    I love John Lord’s “rough and ready” approach to gardening. He frees me to stop fussing and let the plants take more care of themselves. They will! More videos please!

    Ahh, NOT beaten by a rock! I'm so glad I found you guys. It's just great to see an expert gardener who makes gardening less overwhelming, rather than more. I really need that.

    Hello John, I love your program, enthusiasm and garden knowledge. My garden is in Grand Bend, Ontario, Canada. Is on lakeshore of Lake Huron, sandy soils. Totally different than your garden but I still learned a lot from you. Hope you are safe and healthy in this difficult times. Keep showing new garden ideas. Your faithful Canadian student, Grażyna Grace PIEKOSZ.

    Love this video. Shows what REAL gardening is like... lots of digging and chopping! I did the same thing in my garden today.

    You’ve worn me out, John, just watching, but I’d best be inspired instead. I need to get three shrubs in the ground today. God bless you.

    I have started using your fast and tough gardening method, to see if it really works, think I have been too soft with them.

    Aw, ❤ Teddy. That poor rosebush! I hope you cut it back and replanted it? I agree wholeheartedly about stones. I am on the side of a hill in western Washington and have far more stone and boulders than soil it seems. Have hurt my shoulder trying to plant and it gets bad again every time. Can't wait to see a follow up on this bed in a few months. Thanks, John!

    I've moved bronze fennel many times. It didn't always survive. But it's constantly popping up all over my garden. It all started with one plant in a 4 inch pot 13 years ago. I can afford to be a bit ruthless and not so careful.

      I'm laughing as well. I like the way he tramples over the bronze fennel - I 'm always stepping back on stuff and creating a right mess too.

    Blasted stones. They usually always come accompanied with friends :0 There is an old creek bed underneath my yard. I plan things out a bit more due to the difficulty with digging. Nice to see your thought process in action.

    Did I understand that you only water when planting, moving and splitting your plants?

    • @johnlordssecretgarden
      @johnlordssecretgarden  5 років тому +5

      Yes that’s true. Ireland gets lots of rainfall so we only need to water them when moving them until they settle.
