It takes awhile for some of them to catch on but once they do it's a big relief to me so I don't always have to be there right away to back it into the barn...

backing a wagon with a tounge is no easy task to teach....normally comes with growing up doing it on the farm. Glad I can still find highschoolers that want to work, I don't really want to hire migrants.

Hey, I appreciate the detailed explanation for those who may be seeking more information on triploids. I didn’t want to try to go into all this during the video, was trying to keep it simple and just demonstrate how we plant them, thanks again.

Thank you so much!

Thanks so much for stopping by and checking it out! May I ask what are some of your other favorite vegetable farming channels? I’m planning to showcase some other vegetable farms on my channel during the off-season and always looking for suggestions.

@@wishwellfarms I watch The Veggie Boys and Broyans Farm

@@dwainavance those are the same two that I watch! I have an invite to the veggie boys hope to visit them this fall when I’m traveling to New England! I also watch Farmer Dre in Missouri a little bit and have been trying to make it out to his place. I watch a handful of regular grain farming channels as well, one of my good buddies Brian‘s farming videos in Chillicothe Ohio has a pretty big channel and also watch Cole the corn star and millennial from time to time.

Thank you so much! Best of luck with your garden this season!

Yes, five points is an awesome location and I sure hope the roundabout doesn’t disrupt us too much, I thought about going over to Colemans Crossing somewhere if it does. I bought a lot of my walk-in cooler parts from Steve back in the day when he was located behind Potsies barbecue, which I miss terribly by the way…. I have never yet found pork anywhere in the country as good.

Yep, I will have a video of the trailer going to Market very soon! We’ve dealt with our fair share of early blight and bacterial speck and spot, which is very hard to control without spraying several times a week which I do not do, but I do try to add a fungicide every week to 10 days.

Thank you for subscribing and commenting! Yes, raising fruits and vegetables can be overwhelming at times and I often feel like no matter how hard I work I can never catch up, definitely couldn’t do this year around and glad I have several months off in the winter to recover ha ha. Hope you have a successful growing season and Best of luck on your hydroponic endeavor

Glad to hear that , thanks!

At most Ohio farmers markets you can only sell what you grow, your not allowed to bring in a neighboring farms produce or anything grown elsewhere or you will ge kicked out of the market. This is good because it keeps the peddlers out and only the real farmers can get in to sell what they grow/produce. Our trailer is just like our own stand like at my farm but is mobile to take to a busy intersection in a parking lot that I lease from the owner. Here I'm free to add southern produce like peaches, and other produce that I do not grow or items that I'm waiting on to ripen in my own fields but are currently ripe in Georgia for example.

There is a ice cream business in the parking lot that we lease and they let us use there restroom and there is a gas station across the street....good question

Great question, and after I finished filming I was upset that I didn’t discuss this. So the pollinators only get about softball size and are an ugly pale green color, so it is very easy to tell them apart.

Yes we do. We will begin spraying a weekly foliar feed of Nutri K and Nutri Cal with Coron which is nitrogen and manganese and boron when fruit has begun forming on the plants. We alternate this with Megafol.

Red garnet, El Capitan, and sweet Polly. In the past we’ve also planted millionaire, harmony, and sugar heart, as well as several others

They rarely bother our produce, mainly just walk across the plastic an punch holes in it. Crows love the watermelon though!

Good question, no they are not, they are only about the size of softballs and are full of seeds. But a person could use regular seeded watermelons as pollinators as well. But then you have both types intermixed which can get a little tricky depending on the varieties grown…normally they look quite different but not always.

​@@wishwellfarms we grow sangria as our pollinator , easy to see and good melon for sales.

@@wadepregitzer2532 yes those are great! We just can’t sell a seeded melon at our markets, no one wants them…might be able to give them away lol
