In this video I will give you a full garden tour focusing on the vegetable garden in our mediterranean garden, our English cottage garden and our tropical garden.

Thank you for all of your video's I know it's a lot of work. So personally as long as we get to see it I'm good with all of it haha
I think a monthly half hour visual deep dive. Can't wait for the Japanese garden.
the turnip roots are fine the greens will be bitter after going to seed
Anytime you don't have a "special" project to share with us is a great time to see a full garden tour video. Gardens change weekly so love the updates. It's also good to see that Youtube gardeners have things that fail as well as the things that work well. I love seeing that your gardens aren't pristine and perfect all the time. It helps us to accept that we don't always have to have things perfect either.
Just a thought about your chicken run:

Everything looks amazing. Great job Brian. I love tour videos.
Great video! I think the "natural" look is more informative and encouraging. I appreciate the plant names and find adding them to the screen to be most helpful. As far as how often, I think it depends on how much things are changing. Everything looks wonderful and the season is just getting started! Can't wait to see the progress.
Hi Sir, could I ask if you ever have trouble with the woodchips taking the nitrogen out of your soil?
The garden tours help us to see the growth process. Real life. They always show us perfect finshed product. Lets see often. Lets me know I am in a process.
Thank you for Sharing your time making this video.
Don't worry about forgetting names of plants since you're good about editing them in which is helpful for spelling-challenged & hard-of-hearing folks like me. A monthly 20-25 minute tour would be lovely and again don't worry about things being picture perfect. QUESTION: an apple tree we planted 4 years ago has LOTS of blossoms. Should I pinch off the 3 smallest of a cluster of 6-7?
On the turnips, you'll notice a bitterness due to bolting.
Love watching your landscape become transformed!!!❤ Maybe have a garden tour every 2 months so we can watch your progress. Can't wait to see those gorgeous roses bloom. Your chicken's response was funny😂. They do like to talk to you.💞
Brian, you are such an inspiration. I appreciate all your hard work, knowledge and tips. I have a question about where you have planted your muscari and daffodils. I understand that the leaves are left intact to provide nutrients to the bulbs. Do you plant an annual or something in between or in back of the bulbs so something else grows there once the leaves die down?
I would like a tour every 4-6 weeks in the growing season to see how much and how fast your plants are changing. I’m 8b, so you are just ahead of me, which helps me prepare what I need to do. Thanks.
When you want. But suggesting 6 weeks. A month or so.
But. I'm eating sugar daddy peas. Had a potato harvest (not spectacular but encouraging). Roma tomatoes and black plum tomatoes have fruit! Blue lake 274 Bush beans and Kentucky wonder pole beans in bloom and producing. I'm near Galveston Texas.
GARLIC – RAIN & DISEASE?
Monthly updates would be great! Then I can follow along with what my garden is doing.
Yes, I planted garlic, beautiful premium cloves the end of October, aiming for big bulbs in June….but the rain. I think that's what it was. I noticed them turning brown and splotchy. I watched a video by a guy in San Diego named Jacques who said the rain did that to his garlic, said it was a fungus that could spread to other alliums and the beds were polluted, as in don't plant alliums there for a couple years.
I hope you see this comment and go look at Jaques' YouTube video and maybe report back on your channel if you think that's true.
Yes, bolted turnips turn woody. You can use them in stews you are planning to freeze, as they will stand up to being frozen, thawed, and reheated. They will be rather bland, but make a good filler.
You made tremendous progress on your ho e site. I have been watching you for about two years and enjoy your videos very much.
Those white, Mexican Bird of Paradise plants are invasive. Once planted, they will come up everywhere. Also, I’ve seen them grow into trees and they look very messy and ugly. However, orioles love them.
Love your videos. Nice to see all the projects in motion. I have an ‘herb’ garden that has been in transition for 10 years. This year, flowers. Last year, sesame plants. The year before pumpkins and squash. The idea of constant change/growth is good. And… I only eat turnip greens. I love my greens. Thank you for another great show.
I love watching garden tours and since you are in the process of adding and expanding them, I think Bi-weekly garden tours would be awesome! I also like the longer tours so don't worry about the length. Watching you plan out and design your garden spaces gives me so many ideas for designing my garden spaces.
Still watching, but I'm enjoying these garden walk through videos. As a new gardener (well, newish), learning the habits of plants and how they progress through the season is handy. I am also enjoying seeing the developments on your gardens, and what plays well with others, of that makes sense. Thanks for teaching 🙂
I would love to see a tour at least every 2-3 months.
Once a month is great❤
Thank you Brian, your garden has come along ways! I would love to see a once a month garden tour, no pressure though. 🌷💚🙃 P.S. I love long garden tours, you have time to really see what’s going on and growing. 🌷💚🙃
😮
No just use them
We always at fennel raw after dinner to help digest
Welcome to aging, it happens slowly.😢 is so frustrating
OMG I set out my container garden 3 days ago… it’s been nonstop thunderstorms/tornado warnings for us here in FL. My plants are still holding on, we will see🤣😂. I’m glad I didn’t put up the trellis for the tomatoes and zucchini or it would be in the river with all the wind. Wanting to plant more things but waiting for better weather🤪. Love the tour and would like to see more.🌴
Is it okay for the strawberry to sit on the ground. I keep trying to prop mine off the soil
Been around Red bud trees in March. Let the bees be. They're hungry for the hive. Might be 3 years before you experience that, Brian. Red buds are early.
would love a monthly tour. but I feel ike that is a tall order at the same time
Thanks. Love the tour. ❤
Once a month tours would be great please
You have a ton of work left. Boy, I couldn't do it anymore. Sure glad you're able to. Great video, no worries about the memory thing, we all do it. Love the catch-up video, it's great to see it all in perspective.
You are an amazing visionary and you make it happen. It is awesome to see the progress.
The chickens don't know what a beautiful home you have created for them. Love your channel. Also great job on the companion book! Great reference.
It’s going to be great! You’ve done so much in a short period. Most people will do weekly garden tours especially when things start taking off.
Your pyracantha looks like snow fell all over it!!
Loved the garden tour. Not too long. Glad to see updates of all the areas. Everything is really going to start taking off so I think once a month is too long to wait. Don't worry about the names. I prefer to see the name pop on the screen with what it will look like. Even though I know that's more work. Thanks for your efforts.
Garden Tour every hour please 59 mins long.
If I'm not mistaken, garlic does this splitting when they are 1. left too long in the ground, 2. have not been watered consistently, 3. Had too much water. My most successful garlic crop (also my only garlic crop; I planted my first garlic bed last year and it was great, this year my crop failed completely, mainly because of the rain. It all rotted in the ground.) was when I planted them along the top of a long mound. Made a hill all along one side of my bed, with plenty of sand and compost to maintain enough moisture, but also free-draining enough so that the bulbs were not sitting in water. They turned out the best and so in the future, I will always do it this way. I am really going to miss not having my own garlic this year, though. Most people don't notice the difference between their own and store bought, but I do.
Love long format videos! Anytime garden tour suits me, just talk and explain as I garden 😊
I kind of think the artichoke are planted too close to each other.
I love what you've done and I follow both your channels. I cant wait to see it years from now. I hope you will open up for tours 😊
