Yes! I consistently have such a good laugh at epic-vids. I only wish there was a UK gardening channel that was light hearted and comedic like this one! đ
Hey guys, I don't know if you have ever made salt-preserved lemons, but I made a batch of salt-preserved LIMES a few months ago when I had an abundance of Mexican limes on hand, and they were amazing!!! I used some in a batch of machaca meat, and it was fabulous. Quick and easy to do, and they keep forever in the fridge for cooking or cocktails. Just search on salt-preserved lemons and you'll see recipes, but substitute with limes. Also, I finally have some decent blooms on my finger lime tree; I can't hardly wait!
Whenever I see videos of people growing and eating the food that they harvested it makes me wish I was friends with them so that I could also get in on that! đ Every time they showed a new fruit my mind would start to think of things I could make if I had some, like apricot tart, apple strousel, fig newton's, strawberry short cake and peach cobbler.
Since we are sharing stories: when I first came across an aloe Vera drink, I didnt know what aloe could do. Drank the whole liter bottle in one day. I was thoroughly relieved the next day.
I feel the same way about apples. Sometimes I just skin them so I don't have that experience. I always thought it was just my weirdness and I was alone feeling that way. Thank you Kevin for revealing that and making me feel better. God bless you and Jaques.
My family eats about 10lbs of strawberries a week. I'm a new gardener and desperately trying to learn how to grow them đđ. Love the videos. You guys crack me up
They really grow like weeds. Tip: buy a hanging basket from a box store... usually has 6-8 plants in it. I started a 4x8 bed 3 yrs ago like this and this year the plants were overflowing.
As others are saying, strawberries are super easy to grow. Also, I noticed that since the homegrown ones are super flavorful, even when slightly underripe, that we eat much fewer of the homegrown ones. Just one is an amazing treat for us. I feel like for the few plants we have, we get strawberries for awhile. It is not that many daily but each one is a delicious treat. Combine that with a few tomatoes, some herbs, some greens, and the garden becomes a lovely place to hang out and graze.
I have to say it, Jacques and the nectarines reminded me of my pup and my first strawberry plant. I had literally one strawberry grow and I was SO excited to actually harvest it. On the day it was ready, I go out, ready to pick, and see her with her little lips pulled back as she delicately plucks my one single strawberry. She looked so happy I couldn't even be mad. So, Jacques, your spirit animal is a black and white am staff mix named Maggie. â€ïžđđđ
Kev, Tuned in to Next level gardening's q & a today and someone asked Brian if he was going to do a colab vlog with you. He said he would love to if you were interested. That would be awesome.
We harvested like 80 Asian plums this year, and that tree was only in the ground for 2 years. That thing is only 4 feet tall, and every branch was full of fruit. SoCal is great for citrus, but it seems that stone fruits perform well too.
hahaha thanks guys.. loved your chicken's reactions to fruit.. I don't think I've had a fresh apricot, dried and tinned yes.. peaches, strawberries, and nectarines yumm thank you for showing us your garden, love it..
My dad had a dwarf peach tree that even after aggressive culling, produced such big fruit he had to jam 2x4s under the branches to hold them up! Ahhh the cobblers from that tree... Hope your peaches are sweeter next year guys!
Literally spend my nights with my husband watching new videos!!! You all have inspired us to grow. We ran across you a year ago and itâs now a weekly adventure for us. Thank you so much for helping us connect and find a passion that brings us together!!!! Btw the peaches look amazing!!!! Canât wait for my tree to start producing
I love videos with Kevin and Jacques so much. Whether you are harvesting and tasting, planting seeds, setting up garden beds and planting, or just trying to outdo each other at some kind of gardening, I love it all đ
OMG the bromance you have combined with the editing is what every other gardening channels is missing. The more ridiculous you get, the more I am enjoying your videos. Fun times!
"something about the moon dynamics" LOL that's me connecting every little sign with the universe đź Kevin takings pics of his cat while sleeping, RELATE!!!
My friend's dad in Oregon grows peaches, and there is nothing as primally satisfying as picking a peach off the tree and sinking your teeth into it. I bring a flat home, and my dad makes jam with them! It's so good.
Great video, I was smiling the whole time. MAN, it's gotta feel great to start harvesting fruit from your trees. We planted a bunch last year (in MN) and more this year, so we may get some, but I can't wait.
Iâm not one so much for the insane or frenzy phrasing, but your crazy whacky style is an awesome trend to set for the gardening world, really unique, great video!
I've been growing peaches and nectarines for a few years and definitely pick them when they just pop out of the tree like you did. Sometimes I just wait for the fruit to fall on the ground and get them like that. If you don't have the threat of animals picking them on the ground, you can just add lot of mulch to soften the impact of the fruit and accomplish maximum ripeness on the tree by picking them when they fall on their own. There are some varieties that like to cling to the fruit longer and they rot on the tree, so watch out for that.
I have all those trees, my Anna is like a lemon all year producing ! NEVER can tell when to pick my apples , jeeze either too early and sour or too late and mushy , got my Eva down Delicious Keep on doing guys your great
I love apricots.. I also love dried spicy mango .. I dont have a tree but I make them myself and omg! I sometimes end up eating up to 3 mangos worth and yep.. next several days are not fun.. but oh man it was soo worth it...lol..
Every video with Kevin and Jacques together is amazing. Kevin exudes so much more happiness (and better jokes) when Jacques is around. Love you guys together!
That was quite a bit of fun. My husband loves to pick a lemon, cut a slice and put it in his water. He can make one lemon last about a week. The lemons can keep on the tree for it seems like a year or close to it. We love having citrus right outside. I need to get a few more cold hardy citrus though. The lemon tree needs a little bit of protection in the winter here in 8b. Let the peaches sit a bit if you like them really ripe. If they do not sweeten up, you can always cook them, either plain or with syrup. Personally, I like my peaches hard and I only like white peaches. Yellow peaches have a flavor I can eat only if I cook them, so I do not bother. I kind of have almost the same thing with yellow vs white nectarines.
You talking about dried apricots, reminds me of what happened of when i stayed at my grandparents. After dinner and just before bed my grandad brought out of the fridge, some cucumbers in vinegar. I think i was about 8 or something. I liked salt and vinegar crisps and pickled onions so i thought i would have some with my grandad. Meanwhile, my Nan is saying i think you have had enough and i am like, no these are nice. Cut a few hours later to me chucked into the bath as apparently both ends as didn't. I was reminded of this as we had a takeaway fish and chips treat dinner tonight. Our child usually doesn't like pickles but they volunteered to eat a small gherkin and they liked it! They didn't eat it whole but it's, an advancement. We can try them with Branston pickle and cheese sandwich next and then olives. Apart from anchovies, which even i don't like and the increase in chilli heat, there is no bounds to cooking now! Apart from Mussels that is because, hubby and i are both allergic to. For a primary/elementary school white kid from the UK, these days i'll take that to the bank. On the flip side, my 17 yr old niece and her bf is visiting soon with her bf from NL and i was told that the vegetables needs to be purified into their meals.... Tbf, having tasted my older sisters cooking, it is bland af and definitely takes after my mum's cooking. Before she passed away when i was 10, i remember my dad always joking about how he could tar mac the road with my mums gravy and yeah it was true! lol. My dad made friends with the the new neighbours from across the road in the block of flats, that were from Malawi and i got to hang out with the kids, learn about the "toilet" technique, religion and how to make food with spices. When i ended up in care due to a separate situation, I got to spend more time with my nan learning how to garden and cook. That is when i started my gravy training and it took about 15 years to perfect it. With cooking and gardening, it's a passion that takes years to pin down. I am really jealous of the size of your property as that would be an easy ÂŁ1.5-2m where we are on the outskirts of London!
Did Jacques just blame Babka for the smashed peach!!!? Lmbo...you both are awesome! I never knew anyone who didn't like apples! What about apple pie or homemade applesauce? Thanks for all you both do!
Iâm so excited to see youâre growing a pomegranate cause Iâm also based in California and feel like itâs been hard finding info about growing it in our climate. Though I am in the Bay Area so it may be a bit more trial than San Diego but itâs by far my favorite fruit and am determined to grow them. I currently have 2 trees that are both in their 2nd year of being in the ground (both were kept in a giant pot for about a year before being put in the ground). These are my 4-5th attempt of growing a Pom tree and am very excited to say they are both baring a lot of fruit. Today I found a pest on one of them that Iâve never seen before (I believe they might be leaf-footed plant bugs) and Iâm curious what troubles you will encounter and how youâll solve them âșïž so excited and proud to see of how much youâve expanded your plant knowledge and how far your content has come since I first found you through the pothos propagation video!
9:15 I don't know if olives are similar to what we typically call stone fruit, but they're harvested by clamping a shaker device to the tree and putting a tarp underneath to catch the fruit.
I was all set to aggressively prune my first strawberry blossoms set, to try it out. But then we had a VERY dry spring in New Mexico. Lots of wind and sun, which resulted in sad little leaves and only two or three blooms. We got absolutely drowned today, so I'm hoping they bounce back.
lmbo...Stone Fruit Frenzy sounds like a video game. I can tell the berry fever is at its peak because this episode was so chaotic! đ€Ł I'm jealous of all those peaches though.
I'm considering a fruit tree in the front yard to replace whatever the previous owner's removed and left the stump hole. I was told the previous tree may have had termites so I'm a little paranoid about putting anything there and inviting trouble. Grew strawberries for the first time and there was some trial and error on when to pick them. Finally figured out the right perfectly ripe smell.
Yummy. Your Apricots have me drooling! Just found you two and this delicious, warm-feeling entertainment in February, during a mini blizzard in 'ClayBanks', Michigan. I feel so much better, THANKYOU! đ€€đđđđđđđđđ»
When I lived in California the house I bought had an apricot tree in the backyard. B E S T fruit ever, right off the tree and warmed by the sun. I really miss that tree.
You know your friendship is perfect when it allows you to be your wonderfully weird self. I laughed out loud so many times in this video. You guys eat fruit like you're wine connoisseurs.
I have always said the same thing about apple's. Not worth eating raw. The skin and texture. But love them processed in pies, jam, juice, sauce, etc. Good looking fruit harvest. I'm jealous about the citrus and figs. Can't grow citrus in the midwest with our winters.
Try taking extra fruit. Freeze them in small bags. Have smoothies for months. I mix vanilla almond milk with bananađ and home grown frozen peachđ from freezer plus other berries if you have them. I have the Florida prince peach here in zone 10b
So jealous of your fig tree. I used to gather the brown figs from a tree on campus at Southwestern College to make preserves but they started a major overhaul on the 3 acre Landscape Technology area and their fig trees were sacrificed for the project. They had a yellow fig, like yours, but they used to get upwards of 4-5 inches long with a skinny neck that was at least half the body length. Let them grow longer before harvest, if you can wait that long. Yum!
Apples, Cherries, Pears, and Peaches do very well here in Northern Nevada. My neighbor has a 30ft paradise apple tree that is covered in fruit and my dwarf 10 foot pear tree gave me enough fruit last year to make quite a bit of sauce with it. Awesome to see you harvesting alot of stone fruit in a hot climate like San Diego.
We the people need some merch that says, âmight be a dirty surprise in hereâ. Iâd prefer a shirt, but a hat might work as well.đđđ When I tell you I CACKLED when Kevin said thatđđđđđ. Yâall are too much and Iâm here for itđđ€
Hey Kevin and Jacques! Check out Edge of Nowhere Farm. They are a newly established farm in Wittman, Arizona and have really great tips on fruit tree care. I think youâll love them!
You guys just need to travel the country planting gardens wherever you go. I volunteer to go first! And then you need to come back the end of summer to harvest. Love your videos!
You inspire me to keep going! New to gardening, trying to garden in depleted soil (its really just dirt) and wanting just be good at it overnight so I can grow 100% of my produce. I wish I could grow all the things that you do! Dragonfruit doesn't like zone 6 and apparently, neither do pomegranates (I tried the latter) đ Thank you for putting this together! It was nice to see some lighthearted gardening đ
Listen fam I'm gonna be honest - the more unhinged the content is getting, the better. I am fully here for this. Keep it up!

The editor went crazy on this one and I appreciate the jokes a lot,gave me a good laugh. This video really made me feel so much better haha.
You guys are hysterical. Please never part because I can only imagine how good this will be when you're like 70.
You guys are hilarious! Love this kind of interaction from you. Itâs real, itâs funny and itâs informative. Best thing Iâve watched all week!
Yes, this!!
Yes! I consistently have such a good laugh at epic-vids. I only wish there was a UK gardening channel that was light hearted and comedic like this one! đ
"While I was away Jacque took it upon himself to harvest 100% of the Nectarines..." đđ
Your apricot story at the end had me in tears haha

That whole peach picking scene was a "that's what she said". Go ahead Kev, give it a tug and see if it comes...đđđ
LOL I had to resist giving the camera a little wink ;)
This why I love Kevin. He makes gardening so much more interesting compared to other channels đ
@@epichomesteading the "oh yeahs" were enough
Glad I wasnât the only one thinking it haha! You guys are hilarious! Also, loved the GTA reference with the dropped peaches!
I laughed out loud for real at that.

Oh Annie
I never laugh as much as I do when I watch garden videos with both of you. I learn a lot and just enjoy the videos so much. Keep them coming!
Thatâs hilarious! I had a friend who thought she was allergic to cherries, because she ate the whole bag at once! Everything in moderation!!đđ

I've been growing peaches and nectarines for a few years and definitely pick them when they just pop out of the tree like you did. Sometimes I just wait for the fruit to fall on the ground and get them like that. If you don't have the threat of animals picking them on the ground, you can just add lot of mulch to soften the impact of the fruit and accomplish maximum ripeness on the tree by picking them when they fall on their own.
There are some varieties that like to cling to the fruit longer and they rot on the tree, so watch out for that.
The wasted "that's what she said" moments haha ;) It was the Kevin and Jacques content that earned my subscription for the homesteading channel!

Oh no! Good luck with them though
I harvested Honeyberries (haskaps) & strawberries today. Raspberries are coming soon . . . I must have berry fever, too.
As a Southern Californian, I'm super impressed with the stone fruit. I always thought our winters were too warm for those.
Hilarious!!! Love your channel Kevin! And well done on growing such epic fruit!

When I tell you I CACKLED when Kevin said thatđđđđđ. Yâall are too much and Iâm here for itđđ€
The snapshot of the stone fruit frenzy killed me. The faces you guys made just made the episode great in the first 27 seconds!!
Hey Kevin and Jacques! Check out Edge of Nowhere Farm. They are a newly established farm in Wittman, Arizona and have really great tips on fruit tree care. I think youâll love them!
Very informative!
The chickens gave the peach đ no love.!
Lol đ
omg you guys! Fun with fruit! I couldn't stop laughing. Thanks for a great video!
You guys always make me laugh đâŠ. Great chemistry!
You guys just need to travel the country planting gardens wherever you go. I volunteer to go first! And then you need to come back the end of summer to harvest. Love your videos!
You inspire me to keep going! New to gardening, trying to garden in depleted soil (its really just dirt) and wanting just be good at it overnight so I can grow 100% of my produce. I wish I could grow all the things that you do! Dragonfruit doesn't like zone 6 and apparently, neither do pomegranates (I tried the latter) đ
Thank you for putting this together! It was nice to see some lighthearted gardening đ
You guys "hitting" the limes had me in tears
Uncle Jacques and Kevin great videođ€Ł
sometimes leaves scuff the fruit...oranges get beat up witht he leaves. The wind has been horrid...oooh peach jam...yum...
