Isn’t Mother Nature amazing they sustain our very existence they provide the air that we breathe they provide flowers for us to enjoy and they also provide the food that we eat and it’s the vegetable plants that I want to talk about in today’s episode now we all grow
Vegetables for food that can sustain us and our families but if we put a little bit more effort and education into knowing more about these plants then we can sometimes double treble or even tenfold our harvests I’m ton O’Neal and this is simplify gardening what do I mean by understanding plants well
Imagine your body has this super highway that uh travels around the body and brings all the oxygen and all the nutrients and foods that it needs to all the relevant parts of the body the system uses veins like tiny roads and your blood acts like a truck that’s
Carrying all that oxygen and nutrients to every part of the body that needs them now plants have a similar system and although they don’t have veins they do have a system that carries all of the nutrients and the water around the plant that it needs and these have two systems
And they’re called the xyum and the flum now the xem it actually acts like like a water slide it brings all of the water up from the root system right through the plant and into all the leaves and other parts and that’s important because it not only brings that water it brings
Nutrients as well and when it comes through to the leaves the plant can utilize this to stay healthy and for photosynthesis which allows the plant then to absorb the actual food that it’s generating from the sunlight and then there’s the flm that is like a conveyor belt that moves all that sugary food
Through from the leaves from the photosynthesis and that’s then converted for other parts of the plant so our vegetables when they fruit and flour that’s what those sugars are used for so although plants don’t have a heart and blood like we do they have two excellent
Systems that keep them fed and well and it works really good for them now don’t get me wrong I’m not saying we need to become botanists or anything like that but understanding how a group or family of vegetables grows and the way they work can really make the difference to

A Mighty Oak I was just 7 years old when you introduced me to the world of gardening a world that seemed daunting and thorny much like the Goosey bushes I would brave for those sweet R berries I didn’t realize it then but you taught me
Much more than how to tend a garden you were teaching me about life about perseverance and about love I remember the damp musty smell of the old shed covered in tin sheating to protect it from the weather firm but instructive guiding me through each task weed here
Dig there you would say and I would obey not knowing that with each instruction you were sewing a different kind of seed in me a seed that would grow into a lifelong passion of gardening and a desire to pass on that love to my own children you have left us when I was
Still in my early teens but your legacy lives on in the garden in this book and in the lessons I now share with my own children and with people all over the world through my online content together we reap what you swed and not just my family but everyone who has benefited
From my content has you to thank for it I miss those simpler times when you were there to guide me but I’m grateful for the wisdom you imparted and the love of gardening you instilled in me I miss you gramp thank you for being such an inspiration to me throughout your life
Your Love of gardening has blossomed in me and I am forever grateful with all my love Tony

Good on yer. Putting the GREEN thing in perspective I grew up in the socialist Republic of South Yorkshire and the public transport, buses and trains, were subsidised and people used them. My Dad went to work on his bike we didn’t own a car, milk was delivered by electric QUIET milk floats by a man we knew and liked. WE used to go the local market and buy our veg from Market gardeners, half way between an allocment and a small holding. We bought meat from the same butcher during the CJD crisis!!!! And fish from the same fishmonger a friend of my cousin. And things have progressed?????? What you do and preach is common sense PLEASE keep up the good work, buying a copy now.😂😂😂😂😂
👍
Love the dedication. Very real
Aww Tony I loved the dedication to your gramps 💜can’t wait to receive my copy . You have such an great way of explaining things to us viewers .Wishing you all the best
Listening to your dedication to your grandfather made me tear up this morning. I’m sure he is smiling down, so proud. Then I came home and my copy has arrived! It is gorgeous! I can’t wait to dive in. Congratulations! From British Columbia, 🇨🇦
Love the book. Mine arrived a few days ago 😍
Looks like it will be available in Australia from Dymocks book stores next week.
I'd better keep an eye out for it. I hope it sells really well for you Tony.
Bought the book. Seems very well made.
Bought it❤
I can’t find the link
Looking forward to having a peek 👀 inside Ideal time to launch particularly for anyone who is about to start out into growing their own Hope it goes well mate 👏😊
I think you have to review what a phloem and xylem is. I think phloem transfer nutrients from the roots up and xylem from the leaf down. I hope I was wrong.
Thank you Tony, my dad gave me inspiration and I sold my first lettuce at the age of 8.
♻️Happy gardening, Terry King.
Beautiful tribute to your Grandad, he would be so very proud of you. I shall order the book now. xx
