Well with the population being 330 million I don’t see that being to hard to imagine. Not everyone is on the internet to share their garden.

So beautiful! My heart aches a little watching, I had the best garden I’ve ever had until a week ago. I live on the western side of Kansas and we had a terrible hail. 80 MPH winds and four inches of rain in less than 20 minutes. My garden was obliterated. Flowers, cutting garden, raised beds. Gone. My pumpkin patch looked like it was mowed. But as bad as I feel for my garden, there are acres and acres of fall crops in my area destroyed, field sprinklers turned over, houses with windows smashed. So I will enjoy your garden and the gardens of others and hope my fall crops I planted after the hail will thrive!

That's heart breaking! This is my first year seriously gardening, and I didn't expect how emotional it would be! I had 2 good wind storms break my tomato plants, and a deer came through and cropped one of my pepper plants. Each incident threw me off for days!

@rochellemiller6329 11 ай бұрын

Thanks for understanding! It feels selfish to be so sad, but I wasn’t ready to say goodbye yet! I’ve planned some changes for next year to better protect things. Gardening is all about learning every year for sure!

Blight can last in the soil for years some people put 3 yrs in between planting tomatoes peppers and potatoes in the same space I guess it's called crop rotation but you can use natural sprays to help kill the spores.

Thanks for showing using a butane torch for squash bug eggs. I also have used it to kill the squash bugs themselves. I may have burnt my finger sand started a small fire in my garden killing some yesterday, but it's totally worth it! Surprisingly most of my squash bugs have been on my cucumbers and not my squash.

I'm not sure when you planted out your potatoes but it might be worth starting them a bit earlier since your summer is so hot. Potatoes are temptature sensitive with most active root development is at soil temperatures of between 59 and 68˚F. You might also choose a slightly quicker maturity potato to see if it will size up before the heat. Yukon Gem is slightly quicker to mature and has resistance to late blight.

You have beautiful gardens! You may need to fertilize your strawberries and asparagus and tomatoes just as they start to put on flowers. Trifecta or any 20/20/20 fertilizer will help all fruits get bigger faster. It seems to me that tomatoes , being a Warm weather crop would love hot weather. Food for thought. I move my crops every year...rotation. With 8 separate gardens, it takes some thought. Your gardens look beautiful and you may try to rotate. It limits the pests. They have trouble finding their favourites.

Your garden is spectacular! Great job! I have a couple of recommendations for you: (1) Zucchini Striato d'Italia appears to be vine borer-resistant. For each of the 3 years prior to planting this variety, the borer attacked my zucchini. For the last 3 years, planting only Striato d'Italia, I've had no vine borer incidents. I can't attribute this good fortune to any other reason but the change in variety. (2) For early-developing sweet bell peppers, try Mountaineer, which was developed to grow in Zone 5. I'm in 6b in NJ and this pepper always ripens before any other bell pepper, which seems to be more important than ever to have a decent harvest. Thanks for sharing and I wish you continued success!

@elizabethstreeter2145 11 ай бұрын

I plant my tomatoes in the sunniest spot of the garden and move the gardens around every year so nothing grows in the same bed two years in a row ,you have plenty of beds to do that might help with the blight also,hope you dug down deep enough when you harvested your potatoes, you will find out if you get volunteers in that patch, also keep heaping them up and add some animal manure we ended up with enormous handspan size potatoes when we did that, have been binge watching your videos and just starting ours now ,we are getting late frosts though which is not helpful thanks for taking the time to share your garden.

Thoughts about the tomatoes, perhaps the sun on the other side of the garden kept the leaves drier so the plants could deal better with the humidity. Also, do you have a pollinator plant for your elderberries? Have you gotten berries yet?

I love seeing your videos pop up! I'm a bit confused about my first frost date. One place says Oct 5th and another says the 15th. I guess I'll just have to err on the side of caution and plan on the 5th. Do you think if I cover my brassicas with hoops and plastic they will still be ok if we do get a frost before they're done? I know they wouldn't be able to handle a freeze but maybe a frost. This is my first year doing a good size garden and growing brassicas.

@kdonor 11 ай бұрын

Brassicas do well with frost. I've had them thrive in the low 20s. Actually I kept kale alive through an entire Winter getting below -30 with a row cover.

@kimberlyearly8918 11 ай бұрын

@@kdonor Thanks!

@kimberlyearly8918 11 ай бұрын

@@kdonor Is it too late to start from seed or would it be safer to buy starts? Obviously it's cheaper to start from seed but not sure if I have time before first frost date. Also, was your row cover pretty air tight?

@kdonor 11 ай бұрын

I put bricks down to keep my row cover down but it wasn't necessarily air tight. I mostly did it to keep cabbage moths off my brassicas. I'd love to make a hoop structure in the next year or two. I think it's late to start from seed cabbages and such. It's to me a hard season /hard to pull off fall crops because it's over 100 here most of the week so way too hot for cool crops yet the days are shortening and that will make things take longer. If you could find plants of your Brassicas that might work out just fine. Around here I don't think any hardware stores etc sell fall plants. And though I start all my seeds indoors in the late winter /early spring, I can't in the summer because I'm keeping our curtains over windows to keep the heat out. I hope that was helpful. I did plant more summer squash a few weeks ago and maybe next year I'll sow fall snow peas or something but depending on your climate, it's not easy. (,I'm in Nebraska if that helps)

@kimberlyearly8918 11 ай бұрын

@@kdonor Thankfully, there's a greenhouse near me that sells brassicas for fall. I called and they have everything I want. The only reason I'd want to start from seed is to save on pricing but I figured it was too late. I already have hoops made with PVC that I covered my stuff to keep moths away. I'll get greenhouse plastic to use for the cold weather. Thanks for replying!!

Maybe next year I have to start earlier.

🙋‍♀️ Question! Why did you put your zucchini in a cage? Is it to keep them small for cooking? This has been my first year growing them. I planted 2 bush type with no cage and they got enormous and have been putting out a scary amount of giant zucchini. Like tomatoes, they kept putting out more roots along the stem as they took over their garden space and touched ground. I just harvested my biggest yesterday (6lbs 12oz 16"x5.5"). I know they're not supported to be allowed to get that big, but they haven't been watery or seedy, and I mostly use them for zucchini breads. Is it ok for the plants to grow that way, or does the cage do something for them?

Sorry don't spray with washing up stuff for blight...I just watched other utube channels U need to cut off leaves and the need air around your plants a lady put copper spray on them... Also U can't drop the leaves that have blight put in garbage bag and get rid of it in your normal garbage bin... Other wise your soil will be infested by the blight...can't ground stuff for years so look into it...by utube channels...good luck...
