Nigel, your channel is the coziest I've found. Last time I felt like that was when sitting in the same room with my friends doing crafts: chatting, working with our hands and just chilling. Thanks for bringing this feeling back!
Instead of using tarp on your greenhouse Nigel, you can use bubble wrap on the inside. I am using that and it let 80% of the sun thru it. It also insulate a lot.
Nigel, you are going to have to put you a cot and blankets in the glass greenhouse. Looks like you are very happy in there. I am sure the trees are loving hearing you talk quietly keeping them company. Glad you are Covid free too.
It will be great to hear what kind of a difference the putty makes that you installed today. I just love seeing how much you are enjoying you glass greenhouse. You really did a spectacular job putting it together. It’s just beautiful!
So glad you didn’t get Covid….am a newbie to your channel and thoroughly enjoy all your videos…just trying my hand at succulent bonsai…am enjoying this chatting video too😁. Looking forward to your fall and winter work…
That was a great talk! The Covid flu definitely lucky not to get. Many of my family have had it go through their home a couple times now as there are no restrictions where they are. Kids bring it home from school. We have been lucky up where I am. Most cases are directly from travel. That greenhouse be great for meditating. The oxygen in there, calming trees help the stress.
Nigel - if you apply bubblewrap to the glass inside your greenhouse you will insulate it and it will hold it's temperature much better. This is common in the UK. Worth a try as bubblewrap is not expensive.
Nigel, I'm living in the appartment with 4 of my friends, they all had positive results for COVID and I had negative one, sometimes it works like this, don't know why
I’ve often wondered if pines and cedars grow in the winter. Sounds like they do, just much, much slower. That’s kind of cool to know. That they are very much alive and changing.
Oh! That's what frightens me! You're lucky you didn't catch Covid. They say double vaccination is not enough any more and we need a third shot for the highest level of protection. I remember my grandmother squeezing dough in the holes around the window frameworks of our old house in the village. Those good old days!
Wow, it is really amazing how many near misses I have had with covid, pleased 😀 you had an all clear. On another note I never knew about sugar in trees and frozen points, real interesting ,I guess liveing in the north island of New Zealand 🇳🇿 it more warm no snow just frost. Great to see the progress on the green house, would the mice chew the putty?
Hey Nigel!! I’ve been watching your videos for 6 years now! I had a question for you, where can I get turf-ace soil in bulk? I live in Florida and I think your mixturewould actually benefit the same down here as it does with you. Aeration and moisture locking. I’m tired of purchasing pre mix from people.
Yes vaccines really work. They are particularly important if you get infected after all; just about all cases in hospital care in my country are people without vaccination.
We are going to see Dune for the first time Saturday. I'm avoiding 3D, we were hoping to do IMAX but heard complaints about it in the Vaughan theatre we are going to. So standard showing it is!
I watched Dune at home the first time I watched it. The second I watched it in IMAX. I thought it was visually good. I found the story lacking. But, I enjoyed it. I’m a huge fan of the book, it’s hard to match that.
Hi Nigel, do you ever run into issues with insects in your soil? Such as worms, small flies, snails (I believe there are eggs in the soil and that's how they get there)? I moved some of my plants inside, and seems to be many in there. Especially now they're a bit warmer than outside. Nothing too major, so I just leave them but I can see this going out of control. Cheers I appreciate your thoughts.
Hello Alexander, I use a soil with no organic matter and get very few insect problems. I do get insects in my moss sometimes, but they usually don't touch the tree roots. My soil is 1/2 perlite and 1/2 SafetySorb (Fuller's Earth).
It is a radiator style plug in electric heater..... www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/noma-oil-filled-heater-with-wheels-white-0438416p.0438416.html?gclid=Cj0KCQjw5oiMBhDtARIsAJi0qk2bo7zgKCL4Hr97xmwJDAMrAbjBgiTDYMCH1ifHZR7j8mDpgfyH2kYaAkruEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds#store=103
Oh man, I hate 3d movies, it darkens the screen and it is not as crisp. I had to watch it again in non 3d after the initial viewing (bought wrong tickets due to the cineplex app being confusing)
I watched Dune also two times within a week. First time in the IMAX 3D and then just normal 2D because I wanted to analyze things and see what is actually happening instead of just enjoying the visuals.
Really nice having this "chat" with you Nigel. Was fun just listening to you chat

Nice listening to you, thank you for the talk! Stay safe and stay giving used materials a second life. Greeting from Belgium

Thanks so much Olga!

I have used bubble wrap pool heaters in the past and they work. Don't get colored bubble wrap.
Excellent thoughts on cold hardiness!
Your greenhouse truly is both a labor of love and a masterpiece. Thanks, keep growing
Always nice listening you chat with us during my lunch break
I really enjoyed the chat it's nice just listening to what's happening in your life.
Nigel, you are going to have to put you a cot and blankets in the glass greenhouse. Looks like you are very happy in there. I am sure the trees are loving hearing you talk quietly keeping them company. Glad you are Covid free too.
Yes, I spend way too much time in there!!!!
I was thinking a nice espresso machine or way to make tea 🤣 but those would take up room plants could use. 🌱
Cold day in the midwest. Very enjoyable to see you warm and cozy in the greenhouse. Cheers Nigel.
You have the patience of a saint to do all that kneading of the caulk. I wonder if the expanding foam would work also on sealing the joints.
Lovely chat Nigel! Glad to hear you’re doing fine.
Had this on in the background while I was WFH. Was like having company for a while when Nigel was sat in the greenhouse talking :)
Good idea, using the old putty. Keeping as much cold air out will certainly help keep things a little warmer.
Yes, every little bit helps!
Such a nice talk, thank you Nigel! My ficus trees never go dormant, not even with the 45° C of hot summer days. They are really like tanks
It will be great to hear what kind of a difference the putty makes that you installed today. I just love seeing how much you are enjoying you glass greenhouse. You really did a spectacular job putting it together. It’s just beautiful!
Thanks Barb, the greenhouse went down to 6 C last night while outside it was -1 C. The next few nights it will be -3 C, hopefully all will go well!
So glad you didn’t get Covid….am a newbie to your channel and thoroughly enjoy all your videos…just trying my hand at succulent bonsai…am enjoying this chatting video too😁. Looking forward to your fall and winter work…
Thank you for the cold hardy insights-loads of info to consider.
It was really nice just listening to you talking. I hope the putty works well :)
Would caulk work better than the putty? Just a thought. That would save you all that work with the putty.
Looks really great Nigel 👍🏻
Thank you! Cheers!

Its really Nice to get an early morning video. Having the worst time and this kind of distrakts me from it.
All looking very nice Nigel. Just a suggestion but you could put some clear bubble wrap around the back of your plants, against the glass.😀
The Emeralds are proud of - and warm in - their new Greenhouse address!
Did you notice the bonsai trees in Dune? They're not exactly in focus but it was nice seeing them. I was wondering who created those trees.
Nigel - if you apply bubblewrap to the glass inside your greenhouse you will insulate it and it will hold it's temperature much better. This is common in the UK. Worth a try as bubblewrap is not expensive.
Same fore me nice to hear you talk
Thanks R. T.!
Awesome video update
I like the color of your shirt
Nigel, I'm living in the appartment with 4 of my friends, they all had positive results for COVID and I had negative one, sometimes it works like this, don't know why
It's a glorious 4 degrees over here Nigel ..
I’ve often wondered if pines and cedars grow in the winter. Sounds like they do, just much, much slower. That’s kind of cool to know. That they are very much alive and changing.
For some reason, I guess it could be your calm voice. But for some reason, this was like the bonsai version of, "Lake Wobegon".
Very beatiful
SNEKS! putty SNECKS!
Snakes on a greenhouse, soon to be a major motion picture!
Those mutha putty snakes! 🐍
putting the putty in some hot water might help making it more knittable
Have you given any thought to placing bubble wrap-around normally the inside but the outside of your greenhouse.
that will certainly help close the crack nigel, good work and be safe!
I wonder if you heat the putty up and then use a rolling pin in helping you knead it together?
I actually pre heat the putty on the heater, it does help! Thanks Tom!

Wow a second video cool
But insects can also just fly through window that opens right?
Yes, I'll have to put up some screening to prevent this!

Yes, I really enjoyed the audio book that was on TH-cam, I think that was the best of both worlds!!
Nigel what is that tree on the right of the screen, the long leaf thanks,i think It's bought the label just says ficus.

Definitely the vaccinations that saved you! Congratulations! 😅
What kind of heater are you using in there?
It is a radiator style plug in electric heater.....

Oh man, I hate 3d movies, it darkens the screen and it is not as crisp. I had to watch it again in non 3d after the initial viewing (bought wrong tickets due to the cineplex app being confusing)
Yes, I likes Avatar in 3D, and Gravity, but those are the only two movies so far! Yes it does get darker in an already dark movie.
@@TheBonsaiZone I hope your imax experience will be good!
I watched Dune also two times within a week. First time in the IMAX 3D and then just normal 2D because I wanted to analyze things and see what is actually happening instead of just enjoying the visuals.
Cool, I'll be seeing it again tomorrow! I can't wait to get a Dune themed bonsai going!

What is this I read? It's Austin Mead in the lead, a foist for sure as a cat can purr!
