My cavoodle absolutely loves you and tuck. No matter what he’s doing if he hears your voice he comes and sits next to me and fully concentrates on the tv screen. Then when he sees Tuck he does these super cute chuffs to say hello.
Thanks for all the awesome content!

This fall I’m growing carrots, beets, radishes, broccoli, arugula, bok choy and more!! This is my first year doing a fall garden 😊

[vesmcbc]

I just bought some 'parsley peas', You don't wait for the pods and they are ready to harvest in 30 days! Just planted more rat tail radishes too. Up in 3 days! I need things that make me feel like a competent gardner. lol

[justynwolf]

my husband and I love your videos. you are such a "happy" and excited gardener. Watching your enthusiasm and joy of gardening brings smiles to my heart and my face!
We have been gardening for 50 yrs or so and we are still learning new things. You are a great encourager and teacher. Give Tuck a carrot for us. ;)

[vilgdtd]

Love your garden.
I especially appreciated your talking about germination time.

[karenlindley.]

Rather watch Tucker eat veggies all day ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ . Yorkies are the best xx

[amynourse]

Just planted so many things you've suggested. You should get credit for the seeds/varieties you suggest. ♥♥♥♥♥for handsome Tuck!

[corleeashley]

Thanks James!
I'll be starting some spinach, radishes & swiss chard tonight or tomorrow!!!
Please give our (me, Chrysie & Nolie) love to Tuck!!! ❤😉 😄

5A for me, but I put carrots in last week, going to do radish and beets tomorrow from a bed I just cleaned out. Mammoth melting are my favorite pea, they produce forever.

[lindag]

Thanks. I would be foolish to not plant these in October and November here, although I could take a chance with the peas in late September. Phoenix area, Zone 9B. I plan to plant all of these items by November. Last winter, my carrots did amazingly.
Hello to Tuck!

[sunjet]

Hello, I am so, so happy to find your channel. Thanks to your advice I saved all of my yellow squash. They were eater by borer until I performed surgery on each one. Some people thought I lost my mind and could not believe what I did, but I don't care now I have abundance of squash I can share with others. Thank you so much, your new subscriber from NJ. ❤❤❤❤ to Tucker.

❤ Tuck is terrific. I didn't know some of those varieties could be grown this late in the season. That's great. Thanks!

If one grows (in raised beds or flatlander gardening) a raised row (barrow) method, then establish the W -E axis laid barrow, and plant the sun-loving (warm) crops with short height on the south side. The taller (and colder crops) with taller heights plant on the north side, as their height above the barrow won't harm them when they are small and growing past the barrow height. Their stronger, younger growth height further supports the higher plant stalk and vine at higher elevation. If you have an east-end vegetable (early morning sun, minimal afternoon and evening sun and heat) or west-end vegetable (late afternoon sun, and higher sun and heat) you can maximize those ends for growing opportunities as well.

If you barrow a raised garden with the N-S axis, then use the east-end and west-end concept as the east-side will be those early morning growing crops, while the west-side will be the late afternoon growing crops.

With the barrow method you have more growing surface with both sides and top of the barrow (and the barrow ends) to plant on, versus everybody at the same level. The barrow method is a garden food forest canopy concept in small size.

You are definitely a master at growing your own food . Great garden construction, beautiful crops, and healthy eating. Love that master Tuck ❤ GOAT dog 17:18

The kick in the pants I needed to get going with fall planting! Thanks for the great info, esp varieties that work well for you.

I guess if money wasn’t an issue …. I would have a small room next to my kitchen that is a breakfast nook but also a green room. In the winter I can turn on the green room, have fresh food, AND warm up the house.
Right next to the garage. So I can start plants inside and also have a “work shop”.

Love this content. ❤❤

Thank you for sharing your gardening knowledge, James. I have shared about The Gardening Channel with several friends. We have several 5 gallon food safe buckets planted with July crops. And now to plant a few more for August. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ for Tuck. 😊
