[@princessbrown7349]

Show us how you make your pesto and what kind of bag do u use freeze it

[@1MSally1965]

Just as an FYI you can throw that basil pesto into the freezer once made and break off pieces as you need it. Also, you can throw dill right into the freezer in a bag and snip off frozen bits as you need it. I do this all the time! Many herbs need no additional treatment.

[@shesgonecountryfarms6281]

[@jenniferward5216]

Tucker should have his own website.

[@explained3799]

THANK you, James. I developed a beautiful, huge, flower-laden daisy bush in San Francisco, just by removing the flowers as soon as they began to wilt. I have a basil plant in the garden that needs to be topped off asap. Am loving my garden this year! Am planting winter veggies this year. Thanks for helping me connect the dots. Tuck is one precious vegetable lover, no???

[@deannewilliams3321]

I’ve really been getting into basil and oregano this year, mostly for their antiviral properties, but I add it to almost everything I cook, especially chicken dishes... mmm, so good! Parsley is another one I love and is my secret ingredient for fantastic potato salad, shhh, don’t tell anyone lol. Parsley is a natural chelator for removing heavy metals, cilantro too. Luv me some Tuck 🥒💕

[@deannewilliams3321]

And PS...raw carrots instantly get rid of heartburn.

Hi James! I have been binge watching your channel and learning so much that I can immediately apply to my own garden. I can't believe that it took a New Jersey guy to introduce Bill Mollison to an Aussie guy. I'm currently reading one of his books on Permaculture Design and feel like I am drinking from a fire hose. Tuck is the best vegetarian dog I know.

[@TheBotanyGirl]

I love basil for its magical aroma and I have almost 20 basil plants in my small terrace garden! 🌱✨

Great video. Love watching Tuck. He knows what's good to eat.

Thanks for the great video! I have 2 basil plants. One is 4 ft. tall. When it started getting white blooms, I pinched them off. They just keep getting taller & bushier, very healthy. Also have dill, rosemary, cilantro, dill is huge too.

[@andyparker1931]

I love watching your vids, you have so much positiv energy! Love Tuck :) I just started gardening this year. My Tomatoes got sick and had to forfit them :( My 3 plants round zuchini died but got 10 nice ones off of them. Beans and Jalapenos grew like crazy :) Peppers not 1 on 4 plants, my Basil was awesome, I keept them small cause we use alot. Cucumbers just a few which made me sad. But I will do it all again next year. Keep on rolling!

[@heathw5391]

Thank you! We're going into spring now, so this is really timeous information.

[@smithy4121]

Thanks my basil has pretty much been slug or snail food this year. It didn't really stand a chance. I'm going to build some of those pallet raised beds you did though for next year instead of growing in the ground so its easier on my back so hopefully they'll be a little safer from the slugs and snails. Tuck is so funny no sooner you put your bit of pepper down he came and nicked it 😂 we've had quite a cold wet August and beginning of September in the uk so some of my plants are struggling a bit.

[@ohio_gardener]

I plant Basil every year among the tomato plants, and it grows huge. I have to keep cutting it back all summer long to keep it from going to seed. The tomatoes and basil make great Bruschetta which can be frozen for later use during the winter.
