    I don’t know about anybody else but I love the high tunnels out there by the cut flower fields, it makes it look farm like. I think that a small one like the one you have by the garage with the shingle front would look beautiful out there. I loved this weeks chores series, I find series so informative.

    Great idea for Aaron to do a garage/tool organizing video. Yes, Aaron the products for storage are important, but more important is what tools or garage stuff you use more and where to put them. Please do one. I’m going to tackle my garage starting next month so the weather will be cooler in Texas. Right now it looks like “Sanford and Sons”!!! Funny old TV comedy for you young people. I can’t wait Aaron. Thanks so much. God bless. 👏🏻💕👏🏻

    Just a thought but maybe you could dedicate a video on your regular channel talking about how you and Aaron manage your channels, your business and social media. Maybe explain that you have a highlight channel for those that don’t watch every video and might not realize some of the things that you do randomly bring up and don’t get some of the insights we get from your highlights channel Q&As. Love both of your channels and I’m one that never misses a video.

    @vikkielaf Před 2 lety +5

    Y’all are amazing. I love every you do and how gracious and positive you both are.
    Laura I 💯 % agree with you not answering questions directly. It’s so hard to do especially since you have people from all over the world. Every location is different. Zones are not equal. Zone 8 in Louisiana is not the same as zone 8 in Washington.
    You I get little rain where as I get on average 58 inches of rain annually.
    But mostly Because a lot of people just don’t give enough information when asking a question. I cannot begin to fathom how long it would take you to answer even the smallest portion of the questions that are asked of you.
    I think the best answer is the one you give frequently as someone from your local garden centers.
    I also encourage each to find gardeners in their areas, the local extension office, garden clubs and master gardeners in their area. Drive around and look at landscapes that are lush and beautiful. Pay attention to what seems to grow best in your area. We don’t have local nurseries in my area so when I started gardening at my own home I went to garden club symposiums. Nurserymen, read books, bought every gardening magazine I could find. I went to my county agents office and picked up numerous brochures. When I drove around to neighborhoods and even knocked on a few doors and asked if I could take some pictures of plants in their garden. Most gardeners love to share their knowledge. I stuck up many long lasting friendships that way.

    We had 20 cubic yards of aged cow manure delivered. My husband and I spread this “black gold” over all beds as “compost”. This worked out very well! It kept down the weeds and then (after a year) it decomposed and enriched our soil!!
    Win! Win! We will be doing this again!!
