Did you see the Jeopardy question Friday. Nobody knew the Gardening question about what nutrient is lacking with chlorosis, but I did because of you! 😂 thank you for all you do, my garden wouldn’t be as beautiful without Garden Answer.
It got me a minute! I reminded to see if I heard correctly then caught Aaron’s response and then I laughed out loud! Love them both and their precious family!
WOW! That's young but you two are awesome together so it must work! I'd like to hear how your parents felt about that though I'm sure it's none of our business.
I live in Sweden and I would not put a green house like yours without shade either! In spring, fall and winter the trees won’t shade very much so you can grow things along and in summer even here you need the shade to have healthy plants!
Years ago I painted the handles of ALL my gardening tools bright pink - even the larger tools like pitchforks, hoes and rakes. Makes it easy to find everything at the end of the day. Friend of mine volunteered to fix my extremely old wheelbarrow (it used to be my mother's) -- it came back pink !!
❤it's Mom guilt! And you are not alone. And everything is for a season which you can see now, with seeing how Samantha can join you now and she's not putting everything in her mouth ❤ Thank you all for the gift you provide to us all!❤️
I watch you because you are not staged!!! You are real and your family is real and that is why you feel like family to me!!! ❤️ I am ordering my garden mats today - and I'm getting one for a friend!
My husband uses my green Kneeling pad to work under our RV🤦🏼♀️. I think I’ll order a pink one for my garden. He wouldn’t want to use a pink one. lol Love your growing store!!!!
I just love watching you go through your day. You have a beautiful family. I'm 70 and thought my gardening days were over, not be able to get down on my knees, but you've given me inspiration to keep gardening. Thank you so much.❤
Seriously it takes a few years after a baby is born to get your feet back on the ground! Then a few more years to figure out your new schedule! You seriously did a great job juggling everything. You have a full plate and a busy life outside of what you do here. 🙌🏻❤️
Your answer to the question about how many trees you've planted made me smile. I'm sure you remember the grief you got about taking sick and dangerous trees out when you first bought your property! You showed them 😉
I love your approach to your videos and gardening. It’s very basic. With the unspoken “Hi, you’re welcome to come along and see how I enjoy my garden.”❤❤ PS THANK YOU for NOT doing false or misleading titles!
Good morning. When garlic turns a blueish green colour is when an enzyme breaks down, it is safe to eat. It can happen when you pickle garlic, the enzyme is called allicin. It is not mold so no need to throw out the garlic. I like the way you are thinking these days. I have started to think that I only have so much time in a day, and I can only do so much. So I am not pushing myself to do so much even when I am at work. What gets done gets done everything else will get done the next day. Love your channel and have learned a lot from you and Aaron. Enjoy the rest of your day.
Sunday’s GA Highlights are among my favorite videos. The togetherness ( is that even a word) is so great to experience. You are so well suited….and while you each tackle different parts of the business you both are dedicated to its success. The fact that you each respect and value each other’s skills and knowledge is refreshing to watch. Kudos and many more years of continuing success!!!👍👍👍
I so enjoy the banter and looks between you two durning the chats. You are both so spontaneous, very uplifting!! Over the last year I have learned so much about gardening, landscaping, family relationships and now enjoy seed starting vs buying.
Aaron: When I'm sick, I don't feel an ounce of guilt. just feel im going to die and you guys will just have to figure things out on your own." Mic drop. I just laughed out loud. 🤣 Most of the men in my family think the same way. **Throws a sofa cushion at her husband lol
I watch you guys because you are authentic!!!! I ❤❤❤ Garden Answer!!! Ive spent soooo much time out in my yard this past year and everyone is enjoying the results!!! Thank you GA!
Yes, same here. It's a fav here in Canada, and back in the 90s I was addicted. They started making them again few years back, so now I buy them all the time and even got my son addicted to them. Lol
You have the best relationship and hearing you laugh with each other is so beautiful. Love the videos and the recap. I live in a very small home with postage stamp yard filled with rocks but I live at your home and do incredible gardening through you. It's very fulfilling for an old lady who isn't fit enough to actually accomplish what you do. Thank you so much!🤗💕🤗
My husband and I just celebrated our 18th July 7th. Isn't it crazy how quickly 18 years go by? I love watching the 2 of you together. Y'all have the perfect blend to create such a wonderful life. I feel the same about my marriage.
Garden Answer is your JOB. You should prioritize your family and those other things that make your life worthwhile. More women and MEN should take this attitude to heart, you said it beautifully. Life is too short not to. (And all those fake, staged reels may be entertaining but dangerous to get caught up in!)
When I listen to GA recaps, my former community cat, Milo, jumps on my lap and purrs. He also does this when I listen to a dog rescue channel. Laura and Aaron are very soothing and I always learn so much. Bless them!
I love the recaps. Perfect way to start my Sunday. I think they are the perfect addition to the other videos; giving more information when you think it is needed and bringing in some fun humor. Have a blessed day everyone.
Yes ! As we age, hopefully, we do learn to let things go. Definitely, time with kids, family, and community (church if that's your community)is way more important than looking perfect for the outside world. Just know we love and appreciate all of the Garden Answer team!!❤ yipee kneeling pads are back🎉 paused video and ordered!
Men! Arron not an once of guilt 😂😂😂 Laura I’m the same why I feel guilty being sick 🤢 meanwhile my hubs catches a cold and the world must stop 🫣 lord help us
Oh Laura, you’re so funny. You have no reason to be embarrassed of your age, you’re so beautiful and look so great. Wear your age with a badge of honor! 💜💜💜
That look on your face when you said "It's not like one of does more than the other" was priceless! I do make more money than my husband, but I asked him the other day, "why do I have to pay for all the house repairs?" His response was "Because I provide all the labor". It made me chuckle, but it's true. If we had to pay someone to fix, or remodel, it would cost us a small fortune in labor.
So happy you are now answering the recap questions, I have been leaving questions for years and never no answers, so I stopped leaving them in hope’s maybe someone else would ask that same question and it would get answered! Question………. When will we get a tour of the Garden Answer Warehouse ????????????)
Laura I think all us moms feel guilty when we can't be there for our kids when we are sick. I agree with you and Aaron about having joy in your garden. Your joy shows and is infectious.😊
You should feel definitely blessed to have no humidity when it’s so hot. I can walk outside and do NOTHING when it’s in the 80’s and break a sweat. I TRY to do most of the harder garden chores in the spring when the temps are in the 60’s and low 70’s . In the fall it’s our rainy season so it’s very hard to get outside when the temperatures are cooler so in the spring I HAVE to work like a crazy person to get any major things done or I’m out of luck and have to wait until the following spring. 🌺💚🙃
Our humidity in Maryland is stifling. I can do nothing but water when it's this hot! It's been above 90 - 95 with feels like temps of 100 - 105°. It's too much for me.
I’ve always used 2 small kneelers and place them to crawl thru garden! Also use 5 gallon bucket to push to get up! Love gardening and spend a lot of time kneeling!
I just ordered a Pink kneeling pad but not for working in the garden. I am 76 & when I clean house sometimes I need to have something for my knees & this sounds perfect for that.
Your channel is extremely helpful to us! We have built a new home on 5 acres with pond; it’s a lovely area but we’re sharing it with the deer. There are plenty of nuts trees to feed them for awhile. Please recommend shrubs/bushes and flowers they tend to avoid. We planted some arborvitae’s for privacy, but I have been told the deer will eat them when hungry.
Had to laugh at the “Laura, how old are you?” Question. 🤣. “I’m 32!” ( totally believable BTW). 🤣🤣🤣 Earlier in the video she said how long she and Aaron have been married. Let’s do the math….. Laura was 14 when she got married!!!!🥰🤣🥰. Come on people!! When will you learn that you NEVER ask a lady’s age or if they are pregnant!!!! EVER! 💚💚💚🤣🤣🤣 Good answer, Laura!
I watch another channel where the viewers are disappointed in the current content. I feel bad for the creators, because they still put effort into creating. The viewers complain. I really appreciate the two of your disposition. When you have nasty viewers comment, you address it and then just tell them to move on. I hope the other couple will grow into the confidence you two do.
Great recap this week! Thanks for always keeping it real! Also, the information you both share on gardening is priceless to all your viewers. Thank you!
The look thar Laura gave Aaron at 11:55 when she was talking about the division of chores and one doing more than the other? I felt that in my soul.

Laura, your videos are wonderful! You're so perfectly soothing and incredibly inspirational. I can't tell you how many beds you've inspired me to create. You're the person that gets me off my butt to get outside because you make it look fun. Thank you for all the videos you do. You're literally the RU-vid celebrity of gardening.
You two are so down to earth...love both your little snarky comments ,but both have the love filled eyes to each other. You make me smile and chuckle to myself. Ummm Laura, married 16 years and only 32 yrs. old?????And Aaron agrees. Smart man! LOL
Happy early eighteenth anniversary Laura and Aaron. My amazing hubby and I just celebrated forty years of wedded bliss. A partnership marrage is a true blessing. Enjoy you two!!! 🎉
Hartley owner here in Southern Idaho - definitely put in tree shade area. Dialing in and struggling with it being a hot glass box. Best thing ever in winter & fall!
So happy the kneeling pads are back in stock. I ordered 3 large (green, pink and red) for my daughters and me as well as two small pink ones for my granddaughters who are 4 and 2 and love to work in the garden with us.
So glad you are offering the smaller kneeling pad. I have a small deck box in my side garden, so I don't have to go back to the shed, and the large one did not fit well. This will be perfect!
Love your videos and info! I do the trick with moving the kneeling pads 🤗 I would love all shade too! I’m in Pittsburgh PA, our property only has one and small tree 😮 3 years ago we planted four trees and slowly getting shade….still need more!😂
I made pickles from homegrown cucumbers this year and the garlic turned blue in the jars. I looked it up and it is a normal chemical reaction, harmless, and considered a delicacy in China!
I knew it because you have the energy of a 32 year old! Envy that but you have inspired me to do more with a flower bed that’s been a fail for years. So far, so good!
I’m so busy right now that I don’t always get to watch all your videos, which makes me sad. But I never ever miss a recap. Thank you for always being so honest and real. I’ve learned so much from you both.
I love the style of your videos and am so glad you don't have a TV show...I worked for HGTV for years and your authenticity and expertise is gold compared to written shows!
We here in Vegas are welcoming 108 this upcoming week as a "cool down" after days of 116 plus. My garden is about half dead despite babying everything with extra water, shading etc. Anyway, we gardeners all have our challenges. :)
I just finished ‘the Nightingale’ because of you. Oh. My. Goodness. LAURA, you change me so much. Thanks for the recommendation. Must read, guys. Can’t wait for the movie!
I wish I was more like Laura. Definitely the personality of very successful person. I have no problem at all shutting down and doing nothing. But I also have no kids or spouse. But I do like to do something in my garden every day.
Laura, referring to the question given to you about do you ever feel guilty if you take time for yourself, I so enjoy and love when you have a video of you, your mother and sister take off to thrift and do lunch, you all laugh and enjoy each others company.
There’s a difference between orchestrated and organized too. Sometimes if you’re having a teaching moment you have to seem orchestrated. Love u guys! Thanks for being a bright spot in my day! 😊❤
You guys are great. I’m in Canada and I see some pants/trees/shrubs I am going to try. Thank you love your content. … I see a clearly Canadian water…I love love love that water. We just recently got it back up here Canada. I use to have to go over to Maine and get it.
I’m doing the math on Laura and Aaron being married 18 years, and she’s 32, then had to back it up three times to read the words on the screen when he agreed with her. So many things to love about these two in addition to loving their beautiful gardens. ❤
I went down to the garden center & got some echinacea after watching your tour. 😊 Love they are always full of beautiful things inside & outside the store.
Loved the (clearly) Canadian reference on display today 😉…since you have a drink with you for every weekly recap, you might find a beverage company or two to sponsor you! You have lots of followers north of the border who love your content!
Ordered small pad a few days ago! In my late 60’s and my back and hamstrings don’t enjoy as much bending to work on plants. Always learn something new from your recaps! Loved the tidbit about fertilizer not being as helpful in the heat, so I won’t use my rose tone monthly as package says and feel bad! Also love the interactions between both of you as you answer questions! Very authentic and keeps me watching daily! ❤❤❤
If anyone is on the fence about getting the kneeling pad, I would highly recommend getting one! I have been very impressed by the thickness of the cushion as well as the large size. As a 5’10” person, it’s been so nice to have this season! Best Mother’s Day gift!
I grew up on a dairy farm and my dad had a big tank with salt tablets to soften the water. He ran it for all the years we had a dairy barn. It looked like a huge water heater. Didn't take up much space. We used a lot of water
You really need to do the Strengths Finder self assessment. Laura, my guess is your number one strength is Achiever. This is your personality trait that motivates the rest of us as well! Thank you for what you do! 💚💚💚🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Blue/green garlic color change when canning is normal reaction to acid in the vinegar. It happens in my pickles some. If that’s what the person was asking about. It’s safe to eat. ;)
Aaron and Laura at the Chicago Botanic Garden we enjoy the greenhouses year round by whitewashing the roof glass each April. It is a quick process and prevents leaf burn while moderating summer temps. Maybe this would help you. Much love Gin
OMG! I’m so happy to learn that I have the “limited edition” Garden Answer logo green kneeling pad!!! I might have to order another kneeling pad and frame my logo one. It’s going to be worth something someday! 😂 Also loved the tip about using two kneeling pads - genius!
