I love your videos and when I was a kid in Colorado USA I won a blue ribbon for my tomatoes. I still brag about that at 58. My mother made me eat a spoonful of dirt at the beginning of the planting season as she said her mother had done to her. It was terrible and didn't help with the poor results she had as a gardener. I , however have wanted my whole life to get back to my green thumb success of my youth. My wife and I live in San Francisco and have a decently large back yard, We inherited her parents property in japan (she is from there) and it has about 2 acres of land. We want to retire there and I want to start a semi large garden, that may also help us with some income. So I finally during the corona virus lockdown started my training in my own back yard here in San Francisco. First project was a raised garden bed:Then I replaced the roof on my back porch and realized I could build a small greenhouse there. So my current project is that greenhouse, so next season I will be able to grow seedling. I also will enjoy having sald and herbs just outside the back door. You Tube is a fabulous place to learn how to garden and your videos are so important to my beginning fumble finger attempts. I have never built anything, but I think I did pretty good on the raised bed. Thanks for your patients for reading all this... Haha I am so excited. I stay up late every night watching gardening Videos.
