living in San Diego, City Farmer is my go to place. Bill, the owner, his kids, and staff are always helpful and knowledgeable about what is best for our beastly weird area.
Fantastic! Just went by there last week to start my garden. Love this place. So happy you gave a shout out to other people about this amazing spot in sunny San Diego!
We live just north of this nursery and it is awesome. You did a great job John! The owner does great classes on various topics for growing, hydroponic, animal care, and more. Love, Love, Love this place one of the best nurseries in the state!
Ive been watching your videos for quite some time. I was so excited when you posted this video of my favorite nursery in San Diego. My family and child love this place.
Thank you John!!! I live in San Diego County and have been looking for a nursery that sells tree collards & other unique edibles. So excited to check this place out! Also next time you come to SD, you should go see the San Diego Botanical Garden in Encinitas. So much to see there!!! You'd love it!
Your channel is awesome. I subbed. Im a newbie, tired of all the crap veg in the store. You have taught me a lot so far. Im up n running in raised beds. Im in desert like you. Up in Hesperia in high desert. Winter type Things are germinating rt now in april, using your practices...thx so much
My son is stationed there in San Diego I wonder if he could sneak one of those tree collards on the air plane next time he comes home to visit. Probably not lol
Which video tells us about the’ cloning mechanism’ you have talked about and the one you use please I like to watch your videos instead of tv shows I just bought a ‘heat mat ‘ for starting my seeds thanks for your time and effort, I’m a loyal subscriber and have included worm castings in my spring planting’s thanks again for you giving us so much knowledge, so we can succeed and have fun while gardening and to be successful at gardening.
YOU ROCK John... I sure do enjoy your videos, I watch them most of the time while working out. BTW, "Say hello (aloe) to my little friends" is a quote from The movie Scarface. Tony Montana: "Say hello to my little friend!"
Hi, John. I love all your videos. I'm also an avid gardener, and I am also a transcriptionist. Do you know that in order for the search engines to find you, you need to have your transcript below your videos? You can reach a much broader audience that way. I'd love to help you with that. Would you let me transcribe one video so you can see for yourself? Thanks!
Looks like my back yard...lol... I'm a smaller scale ... Love the tire walls. My brother in law came by to fix doors, blinds, and toilets..and saw my worms ...composters...and wood palates in back yard....he looked overwhelmed....haha....worm girl.....
Hi new sub. here. I'm new at growing my own crops as well. thanks for your vid. I was wondering if you can share some ideas how I can convert my patio into greenhouse for the winter months.
If your blueberry boxes had holes in them (if they dont, just make them yourself) &can turn them into pots :) Saw someone complaining about the plastic. I do this with the plastic boxes that tomatoes come in, soon to be Kale.
I just love you so much! If your ever in Michigan or Ohio I would love to meet you and maybe have you do a video about how to begin gardening for newer gardeners and say what you’d install, put, plant and why. I have 2.6 acres and am constantly scratching my head to what to do and stop freezing in fear worth indecisiveness! I would put you up and pay for your consultation and all equipment that I needed. I would feed you (which I love to do for everyone) but I know you would be let down because we are still on standard American diet and you would not be impressed with eating produce from the grocery store. Would you also do a video for families? Or anyone who wants to become vegans. I think you’d get so many views and likes with that video. Your advice would be so appreciated. I’m slowly getting my family off of meat and dairy. Trying to become pescatarians then to vegetarians then to vegan.Hopefully raw like you one day! Thank you so much for your videos.Wish you love, health &fortune
Hi John, you mentioned squishing pests again, so I have to say this. Some authoritative figure, I forget who, once said that we should squish bad insects on the plants we find them on, for a couple of reasons. First, their smell serves as a deterent or warning to others of their kind. Second, because their predators will likely be attracted to that smell and it may send a call out to some of them to come help eat the rest of the bad bugs. You probably know that, but I've heard you say to squish bad bugs a number of times, yet I've never heard you explain this--if, in fact, it is actually true.
I have watched most of your videos. This is the first time I have made a comment. I have struggled so much to try and understand the balance of time vs energy vs money percentage of growing your own food. Please please please help me to understand. I see you spending moths of growing for A harvest or two of vegetibles. How is that possibly more time/cost effective than buying food from the store? Granted self grown is more nutrient rich than store bought. But how can you justify it? At my apartment I have only one flower pot with cherry tomato and Solantro growing. And I really wish I cold grow more. Please inspire me to do more and to justify the effort. God bless.

Great video, I find it very funny though the way Americans say 'erbs - !! ha ha I watched a video of yours recently where you talk about killing bugs, even that was unacceptable with a vegan/vegeterian diet, but now you are talking about ways to kill them, I think the sticky roll is particularly cruel.
Really glad you did a video on City Farmers! Love that place! It is chaotic but they have just about anything you could need. Fun to just walk around.

Mind blowing place. Good tour guide too.

I was there on Thursday, too bad I missed you man it would have been cool to meet you while you were making this video!

Damn. You were here amd missed you.
Has anyone tried the raised beds recently advertised at Aldi's?
If your blueberry boxes had holes in them (if they dont, just make them yourself) &can turn them into pots :) Saw someone complaining about the plastic. I do this with the plastic boxes that tomatoes come in, soon to be Kale.
Keep it up John!!!!!

If you could only grow food in one single pot per year, in various different zones, what would you grow? I really want to know.
I bet Kale, it's a nutritious green and can grown in cold or hot and there are so many varieties.
Yeah! Come to Maui!!
u said cactuses and they are cacti! hahaha
thank u John for all your useful videos i really appreciate you and the knowledge u bring.
...John I don't think you got the Scarface reference with the "say hello to my little friend" lol

You have to watch Al Pacino in "Scar Face" to get the full gist of "say 'aloe' to my little friends"

Lol I was going to suggest you check this place out when you’re in San Diego. Too late
Portulaca, also know as "por-chu-la-ka."
Growing in water, that means standing water which leads to over population of mosquitos.. How would one grow in water and avoid attracting mosquitos?
Check out Mountain Feed in Ben Lomond!
You say bottled water is bad, but I live in the country and I have a 16 foot water well and during drought conditions bottled water saves my life lol
The only water i drink comes in plastic bottles. I recycle tho so it's all good.
I don't think he got the joke! ;-)
dude what the fuck, this is a whole town
Great video, I find it very funny though the way Americans say 'erbs - !! ha ha

Poor animals look bored out of their minds.

Please invest into proper camera gear. Your videos are always blurry like 1999
