You are so optimistic and positive ("...but we shall have..."), totally makes me hopeful for my little backyard garden to turn into something good eventually. Thanks a lot for your encouragements and inspirations. I like the idea of weeds confusing pests.
Love the new dog. 😊 My sister in law saw me wearing my compost your enemies shirt last week when I was up in Georgia. She loved it and wanted one. I ordered one for her birthday coming up. Love sharing your channel and other things.
Prigioni would like a word with you
😂😂😂
Good thing they didn't pick up a Yorkie. He'd be looking at trademark infringement.
Love these comments
Does Prigioni want to hold a dog fight?
😂
Thank God we got the fountain ( I love the drum bit best) I was patiently waiting….😂😂😂
Great video and great idea on mulching after a rain im gonna use your method this coming year as our growing season is over now 👍
lol, I watch your videos no matter what. Thank You for the good job you do. truly thanks.
I’m going to need you to release a few more audio books. They’re fantastic.
Thank you. I have been lax in recording.
I learn lots of great things from you, but mostly what keeps me coming back is your fun sense of humor, Thanks
I lost a couple of chickens to a raccoon? I found myself singing your song while digging the hole for the chickens, to be topped off with a passion fruit vine. Two birds one hole. Thanks
Thanks David the good. I love all your videos man. God bless you.
You too
Well, lets hope El Nino makes the next videos all about what to do when your grocery row garden floods...
That Fountain sure is unruly...best to cut his salary until he shapes up.
Our GRG is just about put to bed, and just in time. We have one more nice day before it gets into the low 30's at night, next week. Then: snow is predicted early November. I just need to rake the mulch off the paths (thank you, hens...) back on to the rows.
We had a nice, rainy summer, except for June, had to water a few times in June.
I will attest that Everglades tomatoes are weedy. You can cut them back, turn to the next tomato to trim, turn back around, and Miss Everglades has grown back. (well, that is just a BIT of hyperbole...but not much). DTG, you will get great Beefsteaks in the pretty new hoop house...
We need a couple of dogs like Betsy. She sure is cute.
Best to you all.
I would love to grow some good tomatoes - I hope so.
I love Betsy! David, you have inspired me to overextend myself. I just began the grocery row approach this summer after having soil testing done through the folks at grow abundant gardens. I’ve got trellises to make you jealouses and have been cutting parts to build wiz bang wheel hoes. The chicken and goat pens are now my stage one compost system. And I’m searching for one of those cutlass machetes. We are supposed to have record cold this winter in the southwest so I’m winterizing things that usually dont need it here in the California interior.
I love you David even if you're a bit wacky lol. If I had the space you have I wouldn't have the physical ability to use it.
Pup's such a sweetie, made me cry.
Betsy has some good acoustics over her belly pats. Thanks for the update David, God bless brother!
This has been a very strange weather year.
Ya it was
Truth
Awwwwww! Betsy! 😊❤
Tomatoes are hard to grow in the coastal PNW, too. Season's too short, nights are too cold, soil temp is too cold for too long, and just when you think this is the year you'll get big juicy tomatoes, the rains come and everything splits and tastes like water.
Yeah, drought is better than rain for 'em!
Maybe get a barrel you fill with water with a soaker hose attached to it that you can turn on as needed.
It was almost 70 this morning, then a nice cold wind came in and its now 45*. I have missed the frost in my yard so far but tonight its going to be cold (WI, zone 4b). All my neighbors had frost and their gardens were done, but having a food forestish, rabbits and chickens and out layout of buildings and fence we haven't had a frost. My backyard neighbor said I must have a dome, even almost up to our fence her plants were dead.
You created a microclimate it seems.
@@davidthegood I have and its a great thing.
That Betsy is a good girl! So happy she found a "good" (yes pun intended!) Home with you guys! It's been super dry here (just North of Atlanta) too. All I have planted for fall is some carrots, and since I grow in containers, I'm hoping I can keep them watered enough to make it.
Very timely video. I was weeding and cleaning my grocery row gardens today. I trellised the raspberries planted in the Spring and cleaned out the new asparagus bed. I left the weeds in the middle where the herbs are. They look happy. Lol.
Good Video! I can understand. Normally here (Middle Tennessee) by the middle of October, its rainy and cool. Cold weather is moving in...Not This Year! Its still hot & humid but dry... Down right dusty... Its been hard on the fruit trees & my fall plantings. But were still getting some food. Have a Blessed weekend!
I appreciate the video as always! Love that song at the end too!
Haha your videos are fun as well as instructive.
My rain gauge goes to 5" and overflowed here in DFW the other day. Crazy!
Nice
That was a crazy downpour. I got caught in it on the way home from work, it was hard to see the car in front of me. 😂
Want to send thanks for your grocery row gardening idea. I bought a house with a beautiful and large tiered annual garden that I failed with last year bc everything bolted in the exposed sun (and I didnt know what i was doing!). Im transitioning it into a grocery row garden and am excited for next year! Its a perfect solution for the space.
Thank you. I would love to see pictures. Congratulations
Woo! Lookin good, cheers to a good winter🎉🎉🎉 happy 🎃 day 🍁🍂🍃
All the hurricanes went west after they got out into the Atlantic. That really cut back on our rainfall.
Yeah, we could have used a tropical storm at least.
Waiting to see the yam harvest this year
I'm in the Caribbean and it's too wet. It's been hot and very dry for almost a year. Record heat. And now we're having drenching rain from Philip and Tammy. Thank God we missed a direct hit so no damage. The established trees needed the water but smaller plants and trees could drown. Hoping we get some sunny days to dry out. We just have to roll with whatever we get.
You are blessed, our dog chases the deer away, but if not for premier 1 fencing, she surely would eat our chickens!! Not a great harvest here, but all new everything, planning nect year. But best part, a great asparagus bed! Thanks for all the info and courage!
We had the opposite problem this year in New England tons of rain I did do well with my sweet potatoes everything else was so slow to get started and we have such a short season

You just perfectly described what my experience has been trying to grow tomatoes in Arizona
Can you do a video of balancing work with caring for children?
You could do a book on this and it would probably be a best seller.
I haven't totally figured it out yet!
@@davidthegoodjust wing it😅
Cool beard!!!
Man, I feel ya on that bonus section at the end of the video 😂 the drought this year was rough on sweet potatoes…
Sad to hear about no rain. I loved your video on the food forest island with lots of mulch
You can tell you speak from experience because what you said about not liking to mulch when its dry is so true. I made this mistake when i started gardening. There are many little nuianced things in the garden like that that only come from experience. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you. We learned many thing the hard way!
Thanks for the video !
It’s been really dry over here in Semmes also. I’ve been using a sprinkler to irrigate. Really hate I wasn’t able to make it to Scrubfest!
I'm sorry about your tomatoes! And the lack of rain. For the first time, ever, we had to water in the early part of the year. I was worried that the summer would be really dry, but it wasn't. The water bill was up pretty high for a while. There have been 2 times before when I did some limited watering, but never in the spring. Really weird. Nice doggie.
Thank you for mentioning chip drop , I tried getting it also ,no luck I was wondering what I was doing wrong ,but it happened to you too.
Love your videos..❤
The fountain was late to work. Two hours docked pay😂
Gran jardin
Never had luck with chip drop, been a member for years now. Maybe it's just my area, though. I do need some kind of mulch, my double dug beds are like concrete again because of the clay soil. Really wasn't much organic matter to gain from cutting the grass this season due to the drought. I've been contemplating swales to combat the runoff because of my land's natural slope to the East side. Anything to hold some of that rain water.
😃🌱🐢
+1 Betsy.
I split my sides laughing at the end, with your sweet potato digging course. 🤣 Does the $99 US include machete?
Now I know it's what you're used to, but here in Australia, I would love to be able to have an inch a month. We haven't received that amount of rain in a month for well over 6 months. Probably closer to a year. At least in my area. But then I live in a rain shadow. My coastal neighbours are laughing at me, with their lush gardens in the dry - but I get to belly laugh at them when the monsoon seasons (approx every 7 years) have flooded their houses.
As an Australian, I'm only joking. As I'd never laugh at a drowning neighbour. I'd grab a tinny and go rescue them. By tinny, I mean a small aluminium boat, not a lager. I'm one of those rare Aussies that don't drink. I'd be mocked and ridiculed, if my skills as the designated driver weren't so hotly in demand. 😅
Thanks for the video David. Cute pup. Q: can you show us how to sharpen the machete.

I've lived just south of you for most of my life, and Fall is, in fact, normally dry. Not as dry as it has been, but dryer than what you might have gotten used to over the last few years. August is the dryest month of the year, with September and October only getting rain a few times in each month. The rain should pick up again as the winter storms start crossing the country. At least, that's how it is normally. It's supposed to be very, very wet this winter, according to the weather forecast.
It isn’t dry in August here in a normal season. www.usclimatedata.com/climate/brewton/alabama/united-states/usal0066
Looks like you need a dew pond .
It was stupid hot this year and basically no rain since winter last year here in north Missouri and what rain we did get wasnt even close to being enough
@Disabled.Megatron what does it thrive in drought? I've never grown amaranth but if it's like lambs quarter it doesn't care wet or dry
Weather all over the place
It has gone beyond strange into downright abusive.
Buen video
I am near Charleston SC and we have been so dry that even my everglades tomatoes gave up in July reseeded themselves and those gave up in September.
Yikes
Bien el conocimiento
I need a deer chasing dog that doesn't go to far chasing them. My labs would keep going. Then she would stop and bark at the Racoons or Owls and make all the neighbors mad. 4 1/4 acres isn't enough. Lol
Yeah, if you want any kind of garden. You definitely need some rain.
😊😊👍👍💕💕🍁🍁
LOL. I could feed at least three families of mice with my sweet potato harvest this year. 🤣
DtG do you not use soaker hoses? I don't know how far away the spigot is from the grocery rows, but it seems like you could have the kids lay the hose down a row, turn on the water for an hour, move it to the next row, etc. etc. and be able to keep things watered with minimal time investment.
It's been a terribly dry year here as well. With our heavy clay and normally soggy springs, my beds are all built for good drainage, which was a hindrance when we haven't been at normal rain levels since summer of 22. Soaker hoses and a shutoff timer allowed me to get anything worth mentioning out of the garden this year.
Also, love the pup.
I like soaker hoses and he knows about them but he just doesn't like them very much. I think the hassle bothers him, also how easily they get holes in them.
Yes, that is the main issue. Hassle and holes. And sometimes the squirrels bite into them. But I am tempted after this year.
Yeah, they really saved our crop this year. If I'd known it would be this dry I would have just looked up "what do people in Southern Italy and Outback Australia grow". . . . . . @@davidthegood
@davidthegood - Do you know what the variety of pears that old timers had back in our grandparents and older day, that they made pear preserves with?
“Sand pears,” is the usual name
Thank you kindly!
The mice have been eating like kings😂
Thank you for the quick update. I have velvet bean growing in 9b central Florida. When do I harvest them? They are the stingless variety and getting big. Do they charge color to green? Right now they're a darker color.
When the seeds are full in the pods, but the pods are still not hard and woody is when to harvest for medicinal purposes- when the shell is woody hard for seed purposes.
💚
I have new trees and I'm scared the winter is going to kill them. Also baby tree cuttings. Way too many to bring in.
sorry to hear about the hamster bud.. my convalescents
Months since we had any beneficial rain
Yes
BETSY!!!
Just irrigate the place till the rain comes - if you have the water available
City water right now. We need a well, then I will. Thank you.
I have actually stopped watching channels because of people staging their dogs into videos. It got annoying, unless it was Tuck because Tuck actually takes part in gardening activities.
Agree! Unless it’s Tuck ❤❤❤
Who is Tuck?
Tuck is James Prigioni's dog.
I always found the, "HEY It;S MY PEt!" thing pretty ridiculous.
But Tuck is fine.
As I am employing your system in my own yard, and taking advantage of every bit of space I have on my tiny suburban lot.... when the rains just came through, all the ants from the garden built mounds up the south facing walls of my house and are crawling under the siding to escape the water (I assume). This worried me. A lot! I am sure they are red ants and not termites, because they bite, and the mounds were loose dirt rather than mud tunnels. I am still worried other flavors of ants or even termites will follow suit.
Questions are, how close to your house do your bring the garden? Do you mulch the same way along your foundation or just leave it bare dirt? grass? Do you have problems with ants crawling under your siding as a result of your gardening?
Evidently, this is a rainy fall problem from what I am reading, but I've never experienced this before. Hopefully, this rain is coming your way from Texas. It was 5 inches in 2 days here.
Yeh nah i'm far too lazy for all that bending and crouching. I'd just fence the chickens in there until it's fully prepped then call it good.
They do way too much damage to the mulch.
@@davidthegood fair enough, seems easier to rake the mulch back onto the beds than all that weeding though? not to mention major pest control and added nitrogen for the subsequent crops. We are growing in almost opposite conditions though and you know what works for you.
I swear I should pay my hens a living wage for the labor and money they save me. Between them and the fall leaves from my alder coppice i've added no outside nitrogen for years and get lush green growth in the beds without fail. and don't worry about not posting a huge amount of videos, the rewatchability of literally everything you put out more than makes up for it.
Wow. Well said.
I need a Betsy to run off our deer
3 steers tearing up my garden and running down my small garden 😢
That has to stop!
Try to gather whatever sweet potato leaves are left and have salad. . . and steak!
Lls james prigioni whole videos are more of a dog show than a garden channel
I have 2 of your books, I think we all need to buy more so you can buy appropriate tools….and shoes. 😀
That is funny.
Are you always barefooted? Is that healthy?
Yes
Yes

LOL - From one author to another... It's show not tell. You got it backwards. That's OK. You do it right anyway where it counts.
I know. I was joking.
Tell not show??? I thought it was show don’t tell?!?
Yes
@@davidthegood ok then
You are lovely and all, Mr. Good; but isn't it about time Rachel donned a wig, attitude and accent and made an apprarance? Or, better yet, as herself.
She is within a few weeks of delivering a baby right now, so she's not in the RUclips mood!
@@davidthegood good enough! Prayers you allz' way

Praying for a smooth delivery for Mama and Baby.
