Planting Pumpkins in the Field by My House! | Gardening with Wyse Guide

  • I recently planted a whole swath of pumpkins in the field beside my house. You might ask: why do I plant so many pumpkins? I love to decorate with them in the fall and I love to grow varieties that you can't find easily. Plus, I grow a decent amount of squash that I eat all throughout the fall and winter.

    We planted our veg garden directly into mushroom compost last year and our pumpkins went crazy. They grew everywhere, on top of our stone walls and behind stone walls. I especially love the ones on top of the walls. So Halloweeny. Nothing like mushroom compost. We had a hot drought that summer and I barely had to water or weed. We got some mushrooms but that’s good.

    Ever since watching your kitchen cabinet refinishing video in 2020 as my wife and I prepared to do ours, (which turned out fantastic) I’ve watched most everything you post. I love your charisma, humor, and teaching ways. So glad I found you. Cheers

    Just found you yesterday! So impressed with your work ethic and knowledge. I was raised on a large ranch in north central Texas (flat land). The soil was too clayish to grow much, but my father, a livestock rancher, was very proud of his hay crops. I once asked my father if Texas A & M taught him everything he needed to be a successful farmer/rancher. He told me that although he read a lot of material at college and earned a Bachelor of Science in Animal Husbandry, the farmers on either side of our ranch helped him the most! As for the women, my mother, and grandmothers did a lot of canning (dilled okra, pickled beets, plum jelly). They have all passed on now. I miss them and find myself longing to do the things I fondly remember they did. Thanks again and happy growing!

    This is a great video, I have watched it several times. Since I was starting my seeds indoors, rather than directly in their new homes, I did not follow the vinegar jugs approach, but I did use some small, plastic apple sauce cups. It worked out great, I have Jack O' Lantern and Connecticut Field pumpkin seedlings erupting all over the place! Thanks for the inspiration!

  • @snowfuller7599
    @snowfuller7599 2 роки тому +1

    Have you ever tried soaking your seeds in water for a few hours before planting? I do, and the germination rate is up over 90%. I just soak the seeds, plant 3 in a clump and then thin as necessary. Most of the seeds will germinate so you can plant fewer seeds and thus saving money. Just a little tip. 👍👍

    That is such a beautiful backdrop when you are planting. It is so perfect and vibrant it actually looks like a fake green screen image lol. So beautiful. Love the plastic jug idea I’m gonna have to ask my neighbors to save them for me now. But do they blow all over when you have windy days? I really like the way you stagger the plants and plant one and each side of the bed seems like a really great idea I’m about to start planting my squash, first time from Drexel, so I’m gonna use some of your techniques thank you.

    I know some of those seed packets!!! I've planted some ornamental pumpkins for mom this year too and some ornamental heirloom yellow squash... purple & black tomatoes...little gem lettuce...rainbow carrots, scallions & cakes went in tonight as well as some black peony poppies and hot pink nicotiana....fingers crossed I keep it all alive!!!! Both my dad & grandpa had huge gardens, I did not seem to inherit that gene...thanks for showing us how to do it!!!!

    Your soil is so rich and fluffy. We have a lot of clay on the east side of the Mississippi, up river from you. This year I’m trying diatomaceous earth to reduce bugs chewing on leaves. Worked well when I was a “back to the lander hippie” in Kansas in the 70’s.

      Rvalene, I'm right there with you... I have 4 and I feel overwhelmed. Hopefully I can keep them all alive!!!! I had an "opportunistic " blue pumpkin grow a few years ago, right at the edge of my driveway....I did nothing to it and it still gave me a beautiful new pumpkin that fall!!!! I was so happy!!! I love the blue ones!!!

    I'm a little early to the party when it comes to pumpkins. Last year we celebrated the end of harvest by smashing one pumpkin... silly us, we didn't clean up the seeds. I saw pumpkin sprouts? shoots? babies? seedlings? I saw pumpkin seedlings in the early spring (March-April) and thought I'll water them and see what happens. Connecticut Field Pumpkins is what's happening now. I already harvested two, still have two more ripening, and countless others beginning to develop. It's never too early to practice carving skills 🤷‍♀️🤣

    The soil looks rich and fertile which probably helps the pumpkin seeds grow? Those of us who live in areas where it rarely rains in the summer wish we could get by with only watering occasionally?

    I look at the plastic jugs as helping to create a crib for the "baby plants" or an incubator like farmer's have for the "baby chicks".... Growing up in a rural area I can say farmers and their kids are No strangers to work.

    How did you prep your field? We have a space that we planted and it’s just awful with the weed. We clearly did not get ahead of it. But I’m also thinking the field prep could have been better.
