Thanks for sharing that planting and harvesting program. 🥰 That's going to help me a lot on our farm this year. Keep up the great work 😁👍 and hope all is well with your family this year. The new puppy is growing fast.

[@alliehumphreythreepines]

Love that sass from your dog. I started following you after a freeze dryer video. But I love bees and want to start a medicinal garden. Literally hit the jackpot with your channel!❤

[@TheHoneystead]

Lol sooo much sass!! Thank you! That reminds me, I need to load up leftovers soon!

[@elenaklasing6266]

Looking forward to the ebook on growing a medicinal garden!! Thanks for all you do ❤

Here in Canada we got feet of snow. With lows of -18*c which is 32*f. Can’t even begin our seeding yet.

[@natalietroy6319]

Thankyou for the gardening manager. Exactly what I needed took a bit of nutting out cause I live in Australia and our zones are a bit different.

[@debichats8634]

I just downloaded this because some of my favorite homesteaders and gardeners are using it! I’m delighted to see you’re going to use it too! All I need to do is figure it out! I need help getting ready to plant when, where and how so I believe it will be beneficial to everyone! I guess I need to look for videos….and other things that will help me! My garden area is small….and I have 2 GreenStalks a lot of pots and growbags. I’m wondering how you contend with all the varmits we have in Virginia….rabbits, groundhogs, deer….I am putting a lot on my deck and most critters don’t get on it so far. I may have to put up a gate! I’m excited to get going now!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@thegardnersgarden]

Can’t wait to see the new setup and how this season goes for you!

[@jasondolan7181]

Hoop house looks great!

[@vonnapier860]

Thanks Kaylee! ❤

[@rk-xv4km]

Best of luck with the gardens and bees this year!

[@Norunormii]

Awesome what your doing.

[@jimgree]

Your a wonderful person, thank you.

[@aloras405]

I keep track of planting and dates by taking pictures on my phone. I always take a picture, even if it is just one of the started trays with the plant tags.

[@TheHoneystead]

That’s a great idea too!

[@user-nn8pi2zv7l]

Your setup looks fantastic! I've got a small backyard veggie garden. It is hard work!😅

[@found1thatworks]

Thanks for sharing. It would be nice if the software sent notifications to assist with reminders.

[@missdes8775]

Why was the dog baby smart enough to know to put the rock down when told ❤❤❤ too cute 😂

[@TheHoneystead]

Lol!

[@CultivationWithChristy]

I just upgraded mine. Im super excited about it as well!

[@TheHoneystead]

I did too!!! This is going to help my brain soooo much!

I got in with seedtime during crowdfunding - got the lifetime subscription. The layout is brand new so this will be 1st season with that - looking forward to that as well. Also when you add the crops - don’t forget adding the variety since that can change the harvest times a bit. The solution is super and Paul and his dad are wonderful! Glad you are happy with it as well - I really want them to succeed! Not only knowing on harvest dates but sitting down in the winter and putting in everything ya want to grow and having a calendar of when each of the seeds need planted is so nice!! You can filter the calendar to just show harvest only or seed only so it’s less cluttered. Your new dog is adorable btw!! Love the hive stands!! I only have 3 hives but now you make me want to build some of those stands! lol. Question - always heard only move hives 2’ or 2 miles. So how are you gonna handle the move? Add some items at the entrances so they realize they need to do a new orientation flight? Moving at night as well? Look forward to seeing how ya handle it!! Best of luck this season! Hope all your girls made it thru winter - so far (knock on wood) all 3 of mine are still kicking it up here in Ohio. Still have a while yet before we get to 50s over night.

[@TheHoneystead]

Yeah I am learning Seedtime and really loving it! This time of year, if I lock them up in their hive for a few days it won’t hurt them so I plan to do it when it is cold out :)

[@TheHoneystead]

I’ll do it when I move them and they will do an orientation flight and learn their new surroundings!

[@brendahayes1011]

Thank you for sharing!! I love watching y'all!! I sure do miss your mama, will she be back on there?😊

[@TheHoneystead]

I am sure she will, she just wears many hats and her personal projects require her full focus:)

[@crystalshabazian1178]

this is amazing!!! i have ADHD so organization and remembering dates is a weak point for me. i also struggle with gardening because it's a lot of work and no instant gratification so i think this year i'll get myself popsicles or some kind of treat so if i work on the garden i get a little reward. i know it sounds silly but i'll do what i have to so i can overcome this barrier and do the things i want to do

[@TheHoneystead]

Lol not crazy at all!!!! I feel like this is really going to help me sooo much!!!

[@aloras405]

ADHD here too. I take pictures on my phone, even if it is just the started trays with labeling tags. That way it automatically saves the date and I have a visual record of what did. I make a album of each year so I can go back and look at things and how far things come in a season. That helps me with visualizing what is coming up.

[@crystalshabazian1178]

@@aloras405 this is such a great idea!! thank you ❤️

[@dlthomas81]

high from Central Virginia . How did you get your high tunnel? Was it a kit or did you build it from plans? If so, where did you buy the greenhouse or the plans?

[@sarahmiranda7130]

Did you film putting up the high tunnel?

[@ariedekker7350]

Is 1 life enough with what you do?

[@TheHoneystead]

I wouldn’t say at the scale that I do, but on a smaller scale yes!

[@jrose353]

Maybe you’ve already done this, but do you have an “easy as 1 2 3 bees for the person who’s never even thought of bees before!”? I mean in an ideal world we’d all have a bursting healthy flow hive right? But I’ve seen canning jar hives… I would love bees, but literally haven’t a clue on cheap beekeeping.

[@TheHoneystead]

I am working on a ebook and a course :)

[@elenaklasing6266]

@@TheHoneysteadThat’s fantastic news. Bee keeping is the next project on my punch list after establishing my apothecary garden. Working thru your /Jill’s online course right now. So appreciative of everything you do for us. Thank you! ❤

[@mucksforbucks6343]

Thought this program was free but it won't let me do anything for free. I have no income not until much later this year was going to recommend it to my friend but not now. I wasn't even given an option for a free anything

[@TheHoneystead]

You should be able to go to the calendar part and add your crop.
