Our summer and winter squash are the opposite of yours (zone 3, 99 days between frost dates). We direct seeding the summer squash this year, some in pots. We have a couple of green zucchini and one Goldy zucchini that sprouted, but are still really small. It took two sowings for a Magda to shoe up. Two sowings of White Scallop patty pans in the pot, and nothing, but a third sowing in the main garden had a couple finally germinate. We did a third sowing of Magda in the same bed; nothing. There was space, so we planted G-Star patty pans, and got a 100% germination rate!
For the winter squash, we got the Wild Bunch mix from Veseys (using your coupon code, of course. ;-) ) and started them indoors, with the pre-germination method. Got a 100% germination rate! They got transplanted as quickly as we could get a bed ready. They stagnated for quite a while, then suddenly exploded in growth and are now just huge! We even have some pretty large squash developing.
For the fencing around the raspberries, you might want to pick a pool noodle or two. Slice them on one side, lengthwise, and put it over the top of the wire.
Or you can get the pipe insulation that's already cut along one side.
That's a good idea!
Thank you this beautiful early saturday morning musical tour
What a gorgeous tour in the beautiful morning sunlight. I am always excited and jealous watching your garden tours😊 but I've made many changes based on your videos and as a result, tremendous progress. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge. Your beds look wonderful.
Thank you so much!
Thank you for this, Greg. I am in the Valley and have been struggling with my carrots as well. Last year we moved here from Ontario in May and still managed to get a reasonable garden. Of course last year we had so much rain in June!! I am trying a few different plants as I have added 2 more raised beds to my initial 2. I also have a ton of grow bags (Dollarama)which are doing so well. I should add that I am 77 and this is my first foray into veggie growing. Thank you for all that you do and all the information you impart.
Wow at 77 that's impressive.
Great video and your gardens look amazing! Two questions, what type/kind of garden mulch do you use? And secondly how do you prepare your gardens with the stones surrounding them? Thanks in advance.
Love your set up. Pond would encourage dragonflies to help with mosquitos. I don't have a pond but for some reason there's quite a few dragonflies. 🤔 Thanks for showing what to look for in the size of branches. I thought the big pear tree branches were a sign of health but Ontario Canada gets a lot of snow with the possibility of broken branches. Going to get a local arborist to check out my trees for sure . Great video.
last year I had zuchinni late June....this year haven't had any yet,but do have a couple of yellow zuchinnis close to being ready....garden is just different this year....had to replant lots ...our weather was cool and damp late June and then whammo....high heat.
I've always had trouble direct sowing parsley. I also have low success with direct-sown basil, but better than parsley.
Have you tried root parsley? It's a good alternative to parsley, and you get to eat the root.
My pepper plants have been smaller than normal this year and I don’t know why. I grow Carmen peppers every year and they are usually great. Sadly all varieties I’m growing this year have small plants.
Beautiful. Love how well your pond is doing!
Thank you!
@@maritimegardening4887 yes, lovely to see those happy fish
Thanks for the tour. I'm glad things are working out well.
Beautiful video to watch this morning
Thanks, great job with your garden.
Your garden looks amazing!
Beautiful garden and lovely intro. Thanks Greg 🌟
So nice of you
Wow, wow, wow! You are thriving. 😊
Very!
Your garden looks beautiful Greg!😊
Thank you kindly
Looks like you're having a good season. It's busy for me right now with a lot of big harvests going on and bed prepping for my fall and winter garden. At least the crazy heat down here has let up for the moment. Good luck with those peppers. I've grown Carmen before and they're pretty good.
Thanks Frank
Norland potatoes are only 60 days to maturity anyway. Probably time for them to be dying back.
I saw two goldfish there!
There's about a dozen big ones, and they had babies so there's even much.
If you use crushed seashells instead of timber logs, there will be no slugs and snails. They love to hide underneath the logs but can't survive in seashells.
Excellent... now where can I get a truckload of that?
My garden is also doing great! Except for peas-go figure. Perhaps I need to enrich the soil there. Everything else seems early for me: beans, zucchini, potatoes. Cucumbers took a long time to get going but they are loving this heat. The tomato patch is a jungle. I have a nice bed of carrots and beets. All my salad greens are pretty much finished, but we will be on to other things.
I’m going to clear out my cold frame and try for a fall garden-wish me luck!
PS I’ve ordered several times from Vesey’s with your promo code. I love the free shipping and they are prompt in sending things out.
Thanks Dave!
Looking good. I am having a hard time hearing your voice on this one. Maybe AC beside me if no others having issues but thought worth mentioning. Thanks for sharing
Maybe turn the volume up? Sorry - but the volume is ok as far as I can tell.
Looks great!
Thanks!
I give up on strawberries and blueberries. Slugs and birds keep getting them.
You need fine nets
27:48 Will the lovage self seed?
I suppose it would - I don't see why not - but you can also just divide up the roots - like with rhubarb
