Jim definitely is living the dream, growing 365 and loving life
He truly is!
"working out" the dream ;)
2:20 Step 1: remove vegetation by cutting it down to ground level and sow Black eyed peas
3:40 Jim talks about a principle of composition instead of imposition
4:03 Step 2: Jim spreads The mulch over the top after he casted The Black eyed pea seed.
4:43 Step 3: what are the mulch and compost in. by watering heavily he's making compost tea in place. The reference Sea-90
7:04 Step 4: plant sweet potato slips. Earlier in the video Jim shows how he plants his own sweet potatoes.
14:25 Jim talks about a grafting technique for trees called "Top Working".
17:25 Jim's challenge with perennials
18:47 because of Jims contacts "money just almost falls out of the sky"
20:30 pro tip: left to pick, not pull
Thanks , much appreciated.
Thank you!
A video with Jim is always a good thing in this effed up world we currently live in. Gives me hope!
Can I give more than 1 thumbs up?!?! So true
Agreed!
Jim is a special person!💖
Love these videos. Very hardworking farmer. His community is blessed to him there.
I always love seeing what all he is doing in his garden. It’s very inspiring.
Great video! Jim is the hardest worker, and I learn so much from his strategies. He is growing so much even when he’s not there. Can’t wait to see the next video and get a summer peek at his garden in Maine!
damn. this guy works so hard !!!!!!!!! somebody give this man more land
He’s so intense, in the right way
Gosh time flies! Feels like Jim just got back from Maine!
Jim is a genius... The organic matter content of Jim's land must be enormous, 6% in my opinion ... In addition, he brings ground wood to the soil, which stores a lot of carbon in the soil and enriches the soil ...
Jim est un génie ... Le taux de matière organique doit énorme sur la terre de Jim, 6% à mon avis ... De plus, il apporte du bois broyé à la terre, ce qui permet de stocker beaucoup de carbone dans le sol et enrichit la terre ...
Gosh every video I watch of this guy just inspires me!
Love 🧡 Jim
Living legend!!!
Yes Indeed!
As always, there are so many nuggets of wisdom packed in a short talk with Jim. Thanks guys. Please keep it up!
Pete! You and Jim should do a video on garden planning the kovaleski way. Would love to see a breakdown of his "landscaping" style of gardening and how he goes about planning a garden
Great idea!
Ha I love Jim schooling you Pete on foraging mulberries 👊 I didn’t know that tip either! Theses videos are top shelf, informative and inspirational 👊
Love the knowledge that comes from Pete and Jim. Can't get enough of it. Thank you very much guys!
Safe travels!!!
This man is very knowledgble..cheers from Australia.Shared!
Love the videos!!! And Jim shaved!
I love the Jim videos!
loved all that ..my 101 year old friend plants her radishes on top of the carrots and saves space gets a good harvest
Really awesome!
Sweet tip on lifting the mulberries to harvest! Ours are just coming on strong upstate NY. Another awesome video guys. 🌱❤
Hey Pete and Jim, I bought a soil blocker because of you and it has increased my production quite a bit. Thanks for all the great exposes into a beautiful yard. It's quite inspiring to see what you've done with a relatively small space. Hope you are enjoying the garden.
Great tips as always, he is truly the Energizer Bunny, think I'll be rakin' and waterin' tomorrow as I lay down more mulch...and waitin' on mulberries, now that I know how to pick...that was a good one...!
Wow! He has so much incredible knowledge!
So full of goodness!
Love what you guys are doing, keep up the good work.
THE MASTER
I love it too ❤❤❤😊
Woohoo Jim shaved 😆 look so much better Jim. 😊 I so wish I could do what Jim does, truly inspirational. Love your videos keep up the fantastic work 🤗🇦🇺
NOOOOO he cut his beard.
Looks heaps better 😊
Have to say, you look 15 yrs younger. Nice.
Hey, Pete... Are you planning on having Jim do some talks/workshops at the new nursery/learning center? 😁 That would be worth a trip all by itself. 🙏
i just love him. he is all positive energy ❤❤❤❤❤
Go Jim Go! Learn so much from you every time.
Is always a pleasure seeing Jim thriving 🙏🍎
Like it? I love all your videos! I have a whole forest of Mulberry’s behind the garage that came with the house, and now I know how to pick ‘em! Thanks Jim and Pete!
Every video has such valuable information in it, really appreciate your knowledge Jim, thanks for sharing it with us!
Thank you for letting us in on these conversations. Really appreciate the insight Jim! Thanks for sharing Pete!
Its amazing! I want to live in FL and do gardening. ☀️🌸☘️
Shamali kale?
Chomalia. And they are out of stock.
Have a safe trip Jim. 👍
I can't find the website that sells the Chomalia.
Jim should take on an apprentice or two to care for his crop in summer
To both of you gentlemen … thank y’all very much .
You have to go up to Maine!!! I love seeing Jim farm up there!! Please!?!
Thank you. Jim is a Kang.
beautiful home garden...my dream home...great job jimmy 👍👍👍...thanks Pete ... 👍👍👍
💯%Respect 🤸♂️🙏🌾
Awesome video as always!
Pro Tip Jim!
I just love Jim videos. So interesting and fun. You two have a-good time
Hi. I decided to film my garden this year. Its just a traditional garden with lots of grass but most things did well.
Awesome!
So many good ideas to stay productive while living the North to South green dreams!! African Perennial Kale!! BIG UP! Thank You
Jim's Endless Summer 😅🌱🌿🌻
Thanks for sharing 🥰
Nice video 👍 Thanks
Another great video with some great tips. I would like to hear more about Sea 90 ammendment!
Have been growing onions for a while in far North Queensland Australia, when we transplant we always top and tail them. Tops 3 to 4 inches, roots cut to 1 inch keep them moist, seaweed bath before you plant. Have found some that fell out of the transplant basket, being lying on the path for a week, planted them and grew no worries
Thank you for the continuing and amazing saga of Jim. Appreciate you Pete for sharng this inspiring legend with all of us..
giving thanks n praise
Loving it. Thanks so much Pete you the man.
If it’s possible would be wonderful to see a video or two (etc) of Jim in Maine again this year!
Really look forward to these collaboration...keep it up guys... Really informative and encouraging. I always learn a lot of useful information. Blessings 🙏
💚💚💚
Hmmm I came back here this morning to thank a commenter for sharing his discovery of fungal wilt which I had to look up (verticillium wilt) because what he described is exactly what is happening to me. This was extremely helpful information for me to diagnose an issue I'm experiencing and his comment is gone. That is unfortunate as it was an eye opener and definitely changes my strategy moving forward.
Y'all really need to layover here in East TN on your way to Maine and back! 🐝 well Outpost Greeneville TN
You both have inspired me to care about nature and start my own garden. I am forever in your debts. Thank you thank you thank you both !!
You can do it!
mulberries 👌
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Plant a dense row of comfrey fence side of the perennials to block the torpedo grass 🤷♀️🙈🙉🙊👍
Love you guy's! I have learned so much from you. Super inspiring❣
LOVE your energy!
What a good pair!!
Soo interesting and informative!!!
🌻🌻🌻
Those sweet potato slips barely realized what hit them before they were in the ground again Jim 😂 I set aside double the time a Jim video takes..and watch again to take notes. I swear I've listened re: the compost tea (although I missed the 'flood it' memo). Hates perennials? Don't tell me Jim has a flaw ☺ Thanks Pete.
Good stuff and great tip on the mulberry picking.
Love these videos, thanks 👍
MULBERRIES he talked about
19:10 World's Best
19:24 Thai Dwarf
Hi j I'm I just love all the way you compost I love peas doing my own gardens by my self in south africa we dont have the compost that you get at all we got no place were they shred the green stuff can you think I do my in a big swimming pool and its laying for long time love it
Nice videos man! Thanks God bless.
Jim's genius is really ripening. I remember when you first started featuring Jim, I was like ok this is nice but I miss all the tips from Pete... but now I can see where you were going with this. I'm glad that you've kept up on these... I still have echoes in my head of your voice from years ago "pound for pound equal to chicken manure" "tithonia diversifolia"
I have Tithonia seeds germinating right now, for the first time, for this reason...🥰
@@loribroadfoot5023 Yay Lori! Did you also get the fackahachie grass with it to pile them on top so they don't dry out too fast? I loved his two step chop n drop
@@TheVigilantStewards I live on the prairie, I don't have to work at growing grass. I did buy a scythe, though...
Can you go over irrigation from his spring, summer, fall gardens?
Tip of the Day. Lift to pick, not pull 👍
Great tips! How does he keep the Sweet Potatoes over the year in FL? I am growing them this year. I did grow my own slips but from two organic potatoes in a jar of water. I got 44 slips from 2! Great pro-tip for the Mulberry picking. 😊
I always wondered why go the extra step to make actual compost tea...when you can be just as effective "in place" doing it the way that Jim does it...The Honey Couple would blend in well with several beekeepers in our state...great video once again :)
In a climate where freezing winters come (north KY) it changes the process of growing your own sweet potato slips - I'm thinking if I can utilize some whole potato that I've stored over winter, get them to sprout in spring, then it's as simple as that? I planted 800 bought slips this season but want my farm to be more self-reliant, thanks guys for this excellent content to be inspired from :)
Good my ldol
Feed your mangos stinker beer around roots and you will get a ton of mangos. Go to local bar and tell them to dump stinker beer.
Ahh JIm shaved the beard, I like it much better.
Love the pickaxe tip! 😊 Do you have any videos on keeping bees? Can you visit the The Honey Couple and see what they say?
You don't have millipede all through the mulch/compost/soil?
I did a similar mulching process and now have a millipede farm in my yard.
I have my apple tree growing for years now for the ' topworking' . I need scions for grafting but unable to source them. i need it in the UK.Thanks for any lead.
That was just great, just when I needed it. It would be interesting to know how much salt, c90, Jim is washing in. He's on the coast after all, so gets a good dose when it rains?
Always impressive! How do we get a hold of Josh Jameson for his kale plants?
Wondering... Jim makes compost tea/extract when laying down the mulch. He's identified his homemade compost as the keystone ingredient for great seedlings. Does he make compost tea from his homemade compost and apply it when he returns from Maine? Maybe this would help boost fertility a touch.
A simple way to make an extract, put a bag of compost in the washing machine on delicate.
Over in Hudson. Any chance you need a helper when come back down?? Keep.me posted. I grow Moringa.
Dude sounds exactly like Cricket from Always Sunny.
What a great video. I wonder why he hasn't tried the dwarf papayas?
I just found your channel...I have tried numerous times in raised beds to grow collards, Okinawa spinach, cranberry hibiscus....but the bugs are so bad and nothing takes.... I use my own compost as well....maybe you can do a video on controlling pests. Yours and Jim's all looks healthy. Great channel. Thanks.

Is Jim planting the sweet potato slips into the area that he had just sowed and watered the cowpea seeds? I assume the cowpeas are planted into a different area, although they could be planted together for a cover crop. 🌱
Together. The cowpeas help with nematodes as well as fixing nitrogen
I would be interested in Jim's self care regiment if that's not too invasive on his privacy. I too am a small scale farmer, but lifting all those loads, moving all that mulch, squatting, using your hands and body so much can leave you feeling pretty physically exhausted...and Jim looks impressively energized in these videos
I recall him talking about a time management formula he lives by in one of these videos. It was based on 4/4/4, and if I remember correctly it was four hours labor, four hours self-care (he talked about reading and journaling during that time), and four hours for others/giving back/community. Not sure which video it was because each one has so many nuggets of wisdom in them, it's not like it was a specific video topic, but part of the conversation. I also seem to recall he said he was pretty strict about it in order to keep balanced. I think about that when I'm pushing myself too hard, but still have a very hard time disciplining myself to be still and rest because there is always more to be done. But like he said, he's got everything pretty well dialed in. And that's because he has systems in place that he has developed over time.
@@manjawarner3162 thanks Manja! these pearls of wisdom are what I live for
Is that municipal mulch or is he getting it from somewhere else? What is c90? Our mangos also did not grow well this year as they typically do, not really sure why.
👍👍
