It was really nice to see the diversity of the squash varieties and melons. I was glad that the camera caught their names and image so that I can find the seeds on my own and try to grow those suited for my area. Thanks John for all your efforts.

I have to give credit to you, John, you tackle your weakness of word pronunciation like a champ. It's a true expression of your (strong) character that you don't shy away from this :) Awesome video, bringing an experience to my laptop that I may otherwise not have. I wish I could be there, it's so exciting to see.

the little gems we call 'gem squash' in South Africa. Its a main squash in our country. we eat like 200 each every season. Recipe - Cut them in half, boil for 10 minutes in water. Take out and place creamy sweetcorn inside and cheese on top. place that baby into the oven at 180 degrees celcius for 20 minutes... enjoy the feelings of your taste buds... hmmmmmmm

While I appreciate your comments, I have to admit, I was not an english major, nor have I specialized in spanish or french. I may massacre many of the words, but im not striving for grammatical correctness. If I had to perfectly pronounce all the names, I may not have made the video. The purpose of this video is to share ALL the varieties of squash that is available to open peoples eyes to all the heirloom varieties that are available even if not pronounced properly.

Did you grow your Kakai pumpkins in 100% compost plus Azomite etc, or did you mix some top soil with the compost? I love growing pumpkins, but I am not sure if pumpkins do well in 100% compost without some soil of some kind being added.

@opcn1812 жыл бұрын
While I really loved seeing you go through all of the pumpkins I couldn't help but wonder if whoever you had holding the camera would have done a better job on those names. It's okay if you have some trouble getting the words out right, I myself cannot spell very well at all. When I have something that needs to be spelled right I own up to my unique set of characteristics and hand the job off, so that it gets done well, I think that you might benefit from the same technique.

Some of those pumpkin names are hard to pronounce, but some of them you were deliberately trying to mispronounce! You walked past some of the pumpkins on the table--the very first set. You said that people must not grow their standard red watermelon, but must grow orange ones. Where are the seeds for those? And they're definitely not in the States, I can assure you!

@riverstun6 жыл бұрын
If you know you are butchering the names, why read them out? Just let the labels speak for themselves. Say "Here's a pretty red one" rather than "here's a susshini, a cracknek yelloo, a Sfagnetto squish". It's just incredibly grating. It's just a non-stop display of your inability to pronounce even the most basic words. I gave up when you turned "Espagnole" into "Espangey" . Eitehr do it properly, or dont bother. Just let the video speak for itself while you describe the squash in whatever language you can manage. Better yet, add information, like "this one is great for arid climates" - now THAT would be useful. As it is, its just a video of you proving you can butcher 20 languages in 5 minutes, and not much more. ps. *eedless, the label you couldnt read? Try "Seedless"
