August to October in most places..do not plant now IF you are expecting a harvest this year.
He did not mention that and he is not a gardener. A new gardener trying to help with.poor info.
Years ago my elderly neighbor in Dallas covered his vegetable beds with parking covers. They got early and late sun. Hail protection. He had a phenomenal garden and shaded him, too.
Wow, we learned a bunch from this video, Chris. Thank you so much and God Bless
Well said and well-done Chris. Perfect timing too, just getting ready to plant some pole beans, beets and parsnips.
I LOVE to garden. It gives me so much peace and it is such a great way to try mew foods. Its great to be prepared, but still take JOY in natures bounty and the wonder of miraculous growth of your plants and yourself.
Thanks Chris for bringing the late season plants 🪴 to our attention! I Remember Lettuce & parsley season is on the way! ☮️&🌱
Thank you Kris. I will try to plant around my other garden plants.
If you can make a hoop house, place a compost bin at one end which will generate heat to reduce chances of frost damage. Another option is to use incandescent Christmas lights around the inside of your hoop house for additional warmth when nighttime temperatures drop. Be creative, even used cooking oil lanterns can be used (with caution) for additional warmth. I’ve also thought about heating rocks or bricks for a few hours of heat (I haven’t tried this yet). Good luck and happy gardening!
Another excellent video. Thanks!!
I live in an apartment so this is not applicable to me but thank you for this anyway. When anyone prepares, it helps all of us by leaving fewer needing government help in the event of a crisis. I appreciate all you do.
Now is also the time to get a few seeds for next year’s garden.
Grow what you like to eat
I built my greenhouse and started planting for fall,
Great video Kris. Thanks for bringing us around, helping us focus on things we can’t control instead of things we cannot control. Sometimes it’s hard to know the difference.
Actually okra grows quite well in poorer soils. We fertilize once when planting and then when it's a few inches tall. The key is regular water and trimming the branch under off that you pick the okra from. Pick regularly as it encourages more okra.
This is a great idea, I might need to take some vacation days off!
Do you ever plant chia? Also plant garlic in fall for spring harvest. What about ginger or turmeric?
Good list. Do note that several of the crops you recommended are high in oxalates. Anyone at risk for kidney stones should limit spinach, amaranth, sorghum, and beets (including their greens). Lacinto kale is the variety lowest in ox. I'd add chives for flavoring and they are perennial.
Giveaway!
Thank you for this Kris. I'm growing in my apartment and now looking forward to trying some of these vegetables, some I have never heard of!
thanks for the video on planting in august. great
I'd add Bok Choy and Broccoli to this list.
what a great video, had some really good options given
Love parsnips boiled then with butter and honey
Love pickled okra ❤
Thanks for posting PRACTICAL information!!🙌👏🏻
Insects are decimating my amaranth 🤬 If I want to eat it how can I spray for insects????😫
I might have to turn to cannibalism
We've had to keep our goats in the garden area until we get the livestock enclosure built. It's amidst done!! Within the next couple weeks, I want the goats out of the garden and to be able to start getting it cleaned up and ready to use again.
Caterpillars went to town on my mustard and collard greens 😢 I am starting over with your advice. THANK YOU so much for this video 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽
At 9:45, I did not know that okra leaves are edible. Thanks for the information.
