In this video I will show you how I am preparing the vegetable garden for spring. This includes weeding, removing dead plants, planning for new crops, mulching and other jobs to prepare for spring in the organic vegetable garden. Plus a huge show on what I found while doing the prep work.

  1. Awesome to see you Fixen get fired up. I just joined up in January. I felt bad when I watched your videos everything looked so established. Now I see you have the restarts just like this ole Texas gardener does.

  2. What zone are you in? Nice to see so many things beautiful in the garden right after winter. Mine looks mostly brown 😆

  3. Very informative. Thank you. I’ll try this coming winter to move pepper plants to greenhouse

  4. 😂Sweet Potato on steroids! I am up in N CA 9b and I took your advice and overwintered my beloved Serrano peppers can't wait to see what happens! Thank you Brian

  5. I over wintered 1 pepper and 1 eggplant. Both are starting to take off growing again. I had to bring mine inside though.

  6. Save those dandelions, they are great greens to add to salads! I have a bed dedicated to only varieties of dandelions!

  7. All solanide plant and roots should be removed, completely away from the garden. Solanide toxicity into the ground soil, let alone rotting and further detrimental toxins into the garden bed is not desirable. Pull all eggplant, tomatoes, and potatoes that have died – or being deliberately removed – whether small or large rooted. Just like living and dying tomato plants that are rotting with fungal et al infestation – having embedded roots furthers all this fungal, mildew, and mold growths within the soil. Not healthy and not desirable. If you yank – then yank everything. If you can overwinter and keep a perennial potato, eggplant, and tomato plant – then make sure everything of the plant (trunk, branches, leaves, AND ROOTS are healthy and strong and no fungal infections.

  8. Will you be putting down weed mat and wood chips on your garden path? It might save you some time on weeding

  9. Love your channel! I’m a novice gardener who is very grateful that you share your knowledge. I’m learning so much! Thank you 🙏

  10. Have you ever had invasive tree roots grow into your raised beds? I recently discovered tree roots in our raised beds. Do you have any recommendations? Cheers!

  11. BRIAN, SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU. YES YOU ALWAYS INSPIRE US. ❤ PRAYING FOR YOU BRIAN, EMILY, AND NOAH. LOVE YALL ❤

  12. I know what you mean when you say it's been so rainy you haven't been out in the garden. We still have TONS of snow, so we can't do anything in the garden except work in the green house. This year I am not even planning the garden other than the green house.

  13. Everything looks so good. I am amazed with all the flooding and rain you have had. This was a good lesson in weeding and trimming the peppers. Thank you

  14. I must be right on the edge of climates where you can over-winter peppers here in the Bay Area. Last year was a bit warmer and most made it through OK, but this year very few are still alive. Ah well, I have seedlings! It's pouring rain here so thanks for the sunny SoCal garden fix.

  15. I'd write home about those sweet potatoes, and OMG with 'steroid' one! Think my season is too short – need to check again – would love to have at least a few fresh from the garden. I'm inspired :O) It'll be a couple weeks or so before I can even walk on the grass (still some snow to melt then drying to happen) to get to some of my beds but your video gives me a feeling of promise. As always, thanks and take care to all.
