I often get asked how much time I spend working in the garden so today I wanted to show you what 2 hours of gardening (while filming myself and setting up the camera) looks like! In this time I setup a new Florida weave for my grafted tomatoes, planted a bunch of peppers, and pruned A LOT of tomatoes as well showing you guys some updates along the way!

Love this type of video. To be honest, I would’ve watched it if it was two hours. Keep up the good work, man.
I don't feel too bad now. I was worried i waited too long (no thanks to the weather) to plant my peppers out because they had started forming peppers in the house. 😮 They bounced back pretty good so far.
Now I'm not so worried about my peppers. Here in Humboldt County California its still in the forties at night. It's currently raining right now. My peppers desperately need to be transplanted. I'll just add some of my deep litter composted chicken manure and shavings to the holes and they'll love it. I add it to all my holes when planting my vegetable garden. It's still been to cold at night. And I just now have been getting my garden setup and ready for planting. I setup a new area for my garden this year. We built a big redwood fence to keep the deer out and I love it. I'm a few weeks behind because of getting the fence in and the weather this year. I'm also so envious watching you guys because you are always so far ahead of me. But you always give me good ideas. Happy gardening everyone 🥳🥳🥳
Jack tried 2 tablespoons of baking soda in a gallon of water and spray it on there and I might not kill what’s there, but it will keep it from progressing because it changes the pH and leaves and it’s very organic
I am going to start the Florida weave on my tomatoes tomorrow. Nice timing for the video. Today, I discovered a pepper plant that over wintered and is starting to grow back. Interesting because I have wicked cold winters. It was probably sheltered by other grow bags and was in a corner. Have a nice trip. I’m looking forward to seeing how you will trellis the bagged tomatoes. 😊
Great video! took lots of notes! you rock!
I'm having to keep rewinding because I keep getting hypnotized by the look of the kale in the background 🤩
Overcast and increased humidity means two things in our Southern California Climate. 1. Powdery Mildrew and 2. Peppers take off! I've found they're not a huge fan of dry heat.
I really appreciate you giving serving suggestions for the produce you grow. I love growing vegetables but I am short on preparation ideas and very few gardener youtubers give prep ideas. Please give more when possible.
I really enjoy your videos, I continue to learn from your tips. TFS
Thanks for the video and safe travels!
theres a noticeable difference in overall plant production when you pick breaker or ripe tomatoes. i see this all the time with my "super san marzano" tomatoes which have a thick skin and can stay on the plant for WEEKS while ripe. the next fruits dont even begin to ripen until the ripe ones are picked also on the yellow leaves affected by powdery mildew: some tomatoes are resistant to PM, like the super san marzano that i have. what resistant means is that they still manage to function even with yellowy infected leaves. the plant i mentioned above looks like its on its last leg but it continues to support its tomatoes.
I have a dumb question. I have a shellfish/fish allergy- should I use the fertilizer that have crab meal and fish stuff am I safe?
Wish I could just push mine on the ground. The reason I have raised beds is cause I have so many trees in the area and the roots are under there. I could not in any way shape or form we might son try to who weighs over 300 pounds we could not get that sucker in the ground.
Great video! It's good to see you pruning your tomatoes and "cleaning" the garden in two hours. Its motivating!
I came across info I'll be using in Ct Valley. Give ea. plant a cup of cool water/rain water before sunset at ground level. This kicks in the plant's immune system and the plant repair/rejuvenate overnight. We rest and repair during sleep time, right? Thank you Jacques. Loving all your veggies. Flowers attracting pollinators and predatory insect to eat the bad guys.
That bloody bird!!! 😆 It keeps whistling something that sounds like a tune and it's driving me nuts! Love the show btw. I watch you more than Kevin!
Love your work ethic, Jacques! I planted 21 cucumbers today, including: Merlin, Sumter, National Pickling, and Party Time. You should try Sumpter. They have high resistance to powdery mildew. Safe travels!
Thank you for the advice about the peppers. Going to stake them tomorrow
Its funny to hear "gray May", because here in the PNW we get "June-uary" 😂
