    My son and I were standing in front of our garden watching this video. This was our first time planting together. We almost got it right. We are already making plans for our summer garden next year using your tips. Thank you for helping us.

    By far the BEST tutorial on companion planting I’ve read, seen or heard. Thanks for mentioning specific plant options and grouping them by function, I.e. sunflowers for vertical support, etc. Taking notes and showering gratitude!

    Hi, I'm in sub-tropical Louisiana and it is HOT and HUMID here. You are a wealth of info. I'm hopeful to get to sign up for your Patreon sight this weekend. Tks for all you do. I've transformed my whole front yard to an Edible Foodscape..... tons of work for an 80 yr older, which keeps me going and happy as a lark :)
    I just recorded all of your info a out Trap craps, which I learned that I should've planted the flowers much before my veggies. (It's all a learning process LOL ). I DO have marigolds, calendulas, and blue astors bounding in one bed. Been gardening since 5 yrs old w my Mom, who loved gardening. Feed our 4 children from gardening and canning veggies, and now experimenting to teach self-sustenance to needy families. Tks for all you do; you're a great help...... :):):)

    I have noticed that mint and holy basil are also good traps for aphids. Holy basil was also very effective in luring away fruit flies and its very attractive to pollinators. Thunbergia and blooming colius are solitary bee magnets. A flowering plant called Cardinal's gaurd grows really tall and produce seasonal flowers attractive to bees even in very shaded areas.
    One of our foliage creepers really took over an area we planted strawberries on, when were preoccupied by home remodeling. But soon after we took them off, the strawberries which didn't fruit much before since we are in tropics, suddenly started to bloom a lot more. I'm guessing those creepers took up a lot for nitrogen so that the soil became more suitable for strawberries to bloom. So I guess inter cropping leafy plants with fruiting plants can benefit each other

    Awesome video as always. Starting right saves you lot of elbow grease and heartburns. Your garden is an example to that, on how to do it right the first time. I live further north where only native plants thrive and nothing else. Protecting the plants from extreme weather conditions is the biggest challenge here. Lack of shade structures or trees results in stunted growth during summer . In each harvest all I end up having is knowledge rather veg or fruits as it's evident in many of my videos. You're doing a wonderful job. Keep it coming. Happy gardening.

    Thank you for having a channel in the AZ desert. We struggle to grow much of anything due to backing up to undisturbed land. We have to create a bird netted garden space. This year we needed to redo our 4x8’ bed. We completely upgraded our soil in doing so. Now we have more tomatoes and cucumbers than the bed can hold. We also struggle with the excessive heat. Thanks again for your channel and expertise!
