Alberta Urban Garden Video Blog

[Northernfox]

Last year I did a few YouTube Videos and really enjoyed the process. I do them so I can stay connected with my family whom are all over Canada!

I decided this year to expand the videos I am doing. I love to learn and share information so I hope to do that via YouTube as I have no gardening friends that live close by.

So Please take the time to watch and let me know what you think?

This is the last video tour I did last season. I actually forgot to post it last year!



I work in a number of buildings and visit this one from time to time and absolutely love going there. in the centre of this building there is an Atria with ALLL sorts of tropical plants growing! it is a nice get away when it is -40



I will have a whole list that I want to do this year so stay tuned and I hope you enjoy!

Hey Stephen,
Nice! Thanks for sharing!

I really enjoy growing strawberries for the first time last year. I decided this year I am comparing varieties!

Seascape vs. Tri-Star vs. Sierra F1.

What don't get raided from the garden I hope will make their way into Strawberry Wine. That is not likely to happen this year but I should have a good idea about how well the varieties do here for production taste and overwintering.

take a look at my youtube video about it don't mind the poor camera work I have learnt a ton already and will improve in future videos!


hope you Enjoy!

Yesterday was a great day I got a ton of time in the garden and came in, after watering, right before it rained! I was able to shoot some material for a number of my garden videos! here is part 2 of Operations Strawberry! they are flowering and there is quite the difference in the plants.

hope you enjoy

I have been learning how to edit my videos! I chose a simpler topic to test my new skills on

This week I checked in on all of my sweet and Hot peppers. I did a few of each last year with mixed success and am driven to see if I cant do better this year

Hope you enjoy

stay tuned next week we will look at my tomatoes and see if we cant get a good crop in my third attempt.

Testing out what I saw on another thread

[Northernfox]

we are getting more rain in an already flooding province. so I thought I would make the best of it and do a youtube video in time-laps of my garden

[Northernfox]

This week I decided to do a video on my tomatoes. I have had mixed success in the past however with the great community on The Helpful Gardener Forms I have a plan that should help

take a look at video and let me know what you think

[Northernfox]

I did another time-lapse of the rain coming in however this time I decided to catch my favourite part of the day. Sun-rise!



I hope you enjoy!

Last night we had a HUGE storm pass through. In the spirit of documenting in my Video Blog I did a video of it

These storms are exactly why I do a lot to protect my garden against the wind.

It has been three weeks and time for a Garden update!!! so much has happened good and bad take a few minutes and check out my garden this morning!

I always appreciate input!

Last year in the jungle of pumpkin leafs I had a really hard time watering the back plants. With this years expansion all along the back fence I decided to give drip irrigation hose a try. Not the most precise product but a cheaper investment of time and money at this point.

Following this video there were some adjustments that are still required. The first being unused areas get electrical tape on them to help maximize use at important places and planets tape at the joints.


I hope you enjoy!

Something is very wrong with the audio about three quarters of the way in.
