7 MORE Garden Tips I Wish I Knew Sooner || Black Gumbo

Video Description

Don't you wish you could go back in time and do things over? Sometimes in gardening, we make mistakes, we cut corners, we fall for gimmicks, we get bad advice, or good advice and don't act. In this episode, I'll give you seven more things I wish I had known sooner. This is a followup to my five things video from the spring of this year. If you are new to gardening, or even and old veteran, maybe there is something here that will help you grow more vegetables, better food, and have a garden that is a source of joy.
