    Thankful you had a harvest at all in this drought. We got 3/10 of an inch of rain last night here in Texas. That’s the first rain we’ve had in weeks and weeks. So very thankful. We have been 100+ degrees everyday for weeks.
    We will dig our sweet potatoes in the next few days. Praying we get some for the winter.
    Blessings to you and Wanda. ❤

    Looks like some happy cows 😀
    In spite of the heat and dry ground your definitely
    getting some sweet potatoes 😀
    It's definitely hot for the evening. It's like a fan blowing the hot air or like you
    said a hair dryer.
    Bless you both for all you do and share 💓

    We put sweet potato slips in ground and in our raised bed. To see which would do better here for us. The raised bed had more but not even a 5 gallon bucket. The in ground maybe two handfuls. I'm not sure what happened with the raised bed cause it got water daily once it got real hot. I guess we will try again next year. Husband said we will not use any more of Bonnie plants. We had the worst luck this year ever. Only one zucchini off 6 plants! Thanks for sharing with us Danny and Wanda!

Our high is going to be 93 today we do get a wind, and the fields are all wet around here in Idaho. So it makes living conditions in the heat livable.

It’s been so hot I haven’t been out weeding like normal this year and I work away from home all day so can’t get them in the mornings. We’ve had 2 30-45 minute thunderstorms in the past 2 days. Came out of nowhere, not even in our weather app until it was almost over. Very thankful for that rain. 2 days predicted this week so we will see. Those sweet potatoes look great considering y’all had no rain. I’m sure we will all take and be thankful for what we harvest this year!

    Saturday morning (26th) had a really strong thunderstorm & brought in cool front. This last week of August is nice 80*-86* in day & 55*-65* at night (had to use light blanket) & no rain. Will get hot in 90*s again in September.

By the time the rain from the thunderstorm got down to us it was like a fine mist to start cause the air was so dry. But when the rain reached us the trees started to explode.

  • @DeepSouthBamaGRITS
    @DeepSouthBamaGRITS Рік тому

    Y'all are so blessed to harvest what you did with the weather y'all (and me/others in the deep south) have had this year! My harvest was so pitiful with MAYBE 15-20lbs total (almost a 5-gallon bucket). At least I will have potatoes to keep back for planting slips NEXT spring and a few to eat or can.
    Y'all need to save a few of the leaves/vines to feed your rabbits. THEY LOVE sweet potato vines/leaves. I had one of my Tamuks escape and I trapped it in a cage using JUST SWEET POTATO VINES/LEAVES on my 1st try! I don't have cows so they were in HEAVEN for a few days eating their fill of them. I also picked a few leaves to use in a stir fry and they were DELICIOUS. They have lots of vitamins/nutrients that could be beneficial for hard times.
    Also my scuppernongs ripened very early this year. A lot fell off the vines before ripening, even with watering. Almost every day, the leaves would wilt from the HEAT.
    I had major issues with my figs with the Freeze/frost in March this year. I lost several younger trees and my established trees had to be pruned severely to save them. They are just now producing figs and the FIG season is OVER! I don't understand all that is going on with my garden & fruit trees this year. Everything is off!! My okra is just now producing OKRA!! Most all okra is done for the year but mine are FINALLY making pods. This is my 2nd year of gardening with little to no harvest and I've been gardening for 30+ years. Most all my garden is planted in the cattle mineral tubs and are now in partial shade. Those are the only plants that produced SOMETHING and survived. The rest burned to a crisp from the heat/UV-Radiation Rays, not from underwatering or lack of nutrients. The only thing I had that has done well is my HOT peppers (Carolina Reaper & Jalapena's). I make a hot sauce/relish with those to give to people. They have produced all season and are still producing well. All of this has me scratching my head to figure out WHAT TO DO to have a producing garden. 2nd greenhouse/high tunnel combo will be built this fall to have a more protected growing environment and HOPE that may help me get SOMETHING to eat/preserve/
    Can't wait to see more vid's of the harvests of your other sweet potatoes. Praying they will be as good or better than these that your harvested. I know y'all use a LOT of sweet potatoes every year so prayers you will reap a bountiful harvest with the others.
    Love from Bonnie in AL and PRAYERS FOR SOME MUCH NEEDED RAIN & RELIEF FROM THIS UNRELENTING HEAT!!!

As always a very good video, I like to watch you harvest things with the Farmall Cub tractor.

The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it, The excellence of Carmel and Sharon. They shall see the glory of the Lord, The excellency of our God. 3 Strengthen the weak hands, And make firm the feeble knees. 4 Say to those who are fearful-hearted, “Be strong, do not fear! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, With the recompense of God; He will come and save you.” 5 Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, And the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. 6 Then the lame shall leap like a deer, And the tongue of the dumb sing. For waters shall burst forth in the wilderness, And streams in the desert. 7 The parched ground shall become a pool, And the thirsty land springs of water; In the habitation of jackals, where each lay, There shall be grass with reeds and rushes. 8 A highway shall be there, and a road, And it shall be called the Highway of Holiness. The unclean shall not pass over it, But it shall be for others. Whoever walks the road, although a fool, Shall not go astray. 9 No lion shall be there, Nor shall any ravenous beast go up on it; It shall not be found there. But the redeemed shall walk there, 10 And the ransomed of the Lord shall return, And come to Zion with singing, With everlasting joy on their heads. They shall obtain joy and gladness, And sorrow and sighing shall flee away. (‭‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭35‬‬:‭1‬-‭10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬)

    Reminds of my granddaddy’s place. This was in the 1950’s He had an ALLIS CHALMERS tractor which was much bigger. To help with traction he put about 4-5 gallons of water (mixed with calcium to prevent freezing in winter) into the rear inner tubes. This helped with traction and helped the “tip-over” prone narrow front dual tire😊 It had a small, wide wheel that came out of the side, which ran various belt-driven accessories useful on his 100 acre farm.😊
