we’re growing a lot of food in a very tight space and it’s getting harder to walk around a quick solution is pruning especially when it comes to zucchinis with limited space they are best grown vertically and by pruning the lower leaves you’re not only saving space but you can also prevent disease like powdery mildew bush beans are great for container growing but sometimes the leaves and stems can overhang taking up a lot of room by using steaks at the edge of the containers you can grow them upright clearing the pathway if you have limited space and you want to grow all types of squash including binding squash one way to grow them is vertically you can cut the lower leaves and this won’t affect the plants at all by cutting the bottom leaves you’re improving air flow and allow the plants to focus its energy and producing more fruits if you have a lot of space to work with you don’t need to do this and just allow the plant to grow as is but for us we have a limited amount of space to work with so pruning and growing vertically allows us to grow more food and less space in the past we rarely practiced pruning but ever since we started doing it more often we reduce the amount of disease and P problems in our garden

Great information very appreciated and showing how to do that is wonderful! Thank you! Blessings on your growing season Kiddo! 🌻🐛Carolyn in Ohio 🌿💚🙏💕
Plus the squash leaves are eatable. Just found this out and plan on trying them in stirfry.
Also, pruning clears a path for the little pollinators ❤❤
Thank you. 😊
Do you ever get cucumber beetles?? They already ruined my squash
Lindo e bem cuidado 👏🇧🇷
See us Africans eat those yummy leaves.
How do you keep the pests and birds and things away from your fruits and vegetables?
Wow I can’t touch the zucchini leaves without gloves they’re so itchy!
I blanch the leaves and throw them in the freezer to go in soup.
Waw
Hi sir! I love your gardening content. I live in Washington State and I feel so inspired with your vegetable garden. I actually started some a lot of pepper varieties because of your pepper harvest videos. Sadly, it’s summer here and my plants are stunted in growth and I’m not sure why but I figured it’s the cheap soil that I just purchased from the garden center. Are you able to make a series on soil mixture?
Джунгли😮😊
I´m still learning every day by watching your videos. What a blessing, thank you so much.
Thanks for the great advice! I am thinking of growing my zucchini vertically
❤what are you using for ties for holding plants.
Governments should allow every person land to do this, to slow down pollution and all of the hard ships, seriously, it’s possible. Imagine every family feeding themselves of the land, that’s a win win for everyone..yes? But “they” are willing to put you through 12 years of schooling for the workforce, another 4 or 6 depending on your path, that still leads you to the firm of slavery and carrying the unending debt.
Parabéns muito lindo
I prine yearly and started vertical with squash
Helps birds assist with pest control. I haven't found this helps with mildew, fungi, though.
Great tips🙏
Beautiful
Wow! The garden looks great! Enjoy!
Thank you.👍🏼🙏
I so wish someone in the Southern Cali's Upper High 🏜 Farmer, be it small to medium, would make a YT on how to grow veggies & fruits…..PLEASE. I've tried to do research in this Valley & nothing. We so need help. I know I do 😢. Peace be with us all 🙏. "Isa"
