@@joeanon1415 and some peppers for salsa👍
*GREAT AWESOME LIFESAVING & L7FECHANGING VIDEO *OMG/ME OH MY !!! *THANK YOU BROTHER !!!! I will SPREAD this.
I love your attitude. You're like the Steve Irwin of gardeners. Cheers to you.
I couldn't agree more lol. Well stated
Sounds right to me.
I hope a potato doesn't end up killing him 😢
With a hint of Bob Ross calmness.
“Crikey look at those beans they’re beautiful let’s get a closer look”
If the world was populated by more guys like him, there would be world peace, little or no disease and a lot more joy
True.
Sustainability is the way
Love helpful people good team players 👏 👍
If the world was left alone by westerners in the 1st place it would be a better place...research aboriginals, you’ll find out all you need to know
@@gobshyteguru2695 boooo westerners. It's ok, the rate they're going, they'll bring on their own demise
Definitely true!
The amount of dad jokes alone deserves him a subscription, let alone the knowledge that he shares and his storytelling based on his own life. Stay healthy!!
Man this guy is a classic, never thought I’d enjoy a video about gardening but here we are
This dude is f*cking fantastic. Like... I hope his favorite sports team does well and that his socks come out of the laundry right next to their matching partner every time.
haha I'm stealing that sock line
That's a great blessing.
@@Flippokid Hey, man, he blessed me first. So, like, y'know what? Bless you, man. Yeah. Bless this whole blessed thread. Get blessed all up in here. (You ever repeat a word so many times it starts sounding weird in your head? Yep... getting there.) So, like, to anyone reading this: go bless yourself.
He's amazing..there should be more like him growing raw food and teaching others for free..
simple life..

small but complicated
@@annychest718 😁😁😁
Please watch also as he has excellent tips and additional info but heres the list for convenience.
1. Lettuce
2. Carrot
3. Cabbage
4. Beetroot
5. Onion
6. Cucumber
7. Peas
8. Beans
9. Tomatoe
10. Potatoe
Give the man a big thumbs up!
Thank you!
Yep. And that’s why it’s called coleslaw. Slaw is a contraction for the Dutch word for salad. So coleslaw means cabbage salad.
My dad grew them all
Thanks
Made my day👌
I don't just love your content, I love the AUDIENCE. Yes guys, I enjoy reading all the comments. I'm sure he does too. If everybody tried to be self-sufficient and grow plants to eat, wow, what a great world this would be. I totally agree with this passion for gardening. I grew up old school with a mother who gardened every year. NONE of us were obese, I was a size 7 when I was 18. It all went downhill after college and going to buffets...but man, I want to go back to the organic Gardening.
Are all Aussie this happy and cheerful? It seems like heaven on Earth.
"When I think about onions, it brings tears to my eyes" 🤣 lol

Nice joke!
CHOCKER UP THE BLOCKER
there were so many little gems sprinkled through this video but this one was the best
great vid, trying to make the transition from houseplants to actual food and this is very helpful!
The most important thing I try to put in every year is pumpkins. I plant them in odd corners of my garden and let them ramble over everything. They're incredibly easy to grow, just glop some pith and seeds down with some compost and check it every so often. 6 months later there's pumpkins. It's one vegetable that no matter how busy or exhausted I am I can find the time and energy to start them off and they keep doing their thing with very little input, and though I do like to get out there with a paintbrush and give them a little help it's not really necessary. Harvest in time for pumpkin soup, roasted pumpkin, pumpkin muffins, oh my.
So true. Once we composted by accident some pumpkin leftovers with seeds and they grew on compost.
Pumpkins watermelon and zucchini are my three plant and walk aways. Come back later and you always have a good crop
Paintbrush? Is the orange color in acrylic or oil?
I'm not sure how I got here, but I'm TOTALLY staying.
I loved this guy.
Same!
@@Cjs_Travelin_Van-Na Haha SAME!!!
Professional Australian
I feel the same way. He seems to have the knowing of a lot of things.
I agree with you “mate” little fun with words , but I do like humor , to the point , added facts & fun , and educational all at the same time ....I’ve just RETIRED & home care for my MOTHER with Dementia , difficult at time & have no training in this field , I’m as most everyone , just doing the best I can day to day ....
Be well & safe my friends , Jon
If Steve Irwin was a plant guy he would be you Brother, you make me smile alot like he did.
Thanks Cody, to be compared (just a little) to that legend of a man is a great compliment indeed. Cheers :)
@@Selfsufficientme Cheers!
We all love Steve Irwin, we're waiting for his first grandchild.

My garden philosophy is to grow things that are better (or much, cheaper) than you can buy.
I don't grow your #10 lettuce because I don't like soft young leaves. I prefer iceberg (better quality and inexpensive in groceries).
I don't grow carrots. Homegrown are generally not as good as store-bought. I notice that you grow the short cultivars because larger ones are much harder to grow. You don't get much to eat on the short ones.
I don't grow cabbage. Store-bought is as good or better, and it is a magnet for bugs in the garden. But I love growing its relative: kohlrabi, which is usually old and dry in stores, if you can find it.
Beets and turnips are a necessity in my garden, but here in Ohio, you have to build a wire frame over beets, or the deer get every bite. I love the roots, but the cooked greens are even better.
I only grow large field onions to plait them for my kitchen wall. Store-bought onions are as good. But scallions, shallots, and esp. leeks are better home-grown.
Most home-grown cukes (like Marketmore) taste similar to those in a store. I only grow Straight Eight because of the fabulous taste. As an older variety, it must be sprayed for bugs, or the bugs bring fungus that kills the plant early.
Little Marvel Peas are #1 in my spring garden. Here in America, either you can't find what we call "English Peas" (shelling peas) in a store, or they are dried up. Snap peas and snow peas are not nearly as good.
Beans are a necessity, esp. ones that are hard to find in stores: haricots verts, Chinese long beans, dried beans for cassoulet, caviar lentils.
Over half of my summer garden is tomatoes: the new heritage hybrids (Brandy Boy, Genuwine), the great reliable classics (Big Boy, Early Girl), the best cherries (Sun Gold, Sun Sugar), and a wonderful French Import (Jaune Flamme').
The only potato that I grow is yummy Kennebec because I can't get it in a store.
You left out some necessities:
I grow Golden Bantam corn because stores only carry those sickeningly sweet newer bicolor cultivars.
Next to tomatoes, the main crop in my summer garden is eggplant: Black Beauty and Rosa Bianca.
There are home-grown peppers that beat everything in any store: Marconi and genuine Hatch (NuMex 6-4).
Mike I've been watching your channel on and off whenever you roll into my feed. I was at first primarily interested in Ginger, but your passion for gardening ignited my passion for Gardening. You've earned my subscription. This will be my first adult gardening since decades ago when I was a young girl watching my mother garden. We grew up eating healthy organic vegetables every year for at least 2 decades before everybody grew up and moved away to the big cities. So this year, after surviving a 3 year fight with Cancer, I am going to take up gardening. I may have to go back and watch your videos from days gone by...but I enjoy all of your new content too. Please show more videos of how your family cooks or stores the goodies from your garden. I found your last video of the potato stew very sophisticated. I don't think the average gardener could have pulled off your one pot delicious meal. I myself would have boiled or baked the potatoes put some herbs and butter and done. But you took it to the next level with all your herbs, spices and turned it into a 4 hour stew. WOW. I was impressed.
Funny accent yet easy to understand, no fluff or background music, dad humor
I've made it to God's golden shores
i AGREE W/ YOU. Music in the background is so annoying. Thanks for not having music!!!!!A Take care!!!!
You nailed it!
What's funny about his accent?
@@reogrande8020 very different from mine and thus novel to me :)
I too love the fact that there's no broken record playing in the background.
“When I think about onions it brings tears to my eyes” Immediate thumbs up
😭
:-))
My eyes rolled back into my scull so far I started to see the past when I heard that one, still yes, thumbs up.
Great stuff once again! Agree that potatoes pretty much grow on their own. The only other few vegetables I'd include would be zucchini/summer squash & garlic. Honorable mention to bok/pak choi (part of cabbage family) and spinach. I suppose it really depends on your climate, sun/shade situation, etc. But tomatoes, zucchini/summer squash, beans (green), peas & garlic are probably my top picks. Love your channel and info!
Mark, I like your australian accent but you pronounce in german also very well. Thanks for all your hints. Wish I had such garden space and similar climate to grow most of my own food.
My grandfather would hand till an acre of land every year and plant most of these. He also had 5 honey bee hives. He lived to be 95 and was still doing this until he was 94.
That was the way of life to live a long time. My grandfather had bananas all kinds and bee hives, they are attracted by the bananas the honeysuckle on the trees...mmmm
DNA not food. Yiu have his genes Good luck
That's dope! You're lucky to have had that example and fountain of wisdom in your life.
@@martha6829 what do you mean a long time ago. My family still do this.
Mad respect to him! I never garden and I rented a tiller today to make two parallel rows on a hill and it was the ridiculously difficult to do the entire process. I have a newfound respect for farmers
“Chocker up the blocker!” 😂🤣
Welcome to ausjailya😂
My peas has just started to grow easter weekend is the best time to grow peas 🫛 by us i have at least 200 peas 🫛 growing lot's of love from south africa ❤❤❤❤
Awesome list! Since I'm in Brazil my list would be a bit different, chuchu (chayote), couve (kale) and aipim (cassava) are very easy and cheap to grow in the climate that I live, and my parents actually have been growing them for years.
I wouldn't take away from your top 10 vegetables but I would always grow a variety of herbs to use to cook with these 10 top vegetables.
Totally agree, but have learned cilantro best in spring & fall, basil my favorite best in summer, call it water gage plant when leaves at sides know to water it & all my others, oregano & sage best in shaded areas, & every year my dill gets eaten up by catapillars. Years of trial & error. He lives in a tropical climate & probably has better luck then most of us when it comes to gardening. Every year I'm getting better with the help of people like him. Wish you the best with your gardening.
Great idea 👍
@@jennyl.5358 , good point, different growing seasons depending on where you live; here in Louisiana I grow cilantro and parsley in the winter- it's too hot in the other seasons so it bolts immediately.
Yes! I love my herb garden- we harvest from it almost every day. Here in north Louisiana, USA we even harvest all winter. We have a bay tree along with the herbal spiral.
Planted my basil and oregano seeds ( indoor ) today! 🇨🇦
its good to see that russell crowe is finally doing something useful with his life.

I love your videos. Thank you for sharing your time, expertise and effort! I have 8 raised beds and your informative videos are helpful and easy to watch.
Beets!!! I not only LOVE growing beets I love beet greens and especially PICKLED BEETS which are delightful.
Beet greens added to a salad are terrrific. Boiled beet greens are super healthy.
I love self sufficient me.

"It grows in my lawn!"
"That's not true, I just made it up."
"What's cabbage in german?"

My favourite UA-cam quote - ‘store bought tomatoes taste like disappointment.’
Jess, has stated that many time, it's so true!
It’s so true! I thought I hated tomatoes until I tried them off the vine
My fav was "if you're chocka up the blocka"
Store bought tomatoes taste more like sadness.

I say that everytime I watch his videos
I believe the consensus is Steve Irwin meets Russel Crowe.
I literally just said this to my fiance lol
Just love his passion..just like Steve
@@ryankelly9032 loved the video great combination!!
The Steve Irwin of gardening. He’s so wholesome it makes me feel safe and happy and I can’t wait to get gardening this season. I’m making some compost for my worm beds :))
Nice! I just collected over 800 pounds of compost yesterday! 👍🏻 I’ve never been this ready this early for spring planting! Best of luck! 😇
@Karen S Same here! 😎 I do a four bin. The fourth is beauty waiting for sale, barter or worm farm. It moves really quickly...
Awesome!
Worm beds sound terrific !! 😃
@@SweetChicagoGator A worm bed every year. Easy and inexpensive. The BEST fertilizer! And what the fish love!
I love eating Best Maid baby koshers (if my kids don't eat them all), then using the same brine to put canned beets into. Love my beets to be a bit on the sour side, than the sweet side, but how boring of a world if we were all the same.
I don't have enough space for a garden at the moment, but I enjoy watching your videos. They bring me joy. God bless you for that!
From Austin, TX,
Cheers 🍻
Love the list. I agree generally, and love the note of when I can eat the leaves of a root vegetable.
I really can't comprehend anyone downvoting this video.
It should be taught in schools!
Well done to the author!
I'm teaching this in my environmental classes (especially hydroponics). I get a good many kids growing their own veggies, and growing them with grandparents (CoVid they really started doing those "at home" things). I might make this one video part of their homework. I've got a 2k grant to spend on this :) Very excited.
In this world there are all kinds of people
Yes, I wonder about the thumbs down people. I love these videos.
Because trolls hate veggies
such a valid point NOURISHING GOODness for our kids futures...
history lesson
Let FOOD BEE THY medicine and medicine BE Our FOOD
So my mother came home from the hospital with the diagnosis of ovarian cysts. Docs were worried about them turning cancerous, talking about putting her under the knife, giving her sketchy medication. So it was some daunting news.
Before my parents decided to go that route, my father did some research on natural alternatives. Found out about beets. My mother didn't like beets, and wasn't thrilled when he approached her about it. But considering the alternatives, they went ahead and everyday my father started juicing beets for her. EVERYDAY, I heard that juicer whirring away, and he calling her into the kitchen to make her stand over the sink and down it.
At her follow up appointment, the doctors were stunned to find that there were no longer cysts. The beets had seemeingly vaporized them.
Make what you will of it, just thought I'd share!
So, years ago already I remember reading that there were medicines for cancer made from beet extracts.
hi there ! dude , read about garlic !!! it's awesome .
ua-cam.com/video/-amTud3xkQg/v-deo.html
Gavin D. Many cysts do not cause any symptoms and go away on their own. The beets made sure she didn’t get scurvy as well.
I LOVE BEETS. its my go to veg every year for sure!
I LOVE all your videos!!! such an inspiration, LOVE all the jokes, and appreciate all of the tips :) Keep up the incredible work legend!!!!
I love your attitude, your enthusiasm and knowledge, thank you for your friendly presentation.
Honestly, this dudes delivery of dad jokes is just spot on

Wait is that another onion joke?
Wait, hold on... Which one are you referring to? 4:52, 4:56, 5:00, 5:06, 5:10, 5:37 or 5:46?

Have fun! I hope you enjoy it as much as my family and I have (we just started about two years ago!)
Me too

Sorry I mean AWESOME
"The reason they started Bugs Bunny..." loved it!
My grandmother used Bugs Bunny and Popeye to convince me to eat my veggies!
Oh my yes! My mom, too. 🤣 But canned spinach... 🤦♀️
My grandson has spinach Ceaser salad and eggs and spinach and grilled cheese with diced spinach all because of Popeye!
When my son was three he kept asking for spinach so i gave him some one day. He took one bite and bolted out the door. I found him trying to lift the house! 😄
I think his conspiracy theory is correct - Buggs was created to market carrots to children!
I use philips viva juicer to extract carrot juice. Then add fresh milk.. Really delicious.
Thank you for educating us. I love all your educational information and insighrs
Thanks for this video. One of the things I like during winter is planning the coming garden. Since you asked what I would change in your list I'll tell you. I wouldn't change much but I'd swap the lettuce out and plant squash - both summer & winter varieties.
Though I'd add two veggies simply because of how much I love them: pumpkins and garlic
Yeh, I would have swapped beets for garlic
I'd swap lettuce for Garlic, and definitely add pumpkin keeps for a year too.
Yes garlic FOR SURE even if it's wild garlic, always put some in flower bed to keep out the pest, too.
Garlic is definitely needed
Oh, pumpkins, YES. I let volunteer pumpkin vines grow out of the compost bins, because free food I didn't have to plant or fertilise, and they keep SO WELL. Just, massive amounts of versatile food. Pumpkin scones, pumpkin soup, pumpkin curry, roasted pumpkin, mashed pumpkin, pumpkin cake, pumpkin layered into lasagna, pumpkin in yachaejong pancake, leftover pumpkin in bubble and squeak on toast, pumpkin with pork... I could pumpkin all day. How did I forget to add that to my list?
Garlic sadly remains one of those things that I have invested so much time and money into growing... and never got a single bulb. Wrong climate, buggerit.
This guy is golden! *thinking of onions, brings tears to my eyes* 😅
The white onion and purple onions are sweet, but I still can't bring myself to take an "apple" bite out of one.
just eat it like a apple ... its healthy
That's the line that got me cracking up too
I loved this video! Thank you so much for sharing!
A most helpful video of a great selection of vegetables. It has inspired me to make another attempt to grow my own veges again.
Hi, the cabbage is just called Kraut or Kohl, in German. Sauerkraut is just the fermented cabbage (Weißkohl or Weißkraut) 😅
Greetings from a Transplanted Kraut.
Good to know 😊

With your brilliant raised bed garden, the list goes on towards abundance.
You should probably do a video on 10 veggies that can be grown in pots or grow bags - it may benefit those like me who don't own a huge space.
Chiles mate! I'm Mexican, can't live without them. They are like spicy tomatoes.
Yup-That would be my only addition to the list

Bahaha! My husband ate lots carrots when we started eating 80-10-10. His skin turned slightly orange and as we were driving down the toad he thought he went blind. He pulled over and said we waited too long to change our diets and started to cry. He had some old glasses that weren’t very strong and tried them to see if he could see. And it was unbelievable, but he went back 3 prescriptions. We don’t know if it was the entire diet of all raw fruit n vegys or if it was the carrots 🥕 but we were thankful. We also had so much more energy.

"Was ist das?" It's actually Weiskohl, where "Kohl" means cabbage. ;) Sauerkraut is simply fermented cabbage.
Love your videos!
What does Kohlrabi break down to?
Wired Lain so Rabi isn’t anything?
@@emilyegbert8640 Kohl - cabbage rabi-root, tuber Kohlrabi-cabbage root/tuber
Rape in Italian are sugar beets. Original it comes from Latin and the p changed to b over time.
Rapunzel also got her name from 'rape' (somehow it doesn't read well in English 🤔). In the original fairytale Rapunzel's father stole some rape from his neighbor's garden for his pregnant wife. He got caught and had to promise the unborn child to his neighbor who also was a witch of sorts.
Rapunzel means little beet.
Ingela Grupe if you wait long enough, he will be right...
Emily Egbert kohlrabi means : ‘i am not a cabbage...’
Random german dude here: The german word for cabbage is "Kohl" - "Sauerkraut" refers to the fermented Kohl.
