    The best method I've found for squash bugs is a pump up sprayer with water and a tiny bit of dawn dish soap. Make sure the nozzle is on mist so that it sprays soap suds. Spray the squash bugs with suds and they usually die within a minute.

    Marigold come in 2 varieties. Your cut flower type is the African marigold that get 3-4 ft tall and are supposed to be supported. The other kind is dwarf marigolds that are more of a ground cover. I grew the African last year and I was not expecting them to be so huge so I looked into it 😂
    The tall ones work better for pest reduction though on tomatoes and peppers because they are VERY fragrant

    About the wheat harvest: I would try using a flail to thresh the wheat (on a plastic tarp), after that you will need to wind sift a couple time because of the awns.
    I have done this once and it worked very well. (Also wear long cloth, because the awns will make everything itchy otherwise.)

    Not seen the bouquet dill before. It looks much more productive/bushy for harvesting to dry. Is it less likely than the tall variety to go to seed? And is the seed good for harvesting too? How was your garlic harvest?

    One of the things that makes it harder for me is that, when I see a plant not doing well, I don't think "That plant needs fertilizer". I think "There's something lacking/wrong in the soil. It needs amendments (usually compost)".
    I've never used fertilizer and am trying to grow some tender perennials in pots. Seems they need water soluble fertilizer.
    I've been considering making compost tea for some garden plants that is always a struggle for me.

    I would love a video about your garlic, if possible. I live outside Chicago and I just harvested Music garlic. I cured it outdoors for a 10 days then trimmed the stalks, the roots, and put them in a mesh bag for storage. It didn't look like you trimmed your stalks or roots, in this video. Did you end up doing that? Also, I brought the bulbs into the basement but they smelled strongly of garlic so I moved it outside to my garage. Will the garlic smell dissipate with time? Since hardneck doesn't store long, I usually freeze some whole cloves that I use when making stock in the winter. Thanks for your videos. I learn a lot from you! :)

    Love, love your gardens! You honestly make it look so easy, but I know there is tons of hard work that goes into it, though. Do you battle blight on your tomatoes? Does the Ultra help with any of that? Or is growing inside a tunnel the key? I’m interested in trying Ultra, I have raised beds and have a hard time caging my indeterminate tomatoes, b/c they get so big, I need a better system, once blight hits one tomato you know the rest, ugh! I am in E TN zone 7a. Thanks for any suggestions.

    • @TheSeasonalHomestead
      @TheSeasonalHomestead  2 дні тому

      We do get blight sometimes. It's more common for us at the end of the season when the plants are past their prime and tired. The best thing for blight is starting with healthy plants and there are a number of things that go into that-- Having good airflow, keeping soil from splashing on the leaves, drier conditions like in the tunnel, and being very consistent about applying a good fertilizer.
      Yes, Ultra definitely helps, especially when the plants are under stressful conditions. I also add other things too, you can check out some more information about fertilizers I use for tomatoes here www.theseasonalhomestead.com/the-best-fertilizer-for-tomato-plants/ I also clip off any lower leaves that look like they are catching something. Dip the tool in a little alcohol in between cuts so you don't spread any disease.

      Yes! I had a cover crop of peas and oats in my high tunnel this spring where the peppers currently are now.

    So I'm growing holy basil this year, first time, and why do the flowers smell like butt?!?!? So gross lol. I made my daughter and husband smell it and they while mad at me for making them smell it, both also said it smelled like butt, so it wasn't just me. The leaves smell good. Do you use this like regular basil? Beautiful garden btw, you all put a lot of hard work into it and should be very proud!

      It tastes like vomit to me. I grew it a couple of years ago, but couldn’t use it because of the disgusting taste. A lot of people use it for tea, but you have to use it in moderation because there are some side effects in higher doses.

      Ok I am glad I am not the only one that does not enjoy the smell of the flowers (though the bees seem to love it, lol). I am nervous now…I was going to try using it for tea.

      @@squashit339 Just don’t drink more than 3 cups of holy basil tea a day and you should be fine. But always research any herbal medicine because it can interact with certain medications.

    Add papalo to substitute for cilantro. I'll send you seeds if you like. Also huacatay- you can make Peruvian sauce to place over any dish.

      We freeze dry them mostly. But I also freeze some in oil, especially basil. We love pesto.
