  1. I’m curious about the worm bin in the raised bed. How would you go about harvesting the worm castings? Or do you just leave it in place for the raised bed to utilize the worm juice.

  2. Can attest I built Jacques Makerpipe trellis last year and it worked wonders. Designing a different configuration for this years crop but I will be using the same conduit and Makerpipe connectors.

  3. It’s 1am and literally just took advantage of that seed discount. My bank declined my first attempt and then sent me a fraud alert. It’s like they don’t know me at all!! ???? I’ve set them straight and am eagerly awaiting my seeds. ❤️

  4. Wish i had had more warning about the birdie sale, so i could've made sure i had enough money for them. Thats a big chunk of money to spend all at once. I would absolutely love having another row of them, but its too short of notice for me… ugh, i wish i could though man, i love those beds, i have 4 tall ones rn. Another row would've been so nice!

  5. Birdies are now in the US? Go Aussie. Best beds ever and I've had one for 25 years..good as gold!

  6. I need the maker pipe trellis! I’d use it for both a string trellis and shade cloth support! It will look so much better than the janky thing I set up.

  7. Can someone explain the benefits of planting in raised beds compared to just planting in the ground? I just don’t get how all that money is worth it? It just seems like a constraint, like once you run out of room that’s it and it takes so itch money to fill them (yes I know you can put sticks and stuff to help save soil) but could you just till the ground soil and mix in some store bought soil to help aerate and give nutrients?

    Most of our property is dry ass heavily cracked red clay and it is so dense with trees and plants but I’ve been getting into gardening and I have to do it with spending almost no money and I feel so hopeless because all these gardeners have raised beds so I feel like mines just going to fail.

  8. Also where are you getting bamboo sticks of that size for "a couple of dollars"?

  9. Arrr, me hearty gardening crew, Ahoy Kev, Ahoy Jacques, and the rest of yer fine team! I be an admirer of yer captivating content, ye see. Now, I be havin' a request for ye. Would ye be so kind as to craft a video on the treacherous topic of compartmentalization of decay in trees? Aye, it be a matter of great concern, for I've come to learn that misguided pruning practices can be a sly accomplice to decay in our mighty arboreal companions. 'Tis because ye see, trees don't mend like we landlubbers do, they be sealin' their wounds! The knowledge on this matter be scattered like gold doubloons on the vast internet, and it needs yer skilled hands to gather it all in one tidy trove. I be forever grateful for yer efforts, me kindest of fams. Fair winds and smooth sailin' to ye all!

  10. Best Gardening channel by far! You're all astonishing and helpful. Thank you so much for all your demos and lectures.

  11. Thank you or not calling your trellis a tipi or a wigwam (for whatever reason our UK gardener friends like calling their trellis' the names of ancestral Indigenous homes). Edit: you later called it a "tipi-style" trellis. Darn. Cone or conical trellis would be better.

  12. Thank you for the 40 % of Botanical interest. I just ordered a bunch of seed for the Years to come ????

  13. I placed my seed order the other day and I can’t wait, I always buy your seeds from my local nursery but the sale price was way too good to pass up!

  14. I used my gf’s old 3x pvc laundry basket divider thing as a frame for my raised beds ????
