Cheers Buddy :-) Kyle Ignaitis 7 months ago What a cool kid. Tell him that I loved his video. My pumpkin seeds are still in their package! Dragging a hose to the neighbors house makes for a lazy garden! I score super high on aspergers tests, but my ego overpowers it. Still working on keeping it in check. And I love watering with a can too. Very therapeutic.

Looking good there.....is that well water or some of Daddy's "pool water" making them grow so big? Hide replies Blake Kirby 7 months ago HaHa... That's funny. No, this here is water from the tap. Sometimes he dips into the rain barrel when it's available. Blake Kirby 7 months ago +edward cawley do you facebook?

Love your horticulture.. are you using the wood chip method from that film Back to Eden? Blake Kirby 7 months ago 2 No, this is not the Back to Eden method. The bed does have some mulch on it, but it isn't following any particular method. ThePwcj 7 months ago Thank you for the update Luke. They are looking great. Take care. Paul. Homesick4Hills 7 months ago Move over Dad. Luke's stealing the show :) Blake Kirby 7 months ago I'm going to have to give him his own show :) skittles99 7 months ago That is an amazing pumpkin patch, Luke! My pumpkin plants are not nearly as nice as yours. I am also 1/16 Cherokee! I look forward to your next update! Maybe one day soon I will make some videos of my garden to share with you! Alabama Organic Gardening 7 months ago Luke, you may have more than a couple pumpkins this year! It looks like you have a great pumpkin patch going on here, my friend! Let us know when they start putting on big flowers! I can't wait to see it! sarahrose0413 7 months ago Luke is my favorite part of these videos!!! I have a boy the same age, but he does not speak at all......maybe someday..:-)) Luke, you are a fantastic farmer!!! Blake Kirby 7 months ago Wow, it's Monday morning and I'm getting a chance to read the comments on this video! Thank you all for your sincere and kind comments to Luke. We read the comments to Luke from time to time. He doesn't make a big deal about it, but I can tell that he is very pleased to have you join him on this gardening journey. He loves caring for the Pumpkin plants. Very often he'll say "I need to water my Pumpkins"... He won't leave us alone until the job is done. I try to help him with the hose, but he gets frustrated because he likes to do it with the watering can! LOL ... Thanks again, you are wonderful people. Hide replies MollyDolly 7 months ago (edited) Please tell Luke I totally understand the watering can preference! Me, too!! The way the water sprinkles out is way more fun! Maybe Luke has started a watering can movement! :-) Blake Kirby 7 months ago He's the same way in the garden. I have a hose prepared with a sprinkler head right next to his garden bed. He'll use it to fill the can instead of just watering the bed LOL ... he has one can in the garden and another on the front porch that he takes to the Pumpkin patch. Mama likes the watering cans too. Whenever we are at the flea markets we look for 'em. MollyDolly 7 months ago 3 Hahaha! My neighbor has a bird house collection...I was thinking of starting a watering can collection and growing plants in a bunch. :-) Penny Treasures 7 months ago Your pumpkins are growing fast! It shows they are happy and healthy thanks to the care you give them. Great job! Glo Tejada 7 months ago Great job Luke! nov51947 7 months ago (edited) I'm sure the Great Pumpkin will visit Luke's patch this year! Diana Reiss 7 months ago Luke, your pumpkin patch has come a long way. The love and care you are showing them is very apparent in their growth. Great Job! Do another video when you see they are getting flowers. I think you chose the perfect spot to grow them, as they are very healthy there. Praxxus55712 7 months ago Autism is the foundation to a successful pumpkin plant. Luke has a slight advantage over me. I'm only half autistic....and 1/16th Cherokee. :) Reply Blake Kirby 7 months ago Luke has a slight advantage over many of us on a lot of things. He doesn't get caught up in senseless hustle... life is simple. We try to get him to hurry about some things but it doesn't matter to him. He just wants to know that you love him... and wants to let you know that it's time to take care of the garden. .. and by the way, Luke is about 1/32th Cherokee :) Gardening & More 7 months ago My daughter is autistic and loves to get in the garden, she is not old enough to realize whats going on yet, but she is only 4,but she loves picking all my green tomatoes =) Michael Natures 7 months ago A family that gardens together loves much ; ) PlantzNThings 7 months ago WOW!
