What a wonderful bunch of Promise! Those blooms and baby fruits are building excitement for the harvest. My allysum stayed very small, but still bloomed and I agree how lovely those tiny flowers are. Also, it seems your elderberries are ahead of ours here in NW Georgia - ours are only just starting to open. It's so fun to see how, even though we are in a very similar area of the country, different plants just go at their own timing and everything is still beautiful!
I have a few different types and this one is the biggest I have. I forget the variety but the other 7 plants are not budding yet I don't think.
Are your blueberry plants chandler or big bush?
High bush
I bought Legacy Blueberries, they get 5-6 feet high and about 3 feet wide each
I'm having such a a hard time 😂 I'm 22 I bought a 103 year old house in the fall. Our yard is an absolute mess, the lady who lived here I guess chaos gardened. Now I have trout lilies, strawberries, raspberries, wild chives, ditch lilies, peonies, and a few randoms ALL over my yard. I didn't have a good idea until the last two weeks, I live in MI UP and our trees are only just getting full leaves. And on top of all that I don't even own a lawn mower yet! Wish me luck this year attempting to organize 😂
BEST of luck and congrats!!!
Gotta love a chaos garden !! It’s going to look amazing when everything blooms ! Enjoy the process and huge congratulations for buying a house at 22 that’s amazing !
To this lady that bought a 105 yr old place...I would start pulling out the weeds as in digging them up as U may find old fashion plants come back to life and resurface wait until flower I think there is an App that will tell name of plant they could be very rear so you may want to get incontact with a specialist company or hertiage group as they may want them for future generations...
But, the other plants U have put in your message you may want to dig them up after the first year and spilt them and plant new places...they sound lovely..just don't use a tructor to dig up the whole yard as that would be a shame...just see want pops up...😂❤😂❤goodluck...I live in Aust so I am getting into Winter but we don't get snow here just gets cold...😅😅😅
I love that the kid’s garden is raised beds too! Beautiful! I have a couple raised beds and I’d love to have more! It’s only my second year gardening so I’m in the learning process. Seeing all your plants wants me to plant it all!
We have been loving gardening in raised beds where we are! The ground is just to wet a lot of the year! ♥
Your beds look amazing, despite all the rain/hail. It's too bad about the lettuce. Your greenhouse sure is placed the correct direction. My Son will be stationed near you at Ft. Knox, starting in November. Looks like it's a couple hours from you. I'll try to stop by over the next couple years to say hello! Hope your weather is better soon. Cheers Heather!
YES please let me know when you are close by!!
Your garden is looking awesome! You ae so inspirational and I love how you look at the good in everything. I appreciate you being that breath of fresh air in these dreary days. THANK YOU!!
As always, your garden amazes me at the growth in only one week!! Sorry to see the hail hit your lettuce beds and thank goodness the hail wasn't larger!! Thanks for sharing and stay safe!🙏❤
Good morning!!!! It’s always a great morning when I can start it by watching a Sage and Stone video!!! ❤️❤️
I love that! Good morning! ♥
I put mine up on my own pole a d used shower hooks from the dollar store- attached them over a year ago and they are perfect
I have clay in the ground too. It’s a pita!❤
Everything looks amazing ❤
Awesome garden Heather. You are doing so well. I found the clips that you are using. I will order them for my spring, for the tomatoes. Thank you for sharing. Love and Blessings to you all. ❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏 Doris, Penrith 🇦🇺🦘
They are so easy to use!!
We have Couch grass in the way you have Bermuda grass, and it is just as much a pain to keep under control. When Jess first moved to their new place she made a video about it, and like I said to her, it's best to think of those perennials literally as solar energy stores, with the leaves as solar panels, the root systems as the battery that they are constantly charging to keep producing more solar panels. Keep ripping out the solar panels and after a while the battery gets weak, then dies. The problem is which one of us is faster, the plant, or us? Annoyingly, the plants only have to use their time popping up in the places we don't want them, and often sulking in the places we do 🤣
With the Bermuda too it has solar panels outside the bed and sends the batteries under it to get to the rich soil of the garden. It is hard to get rid of fully because it will send those roots from afar!
Awesome beautiful garden. Where do you get your herb seeds/ plants . Just bought are house want good quality that last for years. Thanks
I've gotten them from all over, really! This year I planted a lot from Sow Right Seeds and Baker Creek Heirloom seeds. We also have a local plant nursery that is Amish-owned that we go to regularly.
Elderflower syrup is very popular on the Continent, especially in eastern Europe. And it means you can store it and enjoy the taste of spring through the winter months. Would highly recommend as an easy way to process a lot of elderflower.
We have some underway!! It's going well so far! ♥
We till our shed cleanings right into the annual garden space (clay) off season and the soil is rich and ready to grow in season. In our food forest we put down mulch for years which broke down surprisingly well. The key with getting clay ready to grow in the forested garden is compost tea. Had an organic growing specialist tell me that it caused the horizontally stratified clay soil to become more vertical, changing the nature of the soil. I made the tea a couple of years but found a shortcut. I cart the somewhat aged shed cleanings over directly and place around the plants. The rains make continual compost tea. Everything grows very well. Fewer pests, too.
We too have had so much rain in Northern KY. My garden is mush right now.🙁 I have been waiting for two weeks to get the rest of my starts in. On a positive note, everything in my greenstalks is doing wonderful. 😆
Your encouraging attitude is so inviting! I started watching because of your informational goat videos, but this spring I have been loving these garden tours. I have learned so much from your videos. Thank you for continuing to include us in your day to day!
I'm so glad the channel has been helpful and inspiring! Thanks so much for being here ❤️
Everything looks amazing! I’ve been taking my garlic scapes and sautéing them with my early peas in butter for a side dish! So yummy ✌️🤍
That sounds so good! Ours have been joining the asparagus in the frying pan!
@@SageandStoneHomestead I tend to eat most of my asparagus before I leave the garden! 🤦♀️🤣
🥰🌻🐛🌿💚
im in missouri and i lost 3 heirloom tomatoes due to the rains in missouri
I'm so sorry!! It's raining again today!
Love starting my mornings with your videos!
Thanks. I love the way you pick all the greens. Get you a rodent eating cat. ❤❤❤
We had two, one got hit by a car and the other one died in the neighbor's yard. We are guessing she got into a poisoned mouse/rat. Even if we didn't poison the neighbors always will (they have to and I get it) and their beautiful barn is very close to our property. It's just not safe for a cat outdoors here.
"North Texas vegetable gardening and cooking" youtuber just showed a video where she explains all about what happens and how to rectify too much water. Her videos are not quite as "entertaining " as yours, but I still watch her and enjoy learning from all y'all!!❤❤❤
thank you I will look that up!!
Oh my goodness everything is so beautiful!! I’ve tried so many times to grow prickly pear!! I can’t get them to germinate 😢 but I have more seeds and will try again. Would you be willing to sell a pad from your plants? Had to ask lol I enjoy your videos so much. Thank you!!
Yes! Send me an email!! Sageandstonehomestead@gmail.com The SantaRita Pricklypear I have is healthier, it's the second one shown in the video.
@@SageandStoneHomestead I tried to send the email. It wouldn’t let me send it from my gmail account but I believe it did send from my iCloud account so please check your spam folder to see if you got it
@@TracyLynn-Mike no I have no new email! You can try messaging on instagram?
It’s real bad here in Texas yesterday we almost had like hurricane wins that did a lot of damage plus we had that flooding two weeks prior and today is just been raining raining rainy first it was slow now it’s got a lot of thunder and lightning behind it. I know the plans gonna be good for it’s just sometimes it could be too much.🌱⚡️☔️⚡️☔️ 5-17-24Friday
Many hugs!! Hang in there, that's rough!! ♥
Is it only green peppers 🫑 not hot peppers 🌶️?
We didn't plant many hot peppers this year at all, I wonder if most would even consider jalapeno hot! (I do!)
I just researched for my self, that peppermint oil can rid the vermin, as they don't like the scent, so when it's dry try putting some around the strawberry bed. That's what I'm doing but in and around the house as they have found a way in,
We have tried that in the walls of our house and it didn't work!
Beautiful gardens. Thanks for taking us along. The walking onions are prolific no matter what you do, or how you transplant them!
GOOD! ♥
Top of the mornin to you Beautiful Lady. It is nice to see the kids' garden finally done. Hopefully they get as much enjoyment as you do out of seeing all your hard work come to fruition. ❤❤❤ lots of love from our house to yours.
Our youngest goes out there first thing every morning to check on the plants ! ❤️
Loving your garden tours and your darling goats. It’s just getting to planting time for me in my area. Moving an entire garden to a different area and going to be planting mostly in raised beds. If it would stop raining for a few days I could get all of my plants and flowers out of my greenhouse. Fingers crossed I get my potatoes and onions into there new raised beds this weekend. Have a great weekend and thank you for your encouragement in growing new and different things.
You have a great weekend as well! ❤️
I dry the elderberry flowers for tea. Very good tea in the winter :) Im harvesting spruce tips now for saft :)
Amazing!! I made some cordial and it is so good!
I was thinking...you might want to plant some sunflowers on the lane they will help break up the clay.
I need to put su flowers somewhere! The lane is a great idea because I can tether them to the trellis if needed
Where did you get your blueberry plants?? I believe I heard you say they’re in their first year on your homestead and they seem so much bigger than any I’ve seen in stores and online!
These are from Fast Growing Trees online and are legacy blueberries!
It's the GREAT PUMPKIN Charlie Brown.
YES hopefully getting those seeds planted this weekend. No giant pumpkins really, but maybe some 40 lbs!
Crazy my 1st video I watched of yours was y'all in a Storm shelter .
We do still use that from time to time!
I NEED THAT SHIRT❤❤❤❤
I've been testing it out to see how well they wear!! I may do a preorder on them soon, they hold up well so far.
Babe, build a swale that will divert the water around the hoop house.
We are looking into it! :) Would be the best plan overall. Usually it's a non-issue and the rain coming in is actually welcome because the plants that had been planted in the ground were getting the benefits of rain water, but this much is definitely not good!
I love the raised beds in the greenhouse so much!
Me too!! Thanks!
Topping off
You can top off or not top off most peppers from what I understand. It's all a matter of preference :)
❤❤❤🕊️
What size are the raised beds in the middle of the greenhouse?
The two closest to the doors are the "Short medium" by Birdies and set up in the 2'x7' configuration, the ones in the very center are the "Short Large" Birdies Beds and set up as 2'x10'
❤❤❤
Nice bok choi! We have had so much rain and clouds here as well. I have put screens on my seeds so they don’t wash away…spinach, chard, lettuce….i just love your tours…sorry about your lettuce…..
Enjoy the weekendM
You have a nice weekend as well! That's smart to protect the seeds with screen!
I always keep old window screens to do this…keep them elevated slightly with boards or whatever…and after germination and the seedlings can support weather, I will remove them…if we are getting any serious rain I will put them back on…
Heather, is it possible to sandbag the perimeter of the greenhouse to allow the water to just flow around it?
That's a great idea!!
@@SageandStoneHomestead Not positive if it would work, but certainly would be worth a shot❣️
Omg. You have a flood in your greenhouse! At least you dont have to water :D Mine is completely dry and i have to water every day :)
It's great when it doesn't happen every other day, lol!! ♥
The wind snapped my peas
So Sorry!
It's OK I have a back up
I love bee balm tea!
I freeze dried some flowers last year and forgot about it! I will do it again this year and have lots, but this time I need to store them on the shelf instead of a cabinet!
Yes you will have to do that! I planted some Lemon balm this year so I will see how that turns out.
My sweet alyssium seedlings dont like being outside in the sun they seem to die on me. @sageandstone
Sun and wind are their enemy for sure while they are trying yo get going. When these were germinating I was watering twice a day.
@sageandstone mine are still in the seedling 72 cell tray, should I try planting them out or leave them?
