Leah another way to make sweet potatoe slips is take a sweet potatoe and prick the potatoe half way up and insert three toothpicks around the sweet potatoe as you do an avocado pip and put water in a jar and rest half of the sweet potatoe in the water and the potatoe will rest on the tooth picks above the jar and you will see slips grow here is a link https://youtu.be/WVcsY6v8HsE Your green house is coming on nicely. Glad Maarten could fix it up for you. Have a nice day.

I wish I could beam my heap of nicely matured horse manure over to you 🙂

You both work hard.

I could hear the bees when you showed the hawthorn. I’m sure flowers smelled lovely.

Any way to roll up those sides to the 1st bar🤔🤨…might help on really hot days with ventilation…. greenhouse garden is looking good

Hi Leah, I hope you are successful with your greenhouse plants as you have put a lot of thought and work into it. Well done, love your videos. Can't wait to see the outcome.

Have you thought about planting a green manure crop in your vegetable garden some time before your main crop planting? It helps to suppress weeds and you can dig it in to feed your soil, or use as a mulch. You’d have to check local conditions, of course, for the best fast-growing plants to use for this purpose. May be too late for this season though.

You have a very determined look on your face when you are working! 🌀💚🌀

I grew kumera for the first time this summer in NZ because my mother found 2 kumera that had sprouted in the back of her vege bin. I just put them in the soil and they grew. I decided to sprout another one and put it in the top of a jar with the bottom of it in the water. It sprouted very well. So maybe they need to be in contact with water or covered in damp soil. Will be interesting to see how your ones do with your method. Great greenhouse too.

That is what I do. Turn it over, lay out the fertilizer. We like chicken. Then turn it over again, then plant. You look adorable.

Commendations to Marten for using scraps of this and that from everything! Waste not, want not. Whenever I want to start a project I first inventory my shed to see what I already have on hand. Leah your tomatoes will love the heat!

Your both doing a good job, don't get discouraged, make do with what you have for now…and yes we could hear the buzzing of the bees..lol…and no we haven't got the aroma videos yet….lol..take care

Composted manure is better than non composted manure. The potential for pathogens is reduced by composting.

I'm enjoying your gardening adventure. Good luck with all the veggies and flowers 🌺

Are you going to do companion planting with your tomatoes

I have to go now bye

Great work you two wonderful parents and homesteaders. Thank you for sharing your adventure. 🇺🇸🌹

80cm is to wide. i would say: 70,40,80,40,70

Greenhouse is looking good.

Cover the sweet potatoes up all the way, and you will have great success, creating slips.

Hi guys , the Polly tunnel looks great. Hope you have a successful harvest. Can i ask if you had any problems with rodents robbing your seed potatoes? I was trying growing them in straw the no dig method but most of them have disappeared .

When you said you were going to add compost I thought you had made it yourself. It doesn't take very long

Lea are you and Martin put a lot of work into the greenhouse it looks great , I was wondering if you think if you show puck how to plant maybe three plants and then let her do the rest on her own she could help you plant a lot in the greenhouse that would save you a lot of time and she probably enjoyed immensely , keep your spirits high are you doing a great job I love to watch your videos thank you !!! 👍👍🥰🥰🪴🪴

Olá… Sweet potato put in water, then when you have vines, just plant the vines, a single potato produces many seedlings, good luck

Well done looks great you two👏👏🐞

You should opt for torx head screws 👍 No more stripping and incomplete drives where you have to push real hard. I hated that 😂

Nice job on the greenhouse Leah and maartin ..your tomato plant seedlings look great ! My tomato seedlings are doing pretty good, cucumbers not bad either , I still have them under my grow light but they may need to be put in separate pots now..do you fertilize your seedlings? I used fish fertilizer, its supposed to be real good for them..btw, as an idea, you could lay wood chips in the paths on top of the cardboard …im loving the garden/greenhouse videos as it's time to get the work done now. I like to smoke a bowl, 🤭 drink coffee and spend hrs doing garden work,..lol.. I may even clean out my shed today as it's nice out..any q&a coming up? Also how is the pond coming along? Take care, im looking forward to your next video, sure wish you did 2/week but I understand the effort it takes must be alot! Cheers🙂✌️

ugh math😁

You look cute .

JEALOUS! I love that greenhouse. I want one. Actually, I would need land to put it on..first…lol. Lea, It looks great. Can't wait to see it in a few months.

🤣 I know dutch is totally different from German. But:“ Ich kann nicht rechnen“ I understood perfectly because I have also said this many times before. The greenhouse looks great!

Hii

Bravo !! such hard work. Bless you ALL. Nice video.

You are doing such good work in garden that too with 2 children. Bravo 👏🏼. Plant cucumber on the side you get more sun and grow them vertically that will help shade and cool the green house

My tomatoes were doing so well, then one warm day and they all shriveled and died in the greenhouse!

Thank you for a lovely Sunday morning video. You really are an inspiration for people who don't have a lot of money (the majority) but have a lot of heart and willingness to live a different and truly rich life.

You can always put that shade net over the greenhouse to cool it down in the summer. Enjoy your progress. You have accomplished a lot. All the very best.

18:00 grmbl, m'n bericht verwijderd omdat je van youtube niet meer aan bronvermelding mag doen. Anyway, ik zag je paardenmest en wilde waarschuwen dat je eerst moet checken of die paarden geen gras hebben gegeten waar aminopyralid in zit (onkruidverdelger). Dat passeert nl. zonder problemen door het paard, en zit daarna nog vrolijk in die mest, waarna je groente niet groeit. Zie bijv. artikelen van Charles Dowding (en anderen dus, die ik hier niet mag linken omdat dan m'n bericht verdwijnt).

greenhouse looks promesing.

5:39 [rechtsboven bijv.] Ik zou nog ff een (stukje van een) oud washandje o.i.d. over het hout doen, daar waar het plastic erlangs schuurt. Anders scheurt daar je 'greenhouse fabric' / plastic kaput.

🌟👍🍀💐

Your drill seemed to be slipping a lot.Remember if you use phillips screws use a phillips bit ,the same for pozidriv.Always use a bit a little smaller than the screw for best results.

Fantastic job,you guys have lots of humor too ,great to watch what your doing. greetings from Australia.

👍🙏💜🧡💜🙋🏻‍♀️

My other way of operating is that of a true optimist. Many would think it is being pessimistic. Think of the worst possible things that can go wrong. If they don't happen then you have had a very productive day.
