    I finally put my "Jess made me do it" sticker on my garden journal. My husband saw it and asked how many I had. When I told him I only had one, he asked why they don't come in packs of twenty...There might be a lot of Jess made me do it over here.

    I bought 2 Greenstalks during their last sale and I was so touched by what came in that box. They clearly put so much love into this product and their customers. It came with an adorable little card telling me about the person who packed my Greenstalks, stickers, a very helpful little how to booklet and some free seeds! I was not expecting it at all and it really made me feel special and valued as a customer. That's when I fell in love with not just my Greenstalks, but the entire company. I can't wait to buy some more! Thanks for the sale, Jess 🤗

    You could always let all the basil grow a bit more and then harvest it as micro greens. That way you are able to honour their existence by getting nourishment from them and then you can remove them before they become a problem in the garden.

    It's such a treat to see someone smelling sweet peas for the first time. If you're get new seed, make sure you get old fashioned varieties, those have the sweetest smell of all, but they are not as blousy. Keep picking them, pull off any seed heads and you will get hundreds.

      I had to stop the video and give some unsolicited advice, Jess. Honey I know tank tops are great. I love them. HELLO I'm in menopause. However, besides the hat, find some thin long sleeved button ups when you thrift. Wear them over your tank tops. You will be so sorry over time if you don't. Speaking from experience here. Also, I have read in comments of other gardening videos where people have actually been getting blisters on their skin from just a short time out in the sun. PLEASE be careful dear lady!! I know summer is not here yet. But, the sun doesn't care.

    The aroma of sweet peas, as a commercial fragrance, will trigger an immediate migraine for me. I'll take your word for it that it is lovely, and avoid it for myself. I'm really struggling with a major emotional issue right now, and would appreciate prayers for a resolution that doesn't harm anyone - which is a really big request, as everyone involved believes that everyone else involved is treating them with disrespect and rudeness. The stakes couldn't be higher (the integrity of my entire family) and I truly do not want to live in this kind of emotional chaos. For those who offer prayers for this huge request, I am grateful.

    😂 really enjoyed watching you huff sweet peas. I go huff herbs everytime I go to the garden. Most of them I don’t do anything with them… just there for huffing! It’s so true about the kids only being easy when it was their idea… next time if you suggest it they will just say nah that’s boring. It’s also amazing what is sooo fun when they have a friend over compared to if it’s just them. I had to upgrade my pool this year because my 8ft livestock tank was just waaay to lame for my middleschoolers…

    Sweet peas were my Nana’s favourite flower and I have grown them every year since she passed, I even found one with her name, Lois. They are incredible. Make sure you pinch out the seedlings as you do with other plants and ensure you keep the water up to them. I’m in Australia and we grow them the same way, seeds in on St Patrick’s day (autumn) and they bloom in spring.
