  • So cool to see the progress. I can’t wait to see your next episode.

  • Lots of great information. The garden space is looking good. Cool to see the family working together to get the space prepared.

  • Wow that's truly awesome Kyle! Great information and well presented.... Boogie goodies are coming your way.

  • That's a lot of work. Glad you have some help, though. I'm in N.C. and have a nice piece of property I'm living on. My landlords said I could have a garden. But now they don't want me to use the water from the well, so I had to get creative and start saving rani water again. We had a lot of rain yesterday morning and my little rain barrel is full now.

  • I have never done gardening and am going through your episodes. I am absolutely drained with this episode. Is hardly making sense to me. Too many products you use. I thought gardening was simple, this is so dense

  • Great video Kyle, thanks so much! Question for you: how do you know how much compost or other nutrients you need for your given space?

  • I noticed you didn't do soil testing or anything like that before amending the soil. Are the ones you used just "standard" ones, or are they specifically for YOUR soil there?
