Hollis have you guys considered making/releasing a book simply laying out just like you have for the Norland red potatoes as you showed in the video when you sow/harvest how deep what they're good for any tips and basically doing what you did there for each crop you can feel comfortable doing so with. It seems like such a basic thing but it would be a goldmine for many of us starting off to have everything laid out so organized and in such a simple easy to understand way. Especially if you can organize the book to go from month to month as to what is good to seed or direct sow in January, then Feb, Match and so on. That would be amazing but I understand it's a big undertaking

It was all taking a bit long but in the end I succumbed to the pace. I got it! I particularly liked the the real time and even more the diagram sessions. It was therapeutic. ANd the harvest spoke for itself. A variety of size to be enjoyed for its flavour at any one meal. I think potatoes are extremely versatile in terms of ways to prepare and cook. Hollis' premis to all of this is to teach his grandchildren the basic skills of cultivation, observation of nature, survival ...and patience. What a great document of the cycle of life. In my opinion there is often too much emphasis on forcing a crop out of the ground when we should be concentrating on allowing the plant to mature according to natures time table. The reward is reaped in the flavour and nutrition. Nancy and Hollis I almost fell in love with you both watching you grow with your plants and harvest them. In the end it is about love...and you have lots. Hats off to you both. I will be imparting as much of your lessons to my children and Grandchildren as I can.

4’ wide is what we have. That allows for hilling and easy when harvesting. 2’ in my opinion would be too narrow. Plants would hang out of the bed and it would be difficult to hill. 👍

Hi Nancy and Hollis! 2 things. 1)God Bless you both for your wonderful videos you are such an inspiration to me. I can't do all the heavy work (Diabetes, COPD, CKD and heart disease. 2) Nancy, Could you PLEASE, PLEASE do some canning videos. No good putting in all the work if you can't store your yield! Lol😂 I want to do the bucket methods. I'm in Port St Lucie Florida I don't know how much different it is here compared to your area looks like you may be in my old neck of the woods, Madison Florida. Thanks and God Bless you both praying for your health and happiness🎉

Hollis and Nancy You inspire me. I weeded my pots this morning Praising God. When I pull weeds I ask God to pull the sin out of me and to help Godly characteristics grow in me instead. Potatoes are ready for me to add more layer of Dirt. I live in Land O Lakes Florida. Visiting you is on my bucket list. We made reservations in Weekewatchee Florida Neptune's Garden a small old fish camp. We have plans to go scalloping July First. My husband Eddie just purchase a small boat. clean some fish and throw the bones and shells in my garden. Thanks for your encouragement. PS Mac Daddy is a small engine repair shop so if you need tiller work we would be happy to barter. We also service ATV and Mowers, and Pressure washers. Tamara Griffin

Hollis, I saw you using a lifting belt. If you're suffering from back pain, you should start doing ab exercises. I'm a tradesman (tile setter). There are days I spend 8+ hours on my knees bending over. The next day it hurts so bad it takes me an hour to loosen up enough to just move around, and then the pain is with me all day at work. Well, I started doing leg lifts for about 5 minutes in the evening, and now I can wake up and work all day setting floor tile (or gardening) without any back pain. The morning after your first exercise, you'll be amazed at how much better you feel, and as time goes on, you won't have any more back pain! Try it. It works. I want you guys good and healthy so that we can keep enjoying your gardening videos for a long, long time! Thanks for everything. Much love! ❤ God bless! 🙏
