Awesome videos, too bad you forgot to ask about the strawberry cover. Was curious about that.

Do you even watch your own videos? If you did, you would agree that MAN, YOU TALK TOO MUCH! Seriously. Each and every single video, you really love the sound of your voice. Ugh.

Love your videos

pretty good staff u talk and walk trought but the video was long and talky talky make it short thanks

if at first you don't succeed try try again

you treat that plant bad it may come back to haunt you

please do not yell at the plant

you yelled at the plant

P.S you suck dude, omg why do they let you hinder their business advertising, just FIX YOURSELF

Dude I want to watch these videos but I still cannot, you make it impossible to do so. You freakin talk way to much about each subject repeating and describing the same thing 20 different ways. You like to hear yourself talk, you love describing what if this what if that, example this, example that. You easily lose 80 percent of viewers the first 3 minutes, it's TERRIBLE. It's like listening to that high school teacher that takes an hour to explain 1+1, making up explanations on the fly

John,
I love your information, but NOT the length or repeated lectures in EVERY video. C'mon, we've heard it already and don't need one hour videos giving EXACTLY the same speeches over and over and over. Get to the details and the primary intent of each video and you'll keep our interest. When you go on your repeated rants, my mind wanders quickly. This is not a dis.....I WANT your guidance, but I can't sit through long videos that have information I WANT, but then have to listen to the same, long diatribes from all of your OTHER videos. Cheers mate!

I love the education portion of this video with Daren. Great stuff. Any chance next year you could put together a video with Daren talking about the nuts & bolts of his operation more? I bet he could put together a farming school right there on site :) Those future farmers could even help on the farm. Win win for everybody. Great education and a portion of your labor force would pay you to be there! I truly feel the knowledge, experience, and effort that Daren has built up and put in over the years, if spread to the world though You-Tube and a school, could change the tide.

This son of a bitch has a gift to gab I want to get that good diction and inflection and rhythm

Your videos are too long.
