Bravo Amy! And big props for agreeing to be on camera...I would have hated that 🙄 For me, gardening has become a passion that just keeps growing. I hope it’s the same for you 🌱 (And I hope you made out 💰)

[@robertodavila5648]

I've just recently discovered your shows/podcast, do you all still sell plants at the Alpharetta farmers market? I am now listening to the podcast all day while I work (remodeling homes) and just started watching this channel when I get home....yes, I'm addicted!

[@ggwtv]

Hi. Thank you!! We now sell our seedlings during April each year from our farm in Milton. We have an IG and FB account. Both are “GardenFarmGrown”. Also if you want me to add you to our notification list for the upcoming sale and inventory, shoot me a DM and I’ll get you added. Thanks! 👍

great episode! thanks!!!!

We had trouble with deer till we added an "attack sprinkler" on top of a low fence post. They are water sprinklers that have motion detectors in them. These are spitter sprinklers that have quite a startle effect. From day one of the sprinkler install, the deer never came near the garden again. Additionally we put one of the sprinklers down at ground level to keep the chickens out of the tomatoes. Worked like a charm. The hens would not go near the garden after just one soaking.

[@ggwtv]

I'll have to give this another look. I could use them for both these issues and more!

[@bestcrossroad]

What an inspiration! Sharing your techniques and tips to the young ones is a labor of love. Go Amy! 💝 from Zone7B

[@ggwtv]

Thank you Tess! Glad you liked. I just read Amy your comment. She smiled!

[@itsapope2938]

Thanks Joe!

[@wall2table576]

Aw well done Amy 👏👏👏

[@merriem24]

That last lazy deer 😂

[@teleguy5699]

Awesome Joe! It's great you and your daughter get to experience growing together. My nieces want to learn from me, but they live far away. I hope to give them some help when we visit them from time to time.

[@ggwtv]

Thank you Gary!

[@micheleyates3625]

So glad that I found your channel! Great job, Joe.

[@ggwtv]

Thank you, Michele. Me too!

[@loistoogood7964]

Way to go Amy!!!! You'll be inspiring lots of young people :)

[@JenniferCooperbowlfull]

[@salnenz]

I so look forward to these videos. They are so helpful! Your farm is beautiful

[@ggwtv]

Thanks so much, Sally!

[@websurfer44]

Got me looking forward to spring of 2020!

[@jeanque04]

Very interesting 💝 good job greetings from Belgium

[@rescuereadyroadsidellc5938]

I like how you showed how you start from stratch a business in gardening

[@ninastone9054]

This is awesome! I love the shots where your dog is checking on things, making sure you all do everything right . Hehe. Love to see your bird feeders full of seed. I had no clue the amount of work it takes to mass produce a product. Never knew about hardening for the plants. I am learning so much. Glad to see your daughter is into it! She is the future

[@ggwtv]

Thanks, Nina. Gosh, this is a good reminder that I need to make sure everything is buttoned up all the time. Thanks for that too.

[@jeffs1062]

As long as temps don't get too low could you leave the seedlings outside under a shade cloth except for the hardening hours instead of moving them in and out each day?

[@brutherford462]

While I now live in CA, I grew up in Georgia. I enjoyed seeing you dig up that Georgia red clay! I'd forgotten how pretty it was! Enjoyed the whole show. You encouraged me to grow some blueberries and start seedlings early.

[@ggwtv]

Love hearing this. Thank you.

[@charliezicolillo]

GOOD LUCK Amy CONGRATS.

[@Dirgy100]

How did you make your tomato cages? I work with Pre - Pre school and Preschool ages at my In Home Child Care and we grow a garden every year. These look like they would hold up better for little hands!

[@chrisb4040]

Love it!

[@mimitodd8781]

Thanks for all the great information! I ordered pepper seeds from you yesterday and was wondering when to start. How about giving those pepper plant starts that you aren’t using to friends. I can’t bear throwing out my baby plants!

[@nhacviet1000]

hi i didn’t realized you are in atlanta.. i was from there and moved to savannah.. love watching your shows ..

[@donniecarter3848]

Didn't realize you were so close to me. I live just West of Huntsville Alabama

[@MSMAXIALE]

Do you get lots of weeds from your straw mulch?

[@southernsignatures1295]

Do you keep your tomato varieties separated when planting them in the garden? I'm not clear on cross pollination... do I need to worry about that with heirloom tomatoes?

[@ggwtv]

Not necessary. Tomatoes are self-pollinating so risk of cross pollination is very low. If you're very worried about that then maybe you keep some distance but I never bother and save seed successfully.

[@nam1418]

Joe, I just started gardening and don't know how to make compost myself yet. Would you please recommend any source of selling certified compost in bulk economically?

[@Clocky124a]

For the record: I KNOW HER I KNOW HER SHE GOES TO MY FREAKING SCHOOL HEY JOE TELL HER KAITLIN SAYS HI AND I KNOW IM EMBARRASSING MYSELF BUT EEEEE!!!!

[@ggwtv]

Haha. Wil do Kaitlin! Thanks!!

[@teresakooser5695]

I thought the daughter was doing it for money. Looks like dad did all the work

Great episode, but I would have liked to actually hear Amy speak!

[@bethanneteal6699]

I'm curious. . .you mention your daughter was able to make about a thousand dollars on this venture. Did that take into account the cost of all the seed trays and grow lights and heat mats, etc? Or did you already have all that infrastructure in place? Just curious if this would be a viable way to increase my garden budget. :)

[@ggwtv]

That was the gross sales. We had some of that equipment but the cost of acquisition does need to come out of that number.
