Just a quick comment about the dates to maturity on seed packets. These estimates are based on spring planting and growing through the height of spring and summer. When planting succession crops for fall harvest, you have to add a couple of weeks to account for the shorter days of fall growing. Johnny's Seeds has an interactive succession planting spreadsheet that will calculate your fall sewn crops that takes this into consideration. It's free and very easy to use.
Where you are depends greatly too! My August planting in Western Washington was completely different than my August garden here in the hill country of Central Texas, not just because of first frost. It's still too hot to plant peas! 😭😅
I followed you when I lived in Florida but never planted anything. Now I live in Indiana so it's more usable because my zone is not the same but closer to yours. But I still haven't planted. Left over nonsense from the army gets me in moods. Hopefully I'll get stuff together for next year
Fellow Hoosier here & previous Floridian. This is my 1st yr trying to grow. Every yr I think I've missed the opportunity because everyone is pulling up their gardens by this time, but I've been in couraged to see what I can still grow before winter. I want to encourage u to plant a couple things this wk. I've been dealing w some mental hardships. I've found caring for my plants really to be helpful for my mental health. I wasn't sure if my plants would survive &/or produce anything, but they (well some of them) are starting to look better, so we'll see. Best of luck to you. *Mental Health isn't Spoken About Enough* ... ♥️
If I say this I realize it might not be helpful. But I will say 1st there's still time to plant fall gardens and even late summer ones and 2nd if you do manage to get a little bit of those started you might find it very relaxing; and help you kind of meditate through whatever your troubles are.💖
Hi Michael, I am an Airforce vet . Try to let the army moods change into a gardening mood. It is so relaxing and rewarding. I have been doing it for several years here in Canada. The garden doesn't always produce, but gets better every year. This guy James has so many great tips and there are many more as well. Remember...a poor harvest turns into great compost for next year!
I do hope you feel better. Gardening is very meditative. My advice is start small. Very small. Buy a few starter plants at a big box store next spring. If you want to be really encouraged plant radishes! They're superfast and cold hardy for the first crop in spring.
If you have a fence like i do, you can get some netting from the dollar store and tack/nail it to the fence, the full height of the fence and plant peas along the bottom of the fence - the peas will grab onto and climb right up the netting (sometimes you need to help them when their little tendrils first come out but after that they go on their own). grab a package of innoculant if you can still find it, soak the peas overnight, dust with the innoculant and make 1" deep holes an inch or 2 apart and drop those bad boys in the holes. Super easy and still time to get some peas at least!
We're in the Highlands of Scotland but this video contains so much top notch advice a LOT of it still entirely applies to us here. Thank you for your enthusiasm and your knowledge. Great stuff! 👍 🏴 😁 🐂
God bless u in Scotland... knew he was going to talk about planting carrots when the words Tuck's all-time favourite veg tumbled out of his mouth... love from Vancouver Island, BC, 1/2 scot
You don't know the half of it. The little boss is quite the taskmaster. I think all the hearts in the comments for him are starting to go to his head. 👑🐕
@@jamesprigioni what a good life for Tuck too. Living his life in such biodiversity can only give him the healthiest and longest life possible. Those littles live longer to begin with. We had a toy fox terrier that lived to see 21 years old. She was an old girl and died peacefully in her sleep of old age, cuddled up with her human. We now have a toy Chihuahua, named Toby and a Hungarian Vizsla named Ranger. He's a rescue shelter dog from Mississippi. We were his FOURTH home when he got to us, at 6 to 8 months old. He was mistreated and to help him cope with that has been one of the greater challenges with him, if you know the breed you will know exactly what I'm talking about. Hungarian Vizslas are the ultimate velcro dogs whom are happy to be with their human 24/7. Literally. They are love bugs that LOVE to cuddle and they are clingy and needy. They go on point and are classified as a hunting/sporting breed, but they wouldn't actually hurt a fly and make terrible guard dogs. They are a very, very, very, very, very, very high strung energetic active distractable anxiety fueled breed that won't attack a thing. They won't defend you and are more inclined to run from scary situations and loud noises in spite of being considered a large breed. They are the one hunting breed that doubles well as a house dog too. They are the most neurotic breed I've ever known and they are notorious chewers. He's ripped apart every single toy I've ever bought him and I mean annihilation. He's a good boy, but it takes a special patient soul to have a Hungarian Vizsla. They are not a good breed for beginning dog owners and they are certainly NOT meant for everyone. I didn't realize what I was in for when I first got him and I remember being completely exhausted by the end of the day, unsure if I could handle this wild, loud, and hairy beast. I didn't even know his breed then.
Hey James, love little ❤ Tuck ❤ ! He was sitting at your feet. His ears were perked up and listened to every word you were saying. Thank you for the info!! 😊
James. The inspiration you give me and the way you love the world and how you live Tuck. And your loyal fans. We love you dearly . Thanks for everything you bring to this world ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄 Tuck the boss James the 👑
I totally love seeing Tuck on your videos. I have a yorkie/Chinese crested 10lb boy. He follows me all around the garden and watches my chickens. I can't get him to eat veggies but he cries if I don't take him every where I go. He's helped me get through C19 which I caught last August.
Every video James and Tuck produce has a positive impact on either the current state of my garden but has creates so many ideas for the next season and the next year, as always thanks for the great work! ❤❤❤❤ for Tuck!
Thanks. Now that my tomatoes are gone, I want to keep the garden growing. (I don’t know if you’ve mentioned them, but the best tasting tomato ever is Cherokee Purple!). I’m really looking forward to growing Chinese vegetables because I love making Chinese food. I love seeing Tuck. He’s such a cutie, and it’s amazing watching him dig up his own carrots and eat them. What a great little buddy.
I also love Cherokee Purple tomatoes. I’m in Zone 7 and the heat and humidity this growing season 2022 made them start cracking while still green on the tops this year. I grew them last year and always save the seeds. My tomatoes were hit with everything this year from a White Fly attack, scorching sun and now blight.
My dog loves carrots also!! I’m new here to this channel, and I didn’t know he was talking about his little cutie, till the end! Wonder what it is about carrots that some dogs like??
@@fancythat5136 I’m somewhere between Zones 9-10 (Southern CA), and we had a bit of trouble with the tomatoes cracking, too, but not while they were still green. Sorry you had that problem. One thing I heard in another video to prevent tomatoes from cracking or splitting is to cut down a fair amount on watering them in the last month or so. It seemed to help a lot, but since yours were still green, I don’t know what you could do for that. Apparently, tougher-skinned tomatoes, like Roma and other tomatoes good for canning, don’t crack as easily. Yes, I’ve been saving seeds like a mad person this year, too, especially the Cherokee Purples. We grew ours in a high raised bed and built a structure around it from PVC (narrow enough to bend) and covered it with 1/2” netting to keep a lot of stuff out (esp. squirrels, rabbits, rats & birds), but we did get some worms. It was so frustrating to see a beautiful, fully red tomato to only turn it around and see that the whole back half was eaten off. Next year, I’m going to plant a bunch of marigolds and garlic in between the tomatoes to, hopefully, keep some of the insects & such off them off them. Good luck next year!
@@sandrabulluck1896 Animals are so funny in the things they will eat. I used to have a cat that would happily eat a tiny bit of sauerkraut! I wouldn’t allow him much because I’m sure it’s not that great for an animal, but it was hysterical to watch.
Thanks for the tip on soaking the peas! I've never grown a fall garden before and I'm excited to try some of these in my Utah garden. The Almanac says I have until October 26th.
Thanks James and Tuck. I haven't really tried fall gardening before. This is the year I'm going to do it. Planted beets a few days ago. I'll put in carrots this week and some lettuce soon.
As always great information! Your knowledge is helping me to learn and grow. And then I hope to take my new knowledge and put it to use in my “new” garden. Tuck, you work so hard! What a joy you are💕🌸❤️. Many thanks to you both.
I love your sweet little Tuck pup 😍. 3 months ago at the end of April I just lost my own precious beloved little guy to a terrible disease despite hospitalization, blood transfusions & specialist treatment we still lost him... {his photo is next to my comment}......he is sorely missed. Watching you and Tuck together is bittersweet because I miss my own little boy😭.
Watched a British vid ( they know their peas ! ) he started them in sand in a rain spout , with a opened end , all he did after the peas etc started growing well he slid the plants and all into a trench , it did not harm the tender shoots etc ! The sand allows great root development, I put a bit of soil etc in it
I love your channel, garden your tenth enthusiasm, Inspiration and knowledge that you so freely share with all of us gardeners. I only have one request or maybe a question where is Tucks garden merchandise. Would love to see Tuck on some items. Your garden is beautiful and your and Tuck are so wonderful together. Happy gardening God bless you both and THANK YOU!!🐾🐾🐶❣️🥒🍅🍏🍐🍇🍓🥕🥬🧅🍆❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
I started all my Asian greens. I'm in South Jersey. Mizuna (regular and pink), Arugula, radish, Spinach, Bok Choy (tiny and purple lady), Chijimsai, Kohlrabi, and a Wasabi Radish. I planted last week and 75% of the seeds have already sprouted. Just waiting on the giant radish. to sprout.
Swiss chard is the unsung hero of greens for anyone living in the heat, I really like multisowing it like Charles Dowding does, it does so much better for me, they seem to merge into a big semishrub that produces like crazy and takes up roughly the same space. And I direct sow that way too, its so hardy.
I like seeing a fellow Jersey gardener. Just wish i was home more often to keep my garden weed free. Sometimes i'm not home during daylight hours for two weeks at a time. Love seeing Tuck. My German shepherd loves the garden but digs everything up.
I’m in Albany NY. You inspired me to join the community garden and I want to say thank you. I love you videos. I planted stuff all over with a scattered mind I did get lettuce and white squash and some tomatoes.
Catching up on videos, thank you James. It’s been raining here (NC) almost everyday…making it challenging to be in my garden; you and Tuck are my inspiration ❤🐕🙏🏼
If you use floating row covers or plastic hoops you can protect against early frosts and grow even longer! First few frosts usually only nip the ends of of the leafy greens. Usually you need 3 or 4 hours of constant temps below or around 28° F to be killing.
Absolutely LOVE Tucker! He behaves just like my Yorkie did. I miss him so much. I look forward to watching your videos because of Tucker. Please make sure, he is in all of your videos. And I want to see more of him. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us and Tucker. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗 For Tucker, your handsome boy.
Thanks James! We have just planted more beets, carrots, lettuce and radishes and are trying some more bush beans also in Northern Illinois. ❤️❤️❤️ to Tuck!
James I had a house in Little Egg Harbor and the growing season always lasted longer and i thank full for that! I love watching your channel with you and little Tuck!!
James, you have got to try Brussle Sprout greens they are great and it doesnt effect production as long as you leave a 3-4 large leaves at the top. Also Cabbage is great when you cut the oldest leaves while they grow (assuming you don't mind not getting a head at the end).
Thanks for the closeup of the tomato supports/string thing a show or 2 back - I did not have anything to attach the string to BUT I have these stakes that had indents on the tops, so I put string thru those and down both sides of the stakes and zip tied the string as tight as I could to the stakes. Not ideal but so far it's working, plants are still uprght and my first tomatoes are finally appearing. Might need to McGyver some more once they start getting weighty, we'll see but at least for now they are safe from the slugs!
I live in California. The information you provided is still very helpful, in particular the part about how to prepare the seeds and the tricks to shield the seeds. Thank you!
I ate a huge bowl of multi colored beets for dinner last night. so yummy. Today I'll saute the greens with homegrown garlic, avacado oil and home grown onions and serve it over rice and beens. YUMMY! Blessings, julie
I am a new gardener. I planted some tomatoes and some sort of blight took them. I got a few San Marzanos and 1 Rose of the Bern. My cucumbers are bearing like crazy. Thanks for all the knowledge, you and Tuck have taught me so much!!
❤️❤️❤️ Hi Tuck, you're a cutie. Thank for all your good advice. I'm am starting my fall garden soon, I'm in zone 5b. I still have bok choy growing from my spring crop and it is still delicious. I love all lettuces and spinach, thanks for the advice on when to start it.
Neat trick is to plant your peas and cucumber in front or with your tomatos as they'll have the support from the tomato plants. I've done it the last couple of years and it increased my harvest yield!
Love that channel bro. I planted 60 lettuces this weekend. 6 different kinds 10 of each. Also 60 short sweet carrots and 60 parsinian carrots. Hoping for the best. Keep sending that knowledge our way
You wouldn't believe our tomatoes being so tall and lot's if fruit. We put fish under each one then we planted a area with no fish those plants didn't do well. But we thank you on your idea we also have our peppers in front and were loaded with them. Best garden ever thanks.
Do a 'V' neck next time around on the shirts! Also, put on it "James & Tuck, we out" or "Let's Go!" Or even "Let's Grow!" I'd buy one or two or more of those!
YT Skills: Your camera frame movement is much better than your older videos. Good work man. So much more natural than 10 cuts of you walking towards the camera; I appreciate all the work you've put into improving your content over the years.
You are very young man and I’m learning whole lot from you how to be good gardener, keep up the good work young man I was born in the city and grew up in the city but I always had love country life style and country place.
living in zone 9a is about the best thing going for me up here in CA. garden of eden type weather in the bay area. wish it wasn't such a hell hole, but I grow year round peas, beats, onions, and garlic. my artichoke and most of my Cucurbits and peppers grow until late November;. gets dark early and cold at night and breeds bacteria and spores uncontrollably at that point. but thanks for your videos. i learn a lot and you still have the best harvest of anyone I've ever seen homesteading the garden. incredible job man.

Thanks for all the knowledge you bring to us growers. Much appreciated… Tuck you are awesome take care bud.
James, you have got to try Brussle Sprout greens they are great and it doesnt effect production as long as you leave a 3-4 large leaves at the top. Also Cabbage is great when you cut the oldest leaves while they grow (assuming you don't mind not getting a head at the end).
Thanks for the closeup of the tomato supports/string thing a show or 2 back - I did not have anything to attach the string to BUT I have these stakes that had indents on the tops, so I put string thru those and down both sides of the stakes and zip tied the string as tight as I could to the stakes. Not ideal but so far it's working, plants are still uprght and my first tomatoes are finally appearing. Might need to McGyver some more once they start getting weighty, we'll see but at least for now they are safe from the slugs!
Let’s Gooo!!! ❤️
Thank you James and Tuck for your advice and guidance. Tuck is so adorable and I wish I could give him a treat myself.
James you and Tuck are my garden inspiration! Much love to our boss, Tuck. 💓💞❤️😍🤩🌝🌞
I live in California. The information you provided is still very helpful, in particular the part about how to prepare the seeds and the tricks to shield the seeds. Thank you!
I ate a huge bowl of multi colored beets for dinner last night. so yummy. Today I'll saute the greens with homegrown garlic, avacado oil and home grown onions and serve it over rice and beens. YUMMY!
Blessings, julie
James you should do a Q&A!!!! We want to know more about you
bro you bring the energy everytime
💚💚💚 to Tuck for planting cucumbers! 🐶
I’m in zone 10a I rarely even get frost where I’m at easy to grow basically anything all year long here in San Diego
Lucky lucky
I am a new gardener. I planted some tomatoes and some sort of blight took them. I got a few San Marzanos and 1 Rose of the Bern. My cucumbers are bearing like crazy. Thanks for all the knowledge, you and Tuck have taught me so much!!
❤️❤️❤️ Hi Tuck, you're a cutie. Thank for all your good advice. I'm am starting my fall garden soon, I'm in zone 5b. I still have bok choy growing from my spring crop and it is still delicious. I love all lettuces and spinach, thanks for the advice on when to start it.
I always love seeing Tuck in the garden 💚💚💚
Good info on Spinach. Planting some soon. Thanks
❤️♥️❤️♥️. We are starting seeds INDOORS and fertilizing our beds. THE HEAT is still so much here in Texas.
Your backyard is insane! You have put in so much work !
Neat trick is to plant your peas and cucumber in front or with your tomatos as they'll have the support from the tomato plants. I've done it the last couple of years and it increased my harvest yield!
I look sooo forward to your videos. Thank you for making them!!
Thank you very much for your advice. This is my first year to try to grow a garden so it is definitely a learning experience. Love 💕 seeing 👀 Tucker 🐕

Love that channel bro. I planted 60 lettuces this weekend. 6 different kinds 10 of each. Also 60 short sweet carrots and 60 parsinian carrots. Hoping for the best. Keep sending that knowledge our way
Thank you, you’re food Forrest it’s amazing, especially because of your little boss, Tucker, he’s adorable.
Good evening 👋
Sorrel?? Awesome! I am excited 😛 to get this in the ground.
Went out and bought some pea, radish and carrot seeds today for my small urban garden. Thanks for the tips!
Yes sir, great information. Thank you for being an inspiration.
I am not in the same zone as you but I have learned a great deal from watching your videos and am motivated to continue on my journey. Thank you 🙏🏽.
Its always great to see you and Tuck out in the garden!
You wouldn't believe our tomatoes being so tall and lot's if fruit. We put fish under each one then we planted a area with no fish those plants didn't do well. But we thank you on your idea we also have our peppers in front and were loaded with them. Best garden ever thanks.
Do a 'V' neck next time around on the shirts! Also, put on it "James & Tuck, we out" or "Let's Go!" Or even "Let's Grow!" I'd buy one or two or more of those!
YT Skills: Your camera frame movement is much better than your older videos. Good work man. So much more natural than 10 cuts of you walking towards the camera; I appreciate all the work you've put into improving your content over the years.
I love your show . … and Tuck is too cute ❤️❤️❤️❤️

🌺👍🏼thank you so much for all your tips James ! I always follow what you plant and when you plant because I’m zone 7a too and I love your garden !
Excellent content James and Tuck. Many hearts ♥️ ♥️♥️♥️♥️ to you all.
Burlap is great to cover tuff to germinate seeds and allows light. Be careful when removing as seedlings can grow through the fabric.
We really enjoy watching you and tuck get the garden going. Appreciate all the updates along the line 🤗👍👍
You are very young man and I’m learning whole lot from you how to be good gardener, keep up the good work young man I was born in the city and grew up in the city but I always had love country life style and country place.
Tuck is the best. Sending a hug to “the boss” 💗💗💗💗
living in zone 9a is about the best thing going for me up here in CA. garden of eden type weather in the bay area. wish it wasn't such a hell hole, but I grow year round peas, beats, onions, and garlic. my artichoke and most of my Cucurbits and peppers grow until late November;. gets dark early and cold at night and breeds bacteria and spores uncontrollably at that point. but thanks for your videos. i learn a lot and you still have the best harvest of anyone I've ever seen homesteading the garden. incredible job man.
I love purple lady bok choy!!!! So good!I also love the tiny bok choy! They're great for stir fry!
7:20 I put all my seeds in the freezer, they germinate super fast. I can get cucumber sprouts in 2 days.
Timely video I just planted pea seeds, thanks so much!
Love the videos I’ve got a lot to harvest still😅
Haha! Thanks Aydin!
Wow , wow , southeast texas here and our frost date is unknown 😂 but even there it's unpredictable. Good to know . Awesome information! God bless!
thanks for the inspiration !
