    Seed Video Enthusiast tuning in:
    Droughts suck (speaking as an Australian), but that drip irrigation Mike so kindly installed is going to be a lifeline. I love mine.
    It's fun trying to work out what to plant mid-season :P good luck, and may your harvest be plentiful.

      Thanks Buddy!! I’m so happy for that irrigation. I think we are on a daytime water ban so I’ve been using it sparingly but even with spare use it’s been amazing!

    I just have a small balcony garden so I started a bunch of flowers from seeds this year and I always learn a lot from you! I can’t wait to grow veggies and have a larger garden one day. I grew romaine lettuce on a windowsill indoors in a long container and it was heavenly. Thanks, as always, for the inspiration!

      Growing flowers is so rewarding, I have to talk veggie growers into it sometimes! I hope you get to expand soon, but there’s lots of possibilities in small spaces. 💚

    We got poured on last night! Wahoo! I was thinking of putting some more Swiss chard. We picked a bunch for dinner the other day... delicious! Thanks for the fall planting ideas! I bought watermelon radish seeds. Looking forward to trying them!

    Hi Pam. I can’t wait to see how your garden progresses. Just found your channel recently. I’ve watched your video on pepperomia’s quite a few times, my favorites. Thanks for your wonderful videos.

    Thanks for sharing…lucky you friends with seeds😀I didn’t plant any beets or buy many seeds this spring and now I’m on the hunt for some fall seeds. I did start some lettuce and brussel sprouts and I have a few other seeds to use up. I’m just starting to get some zucchini since I started my plants later in the season hoping to avoid squash bugs. I tried peas once in fall and didn’t do well but I’m thinking of trying again just to see if it goes any better; peas are a great spring crop for me. This heat wave and drought is making it difficult to even think about gardening or maybe it’s my senior status 😜at any rate I’ll keep growing what I do have and hope for the best.

      Thank you! I do, I just don’t want to use anything in my garden like that if I can avoid it because I am a monarch waystation. Too many good caterpillars under my care to risk it but maybe once I install the row cover! I appreciate the tip though thank you!!

      @@PamsPrettyPlants From what I understand, the caterpillar would have to eat the leaves of the plant you spray BT on. I don't think monarchs like collards.... I know they LOVE dill. I see their caterpillars on my dill and carrot tops every year

    Wow what a gift to receive! I’d be thrilled! Also I don’t think Danvers are hybrid…they’d say F1 or something no? Pretty sure the number just means that’s the selection in a trial that worked best. Or something. Or at least that’s (close to) what I’ve heard…🫠

    • @PamsPrettyPlants

      I’m not sure what I said that you’re responding to but I know Danvers carrots are heirloom so if I said otherwise I probably misspoke.
