Thank you!! Sexy or not, it is very useful to newbies and experienced alike. We can always learn something new from each other and get new information for something we've never realized or thought of. Thanks again for all the videos that you make to teach us new things.
I think the most interesting thing about being a gardener is watching all the dozens of different bee, hover fly, and butterfly/moth varieties that come to our yard. It's almost zen if you just sit and chill in some shade watching them buzz around. 🥰
DUDE!!! Honestly loved this video! This kind of content is fantastic and I absolutely love when you and Kevin do “Seed to Harvest” content. I’m literally storing up ALL THIS KNOWLEDGE for when my wife and I get a spot of our own. Btw she’s a HUGE fan of those gorgeous daisies! Keep it up man! Blessings!
I turned to your video today after listening to my favorite sources for international news, all of which was sad. I love your flowers, especially the Shasta daisies. You’ve cheered me up, or Mother Nature has! I’m smiling & ready for re-planning my (hopeful) fall garden! 😊
Excellent, I setup my Instagram so that I never see any news because I wanted it to be gardens and food only! Its nice to have a space that is just chill.
Garden's looking great - Thanks for sharing! I quite enjoy the informal style of gardening videos, so if you enjoy making those I say keep'em coming. Best wishes
You’re such a clear and concise communicator. Thank you for posting this even about simple tasks like tying off flowers since I’m a newbie. Your corn is legit - I’m from Indiana so I would know 😂
Love the flower tips, for me so much of that kind of thing is new, and honestly unexpected, I just assume if flowers grow a certain way, you can just forget about it, (compared to the vegetable garden which we've done a lot of trellising/staking because they grow something heavy on them) but very quickly I've found that, sometimes, they just need a bit of help to not look like an entire crazy forest. We have some variety of peony, and the flowers are bonkers HUGE and absolutely need twine to keep them from just being on the ground, not sure if its normal for that plant or if its doing "too good" hahaha. But I also still really struggle to fill in my garden at the moment. I'm glad we've had more flowers than we started with, but I still feel like our garden is just pretty sad in terms of any form of aesthetics. And I really want most of my filler plants/flowers to be mostly perennial just to help with year to year maintenance!
Just what I needed for my flower beds (yarrow can spread!!), and my zucchini and cucumber plants. Thank you for your gift of gardening (in my zone too) and gab. While your garden is still way above mine, I feel as if I can relate to it quite well.
Hi Jacques! Thanks so much for these videos! I love the Shasta daisy support you have! Could you give a small more detailed video of how you set that up, please? Not sure if it’s a special pulley knot you used to get it in place. Thanks again 😊
Excellent video! It's my first year gardening and I've learned so much from you and Kevin already. I'd love to see some more fruit tree care videos. I've got a persimmon and apple tree that aren't doing so well :0
I spent last Saturday doing most of my pruning and feeding! The chop and drop was quite helpful because I had some quite vigorous cover crops that needed to be terminated to make way for my corn and tomatoes!
Basically, cut back vines with no grapes in them and then prune vines back to 1 or 2 leafs last the last cluster of grapes! This is a good starting point
Simple yet useful tips, as always. I don’t have enough flowers in our tiny garden to use these though - for now. Would be interested into camellia maintenance tips and other flowering small trees (we live in Japan where the traditional style of garden is to have flowers almost all year long, one type at a time). Btw. I always wonder : are you using the star wars font for your titles 😊 ?
I love these videos! I got a lot out of this one. Where did you get the Katrina cucumber seeds from? The pollinators don't like my apartment complex and I've had issues with pollination with cucumber flowers. Or, the heat hits in Tucson and I only have open female flowers and no male or vice versa
@@jacquesinthegarden I live in Thousand Oaks, sorry forgot to preface that little detail. I was using drip 30 minutes every 48 to 72 hours which may have been too much, so I'm manually watering. I know I have clay soil which I amended with garden soil, but it is still very firm. Learning about composting will be next.
Jacques , i’ve come to the conclusion that you are my favorite gardening channel on UA-cam. I love how first of all you’re not about selling us proven winners, and secondly, you really know your stuff. I’ve been gardening for a long time and I learn things from you, I appreciate that. On other channels, I sometimes feel like it’s all about pretty and not about best practices. And of course, then there’s Kevins channel, I love his channel too and when you’re both on it you’re like a comedy team , you’re a perfect fit together. So there you go, great channel!
Content using Proven Winners' plants gets particularly tiresome since their plants aren't readily available in California. Bri from Blossom & Branch/Regenerative Gardening is a good follow for pretty and practical things.
I am using the leaves of my Borage plant for "chop and drop" on one of my tomatoes plants and skipping fertilizer every other week. I am using the Borage leaves as mulch and fertilizer. The plant is an Early Girl bush, getting tons of healthy looking fruit!
Just had my first substantial harvest this week (I'm in Canada). So far I have harvested 3 broccoli heads (2 of which were bigger than my head), 1 cauliflower (first one in 2 years that I manage to grow), a cabbage, two spring onions, 2 zucchinis, 4 small carrots and a cucumber. That's in a growing space of around 70 sqft
@@jacquesinthegarden yeah, I have a few remaining cabbages and the increases pest pressure really is starting to show. Good thing they only need a week or so to harvest. My collards on the other hand are basically just stems at this point, decided to leave them as a trap crop for now.
I love my carrot flowers too! There are HUNDREDS of bees and flies and small bugs all over them 24/7, i actually might plant carrots in my front garden and leave them alone, it's like an even more prolific annual Yarrow, very beautiful.
I am trying the vertical grow method for my zucchini this year and all I can say is “Wow”! I’m getting massive amounts of squash without the monstrous sized plants. You just have to stay on top of keeping it tied up as it grows and cut all bottom leaves off. Simply amazing!
I find wandering about my own garden and dealing with whatever I happen across is my favorite part of gardening. This was a terrific example of that. Keep this type of content coming!. You and Kevin are both great educators.
I enjoy these videos that feel like we’re just walking around in the garden with you. More behind the scenes 💚 Love the Shasta daisies and carrot flowers!
Not going to lie, your flower garden inspired me to finally grow my own this year! I've always wanted to, and your content has been incredibly helpful during the process. My garden is a silly hodgepodge of color and pollinators, and I wouldn't have it any other way :)
Coincidence- I’m not copying you. I just sowed BI Martian Jewels today. I got just a few last year but it was the best corn I ever ate, tied with Allure. Hopefully it will be ready last week Sept/early Oct. Allure had 90% germination and is growing so fast in our 80-90 degrees. I’m also sharing the bed with Mello yellow 55 day beans. You and Kevin had those videos encouraging us to plant quick stuff so I took your advice. Preciate you!
That chop and drop bed is so inspiring though....I am definitely giving that a shot this next spring! We added several new raised beds this year, and I can tell the plants aren't too happy with the soil we bought. Fava beans will fix it! 😁
Flowers is something I severely slacked on this season. I know that Sunflowers and Borage will self seed to return again, but I am thinking of PERENNIAL flowers to make life a little easier in the future.
How close do you plant your corn? It seems so densely packed; this is my second year growing Martian Jewels (among other varieties), and I've always followed the directions on the seed packet, which doesn't allow me a lot of plants in a 4 x 3 raised bed. This year I'm growing my zucchini vertically, and it seems to be helping IMMENSELY with airflow. I'm still pruning, but loving it so far. It also allows easier access to the stem so I can treat it for SVB xP
This was a great video Jacques! I really enjoy seeing various things around the garden and getting little tips here and there, with flowers, cucumbers, egg plant, etc. I especially appreciated you planting out those "old" peppers. Haha makes me feel better to know it's not just me with some plants hanging around a bit too long before planting out 😂
You have truly developed your own style of gardening here among the greats. I've never seen anyone tie their flowers together like you have. It's both wild and somehow contained at the same time.
My garden has a lot of carrots that I let them grow to seeds every year and yeah their flowers so pretty and attract lots of pollinater.❤❤❤❤your garden.
I had no idea shasta daisies were so gigantic when I grew some from seed 2 years ago! I think some will have to go because they block so much sun...fortunately some were well placed and can stay.
Could mint negatively impact the growth of other plants? I made a garden bed in which I planted a few cucumbers with some herbs. Two of the 3 cucumbers are doing amazing, but the one that's closes to the mint plant is doing horribly. A few years ago I also had one mint plant close to a sage plant and a similar thing happened, where the sage eventually dried off and died.
My favorite cucumber has been the "Merlin" variety from Burpee. Incredible numbers of fruits and since I grow them up a vertical string the fruits all stay pretty much perfectly straight. A good eater and wonderful for refrigerator pickles. Thanks again for the informative content!
Sir!! I love and adore your Garden... I hope someday i can take a Visit in your Colorful Garden... and to know more more types and species of your plants in your garden and it's Medicinal Uses.
to answer your Q - basically love ALL the content. all of it is a teaching moment. i'd like to hear about your sunflowers. like, are you planting them, are they all volunteer at this point?
@17:40 😂Was JUST pushing the button to leave--when I heard you mention a Zenia! Well now, you answered an unasked question! I just found a small volunteer ALREADY blooming. So NOW, I will take you along to go and cut off the blossom❤
I love this behind the scenes video, please continue to make more. I have learned a lot by just listening to you because as you are talking about one plant, you sometimes mention another one nearby that I am curious about, especially when you mention the names of the plants. I love your garden and techniques! Thank you for sharing you knowledge so freely. 💖💝
I really appreciate seeing these little normal tasks around the garden because I didn't grow up around any sort of gardening, so I have zero perspective on what normal daily garden tasks look like. It's really helpful to see this. ❤
It does have A LOT, so far they have done zero damage to the peppers. They prefer softer more tender things to eat and peppers don't seem to be on their menu!
Jacques, you are by far my absolute favorite garden-tuber! Keep up the great content. Also, is there anything I can plant to keep my house pets out of the garden while they're exploring the yard? Just curious.
I love bachelor buttons they so beautiful. They bring bees and stuff to garden immediately and they come in such beautiful brilliant colors! My garden had blues and pinks and purples.....I did a wildflower mix with alot of the same flowers as you have. It is one of my fav parts of my garden I'm making from scratch!
You already have the T-posts just add hog wire and do a zig zag with string to that for tomatoes. Much easier. Some flowers do much better and grow sturdier if not crowded, zinnias are one. Love the Shasta Daisy and I accidentally cut the tops off trimming poppies🤦♀️. One year they grew over 5’. Love the info of what happened to fruit/veg that are deformed.

I find that my tomato blossoms dry up and fall off, producing no tomatoes. I’m wondering if it’s the intense sun but I keep hearing tomatoes love the sun. Why is this happening to me.
Please do give us more behind the scenes.
Happy to do more of these!

Love these behind the scenes videos and your technique for supporting/ controlling your flowers
I think the most interesting thing about being a gardener is watching all the dozens of different bee, hover fly, and butterfly/moth varieties that come to our yard. It's almost zen if you just sit and chill in some shade watching them buzz around. 🥰
I have never in my life paid so much attention to insects as I have this year. I’m completely amazed by what I used to always just walk in by.

Should be a good corn and tomato crop!
I need your grape pruning step 2 video ASAP! I cut one back, but now idk what to do next for the mid season clean up
Basically, cut back vines with no grapes in them and then prune vines back to 1 or 2 leafs last the last cluster of grapes! This is a good starting point
great advice thx from northern canada
Yes, please!
Oh! Do a vid on how to plant out older starts when avavailability is at issue? I had that with Toms and cabbage and know I'll have it again for fall
I tend to strip off any flowers/fruits and any really bad leaves then usually will give a light liquid fertilizer dose
Thx for the follow up on the chop and drop. I’m sure those peppers are going to explode with growth
I used the twine & stake on hydrangeas last year and now on my bachelor buttons.
Great video & would love to see more behind the scenes videos.
Thanks for that tomato-pepper design. I have been putting my peppers infront because am saying tomatoes get large unlike the pepper.
I hated getting sun scalded peppers so I'm hoping this does the trick

Hi Jacques! I'm a new gardener this year. How often do you water with your drip irrigation?
It depends on a lot of different factors but I try to do a long deep watering once a week

Could mint negatively impact the growth of other plants? I made a garden bed in which I planted a few cucumbers with some herbs. Two of the 3 cucumbers are doing amazing, but the one that's closes to the mint plant is doing horribly. A few years ago I also had one mint plant close to a sage plant and a similar thing happened, where the sage eventually dried off and died.
Mint is pretty aggressive and thirsty and can definitely outcompete other plants which would make it look like a negative impact

You're brave touching that zucchini plant without gloves 😂 I don't like to use gloves when I'm gardening but definitely use them on the zucchini😂
Why is that? I've never grown zucchini
Me, too-except they still majorly scratch up my arms.
They are spiny but I have become so used to it that I just automatically touch them lightly and never really get hit by them!

It’s called a “shaaaa sta” daisy not “shaw sta” daisy, BTW! Like the town in Northern California Mount Shasta 😉☺️🤷🏻♀️
I find that my tomato blossoms dry up and fall off, producing no tomatoes. I’m wondering if it’s the intense sun but I keep hearing tomatoes love the sun. Why is this happening to me.
Love the garden updates and behind the scenes.
Thanks for the useful idea about using isosceles triangles with the carpenters rule!
I have to say I really enjoyed watching this video lots and lots of information! Thanks so much for making it easy to understand!!!
