You have an amazing camera presence. I love how it feels like I’m talking to a friend in the garden.
Awww thank you! I always hope people feel like they are in the garden with a friend. Thank you very much for this comment!
My husband said you should be the next one to have a tv show ❤
I agree! 💯
Yesssss!
Awww that’s so nice of him! 🫶🏾
You are a delight to watch out in your garden! Your smile is contagious! I would love to have a neighbor like you!
Happy gardening!
Awww thank you!
🤣 OMG! I could not stop laughing when you said, “That was a waste of a bag. That’s what that was.” You are hilarious! 🤣💚
Good morning, Asia! I was so happy to see you and hear your theme song this morning. Watching you helps my gardening anxiety. Thanks for the video, and happy growing 💚 🌻
Awww I’m so happy to hear that! You’re welcome!
Glad you're finally able to get some rest. Regarding your blueberries: Pick and just throw in a freezer bag. Keep adding to it, if you can't eat enough fresh and don't want them to spoil.. The frozen berries are perfect for hand pies or regular pies. Especially when temps get cooler. I DO mind sharing them with the birds!
As well as smoothies, acai bowls and snacking
Thank you for all you do for us, new gardeners. ❤️ ❤
I feel you on the overtime! I have ten minutes left of my 4 days of being on call. Can't wait to turn my pager off. The feeling of having some time to yourself is PRICELESS! lol. Your garden is looking phenomenal!!!
Hi Alyssa! So happy to hear you are off of the overtime train too! I agree 100%! Thank you!
😂😂the mouse stopping in to say hey…..when I don’t have potatoes in the bag I be like what else can I put in this bag full of soil 😂😂
Flower garden part of your garden is just fabulous along with all the great vegetables you are growing
Such a good potato haul!
Thank you!!
That potato harvest will do a couple of meals, love harvest videos, love all the flowers too.
I agree! We ate some with dinner last night! Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you!
Great harvest, enjoyed the time with you in your backyard garden 😊🥰
Sorry to hear your garden got tore up but I know you can put it back together. You are just an awesome friend and an awesome Gardener will always love your garden tours hugs and kisses from grandma Sandy, and
Lots of honey in echinacea tea! Your incoming cold will disappear over night! So pretty Asia.
Ok thank you! I’ll be giving that a try!
For the mouse issue, mix baking soda, corn meal and cocoa powder together. Leave it near the plants, they will eat it, and explode as they cannot burp or fart out the gas that builds up within their stomach's.
Wooohooo~! I have been patiently waiting for your post…whew…got my fix 😂…thank you💕
Lol it’s been tough getting content out. I appreciate the support!
I have no idea how you do as much as you do. You are doing a great job, my dear friend hugs and kisses from grandma, Sandy, and Debbie.
Hi Asia. ..Good to see that you are getting a break from the overtime. I heard U speaking 2day about not having straw down yet. I know U're OK with risking being affected by bad hay straw. (We too used to buy it from Tractor Supply.)But why risk contaminating your soil and not being able to plant for years and years and years. Why not do what we've done and switch to Pine straw. Just for your consideration. It Will Not make your soil acidic. There would have to be years and years of accumulation and breaking down of the pine straw for your soil to be changed to acidic; and zero risk of being affected by Grazon. If you do decide to stick with the hay...test it first. Wet it down, dig some holes in top, place some soil in...pop in a few tomato plants, wet them and you will know in less than 2 weeks if the hay was sprayed with Grazon. Those plants will be on their way out. And you will know it! It won't look anything like transplant shock; and you'll only be out of that money instead of your entire garden space...for years. We did that last year and we're so happy we did. That hay was terrible. (And..full disclosure, that was not purchased hay..but hay we grabbed from a curbside after that prior halloween and kept until last spring. So we don't know where that came from. But again, why risk it. The consequences can be too dire.)
I came across your account through the Exploring Alternatives account and what a JOY it was to find you. I sadly don't have access to a garden due to living in an apartment building but I'm hoping to be able to grow even small little things in pots in my apartment. I love watching homesteading videos but so many of them are vast spaces, seeing your bountiful garden in a space that's not absolutely huge is an inspiration to me 💛
Yes Jess is the main reason we growing shishito peppers we sauté and make like oyster sauce to drizzle on them ☮️❤️💡
So grateful for the experience you offer. Thank you for posting 😊
Thank you, so glad you enjoyed it! You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
Lovely! Always so inspiring thank you! ❤I harvest my daisies medicinally (tea) as well..great for colds, bronchitis, inflammation liver& kidney health
Don’t forget to get your seeds out of the head when you take the pedals off the Calendula.
The broken pepper plant, just plant it 1/2 a foot to a foot deeper into the soil or a tall pot or container. it might re-root
I throw berries (and tomatoes) in the freezer until I have enough to process for jam or tomato sauce. Sometimes you get too much to eat fresh but not enough to can. I can't tell the difference between fresh and frozen in jams or sauces. I freeze in a single layer on a sheet pan and then store in a plastic bag.
so happy you have video out i harvested lettuce Bok choy yesterday but my garden is behind you
Hi Asia!
I watched this video yesterday on my large screen television. I came back to leave you a comment letting you know I’ve been here. 😜
Potatoes look really nice!
Not a mouse. Chileeee. 😂 😮
Have a great rest of your week!
Don’t work too hard.
Hey Nikki!
Thanks for watching and coming back to comment.
Thank you!
That was my thought too! 🤣
Thank you! You do the same!
Thank you! I’m on vacation now so I’m good on the not working too hard part lol.
Oh nice! Enjoy your vacay! 🏖️ 🏊♀️ 😊
I added some frozen Blue Berries to some apple juice ,it turned into a Slushy drink almost as fast as I added them. Was good on a hot day.
Girl, your garden is looking so lush and beautiful ❤ The flowers are amazing!
I love your videos. So far, I have had better luck growing red potatoes and russet potatoes than the other ones. So that makes sense to me. I don't mind sharing my blueberries with the birds as long as they don't get too greedy. 🤣
I stumbled across your channel a few days ago and I love it here. I'm so glad to have found a channel that I relate very closely to. I do not have a lot of space so I do a lot of vertical gardening and container gardening. Your content is very exciting to watch!
Hi 👋🏾! Welcome to the channel!
I grew candy cane zinnias this year too! Zinnias are my favorite to grow. It gets so hot here and they don’t mind. We bought one of those white feed cans that seals from tractor supply and it works great and bugs don’t get in it either. The birds have been in my garden a lot this year! It’s been fantastic, they’re eating bugs not my food. I keep two bird baths full of water for them. I also have a cardinal nest in one of my arch trellises and a nest in my greenstalk. 😂 your garden looks beautiful!
Good Morning Asia. So good to have you back. Thank you for your video and your positive spirit.😊
Asia, keep a cardboard egg carton to hold your eggs instead of the basket
My sister bought me that seat for my birthday. Best thing ever. ❤
my blueberries bushes are very full i put netting over when they turn blue.
Love love love your garden tours!!! Every thing looks so good.
Beautiful flowers you have there. Whether its for decorative or medicinal purposes, do enjoy your blooms.
You are so entertaining! I love love love your garden.😂
Sis, I love your content. I'm about to be an urban gardener myself. Got a few seeds and a few pots Gotta start somewhere ☺. Girl, I be feeling like I'm chilling with you in the yard.
I just happened upon you because of Exploring Alternatives. Immediately came to your channel to follow!!! Wishing GREAT success!!!! 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
Good morning, Asia 😊
Hi Asia, thanks for sharing your harvest.
I like your garden 😊so much to harvest 👍and I love your nails 🤩thanks for the video ❤
Good work Asia, enjoy the harvest!
Thank you for sharing your garden!!!
I enjoy watching your videos. Nice potato haul. Thank you for sharing!
I have learned so much from you! Thank you for sharing your passion.
I feel for you with the mouse. I just got back from buying mouse bait to put in my garage. A little mouse ran in there from the garden. I hate those things! You're right to get on it right away! Good luck to you. Your harvest is wonderful!
Asia you have some of the prettiest flowers throughout your garden. None of mine sprouted. I really enjoy your channel. I learn a lot from you!🙏🏽💜💜💜🫂
I love your tee shirt! And your joy.
Hey sis the leaves and petals of the calendula are medicinal and edible!!!!!! When I saw you drop it I was like….wait!
Hey! Yeah I save the flowers that aren’t spent. I throw the spent flowers in the bed in hopes of getting volunteers next year lol!
The garden is so beautiful, I love it Asia💖💖🌹🌹
It Looks like a lot of flowers to me 😊Just Beautiful ❤
I enjoy your channel so much and have learned a great deal of info. Thank you!!!
You flowers are 'eating''😘
Echinacea is beautiful
Hello Asia! I have SOME STRAY CATS that love to get in my garden. Have ruined my tricolor carrots!😬🏹🪀⛏️
It’s so exciting because I’m not far from you so I love watching your videos, gets me excited for my garden💕
The mouse might be the reason for the cat.
Probably 😩🤣
Very Very Nice Garden, THANK YOU
I envy you your warm weather! Things have just barely gotten started growing here in Seattle. 🌿
Hi Asia! I enjoyed your video so much.beautiful harvest !! I planted out my Cinderella pumpkin plants today. I added some composted chicken manure and all purpose fertilizer down in the holes. Just in time too cuz I live on the Gulf coast and we’re gonna get heavy rain... so the pumpkins will settle in nicely. Oh yeah and some butternut squash also. I’m in 9B and have a long growing season .
nice, lush green garden!
OMG! Loved your harvest! Dreaming about being able to do the same one day!
I love the stool I got mine last month from Ollie's store. Great price
Beautiful harvest 💜💜💜
I, really enjoyed and appreciate your Video's
Just a thought...MICE + Cat = NO Mice! Thank You Asia XO🍒
Hi Asia your garden is lovely ❤
I enjoyed the vlog 👍🏾🌱
I planted my Shishitos in the ground in mid may (my yard was torn up and I didn't know I would garden this year) and they are TINY even now. I know peppers grow slow but sheesh? I was hoping they might catch up? I might be silly to even try. I love seeing yours!
Bless you! 🤧
Thank you lol
Ooohhh, we got a videooooo🎉
Finally 🤣🤣. Thanks for watching!
Thanks friend 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
❤❤❤ nice harvest
Looks like too much work dumping out those bags. I have a 4'x4' raised bed and just use my digging fork to dig up the potatoes and I planted like 20 eyes.
Great harvest Asia! 😊 Thanks for sharing! ❤️
Hey Aisha been missing you glad you were able to get all the things done …deaf heading you just pull it off and drop it on the soil?
i like small potatoes
Hi
Just checking in. It's been a while. I know life is life, but wanted to make sure all is well. 😊
Gorgeous harvest😍 When you plant your potatoes in the bags do you put all the soil on top at once and leave them, or do you top it up as the greens grow?
Thank you! I put all the soil in and then plant the potato deep. I don’t add more soil as they grow.
Thanks for the video
Beautiful harvest! Do you take pictures of your harvest. Beautiful 💜💜💜
Thank you! Yes, I post them on IG mostly.
Nice spuds!
I battled a rabbit..cat and a squirrel who is obsessed with burying walnuts..lol
Thanks Mike! O no! I can only imagine lol. Hopefully you can ward them off soon!
@@YellowDoorUrbanHomestead I used dollar store wire baskets to cover the plants..it helped 😁💚
Thanks for sharing!
Do you ever make rose water from the roses? It’s good for skin and hair. Very simple to make 😊
I haven’t but I’ll look into it! Thanks for the suggestion!
Nice harvest , is the blue potatoes blue in side ?
Yes, the potatoes are blue inside.
Thank you! More purple, but yes the potato is a color all the way through.
Just order my Home & Garden Trends Garden Kneele thank you for sharing .( I use your code)
O yay! Thank you! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
Hello, Asia. Did you stop posting on the other channel? I would love to see the room tour .
Hi! I have had to take a break but I’m coming back. I have a lot of footage just haven’t had a chance to edit it lol.
Nice video.
Your garden is so beautiful ❤
How do you get Peppers to grow, I have the worst luck with them.
Ok Asia,awesome display of gardening. A beautiful sister 1st and foremost. I love that you are self-sufficient and doing well with your production. I would love to have you as my friend, wife, etc etc. But would truly love to have you help me out with mine. I'm in the capital of Louisiana. I think im in zone 7 or 8. Give me some feedback when time permits. Don't wann sweat u,😅. But I could love you for a lifetime. Sincerely, Michael Simmons
For mice, voles,? Recruit a garter snake or two!
She doesn’t like snakes! Said so in her last video. 🤷🏾♀️
Our gardens are an ecosystem! Not only does it feed us, it feeds other living things!
If garter snakes are in your garden, it's because their food source is there! I'm not a fan of snakes but I understand that they take care of the critters I don't like (voles, mice, chipmunks, shrews, etc.).
They may now be drawn to your garden! Please don't drive them away. They will get out of your way faster than you will get out of their way!
Happy Gardening!
Yikes, I don’t like snakes lol.
@@YellowDoorUrbanHomestead Ha Ha! If you build it they will come! The mice are building their nest, garters will come.
Good evening Sis. Your comfrey is so beautiful... Did u plant that from seed??? I live in Connecticut and can't find it... Any
suggestions????
Good Evening to you!
Good Evening!
Where do you get your landscaping cloth. It looks like the professional strength
I got it from Vevor. There’s a link below.
I am working on building my walkways in my backyard. I see you put down heavy duty weed barrier. How long does it last before a new layer has to be put down?
Thank you for sharing….
I think I’ve had it down for a year or so. It’s still in good shape. I got it from Vevor. It’s pretty thick and seems to be really good quality.
@@YellowDoorUrbanHomestead
That is the name brand of weed barrier that other homesteaders are using. ☺️👍🏾
Thanks Again🙏🏽!
Jealous about those sweet blueberries , bought a basket from Kroger $7.99lb half was bad and the others were so sour for fruit tray so disappointed
😘
Keep those worms ❤❤❤
