Just got my 2024 journal. I’m going to sit in my garden Sunday and create a plan for next season. So excited
I plant onion seeds, but I also buy starts from Dixondale which do much better than my seeds. I learned from early failures that Onions are heavy feeders, so I give extra nitrogen every two weeks in the beginning.
So true about micro climates regardless of hardiness zone. Just this week I learned that USDA has remapped my 9b to 10a still going to do what I’ve been doing since I journal the year my main concern is planning new natives for pollinators 🤞🏼 time will tell.
I totally agree. I moved closer to the coast in SFL and I can tell you my microclimate here behave more like a zone 11 even when USDA maps said 10b, I even explained it to a plant nursery worker who didn’t believe me lol with the new USDA map it confirmed this with zoning is as 11a
My microclimate is 9b in the backyard, and 10a in the front yard. 😂
I am excited to see your garden grow. Not only because I like seeing gardens grow, but to compare how things go because I happened to get my garden planted out earlier. I always wondered what would happen if I planted mine out later... Also, I loved that you still planted out your pepper seedlings, even though they were not ideal. That is the miracle of gardening , seeing plants make a come back, and in some cases, end up being the best!
I slowed down this fall, but you have motivated me to get my butt moving
If you can’t get all the broccli seeds out where it spilled you can grow them as microgreens
Interesting theory - we keep our lights off and have very minimal pest damage. We are harvesting green onions, radishes, chard, kale and lettuce already! Have the former sweet potato bed planted, and everything is up after such good rain.
I heavily plant my beets and turnips in my GreenStalks. When they get nickel to quarter size I will thin. Tops are wonderful in salads and beets are great size for pickling whole, turnips I use like new potatoes. I’m in Ocala and growing French Breakfast radishes this year. The white part is extremely mild giving flavor of radish with no heat red area milder than round radishes. Plus my rabbits love the greens 😁 Try the Emerald broccoli the flavor is excellent fresh or cooked and freezes great.
Love all the information that you give us, thank you!
We just moved our garden to the front yard and have lights on over night and we have had a lot more pests than before in Tampa! I wonder if your theory may be correct!
That’s interesting to hear that you are seeing something similar!
Thank you for the garden planner, I just received it a couple of days ago and it is awesome. I have to say it is better than I expected and I really like it.
Thank you for the awesome video (as usual) I think you're right about the lights at night. Up by Gainesville we have some Very Large Huntsman Spiders (shudder) I started turning off all the lights at night and noticed there are far fewer spiders on my porch now. I attribute it to the lack of prey, thankfully they seem to be back in the woods where they belong
This was so unbelievably helpful and encouraging
It’s been my experience that when you put a beet seed in the ground more than one sprouts up and I always just leave them all on and they they grow fine they take a little bit of time but they grow fine.
Hi from 33710. I just subscribed. Love your videos.
Yaaaaay! Welcome and Thank you!
My cabbage and greens are loving it! My lettuce and spinach have done nothing
My garden is in an area that has zero lights. The moth pressure isnt to bad although I still see them.
Vine borers got to my beautiful squash! Harvested a few, but replanting. Carrots and beets are slow to grow, but radishes and broccoli, beans, peas are doing well.
In Orlando we are now 10A zone😮😮😮😮😮😮😮 from 9b
Have you tried roasting radishes? I found i like it better than the. Raw. The heat leaves and it's more like roasted root veggies. Just tasty!
I’ve planted carrots twice and neither time did they come up because I got to 89° both times so I am waiting until December January to plant my carrots again.
Hello,have you ever had issues with squirrels digging and vandalizing some of the crops? any tips/tricks ? thank you! Just got my planner also Greatly done thank you so much!
This is great information and how do I get a copy of your handy dandy organizer? 😮😊
Yay! I'm glad you liked. You can snag a copy at www.wildfloridian.net/planner
Did I hear you say beet hummus?? Oooh. Ewww. Hmmm. 😅 I trenches my turnips and radishes. It's been 3 or 4 years since I did beets.
Do you have a link to where you get your seeds? I’m sorry if you already posted it somewhere.
Thank you!!!
Try radishes again. Roast them.
Do your peppers cross pollinate so close together?
I am in zone 9a in south Georgia (45 minutes north of Tallahassee). Would your garden planner still work for me to use? Or would I need to make significant modifications?
Since you are so close to north Florida, yes it would work for you. There is information that is detailed as specific to north Florida. If you were further into Georgia, I would say no. Hope that helps!
@@WildFloridian TYSM for the quick response! 💓
It’s just kale and mustard greens this winter. Too many construction projects. Kale will take care of nutrition issues and mustard greens are a necessity planting in okra beds because it beats back root knot nematodes that I heard will lag Okra plantings. Mustard greens as a cover crop or I can eat it. Either or, as long as I grow them it will do it’s job. I started mine in cups, separated them into individual tiny pots then plant them chaotically in the food forest amongst native plants.
When did you do this it rained here all week.😂
Same here! 😂 This was two weeks ago
beats ok to grow in sw florida?
Yes
yes but its been scarily dry (in some spots) so you'd have to had started them a while ago. nows another good time tho.
@@Ash-fd8ww Thank you!
