It would really be helpful if instead of talking about chores in terms of the month you do them you spoke in terms of seasons - i.e. instead of saying 'plant in April' say 'plant mid-spring' or 'plant 3rd to 4th week of spring'. Would help those of us in the Southern Hemisphere.

Another tip for those that may want fresh greens when you don’t have a place in the house or a green house. I bought carts with a top and bottom shelf that are on wheels. I place my beloved plants that I don’t want to lose over winter in pots (the ones I know will for sure freeze) and place the pots on the carts. I roll these carts in and out of my storage area daily so they can have sun in winter. I grow spinach, Swiss chard, onions, lettuce, parsley, etc as well on these carts. It is so refreshing to be able to go to my carts in winter, select some greens, go in and cook a Spanish omelette, etc. I never have to buy any of that during the winter now. Then in the summer, no more rolling the carts in and out. But really, it was very easy to roll them in and out and it gave me way more joy knowing I had fresh food all year.

In October I tossed a few spinach seeds in my southern exposure garden (Zone 6a) Near Cincinnati. I've been happily harvesting green spinach leaves almost all winter. They survived the snow and the cold. They have done well under a plastic cake box top. On March 1st I planted lettuce, radishes (big ones), and spinach. I cover them at night and on cold days. So far all have sprouted. My grocery store leek that I stuck in the ground in October is doing nicely. The free rutabaga seeds grew and were left uncovered, but they are growing well. I should have covered them on some very cold nights. I felt guilty and they would be better if I had the foresight to do so.

@JulesGardening Жыл бұрын

Good point on fabric versus plastic. 👍 We are about a month ahead for anyone reading. One thing you can do for direct sow crops, and assuming you planted by spacing without planning to thin later, is to re-seed any gaps. I find that more efficient than planting a long row and then thinning later. But it does depend on how much you are growing, too. I think it would be too time consuming to plant by spacing if you were doing long rows of a lot of crops. Good show, Jenna. Thanks. 👍

@Javaman92 Жыл бұрын

I typically space my plants so I don't have to thin them and as you suggest just fill in the gaps or just as likely, remain happy with what did come up. It's just me I am feeding anyway. Good advice. 😀

I leave some of my carrots to grow through the second year and you will get tons of seeds. One carrot can produce quite a bit of seed. I did this the first year I ever planted carrots and now I never have to seed / plant them. They seed themselves. But if you live where there is Queen Anne’s Lace or Poison Hemlock, you may want to gather the seed and plant yourself on year three. Watch for cross pollination as well. I don’t live where these plants are so, it is very easy for me. Planted them once and now every year, I can harvest carrots without having to plant them. Love that! And they make beautiful while flowers for my neighbor’s bees.

I was surprised when my boys told me that it had been in the 60s in Ohio. We are barely in the 40s here and our nights are in the 20s. Yet I have been looking at these onion starts I have grown figuring that soon they should be going in the ground. Just seeing the picture of your onion starts made me understand how big they need to be. In that I am on track. I'm thinking of giving it another week or so however. I smiled when you showed that clip of your children searching for potatoes. That is probably my biggest reason for growing them, children love to discover them waiting for them under the soil. It was a pleasure as always listening to your good advice. Another gardening season is upon us!

Hi guys (the lovely little lad, too!), am lóving your vibe and the getting dirty with Mother Earth. Btw for pinning down fleece i use pegs like yours at the corners, but a single-leg peg-with-a-curl-at-the-top along ends and lengths. Plus sometimes canes between them to relieve wind pressure on the peg points. I allow a few of the kales to go to seed and self-sow; many seedlings 8" high by mid March, then transplant if in awkward place. Corn salad (lambs' lettuce) and winter purslane my favourite over-winter veggies. Arugula not quite so happy over winter but nice when it is. 🙏🏽 🌳🕊💚 🌱🌱🌱

Where did you find the plastic cloche you show at 3:06. It would be perfect in my raised beds and looks efficient and small enough to store when not in use. The hint to germinate the peas before planting is a wonderful idea. I have done this with with pepper seeds in chamomile tea before, but never with peas. I will try it this season and hopefully my early spring crop will grow and produce faster with less rotting seeds.

Thanks Jenna. Super informative. We try for an early start here in New England as well. With your guidance I think we may try and increase the number of varieties...Cheers!!!

Yay! More varieties is always exciting!

Adding to the conversation. I so appreciate Jenna's advice. My thoughts are about all the variability. There is Zone and temperature. Where I live, while I think Zone, Temperature and maybe even rainfall is adequately considered. I think all the planting time videos and my personal experience suggest that the variable of Sunshine needs more consideration as I live in something similar to the London fog.

In the Florida panhandle, already have catterpillers on my Tomato plants 😢. I did a winter crop this year and grew purple Cauliflower which got frozen in the Christmas freeze here 17 degrees farenheit. My Brussels made it and still going. May have to check out Bright Cellars cause I'm having a glass of wine right now😅

Oh goodness! I'm not ready to think about tomato pests yet-- sorry to hear you're dealing with them! Enjoy that glass of wine!

Hi Jenna, From an nice winter/spring with a warm sun shining and bare soil, yesterday we got 15 cm of snow!! Just before though I sowed some lettuce in a couple of hanging baskets. Greetings from Sweden/Stockholm, zone 6a/b.

When I cover my stuff with clear plastic at night, I figure 70 degrees is the border temp to keep it on during the day. If it is sunny and over 70 degrees I ventilate so the plants don't get cooked, under 70 degrees and sunny, I leave it on, and don't ventilate. Although if it is 50 degrees and sunny, the plants grow like crazy under clear plastic.

Great advice, Don! I used to aim for 60/65- but it's good to know they don't fry at 70!

@@andreamortimer2610I'm betting it has something to do with either the amount of sun or the altitude.

@andreamortimer2610 Жыл бұрын

@@sometimessnarky1642 I think it's the amount or the intensity of sunrays because sunshine can be pretty intense here to where you feel your skin prickling even during winter. The plastic might even concentrate the sunrays kind of like lenses especially if water drops have formed on it. Don't think it's the altitude; I'm only at about 1,200ft.

Haha I have no time planning. I started everything from tomatoes and peppers to lettuce and carrots february 21st and the first of March. Funny. I'm eager to get out. I am still building my garden all over. So hopefully in a week or 2 I'm ready to plant in my new raised beds. Super excited. Cutting some big trees down this year too for more sun.

My heart sank the moment you said BAM! Lol! Interesting you said you generally grow parsnips as a Fall crop. One year my parsnips went to seeds and self sowed the following spring. So last year I broadcasted the remaining parsnip seeds in October, they germinated well by January 8th and are showing true leaves in March. Never heard of anyone else used parsnip as Spring cover crop but they do rot just like daikon radish. Lots of great information, Jenna. Good video!

Oh wow! I've also never heard of anyone using it as a spring cover crop- innovative! I'll have to try an October sow this fall!
