  1. I planted my first veggie garden. I'm so excited about it also it will keep my mind busy during all this. You tought me everything I'm doing I'm so excited thank you for everything you do😊

  2. Do you put holes in the bottom of those bins? I’d like to plant Lettuce, Eggplant, Spinach, Plum Tomatoes, Peppers, and some Herbs.

  3. Love your garden and birds and animals Robbie. They bring a lot of comfort at this time. Look forward to your midnight teas. My neighbors and I met in the street tonight, 10 feet from each other of course with a beverage of our choice, just to get fresh air! 14 of us. It helped!!

  4. The staying in does not bother me. It is what comes after when the economy may falls. It is scary. I am staying in and cleaning. I can only grow a little army place. I am not being wasteful. Keep your mind busy. Pray Psalm 91 over your home.

  5. Would love to see how you bake different things using zucchini. Thanks. Learning a lot from you especially the compost-in-place. Take care.

  6. Thanks Robbie, I would love to tune in and watch and listen to you and Gary as you cook or talk or whatever. You two do have a calming presence and I appreciate it. Thanks to your tips I have a bunch of hummingbirds living with us. I keep 5 large feeders filled every 3rd day. Not sure how many hummers we have but must be quite a few to empty the feeders so often. I've decided to keep my small beautiful holiday tree up instead of putting it away until next Christmas. It's full of decorative birds and other pretty things and really cheers me up. Gardening is therapy for sure and we love the results.

  7. Stir crazy stir fry night. Sounds good already. I have snow peas. Who can bring the baby corn?

  8. I've been direct composting – I have a bowl full everyday! Feels good not going into the landfill and my plants will be healthier. I found some microgreens at dollar general and am planting them for the window sill.

  9. Robbie inspired as always! Any video you make I will watch. I love your cooking video's and would love to see his you harvest and use your mint. My daughter (16) is in love with mint tea and is waiting for a friend to give her starts of 3 varieties and she is so excited! Bless you lady! Prayers for peace!

  10. People who are staying home for long periods need to remember to run their vehicles to keep their batteries charged.

  11. It will get better, watch Weekend Warrior Celebs and the corona virus part 2, it will explain what's going on. Good things are in our future.

  12. Hi again Robbie; It's not cool down here yet although technically autumn & I spend most of my life at home under the air-con (which is playing up) due to chronic illness, so not much has changed for me. Well except for running out of toilet roll because of arseholes hoarding it. Went to 4 or 5 shops with empty shelves, then my son reached out to a work contact as I'm immuno-suppressed & he didn't wan't me out there getting ill. My neighbourhood has a high population of aged, disabled & low income ppl, so most here don't have money to hoard, then when it gets to pay day there's nothing on the shelves for them. Good news is one supermarket addressed hoarding by only admitting ppl for the 1st hour of the day who hold our govt-issued ID cards that identify you as aged, disabled, or poor. Anyone with big money now has to wait til after that hour lol. Nice to see some good news isn't it? A big supermarket acting like part of the community they're in. BTW Robbie, do remember that your mint tea refreshes because it's a stimulant, so be thoughtful about the varieties & quantities of herbs you're taking while feeling fraught.Don't want you to be feeling worse, do we? 😵 😱Love & best wishes from Adelaide SA

  13. Thanks for doing your videos. They are wonderful during “normal” times but REALLY wonderful now. Life goes on even during the darkest times and you are definitely a light bringer.

  14. Thankyou Robbie for your video I feel like I am visiting a much loved friend when I watch you. I have learnt so much from the way you grow things.

  15. Do you have any mosquito issues in your garden? We have them really bad every year. I don’t want to spray anything that will kill the pollinators. We also have a lot of trees and birds in our yard. Any suggestions? Also, have seen a huge difference in my garden since composting in place!

  16. I had a big problem with garden pests last year. I do things organically. I pulled up the plants and trashed them to help get rid of the bugs. I have several huge pots of soil that I know has their eggs and possibly the hibernating bugs in them. One is spider mites. I hate to throw away all this potting soil. Any ideas on what to do without having to throw the soil out?

  17. I was looking for you Robbie! You seemed so down in the last vid i was worried boutcha….hang in there . We are in it together! Im a bottled water person…i got a faucet attached filter so my tap water is a bit cleaner.

  18. I’m not bored. May I share some words that are comforting and encouraging to me? Jesus promises to give us the gift of peace. In the book of John in the Bible, Jesus says in John 14:27, “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” Also, Philippians 4:4, Rejoice in the lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! Verses 6 and 7, Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Jesus loves and cares for each of us as if we were the only person in the world for whom He gave His life and if we ask Him He will keep us in His hand and heart. He knows the future. We may trust Him. Take care. Blessings

But after seeing you i felt inside, yes i can do it too. so i am pumped. but , discourage, because i am starting from scratch, having to buy stuff for it, on a very low income, because the snags ,i know will work out, its still early, here i am from north carolina

  22. Hey Magic Lady! I tuned in to watch your hummingbird vids, listening to you always inspires me and makes me feel better. I am starting vegetables plants to give to whoever wants them. Starting late but hoping they will help someone. Much light and love to everyone! Stay hygenic! Just saw your Hershey's mint! 😄❤️

  23. Happy to see your container gardening. I have both, it gives me such a break from everything else just having all the plants, veggies, fruit etc to work with. Hang in there.

  24. Very beautiful, thank you for sharing, blessings,be positive, nothing is forever.😘😘🤗🤗🤗🤗

  25. Can you keep chocolate mint in water that has boiled on cabinet or refrigerator. I can't get no stevia seeds orplants

  26. Ok here I am watching you video and I really feel like those hallmark movies are nothing but love stories using Christmas as a backdrop . I'd really like to see stories built around compassion . I love your gardening programs a lot of the others are either expensive additives , pots , or seeming heavy maintenance . I also would like to hear how much sun and watering schedules . Like daily or otherwise.
