Hi! I'm Thida, This is my garden. I have been passionate about gardening all my life. In my videos you will find tips and tricks I use to raise wonderful fruits, vegetables and flowers.
I live in the San Francisco bay area and I garden in zone 4. This channel was started during COVID lockdown to enable me to share my love of gardening with others. Hopefully my videos will help you with your garden.
Please help me grow. Below are links to my Facebook, patron and subscribe star pages. Email me at thidasgarden@zohomail.com if you want to contact me directly.
Thank you for the video--I hadn't even thought of trying to grow blueberries from storebought berries, but I will definitely give it a try. Blueberries are too hard to grow in my area; nursery stock is too expensive for experiments. This would be a much cheaper way to get plants.
Only when I want to propagate. If you don't, a new shoot comes out from the base of that stem? I answerefew dsays ago but just find out it was not publish. Sorry about that.

No you're not. Building blocks do not leach chemicals, they are bound to the concrete matrix, this is scientifically proven and people have been safely doing it forever. Worst case scenario is the concrete raises the pH through leached alkalinity.
I didn’t know that the strawberries get ruined if they touch the soil! Good thing you mentioned it. I just started groin vegetables last month and I am learning. Thank you
I make sure that the soil is moist when I start planting. Then just use the watering can with spray holes (the round part that is connected to the can) to water the seeds to make sure the soil does not get dry out.
When I rented a townhouse about 28 years ago my landlord was surprised at how I grew sunflowers in a cinderblock and he said in the beginning it never would work. I explained to him the way why it would work. And he got it. I actually planted them in cinderblock because he killed my first batch with his lawn mower. I love cinderblocks and made a kitchen shelf out of them as well. Thanks for your video and I will do the same this year.
You have 39 plants.. You Harvested one corn and said the next one in few days. If you saved all harvested corns it will take months to collect all corns and then what? You freeze them s you'll have enough to make a meal with? If I was a farmer I would grow baby corn and would sell them for $3.00 A corn. No less than $2.50 A corn.
That is why we do not see any fresh baby corn in any market including farmers market. That is why I grow them so that I can eat the fresh. Something money can't buy. The only baby corn we see in US in canned baby corn that were made in Thailand. The difference is not even comparable. Fresh ones are 1000x better. I grow them about 3 patches.. They don't need much room asmthey don't need to get mature. I have enough to make a meal if I wait for about a week.
What about if you have lots of wild rabbits, it'll make it easy for them to eat them...I don't really have anywhere to put them up higher on. Any recommenations?
Do you know for sure that rabbits will eat? Squirrels don't eat them in my backyard. They are too acidic. If rabbits eat them you may have to cover the individual plants with chicken wire. That way you can easily remove them and pick the fruits. Fold the chichen wire to cover the pot or the bricks. I do that for seedlings to protect from attracts of different animals.
Don't cover them. The seeds are very small. They take long to germinate. The best way for me is to let them come up in my compost material when I transfer them to the garden.
They taste like spinach. No taste of heat at all. You can stir fry them, but you need to add a little bit of water to cook them good. I stir in an egg at the end.
There is an heirloom variety I tried and worked well. However regular sweet corns are sweeter. To me seed company claims it is for baby, but regular ones are better. You can try them side by side and see.
I bought some self watering pots from Amazon. They over water regular plants, but I watched your video on Watercress and I think they'll be perfect for Watercress. I planted it this morning.
Great video! I have a bunch of volunteers coming up in a flower bed and I decided to let them go. Like you said, it will be fun to see what they turn out to be!
Thank you. I recently had a delicious kale and shredded chicken salad at a Burmese restaurant. I think it also contained peanuts. The only thing I didn’t like was the strong vinegar taste of the dressing.
