This is the perfect topic for me! Thanks for sharing this. Would love to see an expansion on this topic! Love having a resource about local plants.

I have some newly planted apple trees and they have already started to produce however the apples are too heavy for the branches and is making it heavily droop. Should i remove the apples until older?

Just subbed. What fertilizer should I be using in the spring? Thx.

Do they need to be blanched or have a citric acid soak first? I'm very new at this and have only dehydrated a few things. Thank you. This was interesting.

Is crop rotation still necessary if planting intensively with a variety of vegetables? E.g. growing carrots, tomatoes, radishes, beans, and lettuce in the same raised bed

This is wonderful! I don't see the written instructions at your website, just this video - would you be able to please update the webpage with the step by step instructions?

Excellent information!

great information... you really have to space trees such as spruce or pine far enough apart.. considering how big the trees will be in 20 or 30 years 15 feet apart is overall better than 5 or 10 feet apart.

Beautiful and yes oce 💪💪💪💪💪 i nice ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Haha, no fair...share the recipe for the sour cherry BBQ sauce!

Noice! FURST!

Hi! I'm interested in growing haskaps in Alberta. I hope you guys could post so info about propagation.

Great learning experience!!

thanks - I learned a lot. Maybe you could do another video focusing on aphid control in greenhouses. A 10 acre greenhouse at Dauphin MB just started production of hydroponic tomatoes. And I know there are big ones at Olds AB and Medicine Hat. The Dauphin one has very strict biosecurity so maybe they can keep aphids out. I am going to try set and forget hydroponic lettuce in our sunroom this winter but aphids have been an issue in that room. Any tips ? John at Erickson MB.

excellent information. Thank you

Really great information, thank you. It’s not a tree, but this year I got rid of my barberry; the nurseries really promote them.

well done - great communication style. John in Manitoba

I got a Juliette cherry tree maybe a week or 2 ago and planted it yesterday. It's 1 year old and already has leaves. Should I prune it to look more like a tree? Or leave it so it's a bush? I live in Halifax, NS. There is so much stuff I find online but most others were saying prune the inward branches, prune here so more branches come out, cut the top so it splits, etc. But here the bush shown looks like it's super wild, not a tree but a bush :( Any tips would help, please

What do you use for the “floating row cover?”

Are the blue containers food safe. And if so where can they be ourchased

Where can one buy the blue growing bags

thanks Justin. I watched a U of S video (not this one) and have 4 on the go and doing very well. They are in 1.3 kg metal coffee cans (each hold 2 litres) with a half tsp of 20 20 20 and 10 ml of vinegar. Our water is about the same as Saskatoon (pH 8) and the recommendation is that lettuce likes it on the acid side. Sharon is concerned about metal leaching from the cans and getting into the lettuce so will likely switch to plastic. Folger coffee cans are suitable but they are red so there will be some light transmission into the solution. I would be interested in the variety you are using and whether you have concerns about algae. (We are U of S graduates from 1965 and are on the farm in western Manitoba) John.

Great tips!

oh give me a break with the safety glasses.

Sure is nice learning how to do certain things in a Saskatchewan video for us that live here. This was an excellent piece of information, thankyou!

thank you

I see you’re not responding to questions!

I have been meticulously using small stones, broken pottery, etc. to block the big holes in commercial pots, and prevent an anaerobic environment in the bottom of my containers! Your information about water is stuff I’ve never been exposed to over my lifetime. Sooooo interesting!! Not using gravel etc would certainly save me a lot of time and energy (bc I wash rinse and dry them before use 🙄😄). Will definitely start growing without and see if some things that don’t flourish start to more!

Thx for this post.

You forgot gloves🧤 Informative video thanks!

do you have to process the jar or will the vinegar just keep on a shelf?

When you mentioned that all seeds available to gardeners' are NON GMO - can you please explain what does it mean? Thank you

I am not disputing what you say but I am curious to know why we have a different experience with the raised wicking beds we use. They are constructed using a rubber membrane to line them and then use a 5 inch layer course rock on the bottom covered then 15 or 16 inches of soil separated by landscape fabric. Water is directed into this water reservoir through perforated drainage tile which feeds from one top corner of the bed down into the rock and diagonally to the opposite corner. A drain located at the top of the gravel prevents the bed from flooding. We have grown a variety of vegetables very successfully for 6 years now with no problem of root rot. What is your take on this?

yeah, where's the final product?

We have about half a dozen 7-year old large haskap bushes that we either need to transplant or lose to building construction in the next few weeks. Any advice on attempting to transplant?

Thanks for the great, concise and informative video! Any chance you guys have done a video or could do a video for how to train the main central leader and scaffolding branches of apple trees during the first 5 years of growth (as discussed around 3:20 mark)?

Good information!

Should an Evans cherry be considered a tree or better grown as a bush patch (as shown in your video)?

Great video

Really enjoying the local content, keep it up!!

thank you for the knowledge

What is the best time of year to prune on west coast of Canada?

How long can bean seeds be reused? If kept in cool, dry area.

Do you use the cuttings for propagation of new haskap?

My first year using any grow lights for seedlings. What a difference compared to some of the seedlings that don't get under the lights as often as I planted way more seedlings than would fit under the lights.

Great advice about the clear plastic. Even one week extra growing time can be a huge difference in the fall.

Thank you! My bag of epsom salts will be used in the bath instead!

This is my first year of starting a perennial and annual herb garden. Looking forward to stocking shelves with beautiful and tasty "nature in a jar"! Thank you so much!

Can a spruce tree that is very damaged from flooding come back or should it be pulled and replaced?

The voles gerded my haskaps that are ten years old, will they recover as I pruned them completely off
