    I appreciate the effort you put into getting this in UA-cam as black folk are truly underrepresented in the world of gardening eventhough we been doing it long before we ever stepped foot on this continent. Your family is beautiful, look forward to seeing more on your channel!

    Guys please allow me to help you out. These tips will make you love gardening. First Start your plants earlier in the house so there bigger(end of February first of March ) by the time your ready to plant after the last frost(med to late April depending on ware you live) Second lay newspaper, cardboard ect in the garden. This will stop crazy weed growth. Lay as close to plants as 3in.(no closer) Third Once this is done add compost on top, or mulch or both or even leaves from raking the yard if money is low. Now what this will do in addition to killing weeds, it will allow the soil to hold water so you don't have to water so often. Also as it breakdown it adds more plant food into the soil. Win win win for you your plants and your harvest and your time. As you can see using this process will save you time and money so you can enjoy watching it grow and pulling weeds here and there. Also practice sustainable harvest. Example your greens and lettuce only harvest the older leaves. This will allow the plant to grow back faster like in a few days kind of fast or sooner depending on age of plant and time of year and care it gets. Also water the newspaper before adding mulch compost ect. I hope you will do well with this process because I know it works, been doing for many years and it will work for you for many years. So use it and make it your own. Blessings to you both. P.S. being this video is a bit old the mulch newspaper part works in any stage of growth in the garden.

Growing natural is the best ...everything tastes sooo much better! I've been watching the videos on UA-cam about gardening since last year and the progress in my garden is awesome! Anything you want to know about growing in pots or raised beds or in the groung I just type in the question in the search bar and so many videos telling you how to do it pops up. Everyone is so helpful it's really made a difference! I've been getting so many compliments lately it just tickles me. So I just thought I;d pass my info find on to you and your gardening family.

    I am sort of new but am much older.
    I was told that a watermelon is ready to pick once the vine nearest the melon dries out and you need to put something under the watermelon to keep If from having direct contact on top of the soil(straw, hay or cardboard for example)
    Read up on examples of inexpensive weed barriers.
    You pall will do great this year, I will follow you all.
    Good luck.

      My biggest suggestion is research! Look up your zone, understand your weather because even with knowing your zone, things can change. Look up plants you like and use. Learn about their growth cycle. Join gardening Facebook groups. And then Start! Don’t get too lost in research that you don’t start. (A bad habit of mines lol) Everything is trial and error. But with consistency it will grow! 😊
      Hope that helps. Good luck ❤️❤️

    I think y all did good for your first time. Next year try to keep the grass and weeds out of the garden because they take away from your plants. The watermellon seed are larger than when you buy them because they have to dry out for you to plant them and they get smaller, and if you're saving the seeds for next year, you'll see what i mean. I'm a young seventy something and this is my first time gardening also I learned alot from watching other people videos about gardening on youtube and when I didn't know something, I googled it. I made some mistakes and I just want you to know I'm not judging. I just want to help. Did you put fertilizer in the soil. The most important thing that you can do is to keep the grass and weeds out of your garden. You'll be surprise how much more you can grow. and yours plants will do much better. You have earth worms that is great it's the best thing for your soil. This year I plant some of everything, things I don't eat ,what a waste. Next season I will be planting only what I eat. I hope I helped you just a little bit. God bless you and family.

    Fantastic guys I love to see a husband and wife team. May God continue to bless your family. We grow lettuce and greens all year long. You can build a small greenhouse for about $250 and grow many things all year long.
