    I love your videos 🙂 I'm going to add your channel to my educational lineup each month so I can keep learning! I've been gardening a long time, but there's always more to learn and time goes by so quickly that last season's mistakes often get repeated another year or two because I didn't take the time to "learn a little more". Thanks for sharing your knowledge! Now I'm gonna check out your store 🙂

    Sounds like me I like to grow new things for the love of the growth . Getting my hand into purple Cherokee tomatoes this year had some on a BLT in Dallas Texas and it was the best tomato ever !!! Thanks for your tip on growing tomatoes.

    Could you use dirty chicken coop litter as a mulch/fertilizer? I put a layer of it down at the end of the gardening season up in CT(I'm in zone 7a if that helps at all) in hopes that it would add some nutrients and provide some protection.

    Live in Florida and if I have free seeds or what have you I just grow it when ever. I have potatoes growing all year just from excess that I have that starts to grow in the pantry.

    In my garden, wasp orchis grow naturally.
    So my soil will certainly not be polluted, otherwise it wouldn't grow.
