    I live in the Joshua Tree area and had one of these planted in my backyard last year. The contractor told me it was a Palo Verde, but I noticed it looked very different from the wild Palo Verde trees around. It's definitely growing slowly and is too young to flower. I can't wait for it to become a strong large tree. Pesky rabbits have been eating the leaves though because the tree is still small and some branches hang low.

    • @thefiresidefarm

    Hi, yes you absolutely can grow citrus. Keep it in pots, that way you can bring them into your home, greenhouse or makeshift enclosure. I’ve been growing citrus for years here in the mid willamette valley in Oregon. With each year, my girls produce more and more. I have Meyer lemon, lime, bergamot, mandarin, Thai lime,satsuma cocktail grapefruit etc. as they out grow their pots of course I repot into larger ones. I have a Meyer lemon on the ground, she really doesn’t like it and protested by stopping production for one year!!!! She gets s teepee type greenhouse made of thick plastic. When the temperature drops below 33 I put a heat lamp in with her. Ok, now go ahead and get growing 🤩

You may try a pool noodle with tape on it?....but consistent rubbing over a long period of time on ANY material will eventually put a hole in it. The plastic strips that makes the shade cloth just slowly deteriorate over time in the sun and wind. But hopefully you can extend the life of it!

    I love your style !! 😀 Although tying twine around a few stems seems obvious, there's actually a trick to it (in my experience). An ordinary knot or bow tends to be too loose and the plant might fall out as it dries and shrinks (maybe, certainly not always). So an herbalist friend of mine showed me how to wrap the twine very tightly around the stems five times, create a loop, thread through the loop, THEN tie a knot or bow to seal the deal. I've never had a problem since!!

I planted tepary beans, malabar spinach and amaranth this summer - all seeds from Native Seed Search. I did not plant any squash or melons due to terrible squash bugs the past few years. The tepary beans and malabar spinach are doing quite well. Only a few amaranth seeds sprouted, and the birds pulled out all but one that I covered with a cage. Oh well, will try again next year. Congratulations On your engagement! Have fun wedding planning!

    Exactly the opposite conditions compared to where I live, the Netherlands. So far this year in 2024, we had so much rain and clouds and unusual low temperatures that practically none of my flower bulbs and seeds were willing to grow. And what did pop up was not strong enough to stay upright. Just a few days ago it was 61F which is very cold for the time of the year. Only at the end of June seeds were willing to germinate in pots at the most sunny spots in my garden, but it might be too late to see any of them bloom. When it rains it rains for 10 hours straight or more, and then there is not a single clear patch of blue sky. So far this Spring and Summer the longest stretch of consecutive days without rain was 3 days. The lack of sunshine is the biggest problem. We are in the middle of the summer, but in terms of temperature and sunshine the forecasts are still not looking good. After one or two better days we get even more rain and more low temperatures. Thanks for sharing 👍

      @@thefiresidefarm It is an unusual amount of rain. More than twice the average. The sun is heating up the oceans a lot more, and that is creating a lot more clouds up north and far south. And here in Western Europe, such as the UK, the Netherlands, Germany, we received every major cloud and very little sunshine. And large cloud formations are still being formed above the ocean, but when I look at the weather app it looks as if there are some gaps in the clouds. Today is nice too, but for tonight it is expected to be raining again. I think that your conclusion about the heat is absolutely right. Plants and the micro organisms, which might even be more important, have more problems with the heat as with drought. The ideal soil temperature is somewhere between 70 and 85 Fahrenheit. Basically what we humans prefer in terms of climate is pretty much the same for plants and trees and the micro organisms, generally spoken. They also prefer a temperature difference between day and night that is too big. Shade cloth and a thick one ft. layer of mulch is an excellent solution.

    I don't know if you have already tried it or someone else has suggested it, but if you have a down time/season for your beds, you could try letting the hens in to go after the bugs. They will have a blast going after every bug in there if you let them and even if they don't completely take out your bug problem, they will definitely decrease the numbers you are dealing with. My hens used to go nuts in my raised bed going after pill bugs, ants, millipedes, and anything else crawling on or in the dirt! I love how wonderful your garden looks and just hate seeing the bugs get to some of your harvests before you have a chance to enjoy them!

      @@thefiresidefarm Ahh, I did have a feeling that was the case! Well, I'm not sure how effective it is against squash bugs and rollie pollies, but you could try the old water with a squirt of Dawn dish soap method. I know it is super effective against aphids and white flies and other similar nasty pests. Best of all, safe for people and animals! I've used it on my strawberries this year for a white fly infestation and within an hour they were all dead, but the berries still safe to eat after a little rinse! Of course, it only takes care of adult bugs when it works on them(as far as I know. Maybe the larva too?), but it might help reduce the breeding population for some of your bugs so your plants will last a bit longer before giving in to the bugs. Wish you the best of luck, no matter what you end up doing! I couldn't imagine keeping up a full garden year round, but it sounds like that would provide an amazing amount of food for you and your family!! I really need to go through more of your videos!!

    Thank you for this information! I've been trying to figure out what was happening. I have two Renee's Tasmanian Chocolate - Heirloom Tomato Plants in a 5 Gallon grow bag (I know too small), along with two Basil Plants. Both plants look like this for a while. For Plant A, after it produced it's first set of flowers, it actually has been able to do much better and is now at it's 2nd and 3rd set of flowers (with lots of flowers at each set). The plant leaves have uncurled much more, although some shoots are in strange directions lower down. Plant B on the other hand, the leaves are much more curled for the entire plant, but some how managed to produce a set of flowers. One of them even fruited is somehow the same size as plant A fruit that has come in, even though it flowered after. So maybe mine somehow is part of the 5% that may make it through? But definitely a bizarre thing to try and figure out what's going on haha -- but now it makes sense so thank you! Since they seem to be both producing fruit, do you think it's fine to keep them both? Or should I remove plant B?

      Well I briefly spoke about it in another video..but it was a large failure so I didn't explore the topic much 🤣 We sunk 4x4 post about 4 feet in the ground, cemented the hole, and then attached a corner of the shade cloth to each post. It did not have any support in the middle and ended up sagging heavily. It was just too much surface area without enough support. Along with our very snady soil and the high winds we experience, it completely fell apart, which is why I had to contract it our to professionals to build a more sturdy support structure.

    Can be cured with horse grade ivermectin. Three treatments every two weeks. Dissolve in water and feed to infected plants. Three total treatments, once every two weeks.

    A shade net will stop leaf curl instantly, too much sun and the leaves curl up to absorb less sunlight. Pretty simple 👍

      @@O.G.MISFIT The day before yesterday I was with my neighbor who also grows tomatoes. I have an anti hail net over, my neighbor don't. Therefore, mines are lightly shaded.Hers are school examples, while at my place there are exactly 6 that have started to twist. Therefore, it is not sunlight. I firmly believe that this infection is transmitted by bugs, seeds but also by infected soil. There are soil disinfectants , I will definitely do it and start with new, fresh seeds.
