@@debradeberry6328 Yes! I apologize. I’ve changed the name of the channel & blog. In the course of this I’ve discovered that it wasn’t a simple transition. Here are the links for both the full RUclips video & the recipe on the blog. Thank you so much for contacting me & I DO hope you enjoy the recipe!

@@royelkwood5000 To each their own. For jeans this works for me. I’m sure you’ll find the way that works best for you.

@@arusticrenaissance that fails to explain the exertion and time wasted

@@hiddenhen We use home grown, organically cared for garlic & I haven’t had any experience with this issue. I’d say, if you’re able, find a trusted source for organic garlic. I haven’t dealt with garlic rust at all but it sounds like you have. If there’s a way to see the plant and not just buy the bulb that may help in your selection. Another way to minimize this problem would be to grow your own then there would be no doubt as to its health. Thank you for watching!

It will repel them but you must constantly check your plants and spray as you see them return. They dislike the smell so they will try to find easier pickings. They are horrible pests! We don’t live close to others who garden so I use this along with traps to keep our plants healthy. Happy gardening!

@@arusticrenaissance Thank you so much!! I'll keep an eye on those creepy beetles 🪲

Here’s the link: mine is still going strong. I do cover it to protect from sun damage and bring in during our winters when we get snow. amzn.to/3VgL7uH Thank you for watching!

Absolutely agree! I lay mine in the basket but a holder would be perfect!

Great idea!!

I totally understand!! Best investment I’ve made!

Since changing the name of the channel, there have been some links that still need updating. Thank you for letting me know! Here is the correct link: www.arusticrenaissance.com/instant-pot-marry-me-chicken-recipe/#wprm-recipe-container-7944

For sure! I’ve never bought another plant from that company again either. Thanks for watching!

You should have a very nice harvest if they all come up! Be sure to be vigilant about squash vine borers (if they are an issue in your area). Unfortunately, Candy Roaster Squash is susceptible to these garden pests. Thank you for watching & enjoy your garden!

You are welcome!

That’s the thing with organic solutions. A rain or a good garden watering and you have to reapply. Through the JADAM method I’ve learned that the addition of Castile soap will make the product “sticky longer. In the end, I’m willing to make repeated trips to keep chemicals outside of our garden but not everyone has that luxury.

So happy for you. We feel the same way. Even the flowers we plant are edible. No wasted food space! Hmmm, I’d say that last year my days were very full & I wasn’t as good about checking the squash. While they are an easy grower, I should’ve watered better (I was hit and miss on watering) and that lead to less than healthy plants that took a beating from squash bugs. All my fault. I adore making “pumpkin pie” out of them & think they taste better than pumpkin! Be sure when you harvest & prep to cook, to save those seeds. Let them dry completely. Those seeds have a fabulous sprout rate. Enjoy & thanks for watching!!

I did indeed add 2 tablespoons of my homemade hot sauce to the gallon sprayer. Be sure to spray early morning or evening & watch which way the wind blows! It’s powerful stuff. Thanks for watching!

Awww! And we had a dog named Harley!!

Yes. It’s the large.

Im SOooooo happy you did!! 💚

This recipe creates two 5 gallon buckets. 2 each 5 gallon buckets 1 cup borax 1/2 cup washing soda (not baking soda) 1 whole bar Fels Naptha soap grated Melt grated soap in a pot on your stove with about 1 quart of water, until it’s completely dissolved. Fill a 5 gallon bucket half way up with hot water. Add melted soap, washing soda & borax. Stir until it’s all dissolved. I use a battery drill & paint mixer attachment. Fill the same bucket with hot water to about an 1” or 2 from the top. Cover & let sit over night. It’s going to gel up. Next day, break up the gel (drill with paint mixer attachment comes in handy again). Transfer half the soap to the other 5 gallon bucket. Add hot water to both buckets to fill back to 1”-2” from top. Done. During the summer I don’t transfer to another bucket. I use the laundry soap at the stronger strength for more cleaning power.

Lol!! Once she tastes them she’ll be sorry you couldn’t grow them sooner!!

Agreed! Such an investment, needs to be carefully maintained.

It is!!

Looks delicious!!🙏✌️

@@ontheplant Thanks Tom! It’s so easy to make & totally delicious

What was in the blue bottle? Something I’d like??😁😋

@@McGieHomesteadAdventures it’s just vodka to extract the lemon oil to make the limoncello. I think you’d like the limoncello! I’ll have to bring some next time!!

Right? I stopped buying store dressings years ago. Then I learned how easy (& better tasting) homemade is! This won’t taste like the bottled ranch version. It’s much more flavor forward. I toyed with ingredients (we like even more basil & garlic in ours). Now we have thousand island, blue cheese, Catalina, vinaigrette & more. All homemade! Thanks for watching!!

Oh THANK YOU!!!

I’m SO glad you liked it. That makes my day!

I clean my freeze dryer after each use. There are fine particles that develop as the freeze dryer does it’s magic. I want to be very certain to keep it in top shape. I use warm water, dampen a wash rag or sponge & wipe out the unit after it defrosts. I don’t find it necessary to do a thorough cleaning (each & every shelf) every single time but I do inspect it closely for residue. I find that anything I freeze dry does emit an odor. Typically I will run smellier things such as onions or garlic in warmer weather with the windows open (the room my dryer is in has 2 windows). Liver did give off a vague odor but it didn’t make it through the house.

@@arusticrenaissance, thanks for the info. I have liver in my freezer in line for the FD. I have a much better idea of what to do now.

Absolutely! I was shocked the first time I washed by hand. Couldn’t believe the difference.

I use mine to preserve our garden harvest & that’s priceless for us. Along with treats for the dogs, I make tea blends, dried herbs for cooking along with freeze drying any leftovers we have. It’s a steep price & we are lucky to own one. As for offering times, I don’t mention this because it’s different for everyone. There are all kinds of “it depends” moments. Do you prefreeze or not? What’s your weather like the day you run the machine (humid or not humid). What’s the indoor temp of the room you have it in. Do you run fans on the machine (I do to keep the machine & room cool). How full are your trays? The thickness of what’s on the tray? All these things will change operation time. My run times will not be the same as someone else’s. Herbs dry the quickest for me. Usually about 9 hours. Most other things I dry take around 24 hours. I don’t run super watery items like melons so I have no idea times for those. It’s truly a owner by owner situation.

As a matter of fact, yes. This year I planted Might Mustard Trifecta. It’s a non gmo biofumigant. It’s supposed to: Suppress soilborne pathogens Suppress broadleaf weeds Suppress nematodes I just cut it down yesterday, chopped it into pieces to release the glucosinolates and watered it in. Trialed it in our onion bed to see how it works. I’m excited about the notion that this can help lower the nematode population! It’s the glucosinolates that take care of the pathogens & nematodes. The shear mass of the plants help suppress weeds. Fingers crossed & thanks for asking!

Hey no worries! Also attracts a ton of beneficial pollinators, Crimson Clover is also a great one to add@@arusticrenaissance 🐝 I've only got that plus Lucerne (alfalfa) was thinking of chucking in a some Peanut for more soil food 🌱

@@growinau love the idea of peanuts. They are supposed to grow well here. Still have to harvest the trial crop of those. Just a few bushes. We are bringing in a gentleman, next year, that specializes in regenerating pastures. It’s such a large job for two people & I want to spend money on what really works for our land. So many options out there! Love what you’re doing, keep up the good work!

What a great gardening success!

For me, the biggest difference is strength. Obviously the Maytag doesn’t take strength from me, the wringer does. Jeans are my nemesis 😂 The waist, zipper, button area are tough to run through the wringer & need to be positioned just right. Even so, I still prefer hand wringing. Towels, shirts etc… squeeze the same (again, to me). The end result is still damp but not wringing wet. I will take the wringer over the machine wringer most days, unless it’s mucking day… then those biceps are busy with the shovel 🤣

So glad you tried growing them! We were sold on this variety after our first grow. They do store very well!

@5DogFarm I am a seed saver, so ALL my gardening buddies will get some too!

Nope. Not hard at all. Some channels show the instructions period. Some channels chat with their followers. Seems this channel isn’t for you. Best of luck with your organic pursuits!

It took a crew of 3 men, 3 months to build it.

@@arusticrenaissance dang! I’m about to start a similar one. Wondering what’s in store 🤠

That’s a great system!

@@arusticrenaissance I can't take credit... I was inspired by @SchoolReports and have since refined my own method. I recommend looking at some of his vids. He has freeze dried about everything you can (and many things you are not supposed to be able to like chocolate!).

@@JM7284 I have watched some of those videos- it’s been a while tho. I’ll be sure to head over. I never want to stop learning!! Thank you 😊

I have not had that happen but if it were me I’d first take into account the color. How orange (how close to ripe) is it? Also, I’d probably experiment. I’d let one rest & see if it continues to ripen without expecting to store it. I’d cut into the other & see if it’s edible. I’m sorry I don’t have any real experience with underripe squash.

@@arusticrenaissance I ended up cutting into one of them and roasted it in oven and it tasted great! I actually like it better than pumpkin, the only thing I don’t care for is the watery texture.

@@ceepark114 Did you roast it in the skin? I don’t have that texture issue but maybe put them on a wire rack next time? You could poke some holes in the skin, place them skin down on the wire rack & have the rack sitting on a cookie sheet (to catch the moisture). Maybe that would help? I agree, way better than pumpkin & I have a terrible time growing pumpkins here 🤷‍♀️. It makes a good pie too!

Thank you for watching!

They typically mature around 90 to 110 days after planting, depending on your growing conditions. But if you aren’t a numbers person like me, I go by the color of the skin. Someday I’ll keep a diary of exactly when to harvest each veggie… someday. When the squash is fully mature, the skin will have a deep orange or tan color. There may still be a bit of green at the bottom or even sometimes a green stripe or two so be sure to keep an eye on the orange or tan. Mine have always been a lovely orange like the one you see in the video. Additionally, the skin should be firm and hard to the touch. Another sign to look for is the drying of the stem. Once the stem is dry, your squash should be harvested it’s not being nourished anymore. Happy Growing!

does the fingernail test work on this squash? @@arusticrenaissance

@@greyfeather1183 My friend uses that technique with good results. I have never used that method. I’ve had success with squash color or dry stem.

@@greyfeather1183 I was just thinking. I think I recognize your name from Nate’s lives. If you want to DM me on my Instagram page (if you use IG). I’d be happy to send you some of my seeds for free. That way you don’t have a financial investment. Just blood, sweat & tears of a gardener 😂 I agree with Nate about helping one another. Have a great day!

That is very generous of you. I have a wonderful vine growing with several large fruit and more seeds for next year. I am trying to research so I don't take them too soon. There are only a few things left in the garden at this point and I get anxious to begin the clean up . :) You and a few others on you tube actually talk aboutharvest and I can't thank you enough for your info! @@arusticrenaissance

If you click the description I have included a link for the exact table I’m using 😀

So many ways to use a harvest! Thanks for visiting!!!

Oh no! Well, if you stop the video, it’s as the opposite side of the handle that turns the reel. Can’t miss it. Looks just like a hose connection that would be stubbed out of your home.

Literally the only part I need and not a single vid on RUclips shows the hose hookup part !

Well that is a win - win!

I hope you love it as much as we do! Happy Gardening!

Oh! They are a wonderful addition to a garden. I hope you love them as much as we do!

Believe it or not but I do nothing. When we lived in Wisconsin (zone 4) I plopped some in a pallet and they did a nice job. Things got busy so that fall & winter I never had a chance to repot or cover them. I figured “Oh well, I’ll just have to rebuy next season and start over”. The darned things came back the following spring!! So, having seen that with my own eyes, I let them go here too. Just left in the pallet. And I’ll be darned the same thing happened. They came back! Plus some had reached the ground as runners and just last week I dug those runners up and repotted them to start more pallet growers!! They are surprisingly hardy!

It’s been 2 years since this video and the wrap has held up just fine. No tears, no holes. What we are showing is an alternative to painting (which takes many cans & it scratches easily). Wrapping with plastic seen here or buying the premade wraps that are sold on Amazon are choices for those that want to explore their options. Some may want to take those 10 minutes you mention & spay the cage and all. We prefer the look of the silver & took the time to disassemble &! remove the tote. Again, an option for those that may not want to spray the entire IBC.

@@arusticrenaissance not spray, you take it off from the cage, you roll paint it. Very cheap, fast and convenient.

Plastic is better. The paint scrapes off
