I feel like you were reading my mind about seedtime. I was an early subscriber but just don’t have time on the weekends to pull out the laptop to deal with it as i have too much to get done in the garden and yard work. (Then all the other fun stuff like housework, cleaning and more 😫) I wish I could have more time in my day/life! Thanks for sharing what you do with what you grow, appreciate it very much! 😃
Love the content! I'm finally starting to understand the Florida growing season 😅 I totally didn't time my broccoli & cauliflower plants, I didn't realize the harvest time was so long and it's already getting hot in south Florida...
If you pressure can, it does require a special pot but not water bath canning which this recipe is. Definitely give it a shot and let me know how it goes 😊
OMG, Petrina, that's not a brussel sprout @5:45, that's a small cabbage! Wow! Thanks for the recipe. Even if you are not canning, it looks like a good base for all sorts of yummy things, like salad dressing, grilling sauce....with just a little oil of some kind. Or save the pickle juice, cause that is going to be seriously good eats! Because of you, my brassica growing plan is stretching into 2025: broccoli (Arcadia, I think you said) for fall 2023, kohlrabi 2024, Jade Cross brussels 2025. You covered all the bases: even for container growers like me (Seven plus gallon pots: check). Thanks also for the invite to SeedTime. I am going to love playing with that app, once I get over all this hot weather seed and plant starting. When the weather cools a little next week, I won't feel so behind, but this heat and lack of rain is stressing me and all my plants way out. Gotta run and plant something else!
Haha! It was a giant, wasn’t it? I already tried the canned sprouts and that brine is amazing. Just like you said, salad dressing, marinade. I simmered it until it was balsamic glaze. Oh my it was good. Let me know what you think of seedtime.
Hi, when you said as soon as the seeds emerge put them in full sun? Does this apply to all seeds in every season? I just started a lot of fall crops in my greenhouse and the seeds just emerged and are already kind of leggy. What would you do? Ty so much!!
Every season besides the dead of summer I would move them to full sun. During summer I usually give them full morning sun but shade in the afternoon since it’s more intense. If I were you I would get them in the sun asap to correct the leggyness
Planting early in the season definitely helps because the pest pressure is down. I also love to grow a lot of dill around my brassica. It keeps a lot of different bugs away. And Spinosad or BT does wonders if none of that works. Just be careful with it since it can harm pollinators
Something about that maple syrup and balsamic combination in your brine recipe is really good! I think I am with Janice on SeedTime. It could be a function of my small scale container gardening (more probably due to my Boomer attitudes), but I much prefer using printed pages of your planner for my gardening. The timing of the Florida seasons for most vegetables need manual entering, the heat tolerant veggies need manual entering from scratch, and I feel like I was pushed too much sales info on buying the upgrade, seeds, and products in my mailbox. So for a not-ready-for-prime-time product, not worth my time, nor provided useful info, nor held any entertainment value for me.... sorry, just an opinion.
I understand your point. There is a lot more manual updates we have to make for our FL climate. Also, I would prefer it in app form. Definitely has some more work to do on their side but not bad for them just starting out. And I agree completely on the maple syrup/balsamic combination. Too amazing!

I know what you mean! I’m always behind on everything, lol.
I can't wait to try growing some Brussels and I'm going to try that canning recipe...looks yummy 😋
It's so good! My new favorite way to preserve brussels

I thought you needed a special pot to can. I have been wanting to try this. The recipe looks really good 👍
Thanks! It takes awhile to get the hang of it but you got this!

Should’ve watched this 9 months ago. Missed it this year.
If you are in Florida, you still have a little bit more time to get them in the garden.
Thank you from Bonita Springs for this!!
My pleasure!
Wow they're huge 😍
Thanks for sharing I got Brussels sprout seeds thanks for the great information zone 9a.
My pleasure. Let me know how it goes for you
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9a I will.
Thanks for sharing. I will try out your recipe. This is my first year with sprouts.
That’s so exciting! I hope you enjoy the recipe

The sprout roots makes chips
Thats why the stringray molar was the cover for the deep sea creature that came to eat when the pregnant witch came up
My seeds germinated in 3 days. Curacao caribbean
What measures do you take to control pests like cabbage loopers?

How did these taste?
Really good. Definitely very pickled but good
