Happy to be back and marking myself safe from the NC weather 😂
I enjoyed your weather report, 😂. Glad that you are safe!
NC gardener here. Gotta ❤our crazy weather! Will look forward to your report 🌱
Hi Meg. Do you have a video or link for your greenhouse?
Loved that part 😂
If this is the format you were mentioning in your earlier video.....keep them coming! Outstanding! I love the variety of experts and their knowledge! Still love you Kevin❤.
I'm hoping the Midwest will be represented in future videos since it's still too early to start most seeds, even indoors, in my Zone 5B.
Really enjoyed this format when you've done it in the past and love seeing the seed packets of the plants that are being sown.
Yeah, we have the MI Gardner but he is not as Epic.
Another vote for Upper Midwest representation.
This!! I am also a zone 5 and Im stressing about when to start indoors right now. Midwest has a lot of unusual weather, I wish we could get some tips
@@SnifflehogSame. Midwest zone 6b here. One week there’s snow and ice on the ground. The next it’s 65 degrees. Then a tornado takes out your house. 😅
Joining in on the Midwestern Wait here 😂. 6a/b (literally on the line, haha) and I keep seeing videos of people starting seeds and it makes me itchy/paranoid, but I know it's just too early for here yet (plus I don't have a grow light and they always end up leggy even in my southern window!)
would sure love to see somebody in zone 5 on Epic Gardening
I love this format with different gardeners from different zones. Especially a gardener from Seattle, because that's the closest place to me. ❤🎉
I wish they had some colder zones though. They need a Midwestern or Canadian epic gardener. I love this channel, but nothing ever applies to me.
Thanks for including a variety of people, places, and varieties! Love all the sowing/growing hints too ❤️
I had ground cherries pop up on their own around my garden. I’ve never even had those seeds. I guess they grow wild around here! That was cool to find! They did die in our recent freeze but I managed to salvage one for seeds. I wasn’t sure what they were at first but used a plant identification app to find out. Such cute little yellow cherry inside a husk. What a find! 🤷🏻♀️👍🏻
I agree with Ana, the Anise Hyssop hits different in tea! I normally hate the taste of licorice, but it works really well in tea.
LOVE THE SHAKER IDEA! THANKS MEG!
You’re so welcome! ❤
You didn't get flash-flooded! My sister lives in Encinitas - the orange blob went over her house and she's OK - staying cozy inside today. Hope you are, too!
Dang SD is getting smacked by these storms. Tomorrow is suppose to be worse.
Sorry not tomorrow, but the storm on Sunday/monday.
Three dots to rt of ur comment. One will say 'edit' n u can change/correct typos, etc. Took me 4ever to see that.@@fabicorona13
Orange blob? Djt?
If you watch the precipitation forecasts when a storm moves over land they color the intensity in different shades - greens are light showers, yellow is steady rain and orange or red is a downpour. Today's storm had an orange blob that was shown heading in between Del Mar and Oceanside. @@BP-bx6si
I love seeing all the different gardeners! If possible, can you try to add people from colder zones? Things change a lot for zones 4-6 lol
Love hearing from the different zones! Thanks for thinking about us up in the PNW :D
Love these new collaboration videos. I learned some great tips. I love the carrot and radish tip of planting them together. I am going to try that this year.
Zone 8b, south alabama. I just put in carrots today, yesterday I seeded Arugula outside. My beans, peppers and spring lettuces are in starters.
I’m also in zone 8b in South Carolina. I’m waiting for my seed trays to be delivered! I can’t wait to start my garden here at my new home!
Happy hello from zone 7A! Absolutely love getting my tomatoes and peppers started at this time, started my strawberries two weeks ago!!
I'm also in 7a and just started sprouting my tomatoes and peppers as well!! Happy growing!
Sooooo many seeds to start...and don't forget to toss some wild flower seeds in the garden!!!
Native wildflowers in particular!
I love watching how people from warm regions take care of seedlings while I have so much snow outside my window that the sun is not visible- snowdrifts up to the second floor. :D I will definitely use these tips in a couple of months. :)
I love this format dude !!!! This was amazing ! I loved every second of it !!
Very informative, thank you! This year I will be growing "Thai Basil". It is served in the vietnamese Pho dish and tastes absolutely out of this world.
Thai basil pesto pasta is amazing!
I skipped herbs to focus on bigger vegetables but this fall and winter I’ve been playing around with tons more herbs and finding a real love for their fast growing nature, taste, smell, propagation via cuttings. Lots of fun to be had with the basil and mint.
Fuiyou
Bro knows what he’s doing
Echinacea Purple Coneflower is one of my fav to grow and they are perennial in my zone 9B FL and they bloom almost year round.
I wish they bloomed year round here - that would be amazing!!!
9a South Central Texas here and just planted arugula and spinach outside and several varieties of pepper, thyme, basil, chocolate mint, spearmint, and a bunch of other seeds inside. March can’t come soon enough!! Love the tips for medicinal herbs since most of my deck garden will be for teas and medicines.
Love these gals! How about some winter sowing for zone 5b/6a? The jug method works well for anise hyssop and coneflower that was mentioned. :)
Yes! I’m 5a
I stuck those types of seeds in the fridge to cold stratify this time around, but I have been toying with the idea of WS. I moved to this house at the end of fall, so my yard wasn’t prepped for winter gardening. I’m hoping I can still get my garden patch prepped early enough for peas and lettuce etc!
A great video! Love seeing everyone and learning the info.
I like that radish/ carrot seed shaker method ! Nice well-rounded knowledge. Fun
Love seeing all the new faces! Can't believe it's seed starting time of year again already!!!
Love this style of video!! Different Zones…..seeds…..tips, it’s has it all!! ❤
I'm really happy to see all the new creators on the channel. I'm so glad Megan has joined the channel. Her growing area is pretty similar to mine except they get cooler temps in the winter. It gets hot and humid in my area and summer can be brutal to things we like to grow in the summer like tomatoes. The early jalapenos are one of my garden staples. They always produce well and usually outperform all the other pepper varieties. I had a tomato hornworm strip half of one of my plants before I found it. That one still bounced back and I got two harvests off it.
Love this new format! It can't replace Kevin and Jaque in the garden, but it's fabulous!
I'm with you on peppers. I got into them hard last year with Jacques and planted them in groupings with very close spacing. Huge Success. Then I wintered over a few (10). Now my pepper agenda is really niche. I'll start one round in February and another in March. Its definitely in my top 5 for edibles.
Peppers are so much fun to grow! I grew Yum Yums (tiny sweet peppers) last season and they were so prolific! I am just about through the 3 gallons I froze, not counting what I added to canned sauces etc.
15:36 Holy Basil is so awesome!
I love it too! Helps me sleep. I’m going to try to grow it again.
I started buying Botanical Interest seeds a few years ago from my local hardware store. I have found them to be the most successful.
Meg is my absolute FAV 🥰 her recipes are delish!
So glad you love them!! ❤
Flawless work, Kevin! Epic Garden has become more EPIC-ER!!!!!!!!!
Super timely video, and I appreciate the gardeners from different zones.
Wow! I loved this video, gardeners from different places with their favorite vegetables/herbs. I am in 7A zone in Georgia. I can't wait to starts my seedlings. I have always started late and didn't enjoy the full crops. I think I will try to start now. Thank you all. Happy gardening.
Interesting to see the variety grown in different zones. I'm in zone 4a. Tomatoes are my favourite to grow. This year I'd like to give those ground cherries a try!
Outstanding video! I love that different zones were represented. Thanks everyone!
Im only a couple mins in but great recommendation on the ground cherries. I’ve been growing them for years just so i have a snack while I’m picking weeds😂
I’m waiting for those royal purple seed starting trays to become available 💜 also love the video guys! Great job!
Yes, i love it!!!! You have Meg on💚
Yay PNW 8b!!!! Anise hyssop is always on the menu here in PDX where we are working on a wildflower pollinator garden.
Wow that's so interesting mixing radishes and carrots! I'm gonna try it 👍
I just had a freak warm day in Michigan, it got up to 48F yesterday, and I got into the garden 20 minutes before it started getting dark. I have cilantro self seeding already, I had to dig it out and bring it in before we get another snow storm lol.
I’m going to try the tip of growing radishes and carrots mixed together! I even already have the Easter egg blend and the shin kuroda in my seed collection 😋
Good content today!
I love the Anise Hyssop!
I'm so jealous outside cut flowers, lisianthus. I can't start anything yet. Enjoy sowing all of you in warm climates. Although when your excitement slows us up north, we will be getting excited, lol
I am learning lessons from my garden journal this season. When everyone posts its time i am challenging myself by holding onto my willpower to wait. I made that mistake several years in a row ended up trees. I am holding back my urge to get growing. In the end know saving extra effort and energy.
You should try doing a cold frame
@@bertarnoldo5199 yeah I did purchase winter covers for early spring planting. Below 0F average night temperatures nothing much makes it until late March. It's ok will get going just watching and enjoying others while planning. I am doing some winter sowing to help the urge. 😉
Mid Atlantic 8a representation!
I'm loving it. Can't wait to go subscribe to some more chaos gardening from my neck of the woods.
Very cool! Love this from different areas. ❤
My favorite eggplant variety is the Asian long eggplant. The plants are very productive, the eggplants are easier to cook evenly due to their elongated shape, and they can still be eaten after the seeds on the inside have matured. Although my attempt to overwinter the plants failed, I managed to save thousands of seeds from last year, from just 3-4 eggplants.
Hard agree with the peppers, I'm growing 16 varieties of peppers this season, I absolutely can't wait to eat all of them.
Motivated and ready to plant!! Thanks 🙏🏻 💙💚🎉🙌🏻
Yes! Thank you for 8b content with Ana! More 8b content please!
I love ground cherries!! I always eat them too. And yes, the jam is incredible.
I’m going to try these!
Love hearing from gardeners from all over with their favorites 🎉❤
I _just_ used my cilantro the other day to make some cilantro lime rice. I'm in 6b and it self-seeded from last year's and has been chilling (literally!) the entire winter. It's been under several inches of snow and while it was in the single digits outside for a week, and now everything's melted off and it's happily doing its thing in the (sort of) warmer weather.
Excellent Kevin! Love this format.
Just came upon this vid.
Great info!
Thank you.
I'm gon start some seeds 😁
I've got everything
Ah, the trick to growing Cilantro! Thank you!💚💚💚💚💚💚
Dude ground cherries were my favorite to forage as a kid!
Thank you for sharing, educating, and inspiring.
OK, I loved this video. It's really nice to see different zones represented. So many chanels only talk about what they are growing and don't even give the growing zones of the things they are growing. Great idea.
Different zones?? All I saw was several zone 8's. Would love to see more on the colder zones like 3&4. Other than that, it was a good video!
Agreed, although they're from different places everyone was a Zone 8!
Thanks from Deland Florida…zone 9b. Great clips of all the amazing veggies I can start right now. My seed order is ready to go out now. Thanks again for these tips❤
i absolutely luv this! I'm so excited for the growing season.. Ok off to re-watch
Thank you for this wonderful list. I love to see other people sharing about gardening, much respect. :))
Thank you Eric!
Love the new format and the additions to the team!!
😢 wish you had someone from canada too!! Or somewhere with long winters
I adore this channel. So nice to see people who love gardening as much as I do and know their stuff!!
What a fantastic little video💕💕💕💕💕
LOVE this video format! Just need to add an Epic gardener from Zone 7/ east coast USA. Thanks to all for the useful, passionate content! Claudia
Love this format, keep them coming!
Thank you for highlighting native plants to the US. 🥰
Anna is an absolute gem!! No idea where she's been hiding but how does she not have her own channel!? Love her stuff!
Ana needs to not say the word dirt… it’s soil not dirt lol
@@jasonmouzes1284 what?
Love the format.
Wow I love this format with all these different people!!!!
Serious greenhouse envy.
Hola, I am located in East Tennessee and following your recommendations, I will keep y’all posted
We always used to grow Cherokee Purples in our trucker patch when I was growing up. They always produced so much and were overall just great plants to grow.
I love the collabs with everyone, especially the live tornado footage from Meg! 🤣
Woah! Love Amy…. This is what I am talking about. International knowledge on gardening. ❤
I would to love see Meg's ground cherry plants after they are at home in their grow bags! For me, ground cherries are a special part of my history as generations of my ancestors tended a plot that was over 100 years old, the plants returning year after year by reseeding themselves. Sadly, that special plot was lost when the property was sold to development....fast forward to present day - I am starting ground cherry seeds to also transplant to grow bags....so I would love to see an updates on Megs ground cherry plants as they grow! 😊
It's really crazy. I've seen these galore here in gardens just as an ornamental plant. Took some time to realize they are actually edible
I would love to get the recipe for that ground cherry upside down cake!
It’s over on my insta ❤
@@meggrowsplantsgirlllll that sounded SOOOO GOOD!!!
Love the energy of your new format!
Fantastic episode!
Got you’re seed catalog and it looks great!
Thank you for uk❤
Great Format 👏🏼 👏🏾👏🏽
hi kevin and crew 🤗
im in your area and my raised beds & containers are oversaturated from thursday's rain ... and there's still more to come on/off into next week.
great time to plan my starts and direct sows - when the soil dries out a bit. thanks for more ideas.
i get botanical interests seeds from armstrong and already see a few packs i may pick up. tfs
I really like the new format , it makes the videos more entertaining and seems more concise. Keep up the good work
Kevin, I love your new format! Really, really love it! I thought I would only connect with Jacques, since I know him so well from all your previous videos, but all the ladies did a fantastic job presenting, too. I learned so much from this video that I want to implement. It’s also got to be good for botanical interests sales.😊 I hope you will do more videos like this. I have one question… Where does one get seeds for that beautiful Thai basil that I always see growing in your garden? God bless! 🪴🌻🌻
I left my eggplant in the ground and cut it back, over the winter here in So California. One never looked dormant, and just flourished. I am hoping to have eggplant earlier this year. I dug out and repotted some of my peppers, but kept them close to their original location. They are already blossoming. This time, I am going to repot them in pots rather than in my raised beds, prime real-estate,
I planted my jalapeños last year and it was such a success. Those same jalapeño plants have now started to produce peppers again this season. I am ecstatic about this as a beginner gardener, on my 3rd garden 🪴 wooo hoo 😅
The season is almost here. ❤
Brilliant!!!
Great advice.
As an amateur I learned alot from this video. Thank you
Very informative video!
Congratulations on getting the Epic Gardening products supplied through Indoor Farmer in Canada! I've been lusting after your trays for ages, and finally they're attainable in Canada at reasonable costs!
i like your idea ...many plants can growth there...😍👍
