Hey Randi! Good to hear from you again. Trust you're doing great! Thanks 😊 for stopping by again.

@@dr_obisgarden I wanted to tell you we had our first two pineapples 🍍 they were delicious! Thanks to your help 🙏🏻🙏🏻😊

@@RandiG63 That's awesome! I'm glad the techniques shown in our videos have enabled you to enjoy delicious homegrown pineapples. Best wishes with your gardening.

I keep the banana in water overnight (about 12 hours). After the first application, I soak it for another 12 hours and use it one more time.

@@dr_obisgarden thanks❤️❤️❤️

Yes, raw carrots just like the rabbits and bunnies love it. 😋

That's good to know. Once the flowers have appeared, they are very likely to form seeds since carrots can be both cross and self pollinated. Best wishes.

I agree that letting the bottom dry before putting it in water is the best. I recommend that too. However, if you actually cut off all remaining fruit from the bottom you can still put it in water right away and it will not rot unless of course the crown was already infected. This is from experience.

The fresh Team is leading now :-)

Glad you like it!

Looks like fresh is winning 😅.

I love it fresh too 😍

You're most welcome. Glad that you found it useful.

I won't recommend it.

Thank you! You too!

Hmm. That could be a sign of infection. Try and see if you can separate the shoots. If you can, move it into the soil to continue growing. This is not a guarantee, but sometimes it helps. Best wishes.

You're most welcome. In a tropical setting, 8-10 months is a good time to initiate forcing.

Yes, you can! You're welcome.

Thanks

Or at least you get to provide some of your family's onion needs.

Welcome 😊

You're most welcome. Best wishes!

I'm currently based in Ghana so I can't give you a specific month. However, lettuce prefers cool weather so you can plant it during months when the weather is cool. Hot weather makes the leaf bitter to taste.

It depends on the crown. If it is big you can cut it into eight sections. Even with four sections, if you harvest the plantlets after 3 months and continue to take care of the sections, you can get more than four plants.

You're most welcome! Glad you found it useful.

Glad you love it. You are very welcome.

It most likely will not work. The pineapple should have grown big enough to be able to sustain the growth of the fruit. Smaller plants will produce smaller fruits.

@@dr_obisgarden thank you

So nice of you. Best wishes with your garden.

Thanks, dear!

@simonjoebaidoo4369 that's interesting. I can think of a few possible causes. 1. Your soil is infested with pathogens that cause onion diseases 2. You're overwatering the plants 3. You're not giving the plants enough water 4. You're planting the shoots too deep. If #1 is the cause, you should consider sterilizing the soil.

@@dr_obisgarden thank you for replying . I'll take note of the points you've listed for me next time I try growing onions .

@@dr_obisgarden thank you

Separate the shoots when most of the flesh of the mother plant/bulb has rotted.

I'm glad to know that my tips are helping you grow your pineapple. All the best.

Great, all the best!

Sure, I can do a video on that. However, I can talk more about the varieties I have grown before.

@@dr_obisgarden So we are waiting. Thank you doctor

I just use ordinary garden soil but if you prefer, you can use commercial cactus soil if available. Ordinary soil works fine so long as it is not clayey.

Agreed!

Sorry to hear that. Best wishes with your onion plants.

You're welcome.

Right! Everyone else says to let it dry. That's what I did to get roots. He's confusing 😅😅😅

I guess it didn't come out well. Leaving it out for a couple of days should be okay and allows it cure. What is not good is leaving it on the counter for a long time when you're not ready to plant. In that case it's better to let it root in water whilst waiting.

I bring mine in for the fall/winter and have a stick in them to see when they are dry. Summer we have it rain once a month at least so I don’t water them.
