- Paul shows what he grows in his Back to Eden garden in the winter. Carrots, beats, arugula, kale, onions, cilantro and lettuce. He also talks a lot about how and when to save kale seeds.

So very, very thankful you'd take the time to go out there and do all this filming! I have watched hours of your footage (some videos more than once) and have been converting huge sections of my yard, following Paul's advice - and yours!
At this point, I'm thinking of just going to your channel, starting at the beginning and going all the way through - including reading through these extremely insightful comments. It's absolutely worth the time!
Although its summer in New Zealand, I'm already planning my winter garden. Thanks for the informational vids L2Survive.
hello, please could you direct me to any video regarding moles or digging rodents in Paul's garden?? Is he doing something to get rid of them?
The slugs are getting my kale :( I even have a mini green house cover over them because I thought it was cabbage flys n those bugs that look like flattened out lady bugs! Fixed that prob but now the slugs moved in. Getting some beer today to try that! I also still have broccoli growing! Yay! :) I put everything to bed for the winter except for the broccoli kale and Swiss chard yesterday and started some new beds back to eden style. :-)
Beautiful! So jealous that you lived close by. God bless
Thx guys.
Paul giggled; cute...
I often wonder how long Paul could go without ever entering a grocery store, years I imagine. That's my goal, to garden like Paul to see if I can go years without shopping for groceries! Thanks for your knowledge Paul, you are awesome.
Did you ever get a video of Paul saving and putting up seeds?
Nope and, I probably never will. I live too far away from him now to catch that one film.
LOVE This. Thanks so much for asking the question we want answers to. I have Clear plastic domes over my winter veggies in zone 7A Maryland. Now I'm wondering if it is necessary. On really nice days I take them off for direct sun to get to plants, but maybe I don't need them at all.
I would uncover part of your garden and see what happens.
So does he just let the seeds fall on top of the wood chips and he doesnt have to plantbor harvest any? They just work their way down? Did i get that right?
Kale flowers taste like Broccoli because, Kale and broccoli are the exact same species "Brassica oleracea", just different cultivars of that species, same with Cabbage, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, kohlrabi and collard greens.
Paul has mentioned this about broccoli a few times in my videos. I did not know that about cauliflower though. I love them both.
Hi there, How cold does it get at Paul's place. When it freezes it does not ruin his plants? I live in Oklahoma we get very hard freezes, snows, ice and such. Have wondered how a winter garden would work where I live.
Thanks Bev
We usually hit the 20's and a couple of times a year is will get into the teens. Paul's winter garden grows all winter no matter the weather.
hi. I live in southeast Texas. is it too late to start my winter garden? I want to say no because our fall just sorta started here, we are all averaging low 80s and upper 70s. could I plant potatoes, carrots and greens right now? thanks!
I'm jealous! my garden is shutdown zone 5 with snow today and Paul still has fresh kale, arugula, carrots and what else???
commonly called Tuscan kale
oops, that was meant for the person below
Beats, onions, cilantro and lettuce are some of the things he grows.
Great video, as usual. In the previous video, Paul mentions that he deals with things like powdery mildew through pruning and letting air through the branches. But what about fungal diseases spread through wood and that affect the bark?
Fungus is usually caused by watering the leaves of the plants. Since Paul does not water, he really doesn't have issues with that.
So can I plant kale right now (nov 25) my ground is frozen but my wood chips are not. If I drop seed is it possible I could see some in jan or feb
Great video again
I don't think that your kale will grow if you plant it now. If it was planted on the 1st of September, it would have grown well if you were in our area. If you plant it now, I would think it would just stay dormant until spring.
L2Survive do you just lay seeds over frozen ground and cover with wood chips? Im hazy on exactly what/when/why to drop the seeds.
Im much more interested in growing them like a perrenial than harvesting seeds as i dont know how much room I can devote in my shed to drying.
Yikes! CZcams just showed a Roundup ad before your video came on. Do you have a way of blocking that?
I don't think I can choose who advertises but, if they want to spend their money to put ads on videos that explain why round up sucks, I'll take it.
what type of kale is this?
Tuscan kale
Paul grows Lacinato Kale (also known as Dinosaur) and Russian Kale I believe.
L2Survive yes, you are correct, I think the other common name is Tuscan. I grow it too here in Port Angeles, but mine aren't as nice as Paul's....yet! ;)
what gardening zone is Paul?
DEVILDOG6781
I assumed so. are you an Alex gray fan or a TOOL fan devildog?
DEVILDOG6781 Cool, me too :)
Obviously it is not a 'winter' garden, as they are still wearing T-shirt...
+Vincent Chen I only wear short sleeve shirts all year even when there is snow on the ground. That being said, Paul said in the video that is was all planted in the beginning of September and the video was published in late November. This is the food that Paul will eat throughout the winter.
