I can't wait to watch your new videos. I'm constantly checking. Love the information
Rabbit livers cooked in olive oil with garlic. The problem is you'd have to have a big bunch of rabbits to make a meal.
In Sacramento County, we have to get our fall transplants and seeds in by late August or early September as by mid-October it can be cold enough that the growth slows down a bunch. Getting that one good month of growth in the low to mid-90s (short time during the day with those temps) gives a proper head start. Lots of what was planted in the raised bed will be ready just before Thanksgiving. Currently have Daikon, beets, chard, onions, gai lan (Chinese brocolli), bok choy, carrots, spinach, and small radishes. The lettuce seed must have been too old to come up.
Just started cleaning tree debris from hurricane Ian. Put off planting until after it passed.
I needed this! I’m going to install drip in my raised beds in the spring.
Thanks for doing a video on drip irrigation. Much appreciated.
Good basic information show. Once you've installed some lines and you're tooled up, it's not so intimidating. That line of fittings from Drip Depot has never let me down. I also keep plenty of goof plugs and a small tube of silicone caulk on hand. Do you have a backflow preventer at the well head?
have you ever taught about starting an asparagus patch?
You had more than a little breeze on this day. 😀 Carrots, lettuce and broccoli have been all been planted and the hinged hoop house is ready to go. Expecting a frost tonight. Garlic goes in Oct 15th. You have a good selection of brassicas you planted.
Yeah, I think I would trade being able to grow the good tomatoes, for being able to plant an actual fall garden now.. My season is basically over after tonight.. My brassicas will be ok for a few more weeks but everything else is coming out this weekend.. My fall crops have to be in the ground by the first week of August or they won't have enough time to finish before the cold weather hits.. Looks like you're going to have a nice harvest in a couple months.. I'm looking forward to watching it grow..
I'm using the 8mil from hoss tools and its constantly giving me problems leaking and i'm using the same pressure reducer your using, thinking about switching to thicker tape.
You had some fine help with that young gardener. It's good that your son's are interested in the garden. Unfortunately some of them grow out of that and you have to make them help in the garden, I'm sure you won't have that problem.
I have cabbage, broccoli, onions, collards, mustard, turnips and kale.
Hi Travis. Good Job Sir! Learned a lot. Back when you were requesting comments on the raised bed gardens, I just wanted to note that a lady that has a Youtube channel called "Homestead Heart", I think is the name, is from Georgia and she had big trouble with Voles digging up from underground into her raised beds and eating a substantial amount of her sweet potatoes from underneath. She lamented that she did NOT put hardware cloth in the bottom before she filled the raised beds with soil. She is faced with emptying them of soil and applying the wire mesh hardware cloth in the bottom, then putting the soil back into her raised beds. maybe not an issue for you. Cheers, Chuck.
Rascally Rabbits!
Having as many valves as possible is worth the extra $ in my opinion.
What are you talking about worms chewing on your tape? Lol
I got megaton cabbage and tried them last year…. gurney's right? Hey next time you shop gurney's would you please try the gotta have it sweetcorn? I know it's a bit pricey but it doesn't disappoint
I have broccoli, collards, lettuce, and carrots growing in my raised bed gardens.
Oh yeah Travis, one more thing Sir about the raised bed garden. I liked your plan to have the fill tested. If there is only one thing you could test, pH would be most important. You could test that right now at home to get an idea where you are at pH wise to address it before you plant.
Hey Travis we garden in Texas. You are so awesome and informational. I have learned so much from you videos. Thank you for all your help. Also we wish you could loose the sunglasses so we could see you! ❤
I have been having the opposite problem with the drip tape – the 8mil is so soft & flexible that when I go to add it to the mainline it just folds & crumples. so I prefer the 15 mil which seems the be more rigid & holds its shape better.
I do appreciate your going through the whole process – it’s nice to see how other people do it so I could pick up some tips on how to do it better!
It's wonderful to see Titus helping you in the garden. More children need to be taught the life lessons provided by gardening….patience, perseverance, responsibility, and how to handle failure. BTW, I have a great recipe for rabbit stew.
I would like to see you do a demonstration of a wide row plot market garden style.
How often do u flush the system??
Im still using my old pvc pipe…waited on your raised bed stuff…but now garden is full of plants so SPRING….
Titus says he's going to work barefooted you have some good help Travis God bless Yall
Love that drip tape saves so much time in the garden!
You are inspiring me!
