A compilation of several short video clips taken over the last three weeks as I harvested and preserved my garden produce as well as a look at my new little …

@des4maisons Thank you and you are welcome.
@GulfCoastJaguarundi Thanks. I’ m sure there will be many chicken videos. I
won’t be getting them until next summer though. I will only have a half
dozen bantams but I can hardly wait. I had hens years ago 30 to 40 at a
time and I have wanted to have them again for many years now.
That looks like a fun little chicken coop. I think I’m going to build a ton
more fence next year so my chickens can free range without getting in my
garden. I have two new hens now. I don’t think they’ve laid me any eggs
yet, though.
@wildshotsintheair Thanks for all of the kind words. I’m not interested in
showing chickens I just love having them around more pets than anything the
eggs are just a nice bonus. If you go to my Channel page there is a set of
27 videos almost 3 hours worth called, Le Coup – my Chicken Coop and
Chickens, lots of footage of the coop and the birds there.
we are suppose to have rain today then our cold front comes this weekend =)
nice work !
Not boring at all, really great video! Until next year, thanks again!
@DCARA06 Thanks. Can’t wait till i have hens in the coop.
@ttitanic121 Thank you very much. I feel very bad about loosing the
potatoes haha. Glad I participated too otherwise I would have never know
that I can grow tomatoes and cucumbers in the house.
Thank you.
Looks great Dale!! You are all set for the winter. I love the hen coop.
Such a warm fall. Probably good that you got everything in before this
crazy rain we are having.
I am going to try that tuscan kale this year. I hope mine turn out as good
as yours.
thanks for the video, I didnt find it boring or lengthy at all, i found it
very intersting, and informative. wish it was longer ,looks like you have
fun and keep your self busy. hope you do a video on your Banty chickens, ,
i like those alot, will you raise them for show? id like too see them and
yoru new chicken coop also. lol thanks.
Pretty nice set up, beat our little patch to shame!
What a great chicken coop! Thanks for the vid!
@Watsamadoing Thank you. I agree you could build something much larger for
the same amount of money. There are several coops that look like this one
for a lot more money I paid $300 for this and it is very basic and too
small. I’ll find uses for it and it will be okay for summer use but I would
never keep chickens in this little thing during our winter. I’ve been
looking at plans on the Internet because I will have to build a proper coop
next summer.
Very much enjoyed watching your vids over this past year! Although we
didn’t attain the “Big Prize” (a can of potatoes)lol…I know we had fun in
trying…Happy Gardening Dale & Thanks again for the interesting &
informative videos.
@1965blaze I guess we have rain tonight and then high wind and heavy rain
tomorrow.
Enjoyed your video Dale, what sort of light do you have on your cucumber
plants? I am amazed by the cucumber growth inside.. very cool!
You did a lot better with you beets than I did. What I got was tasty but
small and not many. Great looking carrots! They are good eating, fresh
picked. What kinds did you grow? Very nice chicken coop. Appears to be made
of Cedar, one of my favorite woods. Will all of that cabbage make just one
batch of kraut? I’ll be interested in how that goes and might try it myself
next year. Indoor cukes are marvelous. Sorry to see the end of your garden.
I’ve enjoyed watching. Regards, Gary
Super update! Beetroot – I grow one called Bolthardy and it is very
reliable in our cool, wet summers and frost tolerant. Carrots – those
looked great, I can grow even smaller carrots than you. Kale and cabbages –
didn’t they sound lovely? Hen house – lovely job, I hope to get hens next
year. Cucumbers – well done! Best Wishes, Brendan (sent a message as well)
@baconsoda Thank you I just finished shredding the cabbage and starting my
sauerkraut. I used to have hens years ago and I have wanted to have them
again for some time now, so I’m excited at the prospect even though it will
only be a few Bantams. Not looking forward to the long winter without a
garden. Dale
@julzbo Thanks but I wasn’t happy with it. It’s far too lite and small,
blew over twice last winter, fortunately no hens in it. I’m in the middle
of building a coop now 8 feet by 8 Feet I will put up a video of that one
when I finish.
awesome this is an inspiration!
@SquareFootGardening5 Thank you very much for the kind words. I get a great
deal of pleasure from the garden. It’s always a sad day when the season
ends our winters are so long it will be the end of May before I can plant
seedlings in the garden again. Some early crops like peas, chard, spinach
can be sown in early May. In April I will start growing seedlings under
lights though.
@dianemummvideos Thank you, it’s a two tier light garden with three full
spectrum tubes in each tier, I bought it from veseys(dot)com a couple of
years ago my only regret is that I didn’t buy the three tier. I see they
still feature it on the website front page. Very cheap to run the tubes are
low wattage. I start most of my seedlings with it in the spring.
