thanks as always john!
Tatsoi were those greens that grew the fastest. Its a low growing version of bok choi.
While you can use salted macadamia nuts, I recommend using raw, unsalted macadamia nuts. They can often be found in a standard grocery store in the baking section with the other nuts. They are best found at health food stores.
love the channel but damn you edit allot in random spots…love to see a fuck up video with the stuff you cut out
mmm getting hungry here, John! Looking forward to growing more greens this year!
wow you bought a lot of those growums
What's the best and conservative way to wash off the dirt on vegetables. I find it takes up a lot of water, esp. spinach and kale.
Krikey!!! I just planted some today! What are the odds of that!?
Damn……I'm jealous, I wish you were my brother. I'd be over your house everyday for breakfast, lunch, and dinner
yer gonna eat that whole thing by yourself? wow!
STOP! You are making my mouth water!!! Come on spring get yer butt here so I can start growing!
You said "grow ems" box…they look like earth box's? Are they the same type of thing? IF so, where can you buy and are they less expensive?
YUM, I want some, 🙂
This Spring I'm growing zucchini, tomatoes, peppers, garlic, cucumbers, spinach and lettuce. Once they're all grown, I'm going to make zucchini lasagna with with freshly picked zucchini and some fresh garden salad 🙂
I wanna try that salad dressing recipe…looks good
You got too much time to think about every fucking bit of food that goes in your mouth. Get a life.
I read somewhere that scientists have found that primates usually go for the tender baby greens first over mature leaves because they're easier to digest and taste better. Seeing as we're a lot like them I think it only makes sense we do the same eh?
Yet you have time to be a complete douche on the internet maybe you should practice what you preach.
John, what foods do you buy from the grocery store, and do you wash your greens prior to cooking/preparing them? Oh yes, have you ever eaten a big mac?
that dressing looks epic, going to have to try that 🙂 thanks John!
Adam Hanson you are a worthless POS! john has helped thousands of people with completely free info here on YouTube. what have you done with your life besides be a rodents spinchter?
Thank you so much for all the videos John!!! They are super helpful. Awesome.
7:12 jajajaja
can you crush rocks to make this rock dust?? can you find minerals in everyday stuff or are they specialized and hard to find??
Where do you get these grow boxes?
Do these growing boxes have holes on the bottom? Where can I get these in the northeast? Sorry I am not familiar to your videos but very interesting and informative.
Gosh I 'd love to have that nursery!! 😀 can't wait.
Fat or calorie amount is not a problem at all. I do agree on wholefoods though 🙂
Nothing wrong with olive oil at all. Healthy fat.
You should have added some lean meat to it.
That does look good!
That dressing looks amazing!! Will try!
Baby leaves are definitely superior to large leaves, I even like them better than micros. I love to grow baby greens indoors.
Do u have Bed & Breakfast at ur farm?
