Faith is like a seed; plant it in your heart. God gives the harvest at the appointed time. (Mark 4:26-27,28-29)
That's great 😊
Thanks! 😊
I like putting suckers in water to start roots and plant later. We are on well so that helps. Chlorinated water would need to aerate before putting suckers in.
That's definitely a good option.
Thank you for taking your time to answer questions. My garden is just growing, we are just getting into the mud 60s. My squash are recovering from the racoons. I am so glad I found your channel, you have already taught me so much
Thank you for this comment! Its really encouraging 💚
Oh I would love to see the recipe for mac & cheese
I'll definitely be adding it in to a video soon! 💚
Thank you. I love watching your videos
Great video....put down, mix in pelletized gypsum in fall in tomato beds. Game changer!!
Not sure if you’ve read her bio or not but she’s a horticulturist. 👍🏼
@@beckymartinez9926 she has blossom end rot. Pelletized gypsum will prevent
I appreciate the tip.
I seriously love your channel I have watched your videos over and over just because I enjoy your videos
Thank you! That's such a wonderful thing to hear!! 💚💚
I really enjoyed this kind of format where you answered our questions.
I did too! I hope do more of them in the future! 💚
Epic response video, Natasha! Thanks for the answers.
To update, I left that cucumber plant alone and it is now shooting up the trellis at a much faster rate than the rest.
It's still on the cool side here, between 50-70 degrees, and everything but my onions are surprising me with their growth. ❤
I'm so glad to hear about your cucumbers doing well! And onions definitely love that temperature zone your in right now, anything more than that and mine are ready to bloom!
Excellent video Natasha very informative and the garden has filled out so well . I have a gardening picture you may find interesting . God bless and happy gardening everyone.
That sounds great! I look forward to it! 💚
I’m from the Uk and very envious of your climate
I'm not super familiar with the UK’s climate. I've always imagined it like Washington State though, shorter growing season and more rain? Is that accurate?
Absolutely love your garden and your videos. The squash mac and cheese had me intrigued. Can you do a video on making it?
Absolutely! I plan to add it into the video rotation soon! 💚
I’m keeping some of my healthiest suckers in a vase of water. Hoping to have good roots to plant for fall after the others are crispy.
Crispy is a great description for how they get! 😂💚
I love your videos and this Q&A gave me so much info
Thank you, I hope it helps!
Hello dear , nice show
thank you
Can we come over and hang out with you?! My kids miss their cousins! 😊❤
You know your always welcome!! ❤️🫶
Looks like some of the beds may need reinforcing due to all that soil, either that or your camera angle was playing tricks, happy gardening. I wrote this before you addressed it lol.
This comment made me chuckle 😂💚 💚
Thanks for the video, Natasha. I couldn't tell if you were growing any cherry tomato varieties but if so, what do you do when they get taller than the cattle panel trellis? I use a different trellising method, but I find that cherry tomatoes grow so quickly that by the time the lowest cluster of fruits are starting to turn, the plant is like 7+ feet tall already. If I do a lower and lean method, that puts the unripe clusters on the ground. Maybe they would do better not being on a trellis and just sprawling across the ground.
We are growing a few cherry tomato varieties (brads crazy cherry, blue creams, etc.) and most of the I just let them grow and hope they remain strong enough to not break! Our cattle panels are about a foot off the ground so the tomatoes have about 5 feet of vertical growing support and then it's just hoping and praying! 😂
Have you ever planted elephant garlic? Advice for replanting small singular bulbs, and corms?
In truth, I don't remember what variety of garlic we have. It started by replanting grocery storm garlic and then we have replicated it year after year from the same start. When it comes to replanting, I have taken the small bulbs and removed individual cloves and just re-planted directly into the beds.
Thank you for the chit-chat! Great information! It's Florida weave even though I'm from Texas. I am surprised to hear you don't use fertilizer but I don't have to us a lot. I would love the berry plant you mentioned. Do you mind sharing seeds? My two pest are vine borers (I never get summer squash because of them) and leaf footed bugs.
Florida weave! Isn't it funny sometimes you just can't remember something no matter how many times you've read it or gone over it? 😂 I don't have any seeds for the schwartzenbereen berry or ground cherries since they just reseed themselves so prolifically each year! I'm sorry! But I did get them from Baker Creek!
