Growing a Greener World Episode 1101: A Day In The Life at the GardenFarm™

[@DawnRK3204]

Gosh, this just brought happy tears to my eyes - such a kindred spirit. My gardens are my happy place, and you’re right, there’s nothing better than that tired feeling at the end of the day after working outdoors communing with nature (except, oh please, why do I have to be so allergic to mosquitoes?). Spring has just sprung, and I’m outside every chance I get, and when it rains (like today), I tweak my garden plans, inventory my seedlings, and watch videos like this. ❤. Thank you! From a long-time listener of your podcast.

Good Morning, Joe! Thank you for this, I’ve been missing the show and needed to see something both normal and uplifting, and in all cases-green.

[@daam23]

Thank you for sharing your day in the garden. You are one of my inspirations when I am working in my garden. It is certainly a very tough job but the satisfactions are enormous. Thank you again and may God continue to give you abundant health.

[@ecobluefarms223]

Awesome episode as I am journeying to my new property from my old I’ve been in an apartment this past year moved from AL to TX and I miss full gardening - this episode like the others bring me such inspiration and motivation as I figure out how to design around the home and then the acreage THANK YOU for sharing your day 💝

[@simpleperrydiselife]

Amezing garden!! It's amazing what your friend has done in such a small space. There is nothing like wakeup and gaze at your garden, while listening to nature, and admire your hard work at the end of the day. Thanks for sharing! ❤🙏

[@sarahcole7338]

Joe you’re incredible and proud you’re just down the street from our neighborhood. I hope one day soon you open for garden tours...I’ll be first in line❤️

[@freedomhavenfarm]

Thank you for your sacrifice and investment in small gardeners all over the world. Loved touching on the importance of reflection and enjoyment in the place we so often associate with work. You’re so appreciated.

[@YalisCommunity]

Thank you for sharing! I love your garden layout and great tips! You guys have an awesome dynamic I found myself laughing at your jokes. I enjoyed this video and Congrats to your daughter in her business!

[@tommartucci2886]

Incredible episode. Always wanted to know (and see) a peak behind the curtain (or cucumber wall). Thanks Joe and GGW Team!

[@kimberleyfriesenhahn2515]

So glad to see new episodes on here! I love this show.

[@AdventuresinGardening]

Great show Joe! You are an inspiration!

[@orlandovazquez4934]

Im so happy another new program congrats hi from PuertoRico

[@sharongiles6326]

Another great episode!!!!

[@lynnannecoolidge8680]

Hi Joe and crew. Before the virus situation I watched you on PBS station. I enjoy all your productions. Happy I caught up with you on you tube. Just wanted to say hi from long Island, N.Y.

[@milkweed7678]

Wow! Great video. You could do lots of shows in your garden and at your place. Can't get enough of your fantastic garden. Love to see a video on Peter's garden of course. You are right! Gardening is so neat! Learning from you is great! Where are the sweet 🌽 corn raised beds? What is that beautiful background music?

[@eftsoulpath333]

Thanks Joe, you and your programs are amazing. So grateful for all this wonderful information. You rock!

[@ronalddean4834]

I think this is my favorite episode. A garden like that is a dream to me. I wish I could keep mine that organized and clean. I'm going to start this year with one raised bed like that a year and see if I can keep up with it. I'll add one more each year and see if it's easier to handle. Great show Joe thanks for sharing

[@garyfowler1086]

Really nice, as always. My best, and my thanks, to your family and crew.

[@kathyalbritton8003]

Watching this video was a perfect way to begin my day. Thank you for an uplifting and inspiring video. Thanks, Joe!

[@nikkimachowski5553]

Lol... I almost pressed the snooze button on you phone. Love your videos. Thanks for sharing your love and passion

[@lorainelester7532]

Oh man I want to see more of Peter’s garden!

[@Serendipity1160]

I gave this episode a thumbs simply because you're back! Needless to say....I loved the content as well and once again I'm feeling inspired. Thanks for sharing your world.

[@Linda-4335]

Thanks for sharing with us.

[@maricarmenrusso1435]

Greetings from Puerto Rico and thanks for sharing. I am a weekend warrior beginner gardener and about to start a raised bed garden area in my backyard. Looking forward to the joy and excitement of each step of this process.

[@juliemcelroy360]

Loved this episode seeing you enjoying your own garden. We are so lucky to be able to have our own spaces, aren’t we? I’m really looking forward to your new season and getting my dose of Joe. Hope you had time for a little R and R in your month away. We all missed you!

[@karenandriancontainergardening]

My DVR is set for “new episodes” so I am very happy to find you here. Keep the good info coming. Thanks

[@TheFragrantBunch]

This was such a great episode! Thank you for sharing with us Joe!

[@everettmcdonald2088]

Wow. It looks like we’re in for another great season. Thanks Joe.

[@lenam2114]

Great episode, I am learning so much from you. I might end up binge watching this channel this weekend

[@leticiamoulinet9283]

Thanks It's very interesting and I learning a lots!

[@vivienrhodes4248]

Oh great I like the tip re planting the stems of tomatoes you removed So smart no one's told me that before

[@fredd5218]

Thanks for putting these online! It makes it easier to watch on the go! I love the podcast as well

[@salnenz]

Good morning Joe! Great episode!!! Excited to see what is to come. Thank you for sharing!

[@bonnywagner4069]

Everyone I know that planted basil this year had bountiful crops. I can’t give it away. How did those 72 plants work for you?😂😂😂 I am anxious to hear how the tomatoes in straw bales produced compared to the ones in raised beds. Thanks. As always, an excellent show.

[@harmonyinthegarden]

So nice to see you, Joe, AND to hear the fabulous birds and roosters in your garden! Glad to see your beautiful garden, too - keep up the good work and hopefully we can laugh and make fun of Susan again soon! ;)

[@lisabanasiak1198]

Love your show Joe! I love seeing your garden!

[@phyllisgoff1391]

Proud to have known you in Cobb County and proud of the work you're doing today! Excellent program.

[@rescuereadyroadsidellc5938]

Glad to see you guys back. Is your daughter still gardening?

[@ojapreferata]

Loved this episode!

[@betsygatto8493]

What a great episode, Joe! It’s always a joy to see you and your programs, and how wonderful to follow you through your day. Something I’ve been meaning to throw out there: you often ask your followers for ideas, or things we’d like to learn about. Well, I’d love to see something (show or podcast) about the plants/seeds these days that have been treated with systemic pesticides. I’m raising honeybees now and am worried that the plants I buy early in the season may be harmful to them and other beneficials. I remember a few years back the big box stores had tags referencing this but I haven’t seen anything on tags for some time now, but the few Japanese beetles that I found on my plants this year and last, were all dead.

[@nickwilson5637]

I much prefer these longer videos than the shorter one's.... Although good content is found in both. I enjoyed this.

[@josephcarrera3953]

Awesome video thank you 🌱😎🌱

[@deweydecimal9233]

WOW!! Thank you for this channel, I am so glad that I found it! I really admire how beautiful your garden is, it gives me ideas that I want to try in mine. Thank you!

[@bradscorner]

Okay Mr. Joe Lamp’l, so where did you get your digital microscope? The Geek in me needs to know. Love your show, and love that your videos are on KZbin. Thanks, Brad.

[@damiexxi3163]

WOW...so wish i had a peaceful place and garden to come out too :( that's my dream

[@charliezicolillo]

WOW GREAT episode Joe.Do you have the same problem as me.The work is done time to sit have a cup of coffee.Then oh wait there is a weed,prune a branch from one of the veggies.My favorite is I always find garlicscapes when I sit down still need to be picked.But it is still fun.I end up doing like you sit down with my coffee at my communitygarden.On the weekend and in the summer when on vacation for a month from job.I can be there 12 hours.It is peaceful to me.Joe were do you get those square pots that you put the tomato suckers in.How deep are they.

[@frozenyogurtist]

Lovely episode. I'm new here and really appreciate what you guys are doing :-)

[@ggwtv]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@sansomspressurecleaningpoo9519]

Where did you get your harvesting basket? Thank you for your time and videos.

[@diannamalta695]

Loved the episode, and happy Amy was able to sell her tomato plants without the market being open! Please confirm the spelling for the lettuce you picked at the end of the episode. You know I live close by, but I've never had success with 'head' lettuce. Thanks and keep on growing and teaching! btw, love the rooster. Is it Louis II?

[@martykerns3802]

Salanova. It’s only available from Johnny’s. I’ve grown it for 4 years.

[@melaniel442]

Do you direct sow your salanova?

[@martykerns3802]

It’s better to start indoors so as to control germination temperature, water, and nutrients. Although technically it’s possible to direct sow, this is likely the most popular lettuce amongst growers who sell at farmers markets. I expect that only a few of them direct sow.

[@maryannefolk1590]

Is there a video of the planning and setup for your garden beds? I'd like to copy your garden on my new property..

[@heatheringram2976]

I’d love to try this to help minimize disease. Just curious if that thin piece of wood on top was strong enough to support all those cucumber plants when loaded with fruit in the middle of summer?

[@jimstalf5367]

I have been gardening and have compost bins for years. I think one ingredient to the compost bin should have minimal use is grass clippings. The reason is simple, your lawn should be an extension from your garden. My opinion is you should mulch you grass clippings every time you mow so you put back nutrients to your lawn thus you fertilize less .There are so many other ingredients for compost for your garden. Help nature out by fertilizing less!

[@ACTIVEME101]

Good day Joe, What is exactly the benefit of the raised beds ?! What is wrong of planting directly to the ground level ?! Thank you 😊

[@kathyjagodnik518]

At the end of this video, where you were picking lettuce, there are hay bales at the fence... What are they there for? Thanks

[@charlenekociuba7396]

You've made quite the investment in the structures, raised beds etc. It looks amazing. For me though, in retirement, I have to use what I can get my hands on at a most economical way. I picked up free wood, hammered it in to raise up the sides of my "no dig" so that I can add more to raise the soil level ( erosion did the area in years ago). So my problem is a lack of all day Sun, the no dig gets a tad more than four hours. So what do you suggest to grow that does not absolutely need full Sun? It's so troubling, I have gotten suggestions. I'm even mulling over removing some trees and shrubs that line up property, to let in more Sun. I have to figure that one out. But I do need to plant in order to eat well. Food costs too much to not make the effort. I love your garden plan but I need some more practical suggestions or references to ponder.

[@foggybottomz]

Joe, you said your compost bins are made of untreated wood pallets. Does that mean not treated with chemicals? I think in the past you've said heat treated is OK.

[@waldemarrivera3910]

Good Morning. What type or kind of lumber do you use for your raised beds? Thank you.

[@paulgentry4172]

I noticed you have mesh over your eggplants. What is it protecting them from?

[@GuamMamaCooks]

What do you do about the mosquitoes?

[@karenlatham4053]

Can you recommend any garden apps. I've tried several and I just can't find one that really does what I just saw you do lol.

[@peterolafson3124]

What's with the down vote? Some people just hate plants and puppies.

[@pbudinsky1]

Peter Olafson Probably because he took credit for the planting board🤦‍♀️. I don’t know why people don’t give credit where credit is due he did NOT come up with that idea.

[@MarinersFan1987]

@@pbudinsky1 Not sure calling it "my planting board" is taking credit for it. Unless you think that by saying "My car" I'm claiming to have designed and manufactured it myself.

[@pbudinsky1]

Chuck Bertal oh my😳

[@jimmyfarmer4782]

hi are you interested in test led grow light?

[@acsmit4]

This is a silly question, but what do you use to write on your labels?? I've tried sharpies and they wash off!

[@acsmit4]

Also, where are you in GA? I live in Atlanta and am so excited to find a farmer who is in the same zone - I'll be able to do even more with your tips!

[@vnickcolvin4971]

How did you make those tomato cages?

[@foggybottomz]

They are cattle panels. He has articles on his website Joe Gardener.
