In Uganda we have a saying that whatever happens, as long as the shepherd stays alive, he will still have some cattle. You are a very positive person James. And I am glad that you are still standing strong.
@@onalennasehume4586 He's a jerk, to be certain, but please don't feed the troll. You are alright, and he's a moron. Don't engage him. He wants to provoke you.
@The Truth about Africa hurts a dead tree hosts more life in an ecosystem than a living one. There is truth to what they are saying. You might wanna take your hostility down a bit.
@The Truth about Africa hurtsdo you have any books or articles to recommend? Your anger makes you seem a wee bit emotionally stunted. Do you need therapy? I can recommend some books for emotional growth and healing.
James, you are a wonderful , warm soul..I love how you see, and deal with life..I feel so fortunate to have found your channel..if more people were like you..the world would be a much more beautiful place ..Tuck knows this..
As farmers we are at the mercy of the weather and I have learned that after terrible storms it is important for me to wake up the next day with a thankful spirit and greet the new sunrise as a gift, an opportunity to keep going. 😊👩🌾 -Nette
James, you almost had me in tears with that intro, that sad music and scenes almost had me. I’m happy you and Tuck are safe and that the garden is okay! I’m in SC and I was worried about this storm hitting my garden. You have a wonderful, positive outlook, keep doing your best!!!
I just remember seeing the video where James was answering video grower’s questions and one question was “who is the camera person?” And James pretended that he was going to reveal who it was but just as the camera angle swung around to reveal who it was, James was like, NAH! 😂
You are a great worker, full of positive thoughts. Be strong and keep going. You still have your life, family your dog and many friends. You are my inspiration. Be blessed.
I know the feeling bro, storm hit us hard too my garden was almost total and a tree fell on my home 🏡 tough pill to swallow but everyone was ok and garden can always come back.🙏🏾🙏🏾
I'm sorry I know how much work, money and sweat you can put in them. It's a blessing that noone was hurt. Some people would give up but you didn't that's commendable alone😎
Your videos are literally the light at the end of the tunnel for me. Keep up the great work, you have no idea the impact you’ve made in my life. Thank you J!
You, young man, are an amazing, blessed person! Your motivational skills are off the chart; your gardening skills are right up there with them. Thank you for all that you, Tuck and our mystery cameraman/woman do every video. You encourage, teach, you're compassionate and passionate. All stellar qualities that more young people need to have! Shabbat Shalom and Blessings from Missouri. *boop* (kiss on the nose for Tucker)
No wonder your garden is so healthy and lush - You (and Tuck no doubt) bring positive and happy energy to all that you do there, disaster or not. Growing great earth is important for happy plants, but equally important is bringing great energy - plants need this as do all living things. Inspiring, and something it is good to be reminded of - leave any negativity at the gateway to my garden. So thank you and Tuck for being glowing examples of this lesson.
You AMAZE me! With all that destruction- you see only positive! I am so impressed! I am letting all my gardener friends know what you've done to salvage your garden. You are the BEST!!! Tuck too! Thank you, again, for being the calm in the crazy!
Thank U! I live in Atlanta and I got sick and couldn't attend to my garden. Any WHOoooo I was feeling down after trying to rescue it ALL in one day TODAY! U gave me strength, hope AND a smile!😘 Thanks for the encouragement
@@jamesprigioni im from phillippines and i always watch your videos..everytime im stress in just watching your videos ilove the vegetables ,fruit everything you plant..iwish someday ihave like that
God Bless you for your great attitude under bad weather results. That's what you have to do, is plant enough for catastrophes that are bound to happen, and that keeps us humble. Your garden still looks fantastic. Be of good cheer--- we love you and Tuck ! tms poet Ohio
So happy that you always seem so positive regardless of the situation. That’s a wonderful attitude. Love to see Tuck as always. Thanks for all the information! 🌺👍🏻
You are so positive James! I really appreciate that you're just repairing things and not whining about what happened. I'm 74 and still learning! Thank you!
Three back to back storms came in and caused havoc. However I decided since I had a bunch of new space in the garden to try some crops I normally wouldn’t grow. Just seeded brassicas! Excited to see what I can make of it! Thanks for being such a positive role model in the garden. My husband and I love watching tuck. We just started letting our dogs into the garden. They aren’t very calm and mindful of my plants yet. They are like two miniature horses trampling through with the zoomies! Haha hope that tomato takes off and really produces for you!
GULF coast gardeners make it just a part of our gardening choes. Storm on the way g harvest absolutely everything you possibly can. And then you CAN. Sorry your garden suffered, but what a blessing that it wasn't worse. Love your videos, I gotta get me a little gardening dog!😁
I felt devastated at the beginning watching the wind whip everything around and see things all over the place. Then, with your bright and positive outlook, your approach to restoring things and fortunately saving all that you can made me so happy. Glad it wasn’t worse than it was!
I have a sister who always says that when things don't go right, you gotta find the rainbow. You did that James. My heart went out to you when I saw the storm in your garden. Good luck to you and Tuck!!
Sorry about the storm; glad you're getting things back on their feet. I grew up on a farm where we would get destructive hailstorms nearly every year. It was often heartbreaking to go around after the storm and begin the rebuilding process and is not easy to learn to deal with. Good luck James and Tuck.
You have the best attitude. I CRIED!!! My 7 year old son is happy that Tuck is okay. He’s been afraid of plants (I know, I garden; it’s awful) and you two (Tuck mostly) are helping him get over his fears. Much love to you guys!!!
My heart breaks for you, So much love , time, and energy you put into your garden. I love your positive spirit. stay strong . Thank you for all the lessons learned, regardless of our age we can all continue to learn and grow.
Hopes and prayer coming from Miami FL. I know from first hand experience, the best thing to do is dive in and get er done! After these storms we come out on top because we still have our lives! Hopes, prayers and happy growing.
It's my garden and I'll whine and cry if I want to. Lol. I love you James and Little Man Tuck too. You are just so positive about things and I really LOVE that about you. After 5 years of amending my soil it's still just sand and I keep on trying because of you. Don't have a clue what I'm doing wrong but you make me keep trying. 💕💕💕💖💖💓💙💛💚❤
hey i feel i can add my two cents here, dealing with a frustrating season coming off a late frost in basically the beginning of may, had a lot of plant death in the garden for the first time- im partialy to blame, chose not to cover them with thrashbags and straw, wanted to see what plants would handle it and what would not, stupid experiment but im glad it happened that way... i digress. what i want to say is that this season i have been remembering my best season for tomatoes, a season that started with some heartbreak when a severe hail event stripped my vines bare of leaves and knocked about 40% of the fruit off. what happened next amazed me the plants all bounced back faster and with more fruit setting then i knew what to do with. had a lot of vines 14-16 feet that season i remember it fondly. i hope you see your garden bounce back in a way that is just as memorable as the storm! peace!
You have such a great attitude James. I love your quotes. I always enjoy hearing them. They always make me smile. Tuck is the cutest puppy ever. So adorable.
Your grapes have nothing wrong with them because they are losing the foggy , thicker skin. It’s called veraision, it’s the onset of ripening and the grapes will turn from a foggy look and thick skin to a shinny thinner skin. Glad y’all were okay during the storm and that the garden isn’t completely wiped out.
I was almost killed from that storm. When it started raining I went to put away my gardening tools and a tree broke in half and barely skimmed my arm. This was a 300 lb tree from about 60 feet in the air. I should be dead right now.
So glad you are safe, I was worried about the trees. We have had many trees fall in past storms, but luckily we were okay, just had the power out until about an hour ago.
I cried... seriously, I started to cry, when I started to watch this. Then, at 1:25 minutes in I saw James do his normal intro, energized and excited, and without even watching anything further I realized he will bounce back even stronger than before!!! You go James!!!
Thanks for the message of turning a negative into a positive! My kids love your videos! They struggle with being too hard on themselves when they fail. I'm constantly teaching them how to learn and grow from it, but it's helpful when people they look up to say it! Thanks again. Glad you could save so much of your beautiful garden!
Oh James...I almost cried when I saw what the storm was doing to your food forest! Your can-do positive attitude was awesome to see and encouraged me so much. I love your outlook on life in the garden!
I planted cucumbers, tomatoes , zucchini and long beans in different areas in my garden, when the storm hit here a large oak fell onto my garden, wiped out some tomatoes, cucumbers long beans and damaged my zucchini, the others I planted in different areas fared well with little damage. You are the one that gave me these ideas , I’m grateful for all of your knowledge. Thank you
James, you're a breath of fresh air brother. Your attitude is nothing short of inspirational. Thank you so much. Always seeing the lesson instead of the loss. Brilliant.
I love the string and clip method. Once they reach the top of the trellis, I just let them go and flop down the other side. They do just fine. Glad to see you are bouncing back after the storm.
I feel your pain. Isaias visited us in Montreal and left a *lot* of rain. I ran out and drilled several additional holes 2 inches from the bottom of all my containers - crazy beautiful potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers. One day of hard sun and everything is exploding with growth. I am 60 days out from first frost with a late start due over-ambitious garden restoration. But everything just wants to grow. I too am collecting data for next year and beyond. We are all only 1 or 2 or 3 generations removed from folk who knew how to grow their own food and surpluses. I think it is in our DNA. we just need to flex those muscles and then watch in awe at what transpires
I have been gardening for over 55 years and I really respect your positive attitude. You will always run into obstacles and how your respond is what will define you! Kudos my friend... Keep on keepin on....
Man I was so disheartened by the intro scenes of your beautiful garden being beaten up by the storms wind! Then you come in with your amazing energy and positive attitude and I immediately know you'll make the best of it. Your friends and family are so lucky to have you in their lives! I love all the gardening tips I get from you, but at the end of the day you're teaching a class on how to respond to adversity! Bravo sir!
Thank you, James. You remind me I need to bring a positive attitude into the garden, that it is felt by all my plants. I've been struggling this spring with the odd weather, several late frosts killing many of my tomatoes (too eager on my part!). But you've reminded me that everything is a learning experience if we let it be one. Thank you to you and the boss, Tuck🐈
I'm sorry you sustained some losses. But the 2 most important garden features survived...you and Tuck!! Thanks for helping to continue to encourage us, even during your down times.
I love your optimism and your desire to learn and share from all your experiences in the garden! Thank you. PS Tuck is a great little sidekick! I love him!❤️❤️
I help run a community garden in Nebraska and I recently found your channel. I find it so inspiring how you learn from failure and success equally, and also how sweet you are with your little dog. I am a nurse by profession and sometimes the world gets a little scary, but gardening and your channel offer an escape. The chance to destress in the garden helps me cope. Thank you for doing what you do!
I've got no chipmunks or groundhogs on my balcony, but I've got fungus gnats and they ruined most of my seedlings this year. Even Neem oil didn't work, but I haven't given up. I love your positive attitude, James.
I sit in middle of what use to be garden and cry cause all the hard long hours to get it doing so good then within a few hours every thing,,gone,,thank god your garden survived
Ive been lurking for a couple weeks now since stumbling on your channel. This one moved me. Im so SO grateful for your positive attitude and, even more, that you are NOT afraid to rally against self pity and focus on positive! Ive already subscribed and your channel is becoming my "go-to" for ideas. Im a west coast gardener. Much love and support! Thank you for your great ideas and info!
In Uganda we have a saying that whatever happens, as long as the shepherd stays alive, he will still have some cattle. You are a very positive person James. And I am glad that you are still standing strong.

No almost about it, here. I don't cry at much, but I cried at that.
I felt the same.
The intro had me teary too 😪 James, your channel is amazing. Ive learned so much. You are PURE AF🙏🌏💛
I lost two bean towers. No biggie, but I was a little worried about you and Tuck. I’m so glad you two (and mystery camera operator! 😃) are safe! 🌸
I do believe, in the past, he said it was his brother
I always thought the mystery camera person was his wife
Its truly a mystery. Who knows!

Qanon?
@@ethan.000 yes, listen to him again and think of what Q has told us of the Storm, then think, after the Storm. Its amazing.

It's my garden and I'll whine and cry if I want to. Lol.

I love your optimism and your desire to learn and share from all your experiences in the garden! Thank you. PS Tuck is a great little sidekick! I love him!❤️❤️
You are so amazing! Wonderfully upbeat message that we all need to hear right now! Ok I gotta go turn all my negatives into positives now
I help run a community garden in Nebraska and I recently found your channel. I find it so inspiring how you learn from failure and success equally, and also how sweet you are with your little dog. I am a nurse by profession and sometimes the world gets a little scary, but gardening and your channel offer an escape. The chance to destress in the garden helps me cope. Thank you for doing what you do!
I've got no chipmunks or groundhogs on my balcony, but I've got fungus gnats and they ruined most of my seedlings this year. Even Neem oil didn't work, but I haven't given up. I love your positive attitude, James.
I sit in middle of what use to be garden and cry cause all the hard long hours to get it doing so good then within a few hours every thing,,gone,,thank god your garden survived
Ive been lurking for a couple weeks now since stumbling on your channel. This one moved me. Im so SO grateful for your positive attitude and, even more, that you are NOT afraid to rally against self pity and focus on positive! Ive already subscribed and your channel is becoming my "go-to" for ideas. Im a west coast gardener. Much love and support! Thank you for your great ideas and info!
i would love to have just 1/4 of your enthusiasm for life!! GOD bless you and yours! 💕
