This video changed my perspective on summer gardening! I'm grabbing some sweet potato slips and hot pepper seeds this weekend. Thanks for the inspiration!
I grow everything in containers. My Malabar are growing in hanging pots. They're absolutely beautiful hanging down. And I agree, plant what grows for heat and drought and you'll have a greater production.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING, MAY GOD BLESS US ALWAYS , AMEN 🙏.

Thanks. I’ve learned a lot just watching this video
EXCELLENT CARE OF YOUR GORGEOUS GARDEN PLANTS, BEAUTIFUL WORK!! 😊CONGRATS FROM GREECE❤RESPECT
Where are the pictures?
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for this video. I can truly say, I have never heard of most of the plants and have no idea where you would even find them. I love growing peppers in containers. I grow a large variety of them. I would love to find the ground cherries and the spinach. I love planting edible plants and I’m certainly going to try and find some of the ones you mentioned. I don’t have a lot of full sun, but I do have a section of my house that gets afternoon sun. I also love the fact that you explain the size and type of pot to use. I grow Basil, Lemon Grass and peppers. Thanks again for all the great information.
Okra has the most beautiful flower in the vegetable garden.😊
Thank you so much! I’ve learned a lot about summer crops!!
Thanks
Thank you so much❤
And what to plant if June is very rainy ( heavy rain every day ) and cold ?
Honestly, most people don’t fail at container gardening because of the heat. They fail because they keep trying to grow spring vegetables in summer and then blame the sun.
My existing crops at present are eggplant, spinach, lemon grassprese cran berry, okra, wing beans, cowpea and chili's. True, they survived the scorching summer heat. My 100 hills eggplant is very productive. By the way all my vegetables are organically grown.
I love your videos, I have a tea channel sharing natural herbal teas and is surprise with the herbs that provides healing and health benefits. Your videos are very informative and helpful for herbal plants cultivation Thank you.
Good grief! Get to the point, ditch the sleepy time voice & speed it up.
best list I've come across
yup all last 5 crops in my garden.
all but roselle, purslane and malabar. been planting these for years now. zone 10b.
i have peppers that are 5 years old, growing them in my greenhouse , one can bring your peppers in the garage near a window cut back, water very lightly and bring back out in spring.
Planting okra, eggplant and hot peppers.💕💕
The videos of this garden is absolutely beautiful. So much fabulous information as well. I love how you show some cooking ideas as well.
If you grow Ground Cherries, make sure you pick up every fruit. Allowing just one to rot into the soil will ensure that the following year you will have dozens of ground cherry seedlings. Do not put overripe ground cherries into your compost unless you want dozens of ground cherries everywhere you use the compost. The most vigorous and fruitful ground cherry plants I have ever had are the ones that grew out of my compost 😁
Very helpful information! It’s amazing how many vegetables can thrive in hot weather when grown in containers. Thanks for sharing these tips.
Love okra and cow peas/purple hull/black eyed peas in the south we eat them on New Year’s Day for prosperity also cabbage happy trails
Thanks. I’ve learned a lot just watching this video

Where can I buy cowpeas near lemoore California USA
For the past 3 years I’ve had to replant beans, peas cowpeas etc never before have I ever had to replant so much. I have seed saved and bought new organic and it hasn’t grown

08:12 Growing cowpeas in a fabric grow bag is such a smart approach for hot weather
