Great Video 🫶🏽 What size bed is the one you have from Vegega?
Re the difference in pounds… didn't you remove that giant sweet potato patch? I wonder if you weren't harvesting the sweet potatoes in Oct in both 2020 and 2021? Thank you again for your highly informative videos!
Had mulberries in the ground for years. It’s a dwarf everbearing. So far maybe 5 this year. I’m thinking of cutting it down
If a larger luffa plant is spongey can you use it like an eggplant?
I got mulberries too! I love it. Thanks for the garden tips. And I love your arm covers! 😎🌱
Everything's looking great over there! As for the Roselle, this was also my 1st time growing them and so far I've harvested 3 times, and will harvest more today because they just keep growing and giving more! So far I've only made batches of tea with them, and we enjoy it refrigerated. It tastes like a mild fruit juice depending on how you sweeten it, or like cranberry if you don't add as much sugar. Going to make jam with the next harvest. Thanks for all you do and share!
My garden update. Trying potatoes and doing well, corn is about 1/2 that size. Pumpkins are making flowers but not producing?? Carrots, spinach, kale and radishes are doing great.
North Central Florida here: none of the seeds I put out in October germinated🤷
It's Friday, and that means….Wild Floridian! Yay!
Your plants, esp. flowers, are looking fabulous. And what! When I saw that strawberry flower in the intro, I had to rewind. My strawberries are starting OK, but no way are they close to flowering. You really have a green thumb. And wild sleeves – love those, links, please.
My little container garden has pushed 'pause' for these weeks. My Cavendish type bananas literally paused in the middle of the banana dance with new leaves out, but holding the cone shape since Ian. One Orinoco is growing, and has surpassed all its bigger cousins, I guess it is more a more resilient banana variety even though idk if I will like the fruit. My little potatoes came up while sheltering from Ian in the dark garage, maybe they like to sprout in the dark? And my sweet potatoes don't seem to understand that they are supposed to be 'curing', and are making slips in storage. Always something weird happening with my plant babies, but they are always entertaining. As are you, so thanks.
Trying the whole vegetable growing for fall (see, paying attention!). So potato, check. Lettuce and carrots, germinating. Brassicas, mixed bag – the only one that is doing great is a kohlrabi….which I have never tasted, but such an odd plant, I have to grow til the end.
My strawberries are flowering too! I have peppers, cherry tomatoes, bunching onions, spinach, mesclun, snow peas, pak choi coming up here North FL
Squirrels love Roselle calyxes
Do you put that mulch from the tree chips all over everywhere in your garden? Also do you plant the sweet potatoes under the dirt under the mulch, how far under the dirt?
After harvesting sweet potatoes where you had them, you said something like you roll it up they lay it back out..Do the roots still in the ground automatically grow again? Or do you plant new sweet potatoes also? What abt in bags, should I just put all the plants in the composter, or leave the roots in there, let them grow again? Do they stay alive thru the cold weather underground, Or should I keep them warm like I could put them in the sunporch for ones in the bags…??
Yes on the mulberries! Just walked out back yesterday after work and was like Whoah! Not mad about it, time to pick more mulberries 🙂
Do you think those black beans can overwinter and be "perennials", stem looks pretty woody solid. Maybe you just need to prune it.
I thought after the first freeze was the time to harvest sweet potatoes or when the vines start to start to die off. My strawberries are making new plants, is that normal for this time of the year?
Hi Jackie!! Love this time of year for my garden, less pests, also I have a ton of tomatoes in the ground that I started from seed over a month ago and they are in the garden, mostly kales and kohlrabi and regular potatoes are in the ground, it will be my first year to grow potatoes looking forward to harvesting them, also planted a bunch of carrots and beets and bush beans, have a great weekend!!🌱🌼🌻🌺
How do you get your Papaya to flower and produce on the lower trunk?
Hi Jackie. I lived in Vero Beach last year and grew red potatoes and they did great. I was not weighing product last year. I live in Sebring area this year and planted red potatoes that I harvested last year and they are also doing well. I have started hilling them. I have had very little luck with russet though.
My garden was basically a fight in September because of the white flies just moving from one plant to another!
hi, Jacqueline, So good to see your November garden. It is challenging to go from one season to the next. You mentioned planting the Cherokee Trail of Tears Black Beans from Seed Savers. You must be a lot warmer over the winter as I may have lots of colder days and don't see these making them through the January cold snap? Do you think these will grow now in Orlando through the winter?
I have eggplants and it’s the first time everr so I’m happy about that but haven’t had luck with strawberries, tomatoes or tomatillos. Pests go hard after them😢
I jus received some Roselle seeds I was planning on planting in spring! Yours are gorgeous! I am in Northern Florida originally from PA. I am super excited about book & planner! Everything I plant in pots does well. Really trying to grow in ground hard to keep moist it is sandy nothing does well😢 I am raising 3 of my grandchildren on fixed income. So I am really trying to grow. In summer I grew 10% of our food!
I have lots of lettuce, onions, garlic, beets & broccoli planted. I am out of containers. I have put lots of leaves chopped and put in ground anything else I could do before putting more plants in?
