    I love gardening and struggle with keeping my garden alive during the hot summer and this is exactly what I needed. I hope there was more information about how to garden in hot climates such as your channel. Thank you for the helpful tips that I will sure implement in my own garden. I love your garden and hope this summer is a better one in my garden.

    I lived in Ky for over 40 years and had a pretty big garden most of my life….a few years ago, i moved to surprise Az….my first attempt at a garden was awful….two years later, i finally have a garden growing pretty well this year….my timing is still a little off (we never put stuff in the ground before mother's day weekend in ky)….but i have noticed that i'm struggling a little with the bugs out here in arizona…suggestions?

    Hi, do you have any tips and advice on peppers? It seems like there's such a small window for them to produce between them not liking cool nights (below 50), to dropping blossoms after 90* it sends impossible odds to grow them in arrid climates, but I'm sure others know tricks that I don't…

    Urgent!!!!!!

    I just observed that your metal grid is touching the bulb. Consider the situation where the bulb is broken and electricity passes from bulb to grid. In that situation, it will be a hazardous condition for anyone who touches the grid unknowingly.

    Please take care fo that…

    Thank you! This answers SO many questions for me. I'm a new gardener in zone 9b in Santa clarita CA and I tried to start some "summer" plants such as watermelon, butternut squash and tomatoes as early as February because I knew from last year that the middle of the summer really is our dormant season. I even had a tomato ripening tomatoes at Christmas time. I have SO much to learn

    ❤️ I don't know if UAE heat is similar to Arizona, we had a 42 degree day in Dubai and more such days to come. This video was helpful.
    Are you still growing tomatoes? I have read that they don't ripen in extreme heat..
