THANKS FOR WATCHING!
I just love watching Danny on the Cub.
Puts a smile on my face each time.
Love the cub! It hurt me to see my dad's knees go out and he couldn't get on his John Deere 730 diesel. So we pulled him up on it so he could run it for the last time.
When I 'm on my knees planting, I am praying for the Blessing of an abundant harvest and good health! Great video! God's Blessings to you and Mrs. Wanda and an abundant harvest and good health!!!
The Blessing is the result of listening to and obeying God.
Makes you feel good to be able to SEE the beginning of a garden, right before your own eyes😊
One thing I like about your channel is that you are about two weeks ahead of me in your planting. I was tell wife last night " Im gonna be putting potateos in the ground by the end of Febuary.
Love this!!! Please show everything you plant and the fertilizers and care for each crop. I learned so much in this video!!!❤
Nice!
So glad yall are bouncing back let alone getting in a planting!
Danny, have you thought about making a few of those life size silhouettes painted a bright orange our whatever color and attaching several items hanging off of it to give the appearance of movement and sounds like wind chimes. I hope you can understand what I'm trying to describe. If not, I can draw it out and email it to you.
I actually made a scarecrow and hung old aluminum pie plates and a wind chimes from it's arms and it worked pretty well for us. I didn't even have rabbits eating my lettuces. No deer, rabbits or raccoons. I need to make a new one this year. I'm thinking of even getting the solar screech owl that lights up but I don't want to put too much $$ in it.
We just had an overnight snow. Probably around 6". We were being spoiled with unseasonably warm weather for January & February in Pennsylvania. Sometimes I make really high quality low tunnels and start planting in March. This year I can't get motivated for that and I'm just gonna wait for May and our last frost date. That is around May 10th. We have about a 50/50 chance of a rogue frost coming outta nowhere in late April, early May. I do live through the southern growers I'm subscribed to during our cold months lol. I guess there are some good, and some challenging things about where we have all ended up living.
That Cub is such a huge time saver for y'all. Admire the soil at pecan grove. Ours here has turned into glue again with all the rain. Thank you for sharing and can't wait to get our potato's in the ground. Wishing y'all a blessed day.
Love how nice that tiller works the soil. Love the Cub too!! ❤ All the best with keeping the deer away.
Central Texas. I just put my potatoes in the ground last week. Having a cool spell today, then warmer weather coming in already! Not enough hours in the day to get everything done!
I have a problem my cat will eat my seed s
Good to see you Al I learned things
Our potatoes from the nursery wont even be available until March, here in zone 9, far north California.
Good morning and good to see you guys starting to plant something this year!
How refreshing to see you planting. 🌱
My granddad had a cub. I would ride on the back five miles to Hackleburg AL.
Farmall's will last forever if you maintain them. Excellent tractors.
Maybe setup a couple crops you KNOW the deer love to eat over on the side of the wood line in hopes they'll eat that, and leave the majority of your in the pasture field crop alone. Or, entice them on a different side of the property altogether.
This makes me itchy to get started but way too early for us. We have about 8 inches of snow and it's still coming down. 😊☃️💝
Awesome 👍
Watching y'all plant is making me antsy to plant. I've been getting beds ready and starting some seeds indoors. However, I'm ready for green in my beds. 😊
That Cub has far more capability. You have the forward attachment for a fertilizer hopper. Add some hillers as your front cultivators and two rear sweeps and you can run 12-18” high rows. That rear middle buster comes in good at harvest.
Our videos show me using several attachments for the cub over the last few years.
Hello guys from East Texas..Going to be planning our potatoes this week.
Watch Danny plant his Danny corn very interesting video learned a lot
Fancy tractor ❤ I loooove old tractors. My grandpa used to have one and an old army jeep. ❤❤❤❤❤
Its good to see the old Farmall doing a good days work 👍👍👍👍👍👍
try tulle -- tons of small holes let air in and out -- most critters do not like messing with it -- robbie of robbie and gary gardening easy has a link on her channel where you can buy it real cheap -- really works for keeping out most critters!!! you might want to give it a try !!! --- they have deer around also!!
Reference the wire worm problem. The Canadian agricultural department suggests buckwheat to help control them. What I have is to plant the buckwheat, let grow till it just starts to flower. Chop it up and till into the soil. It has also been suggested to use mustard as a cover crop. It also been suggested to plant potatoes following beans.
I never had a wire worm problem, until I tried one year of notill gardening. This past fall I tilled in many layers of leaves and then plowed the garden with a regular plow. I hope this along with the below zero weather this winter is going to help.
Good day to the both of y'all ❤
Danny, I was today old When I learned this. This is why people need to be Watching your videos.
What do you mean, "today old"?
I have used plastic grocery bags, balloons, Christmas tree garland and icicles, and foil pie tins to deter deer. It helps.
I may have said this before because I know I’ve thought it, but Danny you drive better backwards than I do forwards!😂
That's funny. Interesting thing is I use to drag race backwards.
Why am I not surprised!!
So exciting for the both of you!!! Am sitting here in Rhode Island 32 degrees with 6" of snow on the ground.. I am deeply enjoying seeing someone gardening in a tee shirt! Thanks for sharing!
God bless it God the Garden and give Danny and Wanda strength
To keep the deer away, I bought some of those wind whirls, the kids toys, from the dollar store and put them in my garden one year. The wind blew them apart. 😢
I like that cub tractor to Mr Danny. Good to see you working it again
Danny I planted my potatoes yesterday. Thanks for this video God bless y’all
We love watching your channel Danny, and we pray that y'all stay healthy and sassy this year 🙏🙏🇺🇸👍 P. S. : Like your deer 🦌 tape idea Miss Wanda 👌
Danny, do what we did years ago. We planted Timothy Hay, Alfalfa and oats, just for the deer. They left everything else pretty much alone. Thanks for the video, Jon
If the rain & my health allow, I'm hoping to plant peas & potatoes this weekend in NC 7b/8a.
Pecan Grove is coming along great. Can't wait to see your corn go in.
The deer are gonna enjoy mowing those peas down.... need some kind of fence
Not if I can help it.
Everyone wants to see the cub in action and there it is. Waahooo!
That’s what I’m doing eating more venison! Taste great!!!
Add a pole (bamboo like) to each corner of the cattle panel that extends 2 feet higher place an empty bottle on top of the pole run your orange streamer from pole to pole. The wind will rattle the bottle and deer cannot judge the height. If needed add a pole every 4 feet. I use the green plastic coated poles.
Looking good Danny I'm chomping at the bit to start planting still got really muddy ground here in Kentucky waiting to get 3 inches of snow tomorrow night
Fun watching you on that tractor,. Put the deer in that big kennel. Problem solved.
Great tip on the pea. Great tips on all of it, but I sure love the peas.
Try a wide bed and a fava bean pea mix as they self support each other
Good morning it's good to see you this morning❤
Sounds like time to put your porch time shack to good use and stock the freezer this year.
❤
Very nice!
This will be an interesting year! Good luck!
Thank you for the tip on sweet pea seeds 😘. You got it going on 😅.
Try the fingerlings in your Greenstalk. I grew reds and whites on my Greenstalks last year and they did pretty good. I might get some fingerlings and try those this year
I had always wondered why peas were different colors & wrinkled or smooth.
Makes me itch even more to get in the dirt.
🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️
Could you plant some along the inside of the greens fence and let them climb the fence ........ people around Clayton wouldn't know what to think if I didn't have dirty knees, they know I'm a garden guy ☺️
How well did the Billy’s bone sauce work for y’all? I’d be willing to contribute a jar or so, and I saw a melon that y’all might like to try.
It usually works very well. But these deer are like pets they don't even stay away from human urine.
Good video today
Whew! I was wondering if the potatoes I put in would grow. They looked like yours; so there is hope!
. My rows are only five feet, but a little crop is better than none, right? I palanted some mustard greens above the rows to get an extra quick crop in the space and maybe keep nematodes away.
My peas are a few feet high. I started them last year. Waiting to see flowers. Again, I just have a five foot row. But I can get a few meals of fresh peas. The plants typically produce a month before mildew takes them out. I'm in Calif low desert, and we had a lot of rain the last few months, so I'm surprised how healthy they look.
Some is better than none.
5-inch snow here in Pennsylvania
Those are about the best looking seed potatoes I’ve seen.
Brother time will tell.
Danny, how deep do you till for the potatoes? A few freezing nights coming up this week---at what low temps can I plant potatoes? Thanks for the informative video--loved the bit about wrinkly peas.
I till around 6 inches deep here in the south. As long as the ground doesn't freeze you can plant.
Thank you for the video little jealous that you're working in the garden from Ohio
I was wondering about the color and wrinkles of the peas while looking at my seed I saved fromlast season thanks that was very interesting
It's time to grow food.
Danny I list my ground every year and leave it threw the winter months helps to let it air out and frost and cold on the ground to freeze and thaw here in Oklahoma.
I do to if it's flat ground.
Hopefully your deer habitat will help keep the stress off your gardens.
One day, there wont be granules of fertilizer to buy, we will need to source it from our own homestead. Why not start now, Danny?
I do I just don't have enough at this time for all we grow.
Was this last week? It was warm here in Ga too. It rained all day yesterday and is cold and windy today. I’m planting my English peas and string beans this week. Waiting until the 26 th on the waning moon to drop potatoes in the ground. I need to put up some fencing too but mine is to keep the chickens out of the garden.
It was Saturday
Mr. Danny, how deep should I plant my potatoes? I was told to plant them 10 inches apart and 8 inches deep is that correct?
Thank you God bless
The new ground will make you a great garden. The soil bacteria and fungi are at a very healthy level and this makes all the difference. That's been my experience. That spot should produce well for you. In a few years after regular cultivation and fertilizers the bacteria & fungi will be mostly dead. And it'll be time for a new spot. I wish there was some type of gardening process that grows better soil and doesn't deplete it.
We amend it every year just for that reason
Danny, I noticed you didn’t cut the eyes out of the potatoes. Some UA-camrs say we’re supposed to do that and only have one eye. But it looks like you plant the whole potato. Is that because these are smaller potatoes?
I normally chit mine but these are small so I just did them whole.
Where do you purchase the 8-24-24 fertilizer? Looking for it here in the pacific NW, and I get that "deer in the headlight look ".
From my local feed store.
Good morning
Mornin
Hello Mr Danny and this is Wanda there is a stupid question I am about to ask plant Beats in febuary
Yes if you can protect them from frost.
How far apart do you put the potatoes and what type of fertilizer. Thanks jim80
Red potatoes are 12 inches apart. French fingerlings are 6 inches apart. I used 8-24-24 fertilizer
Electric fence will keep them out
Can you tell me what fertilize you put on your potatoes and how deep you planted them? Thank you. We always plant potatoes on February 14th.
8-24-24 fertilizer and plant them 6 inches deep.
@@pecangrovems Thank you so much.
I bought sum solar electric poultry fence ..
I’m not sure if that would work or not … I think it’s 42 or 48” high…they say if the fence is close together they won’t jump it … i haven’t tried it yet😊
Why not put that broth stuff( the name I can't remember @ this time) around your peas and sweet potatoes? It seemed to work @ at the Homestead...it's seems easy just ranging out the rags...
Ms Wanda might find it better to use a blue ribbon instead of pink . The smart people that study deer say they see blue colors better than the others.
🙏🙏🙏🙂♥️🕊👍 Do you listen to Mike from Around The World Do you listen to Mike from Around The World?? Yes a lot like you he speaks the same message
I know who he is.
Are there quick growing cabbage that I can start now? I didn't get the Tropic Giant started last Fall. They're massive giants, but take longer to grow. I need to get them harvested in May or June.
The Dutch cabbage is pretty fast.
Danny, what is your approximate spacing for the seed potatoes? I'm fortunate to have a farm supply store that brings in many veg seeds in bulk so I can buy a few or a handful.
12 inches on the red potatoes and 6 inches on the French fingerlings.
I'm in northern MC. My potatoes have big sprouts however, I know there's gonna be real cold weather in February. So not know what to do. Suggestions???
They will be okay to wait. When you plant them just cut the sprouts back.
What about using toole fabric?🤔
Yes it will work.
Mr. King, I'm going to have to tell my husband the more wrinkly I get the sweeter I'll be.😂
Now there you go.
CAN YOU SHOW US HOW YOU TILL AND PLANT WITHOUT POWER EQUIPMENT FOR THE POOR PEOPLE WHO CANT AFFORD ???????
Deep South Homestead has gardening playlist that shows many ways to plant. Check it out.
Danny I got wire worms in my potatoes I planted a couple of years ago and gave up.Whst can I do to get rid of them?Theres no grass there anymore.Thanks
I would try again and see if they've left.
@@pecangrovems Thanks Danny
I kick myself every day for letting my brother take my great uncles cub and all implements.
You don’t need a tractor with no till garden, just compost and mulch
Each person’s situation is different. Also the tractor was used all year around. The belly mower most of the year and the front blade for pushing snow and dirt to fix the lanes.
@gerano till doesn't work in our extreme heat
What zone are you in?
They changed us from 8 to 9. Go figure.
Danny,
Gregor Mendel, the monk, the father of genetics, proved wrinkled seed, seed color, and other traits in English peas are “independently assorted”. He proved separate genes controlled those traits. You can not determine sweetness of peas from wrinkles or seed color. This is taught in all genetics 101 classes. Please don’t talk about things you don’t know anything about. Even though it appears to be a certain way, that is small sample effect and not true to genetics.
I've done this for over 30 years and tested it it has worked every time. I trust what I do not what others say is the truth.
