This year has been tough in Phoenix. Hot summer led to pest problems. The fall took forever to cool down, so plants that would normally thrive were not doing as well and not setting fruit when they should. On the plus side, the warm winter is prolonging fall season and it looks like frost may not be a problem at all this year. Last year I had frosts in November.
Oh yaaay! Im excited for the spring garden season dead ahead. Broccoli and beets and carrots are flourishing in my winter garden. Time to plant up seeds for spring! I wish there were a garden planning guide like yours for Central california, we are weird here.
Hi! I just discovered your channel earlier this year and love it! I garden in Greenlee County, Arizona but travel to the valley often for work. I can sometimes be gone for a week or two at a time so it can be tough when I’m not home to maintain my garden. Any tips for keeping my garden alive and thriving while away for stretches of time is greatly appreciated 😅
You are so helpful and appreciate all your knowledge sharing. These videos are especially helpful living in AZ. Most plants do not do well in our heat and it is nice to get confirmation what plants are best having watched and subscribed to your videos before.
Thank you so much for these monthly updates, they're invaluable! Do you have any recommendations for planning for an extra hot summer after the very warm and dry winter we've been having?
I wish you would do a seed starting video. My Korean mom watches your videos and thinks these videos mean she should plant the SEEDS not the starts you already have growing.
Have 3 vertical stack-able towers that I got recently for free, planning on going to the worm farm in the morning, do I get the raised garden bed mix or something different?
Starting the year off in the organic garden is refreshing! Everybody needs to Seymour Green this year!
What a wealth of knowledge. Thank you for all your hard work making this video. I took so many screenshots
I'm so glad you found it helpful!

I lived in Fresno for a couple of years. Central California is beautiful. Best of luck with your garden!

Drip irrigation / watering grids and mulch are crucial. That can help keep things going while you are away.

I'm always learning, too.

I'm leaning into cover crops next summer for sure. th-cam.com/video/mhDpjhGstyM/w-d-xo.html

Any tips on how to adapt these plans and dates to a slightly higher desert like Graham County?
I wish I did. I need to look into that. My best answer for now is to check with your local extension office and see if they have guidelines for you.
Happy New Year, Angela!! I would like to get more fruit trees. Where do you recommend getting them from in the East Valley?? Thanks in advance!
I like Greenfield Citrus Nursery, RSI Growers, Arizona Worm Farm
@ Thank you!
Thank you for always sharing some helpful tips! Greetings from the Philippines.
You're welcome! Enjoy your garden.
Have 3 vertical stack-able towers that I got recently for free, planning on going to the worm farm in the morning, do I get the raised garden bed mix or something different?
I used the raised bed mix in mine.
@GrowingInTheGarden thank you! As well I assume just planting seeds won't work, I'll have to buy the transplants?
Happy new year! I live in east Mesa. What powder did you use before planting the roses?
Bone Meal
I think I missed the window to plant walla walla onions and spanish onion. Is it too late to start seeds indoors and put out in Feb?
Probably. If you can find transplants somewhere you could plant those.
Holidays are done and I’m ready to get gardening 👨🌾 🪴 Happy New Year!! 🎊
Same to you!
