Love your videos! I'm growing garlic, peas, lettuces, scallions, beets, radishes, kale, onions, basil, arugila (rocket), cucumbers, and a new seed tray full of future winter flowers. I'm a fairly new gardener, and finding it so enjoyable! 😊 Much love from the USA, in zone 9b.
Yes, I want to see the other families of plants! Funny story: I bought some garleeks (a cross between garlic and leeks) at the grocery story just so I could plant them in my garden!
Never had any luck with beans or peas. They start to grow, they look amazing, we start to see the first flower, the first fruit... and then they die. Really sad. Loved your video, i am subscrbing.
I’d like to hear about growing berries. And also after summer planting winter veg. I’ve never had success with Brussel sprouts and I really would like to get it right. And I’m doing parsnips next year so any advice would be appreciated 😊
Yes please, would like a video on the other groupings. What I like about gardening is that it is a permanent learning thing, I have always liked learning. My gateway plant was (cherry) tomatoes, love those things, very easy for beginners. My next favourites are the chilies, which I grow in Kratky method hydroponics, so easy peasy. I tend to grow my cabbage in Kratky too, mainly because it is easier to net off more securely from my arch enemy, the cabbage butterfly, several years of working out the secured netting. I also do strawberries in Kratky. Most everything else is in soil, or raised garden beds. Capsicum and pumpkin are another two really easy ones for beginners.
Would love a video on how to set up an easy fertiliser routine. I get so confused and overwhelmed by what to use, when, how often, how much, what can be combined, what can't be.... its difficult if you have loads of different things growing to know every single need off the top of your head and looking at a wall of fertilisers in bunnings in confusing.
Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) was a favourite of mine growing up in California - nearly impossible to find in New Zealand (I haven't yet, except for frozen in a Japanese shop, not fresh). I haven't had a lot of luck growing them in the Taranaki region of NZ, which would be about zone 10b (similar to maybe Melbourne?). Any tips?
🍅 but would love some content on tropicals for cool temperate gardens down the track once you have covered the basics of fruit and veg as I’m a few years in and doing a pseudo tropical food forest out back. Love your content!
Me too. Just found out that you grow pumpkins and large tomatoes over winter because of fruit fly. I bagged all my tomatoes but the pumpkins were stung even before the flower opened. I will see what grows well next winter.
In one of your posts you asked for plant suggestions. What about bamboo? Good for mulch and canes for garden stakes. You can eat some but I think those are too big for a suburban garden.
You've got to be really careful with bamboo, if you get an invasive species you can ruin not just your own garden, but your whole neighbourhood. The rhyzomes can grow very aggressively
I always advise new Gardeners to start with Beetroot. When you can grow it well you can grow anything. The Beetroot talk to you during growth. ie wilt for water. My best is 2.2kg. We also eat the leaves. Baked fresh beetroot is deliciously sweet.
My second attempt at beetroot was a mini beetroot. It did not do well. The regular kind did okay, but the mice had a field day with it just before it was ready.
I'd love to get more info on growing veggies in pots, specifically what does well in pots and if you should fertilise.
Yes we want to see more! This is my new fave gardening channel, you and gardening Australia are the only content I make time for 😊
4 the algoritm!
Yes please, more vegetables by family!
Love your videos!

Great video. How did you make the tall frame with the white cloth cover in the back ground of this video
Longer bamboo stakes, 19mm irrigation poly pipe and bird net :)
