- Day in the life vlog working outside, kids doing art, playing outside, eating dinner, etc. We’ve got a Japanese beetle problem we’re trying to solve! Help us figure out how to save our kiwi and grapes from these ravenous little critters. Then come pick and eat blueberries with us that are doing great!
Big👍 to Tilly for her work on the UK. I live on the South Coast of England in a County called Dorset. Blessings to the your Family🙏
Apologies for not spelling her name correctly. Should have put Talea I believe.
You're good! She goes by Talea or Tilly. You spelled both right! So cool you live in Dorset. I'd love to visit sometime. My oldest has been to England on a study abroad last fall and loved it. She showed me such pretty pictures. Picturesque rock walls, shady walking trails, the ocean. I wish I could go!
Loved this day in the life! That was a really cool camp they went to. Tilly learned so much! All the children are so bright and creative. You accomplished so much in one day. Blueberry patch and the farm look amazing. Well done! Val C ❤️🙏🏻
Summer blessings and beautiful blue berries.
i love your family.you live a simple life life.Bless you all!
Enjoy your videos- wonderful way for children to grow up!
Idea: ask at church for free old socks and nylons or towels or wash clothes etc or any netting people are wanting to be rid of and use these as containers to hang garlic?
How about getting some diatomaceous earth to sprinkle on them set up my rose bushes immensely from the Japanese beetle also took care of all the Box elders
You have to smash the garlic then put in spray bottle with water that's supposed to help you can also add some cayenne pepper to it
Hi, Try hanging your garlic in tulle fabric. It's very inexpensive. Cut it into circles,place the garlic in the center,gather the fabric and tie it closed. Hang it like you did with the plastic bags. Blessings.
That's a good idea!
You could recycle the onion bags from store bought onions
Catnip will repel them maybe you could grow it around them also chives and geraniums will paralyze them for 24 hours then you can pick them up hope it helps
Wow, interesting!
Your daughter plays the piano beautifully, and your son is a good artist.
It amazes me how loving and kind your children are you are the only family I know and I’m 61 years old that has ever had all the children to get along like that nobody’s ever rude to you or each other. You are blessed.
It's edited kids are kids .My daughters first two were just naturally nonviolent then when the third came and started hitting my daughter told her no we don't hit she cried for so long my grandson said alright just stop crying ! my granddaughter said haha I won I won ! ! My daughter said well kids are gonna be individual and this one is gonna make up for the first two
Lol
Talle did an exceptional job articulating her work!
The dish soap is why they’re not liking it possibly
Great job on the passport and crown.
Super cute camp activities!
Try spraying SE Vi N or N. EENM.
That should help.❤❤❤
Maybe puree garlic and put in spray bottle and spray the leaves
Enjoyed your video. One suggestion I have heard about the Japanese beetle trap is that you place the trap away from your crops to draw the beetles away from your crops instead of into your crops. We have hand picked Japanese beetles for many years now and Last year we had many less than in the past years. And have not had any yet this year. We also remove the grubs when we find them when digging. They heavy attack our grapes, fruit trees did not see many on kiwis that we have.
You're right. The trap was too close. I thought when they came to the kiwis they'd see the trap, but instead they were lured to the kiwis by the trap. Glad you haven't had any this year! We haven't had any this week so something is working!! I've never removed grubs so I need to do that. I've never thought of it. Thanks!
Hi Marcie! Thanks for replying to my email today! The grapes are looking great!
Love your family! Needed something new to watch. All great! You seem more like a Dr😊. A compliment! The Lord holding it all together.
Beautiful art work
Netting
I read if you grind cayenne peppers and garlic and add water and a little dish soap you can spray the plants and leaves and bugs will leave them alone
Sounds great! I'd definitely stay away with that combo. Haha. I'll give it a try.
You might consider selling blackberry plants from propagated 'runners'. Just another idea for a little extra income from things you already have on your farm. I have not known another family as industrious as yours! Complements! 💗
Hey, that's a good idea! That would be super easy. I wonder how I could get the word out. A nursery went out of business down our road last year so I'm hesitant to try selling any plants. But I'm happy to try.
@@singlemomonafarm I would put a note by your blueberry hill
The kids are so talented
Your videos are relaxing to watch wholesome and family oriented ❤
Thank you!
I have read to spray fruit trees with vinegar, and with a baking soda /vinegar mix or with diluted apple cider vinegar with crushed egg shells in it? God bless!
That sounds easy. We'll try it!
Try Captain Jack’s Dead Bug Brew. It is organic. You should try growing dill and cucuzi squash. The bugs don’t like the smell and the can grow intertwined with the kiwis.
A mesh bag might work better with the garlic. I would just weave a whole plant or two into the bush. If that is cudzu it can be eaten by animals. It has a high protein level.
We do have a lot of dill in our garden boxes. Maybe if it's closer to the kiwi?
Try to spray the plants with a garlic water. Maybe that will do the trick.
Warm blueberries in a covered dish in microwave for two minutes or so until they pop and add a tablespoon or two of syrup (depending upon quantities of blueberries) and use for pancake/waffle syrup.
Wonderful camp time,
Blessings dear people
Place the beetle trap away from the plants, you don't want them coming to the same area. Put it on the outskirts of your property. is your Blueberry Hill open to the locals to pick? If so, how would I go about getting the information or have you thought about selling them at the Farmers Market?
I don't have enough blueberries for a farmers market. Probably only 5 containers worth a day. If I went to a market I should probably bring 100. The markets around here are hard to get into. They have limited spots and they fill up quickly, to people who have been before. Hard for newcomers to get in. But some day I do want to try one and see what I can sell. So far it works to have people come pick themselves and every few days we pick for our freezer. I want enough for us to eat all winter and also to make jam with. But maybe when there aren't very many kids at home I'll have enough to sell at a market.
@@singlemomonafarm Town of Hillsville Farmers Market would welcome you. We are in need of Vendors and fruit is a big need
Beautiful Family ❤
Tye in a stocking let it hang around
Truly enjoying Your Family. I'm of the same religion as Your Family. Families can be together forever.
Strawberry 🍓 Moon 🌙
Netting , diamataceus earth.
Enjoyed so much. ❤
Those London paintings sounded cool.
What were those things I heard people driving? They sounded like minny tractors or something.
It's a gocart. Every time I started filming, they would drive by, haha. It's definitely a fun toy on the farm. It's great for all ages, even my 20 year old son! So someone is always driving it around.
Thank you for another great video😊
Kiwi frui is only meant to be. Grown in New Zealand they produce the best. Fruit coz of the weather
Beautiful Children , a couple of them seem to need speech therapy
Thank you. Yes, we're working on that.
Does it help you if we watch the commercials? 🤷♀️
Nice they go to camp.
Yes, they got to do one for 4 days and another for 3 days. Gave them a chance to step inside a real school and see what a school day is like since we're mostly homebodies. And gave me some extra time to write curriculum.
👍
im not a professional gardener but the garlic can you mince it and mix it with some kind of liquid and put in a spray bottle and spray the plants ? just an idea
put it it netting or old nylons or tights
Why would you give your chickens that soapy water...could be poisonous!
I hate them. The Japanese beetles.
Me too!
May we have your address to mail a card.?
Mum hung hers in pantyhose or maybe cheesecloth?
Great idea!
