Someone FAMOUS Visited Us Today!!!

[@inarainyplace]

I've been a Curtis Stone subscriber for well over a year. He's a goldmine of information and the best no-nonsense teacher out there. So glad you were able to get him out to your garden. Thanks Wranglerstar.

[@kevinhornbuckle]

He suggests 2X4s for supporting net covers. Instead consider galvanized half inch dia. electric conduit. It is cheap; can get in 10' lengths; won't rust or soak up water; can be bent to need; can slip over rebar stakes; can be joined/intersected with off the shelf parts; can be zip tied easily to hold nets or drip lines; can be re-used for other things; etc.

[@now1more]

Or PVC. I do prefer galvanized though.

[@Enjoy_my_1st_Amendment]

No pvc. It will sag considerably out in the elements under its own weight. Conduit, top poles of chain link fence or heavy gauge electric fence wire. Sand bag the bottom here and there and your good to go.

[@sarahalan1392]

This was an awesome collaboration! Thank you!

[@seanc7151]

I think you and Mrs W need a HUGE THANK YOU from me!!! This video led me to Curtis' channel and it totally changed what I want to do with my life. I am going to convert my dead yard to garden. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

[@barbedstar6480]

I use main line tubing with smaller tubing coming off. H.D. has mini spray heads with extendable shafts and each can be either run full, turned down or turned off. So you can really control when and where the water goes. Spray heads come in a variety of spray patterns. The whole system is on battery powered timers with an in-line filter closest to the tap, then the timer, and then the 4 way spliter with each having an on/off servicing 4 main lines. Nice to have it all work on its own, though you are constantly adjusting for plant needs. Great to be gone for the day or two and know the garden is safe and happy. Good job, Curtis and Wranglerstars....

[@richardcooper6744]

Love the collaboration! Two smart people with great information and great channels! Its good to sit and listen. Thanks!!!

[@ducttapeful]

This is why i love this channel so much. Not all of the content has something for me to learn about skill whise that would pertain to me. But i can still learn about life by watching yalls patience and loving personality. This video is actually quite helpful because this is my first year doing a garden. Thank you for this.

[@michaelmakortoff9308]

I loved seeing two of my favourite KZbin channels collide. Thanks for this.

[@jetjazz05]

Wow, this video was the absolute best beginner's guide to planting I've ever seen. Really comprehensive but simple, easy to absorb and at the same time not lacking in depth.

[@jeffstout3469]

While I am obsessed with all things Wranglerstar, I had to watch this one twice to make sure I didn't miss anything. Super educational and lots of great tips I can use. No more raised beds, just one long one! Thanks so much!

[@PawPawMountain]

Curtis is on top of the urban gardening for sure! Nice to see him visiting you guys! I see a great garden coming in the future......

[@tommathews3964]

Great collaboration with Curtis! I've been watching him for years! He and I don't do things exactly the same but I certainly have learned a lot from him. We grow different crops, for sure, but still learn tons from him. He doesn't have the time to invest in a lot of "long" crops (potatoes, peas, beans etc) but really is an expert on "short" crops and quick turnover. He is a master at intensive, rotational, succession plantings that yield quickly and are very marketable in his area. His microgreen (sunflower, pea and radish for the most part) production in his greenhouse is a sight to behold! Those crops are turning over in 10 days or so......One thing he didn't mention here is that he does the majority of it on land (back yards, vacant lots etc) that he doesn't own in an urban setting. His sense of organization amazes me...wish I were better at it!

[@wranglerstar]

It's very interesting. Mrsw

[@HeadWestOn90]

This was a great video! Thanks Mr and Mrs W, and Curtis!! Can't wait to see how you do the gardens at your new place and what systems you put in there!

[@jamesprigioni]

Curtis is a great farmer and has extensive knowledge on the subject. Plus he is a great guy and I bought his book! Loved the collaboration

[@wranglerstar]

It was great to have him here

[@kenpepperbenton4579]

James! You have a lot of knowledge as well. I watch all your videos!

[@grow4lyfe768]

Just subbed to your channel James! And Curtis' I'm going to get his book

[@photoshopbattles848]

I have been watching you for years James. Curtis should go and see your garden! :)

[@wranglerstar]

ken benton Glad you mentioned this. I'll got check out james prigioni s' channel. MrsW

[@ericchristensen7605]

I was pleased to see you collaborate with Curtis Stone, and acquire some insight to his enterprise. I have been following his work almost as long as your own. You will definitely improve your harvest by pursuit of the low labor crops first - fruit trees - squash and berries that do well in your climate. Then the greens and other veggies will fill your time and you will be prepared to barter your crop surplus. It will become a great management education tool for Jack. It will take more time than expected to acquire all of the equipment and supplies to grow your endeavor.

[@EarlReagan]

Cody, as I watch more and more of your videos and watching Curtis's video with yall. I feel like I get to know you and your family more. I was homeschooled my whole life and my wife decided to homeschool our child and this has been the best decision of our lives to continue to homeschool. I wish I had more time at home with my family to enjoy their time during the day and help my wife with teaching and other things.

[@CalebMayfieldMHF]

Two of my top five KZbin's in the same video! I moved to the family farm this year where after 9 years I am living somewhere that I can have a real garden. I have been implementing Curtis's methods and my garden has been going crazy. Looking forward to more great collaboration!

[@TheJunkyardgenius]

Cody watching Curtis over the last several years and his quest ov ruthless food growing effienciency gave me the knowledge to do several community gardens and allotments and ultimately change my career from a carpenter, to opening my own urban farm and our newest venture of growing veg in old shipping containers turned into greenhouses with some having grow lights in schools, so kids get healthier foods, the containers become a classroom to teach them about healthy eating, it employs a gardener so creates jobs and all this produces food at a cheaper cost than buying in the same equivalent food they used to. soak up everything Curtis has to offer. learning from specialists like curtis in certain fields will only make your homestead a better more productive place for you and your family. keep up the good videos. love your approach and attitude to the old ways.

[@lonehorntoad7319]

Excellent! Three of my favorite people to watch and listen to and learn from on You Tube.

[@Epic1700]

He has such a good channel thanks for having him on and helping build his subscribers.

[@HomeSweetAbundance]

Wonderful advice! I love how you all did a video together! It's always wonderful to see the people I love to watch all in one video in each other's worlds!

[@TXSuburbanHomestead]

I've been watching Curtis for a while. He's a bucket of great information. Even though he's in a much different environment than I am here in central Texas, I've gotten so much from him as far as the system.

[@robomanrobo6777]

You should look up what is going on in Leon valley right now with the police department on youtube

[@letzrockitrite8469]

great information and collaboration indeed.. thanks

[@oregonbear541]

I have been a follower of the Urban Farmer for quite a while and it was fantastic to see him speaking about the area that I live and plan to farm... many thanks

[@dbwesner9229]

I love seeing someone that has mastered his craft. I don't actually like gardening, but this guy is pretty impressive to watch.

[@flipsickle1122]

This was such a great change in variety and very refreshing! i find any information very interesting and Curtis is obviously an expert in his field.

[@David-kd5mf]

This is great. Bringing great minds together big things can happen. Big fan of Curtis Stone!

[@michael_house]

That was one of the best gardening videos I have seen in a while! Thank you!

[@redmondworkshops5181]

I saw Curtis at the Mother Earth News Fair last summer and was hooked. He really is smart and knows his farming/gardening. Glad to see you too hooked up.

[@LacasseEric]

My 2 favorite KZbinrs coming together for a video, this is awesome!

[@baron1c]

Wow. I discovered his channel last week and have been kind of binge watching it. Learned a lot. So awesome you guys did a collaboration.

[@nicholasmaddalena1451]

thank yall for being yall @Wranglestar great positivity and great content thank you too much hollywood disconnection in life... i like down to earth normal people like me and i like that you have the willingness to fail in order to learn becuase learning is so awesome man. im from orlando florida but im a land surveyor and an outdoorsman and i enjoy the way you live becuase i need mountains and forrests in my life...florida sucks for enjoying nature and it sucks for expanding the mind so thank you and your family for welcoming people in to see your life

[@yeshuaisthewaythetruthandt515]

Thanku. Very educational. Love Curtis. He is real

[@now1more]

These are my two favorite youtubers! Been following Cody since 2010-2011? Whenever he started doing timerframing videos. Started watching Curtis a little over a year ago. His book is excellent!

[@crspeed]

I can't wait to see more garden videos. I just landscaped my garden over the past 3 months and have been thinking it's only a matter of time before you show us some garden videos

[@laughingllama98]

Best gardening video I've seen in a while. Insightful, loved the analysis and advice. 🌻 Thank you.

[@Wood-Renovations]

This is one of my favorite wranglerstar videos! Been watching for 5 maybe 6 years now. It's love the tool videos and the shop videos and firefighting and logging and all of your videos!! But this format and the amount of information I got out of this video is great! I feel like you really hit home with me when you said gardening is overwhelming. And this cid o has got a fire lit in me to get out there and just start taking bites out of it. As always with your channel, thank you for the inspiration and the resources to help me and I'm sure so many other people!

[@wranglerstar]

Thank you Alex

[@TekedixXx]

IT'S CURTIS STONE! NEVER would I have thought you three would be in a video together. Amazing.

[@MrDynamitd]

WOW , 2 of my favorite youtubers on one vid , Curtis is a national treasure , got us onto micro greens , experimenting with different varieties with friends ,we make small trays and give away.

[@tanfo8]

Woot I'm an urban farmer fanboy. You couldn't have got a better person if you tried! He's like a farming guru. No nonsense systematic approach to great farming! Please do more collaborations with him. You won't regret it!

[@jamesprigioni]

Agreed, Curtis is a straight pro

[@bking0220]

This is the best video you have ever posted. Curtis is the most knowledgeable gardener ever!

[@johntreml1838]

Awesome, two of my favorite KZbinrs and a subject that is so pertinent to our situation!

[@coryallison8087]

Very cool! I have been watching Curtis for a couple years now. That would be great to see more collaborations between the 2 channels.

[@uthris]

Funny, Just started watching his channel and now he is here as well. Quite the treat

[@adrianalvarenga6877]

So, I've only watched 4 videos. The third video made me say, "Damn, this is one humblde dude." The humility in allowing someone to come into your home and give you tips on your garden is amazing. You have just earned a subscriber. Great channel.

[@wranglerstar]

Thank you Adrian. Hope you enjoy the videos. We figure we can all learn, right? Exciting to have so much wonderful information at our fingertips.

[@kylarichardson4]

Beautiful view! Love Curtis Stone 🤗

[@martinengelbrecht5384]

Curtis is a very energetic gardening guru with excellent practice financially sound advice.

[@pinemeadowshobbyfarmafruga8319]

For your bird netting try using rolls of plastic deer fencing. I use it and it cost a fraction of that of bird netting. I purchase it for under 20 dollars for a 9' by 100' roll.

[@bobvan2576]

OUT-STANDING!! Quick, interesting, efficient, and helpful. Thanks a bunch (to everyone involved) for doing this video. Best, Bob

[@frugalprepper]

I think Cucumbers are another great place to start on a crop you can learn and use. They are generally easy to grow and you can learn to water bath can and make your own pickles.

[@APJAKUB]

Invaluable information on gardening! Thanks for sharing!

[@mray4ua]

What an outstanding video! Packed full of information I can use. The interview skills of you both are top rate. I'm so glad I found this channel.

[@sycoalien212]

you guys are so lucky. Once Im back on land with space for a garden I hope to take one of his courses.

[@jasonferster5891]

Just discovered Curtis's channel and been watching a lot. So cool to see you guys collaborating.

[@TheRyanpb123]

I found Wranglerstar a few weeks ago and have been watching at least an hour a day. Love the videos man. Keep them coming.

[@wranglerstar]

Thank you Ryan

[@TheBrightPixel]

This was a really great video. Mrs W is a natural for this style of educational material. Thank you.

[@sparklyhomesteader5414]

Curtis is a full on ROCKSTAR. Best gardening/business content on KZbin.

[@gewgulkansuhckitt9086]

The higher sides on the raised bed do have one advantage, which is that you can turn them into a cold frame very easily. Regarding irrigation, my personal experience is that mulching around the plants makes an ENORMOUS difference in water retention in raised beds. The optimal width of a raised bed for me is as wide as possible while keeping it narrow enough that you can work on the center of the bed from either side easily. When I transfer tomatoes from a pot to a bed, I trim off all the lower leaves/branches and bury the tomato plant on its side with just the top sticking out of the ground. Roots sprout all along the buried "trunk" of the tomato and it makes the plant more vigorous. Also don't plant too deep as that will kill a tomato plant.

[@motor2of7]

Great content and very timely. Just moved to the mountains and planning a garden for next year. We have lots of trees to take down so I plan to mill them and build the raised beds. Looking forward to the fresh ingredients. I learn a lot from you Cody, thank you for including us in your experiences.

[@MohammedAslamtit-bitsoflife]

Hi wranglestar family after long time it's very pleasant. ..Thank you introducing Green Acres gentleman and sharing all your ideas, it's worth.

[@aljacobson9525]

Wow.....two of my favorite families. Great strategies, great fun to listen to your evaluations of a real garden. You should do this every year; but at a different time of the year. Great job.

[@jeramfelcordero4613]

Love this guy. Good work bringing him in.

[@PastoralHomesteadOutdoors]

This guy has done more for my small urban farm than anyone else on KZbin. Really great information, great guest!!

[@wranglerstar]

So glad to read this.

[@offgridcurtisstone]

Thank you!

[@alanrouse8301]

Curtis is right start small. I actually got into "square foot" gardening once, and really enjoyed it. I was amazed at how much stuff I could get from such a small space. Hope you enjoy your bounty this fall and winter. I am praying for you and the family that the fire does not touch you or your land.

[@HiddenMeadowFarm]

Two of my favorite KZbin creators in one place. Cool! Thanks y'all.

[@markgabbard7311]

yea curtis is great. his videos are helping me tons. its awesome you got to have him at your place. i got a garden id like to see him give a go at.

[@mstewart9231]

I am a follower of Curtis. He is fantastic. This was great information. Start out with limited crops, nail them, greenhouse or nursery, succession planting and systems for watering. I spend a lot of time watering and some plants, like tomatoes, letting wilt will reduce it'a production. Thank you for having him. Too bad you didn't get his tomatoes

[@thefreedomwarrior]

I cannot get over the mountain in the background. The west is incredibly beautiful.

[@Faigh_as]

William Wallace it sure is

[@bondking501]

Two of my favorite KZbinrs! Great video!

[@ermining1]

A solution for the greenhouse, could be to make a dome one. Built one in Iceland (greenhouse and northern light "igloo guesthouse"). Never had any issues with either snow or hurricane (survived winds of 210kph with no damage). And we get LOADS of snow in the north. I found it worked well because you can play with how you lay out your plants depending if they're creepers (they can go up the structure) or if they prefer more heat etc.... Also very cheap to make and as a carpenter I really enjoyed it as it brought a whole new set of technical challenges I had never come across.

[@yblignomis]

Free stuff, free consultants, I love the constant logical consistent progression, what a life

[@bigrip5403]

this is great content when popular youtubers come together and share their knowledge. good stuff

[@brigittelm6054]

Woah that is alot, your killin' it haha So great to see you all on a more personal level. Your family is truly blessed. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@craigandamandadutterer3171]

My grandparents ran a 180 acre farm in Carroll County MD, mostly a dairy operation. Staeted sometime in the 40s. In the early 90s Fred Gywnne, better known as Herman Munster, and his wife bought a neighboring farm. The man was very cordial and tall

[@andreasm249]

Hello Cody I have been subscriber to your channel for many years now and I will say that your videos getting better and better! Keep up your good and learning channel! Thanks!!

[@wranglerstar]

Thank you Andreas

[@now1more]

Yes! Cody, I really miss you timberframe videos. Do you think that you may d some more I the future?

[@mfeldheim]

Wow breathtaking scenery you got there. Absolutely stunning view

[@PC-uh6hk]

One thing about a homesteading community is that you can all specialize in ten or so different crops and share what you have and collaborate on the canning, freezing or whatever else you do. We don't have to do everything in order to have everything.

[@arthurmoore1379]

I like this Info about Gardening a lot. I started before Tree House.

[@brigittelm6054]

Great to see you guys colaborating with Curtis...his gardening skills for sales is insanely dialed in. Garden suggestion: Compost...get some plastic trash cans, since your property is so large, suggest rolling ones.Kitchen waste, coffee grounds, hair, leaves, weeds that haven't gone to seed, ripped up paper bags, mail ( non slick adverts) torn up, little bit of water, manures, even pine shaving/ saw dust from Mr. W's shop over time it will break down. Can used urine in cup, several times to get it started with good bacteria. I use a 2 plastic bags laid flat over the can then put on lid to help keep bugs out, to take up the difference under lid and can rim area. Use your compost to mix in with your soil when planting, also sugggest coconut core sp? to help retain moisture then mulch on top to help keep moisrure in beds.

[@wranglerstar]

Thank you Brigitte - I have 6 4x4s 2 feet high full of compost. I love composting. it was tough because Cody had to edit out a lot to keep the video a reasonable length. MrsW

[@vladimirstroganoff4404]

Wow the view of the mountain at 7:43 ... Amazing!

[@waamp6984]

Loved the discussion at the end of this...

[@jkimrey]

So awesome to see crossover between your channel and The Urban Farmer's channel!

[@BradBauter]

Such simple thinking to increase your yield. Thanks for sharing!

[@SaturdayProjects]

Curtis is an urban garden rockstar. Killing it with the content lately Wranglerstar.

[@robertsalisbury7004]

Absolutely love your channel.. thank you

Come on 1,000,000 subs for Wranglerstar! 👍 The gardening part was cool too! 😆 Great collaboration!

[@wranglerstar]

Great idea!

[@dlmad4561]

Our 22 year old raised beds are 4x8x3 feet tall. I built forms and poured concrete. They are wonderful. gravel in bottom and then soil. we compost our lawn grass and food scraps and do very well. we also plant in stages as he said on lettuce and raddish's it works good. we built hot boxes to fit over beds and they work very well also . 2x4 frame with what ever for clear cover. lids open on top. Have fun.

[@wranglerstar]

sounds great

[@vinylhanger604]

This video has sent me down the rabbit hole. Market gardens, microgreens, greenhouses, etc, etc. I'm not sure if I should thank you or unthank you. LOL. We are now looking at setting up a market garden and I have spent probably 30-40 hours on youtube the last week or so doing nothing but watching Urban Farmer videos and the trail it sent me down. Of course there's a good smattering of Wranglerstar vids in there as well.

[@richarddebrunner1149]

You and Mrs. W. are so cool.... Thank you.

[@dennisalanvids]

Love Curtis Stone. Great way to produce food in the city! Having room on my new homestead I will be planting more of a perennial type of "food forest". His tips are great ones to help improve a homestead garden. WRANGLERSTAR you should look into Permaculture practices. It came to be my favorite way to help produce food for myself. It's a way off looking at your entire homestead and how it can all work together for you. Food and water are our biggest survival needs!

[@woundeddove]

Wow the video shot of the snow covered mountain in the distance was amazing.

[@WinonaFarms]

Excellent video - my two favorite KZbin channels condensed into one!

[@LoneStarLiving]

I've seen several of his videos. He's a smart guy. Hope to see your garden take off now! :)
