    That is so awesome how James can turn one contraption into a multi-purpose tool. James is a GARDENING BEAST!

    Tuck is a delight! I love the knowledge I learn from you, but Tuck has won my heart! Thank you for introducing us to him. I never knew of a veggie-loving dog before!

      All animals like real, fresh food .. problem is, most people have been dumbed down and brainwashed to only feed their pets manufactured pet food garbage .. which causes lots of health problems.

    Say bro, I have a 10 y.o. Yorkie also. Never thought I would ever have a small dog.....he's one of the best things to happen in my life. His name is T-Rex. 9 lbs of ornery monkey. Love him so much it concerns me.
    Thanks for the vids. The shade idea will help biggly in Texas. YeeeeHaaaaw, y'all.

    I just wanted to say thank you, for your fine videos. Im living in London, in an apartment with no garden. But thanks to a few channels like yours, since the pandemic started, and people started panic buying, I have gone from "Black Thumb - The Killer of Houseplants" to the guy who is self-sufficient in both green leaf vegetables and seeds. By utilising every window ledge, and a one metre square area of balcony, I now have basil, lettuce and spinach beat, growing all year round. I just ate the first cherry tomatoes I grew myself ever (and Im harvesting the seeds as per your video), 9 corn plants in good health, and even managed to grow some Finnish wheat grain which Im harvesting for seeds in the future. I might even manage to squeeze out some legit chillies from plants I grew from some chillies my neighbour gave me.
    As I keep telling people, I might not be self sufficient in "food", but Im damn near close to being self sufficient in micro-nutrients, vitamins and healthy fibre. If I had to live on noodles and empty calories for a year ... at least now I would eat well, enjoy it, and stay healthy, supplementing it with all the healthy stuff Im growing.
    Thank you. You have improved my chances of survival, and my quality of life. Not to mention its a damn satisfying hobby.

      Contre Viole 32 It was a joke. That’s all. Nothing deep or heavy about what I originally said. Seems like you are a little too sensitive to be in a gardening channel comments section. Tell your mom to turn on the adult filters so you will find more age appropriate content. Come back when you are mature enough to talk with adults. Have a good day sweetie. 😘

    Love seeing your little dog. Also enjoy your videos. I live in NH but my garden failed miserably. Everything bolted on me or was eaten by an animal. I am 72 and just learned to can a couple of years ago. Boy do I wish I could grow tomatoes like you. I think my 4 plants will yield 10 tomatoes. My broccolis bolted. I did get zucchini but that was it. I am zone 5b.

    I'm in 9a and it was 118F yesterday at my house. I have used shade cloth in the past - but hoop houses seem a good way to go now. I think I could rig them up with a mister system and extend my season a good bit.

    I really loved the hinged hoop house video. I though to myself that it would be easy to throw shade cloth over it later in the season. But it didn't occur to me to remove the top layer and use it elsewhere for two shaded beds! Clever, very useful. Thanks for the ideas and for both videos! I love how much you love Tuck. Wish everyone had that much love and respect for animals.

    I planted some brassica seedlings a few weeks ago outside (southern WI). It's been in the 80's, so I used my tulle fabric as a row cover. The frame is a piece of decorative garden fence that a neighbor was going to throw away. I just drape the fabric over it. I also strategically planted the seedlings so the cucumbers would shade them half the day. I also give the brassicas fish emulsion at least once a week and they're responding well. I know that it's not suggested to plant brassicas and cukes close to each other, but I fertilize often.

    I loved this video. I live in Texas where the sun is very intense. I grew mammoth sunflowers to help shade my garden but there time has come to an end. Next year I’ll trellis cucumbers and squash to help shade my garden. I’ll experiment with shade cloth with my tomatoes. It’s so hot that they are not producing. I’m just watering them so they can maintain until it gets cooler.
