This stopped my garden (Garden Reconstruction Part 1)

[@TheTexasBoys]

We redesign our garden this year and we are still figuring it out

[@TheTexasBoys]

Great seeing Luke in the mix!

[@sheilajohnson6478]

What a beautiful barn. I like the idea of the lean too. Perfect.

[@daddykirbs]

Thanks so much!

[@ABamaGardener]

I'm so glad to see you back and seeing Luke doing well. We all need a break at times. Looking forward to the stories you tell.

Welcome Back DaddyKirby's family.

[@daddykirbs]

Oh thank you! I'm glad you are here with me.

[@MimisHugsAndStitches]

Welcome back. Happy to see you again.

[@daddykirbs]

Thank you Kim! It's so good to be sharing again.

[@claudearmstrong9232]

10 years! I remember catching you somewhere back then. So much happened since! I learned medium scale hot composting with no turning in the early 90s and maybe that's what drew me to you then new farm steading venture. I enjoyed you then, and now. Looking at you making Sauer Kraut caught my eye as I was looking for recipes for Amaranth and other original grains. My experience with kraut was dismal, so I enjoyed your instruction. Currently the weight loss and pain from interstial cystitis keeps me on bed, but I use a smart phone to enjoy online interaction. I had a nice woodshop given to me, but it is idle. Maybe one day it will again be the joy of retirement. It's wonderful to see your family growing up and now Daddy's work crew. Good to connect again....

Welcome back! Happy to see you. I am your Oklahoma neighbor, and will be following. Thank you for your creative content.

[@joansmith3492]

Nice to see you back in the garden. Very nice to see Luke looking healthy. Beautiful barn.

[@daddykirbs]

Oh my... that barn is so cool! I'm not bragging, just so proud of that structure and what it adds to our farm. Thank you for hanging out with me.

I'm very excited as well. Hopefully I can start with a new perspective on KZbin. It can be a stressful game. I'm really hoping to just share and not care LOL

[@laylaenscoe521]

@@daddykirbs I started a channel (ATypical life) a little while ago but it's been really hard for me to put myself out there. I really appreciate that you do!

[@daddykirbs]

Bless you Layla. You know we deal with some atypical life as well here. I've spent a long time getting used to the camera and the feedback that comes with putting yourself out there. Just know that someone out there needs to hear what you have to say. Your story counts. Thanks for sharing it.

Hello Amy! Yes, it's been too long. Thanks for waiting for me.

[@PocketRaphael]

Can’t wait for you to be back to gardening

[@daddykirbs]

That new garden, if it all works out according to plan, is going to be awesome! Haha, either way I'm glad to be doing it and sharing it.

[@DiggingForHealth]

I'm so excited to see you back on KZbin! We took a really long break from caring for our garden as well, almost 2 years actually. I like to think of it as a blank slate to build something new! Good luck, I look forward to seeing your updates! 💕

[@daddykirbs]

Taking a break is sometimes just what is needed for new growth :)

Much love to your family as well. Thanks for waiting for me :)

[@RogersFixItBarn]

Good to see you back. I have switched to a raised bed garden to make it easier to maintain.

[@daddykirbs]

I've tried so many different styles of gardening and so far I really like my Greenstalk Gardens and a well built raised bed. I'm glad you are keeping up with your gardens.

[@furonwarrior]

Glad you’re back! Good luck on the farm!

[@daddykirbs]

Thank you. I'm looking forward to sharing more!

[@omaimaali5969]

Great video as usual. Makes me feel I am not alone :)

[@daddykirbs]

Glad to hear it!

[@BigggRoss]

Have you thought about digging down 8-10 inches and then refilling that with the compost? Make like a sunken bed rather than a raised bed.

[@daddykirbs]

Yes, I've thought about that too. It could still happen somewhere in the garden, but I'm really trying to find ways to divorce myself from the weeds that come up from the native soil. We'll see... you know how it is, always an experiment!

[@lshaffer1980]

Welcome back missed you guys

[@daddykirbs]

Thank you, I've missed being here sharing too.

[@brianmorgan8950]

As everyone else has said it's good to have you back. Good to see Luke as well. Hope you do a video on you bees. Looking forward to seeing how the garden grows.

[@daddykirbs]

I hope I still have bees after the freezing temps we've had :) I'm hoping to get back into the routine of sharing.

[@brianmorgan8950]

Here in the UK we have had a very mild winter so far. But this has resulted in the bees going out to forage but with nothing to collect so they have been eating their stores. I have lost 2 of my 4 colonies and others have lost colonies and that's before the full inspections have started. I have my fingers crossed for you.

[@joshuarichards8065]

Glad you're back, it seems like many creators have taken a well deserved break from KZbin recently. I'm redoing my garden before spring too. Redesigning 3 planting bed boxes, making a strawberry bed, building a potting table/bench, and starting seeds. Hope this will be a great year for us gardeners 😁

[@daddykirbs]

May your gardens grow full and lush, and may your harvests be plentiful :) Thank you.

[@crosscountryhomestead4288]

Thanks Dolly! Yes, I'll have to work in some Luke updates.

[@QuixLand]

Good to see you all again.! I too, am making a raised bed garden. Two in fact. Just me and my brother, so we don't need much.. We'll see how it all goes. (ps.. your asparagus beds were looking thick and tall.!!) LOL.. jo

[@daddykirbs]

Haha, yeah those Asparagus plants are nuts. That, and the Rose bush, are the only two areas of the garden I didn't level. I'll be building beds around those. I'm glad to hear that you are gardening as well.

[@HoneyHollowHomestead]

So glad to see you posting again! I was afraid that something had happened to Luke. By the way, Luke looks really good in the video!

Luke's health and care are always top priority here over anything in the garden or on the farm. It's nice to have him helping and smiling!

[@trishlovesdogs3188]

Luke looks great - so strong :D! Did you get the pool repaired?

[@daddykirbs]

No, the pool still sits broken and empty. Luke reminds me often that it needs done. It really is a priority since that is one of this main activities in the summer.

[@ericjohnson1008]

This is exciting Daddykirbs. How are your citrus grafting skills? About an hour away and I need to graft.

[@daddykirbs]

I've had mixed results with grafting. Hit up @TheTexasBoysOurFamilyStory to check out his grafting content. They have had a lot more success with grafting and air layering than I ever have. This is something I really wanted to be good at, but it seems that time got the best of me and I never practiced enough to become that expert.

[@ericjohnson1008]

@@daddykirbs thanks for the advice. Last year's freeze killed a lot of citrus back to the root stock and I want to try to graft other citrus back into the root stalk.

[@daddykirbs]

I have a few trees here that are doing the same. I'll have to give it another go. I do hope you have loads of success with your grafting!

[@ericjohnson1008]

@@daddykirbs My biggest question is to know when to try citrus grafting in the San Antonio area, guess I'll need to try and do more research. Thanks, again.

[@01aharley]

Have you check out Charles Dowding on KZbin? Seems like a good application for you especially in the dry spells, compost really helps keep the moisture in….shoot me a text I lost all my numbers. And I’m thrilled to see the KIRBOTA back in action!!
