I LOVE how you always get right to the point - and you don't waste words or waste our time. You are one of the best youtubers because of that!

Watching this video for the first time as I’m going to attempt n
Blueberries but I have seen you eat from these bushes many times in Your newer videos and it’s a pleasure to see ❤ for Tucks memory

My grandfarher planted all of his tomatoes sideways/laying down. He never staked them up either. Just put a ton of leaf mulch around the plants and left them laying on the mulch. They got huge, and produced a lot of fruit.

Can we get an update on this Frankenberry bush? Interested to know how they did growing so close. Thanks man!

I like the way you layered the peatmoss and your sandy subsoil. In 2023 video, your blueberry bushes grew really healthy and well. Thanks for sharing your expertise.

tip - we purchased a small cement mixer from Harbor Freight Tools to mix our potting soil mix.
we put our ingredients in the mixer for a thorough mix and add water as needed while mixing. takes a lot of the work out of mixing soils for planting. I let the peat moss and coir soak over night before mixing. some of the things we use are composted soil, peat moss, coir, vermiculite, perlite, worm castings, rabbit pellets and cow manure we mix the ingredients depending on what we are planting.

Great video.

An idea for that heavy log... dig a trench and bury it next to or in you food forest. It will slowly release nutrients as well as regulate found moisture near by. The log will absorb excess water during rainy weather and release back into the soil during times of dryness.

We have had success planting in dry soils or remote, hard to water areas by boring a few holes and burying logs for wicking purposes.

Remember, no plant is an island.

This is awesome, please do a Complete growing guide on Raspberries. I can't find a good one anywhere.

I REALLY wish u would do Food Forest Tours. I live in NJ and id LOVE to come see your forest live and listen to you talk about it!!! Of course you should charge an admission fee and maybe sell any overflow thar you have. Im not sayin to do it all summer but maybe once each in spring, summer and fall. You are am EXCELLENT educator!!! Have u ever been a teacher, you look VERY young!!

Were you reading my mind? Recently I've been thinking about growing blueberries. Your video is perfect - thank you!

[dunestaniszewski]

I get serious ‘Garden of Eden’ vibes from your food forest... I’m starting mine this year. I feel like I could live in your forest!

My bro-in-law planted 2-3 blueberry plants on the side of his mini-greenhouse about 5-6 years ago. They are about 8-10 ft tall now. I picked some blueberries before they moved. I got about 1/4 bushel and it hardly looked like I touched it. Everywhere I turned or bent to pick berries, they were so loaded some of the branches were bent over a little. They are well-supported and enclosed with chicken wire. I can hardly wait to plant my own. Thank-you for suggesting to plant 2 different varieties next to each other for cross pollination. I just love your videos. It’s a rainy, nasty Saturday so I’m just going to binge-watch “The Gardening Channel with James Prigioni”.

I'm so jealous of your sandy soil! Makes digging look so easy. I live in the highlands of Jersey and my soil is hard, clayey and FULL of rocks

[stevedoyle]

I am expecting 5 Blueberry plants to arrive at my home any day now! I ordered from a reputable farm in NJ too! I just watched this to get a better understanding on how to prepare my soil and see how you did it! Big fan of your videos and I look forward to any you put out. Thank you, you are truley an inspiration.

I just planted blueberries. My nursery said took keep mulch away from the trunk. Would be interested in seeing a show on pruning blueberries to encourage berry growth if there is such a thing.

[RoadsandRipples]

Love the Paula Fuga song sprinkled in. Just bought 5 plants today from Hammonton, thank for the video!

Hello from Toronto! Just discovered you and Tuck in the last few months and can't wait for you guys to return to YouTube. In the meantime I continue to binge watch. 👍🏻

[richardbarksdale]

I have one blueberry plant I bought last year but you said to have two or three different types so I will be getting more different types this year. Thanks for the tips.
