Jess, thank you so much for making this - we appreciate the fact that good information can be presented in a way that is useful. I would rather support your Amazon channel than those KZbin channels that repeatedly try to get viewers to buy their trademark seed kits, grow bags, etc., during their videos. I’m looking for honest information, not personal marketing. You’re an awesome teacher, girl!

La Rue Siens Jess your videos are great and so helpful. I am in Bend, OR and it is snowing right now so there is plenty of time to watch and gain much needed info on my small garden. Love, love your sweet smile and I laugh when I read all the wants for a sweet Miah in their life. I'm 83 and it's probably best I stick with a small garden. Cloning an 80ish Miah is a fantasy for me. I would be looking for a G Grandpa. Keep up you sweet spirit and I must say I love seeing your children helping you.

I have narrow paths in my garden because I am greedy and want more room to plant. lol I use a lot of 5 gallon buckets great for carrying dirt, mulch, harvest, tools, etc. I also use 3 gallon buckets, they might have them at Wal-mart in the deli department. 3 gallons are great for hanging spray bottles on the side and still have some room to carry things.

My new favorite tool are the large rectangular plastic cake tops from big Costco cakes. We have slugs and snails, and I have taken to growing flats of tender lettuces in them. I am probably going to use them to start seedlings now (maybe with those grow bags you mentioned), because somehow the snails stay out. At the moment I am working on a kind of combo outdoor kitchen/potting area so I can wash the earwigs off the leeks and chop off the dead parts and roots of whatever before they make it into the house. It's going near the bbq so it can do double duty. Gotta get one of those Hori-Hori knives!

I'm going to add the Garden Claw Gold (the blue version with gold bottom and curved handles, its adjustable in height). This tool has been invaluable to me for over 22 years (I've had the same one all that time and have not been nice to it as far as care or use). All of my ground gardens, and gardens for many many others, have been prepped with this tool! It is super easy to use and will cultivate a spot as good, and in some cases BETTER than, a gas rototiller. I kid you not. I'm a small female (5'1) and its easier on my body than fighting a piece of machinery!

I use it for planting and watering my flowers and veggies. I have had my black dump cart for about 7 years, mostly use it to carry my groceries from truck to the house. Only takes one trip...lol. I love both my carts and use them all the time at 62 years old. Now I have started using my golf cart for these things as well, The carts get kinda heavy when full and trying to pull somewhere.

I got those bags off amazon after you spoke about them in a previous video. I love them! I use an empty dog food can to fill each larger one up. I fold it down over the side and fill up. Very easy. I also re use k-cups and place the smaller ones inside of the k-cup for seed starting. this seems to work nice with the small ones, since they seem to keep them from getting too wet. The larger ones i use for up potting and also I use the trays like you or lasagna foil pans. Of course they are all still on my porch, since it is still too cold here. waiting and waiting some more.

I just got the largest Gorilla cart and fully loaded I can easily pull and dump its contents. I’m 65 and we cultivate and garden on 3 of our 25 acres. When I’m far from the house, I can load up my tools, Kleenex box, 2 thermos bottles, a lawn chair and attachable umbrella for frequent breaks PLUS the materials needed(compost, soil, gravel, and whatever else. I love it and I read over 200 reviews before buying it. Two things to note: Do not damage the box because a few people got one where the bolt holes didn’t line up and they said customer service is “horrible “ so you’re ahead to return it rather than try to get missing pcs. Second, turn the loaded cart in a wide radius so the handles’s axel (?) doesn’t break!

What you have is a dibbler (with the R). A dibble tool is a long-handled tool used in forestry. Knowing this may make it easier for your viewers to find one for themselves. I have several after I went on a hunt for one some years ago and found them to be entirely unknown in the U.S. Rrrg. In the end, my family kept their eyes open and by then end, I had one from an antique store (my favorite), two wooden ones from a vendor at a Baker Creek festival and another from whoknowswhere. A very handy tool, indeed! ❤️ your videos! Many thanks for sharing your life with us and may God’s richest blessings be upon your family! ...by the way, I’m growing Orange Roussoloni this year, too, because I, too, watched that video Luke made those years ago and had the same reaction you did.

I have had mixed feelings about those little grow bags. They are very convenient to use, however I have noticed in past years my plants in the pouches seemed more root bound than plants grown in the plastic pots. Also, while they are degradable, you will be seeing them in your compost bin for at least 2 winters. That gorilla cart has saved me some backache however, 100% recommend.

I have a hori hori and also a shovel from Mennards, both heavy duty and only about $6 a few years ago. I always do the Crocodile Dundee joke: That's not a shovel...THAT'S a shovel!

The Hori Hori looks like a must-have. I have DE but will get some Neem oil and a black light. I only had a few tomatoes this year and they did not get any worms or pests, but planning on many more tomatoes so want to be prepared. I will take a Miah once the cloning has been perfected lol

When I was young (and had no money) my gardening tool was a long serrated kitchen knife, I used it for everything.

I've ordered the little planting bags off of this, I freecycled a ton of small pots last year and have just got involved with another community garden project and have gazillions of seedlings I've sown for them and nothing to put them in. Arriving today. Fingers crossed...

Just saw the post from your friends, Meg & Ben Hollar (HOLLAR HOMESTEAD). They finally close on their property on Tuesday (4/30)! You must be so happy for them! They also just hit 20K Subscribers. Dual blessings! Best wishes from Kate in Olympia, WA - 4/28/2019.

This is absolutely great information. You gotta let the tools work for you. I already bought that little hand shovel tool(barebones) from your previous link, and i love it!!!! I really like the garden cart , just the thought that it lifts up and you can dump the dirt on site is awesome. Also, i like that cobra weeder- I'll be getting that as well. Thanks for all information. it makes a world of difference on how one gardens. Thanks for taking the time to give out this info. God Bless you, Jess, and your harvest to come. Bertha in TEXAS.

Heifers and tools... 😂 I love it. Since I'm in an urban area I have to say that my hand tiller has saved me. I have a small backyard and because I'm a renter, tearing up a large portion of the yard isn't an option. Plus there are utility lines running under ground. My Corona hand tiller from Lowe's is tough and so user friendly. I Loooove it. It has a foot peg, very large prongs, gel grips, and a clump release button for when you get a chunk stuck. You just push that button with the palm of your hand and it pops out instead of having to flip the whole thing over and pry it out with your fingers. Side note: I also make a natural form of pepper spray with hot sauce, and sprinkle cayenne pepper to help keep the stray cats and squirrels out of my garden. So far so good.

Always love these tool videos. I think I have a good share of your recommendations now. I do want to get the hori hori tool next. You're the 2nd youtuber I've seen to talk about it. Thank you! 💕☀️🌱🌷☺

Love this! Another idea: periodic videos featuring your “empties”, I.e. seed packets you’ve used all the way up recently. Would you buy them again? Were they empty because they were your favorite? etc.

You could do the seasonally, in other words, packets you used up this spring, or packets you used up over the summer.
