- Welcome to my vlog channel and thank you so much for watching! I've been wanting to make a raised bed and grow fruits and vegetables in my garden...and finally did it! A lot of our neighbors are farmers and they give us vegetables they grow all the time so I'm hoping I can give my fruits and vegetables back soon!

Welcome to my vlog channel and thank you so much for watching! I've been wanting to make a raised bed and grow fruits and vegetables in my garden...and finally did it! A lot of our neighbors are farmers and they give us vegetables they grow all the time so I'm hoping I can give my fruits and vegetables back soon!
Looking forward to seeing your first harvest 😁Please make sure you get bird/animal safe netting!!
It is very sad seeing birds and other creatures getting tangled, hurt and killed by the wrong kinds of netting being used
Thank you for the video.
It's allways amazing to see, just how much effort goes into these projects.
I feel like a lazy person, my appartment doesn't get much sunlight and while I want to grow flowers and such, there isn't much that I can do here. 😭
It's just my opinion, but I think, just using the vegetables your neighbors give you, is already something you "give back". If I would grow more, than I can use and sell, I would be happy to know, that it's not going to waste. There is only so much you can use yourself after all. Seeing vegetable becoming bad, is rather sad. And knowing that the person I give those vegetables to, is a good cook, would make me rather proud.
And who knows, maybe they saw some of your videos and enjoyed the recipes you shared?😊
I can understand your view too, that you want to give something tangible back. Well, give it time, I'm sure it will come. (I really need to start to listen to my own advice... I'm rather impatient over something and need to wait too 🙃 I'm a lot less graceful about it, than you. I'm just glad, that noone seems angry about it)
The rised bed looks great. No wonder Haku likes it.
Well, I wish you a great harvest. 🥰
Lots of love from europe🤗
❤❤❤ I missed you all. Love you. Beautiful video and great building. Love Rachel laugh
I know the struggle of getting produce from neighbors and not knowing how to repay them, lol! I had a neighbor at my previous apartment who worked at a food bank and sometimes gave us fruits that the bank still had. I once turned some plums she gave into a plum cobbler. I had never made a plum cobbler before, only a cherry cobbler, but the ones she gave us were so sour, I figured baking them was probably the best use for them. I gave her a large plate of it and hope she enjoyed it. It tasted better on day two and beyond, once it sat in the syrup and became sweeter.
You could always give back to your neighbours with your cooking! I would make chutney and jams from the chilli and fruit my neighbour gave me! A great way to build community 😁
You know life is good when Jun uploads a new video
Life good
So true, so relaxing
I know life is good when I see a comment like this.
😂
Jun: "Alright lets go"
Haku: flops over
Quintessential cat behavior 😂
I've had the pink lemonade blueberries before, they don't taste lemonade-y per se, but they do have a sweet-tart flavor with a hint of lemon? They're really good! Hopefully your bush does well and you can try them for yourself 😄 Good to see the bed frame is Haku approved, too.
I've said it before, Jun and Rachel are the dream team; there's nothing they cannot do, and Jun, you and Rachel make it look effortless.
I hope you have a terrific harvest; how nice that you're slso thinking about giving back to your neighbours too!
Cheers from Southern Ontario 🇨🇦
I love that you built your beds! Just a suggestion for the future: Peat moss is a non-renewable resource and you could use multiple other materials like coconut coir, mulch/wood-based products, compost, pine needles, rice hulls, or leaf mold.
3:17 Haku: *"I have waited for you since yesterday, human-!!"*
We used coconut husk mulch for our vegetable garden this year too. It's making such a difference in the moisture level of the soil. It's great
Love this. Can't wait to see how the blueberries turn out. Especially those unique pink ones. It was so fun to see your kitty out on his harness enjoying the yard safely. What great enrichment for them!
That's super smart with the bricks underneath!!! And also the plastic inside to keep the wood fresh for longer
The garden is amazing and if I had a yard it would inspire me to plant my own veggie garden! 💕
Proof that Haku really is a normal cat:
*-After a nice warm walk-*
Jun: Okay I'm getting hot, lets head inside!
Haku: *-immediately lays down-*
Jun: *-walks ahead a tiny bit and tried to ps ps ps-* Come on baby
Haku: *-begins purring and flops-*
Jun: *-resigns himself to the heat and begins giving pets-*
I always love what they are showing us in videos: recipes, diy projects, home building and decorating. My husband and i are in the process of planning our own landed house. And i do included things like cat friendly house, big window for a lot of natural light, wooden interior and also lots of plants in the garden/yard.
So, thank you Jun and Rachel😊😊
every time you upload, it's pure wholesomeness and happiness.. these videos make me feel at peace in such a stressful world. thank you for your hard work!!
That bed came out really nice. One thing I thought of though, is that you can also use the frame to grow some climbing vegetables like peas or runner beans, which would give you more variety for the same area
That looks amazing Jun! Please give us an update as to how things grow! Highly recommend feeding those peppers ocean mix fertilizer once they start producing every 6 weeks or so. Also, since Rachel loves peppers, maybe dry them to make spices or ferment to make your own hot sauce? Super easy and delicious!
Glad you remembered to guard the blueberries! A long time ago, I was driving past a blueberry farm and a bird pooped on my window. They must have eaten a lot of blueberries because the poop looked like a bloodsplat! Scared me 😂
❤ I always wish we had a word for Komorebi. I love hiking and being outside under the tree canopy bc of this.
You both are truly kind and thoughtful people. Bless you, Jun and Rachel! Love all your content.
Love the new raised Bed! If you worry about birds you can hang some knickknacks which reflect light on the Frame. A CD or anything wrapped in foil. It worked for our blueberries and red currant, which i could also recommend if you wanna share some fruits with your neighbors. They yield so many fruit!
*pat pat* "please grow well" I'm going to do this to my plants now when I'm transplanting them. So sweet 🥹🌱❤️
Blueberries love acidic soil!! So make sure the soil around the blueberries has a low pH! Love you Jun!! You and Rachel's home is so beautiful!!!!
Nevermind you're on it!!!
Haku is such a cute and curious cat! ❤️
Man massive respect for the bird measures. Id probably try to throw together a scarecrow and call it a day lol
Oh, and blueberries LOVE WELL DRAINING SOIL so you might have to keep an eye on how much water they get where you've put them. Ideal place for them is on the side of a hill, but second to that is a somewhat rocky place, and not having that around, little watering sessions many times over one big soak and they do well, they do love water, they just don't want it all at once like that too often.
it's really neat that y'all have this space now to do what you want and plant want you want... some day I'll have something too
Love the garden content :)
You must have been good in school. Since, I have been watching, Rachel has taught you very well. She is your sensei and you wax on/wax off very well! Yay, Jun!
your garden is really shaping up nicely.
You guys living your best life!! Happy to see!! 😁
I am growing a garden for the first time this year. ❤️ I have a Japanese cucumber that taken off, and is producing like crazy. There are so many tiny cucumbers. I originally had it in a pot, but recently got a raised bed and large trellis for it. Earwigs have been nibbling on most of my plants (my poor peppermint especially), but this one seems to be surviving okay. I'm so excited! I love how the plants respond to love and care, and have their preferences. The Japanese cucumber apparently does not like water on its leaves, as it wilts when it's watered from above. So I bought a wand to water at its roots. 😊 I'm looking forward to your future videos and seeing your garden flourish. I hope you have a great harvest!
I also have some blueberry bushes, but they are in their first year. They still kind of look like a few twigs. haha I kind of want to plant some catnip and see if the local bobcats come by to enjoy it. haha
Definitely need updates on how the garden grows !!! 💗🫐🌶🌿
I think Haku approves of the new addition to your garden. 👍
What a wonderful, relaxing video. Cheers from East Coast Canada.
My goodness I enjoyed watching this. Gave me great ideas for my own little back yard garden.
so nice to see the whole project over multible days
omg it has been a while since i’ve checked in! no longer in the apartment :) glad you guys got more space for yourselves and the cats 🎉
Aww i missed your videos! So happy to see you update. This is awesome!
It turned out so cute!! I hope y'all have a bountiful harvest~☆
Looks wonderful! Please keep us updated.
Would you do a box to grow different rose plants? Decades ago all roses smelled like roses, very very nice. Recent years it is not easy to find roses sold as cut flowers that have any pleasant rose scent at all. This has occured in the US. I guess the heirloom roses that smell like roses are not grown for cut flowers to be sold. Growers prefer newer rose breeds that grow easy but lack rose scent. Generally all roses are quite easy to grow, in my opinion, and year after year are reliable with abundant blooms. I can imagine a walk in your yard with the scent of rose, and cutting flowers to adorn and scent the living space if desired. If you decide to grow roses, be sure it is the true scented rose.
You are so talented and skilled. Thanks for sharing the videos, the work is interesting to watch. And the projects are enviable, as most people would want to attempt. I also like the fish tank with the driftwood tree. The cat tree made from driftwood years back is also very nice, and the cats like it.
Hello Haku ...😚
Next project should be a catio por the kitties! They would love an outdoor space!
the garden looks beautiful!! next... a catio for Haku?
such a good idea to put a frame around it, well done
I am having a really bad day and this video just made me feel so much better
what a beautiful garden bed!
Komorebi is the word I didn't realize I needed in my life.
i like the way you always say 'next!' before each new step
Jun, This was a fun video to watch. You guys are SO talented!!❤
Thank you for your relaxing videos 😌👨🏻🌾
Jun and Rachel’s videos are so calming everything about them is just so peaceful, I love it, hope you guys are thriving and doing ok❤️
It looks great Jun!
sweet peas, tomatoes and lots of lettuce types are also very easy to grow. I got some sweet peas, forgot the seeds in winter outside, they rained on and actually sprouted in the pot filled with water from the rain and snow, just dunked them in thr ground, planted them 10 to 15cm apart and now its just one ginormous bush of individual plants hanging on to each other (cuz they're crawlers, they sprout those little entangling branches that hold on to everything for their dear life) They really took off around April/May and are now about 40cm from being seeded in March. Idk the specifics like ph value of them but used veggie soil I could buy here locally. Also use eggshell powder and coffee leftover, but be careful with the last one because it can easily spoil and that's kinda bad. just put some in a little hole close to the roots. The sweetpeas are actually giving a ton of harvest despite it being their first year. Hope your harvest is also bountiful, but those bushes may take up to 3 year before they give plenty of blue berries as they're in their growth stage. Also strawberries is something everyone loves and enjoys.
Yey!!!! I look forward to a great harvest❤
Jun! Good luck with your peppers! Be careful since they will probably crossbreed being so close to each other. You might end up with spicy peppers on the fruity pepper plant!
Oh it looks so cute! Are you making more with other fruits/vegetables? Grow your own stuff is so good, we got a bunch of bananas from our yard this weekend it's delicious
Looks so good Jun! Please keep us updated when harvest comes around as I'd love to know how those varieties of blueberries taste
You did an awesome job! I have to net my blueberries soon. The birds got almost all of them last year. :(
Jun seems to be able to live on a deserted island or even Mars. 😲
that small gap makes my soul itch
Im so jealous. I want a home and garden! Well done
NEEEEWWW VID LESSS GOOOOO 💃💃💃❤️❤️
P.s. soothe yet FUN vid as always and nice idea!! A blueberry snack for the neighbors ✨✨😆
Jun’s videos feel like playing animal crossing on a Sunday morning in bed with tea ❤
Always be prepared for what you get into a super hot peppers I grew habaneros never over 500, 000 Scoville and they were too hot for regular cooking, but made a delicious hot sauce
Can't wait to see what dishes you will make with your produce.
Boy, I have a terrible brown thumb and my cat eats my plants besides, but Jun makes gardening look lovely!
This is so fun and relaxing to watch :)
Hi Jun, it's probably a good idea to put the netting up asap before the birds beat you to it. They always take only one bite out of a fruit or berry and move onto the next. 😠
Watching this video and seeing the Trinidad Scorpion pepper
really nice! will be fun to see how it develops ^^
i feel inspired to start working on my own garden
jun you’re so cute thank you for making my day
Rabbit Eye is a variety name. In America we genwrally just call them blueberries.
Jun : I need to weed.
Also Jun : *gets out lawn mower* , *mows lawn*
lovely!
Omg, I need this video!
I bought one of those exact scorpion hot pepper plants yesterday XD lol
Good luck with the harvest in autumn
It looks so cool! But planting hot and bell peppers side by side isn't really the best idea, since the tastes get mixed together eventually (it's because of the bees, as far as I know?..)
Its criminal that this was recommended to me 3 days after it was posted
Wait wait wait - you said weeding (blue machine?) but that looked like it worked like a mower, but it wasn't insanely loud, is this something that exists? A non horrendously loud grass cutter??? I need this, omg. America needs em too.
On fruits, you need 2 to 4 each to cross pollinate..if you want good fruit bounty and size...Same with fruit trees..melons, cucumbers, etc...cross pollination is important!!!
It'd be cute to do a scare crow ^^
with that later part. I thought that Jun was going to make himself a little workshop. so you can do your DIY projects in a space that can get a bit messy.
try making some chili fruit jam, its very good.
How fun! I hope the blueberries and peppers grow well :D Maybe the frame is heavy enough / the winds aren't strong enough, but does it need to be secured to the ground in any way?
A candy company named Hercules Candy watched your video about Sakura Japanese candy. I was so excited because i watch both of you.
沢山実が生ると良いですね
小鳥に注意ですね😊
the birds at 2:35 activated my Need to Bird ID since there was no label, but all i could really get from the call is that they're raptors. so i imported the sound to Merlin and they think it's a black kite; the soundbite was similar but i noticed it was from India, so i thought perhaps there is a subspecies in Japan with a different call accent. and yea!! black-eared black kite (Milvus migrans lineatus), and its soundbites are closer to the calls in the video!
Jun builds a catio for next video? 😁
Have you heard of "Lasagna Gardening?" Or "No Till Gardening?" They can be combined with "Square Foot Gardening," &/or "Container Gardening."
Haku just want to protect the food from bugs and birds. You can get him one of those flexi dog leash. The tiny ones for smal dogs should be fine. we got one too for 5 Kilo dogs and my senior cat with 3.5 kilo has no problem pulling it
You should consider cat-proofing the garden and make the whole thing function as a catio!
Me out shopping for garden: Notification
COFFEE BREAK TIME
1:06 they almost got away with the brand name "World Hot Chili Peppers". 🤣
the subtitles saying "taco chip"
bro is going minecraft mode, nicely done :)
Isn't the whole backyard his garden? I'd put up some chicken wire fence to keep the squirrels and birds eating the berries.
Beutiful❤
Please use an environmesh bc I netted blueberries and a bird got her foot caught in it.
Will you guys build a catio one day?
🎉🎉🎉🎉 new video🎉🎉🎉
