I wish it was bigger to build a greenhouse but I don’t complain, I’m happy with what I have!
@growingyourgreens Well … I don’t care about broken, old and used furniture. As long as I can use it my money is for the garden! It is about 100m² but has a variety of plants, a small pond, a small rocky garden, annuals, perennials, tropical plants, herbs, vegetables, fruits, a shed, a small tomato greenhouse, water barrels, compost barrels, and it’s far from finished as now I’ll go up in height

Well John, I think you are THE BEST! I saw a great idea for making super cute seed bombs as a Valentine’s gift. What are your thoughts on seed bombs? Yeah, nay? Thank you for sharing you projects & knowledge.

Awesome attitude. …
Awesome attitude. I love hearing this and it’s exactly my philosophy. You can’t do everything immediately, but get started! And I loved that you give credit to the open market of people doing services for eachother freely. keep it up brother~~

John, its all …
John, its all awesome!! Do I correctly understand your using 100% organic compost and mixing in rock dust? Which means you are not using any top soil or top soil / compost mix? Do you have a vido link that discuss this more? I just built my first raised bed and now need to fill it with soil. I have read some pros and cons of using 100% compost vs. a good topsoil/compost mix. Can you elebrate or giving me additional info. Thanks, Frank
I don’t remember on …
I don’t remember on which one of your videos I saw that you’re gonna be in Santa Rosa some time soon and you’re gonna be selling some of your tree collards, please remind me when that is.
Yes. I do rotate …
Yes. I do rotate the non-perennial crops. If you have the space, grow something like fava beans or clover over the winter, in a bed or two on the “rotation” to fix nitrogen.
Great points John.
Great points John.
Life is about …
Life is about compromise sometimes. You just have to find where your able to compromise and where you cannot. I think people who become so afraid of not having everything line up to their ideals ultimately fail to do anything at all. I like what you say in this video because it drives that point home. You have to learn to do something even if it isn’t what you consider ideal. If it is an improvement on what your doing, then DO IT. Thanks John!
Hi John- THIS IS …
Hi John- THIS IS ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO! Just wanted to say thank you for all the great info. I was wondering if you can post your source for the Chineese artichokes you harvested a while back. I really am interested in trying to grow those and the Jerusalem artichokes this year. Thank you~ Tacey

Shades of grey indeed. Best not to get too anal about things, no?
John,
Do you …
John,
Do you rotate the areas that you grow your greens in? I am trying to figure out how to rotate my veggies, when I mainly grow greens?
I think you are your videos are awesome by the way
You can message me …
You can message me through youtube. That being said, Its rare that I reply to personal messages.
I would agree, if …
I would agree, if you look at it on HOW much I am saving on the food Im NOT buying, it can definitely off-set the price of my “gardening hobby”.
That being said, the price of the best-tasting, bio-photon rich food that I harvest fresh from my garden… PRICELESS.
Planting apple …
Planting apple seeds is great if you have “room” and time to play with. Apple seeds are not “true to seed” so you will get a new variety of apple once the tree grows and (if) it fruits. Many apples produced this way may not be sweet, although you may get lucky and invent the bootydaddy variety of apples.. Of course, you can always graft on to apples that don’t turn out to your liking.. or make hard cider out of them

I actually don’t …
I actually don’t find it too strange.. MOST Americans value money above all else.. We see this all the time, Personal Health, Planetary Health, People, Environment suffer because people value MONEY over all else.. People Lie, Cheat and Steal for Money.. Just watch the news. This is what what most of society and the media teaches sheople… I strive to teach and show a better way of living. Hopefully most of my viewers place a higher value on the things that are truly more important than money.

How strange, you put money before your health. I find the joy of gardening, and eating my own produce far outweighs the cost.
So basically do the …
So basically do the best that you can with the resources you have and are available to you. For example I want to use more rock dust but it’s expensive to ship and there aren’t any local places I’m aware of that sell it so I have purchased a small amount. I figure some rock dust is better than no rock dust.
Great video John, …
Great video John,what do you think about planting apple seeds?
