Protect Your Vegetable Garden from Small Animals & Build a No Cost Raised Bed at Veggielution

[vampeve82]

do you have any videos on rhubarb trying to get as much info and very small spaces, thing that can be move to a different location and not wasting materials and money

We had to trap several ground hogs and move them across the Charles river to grow anything.

[hawkbirdscarer]

I used a SCARER (hawkbirdscarer. com ) it costs nothing and you set it up once and it scares the rodents and birds instinctively. It works! So no killing, no pesticides, no collateral damage, nothing! It's perfect. Hope this helps

I love the idea of recycling old fencing or decking to make a raised bed. I was wondering, since you don't always know what has been put on it, such as paint or sealers, is there a concern about something leeching into the soil and then possibly into your plants, if this kind of wood is used?

Love your videos! I always look forward to them. Thanks!

[growingyourgreens]

I would run the reused fence boards thru a planer with vacuum attachment) to remove all that stuff before using them. I would not sand it all off, it would get too messy and create lots of dust. Of course, do the best you can do to start growing. IF you dont have a planer, then try to find reused boards that have no coatings. Fence boards cost about $2 each at the hardware store, so they are not too expensive anyway, get them if you are really concerned.

@growingyourgreens Thanks John!

Chickens love the carrot tops!

[wslandry]

Hey your videos are so great who cares if you mess up a couple of words. Thanks again for all your informative videos. The only think that bothers me is talking to someone who says the word "like" in every sentence. Like you know what I mean :)

[rubydue]

Keep talking the way you talk John, I understand you just fine and that is the point. You are a font of information :)



[Kathe555]

@rubydue

Agreed.

On Broccoli: " if you don't like it ..grow your own - because when you grow it ..your prolly gonna like cos it tastes much better"

Quality.

Hi John, thanks to your Lowe's free tree video, I not only got my free pine "bush" tree, I got tomatoes for .50cents a piece and they were out of the peppers but at least I got what I did cheaply. I wouldve never known had u not said something about it. So ty alot!! =) I got 3 or 4 varieties so I am happy!

[btigtime2]

I have two barns and 36 raised beds and tons of compost dirt all by picking up off the side of the road.

[Helioforge]

Hey John, love the gardens under the viaducts! I had to take a thousand english classes in high school and college, too much emphasis on silly words! lol

Oh yeah, the fence boards/stakes work great for raised beds, you don't even have to enclose them on all sides, just use them to shore up the dirt in places!

[EnlightenedSky]

Another informative video! Thanks for your work and research. I am not at all bothered by your pronunciation of various words - it's part of what makes you unique. And, I just adore the little laugh/giggle/chuckle you often make at the end of some of your sentences. Makes me smile every time!

[julzbo]

Hey, John! great video! You always find something interesting to show us. Don't let one person's comments bug you. In fact you are correct about "wolf"! One wolf IS a wolf. Two of them are wolves! Again, thanks the vids and encouragement! BTW, you have so much food growing at your house, do you sell some at farmer's markets or to restaurants? Sorry - guess I should watch the ones you made in the beginning! Have a great day, John!

[thehittmann1981]

Your pronunciation seems to be very similar to an Australian accent I have no troubles understanding you when you speak unlike people with this american accents. :)

[Carrill]

You are so cute!

[souless1985]

Hi John. Your videos are great. I learned so much from your videos. Im currently growing my own food and cant wait to harvest them. But anyway, can you please explain the Senate Bill (S510) that passed last year which makes it illegal to grow, share, trade, sell your own food. I did some research myself, just want to see if i missed anything and maybe you can inform your subscribers that were not aware of this. Thanks. And keep on posting your great videos.

[michaelstanger]

People that criticize someone like you are losers. You help thousands and thousands of people daily get there shit together. Since I found you I have added on twice to raised beds and even teached kids about gardening at a local school. I am trying to pass on the knowledge. Thanks Jon

[delaserdudeXD]

Great Vid, The row cover fabric looks like a very light one, that is used mainly to stop insects & it may add a little warmth but not much. Of course it's a video so I can't be sure of the thickness. Thought this might help.

[venicestu]

John your absolutely perfect. I love this site and your positive energy as you share and mentor fellow garden lovers. I thank the good lord there's people out there like you, willing to share information with us fellow raw food lovers. I also appreciate what you do at discount juicer.com to help us make informed decisions. When you give the people with negative comments acknowledgment you give away your positive energy. Just let them wither on the vine and use them for compost. TY

[asynvegas]

Your awesome John and your voice is perfect! I use to live in the bay area and I miss it so much! I'm a total fan of your vids! Keep it green! Haha

[Tommyr]

Don't worry about the speech. No one is perfect. You say tom ah toe and I say tom ay toe! NO big deal! Thanks for your videos!

[moonshadow93924]

"Where is Away" is my favorite term. I have said it to my kids (grown now) their entire lives. I get lots of plant containers on the streets recycle day. I have about 600 1-25 gallon containers! I grow garlic in the small ones, beans in the medium ones, and tomatoes in the large ones. I use my raised beds for my root vegies and squash.

[FishingNinja1]

AWESOME VIDEO

[yedon68]

...Don't worry your great....PS I have the same thing...and I'm 66 years old...God bless....!

[mombo39]

You are a great inspiration regardless of your pronunciation!! So what, who cares? Love your videos and keep up the good work for you are helping many people.

[whatweshouldknow]

great video, you always have great info....nice shirt today too

[GospelTruth37059]

I love the way you go to different places!  Your videos are fun to watch :)

[BikeManDan1]

Thanks again John

My favorite free material for raised beds are red bricks. They are given away all the time on Craigslist (chimney removals, patio remodels, etc). They are easy to build with (dry stack) and will last FOREVER unlike wood that will rot in a few seasons

[cohnkrad]

Love your work! and I have always understood what you been saying in videos. People who complain are of the very few who needs to have 'someone' to let out some of their negativity on. - Great attitude anyways toward it.. he he ^^

[jesusislord614]

I say woof too. And treadmeal. My husband makes fun of me all the time. Your videos are great regardless :)

[YouJustFoundTheTruth]
