Happy Gardening 2024! Thanks for sharing 🤗
Thank you! Happy gardening to You too! 😊😊
Awesome seed haul! It's good to seed that you grow everything "from scratch."❤
Thank you!! I love growing as much as I can! 😊😊
Wow those are some fantastic seed choices Taryn. It’s pouring rain here so I’m not outside today 😅 but I did sow some mini carrots and potted on onions. Have an amazing week, Ali ☔️☔️☔️🇨🇦
Hey Ali! It’s raining a lot here too! But the snow is finally gone! Thank goodness 😅! I’m so excited for this growing season! It’s my favorite time of year! I hope you have a great week too! 😊😊😊
Love the variety of seeds and especially the lemon basil. I am looking forward to spring 🌱
Thank you sooo much!! I’m so ready for Spring too
Hi Taryn!Great seed haul!I'm looking forward to watching your amazing garden videos. Thanks for sharing this helps me to decide on what seeds are good for my garden for 2024.
Hi Gwen! Thank you sooo much for your support!! I really appreciate it!! I know your garden is going to be lovely!! 😊 - Taryn
I really enjoy hearing your enthusiasm! Keep up the good work. If you have room for a cattle or hog panel trellis curved over to make a tunnerl (4 ft wide space on each of the 2 sides), the Blue Lake Pole Bean is really prolific, string-less and tasty!
Oh! I’ve wanted a trellis like that for awhile! They are so cool and I love how plants grow up the trellis! 😊😊 Especially cucumbers and melons
It looks like you have an awesome selection of new seeds to try😊
Thank you soo much!!! 😊😊

Thank you so much!! 😊❤😊
@@sowinthecity My pleasure

Thank you so much!! ❤❤😊
Another delicious tomato is the Thornburn's Terra-Cotta from Baker Creek. We generally love tomatoes. Last year we grew more than 20 varieties and 152 plants. We have always loved Cherokee Purple Tomatoes and still do. However, Thornburn's Terra-Cotta became our #1 fresh eating sandwich tomato. Last year was our first year growing the Terra-Cotta because a packet costs $5. I had looking at it for a couple of years and finally broke down and bought the seeds. I decided to concentrate on tomatoes last year and pare down which tomatoes we like best for sauce, salsa and fresh eating. Our top picks are Sungold cherry, Cherokee Purple, Thornburn's Terra-Cotta, Black Beauty, Jersey Devil, Orange Strawberry (Botanical Interests) and Giant Paste (Botanical Interests). The largest tomatoes were the Accordion from Baker Creek. We are in E TN zone 7a. I'm looking forward to seeing your harvests! We grow Marigolds, I like the Super Hero Marigolds (Botanical Interests) and French Marigolds with the tomatoes and definitely plant Borage and Basil (my favorite is Lime Basil for tea) with your tomatoes...the best flavor comes forward with those plants in between the tomatoes. Inter-planting those 3 together, they all seem to grow larger with better harvests. And, they're all very useful ingredients!
WOW! I bet your garden is AMAZING!! Thank you for this valuable information!! I will definitely look into the Terra Cotta! It sounds like it tastes amazing! I like how you were able to figure out which tomatoes worked better as sauces, in salsa and eaten fresh! That’s one of my goals this year as well! 😊
Great seed haul! Much success with your garden!
THANK YOU SOO MUCH!
Hi Taryn! So many great seeds for your 2024 garden. Looking forward to watching your garden grow!
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!! I’m so excited!!!! I love growing season!! 😊😊😊 I love watching your videos too! Your channel is great!! 😊
@@sowinthecity Awww Taryn TY for saying that! Have a great weekend!
Thank you Taryn for sharing your seed haul! Those varieties are beautiful. Cannot wait to see you grow them in your garden. 2024 will be first time for me growing eggplants, looking forward to seeing how they do for me 😀
Thank you!! I’m sure your eggplants will do great!! 😊
We also grow Nasturtiums with our cucumbers. I love the Mahogany and the Black Velvet for contrast with the Tip Top Alaska. Wasps eat pests-bad garden bugs. For the Butterflies, Bees and Humming Birds grow the Tithonia also known as Mexican Sunflower. They will grow 10-15 feet tall and put on multiple red-orange flowers. They just don't stop putting on new growth and flowers! And yes, we had so many butterflies and shockingly Humming Birds on those flowers every day, all day. So amazing. My gardens will never be without them again. Never! If you grow Tithonia, your pollinators will stay in your gardens throughout your growing seasons.
Oh wow! I would LOVE to have hummingbirds in my garden! 😊 They are so beautiful! I’ve never heard of that flower until now, but I will DEFINITELY be growing it this year!! Thank you!! 😊😊
Thanks for sharing ❤
Thank you for watching!!
I can imagine you planting these seeds and having a beautiful garden. It looks like it will be pretty and healthy. I can see how excited you are. Green beans are fun to grow. Stringing the lines for them to grown on, picking them before they get too big. I left mine go and they were there in Spring still. We cut them open and the beans inside the long green beans were still good and not frozen dead. Radishes come up first. I always planted one row of radishes even though I didn't eat them much. They were hope fruit. You knew all the garden would eventually be full, but seeing those radishes coming up in 2 weeks. That is fun.
I’m so excited for my garden!! 🪴 I’ve never tried growing radishes but I LOVE growing green beans!! 😊😊
@@sowinthecity Radishes are your hope that ALL of it will come up and nothing will eat them. Even if you only grate them into salads they always come up first. I love green beans too!!
Great haul! I did not know that tomato and basil were companion plants. I've had trouble growing basil but I'll try them together this time. I've purchased seeds from Baker Creek and grew their Paul Robeson tomatoes last year. They germinated and grew well and were really juicy and good, so good job picking those up from MiGardner! You also mentioned purchasing the Tulsi Basil - I think people make tea out of it sometimes. Have you ever gone to the Baker Creek National Heirloom Expo? It's now in Southern California but I used to go when it was in Northern California. Fantastic - you'd love it.
Yep! Tomatoes and basil work so well together! I bet Tulsi tea is soo good! I’m so excited about all the herbs I’m growing this year! I would love to go to the Baker Creek conference! I’ve heard great things about it! 😊😊
@@sowinthecity I think you should definitely try to get there at some point. The vendors and exhibits are so good as well as the speakers and presentations. You could spend all day just listening to the different speakers They really bring in the best in their fields. I did make it to many of the Northern California conferences but haven't yet made it to SoCal
Taryn , Tulsi is Holy Basil! So you will be growing just what you wanted.
Thank you soo much! I was so confused about that lol 😆
New subscriber. Thanks for sharing your seed haul ❤.
Thank you for joining the family! 😊😊
Great haul! 🙌 I’m growing orange watermelons for the first time this year too. One of them is the orangello 🧡
Hi Nicole! That’s sooo exciting! Watermelons are so fun to grow! Please forgive me for my late reply! I just got back from vacation
I love yellow watermelons. Tulsi is just another word for holy basil. There are quite a few types of tulsi/holy basil. Kapoor, Krishna, Amrita, Rama.... Kappor and Krishna are the most popular. I've grown the Black Beauty tomato. They take a long time to ripen. The part most exposed to the sun will be the darkest. Alaska Salmon is one of my favorite nasturtium varieties.
I need to look up those other holy basil varieties! Hopefully I can be patient when waiting for the Black Beauty tomato to ripen lol 😆 how did you like the taste? Was it a really strong flavor?
@@sowinthecity it's been a few years, but if I remember correctly, it's a little acidic.
This was fun. Thank you. Very nice varieties. You can grow the carrots in the fall garden if you have one ❤
Thank you!! I LOVE carrots! I wish I would have planted some this past fall, but I will definitely plant them for next fall! 😊😊
Very nice video... I would have loved to see what you grew, when you describe what you grew before I wish you would have cut or B rolled to give that visual.
Thank you for this advice! I greatly appreciate it! I will definitely keep this in mind when I do another Seed Haul 😊
Tulsi and holy basil is the same thing
Thank you!!
You won’t have to buy holy basil anymore, you have it. Tulsi is another name for holy basil.
THANKS! I was so confused lol 😆
When are you going to start your seeds?
Tomorrow morning!
@@sowinthecity
Can you do a video on how you start your seeds?
Hello there! How's your seeds going? Any update on these? :) Tag me up! Thanks!
My seeds are doing well! Thanks for asking! I’ll definitely tag you in my previous video I made about my seedlings! I’m also going to upload another video this week 😊😊
