I’m in South Florida (Coral Gables, Miami) whenever I put my “full sun” plants in actual full sun, they’re toasted haha it’s sooo hot 🥵
How do I keep flowers and veggies alive!
I bought some of your daughter's seeds. Please thank her for the seeds and fantastic 'package art' !
Wanted to learn, was just annoyed.👎🏼👎🏼
I currently live in Washington state. My tomatoes replanted themselves this year. Looks like I will be growing these Everglade tomatoes once I move to Florida. Anyone know how Blueberries do in Northwest Florida? I was planning on bringing a cutting from my amazing bush here but is it worth it?
San Marzano tomato did good until April in a hydroponic setting South Florida Zone 10A , the only caveat they are sensitive to touch , they will easily fall off the vine if accidentally touched or a strong Breeze comes through , they are low on acidity and delicious , as I was going in and out the garden I was snacking on 3-in Long firm tomatoes .
Wow! How genius is this advice?!? I've lived in Florida 30 years trying to grow various things with minimal results. Never even HEARD of a Seminole pumpkin or these Florida cherry tomatoes. Truly an "Ah-ha" moment. Going to try again. Thanks!
LOL 😂 ,….. this is Great . Love Ya’ll videos………. Awesome 👏
Wow very interested video . It applies everything i live in florida and i have plants fruits😊
this is awesome! new to FL
But where to buy seeds or plants… only non native plants available in nurseries?
I don't have to do much to tomatoes except use BT and pick the big ones early so they don't split or get eaten. Just ripen in a bag.

I live in the Miami area and plant cherry tomatoes in September. We have fruit by January and lots of them right thru April. Larger size tomatoes are not as productive so hardy worth the effort. In May I sow okra and it does well into the Falll months.
I'm curious of you walking us through from the beginning. Choosing a shady but dry spot in your yard for South Florida vegetable's. What do we add? How much of each soil and mulch? Any additional items to be mixed in? What should the watering timer be set for? 1 time a night for 25 minutes to spray?
I'm a Jacksonville native. I travel for work now, so my garden gets zero attention now. Sweet potato and collard greens and a few other things from a few seasons back keep on thriving. I'll go and harvest a bit when I'm home, but they get absolutely no upkeep. Fantastic. His advice goes for pretty much anywhere…plant what wants to grow where you are!
Where do I get the everglades tomatoe? I live in orlando
Thank you for all the great information. New to Florida and to gardening. Can all these be planted directly into sandy soil or will they require pot soil to start them?
Thank you.
"I used to grow such great tomatoes back up in my Yankee hell hole" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Seed packet instructions do not apply to Florida. Grow the right items, use raised beds to get off the clay and sand, and it’s almost too easy.
I live in East Orlando and we have plantains and loquats and one small tangerine tree plus a guava tree, but the fruit always seem to end up on the ground spoiled. I don't know what to do with that tree.
My father has also casually grown melons, pumpkins, papaya and lettuce without putting any effort into it. The lettuce by the way was a variety that thrives in Puerto Rico. We'd tear off some of it and the rest would keep growing like a weed.
With your books I hope to encourage more growth and to propagate a wider variety of foods we can actually live off of now that we're thinking of survival as opposed to growing as a hobby. So far I have your book on survival gardening. I figure if we put more effort into planting and gardening we can produce our own fresh food.
Lol "Yankee hell hole" 🤣🤣🤣 So glad I moved to Florida.
You are awesome. True wisdom right here. Grow the plants suited to your home not what you want lol
Hello, David-The-Good. Do you have a book(s) about Oahu, Hawaii, similar to the one you've written about Florida?
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
It’s a horrible place to grow.
Me, “than why is it so green?”
Are you still in Florida Dave or in Alabama? I found your channel not to long ago. Just confused. I'm buying your 3 Florida books this weekend.
South Florida Gardner here. I grow the Everglades tomato’s, snake beans really well here. I grow all varieties of micro dwarf tomatoes which give different tastes of small salad tomatoes. They grow all year round. Can’t grow squash or cucumbers because of powdery mildew. Even the Seminole pumpkin succumbed to it. What grows best for me are greens. Collards, turnips, mustard greens and even spinach mustards and tatsoi grow beautifully here for most of the year. Also the Provider bush green bean grows great here.
Do yardlongs produce in our winters? I’m in 10b.
Wow thanks this is some really helpful information. Green beans here I come!
Always enjoy your videos lol. Thanks for the knowledge and laughs 🙂
