I am still utterly amazed, how you’ve utilised such a small space and created that much growth, It’s a joy to watch 👍

Lifetime gardener here.....im subscribing. Every tip is 100% spot on. Im 68 and after a lifetime of good health and fitness ive been thrown a curve ball. I thought id have to stop gardening. Not at all.....Sir, you've saved the day. Thankyou do much.❤

Ciao Spicy! I saw you first on Gardeners’ World, then heard a shout-out to you on Epic Gardening. I lived in Italy years ago, and remember the quality of the produce, also the respect for seasonality. Here, in the States, I lived in a very tight, urban Italian immigrant neighborhood in Boston. Not one inch of space was ever wasted. My neighbors rotated crops in pots on asphalt pavement. They knew how to maximize space. Everything was crammed with growth. One neighbor even made wine! That family also jarred their own sugo in oil drums of water over wood fires. Every spring Franco Cataldo would “borrow” the neighbors’ rubbish bins to collect chicken waste from a farm in the country. My shy husband would peek through the curtains to see what Franco was doing next, “Franco’s mulching his tomatoes. I better get going.” Wonderful channel. I love your accent. Grazie!

[@weirdmyst7963]

Vertical gardening is a good way to garden in tight spaces. There's even rotating tiers.

I Love your chanel, I've been growing food now for 2 years and learning to live more sustainable your probably the first gardener I've watched who talks about sustainability with your gardening because so many go for the quick fix of go to the shops and buy this so thank you and all your tips and tricks are a great help to up my growing game. Thank you

Aw thank you so much for this lovely feedback! I hope more and more people start growing using sustainable techniques and not only by buying what you need following the easy and more wasteful way

This garden is so beautiful. I'm so very jealous 😢 I love the vertical garden, how your planting up and using the shade for other plants to grow. So beautiful. I love the compost bin. Everything it's so beautiful. Thanks for letting me know about the float test with the seeds as well as info on how long they can be stored.

I so enjoy your work and your teaching. I grew up on a farm. If it were not for our garden, we would’ve starved many times. I know make my own sauerkraut I make some of my own vegetables. I grow my onions. But I am disappointed in that I cannot get my onions to grow very well. I am going to try vertical gardening to see if I cannot get more space in sunlight. Thank you for your wonderful help!

Hi Alessandro - thank you for this video. Very educational! Is there a book (or video series) you'd recommend for beginners to understand more about soil, plants, nutrients, seasons, diseases etc. I'm curious how someone like me could go from zero knowledge about planting to some knowledge, while taking a methodic approach, rather than piecing this knowledge together from various videos. Thanks!

The last thing you said was “ if you have a question leave it in the comments”. Will you please send me your autograph? My finance and I are big big fans . We binge watch as often as possible. It’s our time together. We dream up gardens. We manifest more space to grow. When we met, he said “ grow what we need, make what we want.” And here we are. I would love to hand a piece of paper to him and be like “ babe, the spicy mustache signed this for you “. Dude you’re such an inspiration. This is such a significant set of skills. We do need to revive our connection. Thank you for what you do. I hope you find this. I hope you know your impact. ❤

Compost should be in contact with the soil, because earthworms should be able to enter from beneath.

Aloha Alessandro! I found you in my searching for more and more info about Korean Natural Farming. I now have most of the formulas BUT I have a small yard and many of my plants are in pots or planter boxes. Can I use IMO in pots? Or other formulas such as FPJ, etc.? Thank you for your videos. Most charming!

[@SpicyMoustache]

Hello, thank you for joining the channel! It would be best to use it in open ground, however, I tried it on pots and as long as you don’t disturb the root mass, it will help to grow excellent plants 😊

Had no idea the seed test existed. I bought Lavender seeds that haven't germinated yet. (Bought them from 5 Below) And had to pull out the fridge method because they wouldn't sprout at all. Now I think I wasted $2 on dummy seeds

[@Itried20takennames]

If you used recycled bottles as planters, know that they won’t last long, and become brittle and easily breakable due to continuous sun exposure.

So I just moved in to a new place we’re I finally have a lot of space to grow my own vegetables, the problem is I’m now broke and can’t buy Expensive raised beds, I always want to pick up what my neighbors throw away but sometimes it’s furniture and I imagine it’s going to rot in one season or that it has chemicals that I don’t want in my food. What is the right material to reuse for my garden beds?

[@SpicyMoustache]

If I were you I’d just get pallets, dismantle them and build your own raised beds. Alternatively, lay down some cardboards, top up with compost and start growing. You can use a no dig gardening style to grow a lot of food 😊

[@juliohernandez8892]

@@SpicyMoustache thank you so much, it will be harder to transport pallets to my house but you are right it’s the best material, I have had thought about and now I will put it to practice
