Runner beans - saved last year's seeds and now have loads of plants. And on and on it goes. Wonderful 🌿
PERFECT Sharon! Beans are another great one!
I’m loving these garden quickies! They’re super informative and interesting little reminders to stop and smell the roses (or fruit), and grow something wonderful. They really do make my day. Thanks!!
Thanks Vanessa! Appreciate the kind words! 🙂
Radish is another fun, easy, abundant one to harvest seed from.
Definitely! And a fast-grower too!
My neighbor has his own backyard garden, and for whatever reason I would sometimes see corn and tomato vines growing underneath my bushes. I would usually just let them grow and so I could get fresh corn and tomatoes
Waste not want not! 🙂
_Adds green onions to my list of plants to try growing_
Yesssssssssssss........!
I have just let a plant of bok choi go to seed. It does not take very long to seed, produces so many seeds, and the bees etc love it. And it looks pretty too.
Thanks, that's one I have to try! We eat it all the time in stir frys! 🙂
Really love quick info. Thanks 😊
Thanks Stacy, I'll keep 'em coming!
plants FTW!
Exactly!!
I would add spaghetti squash. Take one of the squashes that stored the longest and save the seeds from that one! So easy!
Great idea Lorie!
*And don't forget to save seeds for flowers*....you need pollinators as much as they need your flowering plants. Set out some water, changing it every couple days, & you'll deter birds from pecking your tomatoes searching for a drink. Has anyone ever seen with their own eyes a *Hummingbird Moth?* I just saw a video from another underappreciated channel & now this magical creature's on my *bug sighting bucket list.* Cheers, ~ Covah......I'll add its link in comments.

thanks Jeff
Cheers David, hope all is well. :-)
I really love this channel well done 💖
Thanks Kerri! :-)
This was great🔥thanks bro🙌🏻🙌🏻💯
Pepers are super easy. I accidentally left a fruit outside where it dried out. The seeds ended up becoming the best for resowing. So it was nice to know I don't have to left the fruit on the plant to dry. Just be careful with wildlife
Perfect!
Seed saving information is what brought me here at the start. Love this channel!
Right on Roy, glad to have you! 🙂
Thank you 👍
:-)
Thanks so much!
Cheers K. P., thanks for watching! 🙂
Thanks for this - something I want to do more of although it seems complex in smaller spaces with some things that cross-pollinate easily. Nice to know I can try the lettuce that’s bolted, I didn’t read yet they are mostly self-pollinating.
Oh I'm craving that strawberry
I never taste that yet.im 57 already.
I'm struggling with green onions even growing, let alone getting to the point where I can save seeds! LOL But I'm definitely saving seeds from the rest this year. It'll be the first time I save seeds from my lettuce but it does look super easy.
How can you tell if the seeds are still there? I keep getting blue flowers, and then I'm confused doesn't look like anything is there. Any tips?
Hey dude! I was wondering when should I start preparing transplants for autumn/winter gardening? Is now a good time and also which crops can I grow? 😛Thanks! 😄
That all depends on where you live. The easiest way to know is to figure out the length of crop, seed to harvest. Find out your first fall frost day, add a week or so, then work backwards. That's the day you start your fall crops. :-)
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms I'm from Bulgaria 😀 Which I believe is equivalent to Central Ohio in the USA. Thanks for the info! :)
@@socloseagain4298 no problem! Just find out that first frost day in the fall, then work backwards about 60 to 80 days for most crops...
What is what l heard walking onion and where can l buy it. Ty for your important tips l appreciate very much
I usually find Walking Onions for sale at my local plant nurseries Cherry. :-)
Please make a video of strawberries from seeds. Do they need to be freeze
Definitely plan on it. It'll be a multi-year undertaking, but its in the works for sure.
And I often are leave the seeds in there too long, I guess. How do you know when to say when?‘s like for the onion you said when it falls over; are there any other telltale signs of the best mature time to pick to seed?
It all depends on the plants. For green onions, I definitely don't wait for it to fall over. Once those seed heads dry, if they fall over, the seeds go EVERYWHERE!
Nice video. How long does those cos romaine take to sprout for you? (im growing them...)
I have a question. I have read that if you leave some things on the plant until they are over ripe, the plant will think it is done for the season and will begin to die. Is this true?
While picking fruit often begets more flowering and more fruit, leaving fruit on doesn't really give plants the signal to stop. Temperature, moisture, photoperiod, light intensity, and circadian rhythm are the main clues.
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms Thanks so much! I have been searching for an answer to that for weeks!
I'm having a problem with some seeds. The arugula, collared and brussel sprouts seeds have been infected with some type of bug or disease. They go dark and insides are moldy looking a greyblack color. Any suggestions ?
❤
:-)
how about a quickie about what not to plant next year in a spot where a certain crop is this year. I am already thinking about next year but understand certain crops should not be planted in a spot that has certain crops this year. 👣👣👣👣👣👣🍉🥕🍆🍓🫐🌶🥒🥬🥦🧄🧅😊🤣👀
Definitely. There's not many....especially with a a whole fall and winter in between, but there are a couple...
