    Hi, I’m John Schultz, owner of JDS Home Inspection Services in Denver, Colorado. I’ve produced several videos on home-related subjects, so I thought I’d take this opportunity to talk about something I’m very passionate about. I love being a home inspector, but I also love spending time in my garden. Many new homeowners have never had a lawn before, let alone a garden, and starting from scratch can be a daunting prospect.

    Great tips! Took me a few years to realize I could overwinter my peppers -- saves so much time! Would love to see an update of this year's garden.

    I like your recommendation of growing flowers with your veggies. The problem with beekeeping is that it can put competitive pressure on our essential native pollinators, plus honeybees can be an expensive nuisance. One of my neighbors had to pay $3k to have them gingerly removed from a structure on his property, which seems silly, but he was threatened with fines otherwise.

      We keep leaf-cutter bees from Crown Bees. Super easy. Nothing like honeybees. I believe they’re also native.

    Always good when you learn something new, like potting your peppers to bring in over the winter. Also like setting a day for fertilization. I know I tend to forget after a few weeks.

    Nice video! I believe cross-pollination is only an issue if you're harvesting the seeds (exception is corn). Shouldn't affect that year's harvest, right?

    Please tell me those aren’t railroad ties you’re using for your beds???

    • @bestpricehomeinspection
      @bestpricehomeinspection  2 месяца назад

      Actually, those are railroad ties, good sturdy wood But you’re right they shouldn’t be used in the garden as they can damage the soil since they’re usually treated with creosote, however these were never treated with creosote and we’re part of a cattle fence that had stood for the past 80 years. The new owner wanted them removed so I actually got them for free. Good point though

    Grasshoppers have annihilated my veggies in CO this year.

    • @bestpricehomeinspection
      @bestpricehomeinspection  2 года назад +1

      I’m sorry to hear that, this was indeed a rough year for gardening, that late snowfall in May then a string of hot dry days wreaked havoc. Unfortunately these were perfect conditions for grasshoppers. Try again next year.
