We’re only at the midpoint of June but I think Jason already deserves to be named the DPWR Employee of the Month! 🏆🇨🇦
Hi Janey : about aphids to get rid of them the solution is compagnonnage as we call it in France. So to avoid this little things, you'll plant aromatic plants around your trees and other plants you want to protect. Aphids don't like strong odors, and the advantage of aromatic plants is that they have a strong scent. Repellent plants are dill, basil, thyme, chives, mint.
Thank you for the info. !!
Cinnamon powder?
Calendula aswell
Well, good morning to you again today. I see Monty on the job getting his paw Prints in the dirt to make sure you're doing everything correctly. Such a sweet sweet Puppy. I'm the same way, I do not like to pinch my flowers. Because I sacrificed beauty but in the end we reap the rewards. Way to go janey put on your big Girl pants do the jobs we have to do and be rewarded. So proud of your garden for you what a work of Labor in love. Have a blessed day the oklahoma gardener
Thank you so much for this advice. I will use it in my garden. We struggle greatly with them.
So sweet of you to WRENTyour wreath to the little wren.
How do you know it’s a wren?
@@cindielbrecht557 ok spare room for a sparrow!
Aren’t you one lucky girl with a hubby who does the drip irrigation! 🧑🌾👩🏼🌾
Maybe Jason would be willing to do a little series on how to do drip irrigation from scratch, like from a water spigot, not from an in-ground system?
Yes!! I’m so curious about drip! I need drip in my garden and have no clue about it or how to properly set it up… does it drip all day…
The water pressure on my outside faucet is kind of powerful so I’m wondering if it could even handle it I don’t know. I just need help!! Help Jason!! 😂😂🙌🏼🙌🏼
I didn’t know you can pinch zinnias I just had to pinch my green pepper plants and it hurt my heart, but I knew I had to
I like your T-shirt Janey, ❤ (Robbie)
Robbie of visit our garden Robbie? 😊
@abeerali7834 yes, love Robbie's page also, I like that they help each other out
Hi Janey, so cute this little mummy bird and the nest and the eggs ! Jason and you are so incredible and nice people ! I love it !
I read about ants this :
- Chalk: natural ant repellent to apply in the form of a line or crushed to places where ants pass.
- Essential oils like lemongrass, peppermint, or cinnamon oil can be mixed with water and sprayed on fruit trees. Ants hate these smells, which will discourage them from climbing.
- Another way : These insects almost hate the smell of lemon. To prevent ants from climbing the tree, simply mix one quarter lemon juice with three quarters water. Then, spray all the trees with the solution obtained.
Why shouldn't you kill ants?
Ants recycle all garden waste: plants and animals. They thus enrich the soil while preventing the proliferation of diseases. Nearly 90% of animal corpses end up in anthills. Few gardeners realize the major effect ants can have on other garden pests. Very often, it is the ants that keep them under control. Ants limit the development of many unwanted things - flea beetles, earwigs, slugs, etc.
Have a nice day !
7:16 it is at this very moment I said to you “Janey, you need the “Laura edition“ 3” auger.”
The bird nest on the wreath is too precious, I just can’t …😭😭😭💕.
Team work makes the dream work! I love that you have a bird next with 5 eggs in it and a mama bird 🐦. You have taken an sad country property and made it a haven for Life. And honestly that is part of planting a garden all around your home. Congratulations the nature loves the gardens too! I have had mocking birds and Cardinals this year.
You can always pinch half and leave half that way you get early blooms on some and early branching on others 😀
Good job💓💓💓💓💓💓SUPPORT FOR YOU
Hi Janie, In regards to temporary solutions to keeping Monty out of spaces, Box stores have temporary black fencing that sets up very easily. I use it as trellis for vines, to keep rabbits out of veg garden, around new plants until established. It’s very versatile, easy to work with, stacks for storage, isn’t ugly, and there is a short version and taller version. It was worth the investment because I’ve found so many uses! Loving how your garden is coming along. Thanks for bringing us along 😊
Janey I just have to thank you so much for sharing about Vego garden beds with your audience! I work for a nonprofit that is starting a garden and I suggested reaching out to Vego to see if they might donate some beds after seeing them do the same for your daughters' school. And... they are going to donate 2 large beds to us!! What an awesome company! Thank you for choosing to work with companies that give back to communities. I'll definitely be buying a Vego bed very soon for my own home to support such a great business.
Seeing the picture of the future design, makes me sad it will block how pretty you've got the house looking! The zig zag planter and hanging baskets and entryway look so beautiful!
Such a prodyctive day, Janey! Plants are looking great!
The little nest reminds me of your hummingbird nest 🪺 above your garage in your last home ✔️
Happy Father’s Jason , hope u and family enjoy your day 😎
Great video - LOVE, LOVE the opening shot of the single flower. Sometimes 'less is best'. Gardens look great, hardworking Jason and Janey ❤
Thanks for the ant/aphid info. I will put it to good use. I had thought the ants were eating the aphids. 😅
I planted all types of daisy's. My Alaskan daisy's are up to almost 5 foot in full sun. They thrive up here in our cooler weather by the Sea 🌲 🌊 Humboldt county Northern California. Folsom California native moved away to get out of that horrible hot 🔥 summers. Happy gardening 💚🙌🌿
Have you considered shifting the gazebo to the left to block your propane tank? Just an idea to flip it…this would also allow people who pull up to see your right side, like your star jasmine wall and get a peek at your secret side garden entry…I know there will be the dry creek bed that will lead to the gazebo, but perhaps it could wind over to the left…all just a thought.
That's great! Thank you for sharing! Blessings!
First off, I LOL when she said we aren’t going to plant in the center island and then filled it with cut flowers. 😂. Second, I didn’t know that about the ants. That explains a lot. Thanks for that info. Now I know what to do when I see the ant trails.
I always wonder how you do it: gardening in that heat in jeans! 😅
I cannot wait to see the cut flower garden come to life!🌻🌻🌻
Is it weird that I want to be Monty for a week?
It just seems he’s got it so easy and all figured out 😊❤
Haha! I have never wanted to pinch my flowers back either for the same reason and this morning I just grabbed the pruners and went for it. I did it fast so I wouldn't change my mind. Thanks for the ant info!
Pro Tip (from a total amateur 😅): stake the amaranth. It gets so tall and the plumes get so heavy that it flops. Everything is looking beautiful! 🌿💚
Good Morning, I have idea to block your white water tank, grow evergreen tall close to each other around it, when you move it to another place, then you can remove ever green to plant some where
Janey : you have lavender and you love it ! You can plant lavender around your tree !
You can also use diatomaceous earth around tree it is chemical free takes care of any bugs
Janey, have you thought about painting the propane tank to look like a giant watermelon or ear of corn, until you have another solution? If you Google "Paint propane tank to look like a giant watermelon," you will find lots of images. Maybe this is way too silly(?) since your other projects are more grown up looking. I've been enjoying following your progress!
Terro Ant traps have worked the best for me.
Good morning 🎉🎉🎉
Hi Janey🌺 . Very cool video of planting and you choose a beautiful color of sun flowers .The zinnias are going to be amazing . Have a wonderful day .🌻🌺🌻
Morning ☕
Good morning Janey, I love your channel
Way to go jason you are such a trooper👍
Thanks for your videos, Janey. I enjoy them and learn a lot. Love from San Antonio, Texas.
DE …. and where you live,it will work longer. I live in the PNW, lots of rain…so I have to reapply a lot…but it works! Research it
Love your 4 legged shadow what a sweetie oh and your garden looks great 😏
Cute T-Shirt.👍🌸
We had the same situation with a Robin building her nest in our front door wreath. My husband used flagging tape 😅 to block our front door entrance until the fledglings left. We removed the nest and Mom started a new one so we removed the wreath.
Thanks for sharing the info about the ants. I never knew. I will now know what to do if I see ants! Thank you!
Good morning Janey, Google - ideas on hiding a propane tank. There are really a lot of creative and cute ideas.
HAPPY GARDENING!
Hi Janey,I keep looking at your gas tank and obviously the placement could be better. It is though part of what needs to be there so I love your idea of planting around it, fencing it in or putting some sort ok pump house type of structure. Everything is looking lovely and pretty soon you’ll not even realise it’s there. Beautiful work you and Jason have done on your land❤
I didn’t know that about ants either! Thanks for the info! Also, I got my first overalls from Duluth! I love them♥️♥️
Hi! In your june garden tour, you said you wanted more trees. Do you know chitalpa or chilopsis? Those trees have beautiful flowers, are drought tolerant and would thrive in your zone 😊 You should look them up!
I have found that scale is prone to citrus also. I had ants show up and there were scale . I finally
Got rid of them and now last year I had over 100 lemons on my tree which is in a pot on my deck here on the Oregon coast.
Good tip for the ants! Thanks!
I would go ahead and plant all the trees that
You wanted for that area.
Hey Janey, any chance you might like to adopt some lisianthus seedlings for your cut flower garden? I started way too many! I’d love for them to go to a good home.❤
a regular strong blast of water knocks off the aphids, etc off the tree also. a garden group i belong to recommends terri ant bait also. but with a dog, that may not work
I just discovered ants on my citrus tree and it was due to a scale infestation. I pruned off the infected branches and sprayed the bottom of the tree trunk with a concentrated orange oil product. The orange oil kills ants on contact, but more importantly it also keeps them from climbing up the tree. The ants will not cross the orange oil area. Repeat applications are necessary as the oil wears off however. I did try the plastic wrap and Tanglefoot tree insect barrier idea, but my ants just found a way to crawl under the plastic wrap no matter what I did to stop them.
What about a wattle structure around the propane tank or berries?
I added a wattle structure around a transformer in my backyard and grew heavenly blue morning glory over it, cheap easy and temporary bc the electric company has an easement and didn’t want them to dig up expensive shrubs or structures
haha pinching blooms is painful but worth it - you get double blooms! lol
Hi Janey love your videos … will you guys move .. bury if you can … or just mask the big white tank …,is it a propane tank ?
Need to stake the amaranth, or plant close together. They will flop in the wind. I plant them like corn in a square of 10ftx10ft so they can lean on each other. It gets taller than corn, like 7 to 8ft tall if it is loving its life. 😮It self seeds like crazy. Once you plant amaranth you never have to plant it again.
Thinning for me is the same as pinching😂 I just can’t do it. Everything grows just fine.
Good morning Janey. I have a crepe myrtle that is getting too tall for me to prune. Your tree was so beautiful. Did you prune it every year?
Good morning Janey, can you let us know in the next coffee chat which flowers require pinching and which don’t ? Just annuals and ones that shoot up with single stems? I have dahlias, zinnias, snapdragons, hollyhocks, lupine, sunflowers and have never pinched but I’m a newbie gardener.
Any of the ones you listed can be pinched to encourage more branching.
I haven’t pinched much over the years, I usually wait like Janey and cut the first blooms back to the next branches as soon as they show up. It has a similar effect and I get to enjoy the early blooms! I’ve never pinched Hollyhocks (that depends on variety, some only have a single stem) and of course don’t pinch single sunflowers, just the branching types.
Have no knowledge how this works, but does the leach field in the front oval add water and nutrients to the soil? Thank you for the update on your cut flower garden. I like the idea of planting out beyond the front fence. Because of the septic field, are you prohibited from planting trees? Also, I presume you're waiting for the gas tank to be relocated before planting something permanent.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
I had a bird nesting in my wreath a few years ago. I did the same as you and didn't use the front door for a while.
Does the sticky product hurt lizards? Would they get stuck?
Hi Janey, where are you sourcing Land and Sea (or are you working with Espoma and they ship to you direct)? We cannot ever find it locally (Sacramento area). Do you have an E.B. Stone alternative? Also, do you pinch back Gomphrena or leave it be?
Janey, I have ants in Cherry tree, should I put the same stuff you're using in orange tree?
Is Monty named after the famous Monty Don? He also has a golden.
Where did you find Land and Sea compost in California? I’m in Southern California and I haven’t been able to find it anywhere.
The ants also eat the giant swallowtail eggs.
Can you tell me where you buy your land and sea products
It kills me to prune the flowers back too.
Where do we submit our “show me your garden” videos??
💖🌸👍🏻🌸💖
Ps I don’t like to snip on my flowers either it’s scary!
You also could wrap the trunk with duct tape, sticky side out.
Grey-water system - to irrigate plants...
In regards to ants, I learned if you sprinkle uncooked cream of wheat, the ants take it back to their home, eat it and explode. Ants are gone in two days.
I am wondering if your Zinnias are getting too much water. The emitters are really close.
PS just noticed it’s a propane tank … lol
Yep our car is so sticky right now from our pecan tree. It’s awful. Awful lol AWFUL 🤪
Try some DE won’t hurt animals.
In my garden (not too far from yours) amaranth is a horrible, self-seeding thug. I will never plant it again.
⚠️⚠️ If you leave the Bird there and they hatch before the babies fly away there (will be) poop everywhere and the stinch will be awful not to mention staining and every year they will return. I do have personal experience 😢😢😢
I strongly suggest you move them now. The mama will find them...I know you want to do the right thing like I did...but TRUST ME... It will NOT be a good experience 😢
