Awww thank you so much! We started our gardening journey together a few years ago and it’s been really fun gardening and learning with one another. This has taught us the importance of passing knowledge on to the next generation, and we’re glad to have the opportunity to share that with others as well! Have a great gardening year also!!!
I’m wondering if you’ll make a recipe video for the squash casserole! I’d watch that one in a heartbeat. I really enjoyed your energy. I love that you both start dancing in excitement as I do that when I think of growing plants 😊
We’ll have to ask Turnip Green Queen (aka my grandmother) for the recipe LOL!! And we’re glad you can relate! Sometimes it’s hard to contain the excitement in the garden 😂😊!!!
You all sound like me when it comes to what you plant. Good luck with your garden this year. I will be following right along. I’m going to start my peppers first this year. They take a long time to start producing if you plant them with the tomatoes.
Hi Murl! We’ll be starting our peppers in February this year and may do tomatoes towards the end of February or early March since they grow fairly quickly. We hope you have an abundant garden this year!!
We use organic blood meal, bone meal, and worm castings. For liquid fertilizers, we use Neptune’s Harvest Organic Fish and Seaweed Kelp. This year, we intend on incorporating some homemade fertilizers like compost tea to the garden as well! We hope your winter sowing goes really well!!! ❤️
Do you have a plan to deal with various squash bugs that always show up to destroy my squash before I even get fruit. I’ve given up on every type of squash that gets destroyed by them. Now I’m trying trumpetta squash. Fingers crossed.
We grew Trumpetta/Tromboncino squash on a vertical trellis before and we got lots of fruit before the squash borers came. Unfortunately, the bugs are pretty inevitable in organic gardens - we spray them off with the water hose, and planting them in a different spot may help a bit. We’ve found that timing is key with squash; so in 2023 we put out our transplants immediately after our last frost, and we directly sowed them last year after the last frost. We got great production from our squash (tromboncino, zapallito, and especially from the patty pan) before the bugs came. Hopefully you’ll get some fruit this year!!!
Absolutely! We typically sow them indoors in seed starting mix or a soil-less mixture at the proper seed starting depth (which depends on the seed packet info). Like other seeds, we keep them moist using a spray bottle, cover the seed starting tray/pot with Saran Wrap or a heat dome, and keep them warm with a heat mat to speed up the germination process. If you don’t have a heat mat, the heat from your grow lights or indirect sun may help. You can also try soaking the seeds in water overnight or using the “Paper Towel Method” to speed up germination. We’ve also sown them directly outdoors in our zone (Zone 7b TN), and they germinated whenever they were ready! We hope this helps!!!
Besides the insect pests you deal with, so you have issues with animal pests? Such as deer, raccoons, rabbits, squirrels, groundhogs and anything else.
Not really. Our garden is fenced in, so we don’t have any issues with any larger animals (we also don’t have deer in that area). We do have moles/voles, but they haven’t damaged the roots of our crops. We also have squirrels, but they don’t seem to bother with any of our plants either. Now, our BIGGEST animal issue is the birds. They keep flying off with our berries lol, so we’re going to take more precautions this year.
@@WokeRemnantGardening Glad I don’t have to deal with moles/voles in my area (Central Ohio), the above mentioned critters is enough of a headache. Agree with the birds eating the berries, but as long as they leave my tomatoes alone, I’ll ‘share’ the berries. 😂

What fertilizers do you ladies use? I am starting to winter sow some seeds this month to get a head start on spring ❤

@ I may have to do that this year. Working on my garden plan right now. I just want squash!
LOL We definitely get that - we LOVE squash too!
