Hello there! I just saw this video and noticed the hard time you had with the spikes of the tomato plant. Why didn’t you use gloves to protect your hands?

Hey John! Have you seen the story about Julie Bass in Oak Park, Michigan who is running into trouble with the City for her front yard raised beds? It was featured on the Agitator. The city said it is not suitable, and she might face jail time for growing her own food.

Thank GOD I am not the only one with the pygmy shovel..lol…omg, I have been ridiculed over mine by my friends and family, my parents even picked on me last Christmas and bought me a full sized shovel for a gift…. I still use my little one though, all over the yard 🙂

John, you should have people do video responses related to the video asking questions. You could show the video clip in your video and then answer the question, set up certain rules…. i think it would be great!! Thumbs up if you agree!! 😀

Nice vid. I like how you usually encourage your viewers to buy from local, independent hardware stores. Those that are left, that is.

Hi John! What a great, informative video! As a first year gardener, I have a hard enough time growing wanted plants in the garden. I’d love to have some volunteer plants sprout up on their own. 🙂 Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience!

That was the plan, but the problem was that there were multiple plants in a small area of space, and was not really too possible especially with all the thorns in this plant.

Great video & hat! Would love a vid showing what Tomato Suckers are. Know it is basic, but new veg gardener, last year trimmed flowers (by mistake), this year bottom stems, there are soo many branches, just do not know what they are. Need a visual, if you ever get bored.

Kind of jealous of your Litchi Tomato, but, at least I’ve got a greenhouse. . . . Mine I started a little late (about a couple weeks ago) and it’s just about an inch tall, but thankfully I’m growing it in a greenhouse, so I’m not worried about the lateness of things. . . . Just my patience. What I want to ask you though is do you know anyone who’s successfully grown the Cassabanana?

I just had eyelid surgery a few days ago and I’m feeling really depressed about my appearance. Watching you work in your garden is very therapuetic. It takes my mind off my traumatic experience. Thanks, John.

Hey John, you should’ve dug out the rootball with the soil. That way there would be very little or no disturbance to the plant. You can use the big shovel and dig the plant from all sides then gently lift from the bottom.
Cheers!

Thanks for the vid, John..Wish i were in N. Cali. Here in TX we have an epic drought .however, I am purchasing a small house in a small town that backs up to a large pecan orchard that has watering systems, and I believe that the many trees being watered daily affect the town trees and plants in a good way…It’s cooler there…The backyard is grown over with sucker trees, but I like that b/c it makes a bird habitat with one sunny corner for a garden..Want to have guinea fowl also..

Thanks

Your tutorial videos are my favorite… I’d love to see more of them. Seeing it first hand is the best way. Even the mundane tasks are interesting when you’ve never done it before.
