  1. OMG!!! My walmart had the round raised bed on clearance for $5. I bought
    every one they had and was doing the Happy Dance in the parking lot.

  2. You have some amazing videos with great information!! I would like to try
    growing indoors. I’d like to try growing some salad greens during the
    winter here in Minnesota. Baby greens I suppose!

  6. Hey John, yet another great video. You mentioned cardboard as a possible
    garden container. I lined my garden pathways with cardboard which was
    covered with tree mulch. I’ve heard that cardboard can draw termites. Is
    there any truth to this? Thanks, Mike.

  7. I use fermented seaweed fertilizer on my plants… EPIC growth! You should
    try using it in different ways; as a mulch, fermented, in compost tea, etc.

  8. hello Harry I was wondering if you could maybe answer a question about the
    wild flower seed mix. I live in Arizona and am curious if maybe i could
    grow the partial shade mix under my trampoline. the sun does somewhat shine
    through the fibers of the trampoline and am just wondering if the seed mix
    grows like mad! thanks

    then says you add them to soups or waters? That’s it?

  19. I’ve tried to get John to answer my question.(I do understand he can’t
    answer all the questions we throw at him, so I’m fine with that!) Maybe one
    of you can help? I started some kale in my yard last spring and it’s
    holding up good with our winter here. I need to know how to cut it back and
    when? Should I have cut it back in the fall? And from what I understand, it
    will branch out where I cut it back. Is this right? Thanks for any input!
    I’ve loved having it and have eaten from it many times!

  21. @justgivemethetruth, that’s pretty well what everybody does with it. Soups
    & smoothies. If you will google “green powder recipes” or something like
    that, you will find lots of information, including recipes for making green
    powder.
