      Hey there! That resembles a woolley worm ( Tiger moth caterpillar ) , but it doesn't have the color to it. I don't know why that is. ( I'll have to look into that) Perhaps it's a different kind of caterpillar. My grandmother used them to predict the coming winter. They are typically black on the ends and rusty brown in the middle. The more brown there is, the milder the winter will be. The more black there is, the more severe the winter will be.

    I 100% agree with the old timers with regard to the 3 sisters garden. In fact (and I live near Jamestown/Williamsburg area) I've done a lot of research on this method which was braught to our attention by the Native Tribes of this region... many of whom were "nomadic" with their camps based on long term weather patterns and game availability (unlike the plains tribes which followed the herds seasonally). I spoke with a (I believe Meherrin) tribes woman who stated that they plant the corn in rows of hills, each with fish heads at the center at the center, between the New Moon following the Flower Moon in April and the Planting Moon in early May. This is followed by the Green Corn Moon in early June and the corn should all be up. In early July the squash is seeded in the hills at the Tassel Moon. Beans go in the mounds at the Ripe Corn Moon. This makes a lot of sense when you concider they would plant beans as they harvest ears from the stalk. The following moon is the Fruit Moon (?) when they harvested the squash or melons and beans were harvested at the following 2 moons. Then the dry stalks were laid down and burned some years right in the area they grew. When I think about the pests that accumulate on squash and melons, the fertility of biochar, they cycles of beneficial insects... this system truly works with the natural cycles of this more northerly region (from fish availability to frost dates to pest cycles and soil fertility). The fact that named all the warm months moons with regard to the cycle of their corn crops really speaks to the importance of using the development of corn as a timer and support for their other crops... all of which also feed livestock. I'm sure that any unharvested corn that was perhaps to immature to harvest during their traditional moon harvest period was left on the stalks to mature and over ripen and were used dry as a deer plot in the autumn. It was only after years of failing to plant all these crops at the same time that I "asked the experts" and learned this method for my region. You're clearly much farther South than I am and so benefit from a slightly earlier application of these same principles. Thank you for explaining it to those caught trying to plant everything at once. God Bless. 💚🙏

    We did the 3 sisters method last year to see for our ohio area. In our experience it was awesome. We got full ears of corn. The best bean harvest we ever had considering the year before I had such a bad bean harvest I had to can from other peoples gardens. The sqaush was a great harvest as well. I do believe that the beans helped the corn. They also planted fish under the corn. We planted everything the same time. We didn't feed anything or use anything on the plants bc we wanted to see What everything did. It was one of our best harvest so much so we are doing it again this year.😉 my great grandparents were full blooded Sioux Indians. The groups moved around so much that they used different spots to garden from year to year. The Indians moved around the land, I don't think they would worry about nitrogen for the next year in that same spot so I do believe that nitrogen is released to the corn that year..but that's my experience. I guess a soil test would show that too if we really wanted to know.
    Thanks for your knowledge as well. Love ya both.

    Your discussion about your young bull reminded me of my years breeding horses. It was amazing to me how many characteristics turned out to be inherited! Genetics is a fascinating study - there were bloodlines that were popular but linked to undesirable characteristics - one stallion sired many show winners, but he also sired a high number of offspring with a club foot. And recessive genetics could hide serious defects; the industry finally advanced to the point that part of the registration process includes a DNA test, and they could identify carriers of a recessive gene that's lethal - foals that had the defective gene from both parents would become sick and die, usually within six months, because their immune system was virtually nonexistent. And color genetics is almost a field in itself!

    • @tiffles699
      @tiffles699 Рік тому +1

      There's some truth in the simultaneous 3 sisters. Beans/peas have nitrogen nodules which bacteria convert nitrogen into a soil nitrogen, then there's fungal network. So if your soil is healthy and has the fungal network, then nitrogen created in the nodules would be transferred elsewhere. When dealing with a no-till or low till situation, then simultaneous works, otherwise conventional would be more beneficial of cyclical.
      I do try to do a bean every year in every bed though.

      I guess your winters are colder and kills out the stink bugs? I'm in the south near the TX OK border and just started planting myself. Actually I started transplanting 150 tomatoes and 100 pepper plants that I started indoors from seeds a couple of months ago. We've had so much rain that my tractor couldn't till up my garden a month ago, so I'm starting my garden with you northerners. I've got to hurry up, because in mid July it gets so hot that alot of the plants can't survive. I assume you have fairly mild summers where you live?

    ❤ welcher here in South Texas we plant the beans the corn and the Squash at the same time.. And they all do very well together very well and it worked just fine and then outside the cornfield Wheels plant extra squash any kind of squash zucchini you name the squash with Planet you name the male flowers we pick them we eat them not right away after they have already given the vegetable because after that they start giving vegetables and then the vine starts to grow more and that's when the tips come off the beans are delicious and we plant either pinto beans red beans white beans kidney beans you name it we plant it except for the green beans we plant on a string or let them Vine anyway they want. But I suppose that everybody has their own way of doing things we do seems to more Highway and we call it in Spanish milty's what you have there and standing close by is called a milpa Garden. And people that have a lot of property will let another neighbor borrow a little piece ....where they can have their own garden... edit shots to go and most people get together and that's when they call it Las Milpas.

    Good morning from Queensland Australia, really love watching your channel, full of very helpful knowledge, keep up the great work. I heard a tip from a farmer who has Jersey cows and he never buys a cow if you can see the whites of there eyes, they can be more challenging, I thought that was interesting, GOD BLESS

    Watch out for Hairy Puss caterpillars they are very painful. I loved the sqash horn!!! I have planted 3 sisters, am using JADAM sprays on the dirt right around the plant for now, and just started making and planting some electroculture antennas. Next week I will make Jadam pest repellent tea from store bought Chilli powder, garlic powder, and mint tea. The instructions say only do one or two plants, then wait a few days after you spray the leaves. So far I have only killed one plant, it was a four inch high Peron tomato. I have 2 others, but they are out of seeds now.

    The squash horn was a amazing thing for kids and adults alike! I really don't understand why you pick everything before it's mature! I get you don't like seeds getting very big but when you pick before they are mature they have a very green flavor to them and can be bitter!

    • @JamesWayne-kn1yg
      @JamesWayne-kn1yg Рік тому +1

      Picking before they are mature , will produce more fruit . Once the fruit is mature , it signals to the plant that reproduction has been accomplished , and the natural cycle is complete , it will the stop producing more fruit .

    • @DeepSouthHomestead
      @DeepSouthHomestead  Рік тому +3

      Older vegetables are tougher. Plus it means the plant will stop producing more veggies.

    So this is our first year at trying the three sisters. Might’ve messed that up by what you just said, but I took 30 cans of tuna that my husband had bought before he passed away (no one else in the house likes canned tuna in water. We will only eat it if it’s an oil. ) and put it in the middle of the bed planted corn on top of it, but then I did painted four more rows on the outside of that, put the beans in between the rows of corn and the blue Hubbard on the outside of the bed. It is a very large bed though this morning I got up at all the tuna had been dug up and spread all over the bed. some thing had a good feast last night. Probably gonna lose the middle row of corn but that’s OK. The only thing that I really needed was the blue Hubbards so those are on the outside edge. I don’t think that’s gonna be a problem and I planted green beans somewhere else and I had never grown corn, so I really wasn’t expecting much 😂

    What type squash was the green one you were harvesting just after the cucumbers and spaghetti squash? What a joy to watch a fellow gardener have such bounty.

    Mr. Danny you are one fun Pawpaw. Pecan Grove is beautiful. I completely understand about the cows. When I was a girl we had a magnificent Angus bull. However he never saw a fence that he didn't consider a challenge. He would break down wooden fence posts (they were old) and get into the neighbors registered Holstein herd. We had to sell him.

    ❤ the male blows of any kind of squash or edible and soups deep-fried you can dehydrate them and hold on to them for the following winter because you won't have anymore the tapes of the vines are also edible along with the flowers you put them in the same shoes they are very delicious I know I run my video show on UA-cam as well I have not done any video yet but I will be putting it up since I have seen your beautiful garden and you have such beautiful beautiful beautiful flowers and you harvest them early in the morning before the sun comes up thank you so much and God bless you❤😊
