Thanks a bunch! A KALE bunch! I really appreciate your videos. Chiming in from Salt Lake City, Utah.

Awesome beet video. I'll sure try these steps.

Looks cool

Canning will help when it comes to freezer outage. Never have to worry about power outages

I love thé way You explain, thank you

Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for. No more schlepping plants indoors for winter.

Thinking this may be just the option for my 83 year old father who lives alone in his own house half hour away from us . We had 150cm of snow last winter and we're unable to get to him . He was snowed I for a week before even a plow went by . This would give him use of a kettle, light and even microwave. Thanks looking into this.

Very nice info and cooking. Ate some decades ago and don't remember if I liked them but now I use every rooted veggie I cut the end off to put in a pot to grow for green cutting year round and the seeds to grow more they bolt, cook and plant in a pot as I live in a paved yard. One of my very best is the Basil market tiny pots of live plants. When you unpot them you see multiple seedling that you can separate and put in any pot to grow basil the year round. 4ft tall with seeds and the pots in the shade ready to eat. I found today in W.L.A. Ca. sunchokes in a 1pound bag, mostly planting size but a few big enough to boil, season and bake. I liken this to the ginger I put in pots and next year I'll see if they outwork the potato pieces I pot. I'll take half of the bag to poke into pots and see what happens, $6 for the experiment?

We use a couple of these down at our hunting cabin that doesn't have power (different brand forget what) they work well but I don't really know how well the solar aspect works on it though. I have been thinking about buying something like this for quite some time for our house but I really want to make sure the solar panels work as advertised, good to see a product that holds up to what it claims.

I'd prefer my gas genny. Powers the whole house minus the heat pump and hot water. Someday I'd like to get a EV that can power my home like the new Silverado.

Looks simple enough for me to manage!

I lose power a lot in Michigan in a suburban area. I really am intrigued. Thanks for sharing.

Also, if your region have wildly fluctuating grid-power costs during winter, you can time-shift your draw from the grid by charging it when power is cheap and try to offload some power usage to it when it's expensive, to save a few bucks...

I think if I had this set up I'd add some small wind turbines, we always have wind in nova scotia. Cool video I'd like to run the whole house like this.

There are maybe 100 edible plants and flowers on my property and the ONLY one they constantly eat is roses. Above the hostas and hydrangeas which they have nibbled but not constantly. There's a wild bush with berries right next to the rose they don't touch. I just heard about electric deer spikes that set up a wireless fence.

So what happens to the tomatoes that are still growing if I pull them out?

Great video! Going to try making a bunch & freeze to use for my lunches. Using Fine milled yellow corn.

Super cool idea! Thank you for sharing! Our first video on your channel. Regards, Peter & Roy (South Africa)

Hello from Port Clyde! So great to find some garden videos from NS. We plant many of the same things. 😊

Thanks for the video. Also to help the cleaning process you can use a toothbrush (or any small brush) after running the water through and after breaking the chokes apart. Hubby has just harvested 40 lbs of sunchokes.

Looking forward to seeing the rye and sourdough! thanks for the informative video

If I was doing my garden again I would perform a once off subsoil to loosen the compacted subsoil and then let the plants, particularly deep rooted ones, do the work. Areas around the house where the excavators loosened soils are full of worms and life ahead of non tilled areas. Briars/brambles and dock plants are the best soil improvers ever - their roots smash through hard soil and make the bed for tree seedlings. And the next step is leaf fall.... a natural application of organic material every year. Nature will fix any problems no commercial products needed.

Thanks for your video what about corn stalks zinnias sunflowers I have them kind of all together believe it or not can I leave them all in the ground or just cut them off at the tops and just lay them down in the dirt?

Excellent information thank you 😊

Thank you

I’m soo glad you did the “Rambling answer”, because I’m going to be starting a bigger garden than I ever have and have been torn between doing more traditional or no till I have a passion for doing no till or really heavy cover gardening, but I do want to get a jumpstart on this and seems like I hit my possible answer here. I’ll definitely use the family rota tiller and then compost and cover. Maybe do a comparison of other methods side by side Great video by the way. I’m learning as much as I can and doing just that with this vid Peace N Love

Oh my gosh, this video is a Godsend. So very, very helpful. Thank you so much. You have a new subscriber in me.

Very helpful! Thanks.👍

Impressive video, Maritime Gardening. Looking forward to seeing your next upload. I smashed the thumbs up button on your content. Keep up the great work! Your approach to using moss for insulation in the compost bin is fascinating. Have you considered any specific types of leaves or materials that might enhance the composting process further?

It was so hot in July I let a few of my garden beds get overrun with weeds and just let them go for the season. And now I have a bunch of volunteer peas. It is so wonderful to have fresh peas. 🫛 And yeah, they are not as big, but man, it's so awesome.

Grew them- I am an enthusiast- for the second year now, but still have trouble digesting them, without getting that "gas"tly side effect. Help!

If you want logs for the edges that will last a while, use cedar, or cypress if you have access to it.

I give up growing spuds in my garden-useless soil they only grow tinh and are very hard to boil.

I just got 30 tons of cow manure delivered today going to spread and till into the ground tomorrow 1/4 acre here ,thanks info

Looks really nice!

Excellent!

no roof to keep animals out?

I've been mulling over the idea of making something siilar with cedars that have been blown down on my property. But I guess I wasn't thinking of using anything to seal between the logs. Right now I have a chicken wire bin with centre divider...it works great but it also rusted out...thus the cedar log idea. Thanks for sharing your project...you gave me more to consider. I just hope my Stihl will work to do the job...lol. Cheers from NB

Turned out to be something that I would use very much over the years!

This was very nice and I love the music too. My wife doesnt watch your videos but came over to see what it was when she heard the wonderful music.

We are of similar minds! I did almost this exact thing, bjt for a small garden bed. And I went even faster, and lazy, and had vertical corner supports and screwed it together... I will be trying it your way though, j like thay jt is just square. I get obsessed on details, and never wanted to put the time in to peefectly scribe round notches. So this is a perfect idea for me! Thank you!

You so much for sharing your video! Building a French drain system that will go into a pond that I can use to also water my garden and this was very inspirational to me. I really appreciate that you added in there using your imagination and not using your smart phone because I think we people need to get back to, playing in the dirt and using our imaginations! So thank you thank you thank you. I hope your project is going or has gone well and is functioning the way you imagined it would. Have a wonderful day and happy gardening.!!!

A beautiful object.

❤❤❤

Thanks for sharing

I’m in the high desert and the ground is granite and clay. I used raised beds and grow bags

Handy syringe there. I just use a big 30ml syringe from the feed store they are cheap. But I'm a bit of a fuel outlier. I buy cheap add oil and use it for months. At end of winter i use up the leftover mixed in my mower. Doesn't affect it. All works for me. But your ideas are best practice

Thank you for the help,

arp rosemary i believe is the most cold hardy. i planted one this spring. im in canton ohio. i do plan to still winterize it with burlap and straw. was wondering if you prune yours down before winterizing it?? have never done it before.

If you lay your door on its side no taping it in place is needed.
