Welcome to my vlog channel and thank you so much for watching! I've been wanting to make a raised bed and grow fruits and vegetables in my garden...and finally did it! A lot of our neighbors are farmers and they give us vegetables they grow all the time so I'm hoping I can give my fruits and vegetables back soon!
Looking forward to seeing your first harvest 😁Please make sure you get bird/animal safe netting!!
It is very sad seeing birds and other creatures getting tangled, hurt and killed by the wrong kinds of netting being used
Thank you for the video.
It's allways amazing to see, just how much effort goes into these projects.
I feel like a lazy person, my appartment doesn't get much sunlight and while I want to grow flowers and such, there isn't much that I can do here. 😭
It's just my opinion, but I think, just using the vegetables your neighbors give you, is already something you "give back". If I would grow more, than I can use and sell, I would be happy to know, that it's not going to waste. There is only so much you can use yourself after all. Seeing vegetable becoming bad, is rather sad. And knowing that the person I give those vegetables to, is a good cook, would make me rather proud.
And who knows, maybe they saw some of your videos and enjoyed the recipes you shared?😊
I can understand your view too, that you want to give something tangible back. Well, give it time, I'm sure it will come. (I really need to start to listen to my own advice... I'm rather impatient over something and need to wait too 🙃 I'm a lot less graceful about it, than you. I'm just glad, that noone seems angry about it)
The rised bed looks great. No wonder Haku likes it.
Well, I wish you a great harvest. 🥰
Lots of love from europe🤗
❤❤❤ I missed you all. Love you. Beautiful video and great building. Love Rachel laugh
I know the struggle of getting produce from neighbors and not knowing how to repay them, lol! I had a neighbor at my previous apartment who worked at a food bank and sometimes gave us fruits that the bank still had. I once turned some plums she gave into a plum cobbler. I had never made a plum cobbler before, only a cherry cobbler, but the ones she gave us were so sour, I figured baking them was probably the best use for them. I gave her a large plate of it and hope she enjoyed it. It tasted better on day two and beyond, once it sat in the syrup and became sweeter.
You could always give back to your neighbours with your cooking! I would make chutney and jams from the chilli and fruit my neighbour gave me! A great way to build community 😁
You know life is good when Jun uploads a new video
Life good
So true, so relaxing
I know life is good when I see a comment like this.
😂
Man, Rachel and Jun have built such an idyllic life. I wish I could spend all day with adorable cats, making videos and doing random DIY projects that please me 🥺
what is stopping you from doing that? Like you could work at a animal shelter. make video with the cats there. plus there is always something that will need to be maintained.
They have day jobs, I'm sure, given the infrequency of their videos. This is probably just the side hustle. Still, seems like a very pleasant life and I'm happy for them 😊
@@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley I don't think so. I think they have enough subscribers in their channels combined, even with infrequent uploads, to make a living. Also, they're on the countryside now, so life is cheaper.
@@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley also, out of curiosity I checked. 600k on this one, 1M on Rachel&Jun's adventures 2.5M on Rachel&Jun and 5M on Jun's kitchen!!! Obviously RUclips is their only job! 😂
@@Hitogata I think their house is paid for, too! They got tons of sponsors so they could pay for the house so RUclips can totally support them even if they don't post frequently
That’s so nice that you’re thinking about giving back to your neighbours too! Your vlog channels are really nice and I hope the veggie garden goes well 🌱
Jun: "Alright lets go"
Haku: flops over
Quintessential cat behavior 😂
I've said it before, Jun and Rachel are the dream team; there's nothing they cannot do, and Jun, you and Rachel make it look effortless.
I hope you have a terrific harvest; how nice that you're slso thinking about giving back to your neighbours too!
Cheers from Southern Ontario 🇨🇦
Careful with planting paprika and peppers next to each other, they are cousins and when the pollinators come they may cross pollinate and the plants will hybridise
So you might get a spicy paprika and a less spicy chilly
Maybe this is what you mean, but that's only true if he plants the seeds from these plants' peppers. The plants that grow from those seeds could be hybrids, but the peppers produced this year will not be.
paprika is just a word used for peppers in the Balkan and some other European countries :) it is always so funny to me...cos, here we have- hot paprika, sweet paprika, bell paprika, chilly paprika
and so on :)
It won’t affect the fruit that year only if your seed saving
Jun could make an hour long video of literally anything cooking or planting related and I’d watch it
THIS!!!
His presentation is extremely calming. ❤
I've had the pink lemonade blueberries before, they don't taste lemonade-y per se, but they do have a sweet-tart flavor with a hint of lemon? They're really good! Hopefully your bush does well and you can try them for yourself 😄 Good to see the bed frame is Haku approved, too.
Jun is so innocent, “Rachel loves spice, so I’ll just buy the Trinidad scorpion, the literal spiciest thing on the planet” 😂 I love the raised bed! I really want to make something similar but cedar wood is so expensive in the US…I bet it’s much cheaper in Japan. So I have been working on a ground garden instead!
Like, is that what it seems like to people who can't handle spice? They think we're out here eating ghost peppers on a daily basis? LOL
Jun i watch a lot of RUclips and I've reached a point where a lot of the time I'm worried that I'll watch a video and not enjoy it because I'm not in the mood and it'll be a waste of a video. This has never happened with you and Rachel's videos. You guys never cease to lighten my mood even when I'm in a depressive state. I love you guys
Glad to see you and the kitties again❤
The garden bed came out really good, it's great you remembered the arbor to repurpose as a bird net, keep an eye on your blueberry bushes as some birds will try to eat the berries even before they ripen. One thing I learned about growing any sort of peppers is fruitflies love them and also citrus, since you have both planted in your garden you will probably have to spray to keep the fruitflies away (I've had to do that every summer, even the hottest peppers don't deter them).
In America we prune the bottoms of our pepper plants 12 inches up and pinch off the bottom leaves to improve pepper production as well prevent root diseases. The important distinction is to pinch the lower leaves off, and not snip them off as that will leave the capillaries of the leaf open and the plant will “bleed”. In any case, I hope this information is useful to you! Your garden looks incredible, and I got some ideas of my own from it for my future plans. Happy Gardening sir!
You know life is good when Jun uploads a new video. Glad to see you and the kitties again.
You can always bake your neighbours something! ❤
Thank you Jun (and Rachel too) these videos are so entertaining and informative and on a personal note really have motivated me to act on my own projects and getting to them. Typically a procrastinator, seeing the diligence and commitment to what you put your mind to is inspiring and gives me focus. I adore your beautiful cats and all the cool things you two come up with! ❤😊
I love that you built your beds! Just a suggestion for the future: Peat moss is a non-renewable resource and you could use multiple other materials like coconut coir, mulch/wood-based products, compost, pine needles, rice hulls, or leaf mold.
I have always loved having a big garden, one year I had over 40 tomato plants and half a dozen types of pepper/chili plants (about 12 of each) A one-acre garden is a lot so I ended up paying the neighborhood kids to help. Plus I gave their parents many bags of veggies and jars of canned salsa and canned tomatoes.
Jun and his golden hands never dissappointed 👏🏻
Wow, what are the chances? I was just thinking about making a raised bed when I got back home, and after many months, Jun comes out with a video! Thank you!
お疲れ様でした ！ Excelent. I love you both and cat s life. Thank you very much.
thank you for uploading videos, whether it is from this channel or the other ones, i've always enjoyed every single one of them. your and rachel's videos always makes my day brighter and better. once again, thank you so much.
Never clicked so fast on a notification 😂
Same!
Definitely need updates on how the garden grows !!! 💗🫐🌶🌿
Yes! Blueberries are native to the americas, and are common in the southern US! They're called 'Rabbit Eye' because the white to pink-ish berries can look like an eye with an iris, like a big rabbit's eyes. There's lots of different varieties, but these are some of those most common for producing big fruits. You may want to consider bird netting- as they're very popular with wildlife! Good luck with them!
this was so relaxing to watch 😊
パプリカ = red bell pepper (and ピーマン = green bell pepper). in english. paprika is the name of a spice powder made from dried red peppers.
I love Nagi's little rabbit kick at the beginning, when your scratched his ear. haha I've never seen a cat do that before! 😊❤️
Nicely done Jun. love it. Can't wait to see what you add to your garden next year.
3:17 Haku: *"I have waited for you since yesterday, human-!!"*
I needed this chill gardening video today. Thank you Jun! Love watching the garden progress. 🌱
The garden is amazing and if I had a yard it would inspire me to plant my own veggie garden! 💕
Proof that Haku really is a normal cat:
*-After a nice warm walk-*
Jun: Okay I'm getting hot, lets head inside!
Haku: *-immediately lays down-*
Jun: *-walks ahead a tiny bit and tried to ps ps ps-* Come on baby
Haku: *-begins purring and flops-*
Jun: *-resigns himself to the heat and begins giving pets-*
They are living real life Harvest Moon !!
I wish I can be as productive like Jun is when it comes to gardening but when I decide to do something the demon inside me says SLEEP GO TO BED!!!!
So I got a lawn with grass instead and some potted plants my mom and grandma brought to my house
Got a good laugh when Jun was mowing and the English captions said (Applause) hehehe
Beautiful Tree's. amazing video
I love it that you research for your projects. I was impressed by all the details, e.g. the PH.
People often said I overdo/overthink things - so I like that you also like the eye for detail.
btw. do you need to put a snake stop around the bed, or are snakes not a problem?
Haku best boi~
im looking forward to those pink lemonade ones! maybe u will be trying to do some kind of snack/dessert with them? :3
bros playing minecraft irl
Relaxing to watch
It's going to be so cool to see the progress! I hope everything grows nice and big and strong!
Just a word of warning: peppers cross-pollinate very easily. If you don't like spicy stuff, i'd have rachel taste the peppers that aren't supposed to be spicy first. My parents have had almost all of their dozen or so pepper plants come out in different degrees of spice because of the 2 or 3 chili plants they had out there.
Also, pine is a good mulch for blueberries. Pine is fairly acidic and as it breaks down over time it'll help maintain the pH. If you mix a bit of sulphur in with it, it'll make some of that acidity accessible to the plants more quickly.
These videos are so relaxing 😊
funfact planting hot peppers near plants of the same genus such as your bell pepper can cause them to cross breed meaning your bell peppers might end up really spicy
These videos are so soothing ☺️
Have you guys ever thought of like... making pickles with the daikon you get, then giving the farmer some pickles? That's sorta the similar vibe.
ブルーベリーの土壌は酸性なんですね！チュンチュン対策大変ですが頑張ってください🦜
Looks very good! I'm curious how fast they will grow 🪴!
These videos are so fun to watch!!
Get some spiked netting to put in bed to prevent cats using raised bed as bathroom
After seeing Haku hopping like that, the next project may need to be a catio for the boys and Miss Pichi
Babe, Jun's uploaded a video!!
That looks amazing Jun! Please give us an update as to how things grow! Highly recommend feeding those peppers ocean mix fertilizer once they start producing every 6 weeks or so. Also, since Rachel loves peppers, maybe dry them to make spices or ferment to make your own hot sauce? Super easy and delicious!
So exiting to se your diy house updates 💙
I'm really interested to see those pinkish blueberries grow
A notification for a video by Jun around 2 am? Say less, I'm watching it now.
How fun! I hope the blueberries and peppers grow well :D Maybe the frame is heavy enough / the winds aren't strong enough, but does it need to be secured to the ground in any way?
I've seen lots of people use the method of painting rocks the color of whatever fruit they've got planted (in their case it was strawberries) so that when the birds go down to try and eat them, they learn that they're not food, and so they left the real fruits alone. It could be worth trying out :)
every time you upload, it's pure wholesomeness and happiness.. these videos make me feel at peace in such a stressful world. thank you for your hard work!!
Love this. Can't wait to see how the blueberries turn out. Especially those unique pink ones. It was so fun to see your kitty out on his harness enjoying the yard safely. What great enrichment for them!
Oh hell yeah, I don't garden but I'll watch someone else do it 😊
Love the garden content :)
Man massive respect for the bird measures. Id probably try to throw together a scarecrow and call it a day lol
This type of videos are probably the most calming ones on the whole youtube, makes me feel nostalgic for my parent's garden. They grow all kinds of things and really put a lot of effort into it, it's a great hobby for them. Thank you for sharing this quality content with us, Jun! I wish you to have a good harvest this year💜
I hope the crows leave the garden alone. I remember Jun and Rachel saying the ones in their yard were really smart.
Bbg wake up jun posted
We used coconut husk mulch for our vegetable garden this year too. It's making such a difference in the moisture level of the soil. It's great
A Jun gardening video after I spent the weeked updating my own garden is the cherry on top of my weekend.
I hope you get to harvest them before the crows get to them 😆
3:23 - „Who‘s that Pokémon?“ 🎉
I’m gardening this year, so of course I’m interested in YT videos about it! Preparing beds is always more work than you thought, right?
Was about to go to bed, but the universe said ok but watch this first x)
Jun playing stardew in real life ahaha xD the weed mowing was so satisfying
I love your cats so much my only wish is to escape to the countryside in Japan with my girlfriend :D
Love this! Your videos always inspire me-I’m going to plant some things in our backyard now :D
Please let us know what the pink lemonade blueberries taste like when you harvest them :o I've never seen pink blueberries that weren't unripe haha
I have this kind of garden in my family back yard. Really nice for gardening!! I'm so happy for you Jun!!
9:35 Its alright jun, bell peppers are not spicy at all.
You did an awesome job! I have to net my blueberries soon. The birds got almost all of them last year. :(
7:00 this is bento box garden bed
That bed came out really nice. One thing I thought of though, is that you can also use the frame to grow some climbing vegetables like peas or runner beans, which would give you more variety for the same area
Jun, in a raised garden, you want the soil all the way to the top. The soil does settle a bit after awhile so you want to allow for that settling by initially bringing up the soil to the top. Also, look into no-dig gardening. By cultivating, you're bringing up weed seeds up into the raised bed.
the frame can also be used as a structure for your plants to have support from so you can get a larger yield and the plant will be healthier.. good job... love your content
That's super smart with the bricks underneath!!! And also the plastic inside to keep the wood fresh for longer
Amazing video! Where did you buy the corrugated plaster sheet for the side of the fence?
Can't wait to see the update, love this channel vech much
I started watching your videos a couple of years back. Glad to see you guys are doing well. Basically your videos inspired me to keep on trying on cooking, having my three crazy cats and try enjoy life more often. Thanks.
Oh it looks so cute! Are you making more with other fruits/vegetables? Grow your own stuff is so good, we got a bunch of bananas from our yard this weekend it's delicious
Thank you for another fun video! I'm pretty sure Rachel & Jun are living their best Harvest Moon life (now story of seasons). I just wanna know how you found a blue feather so early! 😄 But in all seriousness I am so impressed by how Handy you both are! I'm always excited to see what you both will make.
What a lovely project. Great job building it Jun. :)
Oh, and blueberries LOVE WELL DRAINING SOIL so you might have to keep an eye on how much water they get where you've put them. Ideal place for them is on the side of a hill, but second to that is a somewhat rocky place, and not having that around, little watering sessions many times over one big soak and they do well, they do love water, they just don't want it all at once like that too often.
I wonder when will they build a catio for the cats ?
They may never do that because of Poki's allergies to various dust and mites
Jun seems to be able to live on a deserted island or even Mars. 😲
the garden looks beautiful!! next... a catio for Haku?
I always love what they are showing us in videos: recipes, diy projects, home building and decorating. My husband and i are in the process of planning our own landed house. And i do included things like cat friendly house, big window for a lot of natural light, wooden interior and also lots of plants in the garden/yard.
So, thank you Jun and Rachel😊😊
Glad you remembered to guard the blueberries! A long time ago, I was driving past a blueberry farm and a bird pooped on my window. They must have eaten a lot of blueberries because the poop looked like a bloodsplat! Scared me 😂
the birds at 2:35 activated my Need to Bird ID since there was no label, but all i could really get from the call is that they're raptors. so i imported the sound to Merlin and they think it's a black kite; the soundbite was similar but i noticed it was from India, so i thought perhaps there is a subspecies in Japan with a different call accent. and yea!! black-eared black kite (Milvus migrans lineatus), and its soundbites are closer to the calls in the video!
It looks so cool! But planting hot and bell peppers side by side isn't really the best idea, since the tastes get mixed together eventually (it's because of the bees, as far as I know?..)
I would recommend avoiding peat moss as much as possible because the way they farm it is very irresponsible and not sustainable unless you know the specific brand is sustainable. I would recommend searching up how peat moss is farmed if you're curious
