Janey giving us the dirt on our dirt! This was amazing info and we’re so lucky you’re willing to share your diligent notes! I’ll probably be watching this a few times! Thank you!

Janey, thanks so much for mentioning this playlist today! I'm excited but a little nervous about starting the MGV training here in Florida this summer and this is just what I need to get myself ready!!

Oh my gosh Janey, so interesting! Thank you for sharing all this.

I’m on the “No Till” side as well. 😂 As tilling also brings up the weed seeds that none of us want! 😊

This was SO good. Not boring AT ALL. Thank you so much. After following you for a little shy of the year, I have come to realize you are a very good teacher. 🥰

This was so interesting and informative I bookmarked it to watch over and over to absorb it! Thank you!

How great! So interesting and gives me so much to consider with my large desert garden. Gravel is fairly essential with large desert gardens (which I dislike, but….) So gravel compaction is REAL….and just part of the gardening process here. I own a hand held pick axe 😂 who knew?

Oh wow! So much information, my mind would be smoking, lol 😂😂! Thanks for sharing so much information that you are learning Janie!

Thank You Janey!!!😊 I took MG classes in TN, and got my certificate in Dec. 2022. I love these reviews you are doing!

Wow! Thank you so much professor 😊. Loving this and I know you are enjoying your class. I’m looking forward to following you thru this next level of gardening.

Love this Janey, I’m just down the causeway in Gold River so all this info is great!

Really interesting and much more to consider regarding soil. I will sign up to instagram for more info, Thanks Janey!

You are obliviously a good student!! Sounds like you are loving ever minute of your classes. Thank you for sharing. You are on the fast track to being a Master Gardner.

Thx Jannie!

Thank you for the continuing info. You answered my question,already about if you can add too much organic matter. We add homemade compost,and also put mulch on our garden. Relieved to hear we cannot over do it. I knew about not working wet soil, and it is really aconcern here in IL, Spring and Fall rains, with wanting to plant or dig bulbs!

Hello. God bless you. This is good information. How did you get those Proven Winners annual flower plants? I want to get some.

Hi Janey 🌺 good information about soil , I love your explanation and they are very interesting lessons . Have awonderful day ⚘️🌺⚘️

Thank you for sharing such valuable information. I must make a cheat sheet for myself as this is loads of dirt for my garden.

Janey, Thank you for sharing all this information with us. I have my book and will be following along. Thanks for everything.

This was really interesting, love hearing the explanation of the leaves coloring. This course is going to be very interesting, glad you mentioned all the reading, honestly not sure I could keep up with it, I'm looking to buy the book tho. Where I live, there's thousands of farm acres around me, the farmer stopped til here some 25-30 yrs ago now. About no dig, if anyone is really interested in learning more, please go watch Charles Dowding's channel, he's in England, no dig gardening 40+ yrs.

new to your channel, that was a good presentation of the materials from your class! interesting and informative! thank you!

I loved this. Building up good soil is similar to building a home with a good foundation. Janey you did an amazing job of presenting this information in an easy and clear way. I know so much more now and can appply everything you shared. Thank you!

I've always just had raised beds here in CA. Never bothered with the native soil!

Thanks Jennie, this was very informative, great video. I live in central Florida and we call our soil sugar sand. It doesn’t retain any nutrients so we have to use a lot of amendments.

I loved this. So much information to think about. My dad has had beautiful vegetable gardens all my life and he is a till believer and loves his 13-13-13. It has always worked for him here in south central Texas. Interesting to hear of all this new knowledge to me.

I enjoyed listening to all the information. My Grandpa always said not to work the soil when it was wet. I hope you have a wonderful day.

This is great. Glad you are sharing!

This was so informative and interesting. I have been gardening over 50 years and about 30 years of no till mostly. Have been learning so many things from you tube the last few years. It is so exciting to see other ideas and learning why. Thank you!

So interesting Janey, thank you for sharing all your classes with us 💕

After 24” of rain on our property with the CA atmospheric rivers we had, we won’t be able to plant for months!!

Good information! I have forgotten so much of.

Hi Janey, you are such a great teacher ! 😊🌸❤️🇨🇦

Great explanation if soil pH!

Very interesting! Thanks for the information 🚜M

Wow!!! Just the amount of info you shared with all of us, all I have to say so much to try and retain in my brain. Sounds like it was very interesting. Thank you for sharing with us and now you have a wonderful day and enjoy your reading.

Love the info. Sooo interesting. I’m thinking you’re going to look at your existing garden with new eyes.

Great recap of your class, especially considering how complex the subject was! How long is the actual class? I took a 1/2 day class about soil, and I was absolutely fascinated. There is soooo much to know about soil and the helpful critters that inhabit it. There is a wonderful movie called "The Biggest Little Farm" that follows a couple who purchase a farm that has laid fallow for a long time, and the soil was completely depleted. The long and short of it is that they bring it back to life using biodiversity methods. If you have not seen it, I highly recommend it. If you have healthy soil, you can grow almost anything. 💐

Thank you for sharing what you've learned! I think I've found out why my house plant is yellowing. Keep it up!

Wow crazy about the tilling ! How long have they been doing studies about it because it all made since !! You think of farmers back in the day that tilled with there horses ❤

You are awesome for sharing. My soil is crappy. Been trying to nudge it along. Sure loving your backdrop/closet?area. Beautiful like you.🌸

Nice❤❤👍👍

Thanks for sharing! I actually found the discussion about tilling very interesting because I’ve watched a good amount of those guys on KZread and I believed the information they were putting out so I’m pretty much no till myself. But it is nice to hear the info from someone who doesn’t have “skin in the game” so to speak.

Love this!!! I took notes from your video…. Could you show us your book sometime?!!

Lol if I never touched the soil when it was wet or planted when the soil was wet I'd never be able to plant a single plant in my garden lol. It's rains a lot in the uk! The soil is always wet 😂 And I mean it rains a lot here.

I'm way over in Arkansas and start the MG program in Oct. Unfortunately (or fortunately) it is an online program. Good in that I can do it at my pace, bad because I won't be able to interact with an instructor "live". However this may also be good, because I'm likely to disagree frequently, or at least point out "holes" in the information. Such as, with soil. I'd start out with focusing on the life in the soil (or it's lack thereof) being at least as important as all the chemical and physical attributes, as in the end, soil isn't soil, without life. It's just dirt. I'm not interested in doing outdoor hydroponics (commercial ag), But we'll see if I can hold my tongue.

Hi Everyone 🥰

Really interesting learning not to disturb the soil when wet. How long do you think you’re going to wait until you plant things after our atmospheric rivers?

Very informative. Thank you! Do you still use your Lomi? I have been and would love any tips you have learned along the way :)

I’d like to know how to fix deficiencies

There are whole degree programs for soil science, so I suspect that might be one of the most difficult class days 🤞🏻. I really need to get a soil test done, but I keep putting it off because it seems so complicated.

This super helped me understand my trouble with my soil. I have a new build where it was a farmer's field. The developer removed the top soil. I'm left with sand and lots of pine trees. I'm in Northern Minnesota. I'll have to take drastic measures to make anything grow. Ugh
