      @laraemitchell9064 Před 3 lety +17

      IMO, if the subject came up in a conversation with the neighbor about planting trees on their property, you could offer. But I’m with Laura. I think to just “out of the blue” bring it up and suggest it to them, might be a bit presumptuous. After all, if they wanted trees there, they would probably have put some in. A lot depends on how well you know them on a social level.

      @themamabearlife3339 Před 3 lety +13

      They could start the conversation just by simply asking if the view of their storage bothers them. And since many people will deny it, even if it does.... then he could just say, "Well, if you ever get to the point where it does, please just let me know. We would be willing to plants some trees for you for free if you would like them." Then just leave it up to the neighbor to let them know. It doesn't have to be a big thing. Just a friendly offer...

      My opinion,, I think Laura and Aaron had a great response to that question. To Keep life ordinary, Benjamin wanders out while she ifilming & working in their garden, he is a part of the video for a bit, but not showcased, nor is Samantha Grace. Benjamin is too young to realize they are in their own right, Celebrities. Now, both the cats seem to always make their entrance in about every video..haha, with Laura's knowledge or not.

How about tips and tricks for us scrawny, short gals over 50 who don't want to greet our hubbies at the end of every day with a punch list of garden chores. I'm retired but hubby is not. Will the auger rotate me or will it work easily in clay? How much kick power do I need for that foot weeder?

    Bought a new home to accommodate by mother who is experiencing dementia from being isolated during pandemic. Your videos are a life saver for my sanity. I had lost my joy for gardening but watching your videos have given me new inspiration. My neighbors tells my yard looks like a botanical garden. That Hose would be amazing Thanks Laura.

    My grandad always wore long sleeve shirts and pants, Dickey brand I believe. Always! And he had the most beautiful and large garden all year, every year. Oh, and the hat. My oldest brother got the hat when he died. It is cooler with a button down shirt. He told me when you sweat, and the breeze comes, then it cools you off. Bless his heart. What a fine man. Thanks for that memory. You and Aaron are such blessings. I would not even read those challenging comments about what you or anyone wears or does. Like Aaron said, you do you. And God bless you both. 👏🏻💕👏🏻

    I also wanted to say, since you asked, that my favorite videos are the re-cap videos, videos where you're goofing off w/your Mom and doing fun stuff like antiquing or making cocktails, and the everyday videos where you show what projects you are doing or how everything is progressing. I just love your channel, and I am so happy for you that you are doing so well!

    I love and so appreciate all of the videos that are exclusively about landscape gardening. I also like the newer style of “chore landscape maintenance” with the audio track over. You really provide Garden Answer(s) and with more scale than most of us can manage. I would love to see more landscape work from inexpensive sources: seeds, propagation, and 2” or 4” pots grown into an entire bed over time. Thank you!

    35:37 as one of the lucky Australians that Retractable Hoses are the "norm" for, the best advice I can give for extending the life of your retractable hose is to make sure you empty it of water before you retract it. I turn off the faucet and as I walk it back in as it's retracting I have the trigger on to empty out any excess water.
    Also I use one around my raised veggie beds, I just pull it out fully down the middle of all my beds and then move between them watering and when I'm done I go back to the long position to reel it back in (I hope that make sense).

    One issue I encountered with my new Hoselink this Spring was a bird was attempting to make a nest inside the plastic cover! Luckily, I caught it after the first day and I have small hands so was able to remove all the sticks they moved inside. I had to throw a shopping bag over the cover to block the opening for the next couple of weeks to make sure no one else decided to move in and jam up the hose. LOL I never would have thought this might be an issues, but I guess every Spring I will need to keep an eye out. haha

    Dear Laura and Aaron, it is such a pleasure to watch your excitement during this time (Hartley installation). I have never felt more as though I was living ‘vicariously’ through someone else. This is ‘your moment’. You work hard, you inspire others, and you have made a very positive impact within the gardening community. Please continue to savour every moment and share your joy with us. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. I often drink my morning coffee, still in my pyjamas while watching (and loving) your videos. That is, watching you work your butt off while I sip coffee in my pyjamas, wishing I had your energy and and your drive. I would not dare to criticize you, and neither should anyone else. Team Garden Answer provides consistently amazing content each and every post. You have earned every piece of that beautiful greenhouse and I for one am looking forward to seeing it featured in future videos. I am over the moon happy that you are realizing a dream and would absolutely bring in a Christmas tree to see how it would look in there, even if it is July!!!

You have opened more ways to plant for me and I’m sure others. So, thank you. For those that didn’t care for it, brush it off. Not everyone is going to like everything about gardening, like I despise weeding. But, I’m sure glad you shown products it use to combat these nasty buggers. Hats off to you guys, keep on doing you.
