How to Start Growing Your Own Food | What to Focus on First

Keep it growing brother:) Thanks for your wise words and work.

Hi. Okay, do YOU cook with your veg. harvest or does someone else ? Maybe some basic simple recipes. Garden to table. Love your videos. Peace to you and yours

My peas in the garden are doing well, but I also have another crop indoors. I'm on my 3rd harvest of pea shoots, salad and egg mayonnaise are favourite. I chop them into 2 inch pieces. My salad micro greens are not really big enough yet to harvest yest, but there are at least 2 more croppings of pea shoots..... Don't BUY lettuce, grow pea shoots :D

I have a pet rabbit. Can i use its bedding and litter as mulch or compost. Thank you

Huw! After being very much encouraged watching your "pea sprouting by the windowsill" video, we did an immediate attempt, still using one container full in the kitchen- the soaking the peas worked AMAZINGLY! And they shot so quickly- it was a great victory to start our journey off with! Two days ago planted out the other container of pea seedlings and they live😄! Have put spring onions with them- will that work ok?

Just love the friendliness and warmth between the gardening channels seen here💟🌿 !

You are my absolute favorite gardening show!!

Thank you, Huw. I enjoy all your videos, but this one particularly resonated with me. Those small successes really help to push you through the failures (and there will be failures!). I’ve seen Kevin’s video, too, and thought it was great, but I love your idea about the pea shoots. I will definitely give that a try!

Thank you Huw for your encouragement! So many things to think about as a novice gardener. Some of my seeds are sprouting and others are not yet showing themselves. Looking forward to starting your course.

Hello. I am learning from and enjoying your videos. I have a question. At the end of this video, i saw to the bottom left of your gardens a garden spot that was planted diagonally (it seems). What is the benefit of planting diagonally versus planting in rows lined up with the edge of the garden? Thanks for your thoughts.

Where is ur accent from ?

lovely video Huw, I totally agree that a small success with growing and then eating your own food can get you hooked! I am now enthralled! Trying to grow veg all year round for the first time!

Not strictly about veg but I am new to this and I have a question about composting
I no sawdust/woodshavings are a good carbon source but what about used woodshavings from pet bedding? obviously its been used so most of its not dry do you think this would be suitable to add? thanks for any responses

This guy is a master gardener, where is he located NZ or UK ? What growing zone ?

I have noticed in past videos, but thought I'd let you know the moss that grows on your raised bed boards is delightful. It speaks of continuity in your endeavors and feels peaceful.

Awesome update Huw lovely update and tips

My name is Kenny from northern Kentucky look up the history of biochar good for gardening pass it on

Another great vid, thankyou.. Do you harden off onions before transplanting into garden? regards Bill

I'm pretty sure you can also do this with broad beans. The whole plant is edible.

This was great, plenty of advice. Pea shoots are very tasty 😋👍🏼🌿

Here in N FL it is already way too hot to plant green peas outside, we've already had quite a few days in the 90s. But I bet I could do the pea shoots inside where it's cooler, so I just ordered a large organic bag off of Amazon. They sound delicious, wish me luck!

Wonderful!!

Wow. I started with epic gardening shady vid. Watched for a second time now i found a shady bed to use. Looked for more shady plants and found you. Thanks for the list. Epic you need to list them like Huw. Cool thanks guys. You both rock

The coming economic crisis is what brings me here. I hope its not going to get as bad but then we will have free food so. Yeah.

Great video!

I think gardening is always in my DNA, I got it from my Dad. Now that I live in a far city from Him, gardening makes me always feel connected with my Dad

Nice, as per usual.

Brilliant advice as allways Huw.

im just getting in to gardening and huw is giving me so many amazing tips on everything , i would recommend him over and over again.

Thank you Huw for another inspiring video. I ' m a beginning gardener, presently constructing my raised beds. I have a question. Do a see it right that your raised beds are based on a slope? They seem not to be levelled. Is that correct, is that a problem?

Two of my favourite gardener channels !! Whoop whoop.

Can you eat the leaves around the garden peas? Will they taste just like pea shoots?

Another inspiring vid, Huw. Thanks. Paul

Really great psychology and so important.

First of all I'm so interested in gardening but haven't started yet. What is the best time to start gardening

I watch this to make sure when the inevitable apocalypse happens I can make my own food

great video. Informative and great editing for capturing attention!

You’re so right about peas, can’t beat that fresh flavour. Love them in salads in the summer. 💕

Which compost is the best to buy?

❤️

Wow 🥺

This is a nice video.

Great video but did anyone else see something wrong about the way he pulled the potatoes from the ground? Were they already uprooted and plopped back down on the soil for the shot?

I started just in case a zombie apocalypse happens.

My dad has a big garden every year, and fresh peas are the thing that inspired me to have a garden too, so my kids can have that experience of eating fresh peas together in the sunshine.

Thanks! Appreciate you.

I am a native new yorker and i think all humans should be able to grow there own food it should be taught in school as early junior high school, our high school it should be mandatory to be honest, god for bid a natural disaster where to occur and all the super markets be wiped out what happens than to those of us who dont know how to grow food.
