Water, nutrients, sunlight and air. Long ago the 4 nations lived together in Harmony. Then everything changed when the sunlight nation attacked. Only the avatar, master of all 4 elements could stop them. But when the world needed him the most, he vanished. One hundred years have passed, and my brother and I found the new avatar an water bender named Kevin, although all his bening skills are great, he has to practice a lot to prevent the world to die from hunger. (Avatar is Kevin, sunlight attack = climate change)

A couple calendars said Sept 19, one said Oct 8, and a local woman on the news says she does hers over the winter here in like Dec-Feb. I don't know! I'm not from Houston and the weather is wigging me out.

I installed a hoselink on by back tap about 10 years ago..., I was that happy with it I have now installed them on all of my taps on my own hose and our rental property. Just sooooo easy to keep everything tidy and as an added bonus extends the life of the hose by not being run over or left in the elements.

Best gardening decision I ever made was putting my drip irrigation on an automatic timer. It’s really adjustable for the season and plants’ needs, and it waters for me, without me needing to thinking about it or even needing to be home. It’s let me travel, sleep in, forget, and recover from gardening fatigue without sacrificing my plants. Without a doubt, best $30 I’ve ever spent.

We've run over them with tractors, trucks, had the livestock smash them into the ground; they're still kicking ass and taking names. 0 kinks, 0 issues. We've had them about 3 years now. Never had to replace. I love'em.

Was that a durian and dragon fruit shirt you had on? Awesome! :) Thanks for the watering tips. I'm new to gardening and sad to say that I need to consciously get on top of watering my plants. Watering early in the day works for me. I check the soil by sticking my finger in it and water my container plants if they need it. I also employ your "water, wait and water" technique.

Got to you via Self Sufficient Me, and bought Birdies beds x 2, so now it's time to get a proper garden hose. We've had 2 years of drought here, so water efficiency has been a high priority, and I've nearly lost a few plants because I wasn't on the ball. Definitely going to get a drip system installed, to see if I can prevent that next drought. So thanks for a fantastic episode :-)

I live in Australia, I am trying to grow vegetables in fabric pots, but I have a hard time with the lack of sun because of the house shading the backyard so I am always chasing the sun by moving my pots from the back to the front, if I move my plants I think they are getting around 5 hours of sun if I'm lucky. I am worried that the plants are not going to get enough sunshine to grow properly. This is in winter, so it will change more in Summer I hope. I am always learning from your show and I have purchased your book. I am also growing seeds inside with heat pads and plant light as well they are growing well.

I have 6 kids, including my 3 month old AND my 2 year old, and if I want to get anything done outside, I need to wake up while everyone in the house is snoring😴. I also water everything with a regular cheap hose (not too happy about it) 😒. I hope to invest in drip line next season. The grass clippings are my lifesavers! 🤗They retain the moisture well and make my watering duties a little easier considering that in my zone 8b the temps are at 98F by 9am!!!😳

Great video! I've switched over to the brass and aluminum quick connectors you use on our 5 acre farm with a number of yard hydrants (to get water out to the livestock), so I've purchased quite a number of those things. I always install a shut-off valve ahead of the quick connectors; I like the Gilmour aluminum ones that have a full bore (instead of some of the plastic ones which only have about 1/4" opening) to allow the maximum amount of water flow.

Got something like the hoselink for 15 meters (45 feet) and its the best investment ever, I absolutely love it! No more rolling up a hose when it got a bit wet and gets dirt all over your hands etc. Though mine pulls a bit harder once it retracts lol. For city/rainwater it depends on what you get, rainwater lacks minerals while city water usually doesn't, my home for example gets its water from a nearby dam so we get untreated and relatively soft water, which is great for both aquariums and the garden but if you are unsure about which one you might get either call your water supplier or go to the local fish store and get your water tested (usually for free)! But as always, try to catch as much rainwater (if it's legal in your area) in barrels as you can, I still have to set a couple up but damn, 300 liters (80 gallons) are gone quickly with 3 beds...

Love the videos first of all. Just want to not correct you, but let you know that the actual name of what you call a "splitter" is a wye. If, like yours at the faucet, has valves in it it would be known a a gated wye, if there are no valves it is just a wye. Also, great rule of thumb for where I've lived anyway for water amounts needed for in ground plants, not in containers, is roughly a total of 2" per week during the active growing season. I also prefer to water even tomatoes daily during the super hot spells, frequent shallower watering seems to keep the roots and soil cooler, and help prevent blossom drop when the temperatures are 90-95 degrees or higher.

Will you be able to collect rainwater off your roofs throughout the year? I currently collect with about a 700 gallon capacity and am taking a serious look at adding a 1200 gallon tank with a more complete guttering system on the house. The greenhouse collects and holds its own water for the year and works as a heat sink during the winter as well. Once the 1200 gallon tank is installed a water pump will remove the watering can method of watering I currently use. I mention this as you are early on in setting up your new homestead for the long term.

Love the tips and the series. I like a lot that in many of the latest tips/mistakes/questions videos you're featuring the cucumber plant - I have a cucumber that I cannot get to produce and I keep following yours around seeing if it gets as bad as mine and what you're doing about it :)) Mine gets a lot of new green and healthy-looking leaves at the top, even flowers and fruit... but immediately under the top ones the "old" leaves and fruit turn yellow and rot. And in a couple of weeks new leaves and fruit appear on the top and the ones I've been praising get yellow and rotting again... and I don't really know what to do... I have a long yellow-ish stem with dead leaves and dead fruit and a few hopeful ones on top which I know will perish soon.

Have you ever used a watering spike hooked up to a 2L bottle? I've got them throughout my garden beds and they work great. I usually add in a general surface water to make sure all the plants have something, in case the water isn't spreading enough below ground. I live in a pretty dry region with some pretty hot days during the summer, so things dry out pretty badly if I'm not careful.

Hey Kevin, Epic shirt you are wearing 👌🏻👌🏻. I don’t know if you follow Garden Answer or not; they have been using hoselink for a few years now. It seems like the best product out there, so far.

Hi Kevin, I'm loving your shirt! You should have merchandise.....t- shirts, caps and mugs with your Epic Gardening logo on them, plus some leaves, passion fruit, flower etc. Your bok choy is doing so well. I love me some bok choy. I will put that on my list for next year. Have a nice day. 🌸

@@epicgardening Suggestion 1) make sure that you get women's V-neck T's (some of us refuse to wear a crew cut T-👕). 2) Would you consider reaching out to Christian the Crazy Plant Guy? He lives in Canada and has merchandise. You could ask him about his supplier and check out the quality of his products? Good luck with your search.

Great tips . . . loved the tool suggestions as well. Thanks, Kevin. Water here is really good and cheap. My bill is between 6 to 15 bucks a month, depending on the season.

Listen. This is my first time gardening. Started a little late-planted mid July and it’s been a learning experience. But now I’m that person. I’ve fallen in love with my plants. They’re like my children. And now, this man and his knowledge/ love for his plants is sexy lol. Now I follow him on Instagram, and am subscribed here. Every video I see makes me like him more. 😆 Aaaattractive.

Those sprinkler heads have a tendancy to become blocked over time in my city. We have hard water, so I tend to monitor them every month under operation and if I suspect it is becoming blocked I fully open them. This should clear out the blockage before I reset them. Also, any adjustments of one sprinkler will affect the flow at the other sprinklers.
