    Several years ago my dad went to Heaven. He left me many of his tools, and his canner. Two years ago I started canning and now can 150 quarts of veggies and meat. This year (2018) I want to can 200 quarts using my new canning station I am going to install on my covered outside deck. Can a lot of great food and watch a Missouri sun set. Thanks dad!!!! And thanks for another great video.

    I'm amazed at how much your okra grew in a month! I've tried several times to grow okra with poor results, but I blame my zone 3 sometimes 4 area. However, I believe if I grew it under a hoop house I could get a crop. I grew artichokes this year by starting the seed indoors and setting the plants out in one of my hoop houses. They did great! Thanks for another great video.

    • @OldAlabamaGardener
      @OldAlabamaGardener  7 років тому +2

      Hello Kayt, I do a lot of starting seeds inside early in the spring/late winter, that way I get a jump on my garden planting. You can probably grow okra that way. _*I will be a guest on Two family Homestead (Live show) on 18 Sep, at 9pm EST, love to see you there*_. ua-cam.com/channels/1JhWUvQlBEK5N5Kj5yn4EQ.html

      Hi Vicki. OAG thought frying from canned was the best way. I would have to agree! I'm sorry to inform you OAG passed away, but he would want you to continue gardening and canning. Kind regards, OAG's daughter.

Since I’ve only just discovered his channel I’ll probably do a binge watch of the channel sometime soon. One of my old mentors used to say, “they might not be with us anymore, but they are not gone as long as we’re here to remember them.” Much love to you, Daughter. 💕

    OAG love your videos keep up the great work. Up here in Oklahome at our house okra is something always looked forward to, as of last night I've been blessed with a harvest of okra (445 lbs) & counting, we've cooked it everyway that there is & come up with a few new ways & pickled a lot. Have turned it on to people that had never tried it & a few who have had bad experiences with it (to slimy for them lol) everyone so far loves it. Then I start telling them the health benefits that okra has, after that they are sold to adding it to there summer diet. Now my question is how do you can it because we've (me & Beautiful Bride of 27 yrs the 22nd of this month) have never canned it so tips n tricks from u our end would be greatly appreciated & respected. Happy Gardening from us to ya'll

    Hi OldAlabamaGardner, thanks for the video. i plan to try to catch you on the two family Homestead show. Just so you will know, the link you posted in the comments below caught your "Thanks" in the hyperlink. When you click the link you get that the user doesn't exist. Took me two or three click to figure out to delete the 'thanks' from the link. Thanks again for your videos. You really put a lot more effort and time into your okra than I do. I guess that's why you get such good yields.
