      Yes it is, we are beekeepers and had 44 hives last year but they all were lost. A lot of fellow beekeepers lost all of their hives or 50% of them. This is a very serious issue and very concerning.

    Good information, thanks. But I wish you hadn't filmed in the shade. It made it really hard to see what you were doing with your pruners. Question: I have sage sprouting all over, several feet from the parent plant. Seems to be connected by runner roots. Will pruning the parent plant create even MORE babies? I feel like my sage is out of control.

    Could you make another video with better lighting or in the sun, with a huge sage plant--four feet across--never pruned? Maybe close in on your hands and the plant branch you're cutting. Underneath my Sage is piled with dead leaves. New growth all along every branch. You said:, "Anything else on the wood is what I would cut." At 3:24. I'm not sure what that means. Do you have a video of "how to prune a seven-year-old Heather, never pruned (doesn't flower until late August)? If so, link? BTW My Rosemary plant turned into a Christmas tree.

    That was very helpful, but it was all in shade and I couldn't see the actual plant. Plus you need to zoom in closer to the plant to show where you are cutting. But very informative and I thank you for that. 👍😁

    Very good and easy to understand video, thank you. Now I know to look for the new growth.
    Sage is amazing for getting rid of heavy metals in the gut, eating 1 or more raw tablespoons of it a day is best. That information comes from Anthony William the Medical Medium.
    I actually now put sage in my guacamole, this is my recipe,
    1 avocado, 4 or more cloves raw garlic, 1 medium raw onion, 1 lemon juiced, a little Himalayan sea salt to taste , 1 to 4 tbsp fresh herbs, and chilli peppers to taste! Since you took the time to share your time with me I wanted to give you a little of mine. 🤗 blessings to you.

      @GreenThumbGardener  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      🌿🪴 Hey @robbiesecker1859! Sage is pretty tough and can handle a trim early in the season. Just make sure to wait until any hard frosts have passed. As for the lilacs, try adding some compost or fertilizer to give them a boost. You could also play around with companion planting and adding some colorful annuals nearby to really make them pop. Good luck and happy gardening! 🌸🌼

    • @GreenThumbGardener
      @GreenThumbGardener  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you for your feedback, Dennis! 😊 I apologize if the shade obstructed the view of the bush. To answer your question, the ideal time to cut down the bush will depend on several factors such as the particular species of plant and your climate. For most shrubs, it's best to wait until after they've finished blooming to avoid damaging future growth. 🌸 It's essential to research the shrub thoroughly to find the best time for maintenance. I hope this helps! 🌱👍

    I appreciate your time and effort to share how to's, but your video was really disappointing. First of all, you didn't share what time of year was best, to cut back the Tx Sage. Then, I could see anything that you were doing, because of the shade that you and the plant were in. It would have been nice for you to be able to zoom in on the actual cutting. I hope I haven't insulted you in my concerns. Just wondering if anyone else had the same thoughts.

      👋 Hi @caroleccagley214, thank you for your comment and feedback! We appreciate your thoughts and will definitely take them into consideration for future videos. As for your questions, it's important to harvest vegetables when they are mature, usually when they are firm and brightly colored. Depending on the type of vegetable, the best season to harvest can vary. For drying, it's best to choose healthy leaves, and discard any that are diseased or damaged. Timing and technique for drying can also vary based on the type of vegetable. We'll definitely try to cover this information in more detail in future videos! 🌿🌱🥕
