prepared for next year.
Sad, Babuska Katya didn't survive this war😢😢😢
Hey, good lookin´ . What veggies did you plant? And how are you btw?
Hello! Different vegetables) In a week I will have my own radish and beetroot)
@@ThinkUkraine so you took the right ones, clever🤓Spinach and dwarf beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) should work too.
I can ♥️ you now it’s late enough lol 😂❤
