Travis, last year I planted yellow doll watermelons as a pollinator to a seedless variety (chubbiness).
The disease pressure was so severe that I didn't think any watermelons would be harvested. Fortunately, the plants that survived produced a good harvest of very sweet melons (generally drier here in mid-MO zone 6A in October and that's what you need for a sweet melon).
It's risky, I set orange and yellow jubilee tomatoes at the end of June. I'm in zone 6. I also have straight eight cucumbers and sugar snap peas about 3 inches tall. It'll be worth it if we have a warm fall season. I guess I'm one of the I just have to plant something type, lol. Never tried fall corn, may give it a go. Thanks.
What is the best spray for watermelon bugs?
Last time I was at our local nursery, they had a lot of tomato plants…some pretty tall. Since I had such a disaster early summer for tomatoes, maybe I'll pick up a few determinate ones and try for fall tomatoes. Thanks for the idea.
You win some, you lose some, some you get rained out. LOL!
Could do a pallet garden with containers maybe plant a few future varieties you would like to plant to test them
I'm about to experiment with Fall potatoes, Travis. I have some that I haven't canned that are starting to get just a little soft. I'm Thinking about just planting the whole potato instead of cutting eyes this time of year. My plant date from Clemson is from July 15th to the end of the month. What do you think? It sure would be nice to dig some tater's in the cool in November.
Travis. Update on the cover crops. Army worms have wiped out my sudan but haven’t touched my soybeans.
Thanks for all of the great information. I'm taking a break recovering from our spring planting and harvest. We've got peppers growing and doing well. The garden looks so bare now though. I'm sure that I'll end up planting for fall.
When do u know when honeydew & cantaloupes r ready to b picked????
Thanks for the lowdown Travis I'm putting sweet potato slips everywhere cut off my first plantings here in Florida and I'm glad you reminded me to start my determinate tomatoes for the fall 🙂
Alright, alright, allllright ! Another timely video with great information for late summer/ fall planting. Just what I needed. Like some others my Spring planting got washed out with heavy rains so, it's time to plant peas and pole beans here in lower Alabama. Thanks Travis!!! May God bless.
Travis, I live in Zone 8A, when do I plant onion seeds for fall planting. 162 or 338 trays? Thanks Don.
Do some grain corn videos
Interesting tidbit, I had some tomato starts left over that I had no where to plant and no one wanted, I started seeds for 23 varieties this year (I know overkill!!), so I tossed them in the compost pile to hopefully become some good soil for next year. Well, it looks like I may be harvesting my fall tomatoes from the compost bin. Several of them have taken root and look great! No blooms yet, but I am watching them and hoping for the best! If I get nothing, I really haven't lost anything!!
My garden did okay tomatoes squash didn't do all that Good cause all the rain down in Bama but others did really well
travis great info to share. but i will have to call you out for the second time you called it OKRA not OKRIE.lol i planted OKRIE up here on cape cod and it's getting big first time for me.stay safe.
JOHN
my frost date is oct 23 thr
So, what do ya say, we spend a little time in the garden? Alright, alright, alright!!!
Travis, all these are good suggestions but you left out all my usual.
Cabbage,kale, lettuce and my all time have to have in the fall TURNIPS!!!!
Have a ? I bought Kentucky wonder pole beans from you. I live in 5b, they germinated well. I thought they were gonna grow very tall and I would need a cattle panel for trellis. They never really grew very tall, started vining gd. I do have beans growing on them and picking here now there. We're they supposed to get approx 5-6 ft High? Nancy from Nebraska love your channel.
I live in zone 5 might be B maybe be A…not sure. Im almost in VT. ANYWAY, we have had so much rain that I'm fighting with my garden to get any type of produce and I totally need that produce I've invested so much this spring to redo the whole entire Garden including electric fence to keep the critters out. I know I can't grow more summer squash zucchini stuff like that kale, collards things like the brassicas there is not enough time for me to get watermelon or cantaloupe and that stinks because I'm not getting the yield that I'm I need desperately
I’m in SE Louisiana. Zone 9A. My cucumbers dried up and before that I noticed I had worms in my last few cucumbers I harvested. Can I plant it again. The rain and heat is ridiculous right now.
Interesting that you say things will grow faster for a fall crop than a spring-summer crop.
Here in my part of Southern Ontario (6b), the weather turns really fast in the spring, early May is generally frost-free but quite cold, and then if late May isn't summer like, June definitely will be. So if we plant our warm weather crops in mid-May they might have a few cool days during the first few weeks but then once they're established and starting to set fruit it should be nice and warm. They'll probably be a bit slow going during the indoor seedling stage and hardening off period though. My melons were struggling this spring in the greenhouse with temperatures inside there being in the high 40s to low 50s most of the time.
For the late fall crops, the seedlings should germinate and get going really quick, but might slow down as the plants are maturing because although our Octobers are almost always frost free, they'll still be pretty cool. But also, the fall crop will start with a day length of 15 hours but end with only about 10-11 hours, while the spring crop will be experiencing around day lengths of 15 hours pretty much the whole time.
I did plant several warm season crops "late" (over here, that means late June to late July) though, so we'll see how long they take.
Thanks, Travis. I always learn from your videos. Sometimes I just need a voice of reason, when I’m over thinking the garden. Thanks for sharing your vast knowledge!
My 2.0 collards are coming back from last year. Not from seeds but the roots I left in a pot
