Can I just say Finally. Lol , I'm so ready for a homegrown tomato. When i see May on the calendar its like Christmas to me. I get so excited.
I think the favorite part is direct seed. So nice not to have to harden off .
I agree , definitely get the fall seeds asap and start planning. We have alot of new gardener's coming in so its taking a bit longer to receive seeds.
Great video. Happy gardening everyone. I hope the 2024 growing season is a huge success.
Yep I am so excited! We are about 3 weeks out from planting tomatoes!!
Last year I bought 60% shade cloth and used it over my broccoli and lettuce and it made a huge difference to how long I could grow them into our very hot summer. This year I will buy 40% for my warm season crops to get more production in the heat. I have four of my tomato plants out in Wall O Waters and they are doing great so far.
About fall gardening, it’s a good idea to buy the seeds now because a lot of the stores take the seed displays down before you would need to plant them.
I saw your question and I'll answer ya if ya don't mind. Yeah, you can definitely get fall seeds now, just keep them, cool, dark and dry until it's time to start. Seeds are pretty amazing and most can store for years but the germination rate may be affected a bit . I planted 5 year old jalapeño seed last year.
Yes getting them now is a good idea. Unless you choose to order online, companies like True Leaf Market keep a fresh supply year round.
@@StoneyAcresGardening Good thought! I try to buy local as much as I can, but I have ordered seeds online as well.
@@amyschultz8058 Thanks. I didn’t really have a question, but others might. I think from this point on I will vacuum seal my seeds and store them in the freezer, not the frost-free type.
This Phil my strawberries are starting to grow
Thank you for all you do for us gardeners. Be well.
So nice of you
Thank you Rick I always appreciate your monthly reminders sure comes in handy.
It finally finished raining and is warming up here in NW PA, have to get onions and cabbage in yet.
Im always late to the party.
You are very welcome
Thank you so much!
Thanks
If you use grow bags, and can move your plants into a garage or basement, you can cheat a little bit and plant all these about 2 weeks earlier.
Great idea!
Hi Rick, what do you suggest for hilling up potatoes in a raised bed?
Please clarify: Are you talking about transplants or direct sowing?
I love love love arugula and am sad when the winter season ends and my arugula no longer grows. What is the best hot season substitute for it? I’m in zone 7b.
Hello,
If I plant more than 1 variety of OP cucumbers, will the seeds be true to that variety for next season?
I have the same question for tomatoes.
Please advise.
Thank you.
Cucumbers you most likely will not get true seed, OP varieties will cross and affect next years seeds.
Tomatoes can and will cross, but are much less promiscuous. So you might get true seed as they don't rely on pollinators nearly as much. But if you want to be sure to have true seed then you need to separate the plants by at least 25 feet. There's more to it than that, but that's the short answer.
@@StoneyAcresGardening understood. Thanks.
Any suggestions on when broccoli can go in the garden?
Up to 4 weeks before your last frost date. No probably now!
Hi there, I want to plant some potatoes... both sweet and regular. What's the best way to start? I typically buy them, put them in water until they root and plant. Is there a better way? Thank you so much.
Regular potatoes you don't need to start in water, just stick them in the ground. Sweet potatoes are grown from "slips". You can sprout those slips yourself if you like, but it is really late in the year for that. Instead you can order slips online and then plant them once them come. Be sure to schedule so that they arrive after your last frost date.
