    The plant you don’t know what it is, is called yellow dock. It is a weed ( wild plant) yet I use it in cocking the same as spinach or all other greens. I use it in soups too.
    Sorrel ( is another on that looks like yellow dock) but sorrel has a sauer taste. You can use sorrel the same in salads, or soup. Happy to find you. Congratulations on your beautiful garden. I to live in Sacramento CA. Enjoy your garden.

      Ah thank you for solving the mystery! I may have to try out the weed in some cooking 🌱

    I live in Rancho Cordova & grew Brussels sprouts for the first time last spring. I started them too late, but kept them alive all summer & looked forward to a winter harvest. the stalks stayed skinny all year, but produced sprouts. (a few opened up, but not most)
    Sadly, some critter (rat or squirrel) ate all of the sprouts and leaves over a weekend. argh! next year I'll put hardware cloth cages around them.

      That’s so frustrating after caring for them so long. We have always struggled with Brussel Sprouts here. Maybe next year 😅

    Hey There!
    So I’m in Zone 9b too but in the IE…
    So I just planted 2 avocado trees late fall and I did a TON of research about them.
    #1 You have to have the right avocado trees for where you live.
    #2 Some avocado trees need another variation to cross pollinate with (which is why i planted two.)
    #3 They take a lot of patience. For the size I bought they told me not to expect avocados for probably another 2 years.
    So you might need to plant a second one (or convince a neighbor to 😉) or it’s just not the right time yet. Nature is so much fun to try to understand! LOL

    • @OurLibertyHouse
      @OurLibertyHouse  3 года назад +1

      Right! Our tree is a Mexicola. I know they take a few years to produce anything and we’re coming up on year three so I’m hopeful! I hadn’t heard anything about pollination so I’ll have to research that, thanks for the tip!!

    So excited to see someone else growing in NorCal. This is my first year attempting a garden but with our warm winters I'm making myself confused with when to plant seeds, what can I get away with planting now vs really should wait for fall (brassicas).

    • @OurLibertyHouse

      Awesome you found us! We definitely recommend following a planting guide from some local resources and depending on your garden zone. We wrote this garden blog to help people out with finding resources for beginners. Hope it helps!

      Being it’s your first year I would wait! We typically plant our Spring veggies in late Feb/early March as the soil temps right now are still too low. You might be able to get away with some cool season crops now, but with the danger of night time frost it could be challenging to keep young plants alive 🌱 (all of ours were planted last October). Good luck!!

    @Our Liberty House/ Garden,Home,DIY From your video,there's no sign of peppers& I think the type of Cauliflower are in your garden is Snowball variety,but i happen to grow a purple one in my area?. In my garden,my favorite peppers are Mad Hatter,Shishito, Cayenne,Thai Chili& finally Jalapenos.

    IDK if you are still planting and harvesting napa cabbages in this new year of 2023 or not but if you drape cheesecloth over the plant the little moth that gobbles cabbages and so on cannot lay eggs that change into the caterpillars that devour our yummy food.

    Hey! I am so glad I found you guys! I'm in 9b, too, over in Santa Rosa. Happy to see what you did in your winter garden. I'm going to be working on a fence to keep the dogs out in the next week, then will start working on a spring/summer garden. I am wondering if you have a video or some info about how you've irrigated your raised beds? Thanks so much!

    • @OurLibertyHouse
      @OurLibertyHouse  2 года назад

      Thanks for joining us! Hi 👋 I’m glad you asked, because I’ve been telling Lucas to do an irrigation video which he hasn’t done yet 😂😂 so maybe this will push him over the edge. We use drip tubing for most of our raised beds which works out really great and it’s on a timer.

    • @funkymama614
      @funkymama614 2 года назад

      @@OurLibertyHouse awesome! Thank you for your reply. I have been using drip irrigation, too, for the last couple years, but my beds have been predominantly in the ground which made it a bit easier. Last summer I experimented a bit with soaker hoses, too, which I liked. This year I want to add more beds and maybe do a combination of drip and soaker. I guess I’m just not really sure how to not be wasteful in between boxes, if that makes sense?
      Thanks, again, for taking the time to reply.

    Question, do you start your Cauliflower from seed? If so how many seeds do you put in your starter pot? And last when should you plant the Cauliflower in the ground?

    • @OurLibertyHouse
      @OurLibertyHouse  Год назад

      We usually just buy cauliflower starts from a nursery but I would just do 2 seeds per cell and cut it down to one. I plant them in October typically in the ground

    Brussel sprouts. I'm in southern California. I planted from seed in October in containers . It's maybe 3" tall. Just leaves. I guess I have not given it enough nutrition, idk. I obviously did something wrong. Should I call it quits on it? 3 inches tall since October! Any advice please

    Whats the difference in napa cabbage in taste compared to others cabbages

    • @OurLibertyHouse

      Napa tastes pretty much like all the other cabbages just grows tighter narrower leaves that are better for certain applications

    I am curious how you deal with squirrels? They are everywhere in Sac. Do they do damages to your garden? I know they slow down in the winter.

    • @OurLibertyHouse
      @OurLibertyHouse  Год назад +1

      Thankfully, the squirrels don't both our garden much. I think I've made peace with them by putting out a small squirrel feeder with dried corn. It may also help that our dog chases them out of the yard every chance she gets..
