THANK YOU FOR WATCHING & THE CONTINUOUS SUPPORT! I COULDNT DO THIS WITHOUT YOU!
I also live in Kansas and plant my Peppers and Tomatoes around the first week of May (5/3). When I first started gardening I started my peppers and tomatoes WAY too early and was worried about them getting root bound in the containers before I could transplant them outdoors. I realized if I leave them in the containers for too long I have to water them everyday because the plants absorb the water so fast and about twice a day when I’m accumulating them to the outdoor elements by hardening them off a week or so before I transplant them. After a few years of gardening I realized my containers that are 3.5”x3.5”x4” (LxWxH) gives me about 8 weeks from starting Pepper seeds (3/8) and 6 weeks from starting Tomato seeds (3/22) before transplanting outdoors. If anyone is a new to gardening id recommend doing some test planting in your containers to see how long it takes for them to get to transplanting size and then subtract the weeks from the date you plan on transplanting them outdoors.
I would love to see a diagram of how you are "placing" your plants this year. I would also like to see how you plan on replacing the plants when they are finished for the season. I am struggling with plant placement. I have some 4x8 beds where I'm not sure if I should plant 4 tomatoes down the middle with room for flowers and peppers on the sides or plant the tomatoes on one side and peppers and flowers on the other.
I love to dice up sweet peppers and freeze them. I toss them into anything from chili to tacos to soups to eggs. Bonus points if I freeze them mixed with diced onions. I also toss spicy peppers in the food processor and freeze them in ice cube trays to toss in the same kinds of dishes for some extra flavor.
We started our peppers the other day too! We are doing multicolor grand bells, cayennes, and Serrano chilis. Can’t wait to watch them grow🪴
So exciting!
Yes I started my seeds, you have inspired me. I have my onions growing and peppers seeded.
1:36 same, my average last frost date is April 17-19 but I don’t plant out frost tender until May 1st. I learned my lesson my first year of gardening when we had a late frost and I wasn’t home to cover my plants. I was heartbroken.
Ugh how heartbreaking!! I ran into a year I had to cover everything too and it was such a pain. Sometimes ill plant a few things but never the entire garden again. Not worth it lol
I think this is the best video I’ve seen you do! I love watching you go through the garden as I have 3 kids and sometimes I need my fix when I’m nap trapped haha, but you gave some amazing tips here!!! Your experience is showing girl, go you!!!! Loving it!!!!
Thank you so much!!!
I appreciate all your videos, especially because I also live in Kansas, and learning all the timing of things.😊
Thank you!
I love your content! I have learned so much!
I started my onions and peppers today. First year starting my garden. You have inspired me so much
So excited for you!! Hope you have a great gardening season!
Can’t wait!! I have missed your garden videos 🫶🏼 spring is so close!!!!
Thank you!! and yes Im counting down the days!
Your content is so interesting and informative! Please keep it coming!!
I’ve germinated my seeds for many years now, in wet coffee filters, sealed in plastic sandwich bags. They germinate almost twice as fast than in the dirt. Tomatoes germinate in 4-6 days and peppers 6-7 days. Then I move to my pots when green leaves are starting to emerge from the seed. You ensure every one you plant is successful. It’s much more fun to me, putting a live seedling into my starter pots. I feel like I’m a botanist. 😂 But you do have a much bigger gardens than I do, so maybe too time consuming for you to do.
I grew those lunch box peppers mix from Johnny's last year. I loved them. I also had people that I gave plants to say that it was their favorite pepper they grew.
Love to hear that! Thanks for sharing!
So much green in the grow room. I'm still about three weeks out from starting peppers but seeing your video and where your garden is at is making me excited about this growing season.
Your so close!! Its so nice to see more green!
Hi Bre! I just found your channel last week and I love your content. I’m a gardener planning to be a future homesteader in Western PA. this is my 4th year gardening!
Thank you so much!! Hope you have a great gardening season!! Year 4 was when I really started to feel the grove in gardening, there's always so much to learn and every year is different!
Hey! I'm in Kansas City - So excited to start my pepper plants in about a week or so. Your channel has grown so much since I subbed a few years ago !!! Happy Gardening!
Thank you! Hope you have a great gardening season!
Great video Bre!! My frost date isn’t until May22 so I have not started anything yet. I’ve learned from experience patience when starting lol
I also have made several flock blocks from your recipe and my girls LOVE them. I do add in a handful of dried herbs and some meal worms!
I love that! Thanks for sharing!! I love adding in some extras from time to time! and yes patience is better then being heartbroken lol
Love your content 😊
Thank you! 😁
Can u show us how to feed/fertilize plants or do you have a previous video of you doing it? I am a complete beginner :-)
Love that idea!
Getting ready for the garden season I am also going to be the small teddy bear 🧸🧸 sunflower we're you at the chief parade
Try Carmen peppers, (a bulls horn shape) it’s a hybrid. Wish it was an heirloom to save the seeds but they’re so good I don’t care. Very productive and super sweet when red, way sweeter than a red bell pepper. They can get thick walled too. This is the first year I’m not growing bells anymore, after 30 years of growing them. Carmen is so much better flavor. I’ve Been doing both for years and realized I like the Carmen way better. If you don’t want a hybrid, try a Marconi it’s an heirloom. Trying Marconi this year too. I want to see if it compares to the Carmen pepper.
Seeds are getting so expensive. Going to try to save seeds this year. Never really saved seeds. Almost all my plants this year, are heirloom or open pollinated so I can do that this year. Hope it works.
Thanks for sharing ill check those out!
HI! How far apart are you shelves for the onions? Thanks!
So i started my onion seeds on 1/27 and have only had 2 sprout... Do i have time to start some more or just try again next year?
Rosemary and I aren’t friends 😂 I can’t keep it alive at all.
lol its one Ive killed twice now!
Do you plan on covering your onions with some kind of frost fabric after you plant them outside?
The only time I did last year was a 2 day stretch. We had a low of 19 which is pretty cold for onions. Otherwise I let them be, they do well in the cold!
Bre. Please where did you get the paprika seeds? Could not see the packet.
They are from renee's garden! heres a link to them! - www.reneesgarden.com/products/hungarian-magyar?_pos=2&_sid=979a549a1&_ss=r
How often do you water soil blocks?
Probably 2-3 times a week at the moment.Just depends. I let things dry up and that always varies.
How often do you fertilize your seedlings and do you cold stratify your lavender?
It will depend on what you use. The stuff Im currently using the fish and seed weed is a every 7-14 day thing. Other liquid fertilizers would be closer to 3-4 weeks. and Nope I didnt, I was testing that out and they all germinated perfect!
@@itsbreellis Thank you and good to know! i forgot to put my lavender seeds in the fridge lol!
How often are you planning to fertilize your garlic? Im asking about both the nitrogen & the phosphorous applications. Once per week? Monthly? Thanks
Its been a 3-4 week thing in the past. Really depends on what you use. The fish and seaweed I mentioned can be applied every 7-14 days. I will probably only feed with bone meal ( phosphorous ) 1-2 times. If I use blood meal for nitrogen again it will be around the same. We are currently about 4 months until harvest around here, and I will cut back feeding for that last 3-4 weeks when scapes appear. Hope that helps!
@@itsbreellis Thanks, it does a lot
What size pots and where did you get the ones for the tomatoes and peppers in this video
They are bootstrap farmers 3.3in pots. Typically if I use a nursery pot my preferred size is around 3inches. These ones are nice because they are also deep! Theres a link to bootstrap farmer in the description! If your curious about anything else seed starting I probably mention it in this video - ua-cam.com/video/WemJA_uH3eA/v-deo.htmlsi=UnuSzDE8_dIv0FLA
@@itsbreellis Do you still need the 5 inch pots to up pot them? Or just for tomatoes?
Random question. Where did you get your overalls??
They are from Patagonia!
