  I’m more emotionally invested in the success of this orchard than I care to admit ...

  Dude this is probably the best video on pruning fruit trees. More so, since you included your prior clips of cuts and the after effect. Thanks a lot for this video, it is really useful with great information.

  You are doing something I haven't seen on other Youtube channels. You are making what is so hard to understand in books really understandable. You are showing the progression of things. Being honest. Giving good visuals. You communicate clearly. No fluff. Even though you are in a totally different climate than me, I subscribed because you are a good teacher and understand how to shoot good instructional videos. Thank you!

  You hit the nail on the head. So many YouTubers create videos with no follow-up and I just know the project failed. Love this refreshing transparency. I’ve started watching your videos from oldest up until now and it’s exciting because I’m still 4 years behind haha. Loving the journey and the investment you are making into creating this content that is timeless.

  I can NOT believe how much growth you had in 4 months.  I think it looks like about 4 YEARS of growth here in MN.  I'm happy to keep following along with your more recent videos.  This is giving me confidence to try to get an orchard planted soon.

  I work at a garden center and I share your pruning videos at least a couple of times a day! I love your simple explanations and the visual examples….especially through time. GREAT WORK!

  BRUTAL!!  Thank you so much for helping me stand up to my vigorous Nectarine tree.  I didn't prune them when I planted them, wanting to establish the root growth and now I have a 12 foot nectarine that I was scared to approach.  I now know I can command that tall leader to come down to size and trim back the branches to the size of my back yard.  Wow, your confidence gives me the courage to cut back my little orchard to the size that will do me and the trees some good.  Also, the pace of the information given was perfect for me.  Too slow and I get bored, too fast and I can't keep up.  yours was just right.

  It is so refreshing to see someone posting videos that 1) Are being done by a person that actually knows what they are doing (have experience) and are not just someone who is just doing something for the first time and in place of really making an instructional video they are just recording their first time attempt at something.  2) The information is so very well described, which again demonstrates that this gentlemen knows what he is talking about.  I have watched many videos on pruning... which were doing by those that were very qualified to instruct.  However, it is common for someone with a great deal of knowledge on a subject to overlook the needed basics.  Again, this gentlemen makes sure to explain all details, yet not get way long winded about it.  (Example of long winded being my comment here.  :-)  )  Thank you sir for all the time and effort you put into making this video.  You most likely put hours into this 30+ minute video presentation.  [Subscribed]
