I find gardens so amazing. The fact that these beautiful, lush plants start out as tiny seeds just boggles the mind. Thanks for the tour. I watched the June one earlier, so I wanted to go back and compare with this one. I look forward to seeing the progression next month.

“Brassacre” 😂 We’re in Virginia Zone 7a too! Your garden looks awesome! Really helpful to see how you cover your eggplants. Before you explained I thought, “why do her eggplants look so good?” Lol the flea beetles destroy mine every year

[SuffolkSusie]

Hello 👋 from Long Island NY. I love your garden and the garden tour. New sub 👍

[applegirl]

I love your simple cover for your brassicas. What a great idea to use the arched metal rods, with bug net over it. You have taught me several things I didn't know, including eating cabbage leaves. Your garden is amazing!

Enjoyed your tour. I will be watching to see how everything turns out

I planted food in my green stalks the first year but I didn’t like it either. However, I have 3 and they make beautiful flower planters so that is what I use them for.

[emmalouie]

yes the pea and the chinese broccoli review is interesting and honest some plants are small or tough, I planted some snow peas and they were very very tough!

Hi Michelle. I dont have green stalk but i have a vertical planter that I got from amazon. I also couldnt grow anything in it. I tried strawberries and leafy greens, all stunted. This year decided Im going to plant all flowers in my vertical planter particularly nasturtiums. Very low maintenance and all edible. Similar to what Becky did at acrehomestead.

Beautiful tour, Michelle ❤. Everything thriving 👏. Thank you

My 7th birthday in last year now I'm will be 8❤❤

Your garden is really looking nice I pretty much have everything planted out in my garden as well I planted a lot of flowers this year as well as vegetables that I really like to eat

[caseykish]

I noticed a lot of other people with green stalks have been planting flowers in them. I have a different brand vertical growing tower that’s similar and I grow cilantro and lettuce in it on my covered back porch. I tried strawberries in it one year and they were stunted

[WithrowUrbanHomestead]

My Greenstalk hack is in the spring I unstack and plant out the pockets. I let everything grow for a month then stack them up. I get the best growth this way.

I mainly grow flowers.

It’s worth the time for me because I’m using them to grow in a narrow paved space along the side of our house.

You can grow flowers on that green stock😊

Beautiful garden, Michelle. I like all your trellising and structure in the garden. Thanks for sharing!!

[jonhunter]

strings to support tomatoes, very interesting, never tried that, thanks for this video, really enjoyed it

[mercygathitu]

Me too😕 I find green stalks dry out so fast and don't produce as much

[kate]

love your garden design, it is really beautiful

[TheMomGeneral]

I am on the struggle bus with my green stalks. I bought two. The first year I assembled one and nothing did well. So I figured there was a learning curve? This year I have both assembled. I transplanted kale into the original. Nothing grew. It just sat there stunted. The second on I planted with seed and it thriving! So I do t know: still confused. Maybe seeds just do better in them?

I haven't tried food crops in my greenstalk YET! I do flowers and certain herbs and chives .I thought about strawberries but those runners would get on my nerves.😅😅 Your garden is gorgeous
