    This is an outstanding, must-watch gardening video. Soooo good. I've come to the same conclusions over time. But this was a super summary, and a lot of good specific recommendations besides. Thanks!

    I grew Buchwheat as a test, planted it first of August (arkansas) and harvested it today, from a whooping 28 grams of seeds, I collected about five pounds, so that will be my seed in the spring.
    I tried some late sweet corn planted at the same time, it wasn't happy with me, stunted, only about 18" tall and deer didn't help it..
    You're an inspration to try diferent things..

    Let’s be honest, David The good. We all know you grow children best.

    I spot your large, white 12 (15?) passenger van in the background. As a fellow owner, it’s hard to miss one.

    In all seriousness, this is good, practical info. I grow green beans and white potatoes very easily in my soil. Barely have to think about it. So I do lots! They are my stable crops.

    Yamis can be little hard to digest. super cooked is best. some Mulberries are subject to late frosts, and the deer love the leaves and birds love the fruit, but I love the birds. they are also a pain to harvest and process. But good cultivars are reliable heavy producers. Looking forward to getting some cuttings and potatoes from you to try in central GA. Thanks. Vianda Puertoriqueña.

    I've had 1-2 feet of water covering my gardens since Wednesday night. Going down slowly. Any suggestions as to do now? I have a very young 12" tall fig, raspberry, mulberry, blackberry, Florida cranberry, bananas, moringa, pigeon peas, and assorted veggies. Will any survive? I currently have moccasins and gators all over the place so will be another couple days before I can get in. And I'll have guns blazing when I do. LOL. Just praying I don't have to completely start over. Good thing is it's flooded with cow pasture and creek water.

    Yummy black eyed peas! A staple here in Louisiana cooked with some bacon and eaten with cornbread. Collards are delicious cooked with some smoked ham or chopped raw bacon. I love pan browned large sections of okra in some real butter. Brown slowly turning often, then at the end raise the heat a bit, spinkle with Cajun seasoning, onion and garlic powder, cover and turn off heat and toss around in pan to coat with flavor and let sit for a couple of minutes. Great for breakfast or a snack. If you want okra, pole beans, or cucumbers without tilling just dig a series of holes with a spade shovel or post hole diggers, mix removed dirt with some rich soil, black kow or compost, and for the climbing plants put poles in end holes, one in the middle, and stretch some twine between them. Angle end poles away from center if using saplings and stretch twine tight between them. Weave in more twine as needed for a nice trellis. You can have these planted with a trellis in under an hour. Easy! When removed nobody can tell a garden grew there.

    Wish I could grow some in Utah. We have 'em in Japan and they just grow like weeds all over. I think there's a more cold tolerant Chinese variety but I have no idea how to get ahold of it. The little bulbils are great over steamed rice. It's called mukagohan and its one of my favorites.

    Moringa trees are perfect for Florida drought tolerant likes sandy soil and if it freezes it die back and regrows it is medicinal and a superfood can be eaten raw in soups salads soups or powdered as a vitamin they grow fast and can be grown from cuttings it grows in Arizona and a California and loves hot weather

    I garden the Way nature does it. I simply cast LOCAL seeds in the area that is best suited for my desired vegetables. Then I cover with leaves and compost as it starts to germinate. No ROWS, No raised beds, No chemical fertilizers or chemical pesticides. DON'T BABY ANYTHING. It only produces WEAK PLANTS. My most successful vegetables are Moringa, Mung Beans, Amaranth, Cassava and sweet potatoes. In my area of the Philippines I have YEAR ROUND harvesting.
