Anyone else hooked on Christian’s Youtube channel?

https://www.youtube.com/user/TheCfkingfish

If you haven’t seen his videos, I’ve been watching since dia uno and this dude’s leading the front on palmy vlogging.

Thought I’d bridge the blog-vlog platform, support his efforts and commerate the guy for the time he spends on these videos, his channel and his willingness to share the information he knows through this entertaining medium.

@cfkingfish lol hope this didn’t embarrass you, not my intention. There’s a bravery in what you do and I think it’s radical. Big ups bruddaman. Please keep the vids flowing.

    I am, I really enjoy his videos, they are very informative, actually have quality (a lot of palm videos I have seen were filmed using really low quality cameras with terrible audio), and he delivers the information very well. As a matter of fact, I sometimes use a video of his to show people palms. I say keep em up! :greenthumb:

    Christian is a good guy.  I bought some medemia argun and beccariophoenix alfredi off of him one time.  Another good group of YouTube palm videos comes from David Casella with Earth Works Jax.  Here are a few videos:

    I have been a subscriber of his channel for a couple years now. He knows his stuff.

    5 year high 42.2C/108F (07/06/2018)--5 year low 4.6C/40.3F (1/19/2023)--Lowest recent/current winter: 4.6C/40.3F (1/19/2023)

     

    I started getting into Palms about 4 months ago... The Palm Fiend is one of many different sources I’ve been getting info on palms from. I’ve been subscribed to him after watching 3 or 4 of his vids. :greenthumb:

    Christian is great I’m glad he has been keeping up with new videos  

    Christian posts here sometimes under CFKingfish.

    Another palm youtuber I watch is Justin McSweeny: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8mB5NEgjTnW0fNvB0mrqiQ

    Christian is a great guy. He stopped by our little plot of paradise to video one of my palms for his vlog. I'm always happy to help him in his endeavors.

    I just happened to log on and saw this thread. I am glad everyone here enjoys them, I have many more to make. Meg has been very nice to let me film many of her palms just down the street from my house, I really appreciate it! 

    If anyone has any suggestions, I will try and accommodate. :)
