i learned along time ago if you want gardening advice ask the nearest white haired man in overalls

The way you showed concern for people getting frustrated and abandoning gardening was so kind and sincere. 💚

Yep that’s where I am now

The Master!

Awww 😭😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️ He sounds, looks & acts exactly like my Grandpa & Uncles. I enjoyed this so much! He’s very informative & interesting.

Leon is a very generous man. Generous with his knowledge. He’s no nonsense. I consider it a huge privilege to have met him. He’s a very well respected man not only in his community, but outside as well.

I could listen to Leon say wiggle wire all day 😂 Thank you for the information, this is exactly what I was looking for.

The way the phrase "wiggle wire" slides off his tongue is amazing. Great info! Thank You!

I just had to make a comment. I had a garden center 16 yrs. We cut 8-12" sections from black 2" PVC pipe, then cut out a strip so we can bend them down over the metal pipe. Works like a charm and less expensive and time consuming than when we bought a section of wiggle wire channels

I just purchased a 17 foot by 48 foot high tunnel it is made with a thick gage 1x1 square tubing at 4 foot between ribs this video is very encouraging

Thank you for your video. Lots of good info trying to decide what kind of greenhouse to make. I have use wiggle wire in the past and it’s the only way to go.

HUUGGEEEE THANKS LEON !!! Best High tunnel description and construction methods I've heard / seen so far. Simplified way down the GOOD high tunnel construction methods. Of course; like you said; the "easy, conduit, etc" versions are simple; but you get what you pay for with them. Really like your gift for describing things simply. Step by step and very clear. Keep on truckin' Leon !!!

You explained the concept of tunneling for heat retention so well everyone should now understand. People always laugh when I put caterpillar tunnels inside the hoop house. I use rebar stakes hammered into the ground to attach hula-hoops to (yes, the toy), cover them with plastic and they work great inside the hoop house. I live in the Canadian Rocky Mountains, so our hoop house gets completely stripped and put to bed for the winter, but I absolutely love how you twist the outside ropes over each 4' section and will be using your method this year. Our winds can easily reach 80-100mph and our hail & wind storms can devastate crops for miles, so anything we can do to strengthen our houses helps. Have you ever attached a water-catchment system to your hoop-houses? Our hoop-houses can produce enough water to more than cover our gardening requirements for the season, we have friends in Alaska that use their hoop-houses to water their crops too. It never ceases to amaze me just how much water we actually collect, in fact, half of it goes to our overflow. Love watching your set-ups and technique, our growing season is of course totally different than yours, but it's amazing how many of your techniques work no matter where you live. Happy Gardening.

A world of knowledge lives in this man. We should all be this blessed. He has forgotten more than most will know. ❤

What a joy to watch you.I really enjoyed your information and knowledge! Thanks Leon! ❤️

Common sense is the un-common intelligence. Leon has it dialed in. ~ your neighbor

I love to listen to you for two reasons. One, you know so much and I live to learn from you. Two, you sound like my family in Arkansas and it makes me smile.😊

Growing pearls of wisdom

I just love this man . Down to earth genuine really good straight forward information, thank you!

Wow! Learned more than all the other hoop house videos I’ve watch combined! Thank you for doing this. I sure wish you lived next door ;-)

You're my hero. Thank you for all of your knowledge!

I could watch your videos all day. Thank you for making them.

Leon. You might be the reason the internet was created. Thanks for your insights!!

Thank you Leon! So much wisdom! Soaking it up!

Thank you Leon!

Just when i thought I've learned all i need, you go and put out another video to teaching this old dog a new trick..........yahooooowe

Thanks for teaching me something about farming! I've subscribed and hope to learn more to assist in my backyard garden! And to think that former NYC mayor Bloomberg said that there's nothing to farming - "Dig a hole, put in a seed, water it, and you have food!" He might be a billionaire, but he has a lot to learn!

So happy to have found this channel. Leon makes incredible sense!

By far the best high tunnel vid on KZread, chock full of info!

Thank Leon! Keep making them I find them very informative.

So much wisdom! Thank you Leon!

I feel like my grandpa is explaining this all to me. I've been looking for an old head to answer a few questions before i build mine because these city folk with a tiny greenhouse in the back yard ($5k kit) just isn't cutting it. That man knows a thing or two because he has seen a thing or two.

WONDERFUL video! I always learn something new. Thank you.

Awesome video Leon, I learned alot, have a wonderful great day, God Bless

Can't wait to get my Hugh tunnel installed! Love learning from your videos! So informative!

Thank you Leon ! I learned a lot!

What a good teacher you are, Mr. Leon! Thank you!

Mr Leon your AMAZING

Thanks for all the good info!

wonderful advice thank you!

Excellent info Leon!

Another informative video! Thank you!

Thank you so much for this wonderful information.

I like the way you explain things in detail. Plain and simple thank you Leon.

Hi Leon, I am an old gardener here in the mountains of East Tennessee and came across this video. You seem like a man of great knowledge and can not wait to see some more of your videos. I am new to these hoop houses and green houses and am looking to build something or another to extend our growing season here. My favorites are tomatoes and cucumbers. Take care and stay healthy.

I appreciate your info in regards to the eicking beds and high tunnels😊

Thank you so much for all the wonderful information about your hot tunnel. I am so excited now that I have started a garden it's small just in my little back yard but at least it's something. I appreciate you sharing all your knowledge. Great video.

Great video! Thank you for putting this out.

I came over cause Daniel sent me, i am from Canada .

Lot of know-how and wisdom. Thank you sir for your help.

Thank you for sharing your practical wisdom Leon...Excellent presentation!

Like your no nonsense approach to gardening. Easily understood and to use in my next high tunnel .

Incredibly helpful and a joy to listen to you, thank you Leon. Subbed 😊👍

Leon you are a legend

Thank you for this information, I've got a better understanding and look forward to setting one up when I go to PA😊 God bless

Thank you for your videos!!

Thank you Leon for providing the service you do.

Great friendly advice!! 👍🤠Thank you for your video Buddy!! you're advice is priceless!! Kind regards Ron!! From Tasmania Australia!! 👍😃

That would pretty cool to design a simple machine to put up the plastic for a farmer. The time saved would be beneficial. But I don't know. Great lesson's sir. Wow insane wind's it holds against

Thank you for this great video! It has been more informative than anything I have seen so far. We are getting ready to purchase a high tunnel and were very concerned about the wind. Your video helped out so much.

😂 you are so cute I love the way you compare in between both so much

I really enjoyed this video it gave me some great ideals on improving my homestead. Thank you for your knowledge.

This Man knows his business, great information..

Very glad to see u Leon and this very great content video's

A big thumbs-up on the video Leon doing a great job explaining the difference between a high tunnel and a greenhouse I love watching your videos thank you for sharing thank you for taking the time to share with us your knowledge Daniel's right you are very knowledgeable

Very knowledgeable man, a joy to listen to.

Lots of great information, thank you

Thanks for sharing your knowledge, I like learning about your wiggle wire attachments and the special plastic for the greenhouse.

First vid I viewed... subscribed! Thank you for saving me the time of looking up “wiggle wire” and how to use it!

Thank you Sir for your Custodianship, from 📍🦘 Be Well 🙏🏼😃

Thank you thank you thank you sir answered all of my questions

Getting ready to build my first greenhouse ever, here in N.E. Oklahoma, and I just learned quite a bit today, sir. Keep up the Great Work!!! Thank you and have a Wonderful Day!

Excellent video bell is rang!!!

Leon we absolutely love your channel and content. Learn about you from Daniel Arms . Would love one of your high tunnels.

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH MR LEON!!!! Your generosity with your information and life experiencs have been so very helpful and a God send.

great information, Leon is a great person, I have done several deals with him,

It was wonderful listening to him!

Wow! You're a wealth of useful information, Mister! The info about the ropes and the nested mini tunnels, with degree benefit for each layer was so useful to me. I'm building a tunnel right now and have been thinking about how I'd either put panels on top over winter to keep the tarp from flapping around, or figure out another way. You've just guided me to that other way - ropes. I have pre-drilled struts, in 12 gauge, for side purlins and an extra set for rolling the tarp, so I have the structure in place to weave the rope taut and keep it taut. Thanks so much, Mister! Subbing your channel.

Love this. Man in overalls!!! Thanks sir

Thanks Leon. Great information - as usual.

Great video and knowledge Leon. Thank you sir!

Mr. Leon is awesome!

Thank you sir . Glad to hear your in Oklahoma, my home state ..

You seem to be open to change when something new, when it comes with what you are doing. That is very wise. I hope you never lose your houses to anything. God speed to you. I love these kinds of videos. I find it easier to learn when shown and told what to do with these things. Thanks for the video.

Great video Leon, I'm glad I got to see your green houses

Nicely done sir, thanks and appreciate the explanation. Just bought an old aluminum I beam set up.

Love your videos! Liked! 👍

Excellent video!

Yes, I enjoyed the video well explained!

Thank you you’re excipients is so valuable it make simple sense know

Thank you for explaining the wiggle wire, I had not heard of it. I am really enjoying your videos. I live in a small apartment with a balcony. I have experimented with balcony gardening before by putting bags of potting soil in trays of water made from pvc and plastic. It worked OK but took a lot of space which I do not have. I want to try your buckets using 2-gallon buckets to stack them to make towers and grow greens and herbs. if I do I will make a video and give a link to your channel, thanks again.

Your totally right about the PVC Pipe. The monsoon came through and snapped all my PVC pipes taking all my plants out with them it was a total loss

Very informative. Thank you!

This is an excellent video. Thank you for the information.

Highly informative content, thanks for the info Leon! I had no idea about the "Wiggle Wire" and was going to have a lot of wasted plastic but this will make easy install/removal a cinch! I plan to run the hightunnels between LateFeb/EarlyMar through May and October to Dec if we have things run late.

Never seen rope used over a high tunnel like that, but it makes a LOT of sense. Wind ripped up my fabric pretty quick but I bet that would have saved it. Thanks for the tip.

awesome, going to get some of those. thanks

Sounds great, Leon. 👍 A high tunnel should be 'Gothic' style in snow areas-- to prevent collapse from snow load.
