Used to watch your WoT videos, but don't like WoT so much these days so I like this channel where I can still get your humor (your parent stories were great as was the border one!). Assuming you're mid-northern B.C., for your garden you are a bit limited by the temp. No peppers, sweet potatoes, most perennial herbs, etc. What does grow well? Potatoes, cabbage, winter squash, onions, swiss chard, parsnips, and peas. Quite possibly cauliflower and broccoli. For herbs, dill, caraway, chives, hardy strains of thyme, parsley, and mint (mint is a serious weed, be careful of planting it in soil). You could also grow herbs in pots and bring them in during the winter. Try kick-starting tomatoes indoors too if you have a problem with them. You're right that you have crazy good sunlight up north. Try looking at Alaska state fair videos or Alaska home steaders and you'll get a sense of what you can grow well (even better than down south) and what's missing. Oh, and don't forget sweet fruits! You might have success with some hardy raspberry bushes or strawberries. Good luck!

I accidently grew a tomato plant from a dirty dishcloth. I must have made cheese and tomato sandwiches and wiped the surface after with the cloth which got a seed caught in it, then I threw that cloth behind the taps. A while later I noticed a small shoot coming out the cloth so I planted it in a pot and it got really big like 2 meters I had to get a bigger pot and tie it up with sticks to support it. Had lots of tomatos from that plant.

Interesting. Gardening can be very fulfilling hobby in many ways. I planted this year few blackcurrant scions from my neighbors bushes. The good thing about perennials (like currants) is that you don't have to plant them every year like annuals (like salad's). In many years they just get better and better with some care. I would like to plant some raspberry bushes. The Canadian raspberry varieties I believe are the most popular also here in Finland. Here is an idea plant a Finnish gooseberry bush. You never probably have eat them. They are quite productive and I think it would make just fine in Canada. The berries are pretty tasty , but it make poor jam or juice. But if you want fantastic taste and healthy juice plant blackcurrant, like I did. That's my top recommendation.

In the South of the US....can grow almost anything. Monitoring watering vs natural rain is the biggest issue. Tomatoes, figs, peppers, onions, corn, beans, squash , zucchini...limited by what space you have. In the fall , which is pretty mild you can still grow. Then go out in the woods and harvest some protein. The state I live in harvests on average half a million deer. Feral hogs don't have a season they're so bad. I'm a beef fan, so I do buy some. But most of my protein comes from deer or feral pig. I could probably do pretty well eating the squirrels that love my pecan trees. That's apocalypse stuff though. I put out seed for the birds and I don't discourage the squirrels from sharing. It's easy to be independent, stay connected and be old school. Eat what you harvest.

I do usally watch your WoT videos, almost daily bases as I do khave sometimes a good laugh, but something in the nature and doing something with it is quite refreshing. The same goes with pets like dogs or a bit more cabable beeings like a frog or something. We had a dog from my early childhood and oh boy this Bella was a wonderful creature. Yes dogs and others are animals, but they do have something going on between their ears, sometimes more than my team mates in random que in WoT, but that is besedides the point, they also have clearly feelings and even moods and compared to humans, for an example dogs are just what they are and there is no pretending, it is all an open book to read.

I also have my own compost, red wiggler worms, we're 6 heads family so we got a lot of kitchen scraps to throw into the worm bin. I'd suggest you to just grow stuff that are natural to your climate/area, like... berries? lol Also maybe grow some trees that are natural to your area/climate, the trees will provide shade in the summer and cover in the winter and the leaves that fall from the trees will be the natural compost for your veggies, kind of a perma - culture kind of way, this way is less labor and more natural way, i'm not an expert though! have bunch of bunch of disasters while trying to grow stuff that are not natural to my area... berries, don't grow well in deserts :X

That will help you with growing more edible plants without to much worry and should do better since you'll be giving them more water than they'd get naturally. If you have an iphone, you can take a photo and long as you get a wild plant growing around you, swipe the photo up, it'll give you a search of what type of plant that is. Result comes out better when you get the plant focused and singled out too. Then you can just search up that plant, find out if it's native to Arizona if it was used by any tribes as a crop as well.
