    I just harvested my first strawberry after being inspired to grow them by you and other home growers.
    It was only the size of a nickel and pretty deformed but it was very ripe and delicious.
    It's really something else to eat something you grew yourself. Thanks for showing people that they can do it too.

    James I bought strawberries from the nursery and your channel is the first one I go to and the one I trust. You and Tuck do a great job helping us newbies know what to to!! ❤️❤️❤️

    I used to watch so many gardening channels and now I primarily just watch you & Tuck! Your channel is phenomenal and you may things look so easy in your beautiful garden. I ❤ the little guy and I’m so happy he’s doing better. Thank you for everything you teach us. If you ever have any tips on hot weather growing, I would love to see them, as I live in Wenatchee Washington and we have summers that hit out in our desert area that get to 116-118 in the summer. Again, thanks for the wonderful content, and I look forward to your videos every week.

    Hi James, your positive energy and passion are contagious! Your strawberries are amazing! Love your detailed instruction on planting on a cone, removing flowers, and everything in between! When we had the snowstorm in Texas, one of the things I really missed was access to fresh fruits and vegetables. We had some for a few days but then we blew through them in a few days. I had started several things from seed but nothing was quite ready yet. What you’re teaching, especially about redundancy and variety, is so important and meaningful.

    You should do one for planting for winter a lot of pro strawberry gardeners and even my aunt that has her whole back yard filled swears by planting them in early fall late summer to get them grown up to get the roots grown and ready then when they come to next spring they go crazy and I’ve seen it I’ve always planted in the spring but I’ve not always had so many but when I visited her house her plants where putting out so many more Barry’s per plant cuz her roots got set up earlier

    If you ever need wood chips, my husband is an arborist and they happen to dump near you. Well not too far at all, peach country to be exact. We’re in Camden county NJ, but he works in Gloucester county. Sicklerville/Turnersvill NJ. If you’re willing to meet up and bring your own collection bins, they will probably just give it to you.

    I planted Fairfax, a variety from the 1920s known for unsurpassed flavor. They're relatively small, soft, incredibly juicy, and almost purple in color. They're impossible to ship any distance and if you put them in a basket the ones on the bottom get squashed very easily so they've practically gone extinct. I hope the chipmunks let me have a few this year (they don't fall for the red-painted rocks trick).

    James, have you done a video showing how you laid out your garden, like an on paper type of thing? What is your tree spacing in the old garden etc. I have watched a ton of your vids and have been attempting to do it by watching your vides and tracking where things are planted etc but just can't figure it out. I know you are busy with everything, and that a video going over that isn't really your style, but I would appreciate it as I am planning the layout of mine. Production might be higher in an orchard type rows setup, but I'm not sure I would like how organized that would look. Regardless, your vids are awesome, keep up the good work.

Just wondering, have you ever seen the video where Paul Gautschi talks about how at the end of the season he covers his strawberry plants with wood chips and the next spring only the healthiest plants push up through the wc's and the plants that didn't survive just become living fertilizer for the soil..... Your strawberries look absolutely amazing !!

    How thick are the wood chips in your strawberry patch? How do the shoots reach the soil thru the wood chips to multiply? Did you use the mykos when planting? Thanks for sharing your favorite varieties! God Bless you, Tuck and your family James.

    Your energy is contagious. I would like to grow strawberries. I live in the tropics. Do you think it will grow?

    Dear Brother, I am watching you from Cambodia ( Date:28. May. 2021 ) learned something new from you.

    The runners are why strawberries are so easy to propagate. In my garden I started out with a box of just 6 plants. I let them propagate with runners, and the next year I had all the strawberries I wanted: Over a hundred plants.
    Strawberries spread like weeds. But they are a lot easier to control due to their small root system.

    Perfect timing. Was just eating a handful of strawberries and thinking how I wished I'd planted more of them. This will help me get ready for all the strawberry plants I plan to welcome to my backyard food forest this next year. Haven't watched it yet but am going to right now. :)

    I hate monetisation of popular channels... I really don't want to buy stuff, I just need your advice... thank you for that and love watching your channel.

      I hear ya Kath, but all the content is completely free, it’s just for people who want to contribute. It takes A LOT of time and work to make the videos and I invest in getting good cameras, editing software, mics, stands, etc.
      You would be surprised how many hours it takes to make one good video.
      Thanks for watching and for your opinion 🙏😁

    My Maxim strawberry plant has finally grown it's first flowers. I planted it last year so now the roots are established. I'm excited to see how many I get. I even have 5 more coming!
