My husband and I knew that we were going to move, so we didn't plant the garden. But, the garden decided otherwise, we left our mobile home to a homeless family, and they have volunteer potatoes, tomatillos, butternut squash, and tomatoes. When they came up I told my husband to just let them grow, that someone would make use of them so he kept them weeded up until we loaded up and left.

I was so excited to harvest my garlic today. I have about 150 bulbs. Making lots of garlic powder in two weeks. Some carrots, radishes, lettuce and onions get picked as we need it. I don’t think our tomatoes will be ready until mid August but they are looking good. The garden gives me such pleasure.

I’m a rural San Diego gardener zone 10 and years ago my sweet Hubbs added market lights all across my garden so I could garden at night when the days are too hot. I LOVE night gardening. It’s so peaceful.

That’s a great idea. I’m in zone 4 but any sunny day over 80 is rough here so post sundown watering would be so nice!

I’ve been watching you for YEARS and years and this is my favorite tour ever. THE MAGIC of that ripe maturing paradise in the anticipatory morning fog is palatable. I could almost smell it - and it seemed like time paused and held its breath through the entire vlog. Just wow.

Bear in mind that in 2018 you said the Silver Slicer was a cucumber you would always grow and I ordered a packet of them along with a few other things from Hudson Valley Deed, they arrived here in NC the week of July 4th. I planted them and they grew and I got cucumbers from them until the first frost! So plant a second round of our favorite cucumber and enjoy the BEST until frost. I am NC zone 7b so you should have plenty of time to enjoy them still!!!

In dry Australia, we water of evening as it gives the plant time to absorb the water before sun up to evaporate. I find the vegie patch thrives in the heat water it nightly rather than having wet feet in the extreme heat, cooking the roots while having wet feet .

@jsalyersarts Ай бұрын

This makes sense to me! I've been doing a lot of research - should I water morning or night? So much conflicting info out there that I'm not sure, but I like the way you explained that!

I just bought this house December 2023 I started this garden small as I would call it, and in ground. Starting over here in northern Indiana I guess I forgot how much weeding it takes. I prayed today not knowing what to do moving forward cuz I need to expand it a lot to grow all my own food as possible and your site came to mind. I was very encouraged by the variety of ways that you are growing and God reminded me not to despise the Small beginnings and to begin imagining the progression ❤ thanks for always sharing 🙏

I laughed out loud when you talked about wood chips. I’m hauling all my decomposed, full of weeds, wood chips turned dirt out as I’m listening to KZfaq videos! It’s currently 89f with a real feel of 95f at my house in Utah. I come out and work until I can’t stand it and then go inside and cool off. I’ve been at it since early this morning.

I was so excited to find a volunteer plant in my garden this year. Actually, several sunflowers and 2 tomatoes. The reason I am so excited is because I live in zone 5b, southcentral Iowa. And over the last few years our winters have been so extreme. So much so that I have never seen temps as low as they have been. And I have lived here for over 30 years. Really thinking about moving and heading south. These old bones need more warmth. LOL!! Thanks for sharing your foggy morning with us. Reminds of when I lived in Santa Clara, California. Take care, you are looking a little worn down. Don't forget to take time for you. Blessings Jess and everyone!

So beautiful. I live in SW Ontario and we have been having 30 - 35 C temp. over the past couple of weeks, although it has cooled a bit this week. I must say that personally I don't enjoy the the hot humid weather. I have really noticed in the past few years our summer temperatures have risen several degrees. Last winter my brother didn't use his snow blower once. He had to dump out the fuel to put it into storage. I feel that climate change is real and we need politicians that will take notice.

I purchased spoon tomatoes this year from Baker’s Creek, having never heard of them. I have a couple growing in a large pot on the edge of my garden bed. They are doing so well here in coastal NC. I love tomato products, like salsa and sauces, but I don’t like to eat raw tomatoes. However, I ADORE tiny things, so when I saw them, I knew I had to grow them simply for the joy of them. And joy they have indeed brought me.
