    Aaron, your comment to Laura “just do you.” Is the definition of LOVE! Bravo to both of you for demonstrating what love, honesty, kindness, great work ethic, and positivity is supposed to look like.

    I probably wouldn't have chosen 'Garden Answer' at the beginning either, but it's the perfect name for what you've become. I don't know many other channels that spend as much time as you do - between your main channel and your highlights - actually answering so many of your audience's real garden questions. Thank you so much.

Ain’t nobody on here has stopped watching and learning from you because your wearing a Black shirt and Jeans. 😂 I think most people probably think about you being comfortable. But watching you as long as we have, if your not comfortable, you would have already fixed it by now. 😉 You Do You! Stay true to yourself! All the best to your family. 💗

    We went to buy/dismantle a greenhouse for $100 off of marketplace. It was a score for sure. We arrived and there were quite a few wasps and little nests in the thing! The owner says “Let me go get my paint thinner!” WHAT? He proceeds to tell me that in his college days he painted houses and they put cups of thinner around and it ran off the wasps. Sure enough he poured it into a large solo cup and walked in with it and away they went. The fumes will kill them and they just scatter! 5 minutes later, no more wasps! That tip alone was worth the $100!!! And I got a little green house too!!! ❤️❤️😜

    I love that you don’t fuss over your clothes and just focus on the endless tasks at hand. To aid in your defense, people who have mentally demanding jobs (CEO’s, world leaders, etc) may simplify their wardrobe just so it’s one less decision needed to be made. Don’t bog the brain down with clothing options, save it for more important decisions for the garden or decorating the Hartley. 🙃

    Hey Aaron, I totally get the mispronounciation or misspelling of your last name. My great-great-great grand father's last name was Lebouthillier (we are a French-Canadian family) but because he had a business and was dealing with anglophones a lot, he changed his last name to Butler to make it easier for his clients to pronounce! And every child/grand child ever since has had this last name. Who knows, maybe we are cousins many, many times removed! Thank you to both of you for being so inspiring.

    Congrats to the winners of the Hoselinks. Love the recap video's., seems alot of Chlorisis going on in gardens outside of just yours Laura & Aaron. Thank you as always for the great information. I am dealing with acidic soil, from pine trees and also I have beach sand, we are near a bay, wish I could say I our house is on the water, but we are not. .some areas the soil is red, nearly clay color from high iron.....we all seem to have struggles if not with insects, soil.. finding balance of healthy for our landscape to be happy & thrive.. Thank you 😊

    Wow! Pausing the video to say *thank you for the warning* about the augers! I had never seen them before seeing them on your channel and have been wanting one, but am honestly not as strong as I once was😒. Maybe I'll get a small one and practice with that first. So glad to hear this realistic warning. Thank you!

      Yes, Beth, be careful especially if you have heavy clay soil or have a lot of roots. I injured my wrist badly and it was a small auger.

    • @bethk1402
      @bethk1402 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@d.wheeler3652 Thank you for pointing out that the smaller ones are not necessarily safe either. We do have a lot of clay. Where we used to live we also had clay and soil that was quite compacted. I ended up getting a thing that looked like an enormous flathead screwdriver for our hammerdrill and basically jackhammered my first planting holes.

    Considering you are a mother with the two young children, a huge house and property - you are doing pretty good to have it all together for 90% of the time. Well done. It does not matter at this stage if you do not have the matching curtain on the chicken coop. Having said that - I am quite sure you will go upstairs now and find that other half. Love from sunny Sydney, Australia.

    Hi, Laura
    When I saw your glass of diet coke I just had to get myself a glass. We celebrated our 50 wedding anniversary last year on September 25th. WE did marry young 23 years old now on an estate with lots of retired people and 3 grown-up children and 3 grandchildren and my youngest son and daughter in law are expecting their 1st baby in August and to have another grandchild that I can hold once again. Thanks for your very interesting channel. Our seasons differ here in South Africa we are going into winter now and you going into summer. Our Autumn has been so wonderful with chilly mornings and evenings.
    Thanks once again for a super informative channel.
    Regards to you both
    Emma Gush.

    FYI! Amazing wasp killing trick: Use a pump sprayer (I use a 1 gallon) and fill it with water, add a dash of liquid dish soap. Pump it so the pressure shoots the water like 6 feet away from you, and then cover the wasp nest with it first thing in the morning before the sun warms the wasps to fly, or at dusk when they've returned to the nest. The soap does 2 things: plugs their breathing holes on their thorax and sticks their wings in place so they can't fly. All the wasps are dead within 2 minutes. Then you can get the nest down without risk of being stung! I've taken out about 7 large nests this summer using this method.

    Thanks for the follow up on the chlorosis problems. I have been adding Irontone and soil acidifier to my hydrangeas, spirea and roses when I first saw problems last year in my new yard. It’s nice that there is a fast treatment when new problems pop up as they did with my Aronia just this week. I luckily found some 6% EDDHA yesterday for it at a local nursery and will be treating today, then adding it to the Irontone/soil acidifier regimen with the others from here on out.

    Relieved to hear about other people's problems w wasps. For a while I felt like nature was out get me. I felt discouraged about my place in gardening after a wasp attacked me stinging me 8 times, then I found a spider literally the size of my hand on my 🍅 plant making a nest that then hatched dozens of tiny spiders. Tell your Dad he is not alone in his fight with wasps, they sting me too!

    Good afternoon, Laura 🍹 Would you consider cutting the bottom out of the plastic containers near the chicken coop for the topiaries? This way, the illusion would be potted but the topiary can root in. 🤷🏼‍♀️😊

    Laura and Aaron I don't understand some of your viewers go to far with their questions like Tumor Does WHO CARE WHAT YOU WEAR WHILE GARDENING?? AND WHO CARES IF YOU GARDEN IN THE HIGHT OF THE SUMMER HEAT? As my mother says " you give a person a inch they take a feet. Tunie Does and other viewers who get the nerves to ask such personal questions should be ashamed of themselves. Stick to gardening questions and stop asking personal questions. That is so rude and so bold faced

    Container Veggie Gardening: Greens, including Swiss Chard, and Carrots do great in containers! I’ve grown tomatoes in large containers with great success. Flowers of all kinds. Herbs, grow like weeds, anywhere! I just learned of/bought seeds for a Bush Okra. Potatoes are great in 5-gallon pail size or bigger. This year I’m trying sweet potatoes. The better question might be, what CAN’T grow in a container? The biggest concern is in containers, you grow what you can eat fresh. It’s hard to grow enough to preserve.

    I just want to comment real quick on the drill/auger. I also purchased the fancy new DeWalt Drill (cement, e-clutch) Drill with multiple Augers just a couple of weeks ago. Aaron mentioned that it's heavy & I will agree with that. Just the drill is 6# then you add the battery & auger & oh my goodness. It's a beast, makes me sore however that's fine with me. Anything in the garden with a little pain means my job is so much easier. I've been using augers but I wanted the ability to use big ones. I will say I'm 70, feel old only when I garden. If I can handle that drill/auge,r I think other women can. Just be prepared.

    Do you mind if I ask a question off subject?
    I purchased several packages of bulbs to plant this year. Unfortunately, I became ill and did not get to garden at all. My question is, will the bulbs be okay to plant next year? If they are, what treatment do they need until planted? Things like where should I store them, what do I need to do for/to them?
    Apologies for being off subject. Thank you

They are so thin and viney, any tips? Keep braiding the vines and stake it maybe?

    I feel y’all when you talk about the humidity. I live in north central Florida, zone 9a. And I used to live in PA, and it was humid there as well. But Lawd, when you walk out of an air conditioned house during the summer, just getting to the car you deflate! And then your just waiting for the air conditioning in the car to hurry up and cool down the car. We get average 50 inches of rainfall a year. And ironically it’s feels nicest on a rainy summer day, until the sun comes out and then your melting again.
