Our 2 year old son has just harvested the last carrots of the year, he loves it in the garden 🙂 Also he independently recognised a volunteer lettuce, and said 'lettuce' amid the spinach patch! Made me so proud. We're planting garlic today. These are invaluable lessons I'm so happy to be able to teach my son ❤🥬🍅🥕
Great way to start kids eating healthier and teaching them to be self-sufficient. My nephew started by planting seeds with my mom at 2 years old, and loved to pick vegetables for his soup. He always ate all his veggies growing up.
He'll remember that and it'll stay with him throughout his lifetime. I grew up that way. Learning so much just by watching, helping. I'm thrilled that he already knew the lettuce from the spinach! ❤
Hey James , have you ever planted the small little cloves of garlic an grown them very close together. Pull them when they get the size of a green onion . They are great . Just chop them up like you would a green onion an you have the garlic flavor for stir fry or soups an stew.
Inchelium is pronounced inch-el-ee-um, I live in Washington where that variety was discovered here in the small town of Inchelium located on the Colville Indian Reservation that I am from. It is a great garlic. We are growing it here too, as well as a couple hardneck varieties that are Spanish Roja and Romanian Red. I love your channel, a lot of great information every video. Thank you.
Is it too early to plant it in the Seattle area? It's been down to 29 degrees a couple times but typical weather will be mid-30s and above except for some cold fronts.
Yes Tuck is enjoying his carrots. So adorable. Wonderful you help him get his snacks from the garden. So cute! Thanks for the Garlic planting tips! Hope you have a great harvest of big tasty Garlic in June or July!
Just found your videos a couple days ago. You and Tuck are inspiring to Phantom pup and I. Btw; it’s “Inch-uh-Liam.” At least according to the town about an hour north of me in Washington State.
I mulch them with straw, and in the spring the garlic shoots right through the straw to grow healthy bulbs. The straw keeps the weeds out through the summer growth.
By the way, the garlic scapes are delicious when sauteed or used as garlic is used, and gives an early garlic flavor while you're waiting for the bulbs to develop. So it's somewhat worthwhile in my estimation to let it grow but not to get even close to flowering.
🌺I just love watching Tuck eat his veges, He’s the sweetest little guy❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you for this garlic video, am getting ready to plant mine in a week
Precious Tuck ♥ ! Zone 4 Canada, planted 210 cloves this fall. Half on Sept 30 and half on Oct 3. Cultivars are : Majestic, Susan Delafield, Great Northern, Red Rezan. We like garlic.
I love your shows! Very informative - I learn something new every time! I love your energy and enthusiasm, and I also love Tuck, your garden Snoopervisor. ❤️ 🪴 📚
Hi James and Tuck, I have just found your channel and I love it. Tuck is an amazing little friend and so well loved by you and you can tell he adores his daddy. I really hope I can try some of your advice soon we live in zone 7 in Alabama. You have a very pleasant voice and a great teacher. Thank you so much from Bama
Since I love fresh garlic so much it makes economic sense to grow my own. Recently I tried fermenting some in raw honey. Great stuff for chest congestion. My favorite snack is grated cheddar with mayo, at least one crushed clove (depending on the amount of cheese). I add some Italian seasoning. Makes a great spread on saltines. Now and then I mix in some sriracha when in the mood for spice.
Worth noting that scapes can be eaten. Stir fry seems to be the usual suggestion. But don't leave it too late to remove them or they'll become tough & fibrous and most unpalatable. I know from experience; I'm not going to leave them until too late next year.
James, could you do a video on where to order garlic, onions, berries, fruit trees etc online? There are so many places but would love to hear your favs! Gabby
Yes please do!!! I'm just starting to research and really plan out how to even start gardening from zero knowledge and your channel and the vibes are LIT!!! you're the best! A video explaining where you order seeds from and etc would be so dope!
I ordered a ton of fruit trees and berry bushes from Stark Bros nursery and they all have done great. I know in some of his vids he references Rain tree nursery. Other than that you can search your areas for nurseries and also check Facebook marketplace. I found homesteaders super close that were selling fruits, veggies and trees at very low prices. You might be surprised how many growers are in your area.
I've had great success with Filaree Garlic Farm, and am also trying Keene this year. Waiting for potato onions to come back in stock at Filaree. I tried a variety of garlic one year, and Persian Star was a hands down favorite me.
Thanks James for suggesting intercropping with tomatoes. That's exactly whaayt I'm going to do. My tomato bed is jst waiting to be mulched now it'll have something planted in it . Watch out. as I might make a video of it.
I planted some organic soft neck garlic that I bought from my local grocery store. I went organic because I heard the other garlic could be treated to prevent growth so not to grow in the store. They have small green stems popping up about 2 inches tall. This was my first time. I can't wait for spring. I hope I get lots of garlic to share.
Here on Vancouver island last night, as the tradition goes, we celebrated Thanksgiving with friends. We had a nice dinner where we shared with each other our vegetables, berries and fruits in delicious various recipes. It was a feast! Everything, but the turkey, came from our gardens. Thank you for your great gardening lessons, James. They inspired me and my husband all kinds of planning in our backyard. Plus, your abundant joy overflows in our gardens :-) God bless you!
I just started growing garlic for the first time this year! I'm also in NJ, and can't wait to see how if they grew well, and to use some fresh garlic in my cooking.
I plant hardneck here in NH. German varieties and Music are my favs. I put in 116 cloves a cpl weeks ago. Mulched with ground leaves and grass clippings. Now, back to chorin.
Great garlic session. Thank you. I'm up in the greater Ottawa area. Zone 4. My hard neck, 'Music', if dried well for 5-6 weeks, keeps until July of the following season as long as it is stored at room temperature in paper bags and in the dark. It is wonderful stuff; 4-6 cloves per head. It goes in Oct. 20th, top knuckle deep, in compost, topped with leaf mulch. A-1.
40+ years ago I obtained garlic from an old man whom I rented from.....his father had brought it to the U.S. when he emigrated from the Czech Republic in the early 1900's. It is of the hardneck kind and originally came from the steppes of Russia. I always fall plant and have had the garlic winter over to less that -40F and still produce a very fine crop of bulbs. If I give people some, they will always be back as they cannot find anything to compete with it. It has reddish-purple skin and a very distinctive flavor. I always have to be sure to have enough to put in come fall. I would hate to lose that cultivar.......I don't know where I could go to replace it. Thanks for the upload. Hi Tuck!! P.S. I just pulled the last of my radishes here in Kansas and there are still carrots and spinach looking good.
Ohhh🐶Tuck is so patient waiting on you to give him his snack! He is so sweet and clever. Im glad to see him eating his carrots and staying healthy! Thank you for the videos!
I'm thinking about trying garlic in a grow bag- figure it can't hurt to try! Wish me luck! Thanks for the smiles I get just watching Tuck munch on carrots in the garden😀!
I am trying both hard & soft neck garlic this year too. I love your idea to plant between the tomatoes. That's my plan now. Thanks for the idea. Oh my gosh....Tuck is so adorable. Love his little ears and how they perked up when you mentioned a snack. He is just amazing. Glad he loves the garden just as much as we do. Thanks for sharing. 💗💗 for Tuck. Be well. Stay safe, James. 🌻💗🌻💗
Should mention that the scapes from the hardneck garlic are edible, and delicious. We gather them up and throw them in the food processor to make compound butter to store in the freezer. Scapes are the reward for growing garlic, for us. You can only get them from growing yourself, or from farmer's markets.
loved the carrot munching episode....my two dogs get a carrot every night...planted some garlic two days ago in my raised beds. hope they grow. it's my first try. :)
Hey James! We all adore Tuck, but I don’t want you to feel like that’s the only reason we watch your videos. Personally (I’m sure many other people agree), I come for your enthusiasm, experience, and ability to inspire everyone. You’re one of my go-to RUclipsrs to watch anytime I have a question. I’m sure you’ve heard this and know this, but I just want to remind you that we all love your content and energy and that we just love to support the channel mascot, Tuck XD
My favorite time of the year, because we get to sow garlic cloves! Total magic! I’m always curious to know who’s doing the camera work, maybe we can meet them? Love Tuck! xo
Ok wow! So glad I stumbled across your channel. In Michigan just changed to zone 6. Good info on gardening on a budget. Hope your gonna do something on growing seedlings.
Planted my first garlic rows 2 weeks ago (organic store bought though). Thanks for sharing about leaving a space for tomatoes. I’ll do that next time. Tuck & his 🥕🥕 🥕 is the highlight of the show!
Never grown garlic and this video gave me a terrific variety of information. My dogs are veggie lovers also. Tuck needs a little quality control jacket and a clipboard to carry around making notes. He's precious.
Our 2 year old son has just harvested the last carrots of the year, he loves it in the garden 🙂

Little tuck really makes the video..He’s just so lovable cutest little thing ever🙋🏿♀️🙋🏿♀️..Thanks for the video I learned a lot..🙌🏽🙌🏽
Tuck and his carrots! I could watch him all day.
A quick way to separate hardneck garlic: hit the neck on a hard surface and the root end will pop off. Thank you for your videos 😊
Tuck for President ! 🐶🐾 🤘😀👍
I second that!
I love your enthusiasm and expertise! I watch 5 or 6 different garden channels on RUclips and you are by far my favorite! Keep up the good work!
Thanks Frankie that means a lot to me and Tuck my friend ❤️
Me too! ❤❤
Tucks ears and carrot crunching is irresistible. ❤️
I just love how tuck enjoys fresh vegetables.

Me too, I would be lost without the little guy! 🐕❤️

Your garden tutorials are fantastic, but watching Tucker enthusiastically eat fresh garden veg is pure joy!
"Whaaat's going on!"...lol...you crack me up every time with your cheerful greeting! Love your idea, I will try it next year.
Sometimes I rewind it a few times, especially if he does the little hop with it... makes my day
@@tinkalinks lol a Jersey thing

Your videos are really great. Lots of good info.
Love some Tuck!! ❤❤ Loves his carrots 🥕

Your gardening tips are always great, but little Tuck steals the show! I love your sweet dog.
I didn't realise that I should mulch the garlic over the winter. Thanks for the heads up. Always something new to learn. Hi Tuck!!!❤
Such good food for your cute little dog.....❤....thank you for the video.
I enjoyed watching this video and Tuck 👌
Oh my gosh its freezing here in Michigan no more shorts lol. I already planted mine in huge pots.. Say hi to Tuck

Thank you for this. I have wanted to try growing garlic and have been a little intimidated. Thank you for explaining this in an easy informative way.
Thanks, James, for your timely garlic tutorial. As always, worthwhile info presented in a fun, easy format. And TUCK!

Love to our sweet carrot 🥕 eating Tuckey💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙Thanks for the info on garlic, I love garlic ❤️I need to order some

I’m super intrigued about the idea of growing garlic among the tomatoes!
