    Dude, you're like a cool older bro who teaches me about houseplants and gardening 🌱💚

    I started gardening this year. I bought a mint plant and catnip, along with two little blueberry bushes. Seeing the plants blow up has really relaxed me. I thought 100% they would all die. I know all of these are really easy , but it is still a huge confidence booster
  • @davidlaker1013
    Good presentation--no editorial, straight to the point, no repetition, well-spoken. A breath of fresh air in this overcrowded subject.
  • @DavidWong1228
    I liked that you showed how you prepared the greens into a meal. Most gardening videos don’t do this and I actually really enjoyed seeing what you did with your clippings. Cheers!

    3:54 Never thought I'd ever hear anyone say "really nice really fresh pea flavor"

    It has been ~10 years since I last tried growing something in our medium size flower pots at home. I was a teen and I loved it. I remember growing Mango, Green Chillies, Tomatoes, Sunflowers, Holy Basil. They are easy to grow in pots.

    This is real post-covid content. I hope we are done with everyone trying to be a millionaire and be more human instead.

    I’ve gotten addicted to your channel in the last few days. Started my backyard veggie bed already! Love how you are so into these veggies.
  • My wife and I bought a very small sunflower plant last week from Lowe's, it wasn't even bloomed or anything, and it's growing amazingly fast. It's practically doubled in size and 4 flowers bloomed on it and are about the size of softballs.
  • @nanab.3691
    Great video! A quick correction for the novice gardener: the video says all root crops have edible greens. There are a few exceptions to this rule, such as parsnip and potato. Check before you munch!
  • @yellowmellow6
    Excellent speaking skills there. Not too slow not too fast, and no pause like uh, uhm or stuttering. Damn 😩🔥
  • @MAMAyBEBEs
    “Nice pea flavor” 😅😂🤪 I’m such a child...
  • @lucian_m.r.m
    Just came across this channel a few days a go and now addicted. I love how he shows you what you can make with your crops. The food ideas get me so hyped! Thank you so much.
  • @outdoorsmom2000
    Just a side note.... you can eat kale stems : ) I like to put them in a frying pan, add water to coat the bottom of pan, and cook/steam them until tender (a few minutes)... you can also add kale leaves once the stems are cooked (they only take a minute). Really good mixed in with scrambles eggs and other veggites... or just as a side topped with a little butter, salt, & pepper!

    Your vocabulary and articulation is phenomenal! Also the gardening tips are great!

    Kevins videos have taught me a lot about raised bed gardening. I recently started my first bed and have built a second for my fall planting. Now I have to get this book too 😭 thanks Kevin!
