They could build a amusement park for badgers out of sticks and baking soda and I would watch it. 🥰
Can I get in line for this now or do i need to buy a ticket? 👍
LOL SO TRUE!!!!!🥳😊🎊
Me too!!
ESPECIALLY the badgers, they need amusements.
so would I :)
You both always make my day!! Keep on being you! Bec .. your courage is infectious.
Looks fabulous. Can’t wait to see it in the middle of your winter
Ok. If you're going to put spiders on your hand, warnings dude!! I'll be over in the corner shuddering in terror and nausea. So nice to see Bec feeling well enough to be up and around 🥰💖🚐🇨🇦
love watching your journey
Nice
Nice
this is SO cool and impressive! can't wait to see everything that grows 🪴
Hi TH-cam :)
yoooo youtube hello
why is youtube here
Idk why are they here
why ain’t nobody talking TH-cam is here
Van life was so much fun with y’all, but I gotta be honest, I’m lovinggggg the cabin, cottage, homesteading vibes that y’all’s videos have now ♡ and even more than that, I’m so happy you are on your way back to a healthy happy normal!! ♡
same
So glad they have this safe space to enjoy each other during this battle!
Glad to see you guys back! You guys are an inspiration to many people, building things while fighting cancer takes so much power I can’t imagine. So happy Bec looks good and healthy and winning.
Thank you so much!! Hope you enjoy this geodesic dome series 💛
A garden to heal the body and soul, love it! They do say talking to your plants help them grow, whether it's the CO2 you exhale, good vibes, or you just tend to take better care when you love and talk to them. Zucchini is amazing for beginners, but don't plant too too much as each plant produces a ton of veg! It's usually the one gardeners are trying to give to everyone because they have so much haha. There's some really cool stuff on making mini arch trellises for growing beans or peas in beds, might be worth a look! They look cute and beans are great for preserving. One thing my mom has always done, and her mom before, is you try to preserve or freeze a little of each thing you grow. Then on Thanksgiving, you break out all the years harvest for your meal as a celebration of all you grew. Cannot recommend it enough.
I COULD NOT BE MORE EXCITED TO WAKE UP AND SEE EAMON AND BEC IN MY FEED 💖 We miss your regular uploads and are so happy to see both your beautiful faces again, wishing you all the best and much love xxx from Bowmanville Ontario
Bec, this is the happiest I see you in a long time, and Eamon was goofy as he usually is again, it make me feel the contagious joy that you transmit to everybody, guys you are invincible.
ok
Health stuff is hard enough but the fact that you guys continue to persevere and find good in the bad is really inspiring and it’s helping me as I deal with some health issues this year. Thank you guys so much ☀️
Sending you positive thoughts to you on your health journey. 🥰🤗
@@eamonandbec 100% agree with what Ivy said...same here. And Bec, you look great - healthy and happy! We are preparing to take our next steps into pursuing a homestead and it's super scary going into the unknown, but you guys are truly inspirational to us as well! Love and prayers from the states :)!
Congratulations on becoming official dome owners! Keep growing, thriving, and inspiring. Wonderful to see you happy and healthy. 💚🌱
Thank you friends!! We appreciate you beyond measure 💛🌞
Hi! Ben and associates! Loved watching you help and advise
@Arctic Acres, do the domes do okay in Northern Alberta winters? We get -40s and -50 with the windchill. I’d love to be able to grow in the winter!
Loved this video!!
@@016krystal That's what these domes were designed for! There are Growing Domes in every province and territory in the country, and we actually started in the territories working with communities and charities looking for new ways to combat food insecurity.
We pack each kit full of passive heating features and accessories, the geodesic shape itself assists in climate control creating both a greenhouse effect and igloo effect from accumulating snow acting as insulation. At the moment provided there is 4-6 hours of sunlight, before any electricity or supplemental heating is added Growing Domes can self-heat upwards of 20-25°C above the ambient temperature. When you include additional passive heating systems like a GAHT system or solar vacuum tubes (which we have been testing), you can increase these effects even further.
We'd still recommend supplemental heating for extreme weather, but our domes are tundra-tested and we welcome the challenge!
Hi Bec! Just finished my first year of planting and here’s some things I learned: 1) keep the seed packets. Sometimes you have to plant and then once they start to sprout, thin them out. 2) lettuce is definitely easy to grow. 3) you may find slime mold in your beds. Super weird but it’s not harmful. 4) you don’t have to use ALL of your seeds at once, actually spread them out. 5) look up companion planting (lettuce, spinach and strawberries together to increase yield). 6) geraniums are your friend and will keep critters away.
Greenhouse looks incredible! Great work ❤️❤️❤️
Also look into succession planting so you stagger the harvest over a period of time.
I can picture grow bags all along the front and middle of this neatest greenhouse!!
companion planting is a huge bonus in space like this. Umm, what the word, biointensive gardening? I think is another. Its where things can really grow well together because they dont steal nutrients the other needs, but their roots are also at different levels as well so they dont crowd. It also keeps down on pests, (most pests show up to eat sick plants. Thriving plants produce a "chemical" that repels pests). You probably already know this, but just in case. Love that you brought this up S R! I was so happy with other things It just went over my head but this is super important. Also, if you look into old native american crop rotation it'd keep your soil happy!
The greenhouse looks amazing! Growing in a greenhouse is a little different than growing outside, but I watch two channels that are crazy with information for eating healthy and growing you own food. They are, Off Grid with Doug and Stacy and Homesteading Family. I just ordered a fermenting book from Doug & Stacy and I am excited to get started on my new journey of fermenting some of our produce. From our garden so far this year, I have canned chili starter and this weekend I will be canning salsa and spaghetti sauce. If you want to make sauces and the like, stick with varieties of Roma tomatoes, they are "meatier" and thicken up nicely.
Also, herbs!! So far, I have dried oregano, sweet marjoram, parsley, thyme, rosemary and dill for the pantry. I will dehydrate our peppers for use in sauces and also make sun dried tomatoes and tomato powder that can be used to thicken sauces and make paste for recipes. Also, basil... I dehydrate some and I also make fresh pesto. You can also freeze pesto to have fresh in the winter months. There's nothing like pulling pesto out of the freezer in January, it tastes like summer!
I suggest that you find a little sunny spot on your land and plant garlic this fall. Order from someone that grows organically in your climate for fall planting. This will ensure that it will survive the colder temps. Weed in spring and enjoy sauteed scapes in late spring/early summer (if you plant hardneck- softneck does not scape) Then, harvest your garlic in the summer. You can freeze garlic up to 6 months in a deep freezer in an airtight container, I use canning jars. I also dehydrate some of my garlic for powder for seasoning. There is nothing like homegrown garlic! So much more tasty than store bought!!!
If you plan on continuing to garden, I suggest that you buy a large dehydrator. It's defiantly a game changer when it comes to preserving your harvest for use in the winter months, especially herbs, garlic and peppers.
I know it's a lot of information but I'm so excited to see you excited about growing your own food!!!
I would do a few different types of tomatoes. A slicer and a couple of different kinds of Romas. I'd also do your lettuces and whatever herbs you use on a regular basis. Just remember, all seeds are not created equal! Get heirlooms if you are able to. Then, you can harvest seeds from your own crops and reuse those next season.
Start small this year and add a little more next year.
And Bec, you look great!
Happy gardening!
Wow! Beautiful comment and so insightful! Thank you
We are continuously inspired by your amazing energies and grateful attitudes! So happy to call you guys our imaginary friends ☀️
❤ Bec you look radiant and beautiful! I’m so happy that you are doing so well! You are an inspiration to anyone out there going thru anything with their own health. Love seeing Eamon and Oso having fun together. Eamon and Oso are super amazing and so supportive! You are truly blessed by them and we are truly blessed by all 3 of you!!❤️ Y’all’s greenhouse looks amazing. I love okra and cucumbers, not sure if you planted those but would be a great addition to the rest of your delicious looking veggies! On a more serious note, I’m going in this Friday to have a mammogram as they recently found a lump in my breast. No matter what happens I’ve drawn strength from you and your journey, and I would love to hear from you and any advice/support you could give me in my journey I’m about to go thru.
Wishing you the best of luck, and healing energy
Best of luck 🤞🤞🤞 and 🤗🤗 hugs
sending love
The paw prints where Osso walked on the outside of the pool need to be sealed in and preserved forever. Osso is the coolest dog, he needs his own feature video!!! 🐶
Thanks Adrienne! We do love our Oso! 💛💛💛
just the sweetest boy!!💗🐶
ok
@@eamonandbec I hope you’re a foster fail and keep Osso. He’s such a good match for you two. He soo loves you both
This is pretty exciting, guys. Bec, you look awsome! May I give you some advice about your zucchini in particular? When planting zucchini, it is important to leave plenty of space for the individual plants - about 1.5 to two meters each - because zucchini grow very large. As soon as the seedlings get their first leaves after the cotyledons, you should separate them, you will often read or hear the expression pricking out. And don't worry about your harvest. On average, up to 20 fruits grow on a zucchini plant.
This!! zucchini is a big plant!
Also pokey! So when you do have them too crowded you have to keep up on removing leaves and getting their thorny hair in your hands and it's not my favorite garden task. 😫
Yes, this! Wear gloves when you mess with them. They get little prickly things on them. Also.. if you don't want them to go all over stake them so they can grow upwards.
2 seeds will make a bountiful harvest! I used to garden all my fruits/veggies and can/freeze/preserve, etc. But I never grew zucchini because every single neighbor would and had 5 gal buckets to give away constantly! They take a huge amount of space and strongly suggest having them vine up on a very strong trellis!
So happy to see Bec is recovering nicely & that beauty smile is back. Ben is awesome!
I am so happy to see you guys back again, my wife and I love like our children. Bec, you are an inspiration and all young adults need to take lessons from your strengh and humility. Eamon you are a pillar and a inspiration to what the modern day gentleman should be.
So many things to comment that you did RIGHT! Excellent!! Inspirational. Bless.
I get so emotional seeing Bec. I’m so happy she is doing well I love watching your journey. Thank you so much for sharing You both are such loving and kind hearted humans. ❤️
As an organic gardener in the past 3yrs this makes me so happy that you guys are doing this. You will LOVE the garden therapy for years to come. 💖🌱💖🌱💖🌱
May I suggest the following gardening channels I learn tons from ... The Rusted Garden, Gary Pilarchik & Plot37, Jessie
Also Roots & Refuge!!! My top favorite channel. Jess makes my heart explode.
And Acre Homestead.
OMG SO BRAVE FOR PUTTING THAT SPIDER ON YOUR HAND! The dome looks great! You both are an inspiration to learn more and do great things to better our lives!
I am so happy to see the card board to-do list are back. This means Bec is getting better! I know this has been a tough year for you both!
I love you guys! You're amazing, inspiring, strong, determined and above all else, loving souls. I've watched you for years and I will continue to watch. I wish you nothing but the best and hope that life gives you all the joy it has to offer. xoxo
Thanks so much Kate! 🥰🥰🥰
Getting the soil correct leads to optimal harvest. Most plants 🌱 need at least 6 hours of morning sun ☀️ I hope you have allowed for this. Make sure and get great gardening books from authors that grow organically in Canada in your particular growing zone. Research, research, research and learning lead’s to years of satisfying enjoyment while feeding yourself from your own garden. I know you can do it, you two are amazing. Big Love ♥️♥️♥️
Grow lights if there isn't sufficient sun!!
Long time fan here. I had eight biopsies taken this week, and thinking of you and your journey was like having a much needed guide. I thought, "If Bec can do all she has, then you can handle this!" Fortunately, I got good news, but it was quite the scare. Thank YOU BEC, you are one amazing human! Can't wait to watch this video now.
So happy to hear you had good news! 🙏.🥰. Glad my journey could help in some small way! Wishing much health and happiness! 🥰🥰🥰
@@eamonandbec I hope for the best for you two too, every, single, day. Thank you!!!!
Hey! Just a little tip: put just 1 or 2 seeds every 10 cm (depending on the plant) so they have room to grow. Cheers!
And then remove the weaker looking one (if you plant 2 seends next to eachother and they both grow).
Nice tips
Yay! I love this! Bec - here's my suggestion for you garden! :) I would not use Miracle Gro Soil in the future, because they are known for using chemical and synthetic fertilizers. Even the so called Organic Miracle Gro isn't the greatest for soil and plant health. But! Don't fret! There's ways to bring life back to your soil. I'm so excited your gardening, and I hope it brings you joy and lots of dirt in your fingernails, ha! Home grown veg just hits different. Oh yum. Much love and light!
Bec , you are doing so good, I had my first chemo Thursday, rough at 65 . I am determined to do this !
You can DO IT! Thinking of you and sending so much love your way as you navigate this journey 💛
@@eamonandbec chemo would be more fun if cancer cells screamed as they die!
Wishing you the best in your road to recovery. Stay strong!
Ahhhh Eamon! That was a wolf spider and they do bite humans! Its one of the biggest species you have in Canada. Im am completely freaked OUT😭😭😂🕸🕷🕸🕷
Bec you look gorgeous, looking forward to all the new adventures to come; wishing the best of health to you both going forward. Lots of love.
A good tip for beginner gardener is to pick vegetables that you know you will eat. After that you can start slowly adding new vegetables to try.
Being able to see regularly posted videos makes me SOOO happy! I sorta quit TH-cam for a while except for the E&B update videos, I'm glad to be back, as I'm sure they are too ❤
My sister n law and niece wanted a gold fish pond in the yard, so my brother got everything and put it in. It wasn't very long before all the fish were dead. I ask him what happened and he said "Have you ever made sun tea?" "Well that's what happened to the fish." So I don't know if the fish will survive, check before you do it.
You’re doing great gardening!! An idea to expand your space a little…. Get a few large planters/decorative pots for the center or outside of the main beds. Use the planters for things that spread more. Like mint or onions.
A few decorative pots would be adorable and it contains some plants from over taking the other plants. Even tomatoes would do great in the containers.
Love you guys so much!! Blessings Always!!! 💛💛💛
Should have bought tomatoe plants,squash, zucchini etc. Much faster growth and some will come back next year.
Bec - you are looking beautifully energized! Good to see that light in you
Hello Eamon and bec miss you guys hope everything is ok with you bec I really miss you guys please stay healthy safe and blessed my friends hope to see you soon prayers 🫶🏽🦋🙏🏾♥️🥰
Here's a hack for you, go buy the veggies you like to eat, and save the seeds, plant them and eat what grows. Also, it looks like you have space to install a round planter in the middle. and certainly not least or last, It's so good to see your feeling better Bec, I hope the rest of your life isn't blessed.
Keep in mind that saving the seeds doesn’t always produce the same veggie. Plants grown from hybrid seeds will revert back to one of the parents and can lose all the beneficial traits it was produced to have. Many gardeners who save seeds will look for heirloom varieties.
also a lot of the seeds from grocery veggies will not grow/sprout.. to test simply do some paper towel germination
@@Tantrumspam Very true. I never save seeds from veggies or fruits bought from the grocery store because it’s a crapshoot. Even if they do germinate and grow, sometimes they don’t produce.
We all start gardening not knowing, you'll learn as you go. You have the internet, in the 70s we didn't. Lol. Love you guys!
Start your asparagus need soon. Research it because you don't want to harvest for at least one full season.
Sending positive energy to you guys, always scary to go through health issues but I have no doubt you'll come out the other side, and Bec, your absolutely gorgeous, hair or no hair, it's your confidence and personality that make you who you are, not a few silly locks of hair... ;)
So happy you’re back missed you guys but I know you needed to take a little well deserved “ we” time.. May God bless and keep you safe.. he can when we can’t ❌⭕️❌⭕️🐶Otis and me🇮🇹 Massachusetts
I'm so happy your new episode came out . I've been waiting!😀😁
Also TIMS back!!!
Cut down all the trees around! Otherwise you will only be able to grow moss. 😢🤣. Apologies.
You guys always make me feel like I can do anything i would put my mind to
And so you can Nina! Thanks for watching! Have a great day! 💛
@@eamonandbec thanks you too! Also I love your short hair Bec! It looks Amazing on you
Growing tips I've learned: Take your seed spacing a bit serious. You'd be surprised how big some crops can get just off 1 seed. You can plant a few zucchini seeds in 1 spot and remove all but the healthiest one if you'd like, but definitely don't go hard on the plants that'll eventually get much larger. Remember a romaine head or a red lettuce head looks a specific size in the markets? Give them that space to grow. Take your time giving them water. Test with your finger an inch down to see if the soil is dry. Some newbies like to over water, and that can kill a plant as much as under watering. Try not to water leaves too much, or else you end up with potentially getting mildew and that can kill the plants.
There's a boatload to learn about gardening in general, but even more to learn about your own personal garden and how it flows. I've been using this 1st year as an experiment as well, and I've already learned a ton about the garden. It's a bit overwhelming at times, because you want to see tons of food come out of it right away, but it takes time.
I was thinking that too
That is an impressive greenhouse! Nice to see Tim again and Ben was awesome. Bec, I’ve read that if you plant lettuce seeds every 10 days, you will have lettuce throughout the season. Loved the last shot of Eamon in the pool. Hugs to you both.
I bet you can still plant kale, bok choy, cabbage. I have seen them grow through snow outside.
I love that you’re surrounded by earth angels! Great build-will definitely be worth its weight in food which is far more valuable than gold currently!
As always, sending you two, Bob and Tim warmth and love from Lancaster, PA.
Bec! Best advice for growing. The only seeds that will not grow are the ones that don't get planted. Enjoy growing goodies! Also Jess from Roots and Refuge has a great book for beginners.
Hey there! Thank you for posting. This channel just brings me joy and I always look forward to seeing what fun you get into. bec you are looking gorgeous queen and Eamon you are a handsome genius 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽
Miracle grow is the worst soil to buy as it's full of non organic stuff. The best is plain dirt, manure and some worms.
I’m so proud of you! It looks amazing! I started growing my own produce in the beginning of this year. So far I harvested Cucumbers, zucchini and tomatoes and potatoes, leeks and bell peppers are growing as well.
Wow, I love it, I love it, I love it to made at your greenhouse this is perfect! 👌👌👍 and keep it going.
they look so good already!!! tbh i was feeling a bit depressed before i put this video but you guys give me LIFE i love yo both lots and bec i loved your cute hats and gardening outfit, you're making me wanna plant some stuff but idk what does well in august hm
Sunday is here and it’s the Eamon and Bec show. That has a nice ring. Could a sitcom be in your future. Love you guys ♥️ Harriet and I are so glad your
feeling better Bec. Thank You for taking us along. Harriet, Jim and Yuki
Yay! I’m glad to see you guys back at it!
Sending lots of love to your family 💕
"If it were me it would take all day though, oop theres a crinkle!" Literally made my day lol i totally agree
I love your dome! It’s very cool and something I am going to keep in mind should I ever get a property big enough to build one. Great job; nice to see Tim back! 🧤As for planting, I am not a gardener per se but I am interested in such things. There’s great guy- a high energy TH-camr by the handle of creative explained. He’s got tonnes of videos about growing seeds from plants and kitchen scraps PLUS, how to make your kitchen scraps into excellent fertilizer. He is a high energy guy - kinda like Eamon. I think you’ll like him and get great tips! Bec, you coming in to talk to the plants DEFINITELY helps. 😊 Love to see you in the vlogs slowly but surely flourishing again, and thriving just like your lovely seedlings. 🥰Stay well friends.
Hi! You've a gorgeous picture on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say hi 😊.I hope my compliment is appreciated 🌹
Hope everything is ok with you 2
You guys are awesome! Bec, you look adorable with short hair, long hair, no hair, whatever😊❤️ You both are so upbeat and optimistic and that is contagious! Thank you so much for sharing your journey.
Aww! Thanks so much for your kind words Belinda and for being part of our journey! 🥰🥰🥰
Eamon and Bec 🎀 Sorry I am late watching your video. 📸 My husband Arthur had a heart 💔(aka the widow maker) attack with 3 stints heart surgery last week.😢 Then he was diagnosed with Buschke Lowenstein Giant Condyloma and is now having chemotherapy treatment.🙏 I am his nurse, caregiver, housekeeping and wife.❤️I love you both so much and sending you positive vibes. ✌️#davesandersstepdaughter 🇺🇲
~DO WELL TO GET THROUGH TO US ON THE LINE ABOVE!!☝️~
Fun to see Tim again!!! Good luck with your garden! We all need one!!!
Honestly so in love with gardening already!!! Cannot wait to have our first meal from our garden 🪴 💛
I admire your work so much.
Hello, Humans
The first film with a $100 million budget was True Lies, which was made in 1994.
TERRANCE OUT
I advise against using Aimers seeds (assuming you got those in Perth at Foodsm....). The germination rate sucks. I've had great success with Hawthorn Organics (Ontario brand) or MI gardener. :)
get transplants instead of seeds for veggies and fruit... and use seeds for herbs
Anyone else sick of all the Athletic Greens ads in everyone's videos?
Ben was very entertaining. Gonna miss him! But enter Tim, rhymes with Jim! I’ve missed him! And loved that ending! Hahahaha. You guys are so entertaining.
Washing your paint down the drain goes into your septic which inevitably drains into your lake eventually. I don't think you want to be swimming in toxic chemicals.
Just a little tip! You can cut the bottom of a head of lettuce and put it in a jar of water and watch it grow! When its a few inches tall (1 week), you can plant it in soil. Love the videos & congratulations Bec!
You look amazing Bec, I am excited to see your garden. Remember gardening is not so complicated but its always a learning curve. Sometimes overwatering or giving to much love can be a thing also, but talking to them and showing love that way is always a blessing :). When they are just planted seed they need to stay moist so water them daily or atleast make sure they are damp. Once they sprout you can start slowing down on the water and as they progress depending on how your moisture content is inside the dome just read the soil by placing your finger in the soil and if its damp no water, if its dry water :) Do not worry to much about seed depth but depending on seed size you will learn the depths. Small seeds you plant just above the soil and larger seeds you plant further down. You will do great. I always just read up on how to care for certain plants because some plants like different things. Like more water, part shade, full sun etc. I think this is wonderful for you guys :) oxox You should try zucchini cake :) its a delicious way to get rid of all your zucchini. You can also grate your Zucchini and freeze it in portion sizes of one Zucchini for the recipes. Just an Idea so you can preserve it. You can also place it in compost if you decide to do that. So many options yay LOL :) I will leave you guys my special recipe when it is time :) Sending you LOVE!
@boli milda Agreed :)
So fun! I am a second year newbie and really haven't grown more than a couple of strawberries, cucumbers and tomatoes -- but so fascinated by nature and learning something new every day. It's a wonderful journey I hope you enjoy. Your imaginative builds really are always fun to watch.
God, how I want one! Love the humor along they way! It's a beautiful greenhouse and I cannot wait to see the progress in the coming weeks! I'm I'm Ohio and planted 4 oxheart (Curtis Cheek) tomatoes, and three grape tomatoes. The only thing I've used is mushroom compost and organic plant-tone to ferilize. I've gotten about 7 dozen grape tomatoes so far. The oxhearts take a little longer but they're looking great, so far. Good luck and great planting! Hugs to you both!
What people don’t realize what expands in the summer. When it’s warm but what would do when it’s cold it shrinks. What strengths when it’s in the winter time and when it’s cold. Would expands in the summertime when it’s warm out.
THANK YOU 😊!
~DO WELL TO GET THROUGH TO US ON THE LINE ABOVE!!☝️~
I’m so glad to see BOTH of you thriving again. But to be clear, I’m going to need all the Oso content. Like all the time.
Love to see it! (and love to see Tim back! buddy!) If you're looking for more veggies that are super easy to grow, kale is a great one. I'm a veggie newbie this year too and the kale's growing so fast I almost can't eat it fast enough!
You guys are amazing ❤️ great job 👍 love your videos ... And so happy to see Bec looking healthy and beautiful like always and Eamon you are hilarious dude 👍👍😀😂😂😘🌹
you can put a waterpump in there and put plants above the pool and have the water be filtered by the plants and go back into your pool for the fish, its called an aquaponic system, look it up! you guys would educate SO MANY PPL on a sustainable solution they don't know about!
THANK YOU 😊!!
~DO WELL TO GET THROUGH TO US ON THE LINE ABOVE!!☝️~
Love this!! You should paint over Oso’s paw prints on the pool so they’re there forever! (His contribution to building the greenhouse 😆)
Glad to see you guys back to work! Very inspirational to see you guys working while fighting cancer💛💛 So funny to see Oso’s paw prints on the pool! 😂
Hey Eamon....i wish i could be HALF the man You are......!! You make me proud.....!!!
Give my best regards to Bec....i don't have to say how brave SHE is.....!!
Best regards from Dennis, Sweden
BECK, the seeds should have some space between them. Each seed is a plant.
I seed what you did there...😎
Great job guy’s, on the garden build. Bec, you look so cute, pray that all is well with you. Love you guy’s. I will continue to pray, as always. God Bless love’s 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️❤️👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾
One reccomendation I have ( and followed from my family) is to keep a journal of where you planted, what you planted and what the weather was like a few days before and after first seed. 🥰🥰
This is sooooo cool!
Congratulations 🎉🍾🎈🎊, we are so happy to see Bec is very good now, we are Alex and Faby from Mexico we are “ Abuelos sin Rumbo “ you can see our channel in TH-cam haha just for you know us …. We follow you since many years ago because we started our Sprinter project thanks to Max and Lee 😥😥 (RIP) we love your videos and we are so proud of you ….

I
The love between the two!
Bec: Maybe if I come in at night and speak to them and give them lots of love, maybe if will help the growth
Eamon: Helps my growth 😉🤣
Love it and you guys! And yes those paw 🐾’s are precious! Dogs are the best medicine!! Can’t wait to see the crops!!! I’m on my 3rd year of a garden and loving it. Lots of learning involved for sure, but it’s the best feeling cooking what you grow!!
Hi! You've a gorgeous picture on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say hi 😊.I hope my compliment is appreciated 🌹
So, for a recomendation for gardening: In our garden this year we did something called square foot gardening, it uses a plastic frame, and it has different holes for different plant types, and a stick for measuring depths, it seems to work very nicely from our exprience. The one we use is called a seeding square, but im sure you could find measurments somewhere on the internet.
Eamon in the water pool...PRICELESS!!! ha ha ha too funny..Only surprise...that Osso wasn't in there with him...LOL
I love your page, and this isn’t meant to be mean/ rude, etc… just an FYI….. I watch several old vanners/ now homesteader videos… and you all earn VERY good $$$ money for each of us who watch your videos, then you all get lots of stuff, sOme VERY expensive….like the geodesic dome, your athletic greens, etc…for FREE, ….then promote it for “us” to buy…….(when most people “I” know…myself included….don’t have the money for any of these luxuries (and trust me….the companies don’t take a $$ cut….the free stuff YOU all get….just increases the price WE pay. 😔😔. Basic economics…
I'm following you on IG but Beck your hair and eyebrows are looking so lovely! I love this short hair on you so much ( I was that short before) and its really empowering in a whole new way. I'm excited for whatever you choose to do going forward and seeing how much you both continue to grow!
I hope you both keep in touch with Ben, you always find the most amazing people! Have him and Tim over for dinner! missing Tim! I bet with their lines of work they could help each other a lot, and I'm sure Eamons got something he needs help with =D
**edit** HOLY FREAKING HECK I literally just commented on how I was missing Tim, like ten seconds before, and here he is!!! HHHHIIII TTIIIMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So excited to see you back!!!!! HHHIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(you know I'm missing Bob too...)
**edit** tomatoes (and hot peppers) LOVE growing near basil, as do strawberries! Spinach likes strawberries too. If you get them all in the same area they help each other out and have different root depths so they dont compete. Helps with tomato worms too.
Plants also love music. Talking to them is wonderful, so is singing to them or leaving music on =)
As an avid gardener, who only uses materials that I compost here at the farm, which includes a copious amount of horse manure, fallen leaves, wood chips, etc., stay away from chemical fertilizers and garden soils. Find a local who has composted manure, add lots of organic materials, i.e., leaves, wood chips, household compost all year long, do not over water, in fact, let some of your first borne and less hardy die, cultivate the seeds from the hardiest drought/chemical pesticide resistant specimens you have, and replant them next year to propagate the hardiest, strongest, produce! Beware of chemicals. Please. I have some of the most amazingly hardy and delicious produce by following this protocol. I love Back to Eden on TH-cam the most magnificent, common sense, perma-culture gardener on the planet! Good luck and be well!
🤣🤣🤣🤣hear Eamonn being dirty 🤦🏻♀️Bec ignored him♥️♥️♥️I am really looking forward to watching them learn to grow stuff...I have been growing very basic growing for the last few years ., there is so much to learn because it takes a whole year to put yr mistake s right for the following grow.... amazing fun tho...it's great to grow your own plants flowers and food... amazing have fun you two xxxx
Greenhouse looks epic! We're very jealous! One hot tip. Add Worm Castings to the top layer of your soil. Super infusion of nutrients...really does make a difference.
Also, if you haven't watched "Biggest Little Farm" you've missed out! Cheers and good vibes for Bec's amazing recovery!
Looking good you guys!! I began growing 💗 a garden during the Pandemic. Kept hearing about food shortages. I grew tomatoes, squash, corn, cucumbers, sunflowers, peppers. All successful. In little garden in Mexico. My key was grow seedlings in egg like carton or small decomposable planter first. You water and give sunshine. No over feeding. When sprouts emerge and are a couple inches tall, replant. Companion gardening is great. Pick a couple gardeners you like online 1-2. I also read Martha Stuarts Gardening book. So beautiful ❤️. Tomatoes were best I've had in my life by far!!! By the way, i also have gardening outfit hat dress, shoes. So healthy ,so rewarding, so gorgeous. You can pass it on to kids, grandkids . Very memorable. Heres to you having a wonderful garden journey!!! Almost forgot, pests, i use note soap mixed w water. It's safe for animals and environment and marigolds. Good luck!!
so good to see you guys making your wonderful home. Bec, Im no gardener but tried planting a few things this year (to save some pennies) & my plants were looking a bit sad, I thought they were dying. A friend told me "play classical music for them" ????!!!! So I tried it, the result was amazing, they bounced back & flourished. I may have been having my chain pulled but it seems to work! Making lots of pasta sauce with the tons of tomatoes I have. Cant wait for the broccoli - it looks almost ready. Happy green housing. Take care with your recovery & I award you a Gold Medal for putting up with that crazy Eamon & Oso.
