[@Mugen3812]

[@Huntrry94]

Thank you so much for all you do for the fans! Also you are a big reason I got into gardening so thank you ♥️ love catching up with all your videos!

[@SundaiLove]

My mom has been in the hospital for 3-4 weeks now. Just moved her 2 days ago to a rehab facility. Her nurses at the hospital, loved that we all have gardens. One lord love him he has been trying to start an indoor container garden. I sent him several starter plants lol I think I started something other nurses wanted some as well. So Plants to the hospital for the nurses. Cuban Oregano, Lemon grass, Moringa, Cow peas, and a Serrano pepper plant. Love that I can share. I live in Central Fl and do sustainable food gardening for survival and just so I can eat healthy. (Major food allergies) You should try Moringa. It's a tree, but the entire thing is edible. Seed pods, leaves, roots etc. It is also one of the healthiest plants on the planet.

[@YoSarahRaps]

My favorite vegetable is any plant that an animal eats so it can give me meat. I love your gardening videos! They’re so relaxing…

[@celialeekendrick6109]

Red chille peppers, roasted garlic chips, in olive oil, in a jar. Put on your noodles, yum

[@MH-nr4cj]

I came for the house hunt and, to be honest, I stayed for all the good vibes and the gardening. Love your energy!

[@heymoniquehey]

ME TOO! I'm so hooked, this is my dream!

Yay a gardening vlog! I’ve been gardening since 2020 and it’s amazing! Currently growing lots of romaine lettuce cuz i love ceaser salads lolll

[@SundaiLove]

Omg! That’s something I just can’t get to grow 😭😭 too dang hot! Keeps booting. Gunna try again when it cools down

[@iceo1535]

Never had much of a green thumb, but it's never too late to learn! I feel really inspired by how beautiful and delicious your veggie garden looks so I will definitely be putting your veggie guide to good use next summer. Thanks! ☺

[@SundaiLove]

Oh yes it’s not as hard as you might think 🥰give some greens a try ❤

[@cynthiam4016]

Love the veggies you are growing! You can make stuffed bell peppers with marinara, pickled jalapeños with onion and carrots, and jalapeños poppers. Filipino eggplant torta. Sky is the limit with what you have.

[@lejo1233]

if we harvest too much we make little bags with fruit and veggies and put them on the gardenfence to take for bypassers for free

[@janabandr7691]

So excited to see your garden getting bigger ✨🍅🥬

[@pharbear]

Chile/Pepper Recipe Ideas: - Hot Sauce (Louisiana style) - Sambal Oelek / Chili Garlic Sauce - Pickled peppers - (Fruit of choice) Pepper Jelly

[@ghostfoxx3502]

My uncle would make pickled chilis from his garden, you can also pickle bell peppers. My grandma is happy to see others gardening now days. (She grew up on a farm back in the 30's) Also, you could make a spicy homemade tomato sauce, You can cann it as well.

[@kapilasenevirathna1754]

I'm wochin a first time you're videos. Your smile is beautiful.....❤❤

[@hollaatthekid1796]

Sooooo coool!!! Give the tomatoes to a small local restaurant as a gift if you are running out of people to give them to. 😊

[@debbiependleton8507]

All those tomato's, time to can them for winter. The beans that are overly ripe, you can peel them, let them dry out for a day and then put them in a paper bag in the back of the freezer for next year planting. Next you should get about 3-4 chickens for eggs. Those are always fun. Have a wonderful and Blessed day!

[@ariannaottaviani4033]

For the bell peppers: cook them in the oven and store them in air tight containers, covered in olive oil. They're soooo good!

[@thecreatorlaurenchi]

watching your gardening videos even tho I’m 20 and I know damn well having my own garden is not in my near future🤣. love your videos Sundai thanks for another great one!

[@TenYen4796]

No garden this year but next year I'm all in 😊 Tomatoes, peppers, carrots, beets, water melon, green beans, straw berries, swiss chard, grapes, and of course wild black berriers and raspberries that has taken over a few spots. Chickens? Not sure yet...my neighbor have bees and the honey is good.

[@janicemata5185]

I do not have the space for a garden, nor do I have a green thumb, but I absolutely love your gardening videos. You should definitely do an Autumn garden video, and maybe try some herbs. Lots of love 🍄🍋🌶

[@missjackson5198]

Laughter is guaranteed whilst watching your videos!!😂 Best medicine of life!!

[@oldmarriedcouple1]

Love Love Love your gardening videos!! Girl, you need to get yourself a dehydrator!! So many fun snacks you can make dehydrating fruits and veggies. My family's favorite dehydrated snack is apple slices! I can't make enough. Then there's sliced tomatoes with pizza seasonings or Italian seasoning on them. Besides eating them like tomato chips I use the tomato slices in sauces and soups also. You can dehydrate tomato slices with no seasoning and then pulverize them to make a powder. That powder can thicken sauces (it's just like using tomato paste), add to salads or smoothies. Oh, then there's zucchini slices with Italian seasoning. Another is cucumber slices with salt, pepper and vinegar spritzed on it. :) You can put any spices/herbs on dehydrated veggies! Be creative! These are just a few ideas on dehydrated veggies and fruit. The sky is the limit!!

[@That_TexasGirl]

Yay I was so excited you made a garden video!!! I also love how you showed what you did with the food you grew too! 🪴

[@kawaii_ninja]

our weather has been in the 100s everyday so I'm waiting impatiently for some milder temperatures so I can start growing some leafy greens! (also lowkey waiting on that caesar dressing recipe 👀)

[@BeComingNyrell]

Those red peppers look absolutely delicious!

[@jessicamiller3614]

Would love to see a fall plant with me video!!

[@opippy]

the "this land is our land!" at 4:14 and the "rollin'!" at 5:13 cracked me all the way up! 😂😂😂 but seriously, your garden is really giving me all the ideas. love it!

[@goddesspa]

If you roast the tomatoes before stewing them the flavor gets so intense and delicious. That goes for almost all veggies. Also the peel nicely after roasting. Thanks for inspiring me!

[@dianebaker5243]

You have done a great job with all your vegetable plants. 👍 🥰

[@hanafruit98]

I love grape tomatoes and I'm definitely going to look into trying to grow some of my own!

[@sendaisweetie5297]

Hi Sundai! If you're interested in other color green beans I recommend the yellow ones. They're called "wax beans." Cook them all together for a colorful stir-fry! Like a rainbow 'green beans almondine.' Yum!

[@lanat9513]

Yes please fall garden videos 😊😊

[@queenfedorathemagnificent]

You should try an eggplant and tomato pie. It's so good.

[@letyoufindme]

A recipe for the peppers is DiSanXian (地三鲜). The main ingredients are potatoes, peppers (bell peppers, but you can also add spicier ones) and eggplant. It's a popular dish in Northern China. I think you might like it (also you can use a lot of peppers and not really taste them) Another recipe recipe for the tomatoes could be Chinese Tomatoes and Egg stir fry. It's a pretty simple dish, takes maybe 5/10 minutes to put together. And you can use quite a few of the beef steak 🍅

[@SundaiLove]

Nice! Thank you

[@ItssAliyah]

I’m excited to see how the peaches turn out. Your garden is so impressive✨🍑🥬🫑🍆🌶️ Are you going to consider a fruit garden?

[@moda78z]

Sundai! You can feed the whole neighborhood! It looks amazing! 😍

[@Magicguy33]

That salad looked so fire 🔥

[@Peachyladee]

Looks amazing. Yes, please do a fall gardening video. My garden has been moved so much, I need to start over. Now would be perfect.

[@sayitisntso2997]

Hi Sundai, I love your gardening series, can you make a video on where you get seeds for your garden

[@kimberlybrown-feay5902]

I love how you and your cat seriously have a whole conversation together. 💜 🐈💜

[@whatsherface7258]

Raise your hand if you always like the video before it even starts like me 🥰

[@pabulumm]

ngl I had a bad week and this video was just what I needed to help me relax. If I can't garden myself (yet!), the next best thing is watching you do it haha :) thanks for sharing with us ❤

[@micalmilus1689]

You should make some rasta pasta with the peppers!!

[@dakoxuniverse]

I love watching these videos, it's very reminiscent of helping my grandma switch out vegetables in the spring/summer/fall in her garden 🥰 i know you throw recipes into vlogs pretty often, but i would love to see a compilation video of maybe all the recipes you make in a week with your vegetables! you have pretty big harvests, i think it would be really cool to see how you use all of it!

[@sleepysawada532]

Yesss sundai let’s all thrive with fall gardening together! 💖🍀🥬

[@BeComingNyrell]

Can you show us some egg plant recipes? I love egg plants but don't know how to cook it- aside from egg plant parmesan

[@kemicecormier5687]

I enjoy watching your garden grow!! I can’t wait to see how you switch it up in the fall.🥺🙏🏽🤍

[@ashleyyyyay9133]

Best veggie : 🥦

[@cstpa1]

i like pickled jalapeños with mozzarella cheese on oven baked breads // like cuban and french..with fresh tomato. i grew a lot of peppers last year. i don't like that premade seasoning they sell off the shelfs.. I go for more of homemade recipe for the spice.. garlic/sugar mainly

[@stephaniemarquez5167]

You can make pickled jalapenos!

[@bellasmom84]

Awesome vid, just started gardening but this Texas sun is brutal. Can you make a video on how you plant your seeds and how often you water / fertilize. Congrats on a great harvest!

[@desireeworth6004]

Love the garden episodes! Best veggie definitely the jalapeños! gotta add that spice!

[@LilaBobina]

PLEASE drop a fall garden video AND guide

[@Moonlight_BoB]

Love, plant some bug repelant flowering plant. I use "stinking suzzy" marigolds and WHAT, A, GOD SEND. My leafy greens have been grateful. 💜💜💜🇹🇹

[@heymima1990]

You’re the reason I’m doing my research for when I get my tiny home so I can start a garden in my backyard. Definitely downloading your guide! 🙌🏽

[@jessielawrence407]

Yes to the fall plant video girl!

[@roamiblu1833]

I was hoping for a Sundai video on a Friday. I really needed this. No, really, truly, really needed this. Thank you!

[@mpusepitso2580]

Hey Sundai, I would love a fall veggie video and have you ever thought about making sun dried tomatoes and with chilli dry it and make crushed chilli with flakes. I have curly kale and collard greens and it's almost time to plant beetroot, pumpkin, corn and tomatoes.

[@SundaiLove]

Never thought of that!!! 😳 I use so much paprika too. I need to look into drying

[@mpusepitso2580]

It helps a lot and my favorite veggie is tomatoes. Also try lettuce, it's so easy to plant and you can make more salads!

[@minnielovealways]

You could sell the extra produce at a local farmers market if they have those in Japan also if you have recipes for eggplant please share!!

[@lungilenhlanhla2340]

Love this so much. Started my garden in 2019, pre the pandem…. And now, still thriving 😊 such content makes me so happy. Well done gworl ❤

[@Hazeldoreen]

I love watching your veggie garden. I can’t wait to have a balcony to start planting veggies and fruits. I actually enjoy planting and gardening but my space is limited. (Japan problems lol) but my favorite veggie would have to be 🧅🍅🥦🌶️

[@sigiwalla]

Vegetable garden looks beautiful and so is it’s yield!! I love your cooking it always looks bomb, gonna try out the pasta salad recipe soon. I’d love if you made a home cooking eat in a week video I’m a college student so I love these affordable, easy healthy meals you’re making. Thanks for the inspiring content Sundai 😊😊

[@SistahPunkStudios]

I just wanna say, you inspired me to plant a little pot of cherry tomatoes and mint on my fire escape in Brooklyn this summer. Thanks Sundai

[@madiii428]

I love a good tomato with some salt and pepper ❤ but i hope you do the fall gardening with us. Great reason to get started

[@msdetra]

Love watching you garden in all seasons, fall more than others. Favorite is kale, collard greens, and mustard greens. Southern girl here grew up gardening. Oh and absolutely love purple peas!!!

[@SundaiLove]

Girl help me !! What’s a mustard green 😩 is it really different from collards ? 😭 I eat “ greens” and never thought about what they actually were until now that o wanna cook them 😂. Grew some collards but the bugs got them before I could cook them

[@tianaveevlogs]

yes lets fall garden together! i took your advice and researched what to grow in my zone and i wrote down some things for late september/october. im excited !!

[@theteachingaddict]

Just what this rainy day needed, a Sundai gardening video. 🙌🏾

[@tirilchen7438]

you should definitely do some chili oil! so you have that spice ready any time of the year. (also a pretty awesome gift)

[@Lifewithkimb25]

I am also a *eat in one sitting* pasta salad girl lmao it is so good on a hot summer day!

[@SundaiLove]

😂👏🏾❤️

[@kettlierobert3977]

𝐈 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐢 ❤❤

[@cstpa1]

[@sabinal17]

Yes for fall. My hubby did not have any time for the summer gardening and I am trying to encourage him to do fall gardening 👨‍🌾

[@BubblesMcGhee]

Thank you for putting together the summer garden guide. ❤❤

[@Lifeoffaridah]

I heard you complain about the green bell pepper 🫑 you can also use them in fried rice 🍚😊

[@canata377]

I love these, you really did so good w your garden but loved watching it cultivate over the past months. Also, I need to find your tuna cake recipe!

[@EchoOne67]

You could dry out the chili peppers and once they have dried out throw them into a blender and make chili flakes. As for the green beans blanch then add then to a tomato sauce the add your spaghetti.

[@bri_yamina]

IM LIVING FOR THE GARDEN!!!

[@fundash5124]

I couldn't watch your videos for some time, but now I'm catching up on the ones I missed. I truly enjoy your content; it reminds me of my goals and provides a positive and enjoyable vibe.😊

[@brooklynkimmie]

Yaaaaaay Sundai 😊 I'm super happy to watch you. I could watch hours of your videos❤

[@SundaiLove]

🥹❤

[@brooklynkimmie]

You the best Sundai, have a blessed weekend ❤

[@ClassyDdiamond]

You are really tempting me to build a indoor garden.

[@kiarafraz]

Just the healthy inspiration I needed!

[@ayb1470]

This was such a relaxing watch. Yes, please do a autumn gardening video as well!!!!

[@Emgee78]

I want to try growing balcony veggies and herbs soon, so I'd totally love to see you do a Fall garden.

[@SundaiLove]

Yay ❤

[@carlapotter2530]

I love your vegetable garden, now I want to plant one next year if the Lord bless me to see another year. Yours is beautiful

[@BeeAelia]

I’m so glad there’s a guide, because my entire life I’ve been wanting a garden/greenhouse, but for some reason, I just can’t grow anything! I’ll try once more with your guide! I’m super excited about it! Wish me luck!😂😊🎉

[@SundaiLove]

Could be the timing. That was the hardest thing for me to learn ❤

[@purrfectsatan]

you transport me to such a safe place when i watch your videos!!! my brain is at peace now, thank u

[@BubblesMcGhee]

It would be sofa king dope to enjoy a “plant witchoo” fall garden video!

[@joanarodrigues7452]

Hi! Love your videos! U can do ''gaspacho à alentejana'' with the green bellpepper and tomato. u can eat it in pieces or crush it and it's like a cold soup!

[@actuallyalexis]

Garden goals! You gave me so much confidence to start my garden I got my first tomato harvest and I still can’t believe it! Can’t wait for the fall garden!!

[@lesleesoto1052]

Girl with those Chilis you can make: -Chili -Marinaded Cucumber Salad -Put it in asian soups like pho -Larb -Chili Paste for dishes -Zesty Mocktails -Eat like you would banchan if you can handle it -Curry The options are endless! Best of luck!

[@Curlmazon]

Definitely would love to see a fall gardening video. They are informative and relaxing to watch

[@imanaub4100]

Love to see a fully green garden. 🍅

[@BonnieCreoleSpirit]

Your garden gives such lush vibes and makes me so hungry! LOL 🍆🥬🍅❤

[@AnarchyMavis]

You can make tomato sauce and freeze it in small portions to use through the winter!

[@Benny8692]

Would love an autumn gardening guide!

[@Tebogo2014]

Definitely here for a fall plant with me. Can you also give tips on how you kept the pests away? I once tried to start a vegetable garden and most of the produce were filled with worms 😭

[@cavianguardian]

More videos like this please I can’t wait to see your fall garden. The best tastes vegetable is kale & broccoli

[@taetaegumi3428]

Pleaaase do a video on how you freeze and can your veggies !!!

[@yeevita]

Portion them before freezing. You probably already know but if you freeze them separately first, then put them in your freezing container, they will stay separated, so you can use as you like. You can also freeze together a bag of say all your soup ingredients. The whole bag can go into winter soup from the freezer, in winter when you really want that tomato and pepper flavor. You could also blend them into salsa or whatever, then freeze into portions. Thaw, add oil, mix and voila! Winter dressing. I bet your fish grill is perfect for your eggplants. You can grill, cook your eggplants, then freeze that for winter. Make your babaganoush and freeze it, for when it is not summer.

[@carlosdaniels7266]

Great pasta salad idea! 5:47
