We've added planting charts for all of our picks in these videos so you can translate our suggestions to your unique growing zone! - Kevin
Love that you're including growing zones and start times. This is so helpful! So much of what you guys can grow outdoors, I can't in my cold zone 4. Glad I didn't try planting ginger outside as it was something I was considering!
Took me a second to realize what you were saying lol but haricot means bean, and vert means green. I liked your pronunciation haha
This was a wonderful video. In regard to the charts, is the month when they can be started outdoors? Some are well before last frost date.
link to the planting charts? i know they were in the video, but do you have them on the blog?
Including the charts is awesome, and super helpful for those who may struggle with knowing when to plant certain crops!
Fun fact, Nasturtium leaves are a natural antibiotic! Just eat the leaves right off the plant. The flowers are edible too and a great addition to salads
Thanks for the tip🙂
Though I am not surprised; “God’s pharmacy” (aka nature) has many remedies.
lol “feels like a purple, emotionally” I love your videos guys
If you don't know what the color is, it doesn't make sense. Just get some of those glasses made for color blindness, then you would know!
@@carrier7399where can I purchased them? I understand that one needs alot of money and a prescription.
“I’m partially color blind, it’s hard for me to tell, but that feels like a purple emotionally to me” 🥺
Liked and subbed! ❤🌱
I know, that was so charming!
He's fucking cute 😅🥰
Love to hear Kevin say "a fairy-ish vibe" You've come a long way from just edible gardening.
LOL true.
You can tell that Meg is really getting more comfortable in front of the CZcams audience. I remember when she was first featured on Epic. You guys found a gold mine with her. Keep her on! She fits right in with the two of you and you can tell how knowledgable she is about gardening. I love watching her tips and garden to table content on IG and TikTok and now I love watching her be more educational here. She is just a delight!
Aw thank you so much for the encouragement! What a sweet comment ❤
She's awesome!!!
Go Meg!🎉
It’s awesome having input from someone else who is an east coast zone 7 gardener. I’m up in Delaware, and I feel like our east coast climates are fickle compared to Cali.
@@meggrowsplants What part of NC are you in? I'm central, in the Triangle and we were just bumped up to 8a. I'm wondering how ginger and turmeric would do outside here.
This year with the major anxiety politics is generating this video are some of the only solace I can get, thank God for gardening!!!!
The comment of the year.
Thanks for everything. I was thinking while at work last tonight, how impressive your accomplishments are. You took the #1 excuse of “I don’t have enough space to garden” and completely invalidated it through your own action and made gardening into a thriving/successful career of education. Awesome!
He is the best!!!
@Meg that trellis ! I need one!
Your seed catalog is beautiful and filled with so much information on how to grow a garden! I've never seen a catalog like this before - amazing.
Jacque!! Because of your carrot tips, I was able to get my carrots to germinate for the first time ever! 😭 The cardboard trick worked perfectly. Thank you!!
I remember planting the potatoes on Good Friday every year when I was a youngster. It was thought to grow best because of the moon being in a certain position. Remember that Lent and Easter are always on a different period on the lunar calendar cycle. We also made our sauerkraut on a certain time of the moon because it was more desirable for fermentation. My Auntie said it kept the kraut a nice color. If you look at the Farmers Almanac when to plant it is based the Lunar Calendar also.
Cool!
What ? Marigolds smell great !! Also one bonus with nasturtium is that they are edible, leaves, flowers and pickled seeds
I love marigolds smells too
I love the marigold smell too
I love love love the scent and it brings back the best of childhood memories!
I love the planting charts. Very helpful for us who still have a while to go until we have good weather
I started ginger at the beginning of last May 1, 2023 in Minnesota (Zone 4) and I ended up with +4 Lbs by the end of September when frost started to threaten in early October. I did not expect it to grow in the first place since I have a north exposure with maybe 3 hours of morning light at best, but it started to bloom at the 5-month mark until deer at the flowers and the shoots. The test was in a large 15" and hanging 11" Pot. This year I will be testing out Grow bags 3#(Pound) and 5# since they do not need depth to grow. Freezing turned the ginger to jelly so the variety I had does not seem to tolerate freezing. The companion Planting you posted was also helpful.
I'm starting ginger in my studio apartment in Minneapolis.
The love of basil and tomato plants together It's just when he lean over to go pick a tomato and there's basil growing underneath it Oh my goodness It just makes me so happy
I really like that you are giving us species that grow well in containers. Thanks
Black beans and rice give me such energy without making me sleepy. I survived an entire year on a mix of dried bulk legumes I bought, a big bag of Himalayan brand white rice, and whatever I could grow in the yard(long story short I turned thirty and my mom decided it was time for me to move in with her again... Empty Nest Syndrome paired with NPD is real, and an abusive parent will do crazy crazy crazy things to get their way)
I feel for you. Take good care of yourself.
Honestly a really good combo, black beans & risce. Hope you're OK - Kevin
@@chickentender4037 Thanks, Tender and Kev. I am finally free, just over a year now. Thanks for looking out. 🫂🥂🌱🌼 May your gardens have fifteen percent more harvests this year!
Npd?

Love how you are talking about the vibe of your garden and your comment about how this flower emotionally feels like a purple to me.
Kevin, I cannot thank you enough for all sharing all the gardening tips with us.
Thank you for building my confidence as a gardener. I feel like watching your videos is like attending a “gardening university.”
I have learned so much from your tutorials.
We appreciate your passion for gardening.
We planted Sarpo Mira's from Wood Prairie Family Farms and had great results. Ordered 1 lb of seed potatoes,
which isn't much. We received 12 very small potatoes. Net results, 45+lbs, from 1 lb planted. We've managed to
keep about 40 egg sized potatoes we harvested to plant this Spring. Can't wait to get started.
Garlic is almost set it and forget it. 162 cloves fit nicely planted in a 4x8' raised bed, planted on a 5" grid.
Nice video TYFS All
That's an amazing variety - huge fan of Sarpo Mira myself - Kevin
Forever grateful to have stumbled across your channel back in 2021 during my pregnancy. Since then you all have been my little family’s go to for all things homesteading.
Grazie por todo! 🖤🌎
I’ve just bought a greenhouse and going to grow my own vegetables/fruit. I can’t wait. First time. Wish me luck😂
CONGRATS!!!
@@epicgardening Thank you☺️
You’re gonna do great, mandy🤍🤍
@@Proverbs_8_feeds_my_soul Thank you🤍
Something you might want to do is keep a garden journal. You will make mistakes, and you will have some successes. Write them down so you can learn from them. I'm 67 and had my first garden at 10, and still learn every year. I'll think "I'll try x" and sometimes "x" was a great idea, and sometimes it wasn't. You don't know until you try!
This is getting me excited for gardening season. Always very informative videos with helpful tips and tricks. Thanks!
Thanks for the cardboard tip on the carrots!
This is one of the most helpful Spring Garden planning video I have seen in years! THANK YOU!!
I love the purple basil I got and hot and spicy oregano. I just grow them under a grow light in the kitchen for easy access.
Love seeing more of Meg she’s great
Agree!!
This video is excellent! you are all so knowledgeable and the suggestions are great, especially for those of us who are fairly new to gardening. Thank You!❤
Wonderful information and I love your gardens! The variety of colours and textures makes it very attractive ❤ thank you for sharing
The best information for a balcony grower thank you very much ....and might i add love this style of learning keep going through the whole season with the insider tip tricks and hacks. Thank you again from Canada
This was so helpful and is getting me excited. I’m planning out my second garden ever and was feeling nervous but this is giving me confidence.
Loved the format, production quality, and just enough details on planting and growing to help me feel encouraged, but not overwhelmed. Best video yet!
This is the best channel… I am soon to build the garden I’ve always wanted and you just helped me so much! I’m a new sub and HUGE fan!😊
Top notch info right here!!! I’m loving how you’ve transformed your lifestyle and your business. It’s truly inspirational! Cheers to you all!
Hey, I love this video, it got all of y’all together to put out a great video about many different plants and I think it’s the best one yet. Keep up the good work.
I'm really loving your new format of your channel. Its great to have the verity of other gardening experts. 😊
We enjoy watching and learning from you and Jacques.
You are both awesome!
Thank you!
Thank you for all this information! I’ve been trying to start a garden project in my yard. My garden has been successful. My area is very prone to droughts and heat that kills almost all crops even though it has a close proximity to San Diego. I’ve seen that taking the chance during the cold seasons is the best and with these videos I’ve been able to have my dead desert yard into a nutrient rich fertile yard!
I must say, your introductory picture, shows your beautiful smile. And of course, we need more joy in the world. Thanks for sharing your smile and your knowledge😊
This is so helpful so informative and make so excited for planting season. Thank you!
Welcome Meg! Great job sharing good information!
Fantastic!!!! I was starting some stuff in my aerogatdens but I need to plant more more more stuff! I obsessively collect seeds from my marigolds, nasturtiums, morning glories..ok everything I can get seeds from! This is so exciting for me in March. Thank you all! You madey day 🎉
This episode was packed with great info. Thank you.
Excellent video. I have always purchased my plants but in the last five years I have been starting my plants indoors. The learning curve to start things is huge. Every bit of share wisdom is priceless.
Thank you for all this useful information!! Tips really help! I'm planting new cross this year and this will help my success! ❤
Yeaaa! Its Meg again, love seeing her on here. Happy growing 💚
I love how easy it is to grow potatoes! I rely heavily on marigolds and nasturtiums
Great timing. I’m making a garden this year, planted 4 apple trees last year and started some seeds last weekend. Can’t plant outside until Mother’s Day but I need the time for a lot of work to do to get ready.
Thank you!! I just started a potato bed and got carrot seeds as a gift, so excited carrots are on y’all’s recommended list 🙏
Love the added zones. Sent The video to my sister in law (a beginner in her new zone) so helpful
Excellent and timely spring garden presentation.
Great video ! I am loving your new format !!! Thank you , Kevin 🥰
i like this set up with the different zones. So many gardeners are in CA, FL and OR. Love the different zone.
I'm in Zone 4
I love the 3 of you. Always great information and reminding me I need to get busy. Love Meg and all things herbs (we are fellow butterfly lovers and raisers).
This was so easy to understand. You taught me so much!
Love linaria! I grew the fairy bouquet up here in Alaska last year. They just kept growing and growing all summer!
Glad to see you back! Big fan for years now👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you lovelies soooo much! My daughter tells me I'm not a beginner gardener and for the most part, she is right....however watching this video excites me, because I know there is always something new to learn! Thanks Jacque! I'll sow my carrot seeds now....& I am also a chaos gardener and I especially love when plants self-seed :) I then dig them up and move and gift them. Take care! Love from Texas!
The planting chart is a great idea! Love you guys so much! So proud of your success and I’ve been a fan for years. Much love and continued success to you all! Hugs from Tejas!
💜🪴💐💜🪴💐💜🪴💐💜
You bet!!
Because of videos such as yours my thumb gets a little greener every year.🙂
Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge.
May God Bless you and keep always.
just planted 10 lbs of potatoes into 6 rows. our fourth year growing them. very fun and tastes sooooo good
I just planted 5 potatoes in a large pot. I'm hoping they grow
Wow, so helpful guys! I learned a ton and I'm excited to grow ginger and turmeric - didn't know it was possible 🎉
I enjoy your guest growers and their input.
Thank you for all your hard work on this video
Potatoes are also easy to grow in the kind of nursery pots that a lot of good sized orchard and landscaping trees come in. I think the ones I'm thinking of are 20 gallons. They make harvesting easy too, since you can dump them out and sift through them for potatoes.
Love that cutting board at the end. I'm in the Florida panhandle in Pensacola and know of at least 2 that grow a lot of ginger and then a lot of ginger varieties and treat absolutely as a perennial.
Great information. Have been having great success in my small backyard garden here in Las Vegas Following a lot of your advice. Big admirer. You have encouraged me a lot. I have never gardened till 2 years ago when I stumbled on one of your video. Thanks for all you do.
Love to hear this - Kevin
Excellent presentations, very helpful & interesting, thank you!!!
I love this series! Thank you!
I really like the addition of the planting charts! So handy! I enjoy your videos and have been a long-time subscriber, but I was always sort of lost and a bit discouraged when it came to understanding the zones. Thank you for thinking of the noobs 🙂
More improvements to come!
I've had great success with carrots by covering the seed bed with row cover - easy to keep moist until time to remove the cover. Great video, guys. Thank you!
Works so well!
Row cover is great for this, water passes through and you can see what's going on!
I like your posts. I don't think I have ever been disappointed. Now I find that I am enchanted by Meg. You guys are informative but she is that and so sweet. Now you really are Epic.
The timing for this video is awesome!
Thanks so much! Great info!😊
Truly enjoyed this video. Alot of good helpful information.
Amazing video as usual! always great useful information! thanks!!!!
This was so informative! Thank you!!!
Love your channel, i bought your seeds and garlic and waiting on my birdies beds to get here. Cant wait for spring. Thanks for all the inspiration and information!
Best of luck this season!
Excellent video. Thanks for all the great info.
Fantastic video with great information. I like hearing explanation and more information from each 'presenter'. Also, I have always loved the gorgeous seed packets' artwork.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks. what a great video. Something for everyone and many things for most of us!
I love your channel so much, thank you for showing Meg more, I am in same zone. She is wonderful! (P.S. Dear Meg in my country (Slovakia) we call Marigold "the Stinky flowers" :)
Loved to see you shared time with Becky from acrehomestead! I follow you both from almost 2021, love your explanations! 😊
Thank you for this video and your very detailed description.👍🏿
I just planted the little fingers and Tonda carrots last week, fingers crossed!❤😂
Hey guys! Thank you for the tips❤🌻🌻🌻
Thank you for hearing our pain. Including zone information 😁
Really helpful information. Thank you!
Thanks for all these great tips!! I purchased grow bags first time and excited to try new things!! 🎉🎉🎉
Love it!
Adding the starting times for the different zones... priceless!
Great stuff as usual, thank y'all!!!
Great information, thank you!
I just subscribed and enjoyed this video. Thanks from Central Oklahoma
Hi Kevin, I really like this video. Nice to let different people have their say. I will definitely try the plants mentioned, which are suitable for my planting zone. Thank you for the information. Kind regards, Magda van den Burg. Utrecht, Netherlands Zone 8a
I appreciate the added zone information as I live in zone 5b.
WOW! What a great and informative video…thanks!
Love watching your content, a such a difference to what I'm sowing in the UK, I've found the last 2 years the sowing times are a few weeks off due to the inconsistent weather but that's the fun of gardening 🙏🌱
Yeah it's SO hard to give good recs even to a single zone let alone the world!
Thank you for this information! Uplifting
Thank you for this! I have been procrastinating on planning my garden and this has given me a boost! I'm excited to look through my Bontantical interests seed catalog and I'm looking forward to picking out things to grow this year. 🥰
Best of luck!
So helpful! Thank you
