St Cloud florida checking in. Napa cabbage, bok choy, red cabbage, romanesco, dino kale and traditional cabbage all doing great. Summer peppers and sweet potatoes still going strong. Trying my hand at romas and beefsteak tomatoes at the moment since the bug warfare is lessoned at the moment. As always everglades and other cherry tomatoes have volunteered themselves from my compost. Lemon cucumbers ,sugarsnaps and zucchini are all starting to spread their vines aswell.
I'm in St Pete over by the dog track. Can't remember the last time we've gotten down into the 40's in late Nov like the last couple nights. I have a ton of corky stem, have seen what I'm sure is caterpillar activity on the leaves, but I've never seen one caterpillar, and I've been looking for years now. Love the senna and the sulphurs it brings in.
they got my beauty berries as we'll. i went back to NY for 3 weeks and when i left each branch was full of purple berries, and when i got back about a week ago, nothing!!!! you are welcome Mr Mockingbird!
ive been trying a new method to get potting medium for transplants i intend to put into the ground. for step one i recommend finding a out-of-sight spot no one can fall into and maybe planting a tree afterwards -- 1part florida sand (dig away top 3-6in of top soil and grab from a little deeper down, there should be less weed seeds and more likely to be natural substrate) 1part finely sifted bagged mix 1/2 to 1part finely sifted matured charcoal w/ compost mix thoroughly, wet well wait 24 hours I'd like to see if using this sort of sludge as a medium for rooting/growing will help the plants naturalize to the soil instead of starting cuttings/seeds in straight peat moss, coir, water, play-sand or start mix. It's pretty mucky and holds water fairly well (hopefully not too well)
I thought my sister was weird for not liking corkystem passionfruit, but it seems like I'm the weird one for liking it. I planted some earlier this week, so more for the birds and I!
@WildFloridian I saw was super stoked to see u answered it in video! I am going to try it on our next cold snap see if it works.Doubt we will get a freeze thst will go that deep but willing to try. I have 2 patches of it next to my native flower garden and my veggie garden. Want to try everything else before resorting to pesticide
Still 9b here in West Land O Lakes. But the 10a line looks like it’s single digits miles away. My yard has a nature preserve to the North that blocks North wind and large pond nearby, so I have an experiment going with some hygrometers placed outside to see if that microclimate is enough to push me into 10a minimum temps.
My Tampa area is 10a now. I’m growing vegetables in a Vegega & a GreenStalk this season. So far it’s great! I removed a dead oak tree & decided to setup a new large native flowerbed in my front yard. I gave you a shout out when I went to the 3 native nurseries that you mentioned. I’ve been to the nurseries before, but this time I had a list! 😉 In the last 2 months I’ve added 50 native plants plus 1 native tree!! I appreciate all your knowledge & encouragement. 🤭💚❤

Those Green Bees are beautiful. Never saw one before.
They are 🤩 My variety of bees increased once I brought in native flowers

I just checked the updated planting map. Yay! I'm still in zone 10a!

That video is so ...em...🤔 informative, WOW! I've gotta watch it again 😅,... thank you 🙏🏽

Thanks for the motivation! I'm going to sort through my seeds, start some new plants and figure out what seeds I need to order or replace!

When you list the things to plant each month, is that to get them started indoors, or does that mean its time to transplant them?
I found a devils bean plant that came outta nowhere!
North FL gets frost
My climbing aster hasn’t flowered yet.
Good morning! If you by the planner book combo do you also get a hard copy of the book?
Good morning Maureen! ☀️ Yes the bundle is both physical copies (no digital) 😄
❤Great thank you very much!
So, how do I keep critters, aka geckos, from eating my young, tender pepper plants. I'm in Clearwater/st pete, is that now 10? Thank you!
Got hurricane-like weather just a couple of weeks ago, what even is this weather this year lol
