I LOVE garden tours. A person could be like, "Look at my garden!" And show me a solitary carrot sprout in the ground, and I would be like,"You're crushing it! I love it!". Never feel self-conscious of your gardens, big or small, folks. You're doing great! Jaques: You're garden is EPIC

I would really like a flower tour. Most of the flowers I can identify but the ones I can't, either you don't mention or I'm distracted when you do 😂.
You and the epic channel are my favorites. I watch every day and I’m going to be so sad when I run out of content and have to wait for new videos! lol I have learned so much from you guys I appreciate you very much. I want to make garden content and teach people what I’ve learned.

Kind of funny I feel like I needed a “spoiler alert” when I saw your California poppies. My sister sent me some for Christmas and I planted them and have been waiting to see what they look like in bloom. 😂 lovely 😊
Once I finally get my green house built (still in the box several years later...) I'm going to put my greenstack in there and fill it with strawberries thanks to watching you! I've got a small basket of them that I fight the squirrels for even though it's got netting and hung off the ground about 4 feet - I love fresh strawberries and didn't know what to do until I saw you had them in your green house after you got it. Love the garden tour - thanks for sharing!!

I started sorrel in a pot 4 years ago and although I chop it back regularly it still grows like a weed. Great to add to salads, but I like to puree it with olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper to make a nice sauce for fish. Like you I'm looking forward to one of the best garden years ever!

I loved the tour of your garden Jacques! You are very inspiring to fellow gardeners. Here in Plymouth, UK, we are a little behind you when it comes to planting veggies. My tomatoes have just started to produce their first flower stalks and my cucumbers have just produced their first true leaves. I have however, managed to harvest over 1Kg of spinach beets. I'll be picking my Field Beans at the end of the month. Manage Tout and Peas are growing well and should start to harvest them in about a weeks time. Thank you once again.

If you only have one or two vines you can mix 1 part milk to 4 parts water and spraying every couple weeks it will kill downy mildew

I actually planted 3 sisters this year, and I've gotta say, it really depends on the bean. I planted all my seeds at once (time constraints and all) and some of my beans are being far outpaced by my corn, and some of my beans i can tell are going to need poles until the corn can catch up. And maybe it's my zone or my varieties, but my winter squash are moving very slowly. Corn is outpacing them with no problem.

Jacques, your garden is absolutely THRIVING! Everything looks so healthy. I also love your native garden, especially the one under the window. Manzanita is one of my favorite native plants, followed by Ceanothus. Which type of Ceanothus did you plant? The smell of the flowers is wonderful, and the bees love it. We have Hummingbird Sage, which will spread on its own, and the flower stalks are fantastic, however be prepared to stake them because they frequently are so heavy that they flop over.

Hey Jacques. The garden looks amazing. How are you keeping squirrels, raccoons, skunks, etc out of your garden?
✋ Love your channel, love your videos. It would be really helpful if you gave watering tips while wandering through your beds - like what kind of drip, for how long do they run, why you choose these over others, how many gpm and for how long ... AND as a bonus, how do you control gophers for the in ground beds? Thanks Jacques .... PS - I know there are countless videos that are stand-alone watering tips but showing how choice in action is really so much more revealing ... like I was trying to figure out on the first shot - are those sq ft gardening drip lines? are they 1/2" that you poked holes in or were they pre-drip like 1/4" .... why no specific emmiters if it's converted 1/2" - you see, besides the glory of the summer plants, there's all these questions about how to get there ....again, thank you Jacques! 💝
