Hollis and Nancy, TH-cam unsubscribed me to your channel!!!! Why, I don’t know. I suddenly realized I hadn’t gotten anything from you. So, I looked and I was unsubscribed!! But, I’m back now. I love you two, and enjoy your channel sooo much!! ♥️🙏🏼♥️
Welcome back. Yes, TH-cam has unsubscribed literally tens of thousands of our subscribers without their permission. In fact, folks such as yourself discovers you were unsubscribed and subscribed again only to find a couple of weeks later they did it again. One man told us he has been unsubscribed four times!!! They also deactivated many folks notification bell. We have also learned that if our subscribers don’t watch any of our videos for 3-4 weeks, they will stop showing any of our videos on your feed. Many folks thought we quit making videos entirely. It is very discouraging for us but we keep trying to keep our channel alive.
@@HollisNancysHomestead - Hollis, that’s just wrong! They are doing some very unkind things to various channels. Well, you can bet I will be checking every month to make sure I am still subscribed and that the bell is turned on. You and Nancy are among my favorites, and Bing Bing, of course! You have taught me so much and I love both of you! Hugs to Nancy and Bing Bing! ♥️🙏🏼♥️
@@HollisNancysHomestead I have also noticed I'm not seeing your videos unless I specifically go search for them! Instead, TH-cam is recommending videos that I have NO interest in :( . But thank you, for your incredibly informative videos, I appreciate you both, very much :)
Thank you Judith. It is so discouraging for us especially for me. Nancy always reminds me to not focus on the numbers and just keep doing videos and God will do the rest. Her faith is sooooo strong. 😇
Your "seed to harvest" videos are the best on TH-cam. Every time I decide that I want to grow something in my garden, I just come to your channel and find out how I'm going to be growing it!
Also, one year we planted Sweet peas and not one made it to the house because my kids would all go down to the garden and eat every last one of 'em! Great fun. I didn't care one bit.
The two of you emanate so much peace, it is truly contagious. Thank you for all your discipline, consistency, and spirit of excellence in all that you do. Thank you for demonstrating what love really looks like. Thank you for acknowledging God, and always putting Him first. This video was quite the journey to enjoy the fruit of your labors, but, as always, I can't help but be reminded of the goodness and faithfulness of our Creator. You two are such a beautiful blessing. And to top it all off, the music is superb.
Hey Hollis and Nancy! We live in zone 9B just a little more south than ya'll. I absolutely LOVE your videos. Our garden last year was a huge success. I was told by several people that it was impossible to grow in Florida without using pesticides. That is sort of true. I used a home brew of Jalapenos, garlic, and some dish soap. That was great for keeping the bugs away. I want to thank you both for all the videos that you create and I attribute my gardening success DIRECTLY to YOU! Thanks!
@@lisawilson9816 In a blender add 3-4 jalapenos, 3-4 cloves of garlic peeled.. Blend in a cup or two of water until it's very well blended. I use a Vitamix which is a pretty powerful blender and I let it run for a couple minutes on high. Pour that mixture in a 1 or 2 gl sprayer using a nut milk bag to filter the solids, add the dish soap. These measurements are not critical. Fill the sprayer to the top with water. Shake well. Pump it up and spray liberally. It doesn't affect ants but I've watched many other bugs curl up and die or skedaddle. Do this once per week and make sure you spray from underneath the tomato leaves. Also, wear a respirator or at the very least, a medical mask and try not to get this stuff in your nose, mouth or eyes. You'll pay for it if you do. 🙂
It’s nice to see you experience difficulties while growing your garden. It reminds us all that sometimes things are beyond us. It also teaches us to regroup and roll with the punches that the weather and other external factors throw at us. Have a blessed day.
Our 5 year old grandson LOVES Nana's sugar snap peas SO MUCH, he has decided he wants to be a pea farmer (oh, and a monster truck driver!) Sounds good to me! 🚚
I'm so glad to see someone else using straight fish as fertilizer! We have a huge natural pond in our front yard, so I get fish from it and bury in the garden. You're right - within weeks, even the big ones are decomposed down and the soil looks like coal, it's so black and rich. I do find scales for some time to come and I always wonder "why is there glitter in my garden?" Haha!
The gardening tips are very useful & even more, your faith in God shared through blessings, grace & scripture. I deeply appreciate the peace you two bring into my world & heart. ❤️
I grew up by the Niagara river as a kid in the 70s. My Dad always put his fish guts and heads in the garden! Now I'm in Florida. I once put okra on fish heads and they grew to 11'4" tall. The mullet run is happening on the beach. Now is a good time to get bait fish for the garden.
😂 You have to go fishing! 😂 It's so great that you both like it! There are two big TH-camrs who now use fish because of your success. I hope they're doing it correctly, sure seems like they're having great results. I really love the trellises! Cattle panel and 4x4s - can't beat 'em! These progression videos are so satisfying. Great thing for the foresight you had and the action you took when you saw that major heat coming in. Unplanned succession planting! Works for me! What I wouldn't give for a big serving spoonful of peas for dinner! So good for your grandson! This is a fine, fine video! Thank you!!!
Another great video Guys...one of your best IMO. Two people that obviously love and respect each other, the mention of a Grandson and even bigger smiles appear, a gardening video that shows the challenges and reality of weather along with perseverance and patience. Thanks for sharing hiccups rather than just the successes because that’s life. My wife loves “catching” better than “fishing” LOL. They got to be biting good or she’s done pretty quick. God bless you both!
In addition to what you said, Mark, they seem like they would be a real joy to have as grandparents. Fisher is a blessed young man to have two God-fearing, humble, industrious and skillful (along with whatever other gifts and talents they have) grandparents!! And Hollis is one of the BEST teachers of his gardening trade (by way of video). I would love to have them as neighbors in the community. May God's grace, peace, and mercy be multiplied in your life and theirs! God bless you. 😌
Hi Hollis & Nancy! Seeing your videos using fish reminded me of when I was a young boy living in Hawaii, I saw my grandparents using fish in their garden, too! I forgot all about it until I saw your videos and boy am I glad you reminded me cuz my harvests this year has been off the charts!! Keep up with your excellent videos, especially Nancy’s cooking videos!!
I receive such joy when I watch your videos. Love the videos because you help us with amendments to the soil and well, just the whole process. May GOD continue to bless you both in all you do!!!!
So glad you explained, in detail, how to use fish to fertilize. THIS is exactly what people like me want/need to learn. I trust your judgment because after watching so many of your videos and seeing your garden results with the way you show time-lapse clips, you give me hope that maybe I can do better. My garden here in zone 8B Texas basically all died with the extreme heat, so I feel for you regarding the heat spell you had to deal with. Hope we all have better luck in the future....God Bless :)
Love the new video! We thought we planted bush green beans but we started to notice them growing more like pole green beans...it's okay we just added a wire cage and can't wait til we start to get some beans. Our container sweet potatoes are coming along. Lots of leaves after 4 weeks. Thank you for inspiring us to start growing our own vegetables!
Great teaching on how all of this works Hollis. I so appreciate you and all you do! Your garden is always amazing! I’ve been following you for many many years and always look forward to your videos
I used to watch your videos before you moved to Florida and wondered how I could have the same success where I live (in Florida) with this sandy soil...I can't even begin to tell you how joyful it made me to see that you moved here and that we are practically neighbors! I can't wait to retire so I can cultivate my garden with all I've learned from you and Nancy. Big Thanks for all you do!
Thank you for sharing the story about your grandson. Y’all always make us smile. We know about the little grands. Our grandson Tristan loves being in the garden . He walks, picks and loves to eat the tomatoes and cucumbers. When he gets quiet; 😂😂😂he is snacking on the vegetables. We will add sugar snap peas for him soon. We look forward to meeting Fisher.
Those Sugar Snaps are so much better fresh from the garden! Not even close to what you get in a commercial can. And I never thought about it but that probably is a great way to get kids eating veggie cause they sure are sweet right off the plants. Thanks for sharing such great knowledge and the video. Keep up the great work.
I recently found your videos and I absolutely love your seed to harvest format. You provide more information in one video than most do in an entire playlist. Thank you!!!
Last year was my first adventure with sugar snaps. I had no idea about the fish, but, being led by our Lord I put sardines in the earth and said a prayer. They were beautiful. I've amended the soil this last fall, "Maine" and am looking forward to and early spring planting. I went seed to earth. Wonderful harvest. Again thank you Holis and Nancy. God be with you
Sir, I’ve just gotta say your video really made my day. No need to explain the how’s and why’s,. Just know that in the opposite corner of the country up here, north of Seattle Washington, you’ve earned a subscriber. Gardener to Gardner, THANK YOU! Sidenote, my fiancé, and I happen to fly into that storm down there when we arrived at Fort Lauderdale that season. The tropical storm was kind of reckoning and eye-opening. It’s ironic that we experienced that all while you were filming your experience. Hope you and Nancy are doing well this season. It’s the beginning of our gardening season and my sugar snaps are doing pretty good. Appreciate the Advice
Don't know if it has been suggested, but I grow with containers in the Midwest. And I have an abundance of maple and oak seedlings that crop up my yard every year and I pot them in pots up to 14 inches and use them as moveable shade for some of my more tender plants when the heat comes on here in the summer and early autumn. I rotate them in 3's and keep about 9 plants growing at a time. When they outgrow the pots I give the tree away or plant it somewhere I am allowed to plant. I am so glad I found your channel, you have answered so many questions I have had about my garden, where my success and failure have come from. Thank you so very much for these videos!
My husband takes me fishing until the license gets so ridiculous here in California 😔 so we don’t fish anymore we take the grandkids to fishing and they love it ♥️🥰 takes for sharing your video about peas and fishing ♥️👍👍
I have thrown in the towel many times but I make notes in my gardening books of what went wrong and solutions to improve the next time. This is what turns our thumbs green❤️👍
I had some of the same problems with my green beans this year; my scarlet runners had beautiful flowers but no beans, I’m going to try some peas now and hope for the best. 🙏🌱 Hope you and your homestead did okay with Ian, I’ve been praying for you all! 🙏🕯👩🌾🧑🌾🐕
Thanks for taking us along. While you were over there at the seed starting table I was breaking my neck trying to see what else you got started there. It'd be great if you'd run down thru there and show is what's there, keep us coming back for more, us know? lol Thanks for another great vid!
Wonderful video - nature is unpredictable and I appreciate you showing that and how you adjust to compensate for the many things that happen to us as gardeners. I believe that gardening is a great teacher of patience. This video is so helpful and I’ve really been wanting to grow sugar snaps. I’m in zone eight so I think I’ll wait for late fall.
I'm a new gardener in NE Fl. I just recently found your channel. Hands down, your channel is the most informative for growing in our state. Thank you for explaining the how and why for everything you do. Thank you to Black Kow for supporting your channel.
Sugar Snaps are one of my Favorites!! our Growing season in the Tampa Bay area is short, but I have had some success with them. i know I need to plant at least double what I planted this fall in order to get the quantities I would like. There's Nothing better than having them in your own yard! I don't ever peel them, I just eat the whole thing. They are awesome! Thank you for all you do, and keep the Videos coming! I Love Them!! I'm continually re-learning with your help what was taught to me decades ago.
Thanks for all the info tips on the fish, people should understand very well now how it all works. Looking forward to Nancy doing a video on stir fry with the sugar snap peas. God bless you all.
Love your gardening videos & scriptural encouragement! I have learned a lot about a variety of veggies & am always very encouraged in the Lord! Thanks ❤
Thanks again Hollis and Nancy, for another great, informative video. I’ve been sharing your videos with my produce growing family. I enjoy them so much, and also Nancy’s recipes and cooking demos! I would love to see more planting, fertilizing, harvesting and cooking of the Asian veggies also. Thanks “Team NancyHollis”!
I started a spring planting of sugar snaps about 2 weeks ago. I direct planted and they're doing great. I love em as well. I have a 'Mature Manure' T-shirt myself. I love wearing it to the store.
Hollis and Nancy, love your honest to goodness style, showing us how challenges do come for gardeners! So surprised to see you pop up another standby tray ready to go! Yeah, Plan B. Here in west coast, we term these as snow pea - yes they don't like the oppressive heat at right. A great blessing recaaling our granddaughter did better than us spotting the pea pods and make them disappear in her mouth :) Much blessings to you two loving couple +
My son was a Pea lover. He was (helping) me clean the shed one day and asked if he could have some Peas. I told him yes, but only 2 or 3, it's almost supper time. Went to check on him after about 15 minutes. There he was, sitting on the deck, surrounded in pea PLANTS and empty pods. "What did You Do" "You said I could pick 3" He was right, he picked exactly 3 PLANTS!!! I knew right then and there, I'd been had by my own words. Outsmarted by a 4 year old. lol TYFS 😇
Hey Hollis this garden season I used the fish I caught out of my creek to fertilize one row of sweet corn. It grew very well, no issues with the cobs. The squirrels loved it. Lol take care love your videos
Thanks for sharing. I eat the entire pod. I love them raw pod and all. I am so glad you showed the fish remains in the ground because I was wondering if you had ever shown that in one of the older videos like maybe when you were up north. I wrote the question while I was watching video so I wouldn't forget to ask and then I had to go back and delete the comment... LOL
Thanks for introducing us tp planting limed fish with our plants. This is a wonderful idea. I also use oyster shell in my garden for calcium. Iced more pot ash in mysoil. tms poet Ohio 2/3/23
I want to plant some in a planting table with a trellis. I think that’ll work. Can’t plant in the ground because of my back but I’m experimenting with friendlier ways.
How great! I thought they were for February in 8b but much more useful to grow in fall. I asked Rouse’s grocery and a local fish store, but both now get fish delivered already headed and gutted, they say.
I decided to plant beans for the first time in the garden. I’m not a big bean eater but I wanted to try different variety’s so I planted yellow wax beans and some purple beans and I also planted rattle snake beans. The yellow beans didn’t do very well neither did the purple beans but the rattle snake beans grew really well and gave me a great harvest. I’m going to save some beans to plant again next year these were delicious 👍
Hello - Love all these videos from seed to harvest - I've heard you should soak the peas before planting to get 100% sprouts - What do you think about that?
I really enjoyed that, very relaxing! I’m growing edible podded sugar snap peas. Up here in the Toronto area I put them in around August 1st to replace my bush beans, we should have a nice harvest in the fall. I reckon my climate is a little more conducive to English peas than Florida’s! I really liked those beautiful trellis beds you built, I was imagining all the different crops I would use on them. God bless Klaus
Hello, one suggestion, when temperatures are so high, you might want to use a shade cloth or something similar. I plant mine on the east side of my house, they have plenty of sun to produce, and the hot does not affect them as bad. I love your videos and how naturally you grow your veggies. Thank you for sharing with us.
wow Nancy I just love to see the smile on your face when you eat those peas Its like a kid In a candy store your peas look wonderful thanks for sharing that video
Beautiful video. I love how you take us from start to harvest and I am always amazed by what people can grow in the various zones at the same time as myself. Nature is such an amazing thing. We'll be planting our sugar snaps in a couple month's here and I can't wait. Definitely a favorite. Thank you for the fish information. I know what we will do this summer lol.
Lol, I'm blessed that my husband didn't like fishing or doing any other kind of sport, including being a spectator. Just wish he'd lived to enjoy the house we bought right before he passed away and could be here now helping plant
really enjoy your videos and gardening knowledge. God Bless You. I have shared your videos with a friend who is a dead ringer, a look-alike of you Hollis. Looking forward to his reaction.

While you were over there at the seed starting table I was breaking my neck trying to see what else you got started there. It'd be great if you'd run down thru there and show is what's there, keep us coming back for more, us know? lol
Thanks for another great vid!
Some kind of brassica, it looks like.
I love watching seed to harvest videos. It covers the entire journey.
Excellent video. Grew peas last year and my 5yr. Old grandson loved them. He picked them off the plant and ate them
Yay! I new video! I adore you guys!!!!! 😁👍🏻😁👍🏻😁👍🏻😁👍🏻😁👍🏻
I love this channel.. so happy to have found it!! ❤🙌🏾🙏🏾
Welcome to our homestead family 💕
Wonderful video - nature is unpredictable and I appreciate you showing that and how you adjust to compensate for the many things that happen to us as gardeners. I believe that gardening is a great teacher of patience. This video is so helpful and I’ve really been wanting to grow sugar snaps. I’m in zone eight so I think I’ll wait for late fall.
I'm a new gardener in NE Fl. I just recently found your channel. Hands down, your channel is the most informative for growing in our state. Thank you for explaining the how and why for everything you do. Thank you to Black Kow for supporting your channel.
Thanks so much. I'm trying green peas this fall. My first fall garden and I'm so excited 😊.
Thank you for posting this video. Getting ready to move to 6 1/2 acres in Texas hill country. You ended with my favorite verse!!! Much love. JD
Good heavens. The patience of Job! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💕
Sugar Snaps are one of my Favorites!! our Growing season in the Tampa Bay area is short, but I have had some success with them. i know I need to plant at least double what I planted this fall in order to get the quantities I would like. There's Nothing better than having them in your own yard! I don't ever peel them, I just eat the whole thing. They are awesome!
Thank you for all you do, and keep the Videos coming! I Love Them!! I'm continually re-learning with your help what was taught to me decades ago.
Love how you go from seed to harvest
I love Ms Nancy’s winter outfit ! Very chic!
Thanks for all the info tips on the fish, people should understand very well now how it all works. Looking forward to Nancy doing a video on stir fry with the sugar snap peas. God bless you all.
Love the tutorial. Especially love the message from Isaiah about the love of my life! Peace and blessings to you this Christmas season 2023 xoxoxo
I love Miss Nancy. Those meals are beautiful!!! U too Mr Hollis!
Lol you are blessed ! Now get out there and fish ! Beautiful peas .thanks for sharing !
👍🎣
Recently found your channel! Planted my carrots according to your instructions and they are doingngreat so far. Here now for snow peas! Thanks 💗
Enjoy your garden and the videos ❤️❤️🐶
Love your gardening videos & scriptural encouragement! I have learned a lot about a variety of veggies & am always very encouraged in the Lord! Thanks ❤
Thanks again Hollis and Nancy, for another great, informative video. I’ve been sharing your videos with my produce growing family. I enjoy them so much, and also Nancy’s recipes and cooking demos! I would love to see more planting, fertilizing, harvesting and cooking of the Asian veggies also. Thanks “Team NancyHollis”!
Our pleasure!
I started a spring planting of sugar snaps about 2 weeks ago. I direct planted and they're doing great. I love em as well. I have a 'Mature Manure' T-shirt myself. I love wearing it to the store.
Tons of super helpful information, THANK YOU!! 🌿
Hollis and Nancy, love your honest to goodness style, showing us how challenges do come for gardeners! So surprised to see you pop up another standby tray ready to go! Yeah, Plan B. Here in west coast, we term these as snow pea - yes they don't like the oppressive heat at right. A great blessing recaaling our granddaughter did better than us spotting the pea pods and make them disappear in her mouth :) Much blessings to you two loving couple +
My son was a Pea lover. He was (helping) me clean the shed one day and
asked if he could have some Peas. I told him yes, but only 2 or 3, it's almost
supper time. Went to check on him after about 15 minutes. There he was,
sitting on the deck, surrounded in pea PLANTS and empty pods.
"What did You Do"
"You said I could pick 3"
He was right, he picked exactly 3 PLANTS!!!
I knew right then and there, I'd been had by my own words.
Outsmarted by a 4 year old. lol
TYFS 😇
Hey Hollis this garden season I used the fish I caught out of my creek to fertilize one row of sweet corn. It grew very well, no issues with the cobs. The squirrels loved it. Lol take care love your videos
🐿🐿🌽🌽🌽
Thanks for explaining everything!
I love sugar snap peas too. They are my favorite snack. 😊
Thanks for sharing. I eat the entire pod. I love them raw pod and all. I am so glad you showed the fish remains in the ground because I was wondering if you had ever shown that in one of the older videos like maybe when you were up north. I wrote the question while I was watching video so I wouldn't forget to ask and then I had to go back and delete the comment... LOL
Thanks for introducing us tp planting limed fish with our plants. This is a wonderful idea. I also use oyster shell in my garden for calcium. Iced more pot ash in mysoil. tms poet Ohio

I want to plant some in a planting table with a trellis. I think that’ll work. Can’t plant in the ground because of my back but I’m experimenting with friendlier ways.
You are so blessed Hollis! Nancy too, yall are just great. Thanks for another great video.
Our pleasure!
How great! I thought they were for February in 8b but much more useful to grow in fall.
I asked Rouse’s grocery and a local fish store, but both now get fish delivered already headed and gutted, they say.
I wonder if all these fish emulsion fertilizer companies have cottoned onto this bounty from the fish stores, etc.
What a nice video and thanks for sharing your journey!!❤️
I decided to plant beans for the first time in the garden. I’m not a big bean eater but I wanted to try different variety’s so I planted yellow wax beans and some purple beans and I also planted rattle snake beans. The yellow beans didn’t do very well neither did the purple beans but the rattle snake beans grew really well and gave me a great harvest. I’m going to save some beans to plant again next year these were delicious 👍
Hi 👋 I really enjoyed your video time ,work and sharing about your grandson 😀
Watching your videos is like falling in a rabbit hole 😄 I want to grow ALL THE THINGS!
I've been using black cow ever since I watched your videos. Thanks black cow!
Its so great to see this type of video from you guys again! Very informative. Successes and trials I'm here for it all.
Peace to you❤️Thanks for watching. Got plenty more videos coming your way
Just found you 🙂 TH-cam cancel you... Love you guys
Welcome to the family Carlotta ❤️👩🦳👨🦳🐶❤️
Hello - Love all these videos from seed to harvest - I've heard you should soak the peas before planting to get 100% sprouts - What do you think about that?
Thank you Jesus, thank you GOD
Thank you, Hollis and Nancy
Thank you so much. That was sweet to watch this whole presentation.
God Bless you all. Amen
I really enjoyed that, very relaxing! I’m growing edible podded sugar snap peas. Up here in the Toronto area I put them in around August 1st to replace my bush beans, we should have a nice harvest in the fall. I reckon my climate is a little more conducive to English peas than Florida’s! I really liked those beautiful trellis beds you built, I was imagining all the different crops I would use on them.
God bless
Klaus
Out of all the videos I watch Hollis an Nancy you the best ❤️
❤️
I am really enjoying your seed to harvest videos. Instant gratification.
Seeing the entire life of the plant really makes a difference to folks.
Hello, one suggestion, when temperatures are so high, you might want to use a shade cloth or something similar. I plant mine on the east side of my house, they have plenty of sun to produce, and the hot does not affect them as bad. I love your videos and how naturally you grow your veggies. Thank you for sharing with us.
Thanks for the tips!
I always enjoy the videos you guys put up. I always learn from you both and I always have a smile. Thank you both for everything you do.
Love your videos !! I've learned a lot plus I can get a cup of tea and just relax. TY
wow Nancy I just love to see the smile on your face when you eat those peas Its like a kid In a candy store your peas look wonderful thanks for sharing that video
Yummy 😃👩🦳
Yes, the peas and the pods are good. Sweet & crunchy!
Hollis, me and you are in the same boat. People can take one look at us and know that our wives are good cooks. 👍
❤️😂❤️
Bless you two ❤
Beautiful video. I love how you take us from start to harvest and I am always amazed by what people can grow in the various zones at the same time as myself. Nature is such an amazing thing. We'll be planting our sugar snaps in a couple month's here and I can't wait. Definitely a favorite. Thank you for the fish information. I know what we will do this summer lol.
Our pleasure!
Lol, I'm blessed that my husband didn't like fishing or doing any other kind of sport, including being a spectator. Just wish he'd lived to enjoy the house we bought right before he passed away and could be here now helping plant
Thank you so much for replying have a blessed day!
Hello 👋 you two I’m still planting seeds and still don’t know what I’m doing but I’m watching you guys and thank you 🙏
Wow, I really enjoyed the chatting and more relaxed and detailed video.
I always enjoy you 3 (Bing Bing counts too)
Your Middleburg neighbor.
Mac
really enjoy your videos and gardening knowledge. God Bless You. I have shared your videos with a friend who is a dead ringer, a look-alike of you Hollis. Looking forward to his reaction.
I love fishing, I even like the smell of fish!
Nancy here! Me too :-)
