Windbreaks: the history, function, and benefits of diminished wind speeds
Windbreaks, also known as shelter belts, play a crucial role in protecting the land from powerful Midwestern winds. Traditionally used on rural lands, windbreaks are living barriers that intercept wind thereby reducing velocity and impact. During this week’s Gardenbite, Horticulture Educator Emily Swihart looks back at the history of Roosevelt’s ‘tree army’ and planting efforts in response to the Dust Bowl, provides best practices for maximizing results, and encourages communities to manage the urban forest to capture windbreak benefits.

    Do I need to increase the bat house wood slat spacing between the wood slats for Big Brown bats? Also I’m in Orwell OH 44076 (NE Ohio) should I paint my bat house just lighter of pure black? Summer temps average 82-93F but “FEELS LIKE” temps are much higher sometimes by even 10 degrees. Also I got a 4 chambered plywood 26”x17”x5.5” bat house from the Nature Conservancy, “Bat Blitz”. Lots of tiny splinters since the grooves were cut into plywood. Can’t sand it smooth no matter how hard I try. Will it be ok w/tiny splinters? Thank you

    I used to work at a commercial tree nursery. We regularly bought up adjacent cornfield and convert to tree land. We had a 10ft tractor hitch mower for cutting down all the leftover corn stalks. Talk about a fast way to dull a mower blade! By the time we were sharpening the blades in winter, they were completely rounded off. Pretty incredible.

I will have to try the lemon cucumber next year! My kids are cucumber fiends and nine plants wasn't enough to keep up with their fresh consumption, never mind having any left for pickles.

    Many of us are burned out and I couldn’t think of bringing in plants to babysit. Matter of fact I’m hoping to start all seedlings in the greenhouse next spring. The mess inside is too much and the bugs. The only pepper that is too slow is Tabasco and you don’t need very many 😅. I will probably harvest everything today as we will be close to frost tonight in WI Z5.

    I had to pause for a minute. BLESS YOU for mentioning the PTSD aspect. (Just bug related ... like previously existing PTSD wasn't enough.) I probably still have bedbugs (very recently discovered - while finding out I'm anemic with a symptomatic fibroid on my uterus --> I am too exhausted to really clean) and am sleeping elsewhere. The only thing that's keeping me from scratching the hell out of myself is "You didn't feel that when you were sleeping with the fuckers. IT'S NOT REAL." But I still check multiple times a day - my clothes, my hair, my island of safety ... not to mention my eyes are constantly roaming. And I still feel like I'm living squalor. But based on what I've seen, I think I caught it before they really took hold ... so ... fingers crossed. Apologies in advance if there are more lengthy comments. I've told almost no one about them.

    Wow, this video was absolutely amazing! The production quality was top-notch, and the content was just perfect. I especially loved watching this because I had a rough season-most of my crops didn’t make it. This really helps wrap up the growing season and helps those of us that had failed crops enjoy visually what we were missing out on😆. My cucumbers were nearly all male, and when the few finally did grow at the end of the season, they were completely infested with pickle worms, so I ended up with nothing. And the 'Dark Knight' was flowering beautifully, but locusts or grasshoppers ate all the flowers off at night. I planted three seeds and ended up with exactly three seeds due to the bugs! This video was such a relief and inspiration. You all have great chemistry, and it's so much fun to see you together in the same room. I think it would be fantastic to do a future grow along with a 50/50 split between vegetables and flowers. For the flowers, it would be awesome to see some herbal or medicinal plants like Hyssop or the toothache plant. Something that has multi uses, pretty but usable. There's so much to learn from those! Keep up the amazing work-this was pure perfection!

    I started European varieties last year and lost one so got a replacement as it needs a pollinator. I think it will take a few years as they sleep, creep and leap. I have them in a fenced in home orchard and can’t wait for hazelnuts! Good to know they can take late frost. I wonder if Surround clay would ward off diseases/pests?

    That was rather poetic ;) I grow styrian pumpkins for one purpose(besides the seeds). They keep the rabbits and deer at bay with their spiky stems. The difference between canned and fresh pumpkin is not enough to grow them. The difference between a fresh picked and store bought year-old, cold-storage, mealy apple is a universe a difference.

    Awesome, it was so great to see a live taste test of the toothache plant! I actually grew it for the first time this year too, and while it's an amazing plant, it definitely needs constant watering and didn’t handle the dry conditions too well. Watching everyone's reactions was both hilarious and insightful-it's awesome to see real feedback on how these plants we grow taste, feel, and look. It’s something that's often missing in gardening videos. I totally relate to thinking I was having an allergic reaction when I first tried it-nothing bad happened, but it was pretty scary at first! I found that the bugs in my area did like to eat the leaves so had to use slug control too. They grow really fast once established and the bullseye variety I got looks great. I now have a bunch of seeds so looking forward to growing more next year. I’d love to try making a tincture from it too with an alcohol base. Then you can use it year-round to treat mouth sores. Yes, please would love to see more videos like this! It is the unique plants that really keep me hooked on gardening so seeing unusual things like this is brilliant. LOL love the bloopers' best part 😁

    In Indian stores in Dallas they sell two different types of ginger. One bigger which is usually conventional. Another smaller yellow root which is usually sold organic. The smaller root with yellower inside has sharp taste with intense flavor. It has less water content too. If you are replacing that with bigger root in your recipe, you have up less of it.

    Looks like there are two types of galangal. Thai cooking needs greater galangal. How do you identify the greater galangal plant? I bought one plant this year. I want to know if it is greater galangal or lesser galangal ?

    • @IllinoisExtensionHorticulture
      @IllinoisExtensionHorticulture Місяць тому

      Great question. It can be difficult to distinguish between the multitude of named plants related to ginger when lumping in turmeric, and galangal. I am pretty much at the mercy of the companies selling the rhizomes pieces. Hopefully, the following is fairly accurate: I have grown greater galangal (Alpinia galanga) for a few years now. It has a red rhizome sold as "Red Thai galangal." Mine has purple coloration along the mid-vein of the leaf. The plants are much larger, resembling more of a turmeric or canna-sized leaf/shape. Recently I bought "black ginger" but upon receiving it, it turned out to be greater galangal, but a darker (blue to light purple) colored rhizome. Lesser galangal is Alpinia officinarum. Similar to greater galangal, but more diminutive. Leaves are shorter and more akin to typical ginger plant. Light galangal is Alpinia speciosa.

    I live in Dallas suburbs. I tried planting turmeric bulbs indoors in December, January in pots indoors. But they sprouted only when warmed up a lot in may after moving the pots outdoors. If I bring them in November and leave them in pots for two or three more months I am able to get better yield. I grow just 4 to 6 plants in backyard.

    Great information. However, the speaker came off as nervous by saying the wrong words, longer pauses, and staggering words. I'm sure she was nervous. In the future, perhaps she could rehearse saying the information out loud before presenting. That might boost confidence and help the presentation move smoother preventing listener confusion. We had to rewind a few times. Again, great information.
