    I'm in central Alabama, zone 7B. I have seedling growing for Late Nagasaki Cabbage, Cantaloupe, Crookneck Squash, and Zucchini. I have seeds for more zucchini, Hilton Cabbage, and Chicago Pickling cucumbers that I am waiting to sprout. My pole beans, New Zealand Spinach, Black Cherry, Sun Gold, and Sunrise Bumble Bee Tomatoes are producing fruit. My pole beans, peppers, and New Zealand Spinach are all producing well, but the peppers in my GreenStalk Tower are out producing the peppers in my raised bed. The soil temperature here is too high for Danvers to spout, so I have to wait for rain, or cooler weather to resow them. In a couple weeks, I will be sowing seeds for Komatsuna, shelling peas, Pak Choi, Golden Detroit Beets, and kohlrabi. In September, I will sow lettuce seeds, and winter tomatoes for my greenhouse.

I'm in Southern NH and I did a big makeover to my garden this year and invested in raised beds packed them full of plants. We got so much rain in the spring everything is so behind schedule or diseased. Starting fresh with a look towards fall veggies has me excited. I started all my brassicas about two weeks ago and they already need to be potted up. I plan to plant them out in early September.

    * I use Mel Bartholomew method and never deviated his advice, I have difficulty finding vermiculite, the perlite tends to float and not as useful. Can you still get vermiculite inspite of the warnings?
    * Do you have watering systems or just hose?
    * Here in North East we are in a rain pattern, I assume in NJ you are similar, what are your tips on watering and too much rain?
    * Sending many❤❤❤❤ to Tuck, he is so awesome!

I've been digging up potatoes today looking forward to planting something in its place for another bountiful harvest. Will amend it with compost although it's full of worm castings perhaps due to weeks of rain, perhaps due to the leaves covering the soil, perhaps due to the occasional rotting potatoe from all the rain. I need to dig the bed deeper so it drains better.

    One last thing I would like to say. Even in high 90's-100 degree heat and humidity that makes it feel like 190, my Zinnia's continue to just flower like there is no tomorrow. If anybody is curious, specific variety is Benary's Giant. They stand about 5 feet tall, have GINORMOUS thick blossoms and, something I rarely EVER see with Zinnia's, they had little to no leaf spot disease until recently, but it's still only at the bottom. I am amazed and Impressed, and I always have beautiful flowers for my table and even more in my yard for the pollinators.

    I really enjoy your videos! Very educational! And now I know why my carrots I planted 2 weeks ago didn't germinate...I planted too deep and there was intense heat...while I was away on vacation.😏 I'm going to try again after watching your video. I like how you also showed the square foot with the string to make it clear how many seeds to plant. Thanks for the great videos!

    Most cruciforms and some legumes can grow even beyond frost.
    I have had cabbage and broccoli grow over the winter.
    Also lentils will grow in winter.
    I also had some watermelons that survived 3 frosts and ended up producing full fruit, despite germinating August 27th.
    You never know what plants will make it, but many will handle cold weather just fine.
    Also celery can live in sub-zero temperatures if raised right.

    You are my favorite gardening channel! Kills me seeing all your amazing harvests, I'm in Texas and it's 105 all week! Mostly none of my plants are producing, not sure if heat or pollination but I am not giving up! started some new seedlings this week, hopefully our second growing season will be less brutal this year!

      Steve shade cloth over your garden to help protect them from the direct heat from the Sun. Use 40% shade cloth not 70% because the plant still need some sun.

      Steve I live in Texas to . Most of my plants burned up. Shade cloth won’t help if your humidity is almost 100% as it is here. We have had no rain in 2 months here in southeast Texas

      Yes I agree with above... Shade cloth! Millennial Gardener says that's the only way he is able to keep producing

    • @the420aries

    My 6 MONSTER Tomato plants have 3 tomatoes left now. Here in NW Louisiana, t1emps are around 100 everyday and 80 at night.
    I WOULD replant those containers EXCEPT that the tomato plants are the main support for my Cucumber plants which are running at full throttle right now. Four containers of cucumbers, each sending at least 1 but usually fruits a day. The tomato plants are about 7 feet tall, the cucumbers are over 10 feet tall. All in a 10 foot x 6 foot space.
    GO VERTICAL Y'ALL!!! BUT, get a light weight ladder.
    Any suggestions James?

    One video that has new gardeners would absolutely love to see and would be so helpful is close-up shots and recordings of you planting different kinds of seeds...... Because we don't always know what a small indentation really means because we are all different LOL. . Plus, because we are new, we really don't have any clue what we're doing half the time and we really just need some straightforward direction. ❤ Thanks for all you do
