You guys should start a little chicken coop and get some laying hens! Kristi would absolutely love chickens. They have the sweetest personalities. And they are amazing for the garden.
Always love the bloopers added in at the end! Look forward to more content, content that makes YOU happy to make. I love all YOUR creative content. Look forward to the next.
The beauty is it's never a waste when you've grown fruit/veggies yourself! It will just go back to nourishing the soil for next year 💕 Love you guys and this channel so much!
I live in Florida, and sweet potatoes grow ferociously, but I really struggle with squash. Everywhere has is pros and cons. Your garden did great! I wish you Abundance next year. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄
Be glad to see you whenever you upload! Have to tell you, I made your rice and bean recipe. It was the BEST ever! I was skeptical because of the length of cooking time, but it was perfect. Thank you!
Beauty isn’t just makeup. You have shown so much beauty on your other channel that has nothing to do with makeup and I have loved your transition to mom and I think being true to that is beautiful too 🥰 can’t wait to see more on whichever you post to! Merry Christmas!
When you guys started this channel I was like “omg I would love to be able to do that” and here I am 3 years later newlywed and I just moved into a home with a garden and the weather is very warm here so I can’t wait to plant sweet potatoes! I’m going back to rewatch your starter videos!!
I just wanted to share a little story with you guys. One of my most favorite human beings passed away in March she had been sick for a long time and we shared TH-cam videos as a way for us to say hey you I was watching this and thought of you. Kristi your videos on your main channel were some of her absolute favorite. We celebrated and cried when you shared you were pregnant we cheered when you had your collabs and the two of us absolutely love this channel. She never wore makeup she watched because she enjoyed you Kristi. She struggled with Migraines that turned out to be a larger symptom but she would send me a link and tell me how much she wished she could take your pain but how amazing you were for still doing the things. You once replied to one of her comments and you had a small back and forth with her and she was so excited and sent me screenshots. Watching and enjoying this made me miss her a bit but also brought me so much comfort. We’ve both watched all of your gardening adventures from the raised beds in the old house and the growing seeds in your dining room and I just wanted to let you know that You Matter you brought her joy and comfort on hard days and today even in the missing her I can feel that joy and comfort too. 💜
Thank you both so much. When she first got sick she wrote out a Ghost bucket list of all the adventures she was going to have. I find comfort in the thought of her zooming around the planet checking in on all of us. 💜 Happy Holidays.
I really hope she sees this comment 🙏 and knows how much she is appreciated and loved by so many of us! Wow, seriously brought tears to my eyes ♡ sending you love strength and hugs! I'm so sorry about your friend ♡
1st you need a pitch fork for potatoes. 2 have a separate garden patch for pumpkins, they are super spreads, 3 plants lots of carrots, potatoes, beans and cucumbers!
A good way to prevent cabbage worms without spraying is to use a garden fabric. I use the lightest weight version from gardeners supply along with their super hoops. It worked like a charm! I had zero damage to my cabbage this fall.
If you haven't already I'd suggest covering your beds with mulch like chips, leaves, straw, etc to protect the compost you put down and help build up the soil. :)
When I was stationed at JBLM the last 3 years, I planted garlic and onions in my pots I used for my summer garden and then covered them with straw and did that for a "cover crop". cover garlic more than onions. Worked great for me and I was still using my pots for food.
I had my first garden this year and I really appreciate these videos and enjoy watching them. Unless you've grown your own produce you really have no idea of the enjoyment you get when it's time to harvest♥️
I loved these most recent uploads. So neat to see you in this season of transition. I am so inspired by your marriage and your learning about gardening. Looking forward to future videos here.
Hey Zak and Kristie !!! Thankyou for the nostalgia today. My grandad turned his entire garden In London into a vegetable garden just like yours albeit much smaller scale because in tough times, that’s what you did. My grandad could grow anything and I mean, anything. He somehow made it work with the space he had and my childhood was spent pottering around helping him grow vegetables and fruit too. I just want you to know that the sort of life you are providing for your son is the memories that I absolutely cherish to this day. I learnt SO MUCH about growing your own food, how to respect the earth and how to reap the benefits of having clean, healthy food in your back garden. All I dream of one day is being able to do the same as soon as I get a house with a decent garden, I’ll be continuing the tradition of growing my own vegetables. Small tip for you, my grandad used to cover veggies that like warmer temperatures with straw. Especially sweet potatoes, he would cover the top of the soil and let the leaves peak out. It probably didn’t provided frost protection but he swore that it insulated the plant and encouraged it to grow more tubers. ❤ He also did the same with strawberries that he grew in the ground- surrounded the entire patch with copious amounts of straw. He told me once it helps keep the fruit off the ground, and the warmth helped the fruit ripen faster!
If you guys get into posting food you make with crops from the garden I would LOVE to see you experiment with cabbage steaks. I see them so much online and always think they look amazing. Love the video, love your land. Happy Holidays Sweet Life Family.
I have been following the rawbeauty channel for years and it just makes me so happy seeing this gardening video on this channel. I share the passion of gardening and it makes me so happy seeing this. I hope there's more videos throughout the gardening season next year 💕
Turn the pumpkins, watermelon and squash every few days to avoid them getting super flat on one side. There are also companion plants you can plant to help keep some of the bugs away, though I personally prefer raised beds so I don't have to bend over so much. lol And they're easier to keep the bugs out. Also eggshells and coffee grounds or pointy gravel are good for slugs as they hate uneven surfaces to travel over..
Your garden turned out great, thanks for showing us. I found this channel first, having no idea about your beauty channel! People love what you both do, glad you're doing more. ❤
I think it's only natural to switch focus as we grow older - time changes you as a person ❤️ Especially when you become a mom 🥰 So I'm happy to hear it - we grow up together. Real life sounds great! 👍🏻
It’s my understanding with potatoes is that you have to top them with more soil once the green tops are going well. Think it depends on how you grow them though too.
I found this channel before your makeup channel. Love all your content but so excited to see what's happening with the garden and the HOUSE! I want to see the finished kitchen! ❤️
Oh my GOD are you kidding me! The difference between when you moved versus now- ZACK? What happened to the quiet and shy guy that didn’t like the camera?!! This is so cool to see. Kristi, if you’re lost on what YOUR channel should be- it seems like this is the era for the “ours” channel. This is great!
Loved watching!! Inspiring can’t wait to do my garden again haven’t done it for a few years cuz my dad was growing plenty for all of us but with his passing just a few months ago I know he would want us to get back on the horse cuz my brother was never that person and I’ve always been more like my dad and very close to him, I miss him so much and know the pain will never go away so living in his honor is th est thing I can do for my dad/ best friend. Rip dad I love you so very much!!!
Love that for you! So happy to hear you will start uploading on this channel. I enjoy this content and I think your audience has likely grown up with you, I know I have! 💕💕💕
I live in Wisconsin and we finished gardening 2 months ago.. It was so comforting to watch this! 🌱(It's currently 6°F ❄ here) I miss gardening so much!
I'm a gardener learning and just a few tips. A natural pest control for slugs is beer. Put a little beer in containers and place them around your plants, the slugs are attracted to the smell of the yeast and climb in and then drown themselves(a little sad I know, but your veggies will thank you). 2 Always pick tomatoes when they turn yellow and allow them to ripen inside. My 2 cents worth😉
You guys are amazing! You’re doing so well at all of this! How cool to harvest all these veggies that you grew from scratch. Every year is just gonna be another learning opportunity too. You guys are already so knowledgeable about this stuff, it’s so cool to see. Inspiring honestly!
We love growing cabbage. My husband makes the dest krout and kimchi. The best for your gut health. Pickles, tomatoes, onions, basil (for pesto). For pesto year round we make the pesto, freeze it in ice cube trays and then vacuum seal and put in the deep freezer. We make fermented hot sauce and fermented sliced jalapenos. So nom. Love your garden. Love the both of you. Sending good vibes from the other side of the mountains. Finding Washington tubers is so fun.
Such a crazy day today....then a Zack and Kristi video comes up and suddenly like magic, everything is ok again. I sometimes wonder if you know your effect on others....you guys are just the best and I adore you both! 🤗🤗
I originally subscribed to your beauty channel back in 2016. Honestly I really truly love your life and homesteading content more than I ever cared about the makeup aspect. I also really love watching your dynamic with Zack.
Lol. My gardens been done for months. This is not a bad harvest. At all. Besides that, you fucking did it. You planted a garden and reaped the rewards. Everything else is an opportunity to learn. Thank you for including the learning experiences aka "fails"!
Such a relaxing fun video! If you're looking to do more corn next year, I read in a book called "braiding sweet grass" that corn + green beans + squash make a great little self sustaining ecosystem!
I just love you guys! These are such enjoyable, chill videos and I think you're two of the most likable people. I'm not normally a person who would follow an "influencer" kinda couple but I think you two are like, anti-influencers. If that makes sense. Just real-ass, cool people doing things I would love to be doing! It's awesome to vicariously enjoy your gardening experiments!!🙌
You didn't do anything wrong with your sweet potatoes they just require a really long growing season. I'm going to start slips indoors in early April this year
I’m SO EXCITED for more of this kind of content!!! Growing older I’ve lost the ambition I once had for makeup, and now just focus more on every day life things. So I love this!!! I miss your guys faces in my weeklies 😁
Your garden 100% successful!!! Honestly! Everything goes towards learning for next time, AND since you’re sharing your experience, others can learn & share & everyone wins! How amazing is nature?!
Yay for The Sweet Life! Who needs makeup? Sure it was my introduction to you, but I watch you for so much more than that now. And let's face it, The Sweet Life of Zach & Kristi does have more Zach, so like I said, who needs makeup? 💕💕
So my mom grew the sweet potatoes in the bag of soil so you can dump the bag at harvest and get all the potatoes out. So she didn't have to dig. Because you need to dig/turn the soil to get them out. Also I live in OK and we successfully grew them every year from a store bought one we let sprout on the counter..
You can hand pollinate corn. It should be done between 9 and 11am each day after the dew dries for a week as soon as you see silks emerging from the ears. On the top of the stalk is the tassel that contains the pollen. Snap off a couple and use it like a feather duster to dust the silks of all the ears. Start at opposite end of row each day for more even distribution. Sometimes in smaller crops, it's harder for them to pollinate if there's no wind or it's too rainy because they aren't all rubbing together in the breeze because there aren't enough of them. So if you hand pollinate, you'll fare much better. Each silk is a kernel of corn so get them all. lol You can fold them back from the middle and get it in there if that helps.
Hi Zack Hi Kristi 🤗 you did an amazing job on the garden last year ..can’t wait to see what you grow next year . I adore your little hobbit shed it’s beautiful, I imagine you building a little hobbit play house near your home with little furniture for your kiddo to play on oh and your puppy 🤗🥰. It’s great to see you take care of each other x
I have grown vegetables for many years and sometimes things just don’t work out. We had probably 20 to 30 cantaloupes this year and they all had zero flavor because we got too much rain at the wrong time. You guys are doing great!!
I could watch hours of this 🥹 or anything you put out! You're such a comfort creator ❤️❤️❤️
I don't care what channel you upload on, Kristi (and Zack)! I'll watch whatever content you decide to post. Lots of love from a Coeur d'Alene viewer.
Thank you for the support!
Same! A Boise viewer 😘
Snap!
Yes me too.
Same!!!!🎉
Wherever you are. I am !! Love the honesty about you !! So fun. And so happy
THIS is raw beauty. beautiful humans being beautiful humans, doing the beautiful things that make them shine brighter and kindles their souls. 💙
Great subtle I love you man reference 😂
You guys should start a little chicken coop and get some laying hens! Kristi would absolutely love chickens. They have the sweetest personalities. And they are amazing for the garden.
Always love the bloopers added in at the end! Look forward to more content, content that makes YOU happy to make. I love all YOUR creative content. Look forward to the next.
You seem so much happier with this. 😊
The beauty is it's never a waste when you've grown fruit/veggies yourself! It will just go back to nourishing the soil for next year 💕
Love you guys and this channel so much!
I keep saying, "Man, if only they had chickens!" Amazing food for chickens & they would help turn those beds over & fertilize them.
I live in Florida, and sweet potatoes grow ferociously, but I really struggle with squash. Everywhere has is pros and cons. Your garden did great! I wish you Abundance next year. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄
Be glad to see you whenever you upload! Have to tell you, I made your rice and bean recipe. It was the BEST ever! I was skeptical because of the length of cooking time, but it was perfect. Thank you!

Dried egg shell’s crumpled around the base of the plants help a lot with slugs and snails. It does need to be reapplied every so often.
When you guys started this channel I was like “omg I would love to be able to do that” and here I am 3 years later newlywed and I just moved into a home with a garden and the weather is very warm here so I can’t wait to plant sweet potatoes! I’m going back to rewatch your starter videos!!
That's so lovely to read. I wish you all the best and great success in growing your sweet potatoes!
I very much prefer this channel....I love watching you guys homesteading...it's more true to you and I'm obsessed with your property....love you guys!
Volunteers are always the best harvest
I just wanted to share a little story with you guys.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I really hope they see this. Anyone reading this please comment so it stays on top of the feed!
1st you need a pitch fork for potatoes. 2 have a separate garden patch for pumpkins, they are super spreads, 3 plants lots of carrots, potatoes, beans and cucumbers!
All very good advice! We will be planting way more of everything next year. Going to do a whole pumpkin patch too
@@zacks.4655 super cool you can plant all those peppers. I’m in Canada and I would need a greenhouse, it’s just not hot enough.
A good way to prevent cabbage worms without spraying is to use a garden fabric. I use the lightest weight version from gardeners supply along with their super hoops. It worked like a charm! I had zero damage to my cabbage this fall.
I want to see what brings you joy! It doesn’t matter !! The light you bring on YT is YOU! Your humor , your candidness, your family . Anything!
Yes!!! Seriously these videos calm me down and bring me happiness when I really need it. Thank you ❤
Love the content ❤️ I'm starting to look for a homestead and this is right up my alley.
If you haven't already I'd suggest covering your beds with mulch like chips, leaves, straw, etc to protect the compost you put down and help build up the soil. :)
Wow,the deduction for your family, fans, and land amazes me
Make tons of videos for this channel! This is the content I've been waiting for.
When you started this channel i was so happy because this is my favorite type of content. Real life, homey, outdoors and I’m excited for more content.
When I was stationed at JBLM the last 3 years, I planted garlic and onions in my pots I used for my summer garden and then covered them with straw and did that for a "cover crop". cover garlic more than onions. Worked great for me and I was still using my pots for food.
I had my first garden this year and I really appreciate these videos and enjoy watching them. Unless you've grown your own produce you really have no idea of the enjoyment you get when it's time to harvest♥️
These videos are so calming. I love how positive you both are and how sweet your energy is. Thank you for sharing this with us. 💜
I think you did great. Gardening is like a full time job. You learn as you go.
Lol see you on another time I Love you man is the funniest movie ever!!
What a wholesome charming fucking video. I dig it
Sweet potato, french fries are the best! We love growing, sweet potatoes. Thanks so much for sharing!
I loved these most recent uploads. So neat to see you in this season of transition. I am so inspired by your marriage and your learning about gardening. Looking forward to future videos here.

I love the garden for you! Your garden!!! Everyone should have one.
I think it's only natural to switch focus as we grow older - time changes you as a person ❤️ Especially when you become a mom 🥰 So I'm happy to hear it - we grow up together. Real life sounds great! 👍🏻
As a person who found you through the makeup channel, it is shocking to me how much I love this content as well!
It’s my understanding with potatoes is that you have to top them with more soil once the green tops are going well. Think it depends on how you grow them though too.
I love the bloopers at the end 😂😂
This video makes me happy. I find myself smoking the whole way through.
I love planting videos , so relaxing and motivating
I have always loved the bloopers at the end of your videos on your other chanel. So glad you also have them here!! 🥰
Dwight would be proud 🥹
Missed you guys!
Just a tip! Sweet potatoes grow from slips. You get these when you let the original sweet potato sit in water and grow some leafy greens!
Can plant sweet potatoes and grow like houseplants to get slips. Just take a vine cutting and root it in water.
Also sweet potato leaves are edible. Get more harvest that way.
I found this channel before your makeup channel. Love all your content but so excited to see what's happening with the garden and the HOUSE! I want to see the finished kitchen! ❤️
I am so happy this channel is up and running again! ❤️
Oh my GOD are you kidding me! The difference between when you moved versus now- ZACK? What happened to the quiet and shy guy that didn’t like the camera?!! This is so cool to see. Kristi, if you’re lost on what YOUR channel should be- it seems like this is the era for the “ours” channel. This is great!
Both you and Zack bring us such joy, keep it up, we will follow you whatever the channel may be.
Shallow bowls of beer then put them ground level. Great slug catcher!
Hey y’all! My papaw always said switch between soybeans and corn every year! Or plant them together! The nitrogen from the soybeans make corn thrive.
Woohoo!!! You guys are back!!!! Thank goodness 😅💗🌿🍂💗🌿🍂💗🌿🍂💗🌿🍂💗🌿🍂
Yesssss! My faves post on my Birthday!! Get in! 🥰🥰🥰🖤 xxx

That's what we want to see whatever u want to post and whatever day u want to post
We love growing cabbage. My husband makes the dest krout and kimchi. The best for your gut health. Pickles, tomatoes, onions, basil (for pesto). For pesto year round we make the pesto, freeze it in ice cube trays and then vacuum seal and put in the deep freezer. We make fermented hot sauce and fermented sliced jalapenos. So nom. Love your garden. Love the both of you. Sending good vibes from the other side of the mountains. Finding Washington tubers is so fun.
Yayy I’ve been checking both channels for an upload! Idk where it’s posted or what it’s about, I will watch!
Would have loved to see a shot of the final harvest bounty! You guys did such a great job with your garden.
Such a crazy day today....then a Zack and Kristi video comes up and suddenly like magic, everything is ok again.
I sometimes wonder if you know your effect on others....you guys are just the best and I adore you both! 🤗🤗
Love seeing how much Zack’s confidence has grown in front of the camera. ❤😊
I originally subscribed to your beauty channel back in 2016. Honestly I really truly love your life and homesteading content more than I ever cared about the makeup aspect.
I also really love watching your dynamic with Zack.
Love your garden! Can’t wait to see what you guys plant next 🌱
Lol. My gardens been done for months. This is not a bad harvest. At all.
Besides that, you fucking did it. You planted a garden and reaped the rewards. Everything else is an opportunity to learn. Thank you for including the learning experiences aka "fails"!
Such a relaxing fun video! If you're looking to do more corn next year, I read in a book called "braiding sweet grass" that corn + green beans + squash make a great little self sustaining ecosystem!
I’m so excited you have made this channel. Here for you no matter the content!
I just love you guys! These are such enjoyable, chill videos and I think you're two of the most likable people. I'm not normally a person who would follow an "influencer" kinda couple but I think you two are like, anti-influencers. If that makes sense. Just real-ass, cool people doing things I would love to be doing! It's awesome to vicariously enjoy your gardening experiments!!🙌
I'm so beyond thrilled & excited about this new transition 💚 Mostly, I'm happy that you'll be happier 😄
More vids on sweetlife?! That is the BEST news evvveerrr. I love this channel! ❤❤❤
You didn't do anything wrong with your sweet potatoes they just require a really long growing season. I'm going to start slips indoors in early April this year
Good to hear! We might do the same for 2023
Loved every minute of this.
I love and watch all your videos but I'm not a big makeup person so I have to admit these lifestyle videos are my favorite. 💕
I’m SO EXCITED for more of this kind of content!!! Growing older I’ve lost the ambition I once had for makeup, and now just focus more on every day life things. So I love this!!! I miss your guys faces in my weeklies 😁
Your garden 100% successful!!! Honestly! Everything goes towards learning for next time, AND since you’re sharing your experience, others can learn & share & everyone wins! How amazing is nature?!
It is possible to grow a small amount of corn you just need to hand pollinate. I only grew 5 stalks last year and ended up with 3 really nice ears!
Yayyyyyy this is the content I’ve been wanting! 🥰
Yay for The Sweet Life! Who needs makeup? Sure it was my introduction to you, but I watch you for so much more than that now. And let's face it, The Sweet Life of Zach & Kristi does have more Zach, so like I said, who needs makeup? 💕💕
So nice to see you both again, looking forward to more content when it comes. Enjoy your holidays.
So my mom grew the sweet potatoes in the bag of soil so you can dump the bag at harvest and get all the potatoes out. So she didn't have to dig. Because you need to dig/turn the soil to get them out. Also I live in OK and we successfully grew them every year from a store bought one we let sprout on the counter..
Yay i lov that y'all are returning!!!
This video was just what my anxious mind needed. ♥️ Merry Christmas to your family.
We had a slug problem this year too. We tried beer traps, but they didn't clear up until we spread out some Sluggo.
You can hand pollinate corn. It should be done between 9 and 11am each day after the dew dries for a week as soon as you see silks emerging from the ears.

Great video…. Loved it ❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️
Garden & beauty are my two favorite genres of content. I love to see what you put out, no matter what stage of life you’re in. 💕
Hi Zack Hi Kristi 🤗 you did an amazing job on the garden last year ..can’t wait to see what you grow next year .
I adore your little hobbit shed it’s beautiful, I imagine you building a little hobbit play house near your home with little furniture for your kiddo to play on oh and your puppy 🤗🥰.
It’s great to see you take care of each other x
I have grown vegetables for many years and sometimes things just don’t work out. We had probably 20 to 30 cantaloupes this year and they all had zero flavor because we got too much rain at the wrong time. You guys are doing great!!
