Hey buddy, stopping by to say hello!! I’m still planting the praxxus cherry tomatoes. It’s been quite a few years and they are still thriving. Miss your updates here on RUclips. I’ll keep checking in to see if you’ve dropped a video!

Hello Ray, Mike and the pet sanctuary. I hope everyone's healthy and happy. Be well and safe my friend.

Miss you ray

Ray, you are like the Mr Roger's neighborhood of gardening videos. The Mr Ray's Gardenhood if you will. I hope retirement suits. Gotta say even after two years, I still miss seeing you and the animals and the gardening results. I especially remember the turkeys that followed you like amorous puppies. Do you still keep birds of all types. Perhaps one day you'll pop up a few dozen pictures of your place and your animals and gardens, etc. I know you didn't have close neighbors in your neighborhood, but we were your neighbors, Mr. Ray. Have a beautiful day in your neighborhood.

I realized you haven't come up on my feed in a really long time and came to check out what you were up to. My daughters and I would watch you all the time when they were growing up. My youngest is now 20 and what made me think of you is when I was standing in the back yard looking at the huge garden she has grown and all the landscaping she has done around the house. Know you have left a mark on many lives and you are loved. <3 Thank you for all the information and videos.

Hey Ray, We miss you buddy. I come here once in a blue moon to reminisce on the good times here and in the voodoo Garden. You'd be happy to know you inspired by indoor Garden. I've been keeping it going since 2009!. Some of the plants are 15 years old. Hope you, rascal and the critters are well.

Does anybody know what happened to Ray

We miss you Ray. Truly hope you are enjoying life.

Good afternoon, Ray. Writing to you from beautiful middle of nowhere downtown Maine. Deep blue cloudless sky, light breeze and a dry 86 degrees. Was catching up on my notifications and came across one called, The Easiest Gardening Method You've Never Heard Of..., or Chaotic planting. Which immediately reminded me of your seed bombs. It's been awhile since I checked in, and here you are. Great to see you. And Thank You for the link to Sarahsseedshop. Your tradition of making growing veg, at a reasonable price, lives on. Speaking of seeds, I was going through my Prax seed box Spring of last year and found a few Prax Cherry's and Pusa Jwala peppers. No idea how old they were and planted some. Wow, 100% germination. Restocked the Prax Cherry seed nicely, and Pusa's, well they went berserk in September. Enough so, we dried and ground up enough to fill an 8oz spice jar, and 1/2 fill a prescription bottle of seeds. Even a friend of ours from India said, "WHOOO, This will do" lol Her mild curry would peel paint off a bumper! My favorite video was when your neighbor had met his demise. I don't have a sick sense of humor, it's more so evidence of your great ability to tell a story. Wow, 14 years ago and I was hooked! Here's hoping you are safe, well, and smiling my friend, and please say Hi to Mike. Mark n Rosa

I miss you Ray.. You’ve played such a big role in me growing up, watching you thrive and bloom in your garden. Even being a teenager, spending a day with you, Mike and the animals in the garden sounded like the most perfect day and now being 34, I still feel that way. I know it’s been a while now since you retired and I hope you are happy. When things go bad in life, right now I’m at a very low point in life after a devastating relationship and the breakup, I still find myself seeking calmness and safety in coming back to your videos. I don’t know if you realize just how much you have given us. It has always been so much more than just gardening videos. Thank you so much for everything Ray ❤

Hi Ray, I watched your video on raising Christopher the robin. I am in a similar situation. I do have experience in hatching chicks and goslings with my incubator. I have a few questions for you, if you wouldn't mind, regarding the first few days of a robin hatchling. Thank You.

Every garden season I think of you and watch your videos. I spent my whole first year gardening about ten years ago watching your videos every morning with my coffee after I had my garden time

I miss you !!!

I hope all the bad storms are missing you and your farm and that you are doing well.

OK, it's been a few years. Time for you to make more videos. No? OK, that's alright. Hope all is well with you guys. I saved seeds from one of my Praxxus Cherry tomatoes last year and have 18 little plants. Today is May 11, 2024 and if things look safe enough in a week or two, some will go outside into the garden.

We love you brother

Hi Ray, How is Crackhead and the others fur/feather friends? How are the fruit trees and land doing? I respect your privacy. But, I sure would like to see how you and everything is going. Although, YT has grown and changed over the years. You are a staple. You paved the way for other large YT channels, whether they give you credit or not. All the best to you, always!

I don’t know what everyone else is thinking but I miss you ❤❤❤

Where did you go Ray? Made your enchiladas again tonight. Always a winner !! 👍👍

Hey Ray, I hope you are faring well through the storms. We sure do miss you here.

Hi Ray, how are you? I never left a comment before but always watched your videos. I miss you! I hope you and your fur babies are well. I wish you would make a video every once in awhile .. speaking of how you are doing. Take care.

That cat loves you

Would love another video if u ever got the time. Everything u have shared has been great information and I have definitely picked up a few tricks from u thank u.

I just wanted to say I found your channel years ago, (when you did the mango video). I always enjoyed your program. You always had that calm soul/mentor personality. I will truely miss these programs. I hope you enjoy retirement! (Maybe could you do a live stream once in awhile. Lol)

Hey Ray! Hope retirement is going well and that you're enjoying life! Just wanted to stop by and drop a short little thank you message. I won't make this super super long but it's fair to say your channel literally changed the course of my life. It was about maybe 12 years ago when 10-year old me stumbled across your channel after some activities at school got me interested in gardening. I would spend hours just sitting behind the family computer or the new fangled ipad watching your videos. For the next few years following that, growing plants and gardening became my thing, and even though I lived in a small apartment I was able to grow tomatoes, okra, carrots, lettuce, a strawberry (i bought the plant but took care of it) and so many others I can't even recall them. And even made my own version of your compost tea from old eggshells and banana peels that stunk to high heck and my mom would always yell at me for but the plants loved. In my teenage years though my interest sorta waned, and I even recall coming over to your channel a few times to leave nonsensical or trolling and even if those days are long gone and you probably don't remember them, I'd like to say sorry about that. Nevertheless, your channel gave me a life-long interest in plants and biology in general. Especially the way you would repeatedly describe how organic fertilizers worked, where you would be feeding the soil microbes and the whole ecosystem living in the dirt that then feeds your plants. Just last year I graduated from a biotech degree and am currently 8 months into my first job in the field looking into probiotics and things like that. I still have no idea what I'll pursue like most young adults. Research into cancer or becoming a teacher seem the most appealing (if I end up choosing the latter I'd like to borrow your style of teaching if you don't mind haha), but recent events have brought be back to gardening and rediscovering the goldmine of your channel. Boy, a lot has changed since then but planting seeds and setting the pots on my windowsill made me feel like a kid again. Thanks Ray for making me who I am today. Hope you have a good day and many more!

Ray, I have been following you for years and I miss your videos. So inspiring! You gave me a genuine love for plants that I never had before! Please come back! 😢

Hey Ray ! I wanna just say that you are one of my favorite people on this platform . Most things I know about gardening and love for gardening I’ve learned through watching your videos . Hope you’re doing well ❤ miss your vids

Hey Ray, hope you're doing well. Sitting here thinking of you, Mike and your animals as I'm sitting here repotting my Praxxus tomatoes. Certainly miss you my friend, i don't know how many times I've rewatched your videos to let the stress float away and for a bit more selfishly just to spend time with another garden gnome. I hope all is well with you guys and hopefully the long drought will come to and end. You're still loved by many of us here.

RAY - JUST THROUGH OF YOUR WEBSITE RECENTLY AND SAD THAT YOU ARE NOT ON STAGE - AS IT WERE - I HAVE A SENIOR FRIEND WHO IS PLANNING TO DO SOME GARDENING - SHE HAS HARDLY NO INCOME AND WANTS TO PLANT SOME ORGANGIC SEEDS. DO YOU STILL SELL ANY OF YOUR SEEDS.? PLEASE ADVISE IF YOU SEE THIS QUESTION. BY THE WAY I LOVE WHAT YOU ARE DOING WITH THE KRITTERS WHO ADOPT YOU. I AM FOSTERING A FERAL KITTY FOR A SHELTER OUTSIDE OF HAMILTON, ONTARIO. SHE HAS SPENT SEVERAL MONTHS UNDER THE BED OF COURSE AND I'M TOLD THIS CAN LAST FOR EVEN UP TO A YEAR TILLE SHE LOSES HER FEAR OF PEOPLE. REQUIRES A LOT OF PATIENCE ON MY PART, BUT I LOVE THE CHALLENGE AND LOVE HER EVEN THOUSH SHE IS NOT MINE TO KEEP. ANWAY LOVE WHAT YOU HAVE PLANNED FOR YOUR FUTURE AND HOPE I CAN TELL MY FRIENDS ABOUT YOUR SEEDS - IF THEY ARE STILL AVAILABLE FOR SALE. THANKS AND BLESSING AND PRAYERS FOR YOU AND MIKE AND OF COURSE YOUR 4-LGGED EXTENDED FAMILY. I SHOULD GIVE YOU MY EMAIL ADDRESS IF YOU DO READ THIS - elizabass17@gmail.com

Hello Ray, thank you for creating the videos.

I hope this finds you well. Growing season is once again upon us and it’s inevitable that I will always think of you and all you’ve shared with us over those years. You inspired me to grow indoors in addition to gardening. I don’t have nearly the beautiful room you’ve showcased so many times, but maybe one day. Thank you for the inspiration and knowledge. I pray you and your loved ones are well God bless you sir

Was thinking about you today. Hope all is going well! I was pondering a pepper I thought I grew that I became aware from you! (Possible Fushimi but couldn't find the video I was looking for to confirm) but looking through your old videos I found it so ....odd? It was so long ago when I use to always watch u looked forward to your post. I remember fondly things in ur life buying the farm getting animals garden success and failures. Anywho hope you are doing well!

I have been watching Ray since 2011. Now I have 2 kids and still gardening. I hope you are doing ok. Your videos are still helping me. Love from CO.

Ray, I'm so thankful for the material you've left here, I I've followed your content for many many years, and from the time you were in your first house, or the time you helped a Robin grow it's been a beautiful and heartfelt journey that has your generosity and sincerity all around, that exchange has been a healing path for so many viewers just like me. I salute you and send you my best and kindest regards.

I started getting into gardening in the 7 or 8th grade i was about 13 yrs old and thats when i started watching you im 22 now ive been on and off. Of gardening but in my days of gardening ive learned so much about gardening from you. That my knowledge still carrys on today and now living in an apartment I think imma grow imma grow peppers in pots to make salsa. I hope your enjoying your retirement. Were all here for you ray Fun story back in highschool in agriculture class we grew a garden. I got to teach my friends about compost tea🫡

Was just looking for you on TikTok, hoping you were making some content there Miss you Ray. ❤

Ray please come back or at least re open the seed shop I miss it and I miss your videos 😢

Are you alive no videos for two years

Awww, Ray, you were one of the first youtube channels I started watching over 10 years ago. I was just thinking about your Monster yellow pepper video, and hadn't seen any new videos from you for a while, so I figured I'd pop in and see your latest videos. Sad to see you are no longer posting, but it's good to see you still popping in to reply to comments. May you enjoy life and I wish you the best!

Thank you for being there for me when I was in a really bad time in my life, I'm now in a better place and came back to find your channel, whilst I'm sad you're not posting, I'm so happy that you're doing what is true and right for you :) I get to start my garden in my new home this year and will plant something as thanks to you <3 A Hydrangea seems fitting :) I love them also and they're very popular in the UK! Thank you again x

We miss you! Hoping you are doing well 😊

Hey ray! Miss you friend! Ive been following you since i was probably 14 or 15 years old, 29 now... would you ever consider making a tiktok channel? Theres so many youths that would so strongly benefit from your knowledge!

Hi ray, I plan on doing something similar to how you created the praxxus cherry: create my own cherry tomato variety. By the way, did you ever find an old timey strawberry to grow?

What sorts of squash have you grown? I plan on trying to grow pumpkins and tomatoes next gardening.

Hi ray, have you ever grown bushel, bottle, or birdhouse gourds? Just thinking about growing one and some of your seeds too which is partly why I'm curious. I hope your doing well.

It's been so long Ray, i just hope that you are well and in good health and happy. I remember watching your channel for the first after lookng for a video through hot peppers then i started to watch for other grow tips and finally, jus watched every single video just hang around with you. Though i find it kind of weird as we never met but i consider you a friend ! So like any old friend would do, i am just stopping by, hoping to get some news from you and hoping you are still happy in your farm with mike and the pets. Much love ray, David

Hi Ray, how have you been? Did you close the little shop of seeds?

Hi Ray, please come back. We miss you so much ❤😢

Thanks for all you do, Ray! Your videos and seed shop have been a blessing to so many people... myself included. :)

We miss you hope you decide to make more videos again one day always injoyed them
