How far do you plant them?

Please beware. The adjective "unique" cannot be qualified. You should not say "Very Unique" because unique means "one of a kind." A thing is either one of a kind, or it is not. It is either unique, or it is not unique. A thing cannot be very unique, or quite unique, or so unique.

Good to know. I don’t have drip irrigation so mine don’t get watered enough.

I’m sure they’ll bounce back!

My zinnias look exactly the same! Almost all my flowers do right now, just this week. It's odd because we haven't had much rain lately and I don't water them but they all started looking like that this week,even my morning glories! They looked great last week. They did get heavy rain early in the season but not recently. We have very high humidity right now so that was the only thing I could think of...too much water earlier in the season...its just odd to me that its all the sudden this week. We did have a cooler temp week last week and it's back to very hot this week. Maybe they aren't in the best shape this year and couldn't handle it? I'm in WV.

My flowers get overwatered every year because i live in rainy ireland. Im delighted you can do better next year!

Thanks much great advice. you can also mix them in a bouquet

My favourite ..the bees love them

Beautiful bouquet

Wow thanks for sharing. I used t9 have the one in middle

Stunning flowers

Thank you for this.

Which variety of Rudbeckia? They are gorgeous!

Thank you for your honesty. I am enjoying watching your journey.

Thank you for sharing the good, the bad and the ugly!

Thank you for sharing! Where can I get heirloom mums?

I'm absolutely feeling with you!!! And I understand you so well!!! So many flowerfarmers experienced that this year, changing weather conditions and resulting increased pest pressure ... a cocktail out of devils kitchen in terms of flower (or veggie) production. The experience that no one has time when you desperately need help is also well known 😢 Don't be sad, you're not alone!! And you are brave and go on and you share it with us, so that we also don't feel alone with these same problems! Thank you for this!! I think you will find a solution and its also a new experience and adventure in your life, don't forget that. You just can get into problematic situations if you try something, and would you like to live a life without adventure and trying out new things? I wouldn't like to ;) And: my farm is about 10 minutes away from where I live at the moment, because I have to renovate the old buildings. Its very difficult not to live there, because you never can use some free minutes for working in the fields. I think that makes it much more difficult for me and probably also for you. I could imagine, thats why you need workers to help you. But its not easy to afford those helping hands, thats clear. I'm curious about the solution you were talking about! I wish you the very best and hope, that everything turns well for you!! 🤗🌻🌼

Why oh why is she making this video with a loud engine in the background??

Thank you for sharing your struggles. I'm sorry it's not as you had hoped this year. I think you should move your farm to N Carolina- find land there. It must be hard not being able to be at the field. Nobody will take care of your farm like you would. I look forward to what's ahead for you, and am wishing you only the best!

I so appreciate your honesty. Cant wait to hear what's next! Best of luck to you!!

my fleuret zinnia im unsure for now... since it was a bad year for all the other zinnias... i have seeds left and will try them again next year.

montreal quebec also feels like september... i dont have as many flowers as last year. so starting fall vedgies lol

It Is not in your Control

😂😂😂😂 no one cares about ur failures

Well some of us live on 1800 a month preach elsewhere please

How did you decide what to plant?

I have lots of extra flowers from my farm and a florist in town asks for buckets of what ai have available. It’s not as profitable as selling retail but it keeps the flowers getting cut to come again for the whole season instead of just deadheading and composting them. It was intimidating to make the florist cold call but it is a win win for both of us. She and her customers are excited to have local flowers added to the arrangements.

Wow, I didn’t know about a double rudbeckia! Love it! Going to add that to my garden.

Not sure if its just me or not but my screen froze on the same image from 4:25-6:25 (2 minutes straight)

That’s a slippery slope. Grow your business and focus less on day to day sales. It’s like gambling addiction vs business plan.

cantik banget 😍

Beautiful!

Thank you!!

Have you put it as an experience on Airbnb? Definitely on the right track with events and hosting yoga classes. You could offer it to photographers doing family photos or engagement photos and then upsell bouquets!

I have lots of faith that once the word gets out, you’ll have lots of people coming out. Hang in there.

I hope it picks up big time. I know how much work goes into it because I have a small flower farm. I work so hard. Even when its 100 degrees and above. ❤❤❤

I was just thinking today on doing a cut flower sales, but I'm not even sure what to start with. Maybe I should pick at your brain. 😂. I just was thinking how I could make some extra side money. Thank you for sharing till next time God Bless. I'm also new subscriber.

It will catch on. I agree. If you have flowers you have to give them away so that people are talking. ❤

Did it work out alright?

I'm not sure if you ever talked about your opinion about spring sales. I've heard other flowerfarmers talking about the importance of spring and autumn sales, versus the difficulties of summer sales. From that I got the impression, that it is important to get in contact with the customer as early in the season as possible, just to build up a relationship as early as possible. Would it be possible for you to provide some tulips and daffodils in spring? For my own flowerfarm (year 2) spring is the best season. I feel with you!! I know how it is to wait for customers!! 🤗🌻

It can takes months to get a business started. Hope the vibe from the news stories help. You need to find other ways to get people to the farm - parties, etc. Maybe childen's birthday parties with smaller discounted bouquets for the children's of included with the price to rent out a space?

Best of luck to you! Praying you get all the business you need. Love your content. Hope to do the same in two years when we move to a new property.

My word 😮

Zinnia bouquets ❤

My mommy loved these. 💐

Congratulations!! We also live on LI and want to move to NC. We have to wait a bit because of my job. What area did you choose? We really like Carteret and Onslow counties but we also like the mountain areas.

It will be beautiful!!

Can you Help us understand your math. How much do you sell bouquets for? You said if you sell out, you would earn 100,000 in a week after selling 250 bouquets, but that would mean that people are paying $400 for a bouquet. That doesn’t seem right.

I’m so intrigued to see if the PR firm is worthwhile. I feel like it will be. I do also love the honor system for you pick. I wonder if anyone else does it that way. Excited for your season

Maybe have a small farmer's market to draw people in - fresh veggies, eggs, etc. Petting farm - a few goats, a llama, a pig, big tortoise? Really rooting for you!
