Jenna i like your plastic cover for stating beets , where did you get them? Thanks
I planted pea plants, broccoli and cabbage a week ago in my raised bed here in Ohio. Covered them with row cover to keep the deer and rabbits out and they are doing great! Planting onions and remaining brassicas today! THanks for your videos Jenna! Keep em coming!!
Happy times its good to start early. Wishes to all people to try to growing their own back yard front yard or in little boxes of wooden or clays. Thanks great efforts with natures good natures we love bad 😷 natures need treatment. 😊
Hi Jenna, I am in ohio as well. The 2 crops I have the hardest time growing are lettuce and broccoli. Any suggestions on how to grow them successfully?
Hey Jenna! Thank you for sharing such helpful information! Before I transplant my brassicas, and later my tomatoes, do you add any organic fertilizer down in the hole first? I think I’ve seen you sprinkle some magic dust (lol) in the dirt first but I can’t find the videos where you said what it was.
Great video❤
So awesome to have a fellow Ohioan to follow on here. Your advice is invaluable and greatly appreciated 😊
Jenna, I just found your channel & love how much information you pack into each video. THANK YOU & GOD BLESS!
Video is a bit late for NC!!
All farming will be done indoors one day. Sad huh? 🇺🇲. But we'll grow 100 times more food and it will be greener, fresher and tastier! 🇺🇲
Love listening and learning new techniques and strategies. I’ve been a gardener for over 40 years and I’m still learning.
I'm in Washington State zone 6 . onions and spinach are planted today. Next week I'll get my potatoes planted. When is best time for butternut squash and yellow squash please . direct sowing
What type of wire do you use to support the fabric? I used fabric last year to protect my beans from beetles bur dudnt have a good support system. Thanks!
What part of Ohio are you in?
Clear, concise and informative. Thank you for sharing your expertise.
Exciting info bout lettuce and taters!
I love in Michigan and really appreciate your content. It’s so hard to find zone 6a content. Would love more on seeds you can start indoors! Off topic, but where did you get your overalls?! I love them!!!
Dark chocolate, Whisky and Black Coffee, did you forget Blue Cheese and/or Brie?
Those hoops you have at 14:24, did you make those or buy them? If you bought them, do you mind if I ask where from? Sorry if this has already been answered.
Great video. Super informative
Ooh, don't buy pesticide covered seed people, that will kill the soil microbiology
Hi guys (the lovely little lad, too!), am lóving your vibe and the getting dirty with Mother Earth.
Btw for pinning down fleece i use pegs like yours at the corners, but a single-leg peg-with-a-curl-at-the-top along ends and lengths. Plus sometimes canes between them to relieve wind pressure on the peg points.
I allow a few of the kales to go to seed and self-sow; many seedlings 8" high by mid March, then transplant if in awkward place.
Corn salad (lambs' lettuce) and winter purslane my favourite over-winter veggies. Arugula not quite so happy over winter but nice when it is.
🙏🏽 🌳🕊💚 🌱🌱🌱
Thanks for the info. I do wish you had mentioned the weeks before last frost for planting in addition to what month so that it was a little easier for my to apply the tips to my garden zone.
I LOVE your channel but could I PLEASE suggest 1 thing? You had SOOOOO much information and talked SOOO fast, that I had to constantly stop/pause to get the information down. I mean I stopped this at least 50 times to get it all down and since Im in zone 6A like you I find it very beneficial to glean from your guidelines. Other than that I LOVE LOVE LOVE your channel.
Oh darn mine are still seeds 😂
Great video once again. Thanks Jenna.
TY for the vid. I had trouble with your link to your Amazon store. Would love to buy from it if you can update it for all us watchers.
As ALWAYS……another informative video. Look at that sweet baby boy! I have 2 grandsons (4&6)that are eager to learn gardening, and it makes me so proud. This was great info since yesterday was in the 60’s, and today it’s raining snowing and 38 degrees in MI zone 6B
I love the idea of the mini green house! thanks for sharing
I planted early this year. The frost didn't get the seedlings, but the chickens did! I left a gate leaning against a fence that they were able to land on.
This is great info, I've always been confused about planting out X number of weeks before last frost because our temps here in NE Ohio swing so wildly in spring. Thanks for the tips! Also, we've been having crazy winds here, 50-70 mph so I've been keeping thigs inside so they don't blow away. I'm ready to start getting things hardened off!
I love it that gardening is more important than fingernails, they do clean better with a yummy in my tummy, that was Mom's saying, to this day we all garden gloveless.
I a big fan of legume inoculate, as I cover crop extensively, cool crop and hot weather too Zone 9B
Adding to the conversation. I so appreciate Jenna's advice. My thoughts are about all the variability. There is Zone and temperature. Where I live, while I think Zone, Temperature and maybe even rainfall is adequately considered. I think all the planting time videos and my personal experience suggest that the variable of Sunshine needs more consideration as I live in something similar to the London fog.
Thanks Jenna. It’s still too cold here in nw Nevada desert to put anything out 😔. I have learned to be patient lol. 👵🏻👩🌾❣️
I leave some of my carrots to grow through the second year and you will get tons of seeds. One carrot can produce quite a bit of seed. I did this the first year I ever planted carrots and now I never have to seed / plant them. They seed themselves. But if you live where there is Queen Anne’s Lace or Poison Hemlock, you may want to gather the seed and plant yourself on year three. Watch for cross pollination as well. I don’t live where these plants are so, it is very easy for me. Planted them once and now every year, I can harvest carrots without having to plant them. Love that! And they make beautiful while flowers for my neighbor’s bees.
Another tip for those that may want fresh greens when you don’t have a place in the house or a green house. I bought carts with a top and bottom shelf that are on wheels. I place my beloved plants that I don’t want to lose over winter in pots (the ones I know will for sure freeze) and place the pots on the carts. I roll these carts in and out of my storage area daily so they can have sun in winter. I grow spinach, Swiss chard, onions, lettuce, parsley, etc as well on these carts. It is so refreshing to be able to go to my carts in winter, select some greens, go in and cook a Spanish omelette, etc. I never have to buy any of that during the winter now. Then in the summer, no more rolling the carts in and out. But really, it was very easy to roll them in and out and it gave me way more joy knowing I had fresh food all year.
Put my seeds down
Super helpful, thank you!
Very helpful! Now I can get those celery plants hardened off and out in my garden. I did not know I can plant them yet. We have just past our last frost date. The celery are so large they are running out of room.
I am so glad I found your channel, Jenna! I’m outside of Pittsburgh and your videos are perfect for my zone and my clay soil! I also love your humor! Thanks for all of the great help in making my garden a success!
