    One of the best videos I've watched on gardening! Loved both presenters and especially enjoyed learning about the details of garlic growing! I love soil3. It's the best soil I've ever used.

    Thanks for that reply! Next question: Chris, since there won't be a garlic festival this year, where is the best place in Asheville to get garlic, or should we order on-line? thanks.

    Hello, thanks for these 2 days of a TON of information. I attended your garden festival last year outside Atlanta and am sorry it couldn't happen again. I learned so much. Anyway, my question is "how many times can you plant in Soil-3?" I have mine in the large felt bags and had tomatoes there this year (they did great until the blight hit), but now I would like to plant something in them for next year (they are too big to just empty), so I am wondering how long the humus retains all its wonderful properties?

    I really like the way you did this presentation – live action showing the powerpoint, not in Zoom. Great combination which keeps the viewer engaged. Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm, knowledge and experience.
