Please video you harvesting your onions. I want to see how big they are. Bre I’m 69 yrs young and I just love your channel. You are the best. Your love for the garden makes me want to go out and start digging and planting. You are the biggest ray of sunshine on UTube. Love you girl. Enjoy.
Plan on it! & Thank you so much, appreciate the support!!
Cilantro tip! I live in a hot, humid place and recently found out about Mexican culantro / saw tooth coriander. It tastes exactly the same BUT is a perennial in frost free zones and grows so well in hot places. Highly recommend because I cannot grow cilantro here (it bolts within a week)
I’m growing this too with success. GA zone 8A
Any way you could a sorta "all about luffa" video? When to plant, space needed, upkeep etc. I would love to grow them, but they're so intimidating!
And I’d love for you to do a video specifically of you making all the teas that you grow in your garden!
Bre, i love the way the garden takes on an almost fantasy land look, like you could walk into the melon tunnel and vanish to another realm of abundance! Beautiful!
Thank you!
It blows my mind every time I see how far along your garden is!! Luffas already a foot long and ripe tomatoes etc! Wow!
I've been recording daily max/min temperature for six years. June 2023 was my coldest. June 2024 was my warmest.
Save some of your eggshells and blend them up with some water and then pour them around your plants that is an excellent long-term source of calcium!
I have some lemon basil too and the are as big as my roma tomatoes!! I made a really delicious pasta & pesto with them!! It was a lemon-parm pasta and the lemon basil was so good with it!!
We had such a wet year uptill now that even my tomatoes in the greenhouse suffered. My tomato year is bad. Love the way your garden looks. It is beautiful!!!
You're incredible and an inspiration!!! 🙏🏻⚘️
Blossom end rot is caused by a calcium deficiency but the deficiency is caused by lack of water 🌊 the plant doesn't have a mechanism to move calcium through the plant when it's not watered enough
Maybe put lettuce in your shade area where you are going to put your autumn plants the garden looks fantastic well done
My lemon basil is the FASTEST basil to flower! I LOVE the scent! But I really wanted my Siam queen basil to hurry up and flower and it’s taking a bit longer 😀
Oh my goodness, your garden looks so good Bri!! Love that yarrow and coneflower view 😍🥰🙌 Very excited to watch some of your preserving videos this garden season!
You have a lovely garden and I enjoy your excitement you get from gardening. The elderberries you have are normally grown as ornamental shrubs and that’s why few berries. If you get some good berry producing varieties you’ll get lots and lots of berries. Plant them 6-8 feet from each other and cut down to a foot tall every February. They grow like weeds and send up new plants too.
Gold in Gold Watermelons are the BEST tasting, and every review i've seen agrees. My bestie likes orange crisp or tendersweet. I can't remember which, but the strange colors seem to have the best flavor when it comes to watermelon. Sugar Baby will also always be in my top 10 list.
If you can take a little more heat, I'd suggest trying sugar rush peach peppers. I'm trying them out for the first time this year and they are producing a massive amount of peppers! They are by far putting all my other varieties to shame. A couple of treatments with water soluble fertilizer should take care of the blossom end rot in those old bags. I'm so jealous of the onion harvest you have coming. Freaky weather took out my first planting of onions... every last one of them. I had to start over and that put me way behind.
You have the most amazing and thriving garden. I really enjoyed the tour. Looking forward to the next videos and more from your garden.
What a great garden! And you have a fantastic screen presence, visual/audio, everything.
I love love that tunnel. reminds me of the book, Secret Garden by Frances Hodges Burnett. The theme is all about healing while caring for the flowers. Have you read it?
I haven't but I have heard of it! Maybe ill put that on my list for winter!
@@itsbreellisdefiantly do
@@itsbreellisI love the idea of having a cold weather reading list! I’m definitely doing that.
I’m in the next state and I can’t believe how fast your Melons are growing my cantaloupe is taking off so slow 😢.. nice job!!
Once they take they grow so fast!!! These trellis look so different in 2 weeks time!
I love the garden tour videos and your vlogs
a total package: beautiful, tall, gorgeous and love gardening. seriously
The same thing happened with my strawberries this year. I threatened to rip them out and replace them with a new variety and all of a sudden the produced like crazy! 😅
Your garden is beautiful!
🌺So Beautiful Bre! The Zinnia’s are fantastic, so pretty/ You are amazing!
Looking forward to videos of you processing all your tomatoes. Especially salsa! Love your channel!
Gales best are really the best!
Hello i realyy happy looks your videos..
❤from indonesia....❤❤
What a beautiful and productive garden you have! Such a labor of love in every turn! I am so inspired by your flowers! I am still learning how to grow more flowers in the garden! We have some beautiful mature flower plants but they were not planted by us :) I hope you will make a video on your processing of the paste tomatoes! Thank you for making all the garden and the cooking with your harvest videos! I truly enjoy watching them! 🥰
Thanks for watching!
I live in Texas, in the Panhandle, zone 7 also and out temperatures are staying in the high 90's low 100's and is wrecking havock with my tomatoes. They won't set blooms when it is that hot. I think this week I am going to start putting up shade cloth over my tomatoes. My heat loving peppers are even getting blistered some days. I have lemon thyme and love using it on chicken. It is so delicious! Beautiful garden, thank you for sharing.
Wow the garden is beautiful. I can’t believe how much the cantaloupe and luffa have grown! I’ve made some notes about seeds you’re happy with. I’ve grown Amish paste with great success but have wondered about trying a determinate variety as well. I like the idea of a mass flush of fruit at once although I just freeze my tomatoes and process when I’m ready without issue. I do prefer to use fresh tomatoes for salsa though.
I’m impressed, the garden is both beautiful and so productive.
You might want to make Alton Brown’s very easy recipe for pickled carrot slices ! My adult son added thin onion slices, thin jalapeno slices and a few tiny hot red peppers to his pickled carrots. No need to can them, but you could do that. These are delicious accompaniment to sandwiches, etc but it’s hard not to just snack on them!
The biggest pepper I ever grew was Big Bertha.
Hi bri, I love your channel and yu made me fall in love with snapdragon, and I really love it when you harvest them, please do a detailed video about your flower or shom more of your flowers,
So here in New Zealand we usually rinse out our milk bottles and pour it on the tomato patches to stop blossom end rot. On weeks I don't have milk I use milk powder and mix a teaspoon into a 2-liter bottle and use that instead. Never had an issue with it since. Love your garden. I'm so inspired for when it's spring here. I wanna plant more flowers. I have a huge garden but there's only me here so I don't need that many veges.
Whoa. Are those determinate Roma's? I've NEVER had determinate tomatoes set that many fruit! You are KILLING IT!! :)
Your tomatoes look great 🍅. And your serrano peppers look good too👍👌
My FAVE watermelons are #1 Yellow doll and #2 August Ambrosia! Sugar baby was good, but those 2 are my absolute faves! Grown in a 160ish frost free days area
Lemon basil pesto sounds like it would be a tasty thing to try! It’s funny you said that about cantaloupes dropping from the vine. I didn’t know that and literally my first cantaloupe fell off just today. Luckily it is a mini variety so it didn’t split when it fell!
Looking great!!! Your Loofas look amazing. Mine look so sad I don’t even have any loofas yet.
You can roast sone egg shells, mix with vinegar and then dillute this in water. It is a JADAM garden recepie for calcium that your plants can take up right away...
Great job on the iris!!!!
Thank you! I’m so excited for them!!
Great job!
I have the same lavender. Cover it in the winter. Does sooo well. I’m 2nd year and they’re HUGE! I work at a farm where we do lavender picking -- we cover it in 6b in SW Ohio.
I too like cosmos. Last year was first year. They seem delicate but the roots are massive.
The farm specializes in strawberries and we sell strawberry plugs already for sale. Organic. Growing Farmers online… (this wasn’t intended to be a plug- I’m just an HR employee 😂)
~Janelle
You can also use the poblanos in salsa. I usually roast them and add them:)
Beautiful garden 🪴
You gave me some tips. I have a lemon tree and I found some eggs on some of the leaves. I do thank you
Happy to help!
🧅🧅🧅Hi, Loved all the info!
I’ve had some problems with blossom end rot also. I had the same problem last year and it’s always on my San Marzano tomatoes. I thought there was too much drainage in the pot. Someone suggested placing a tums at the bottom of the pot. I had two plants in a large barrel and while I was removing them I noticed the soil was very dry under the straw. I already destroyed the plants so I couldn’t put them back. This was brand new soil I had delivered a few months ago. So now I’m thinking there wasn’t enough organic material in there. I mixed in the straw and even added a tums. I’m starting to think it’s a flaw in this type of tomato. I did get some that were healthy but for the most part when I cut them open the blossom end rot was inside but didn’t show on the outside.
My San marzanos are doing fine but my romas keep getting blossom end Rot. They are in the same soil.🤷♀️
Hey Bre, ur garden is looking amazing 🤩 I love the cattle panel trellises so much; very whimsical. I got on here specifically to tell u the temperature blanket project sounds so fun. I don’t knit or crochet but I might give it a try. Any tips or videos u can recommend? Love ur channel ❤
Your garden looks amazing and so productive, would like to know what's in the bottles that are in the raised beds with peppers? Love your channel!
New subbie absolutely love your garden 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I just love sunflowers too. I just dont have a garden 😭
Since your lavender is in a pot, can you pull it into your potting room to winter? I get that is extra work though 😅❤ I love all your flowers!
OMG, you have to try "Moon and Stars" watermelons. Love them!
Thanks for the suggestion!!
I love those melons.
Wish my onions looked at big! Mine are growing, but not huge 😭! I thought you were supposed to break the tops to ensure the onion was growing vs the stalk. Bahahha
I swear, it seems like you were just starting garlic and starting everything!!
I can’t win with cantaloupes. Any tips on fighting off powdery mildew? Your garden is absolutely thriving! 😊
Mine will get attacked eventually. Im able to get good harvests before so! You could always try a fugalcide if your having issues!
Bakers creek Ala baba water melon is fabulous
Never heard of that! I’ll check it out, thanks for the suggestion!
Lemon basil tea is nice or a simple lemon and lemon basil pasta would be good. I literally made Giada’s lemon, basil pasta for dinner tonight.
@@Just-Nikki nice. What herbs u used please?
Lemon basil cordial- make a martini with it! 😉
That sounds amazing!!
Foliar spray those tomatoes 😊
Great video. When you showed the Inca jewel tomato, there is a small terra cotta pot in your soil. Is that by chance for slugs? We have so many where I live because of the moisture. Any suggestions?
That is actually a Oya, they help with watering. Unfortunately I dont have many tips for slugs that's lucky enough one I dont deal with often.
Obtain a duck or two 😂 we struggle too and I remove all hiding spots, grow a tonne of pest traps (nasturtiums) and go out every night to collect and feed them to the chickens. Slug pellets if it's really bad (but I rarely do this). I start seeds in trays and plant them out when they're strong too
Bri, what do you fertilize your tomatoes with, they are so productive.i want to try that variety. thanks for the tour.
Have you heard of making pesto with those beautiful carrot greens?
your garden is beautiful love your videos. does your rosemary in the grow bags overwinter out side for you.
Some years it has some it hasn’t. I plan to overwinter under lights this next round. I did that with my white sage and it worked out great.
Hi Bre, your veggies look amazing! I was just wondering how you plan out your veggie growing? Do you make a plan each year or each season? Or just go with the flow?
Bri, what do you fertilize your tomatoes with, i love that supremo roma.
Sugar baby is the worst watermelon, imo. Try rattlesnake and/or crimson sweet.
my lavender does fantastic here in KC, but mine is in the ground
Maybe that’s always been my issue. I’ve always had it in pots. I planted a bunch in my front! Guess we will figure it out if we get cold this winter lol
@@itsbreellis- Hi Bree- I live in the UK- in the South West of England, so our winters aren't too bad. My lavender bush is huge! I think when I planted it, it was supposed to be a 'miniature ' variety, but it's definitely not. I think it's just a standard 'English Lavender' - fully hardy- currently it's around 4 ft high and almost 4 ft wide, and smothered in flower heads, which the bees love. The flower heads aren't as dark purple or as pretty as some of the less handy 'French Lavender' varieties available, but the flower heads are very aromatic, and great for drying, to use in Lavender bags/pillows. The ground is clay, and in full sun during most of the day.
I'm loving your garden videos! I moved back to my childhood home 2 years ago, and now have a big garden. I'm trying to get the smaller front garden (outside my front door!) planted up first, with bee friendly plants and herbs, but have a veggie plot and a small wildflower 'meadow' planned in my larger plot, across the road from my house. Your garden is an inspiration! 😀
My onions are no where near as big as yours but they are already popping out the ground🫣
Same here in Iowa. The cold snap scared me but the heat came too quick. They turned yellow, so I pulled them. I wish you good luck.
By far my biggest onions I've grown! The sunlight triggers and depending on where your at you still probably have some time! Mine tend to be ready the first week of July
Do you have the Presto digital electric canner? It looks like an excellent product that makes canning so easy…
I know you weren’t asking me but I have one. I wanted something smaller than my giant All American. It is so easy, honestly it’s very much like using an instant pot. You can only can about 6 jars at a time but it’s so easy and hands off, plus it doesn’t put off heat or use a stove burner so I will do small batches of stuff every few days. I always dreaded canning in my big canner because it’s time consuming and I didn’t feel like it was worth getting out for a few jars so I actually get more jars on the shelf doing small batches in the electric canner. I have no regrets buying it and I absolutely recommend it.
Should I be worried if my beef steak tomatoes haven’t started fruiting yet? I’m in zone 6 and I planted them in May from a starter
Did you do seed starting for all your flowers or direct sow? Maybe it’s my zone but I CANNOT get flowers grown by direct sowing except for my sunflowers 🌻
Wow! Your melons look amazing! 🤩 Do you ever struggle with vine borers? And if so, how do you deal with them?
I do but never had them mess with any cucumber/melon. Typically just target squash in my garden
@@itsbreellismy first time dealing with the vine borers so I’m learning a lot. Appreciate seeing your insect netting solution! And your garden is goals!! 😍
@@rachelbonner Thank you so much! Vine borer is the worst and Ive given up on growing most squash. Check out honey nut squash. I grew those the last few years and they are vine borer resistant!
@@itsbreellis Thank you!! I’ll have to look into it 😊
Beautiful garden, what part of the country are you?
Can you talk about your water jugs. I forgot what they are called that you planted at the beginning that you use. Do you continue to fill them up. Do you water them on top as well as using them?
That is a Oya! They help with watering! I fill them to the top and depending on the time of year/weather Ill refill it 1-3 times. Ive found they help most during extreme heat waves. I will have to hand water if I dont want my edges to dry out but overall they help!!
What do you do with the pots during the winter?
How do you water your beautiful garden?
Do you eat the seeds off your sunflowers?
How are your zucchini pollinated when using the cover?
So, what do you do with loofahs? Do you eat them???
I turn them into sponges. I gift a good amount to friends and family for holidays. Im going to play around with doing a few other things with them this year!
What are the green lid things buried in the garden near your peppers?
I was looking at those too. I’m guessing they’re ollas for watering.
Outside Growing , Working always to new efforts to keep alive healthy 🐔 🐑 🐮 etc vegetables fruits crops. One thing clear how to make happy Earth? Its true overheated Earth is 😠 to bad greedy natures & to happy to kindness caring of Earth thanks to visit to learn. Good Ho habits .
How many feet are between your beds for your cattle panel trellis? And what size of cattle panels did you use to create the arch?
I believe my garden beds are all 2 feet or very close to it. The trellis when arched are around 4 feet apart. They sit a foot into the garden bed and my tunnel is 4 foot wide. Cattle panels are 4x16
@itsbreellis awesome thank you! I have been wanting to create one in my garden I moved my beds to allow 2 ft. In-between them all but was curious what yours were. Since they look amazing 👏🤩 thank you!
Also what are you using to stake the trellis. Garden T posts if so what size 6 or 8 ft?
Do u know u can eat luffa? If not look it up edit be a great video to try it
It’s something I want to try this summer! I was going to wait until we got close to Aug/September once I know those ones won’t dry on the vine.
Do you own any brands
How many cantaloupe plants is that? Thanks
6 I tend to plant 2-3 per side.
How do your zucchini get polinated while covered?
I hand pollinate
What ever happen to the volunteer pumpkin?
I totally forgot to mention it in this video. I mentioned it in a few videos back. I started to noticed it was a cross if something ( some crosses arnt good so I pulled it because I wasn’t going to put a ton of effort into a plant I might not be able to eat. When I pulled it I found hundred of squash bugs eggs so I think that has helped control some of that population so far this year.
@@itsbreellis ok good to know
@breellis are all paste/roma tomatoes determinate??
Nope, San Marzano and Amish paste are 2 I know of that are indeterminate
@@itsbreellis good to know! I planted Amish, San marzano, and opalka
Where do you buy your seeds?
A few different places. Johnnys, botanical interests, high mowing, and renee’s garden have been my go tos
What’s deadheading?
Removing old flower blooms so they continue to bloom and not put effort into growing seed
Hi can you link the trellis?
Also how big are your bags where your jalapeños are at? Thank you!
Look up 16x4 cattle panel. Not sure what farm stores you have local but I snag mine from tractor supply.
How do you keep them standing? How deep do you have it in the ground? It's really windy where I am and all of my trellises keep falling over. Last night was terrible and I had a lot of pots with trellises fall over.
I attach them to tposts and tpost clips! You can find everything you need at most farm supply stores. Also super windy here, never had a issue!
@@itsbreellis hello from San Diego 🤗I have a tractor supply near by!
🤍🤍🤍 🇳🇵
Your speech cadence is migraine inducing
Hi beautiful，could you teach me how you prevent pests?
And what state is this? Does it have Japanese beetles? Does it have powdery mildew problem ? I really want to move to another state where there are fewer pest problems...
