Starting Our Veggie Garden in Sydney, Australia

[@calebevans8437]

Let's watch a video of Tim not enjoying gardening 🤣🤣 he nearly lost it when he thought it was gonna take 12months for the peas to be ready🤣🤣🤣

[@myraholmes8702]

Nicole is so knowledgeable about the garden. Just listen to her Tim

[@nataliegraham9552]

Lol'ed at Nicole's remark about Tim being a supermarket guy. 😄 I'm enjoying Nicole being involved in the cooking and gardening videos! I love that you're planning on a potting shed for the garden, and eventually a greenhouse. A gardener's dream setup!

[@marionryan582]

Nice work glad Nicole is there with you to guide you .👍👍🤩🤩.

[@andrewwright2405]

Coming along nicely there Tim and Nicole, totally agree with raising the bed heights in time, it'll take the strain off your backs in the long run

[@vickilynn1204]

I could watch spoiled Maggie all day. She is just so adorable. ❤

[@BrendaOsif-zk4fp]

Thanks Tim, will be checking back to see results. That’s going to be a nice garden❣️ Hard work, more so than a yard.😀 You and Nicole make a great team. 💚

[@adamgrima9142]

Tim get some black plastic to put over the veg plots that are empty the sun will kill the weeds in a couple of weeks before spring planting

[@karmareed3598]

It looks absolutely beautiful Nicole!!

[@DarkfireLightice]

Spot the 4th egg!

[@turfandtools]

Well done 👍

[@Michele_Williams]

Lol, yes, I was pointing down..there’s another!

[@jodidavis6595]

Maggels sure loves her daddy 🥹❤️ my husband brought home from wrk industrial weed killer..it took almost a week to show brown 😡🥵🤦🏼‍♀️ love all you channels thanks Tim 🇺🇸

[@Michele_Williams]

If it’s safe now, let the chooks into the dirt beds and add compostable, chicken safe food/scraps. They will turn it as they scratch, add valuable manure, and have that turned to nutrient rich soil by Spring. I got annoyed with twine so went to bamboo canes. Slide a five foot cane to the bottom of the bed in whatever pattern you plant/seed them. Take them out at the end of harvest and store to reuse. Your chickens will love those peas! For the fire pit, brick is nice, but perhaps use larger rocks instead so that it flows with the rocks in the background? This was a great video, and it was nice to see the chickens, doggos, and the garden. It was nice to at least hear Nicole ☺ she’ll get you certified in Veggie Gardening👍

[@turfandtools]

Good advice 👍

[@karmareed3598]

Magie is fantastic supervisor!!

[@nancybasileauthor]

What a beautiful property. Can’t wait to see how it goes.

[@teenastaller8903]

Once the weeds are out on the footpath we use Preen to keep them from coming back. Preen is a sterile corn product in US. Not sure if you can get it in Australia. We started with soil that was terrible, rocky and no bugs or worms. We added layers of compost from a company here to better the soil. Now we have a beautiful orchard and garden including several raised beds. My husband uses leftover wire fencing for the peas and green beans.

[@suedoe4543]

Very nice garden area. It looks much bigger with the beds and paths cleared. It will be fun to see the progress as time goes on. Thanks for sharing.😊❤

[@valeriepasbrig2864]

How lucky you are to have a ready-built garden area. The spray you used seems like it works very well. The tougher the plant, the longer it will take for it to work. And, it's already working. That's going to be an awesome garden when it gets going.

[@DarthVader1033]

Tim if I make some suggestions, I have myself have 7 raised beds all of them are 12ft x4ft x 2ft and I use a electric tiller/cultivator to clean them up at the beginning and end of the planting season and I also at the end of the season I cover the entire bed with a black tarp as this will keep any weeds from growing over the fall and winter months here where I live. Now granted you or your wife will still need to do your normal and maintain weeding during the planting and growing months,

[@carriegarrisonvos4433]

You can always lay cardboard over it and the grass will die out without sunshine. We do ours in the spring with cardboard at times to kill it back plus it's natural 😊

[@mikea7887]

That's a big veggie patch for a small family. If all goes well, you will have so much "produce" Nicole may have to get a stall at the local farmers market.😀

[@lukiluvssuga]

Tim you should plant a sultana tree. It will make up for the lost time taking peas from the pods. 🤣🤣

[@joycefuller9177]

I enjoyed this video and hearing from Nicole. I use dill seed in a chip dip and have grown it before.

[@davismorrisson9429]

Good video Timmo, I've found most sprays I've used over the years ( I'm now #61) take about 3 to 4 days to penetrate the root system, so give it a bit of time to work,p.s. looks really 👍🙂 👍noice 😂😂

[@janababuljakova2534]

Ahoj Time! Věřím že tvá paní bude velmi spokojená s tvojí prací a jak to tak vidím tak i pejskům se tam bude líbit! 😊👍👍🌿Jana 🏆👋

[@baggyboo560]

Hey Tim, look at you becoming a gardener 😂. You'll love it eventually, especially when you get to eat the fruits of your labour. 🥕🥬🍓🍆🥔

[@zygmuntthecacaokakistocrat6589]

You need a wire roof on it to stop those pesky vegetarian kestrels swooping down and making off with your zucchinis.

[@beknic8872]

Yep and the possums will ravage those snow peas 🫣

[@PaulStephens-ie8vl]

great video tim i have used slasher in the past personally i think it’s hit and miss and over priced you don’t get to much coverage with it but it is organic which is great it would be great to see some competition in the market keep up the good work

[@Richard-qe5uq]

You asked for advice, so here's some: Don't kill the Dill 😂 Nicole will be mad 😉 Love your Vlog

[@chrisdziggler7439]

also i saw in the review video of the LMX5300SP YOU WERE NOT SURE IF YOU COULD STORE IT IN YR SHED UPRIGHT YOU CAN FOLD THE HANDLE DOWN TOWARDS THE HANDLES AT THE FRONT OF THE MOWER AND THEN PICK IT UP BY THE HANDLES YOU LL SEE WERE THE CATCHER GOES THERE IS TWO FEET IT STANDS ON IF THIS HELPS

[@kevinscott404]

Spraying windows have about 20 degrees between cooler and warmer temps to get best use.

[@charlesgalea69]

Thanks for the video

[@markcoleman7289]

Get the Ego cultivator it’s great for a garden like yours.

[@freddyk021]

I've tried Slasher too many times. Plants turn brown in a few hours and "look" dead, but within a week or 2 they're green again. I've been told it only really works well on seedlings.

[@Remgrantd]

Might as well pee on the weeds

[@richardportelli1983]

Lols Tim needs to learn about gardening. He will get there eventually with a good teacher.

[@sniper8669]

[@WeeWeee_]

my gardens all look like that..... wanna come do mine next? lol. I hate gardening

[@garywagner2466]

“Fo-lee-age,” not “foilage,” mate. Aussies are weird. Best to keep your pup well away from that chemical. If you put a nozzle on your hose you won’t need a tap slave to turn the pump on and off. Brass connectors and metal nozzles will last longer than plastic. Where did you think peas came from? Try some bush beans, too. Your gardening education is going to be entertaining. I’m guessing those tall frames were put in for a reason. The local birds are waiting patiently for your crops to be ready so they can get there first. They get up earlier than you do. Look for a deal on plenty of netting that does not degrade in the sun. Wire mesh as a roof would work, too, but you still need access to the raised beds. Thanks for posting.

[@ajmilagros]

That organic weed killer seems less effective than even the vinegar, salt, soap method, which also burns and dehydrates the leaves of the weeds. It is pretty good, but not as good as any chemical killer - and also non-toxic and should meet the organic criteria I would think.

[@GoldenFireDragons]

Is that a hairy caterpillar on your upper lip?

[@chrisdziggler7439]

how r you boss can you do a review on the LMX5300SP CUTTING HEIGHTS AND WHAT THEY EQUATE TO IN MM EG IS 1 20MM OR IS 8 20MM OR VISER VERSA

I just started using it yesterday actually. I’ll have some stuff on it soon

[@chrisdziggler7439]

[@beknic8872]

I’ve had good success with Bioweed. Natural, organic and safe for animals once dry, can be strong in smell though as it uses pine oil.

[@4wdingisthebomb76]

Weed killer seems like it works alright, may have to get some myself

[@Dartanian1959]

I do not see the point of electric/battery sprayers hand pump sprayers are so cheap they hold 5 ltrs and are easy to pump lasting years

[@turfandtools]

Battery sprayers are awesome. Constant and consistent pressure, no pumping. Especially if you are doing quite a bit of spraying.

[@Dartanian1959]

@turfandtools the battery spray is only useful if doing acres of spraying.. For every day home & even heavy duty spraying spending $500 on a battery sprayer makes no economical sense

Really can't believe that someone who works with plants and gardens constantly, can't pronounce the word foliage.

[@rickthelian2215]

It’s not good to spray weed killer in the garden , residue can stay in the soil for some time, can affect your crop in the garden.🥲

[@Thermalions]

Supposedly this particular stuff biodegrades 100% within a few days, according to their website.

[@johnchapman9700]

Yeah nah, I've used slasher alot and I don't think it breaks down like they claim. I've sprayed it in the same spot a few weeks apart and nothing grew there for months. I had to plug that section of the lawn. I add a bit to round up, makes for a faster kill. Just because something says it's organic doesn't mean it's good for. Funnel web spider venom is organic 😁. Personally I wouldn't spray this or round up near anything I was going to eat. Just use mulch and hand weed.
