Hey thanks I like this video very helpful
Hi, thanks for this interesting video. What was the last vegetable called? I cannot understand it in the video. I do live in the desert and I am searchong for suitable veggies to grow in the summer.
What part of CA are you in and how did you get injured?
I live in the desert and where I am has great soil
Do they all do good even in the desert heat of Arizona?
How to you keep your soil good season after season when you dont have compost?
Very informative, thank you for the video… I am trying to plant a garden in the desert of Southeastern California, wish me luck and a green thumb… Happy trails💜
Great! Check out my recycled garden experiment https://youtu.be/DVnbWyW5sCI
👍
John, I like how you tend to just allow some "plants" to bolt or not, very good for just enjoying the full-on magnitude of the "plant" but,,,,, PLEASE stop calling everything "guys" I am a guy who had a supervisor in a furniture shop that called every single part(s) of a project "guys." Thank you in advance. John, please, please work on this for me if you don’t mind. Love your vids. John!
Very relevant here in Melbourne Australia now that we have long dry hot summers. I will have to look for the okra, malibar spinach and purple collards. I will probably have to find seed and grow from seed.
I haven’t watched in awhile, when did you move to AZ?
What type of okra?
Who beat you up John?
Haha! Whole paycheck 😂😂for sure !
Are you in AZ?? Our winter garden has been doing great. We’re just North of Phx @ the 2000′ mark. But, our Summer garden was seriously stressed. The okra were stunted. Any tips? I love okra..
I got Dinosaur Kale last December after checking out your video. Plated at start of February. It’s growing very well.
John how did you control aphids on kale? I would like to know what worked..
Why don’t you write the plants names n the videos? It would help a lot people with second language
Thanks John, we’re moving to the southwest and need to grow greens and common veggies. I hope you heal fast and have a happy New Year.
Is that a Marijuana plant besides the okra, lol
Can you share a god seed source?
Grow okra if you want to get raided by the police. It looks like a pot plant.
We have a large raised bed veg garden in the So. Cal desert [Palm Springs]. Each year I explore with different plants to see how they will do. We have had a very hot Spring this year – was 110 f yesterday – on May 8th. This year I planted one artichoke in February. It has grown to about 4′ w X 4" tall – with some side shoots. We have picked over 40 chokes so far, with a few smaller ones still coming. Crazy! We were shocked how well this did, and how productive too. Really enjoy your channel.
My swiss chard grew almost out of control in henderson NV.
What is happening to your hands?
I was surprised to learn that dino kale can take the heat because it comes from italy and the red russian is from a colder climate. I planted both this fall and to my surprise the dino kale did best here in zone 8 with a few light frosts.Weird I think
Wow, so beautiful 🌸
You can’t grow lacinato kale in hot summer heat
КАК! казах, так научился говорить по английски?
His top crops; Thai basil, okra, eggplant, black kale, ruberob (sp?) spinach, swiss chard, purple tree collards,

I’ve never heard if red eggplant…

Thanks for sharing
I just got into gardening. I live in Las Vegas but the only place I have to garden is on a patio with indirect light. DO you think my vegetables will do ok or should I not grow until I move?
I am very interested in how you control aphids. I have collards and I loose most to aphids. Thank you
Very well done 🤓
another excellent video …
* ps. do you dye your hair or they stay naturally black?!

I am about to move for Maine to Palm Springs California and I want to God and even though I am in an electric wheelchair and disabled. I have 43 hours per week of Home Health Care and they can help me with a Garden. It is very different than growing a garden in Maine and I understand a lot of that do to friends in one of the Valley’s which is extremely hot and arid. here I had somebody make me some raised beds up to my waist and I am 6 feet tall so that myself and my helper didn’t have to get down on the ground because I cannot do that my spine is broken from my neck all the way down through my tailbone. The vertebrae are all cracked and that’s just one of a million other things that I deal with and I don’t talk a lot about. Could I use a raised bed like that if it’s deep enough and long enough as well as wide enough? The two I had built here were humongous!
You made a cool video
