My sweet potatoes are doing insanely well this summer. I had to pull one that weighs 7 lbs. Kinda scary it got that big. The only place I could find different organic varieties was from Whole Foods. I got Hannah (white variety) Japanese (red outside white inside) and purple stokes (all purple). I made the slips myself. Way cheaper than ordering specialty varieties online.
Oh wow! that is awesome!!!
I’m in South Florida 10a Palm Beach County and my figs are doing well. Growing in a large pot from Dollar General and I’ve harvested 15 ripe, delicious figs. Okra, peanuts, leaf and grain amaranth, and eggplant are also doing well.
Hi! I'm in Broward County, 10b. When did you sow eggplants and what variety? I tried black beauty and didn't get them to fruit.
Hi there, new subscriber here in northwest Florida. I got interested when you talk about banana planting and what kind they are..I might try looking for the smaller ones since we have freezing weather here in December….Thank you so much for the info…Take care and happy gardening!🙏🙏❤️❤️
Don't forget southern peas. Biggest producers for summer crops and good for soil.
Good suggestion Sonnya 🙌
I also go to jene’s tropical and also lida’s jungle both in St Pete
Thanks for being the public service announcement for gardeners in Florida. The humidity and heat combinations are resulting in more of those dangerous "wet bulb" conditions. Also for people who like to garden late in the day, watch out for mosquitoes; not only are they plentiful, but cases of Malaria have been found around Sarasota.
The preparing and clean-up to have your garden be storm-ready is especially important. My neighborhood been hit by a downspout that was forecast as "chances of thunderstorms" that took down huge oak limbs, including a 30+ year old live oak, lanai screens, fences, etc. We've experienced hurricanes that left less debris. The extra heat is making more dangerous weather conditions, so we may not have any notice to do extended prep. I will watch your storm prep video again to make sure I haven't missed any pointers. Thanks again to your Dad for making the video, and please send him wishes for his continued health.
You’re welcome Monica!!! Stay safe this summer 😄
Peppers! My habaneros are popping like crazy 😁
Nice 🙌
You are always so charming and provide such great information. Thanks for sharing.
Aw Thank you! That makes me feel good!
Your eggplant looks so good! Mine is huge but hasn’t set any fruit 😭
Oh no! Are you getting flowers? The sun is starting to get too intense for even the warm to hot crops… but once the heat and sun let up a little they usually explode
@@WildFloridian yes lots of flowers but no fruit and it’s been in the ground liking enough to have mature fruit by now. I googled and it said excessive heat and humidity can cause flowers to drop and prevent pollination 🙄🤦♀️
I live in the big bend (zone 8b) and use Ty Ty nursery in GA. They sell many of the fruit tree varieties created or endorsed by UF for my zone. I have bonus sweet potatoes growing in my compost bin from last season’s clippings. I have never heard of Puerto Rican black beans but I am going to check them out. Thanks for your videos. I always learn something new.
Awesome! That’s a great referral!
I’ve been looking forward to this video❤ Florida Hill Nursery in Orlando is a great source as well - for anyone looking!
Where in Orlando is it located please?
Yay Jess! Thanks for sharing the recommendation 🙌
@@Fl-Mamabear in Apopka.
They also have delivery.
@@GatorJessthanks
Blackeyed pea/cowpeas/red ripper can be grown now, I like them green, we call them field peas.
I am growing southern peas for the first time, but can't figure out when to pick them. Am I correct that if I keep them picked I will get a better harvest?
Yes. Pick often. They are great producers for us here in the south. I'm on my second round of some peas, purple hulls are fast growing, and all peas are good for soil.
Sorry, most southern peas are ready once pods have filled out. When you can see and feel the peas inside. Plus, they are easy to shell. Purple hulls turn purple, and red ripper will turn a yellowish color.
Thank you very very much!
Thank you Sandra for the great recommendations 🙌
Sarasota had 4 reported cases of malaria so long sleeves, hat and avoid dusk time in the garden.
I am in Central Florida zone 9a and i like purchasing my citrus from Backyard Citrus in Florida. The trees always look so perfect when we get them. I have also tried Seminole Pumpkins thanks to you and the Everglades Tomatoes. Both are doing well. I also just purchased a Mulberry Tree last month and i swear it has grown 3 feet already.
Thanks for all of the great info.

I made a native flower garden in my front yard, it's doing great. I saw that video you did with Petrina, great one, & I am starting to incorporate some natives in the back with my veggies. You two ladies have turned me into a real Florida Gardener, thank you.
My sweet potatoes are growing like crazy. First time for me so I didn't know what to expect. Wow, I'm loving it. I saved that hurricane video you did with your dad, I guess it's time to watch it again. I was jotting down the names of some of the plants you listed today. Going to try to get a few to put with my veggies. Thanks again for all you do for us.
I found you today with your potato video. I'm even more excited knowing you're actually in my area, because I've had people give me their florida gardening advice and it not worked because usually their area just isn't quite the same climate.
Love Murray's Flowers & Fun Finds in Ocala
Thank you 🙌
I’m in Sarasota and I love taking a trip to echo farms! Great prices and it’s dedicated to feeding the world.
Thank you great video love that you added tips for us northern gardens on how to add plants during the hot weather along with survival in the garden. Great job!
You’re welcome! 😉 I’m always trying to help my Florida Neighbors 🦩
I live in Palm Bay, FL. Directly across the state from st Pete. I watch your videos all the time! A hug fan, but I’ve been trying to grow Seminole pumpkins since April and they all keep dying. The plants won’t get larger than 6” before they die. I’ve fed them organic fish emulsion and mulch. That’s it. But it looks like some bug keeps eating them, and the heat takes them out. Any tips? I planted the seeds in organic gardening soil, in raised beds. The seeds doing the best are ones I planted IN my compost pile surprisingly, out of a lot of sun. Half a day of shade really.
I know they are supposed to like full sun but right now they definitely like some shade. I would try again this fall. They can take some decent amount of nibbling. My original plants were planted in August/ September a few years ago.
I'm in zone 10b North Lauderdale Broward County, I have sweer potatoes doing well, and I've actually got soy beans growing, so far so good, got a good batch of long been and catalope growing. I have so much basil, it's crazy!. And I have a papaya tree doing well.
Hi there, Im also in Broward. Do you have a suggestion for a good place to by tropical fruit trees and vegetables.
@@mixingreen Not really, I have seen them at Lowes Garden Center, I know craigslist might have so advertising under farm and garden
I'm in Seminole, FL (Pinellas County). Have you grown coneflower/echinacea from seed? I have not been able to do this successfully. Thanks for the information!
Love watching ya. Thanks for all the great info
Thank you Desiree! 🥰
In the SWFL area, I prefer ECHO and FruitScapes for fruiting trees and edible crops.
Thanks Katie!!!
Morning
Good Morning Jon!
I have a two-year old native flower garden next to our large designated vegetable garden. I have been going for a tidy, yet organic look. What are your thoughts on deadheading? I want to provide for wildlife and allow for some reseeding, however, I want it to look intentional, promote re-bloom, and keep some of my more prolific reseeding natives in check. Any advice? Also, your channel is a delight! Gainesville, FL
Broward county people. Do you have a suggestion for a good place to by tropical fruit trees and vegetables? Thank you for the info.. Nice video
Hello Lady J! I want to grew yucca. Can you do a segment on it?
Where can I find Puerto Rican black beans? I have searched and cannot find them! Also, I'm in zone 9a, can I plant hibiscus seeds directly outdoors?
Love watching you, I would like to know what the name of the lemon/Lime Bush. And will it grown in zone 8b and 9a ? I would love to grow one here.
I believe you are talking about the citrus shown in the video. That is a calamondin or calamonsi. They are between a lemon and lime in flavor. Super compact and can be grown in large pots. And yes it would grow there but will need protection in the winter.
Love your videos. I was wondering if you ever tried coco plums? I planning on putting a hedge of them , for privacy on a fence line and hopefully for the edible fruit for people and wildlife
Hi! I’m in SE Florida and have several horizontal cocoplums. It grows pretty aggressively and will make a nice hedge. I don’t find the fruit to be tasty but not gross either 🤷🏼♀️. They don’t seem to be eaten by wildlife much either here. Definitely a cool plant though.
@@kristicole7949 I understand the fruit is better to use as a jam or preserves
I haven’t! I keeping eyeing some that are lining a parking lot and are loaded with fruit. I’ve heard mixed things about coco plum fresh.
My only easy grow has be purple hull peas. Potatoes fizzled, sweet potatoes fizzles, zucchini made only male flowers. Frustrated. Homosassa
Hey fellow Floridians who have dealt with root knot nematodes, what solutions worked for you? I already added compost to my raised beds before planting seeds so that didn’t work. I just lost several plants (cucumbers, okra, cantaloupes, bush beans 😭). Are beneficial nematodes worth it? Looking for ideas.
Having the same problem.
You might consider just pulling your plants right now and solarizing your soul until early Sept. Get all roots out, add good org soul, compost. Dampen, cover well and let the heat kill off as much as possible. 8-10 weeks. Try not to hoe or bug the soul when done...just put in your seeds, plants.
Hope this helps
@@gailc3042 Thank you
I agree galic!
I have a small area. How do I maximize a space so I can grow veggies from start to finish for each season. Will my summer crops be done in time to start my fall crops?
Add a trellis and grow climbing varieties of vegetables. Also, plant more densely than the recommendation on the seed packets. This will necessitate feeding and watering more.
Vertical is the way to maximize and containers. Greenstalk or grow bags. I would hold off on summer crops. That is what I am doing to ensure my beds are freed up for fall and winter planting.
Where do you get your Puerto Rican black beans to plant? I can’t find any. Do you direct sow them?
Ditto! I have been looking online and only found a couple of sources and they were out of stock. If I can get an initial package, I can then save my own. But I too need to know where to get them.
I got mine from Elise at Urban Harvest. I directly sow.
Can’t find them either. Are they the same as turtle beans
Hi! Do you have a business email we could reach out to you on?
OMG! You are so long winded!!
