You had zero failures, the education that experience has given you was a success. Now if an emergency happens you find out what does and does not do well when neglected.
I love the way you think! I totally agree. I learned so much this time. That part is invaluable 💚
Your dead plants look like my vegetable garden and I was home! Sweet potatoes were a bust for the first time in three years :(. The weather and bugs were a big problem. Bananas took a beating with the storms, but will be ok next year. It’s less expensive and supportive of our local farms to just buy our produce….
Oh no 😢 It’s been a rough year for sure.
Don't think heron ate the seeds, they mainly eat lizards, snakes, bugs. Seeds are very sensitive, anything can hurt them. Our big main problem is the bugs, they devastate my plants: Im in South Florida 😞.. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the info. I didn’t know that. Makes sense now why he is hanging out. It’s like Jurassic Park in my backyard with all the lizards
We haven’t had much rain this last month.
Yeah, the last week I’ve been home has been dry as a bone
In coastal Bradenton we have not had much rain all year.
Thank goodness you are home. I have missed you.
🤗 I missed you too!
You did great. You enjoyed quality time with your family. I went away for 3mths and just had someone water my garden my garden did great wonderful.
That is awesome! Creating memories with family is the best.
Amaranth is so resilient and prolific. Same with celosia! Have armies of volunteers 😂 LOL!!
They never go away! Like ever. It’s crazy.
I have Green onions all year round. I never really take it seriously with Green onions. I just threw in a long rectangle pot and in the ground it ALWAYS thrive every single one of them. The longer i let grow the thicker and super tall it gets. I just throw fish soluble fertilizer once a month it loves it! Haven't bought store Green onions for 2 years now. Just keep it watered.
I have some two different kinds now. One from store bought and those multiplier green onions. They can live through anything, lol.
So glad to see you back!
Thanks! It’s good to be back home
Welcome home.
Thanks so much. It’s great to be home
Welcome home!!
Thank you!!
Welcome back!
Thanks so much. There is definitely no place like home
Welcome back! I filled one of my green stalks with 30 ever bearing strawberry plants and on day 4 of first sourdough starter named Lucy which I’ve never done before! Lol
Oh wow! That’s so exciting. Good luck with Lucy. It may take a little time but she will be well worth it.
So good to have you back. I really missed your videos. I have been binge watching your videos since I didnt know you had returned. Do you have a link where you bought the trombocino squash?
Awww thanks! It’s good to be back. Southern exposure and bakers creek have them. I think mine are from bakers creek
Welcome back fellow gardener and RVer. Even though I do it differently (container or hydroponics), faced some of the same issues even being here to tend things. It was a very hot dry fall as you know and that affected growth. My green beans and cukes overall were a disaster. Peppers and tomatoes struggled, but produced, just not a bumper crop. Brassicas are actually doing well even with the heat. Go figure that one. But after 50 years of growing things in our part of the state, one has to just sit back and enjoy the successes as well as the failures
I completely agree. Enjoy the journey even if it goes differently than you expected. My brassicas are all thriving too. What a weird season.
Welcome home, Patrina. Glad you all had a great trip . It must feel terrific to be home and back to gardening in this beautiful weather. Overall, in my humble and newbie experience, your garden seems to have done well. I’m confident you will bring it all back under control. Thanks for the irrigation tips. We are leaving again for several weeks and I feel like I have everything covered water wise except the Greenstalk. Still thinking that through since I only have strawberries in it but they are producing like crazy already. Looking forward to seeing your progress. Btw, your hair looks nice today. Just saying, not being weird. Happy Veterans Day 🇺🇸
Awww you are so sweet. Thank you. I hope u have a wonderful trip.
Hey homegrown,glad you made it back home safe!😊.Im so behind in planting winter crops this year,so even though you where on vacation you have done a beautiful job!So glad my teacher is ready to give us our lessons🙏
Lol, it’s not too late. You got this 👊
Here in Sylacauga Alabama, we have had our first freeze of the year, 13 hours down tio 26F. A few basil survived, but are severely damaged. My peppers and tomatoes were a total loss. However, my turnips, rutabaga, kohlrabi, Pak Choy, Komatsuna, and Yellow Heart winter choy are thriving, I have winter tomatoes growing inside a polytunnel greenhouse that is heated as necessary. Seed sowing starts in January, and this year, I am growing 250 additional seedlings for a plant sale, beefsteak tomatoes, Supersweet 100 cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, Cubanelle peppers, Jalapeno peppers, cucumbers, and basil. It is my first plant sale, so I am starting small. If all goes well, I'll expand the following year.
Very cool! That must be so exciting. Good luck with your plant sale 💚
Tomatillos and ground cherries are like basil. Plant them once and you will grow them everywhere in your garden for the rest of eternity 😂
Truth!
Welcome home! You look well rested and refreshed 😊
I love your experiment! We grow our main garden up at our property and only tend to it on weekends. Last year was year 1. Many lessons learned. Your extra input gave me tons of information as well as encouragement ☺. It's super great to hear from Florida gardeners especially with the native plants and flowers.
Great 30 min visit, now go tend to your weeds 😂😂😂 Happy 🌱 Gardening!
🤣🤣🤣 There are soooo many weeds!
Welcome home! My summer garden didn't look any better than yours and I tended it every day.
Lol, thanks. Hopefully your fall garden is growing well 💚
Thankfully, it is doing great. And I'm really enjoying the weather. :) @@HomegrownFloridaZ9a
I think those tomato pots needed to be completely filled with soil, that would have probably led to better results.
Yeah they sunk a lot. It was surprising. I just topped them off this week so they are starting to look better now
Mycorrhizae will make plants super hardy. I have done the side by side comparisons. It exists naturally in no till gardens and a great additive to tilled gardens and raised beds.
It definitely seems like it made a difference with my monster tomato plant. I added it to another bed recently to continue testing it out.
Welcome back. Question how is your lawn so short if you were not there for 2 months?
We have a lawn company come out and mow while we are gone on our trips. Otherwise I think the county might get upset, lol. We have let the backyard grow out before when our trips were shorter but it’s really hard to mow it when we get back.
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9a Oh I hear you. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Where did you get the tromboncino seeds from? I have not had luck with summer squash either.
I got them from Baker Creek or Southern Exposure has them too.
Looks like Chinese multicolor amarth
Hmmm, that’s totally possible. I’ve grown that variety too
What zone are you in
I’m in zone 9a, Central Florida
Welcome back!
Thanks!
