Alright the people have spoken! An update will be included in the garden tour that I will put up next week!
@@jacquesinthegarden, Thank you!
thank you
Please update it.
@@jacquesinthegarden Democracy in action, y'all!!! 🗳☑
"If you guys wanna see an update on that" IF he says! We would watch you grow hair. Of course we want the updates! Just make the video garden boy! 😋
Haha it shall be done!
I love this comment 😂
Garden boy haha
Quite apt
I’ve only discovered this channel, been watching religiously since.
Would love to see an update on the progress of the bed flip.
yes to an update on the chop and drop bed!
Definitely would like an update on the bed flip.
Jacques my good man, what you said about the manual work, getting exercise and feeling connected to the soil really resonates with me, I feel this is an important part of this lifestyle! Definitely would be interested in a follow up on the chop and drop progress! cheers
Agree!! It's so invigorating, isn't it!
I just don't understand the desire to take the work out of it, obviously if you aren't physically able to I get that but otherwise to me it's a pleasure and a great way to connect. 🙌
Really would love an update on how the single planted pepper does vs the double!
Last year I didn't thin my peppers, so some of them had a friend they went into the same hole with. They were as healthy and productive as the singles but also helped hold each other up. I saw no negative effect so this year I have let them keep their friend again.
ALWAYS interested in your updates...I've learned SO much from you guys
I would definitely love an update on the chop and drop bed 🤗
Your flowers are looking beautiful! And I always love to see an update on a good garden project!
That's such a great point about enjoying the physicality of gardening! Sometimes working smarter IS working harder! 👍
Thanks for taking us along today! I'll be able to plant tomatoes and peppers in a week or so. Exciting!
what zone are you?
I would absolutely like to see an update!! Just wanted to add that I love the way you garden. I feel like we have a similar gardening techniques… mind you, I have nowhere near the garden you do (also I’m from Ny) … but the garden I do have I feel like I use a lot of the same techniques and I have picked up quite a few good ones from you!! One of the many reasons I love watching your videos! 🫶🏽💚
Love to hear it! Gardening in NY is definitely a different beast!
Man do I know it!
Please do an update, I’m very curious about how the burlap does! Your garden is so beautiful and inspiring. ✨🌱
Part of what makes your channel attractive, Jacques, is that you are real. You don’t try to make everything look perfect. So when you say that you’re willing to do a chop and drop for us to see later, we all say, yes! Of course! It’s really quite comforting to hear you say as you’re doing something in the garden, “this took a lot longer than I thought it was going to take.” That’s where we all live! Those are the kinds of things that help us connect to you and always want to see your videos. God bless your farm and your family! 💚💚
Updates are great. You know Jacques I appreciate you sharing your experiences in the garden.
Definitely want the update! And cooking suggestions when the peppers produce!
Definitely interested in an update. Including an update of the pepper planting. It's interesting that you're finding your peppers do better when closer together, and even tried putting two together.
i love your comment about why you dont use a machine.....to be more connected to the process is a major part of home gardening and i think that the people who look at what is efficient miss this point. I have heard and agree that efficiency is the bane of resilience which is again one of the big reasons for a home garden. This chop drop and cover method is similar to one i have seen by a fella who uses it to reclaim depleted gardens in his area of Japan
It's something that blew my mind! So many people commented saying I was wasting my time and that it looked like a lot of work. But I am choosing to do the work and I enjoy it so much more than listening to a lawn mower
I vote for an update. Love what you're doing especially showing the details on how you do it. Great stuff!
I loved the short on the basket you made for your mom on Mother’s Day. It was wonderful, best gift ever!
She definitely appreciated it!
Yes please do an update. New gardener here. Learning all I can.
I just started my compost pile today 💪🌱 I turned over A LOT of grass to build my garden beds, and insted of leting all that grass and clover go to waste, I made a lasagna of grass, wood chips and dead leaves from last fall. I did my best to calculate de C/N ratio 🤞 let's hope for the best!
That's a great use! Should be a healthy bed when it's ready
Would love to see an update. I enjoy seeing the changes you make and that you explain why you choose to do it that way.
I love updates where can see how things develop :)
chopping and dropping cover crops has been on my mind this week. perfect timing!
I’m with you! Yes to gardening=exercise ❤ and yes to update
Update is included in my latest garden tour video!
Your garden is looking great. You inspire me to just get out there in the garden, experiment, and have fun.
Would love to see an update on the bed flip!
I live in Minnesota. My version of the chop and drop is similar but it happens overwinter. I chop the garden, Mulch with straw, and let it sit over winter. When everything thaws I have a nice organic layer on my garden :D
Sometimes I wish I had some amount of freeze but I honestly don't think I could handle it 🥶
@Jacques in the Garden its nice. As much as i envy ppl who can grow year round there's something nice about getting to do a reset every year
Always want to see updates. I love the longer videos. 🌱
Update is included in my latest garden tour video!
I absolutely want to see how this bed looks in a week! Thanks!
Go go gadget worms!! Update please 😊. Im growing the lemon spice too.
I love that your channel is still on the smaller side; I made a comment this passed week and you actually replied. I have enjoyed watching you and your garden grow over the last two years I’ve been following you. Your garden style is a little wild while your personality is more down to earth and it makes for great viewing. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I try to keep up! I am glad you are enjoying it 🙌
This was great! I really hope to see an update on the chop and drop bed!
My grandmother puts 2 peppers every 30-35cm for 50+ years. This way the support each other and you have more harvest. You should call your relatives in Bulgaria for some advices 😊
That is great to hear, I have to go back now as a gardener and see how people are doing things over there! The best produce I ever ate was produce I had whenever I visited Bulgaria.
I tied my cucumbers the same way and its super easy. Such a easy DIY trellis. Yes, we would love the update. I love the turquoise color greenstalk.
It's a wonderful system for sure! Update is included in my latest garden tour video!
please do an update love all of your content.
Definitely do an update. I just started getting into making my own compost and I love to see the results of others!
I definitely want an update!
Update please! Love your process! Thank you so much for sharing 😊
Hi Jacques, thanks for the informative video, always love your content and style. Didn’t realize I wasn’t subscribed on CZcams but I fixed that! Happy gardening
(cathy brock) Yes, definitely would like an update on the bed flip and the garden as a whole.
I have decided to grow as many of my peppers as I can in 5 gallon buckets. They often last more than one year here (NE FL)(esp hot ones) and the bucket is the perfect size for their roots. I have orange jalapenos that I grew from seed in buckets that have 15 peppers on them right now. I love that I can move them around as I need the space or the lighting changes, and don't have to pull them up to make space for something when they're not dead yet.
I also find that 5 gallons seem to be the ideal container size for peppers!
I'd love to see an update :)
Please an update, on the chop and drop bed. Garden is looking amazing, I'm growing a pollinator patch, because yours looks so good😊
My eggplant roots were so tough to get out of the ground after 2/years! Thanks for all your tips on chopping and dropping!
Yes please to update. I miss your end to end process videos!
Yes, I would love to see your update!
Yes! Update!
Definitely give us that update
Would love to see *all the updates! I actually just separated two peppers I had in a single cell. I kept them together when I planted too. They were a yellow green compared to my other peppers from the same "batch" and so I just think they needed room to grow
Yeah that makes sense, I am curious to see how the two in 1 does!
Yes, we need an update on the bed flip...and the peppers. I am doing the same with peppers and I am curious to see how well they do. I did 3 cayenne 🌶 in a root pouch last year and they did amazingly better than the single planted one
Yes, please update.
Just a side note.... A lot of gardens can be quite stunning to visit, but your garden is one in which a person would like to linger.
Friends usually linger as I make them smell things and sample out of the garden, most people leave with a potted plant or cutting as well :)
Love your method of instruction! Thanks!
Lovely I am excited to see how it works over time 😊
looking forward to the update
Gorgeous garden
yes would love an update on the bed flip!
Great video. Would love to see a update 🌱🌿👍

Looking forward to the update!
Yes, please update! & thank you🌱
Would love an update on your progress.❤
Yes interested in an update
Yes, please!❤
Thanks for the Chop and Drop/ lasagna bed refresh, yes on an update!! I'm in Coffee (and wine) country in the PNW, and great reminder on getting coffee bags!
I joined an Edible Landscaping project this spring, and we have 26 beds (most big grape boxes that are 4x4', and some round metal) along A[pine Avenue, in the old granery district. I'm tending a Tea Garden, with Tea camellia and some herbs in one of the squares. We had a weeding /compost day, where each bed got several inches of rich compost from the founder, Ramsey McPhillips, which included bio-char. Several weeks later we hosted a Garden Faire on the Avenue, and gave away over 3000 seedlings - mostly edibles plus some flowers! Ramsey brought bags of his compost to give away - tucked into coffee bags!
I also enjoy the physicality and connection with the natural world inherent in gardening - and miss it when my meals don't have something from my garden or locally grown! A friend gave me a start of a favorite salad herb, Nepetella, (Clinopodium nepeta) which has a 'minty/oregano' flavor, and is one of the fresh herbs I love picking just before adding. My youngest grandson loves purslane, and I was happy to show him one that came as a tag-along in some Roselle I got last weekend.
Ah, gardens
Love to hear all of this and the repurposing of material around you. Nepetella is one I have been wanting to try and I actually got seeds for it, excited to try it soon!
Your garden is just like mine! I've also got fava beans all over the place and i chop and drop them too! And then my zuchini is like the same exact size as yours.
🙌
Very nice technique.
Yes please do an update. Great video. Informative
Yes. I’d love to see your updates
Update is included in my latest garden tour video!
I am with you 100%, I like to work in the garden, and I need the exercise, walking a chihuahua only gets you so far.
Yes, update please ❤
Your flowers are absolutely beautiful!!! I'm being pretty basic with my interplanted flowers this year, just some Marigold, Zinnia, and Nasturtium. Currently my peppers are being attacked by insects, but every time they eat a couple of leaves the plants seem to push more out! I also have flowers on a couple of them as of last week!
Very interested in update. Thx Jaques
Spring tour video and how I get dense flowers video both have updates!
Would love to see the cabbage ferment 😊 Love your style... have learned so much.
I love seeing updates ❤
Update is included in my latest garden tour video!
Yes please on the update
Yes please on an update on the new bed.
Yes please show the process of the decomposition of the garden bed.
Will love an update on the bed, thanks
Update is included in my latest garden tour video!
Definitely want an update!
I frequently put pepper plants that are in the same hole (usually two seeds got into the same cell and by the time I got them out, the roots had fused.) I never had a problem with it and always get good production. You should be just fine! Keep us posted on the peppers and the tomato!
YES! we NEED an update of that bed. please.
I'm growing those zucchini and they're amazing. I have had to do my own pollinating but it's actually fun 😊
I would reccomend soaking the chopped/dropped bed material with a soil inoculant. It helps those root nodes break down and become available 👍👍
Do you put on a bee costume when you’re pollinating?
I thought about it and settled on compost instead since it was easier for me haha
Yes to an update on the chop and drop/bed flip.
Definitely would really appreciate seeing the update in a couple weeks! Thank you
