[@davidjslack]

I learn more from the “failures” than the successes. Thanks for being so transparent and taking us along the journey.

[@ourfloridagarden4191]

The millipedes are working over time in our garden as well. Bless their hearts.

[@CharlesGann1]

Happy Anniversary on year one. Its been a big challenges. So glad Nick is rolling with the punches. Pete you are the king in vision. Really takes a lot creativity! Thanks for all you guys do!

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Thanks Charles 🙌

[@maggiemaeclune4046]

I love this rea look that is not just a highlight real, this is truth here. Great work!

[@shangrilahomestead9930]

Thank you for the video Pete. Your Bamboo looks spectacular! Happy Birthday to Nick and he has done amazing with that market garden! It would be great if Nick could start offering the garden harvesting online and I would definitely be a customer!😊

[@dianne.murielrobidoux9008]

Superb colourful garden! I’m no specialist but would suggest you search internet there are flowers repellant for insects, slugs etc. And also trimming some squash leaves will increase quantity now some suggest tying up. You know much more than I do so… ! Good luck you put so much work in that beautiful garden

[@barbarataylor8101]

Happy Birthday, Mr.Rooster is sounding off in the background! The place is looking great, we appreciate the struggle crops. Wishing you great fortitude!

[@MichaelSharpBLACKDRUMMIKE]

Very inspiring to get out and pound dirt!

[@ljgerken]

Add pumpkins, gourds, squash on trellices, sweet potatoes, peanuts. Try some Florida-friendly hybrids. Start some onions and garlic sets/seeds next month for next Spring harvest. You can add some Dr. Bronner's Peppermint soap to the water spray along with some uncoated aspirin to discourage bugs and stimulate production, respectively.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Thanks for the tips!

[@charlotteking8123]

Nick I completely empathize and have had similar issues with the same plants. Carrots in raised beds that never rooted well, beets same, cucamelons with pickle worms...I have to plant earlier and use BT religiously ahead of time. About to strew various beans around with the rains for experimental cover cropping. The okra is doing well. Cucumbers did famously but with the end of May the crop stopped. Yes as I've said, Jim has a special microclimate and with the numerous compost applications and his brackish water (plus years of doing it) is not typical of what we can do, just starting out. Happy belated birthday!

[@chayh.6249]

Just looking SO fantastic. So happy for y’all - great vision and lots of hard work!

[@iamGrowing]

Great video. We’re moving to Florida in two weeks and we’re insane gardeners. It’s good to see what does and doesn’t do well. Garden still looks nice.

[@Tropicgarden]

Happy birthday 🎉, welcome to the tropics, summer in Florida, monsoon season= high humidity, tons of bugs and no breeze. I’m trying Asian crops. It may work 50/50 I’m surprised you have as much as you do!

[@bonniebon7335]

Congrats, Pete!

[@joanneganon7157]

I hope you had a Happy birthday Nick🎊💥🌞🥳🎂🐦🎂. I don't know much about your growing season ,other than what Uncle Pete has tought me. Keep Growin On👍. JO JO IN VT 💞

[@BlackJesus8463]

yup

[@michael1sukenik]

Looks like a great job, especially for the 1st year in Florida! I wish more people will grow edibles organically in FL, so both people and wildlife would have more real food!

[@janetzveare7459]

Loved the update! Nick is still rocking it! To have cucumbers and any greens this time of year, here in Florida, is a success! Most people are wrapping it up and shutting t it down right about now. Would love to see what he grows over the summer!

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Thanks! I think Nick might take some time off this summer and head north. We plan on cover cropping until fall.

[@debraramos6942]

Sweet potatoes and okra do well

[@audreybarnes6527]

Hope you are well Pete.

[@wishitwashomestead547]

Where did you get all the compost from? I love the Port Richey stuff but I am out of the quarantine area. Love the videos especially with Jim. Just wish they were aired closer to when you shoot them so we can follow along with the planting times.

[@spindaddy]

Tempura blossoms are grand also..

[@shortari5543]

Wow! It looks amazing. ❤🎉

[@mwnemo]

Yup the lesson of large tomatoes in Florida, they just break your heart ❤️ 😂

[@lindabonomi7274]

GREAT video!

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@delciolosch]

Good job

[@benanderson3041]

Good work sir

[@karenodaniel3496]

Where do you sell your produce? Beautiful gardens!

[@lelorfi]

Awesome! How do you irrigate a garden this size, and how do you control weeds?

[@janew5351]

Talk about the electric wire around the plot. Would this work to prevent raccoons entering?

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Yes usually

[@jhost0311]

How old is that avocado now? It was a 3gal when you planted it right? That thing is huge now. I planted a 3gal like 3 years ago and it’s maybe 3.5-4ft tall now. No fruit.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

It was planned 2021 and has been pruned multiple times.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

The key is shade in the first few years of development.

[@eugeniasrus6688]
