Although I’m 68 years old, this is my first year growing a garden. I have chosen a container garden to eliminate the need of weeding. I lost three squash plants, all I had, two powder mildew. I have planted three new ones, I am very glad I have found this channel and have subscribed. I will be an ad watcher of your videos. I have wanted to be a gardener for many years and just now have the time and opportunity to do so. Thanks for all your information. I’ll be tuning in regularly. Located in League City, Texas just south of Houston.
Yay for your first garden!! We are in our 60's and use a combo of containers, raised beds and Greenstalk gardens. I never know what will happen, but we try our best. Good luck to you!!
HOW EXCITING!!! Welcome to all 3 of you: Jeep, Drone,Old Man (that's cute). Here is what I suggest:
Subscribe, then, click on the bell and choose the option to be notified of all uploads.
LiveStream: I livestream every Monday except holidays, 12pm PT. There you can interact and ask questions to other gardeners and/or me, or guests, etc. We have Monterey Garden and SmartPot fabric containers specialist each week too, in the chat for questions.
It's actually a great place to be. Hope to see you there -
CaliKim
Good luck to you! I’m 56 and this is my second year gardening. I don’t have a yard so all I do is container gardening. Please let us all know how it goes!
@@CaliKim29 I have a RUclips channel also where I do drone videos, mostly of the battleship Texas as she is going through her dry docking experience. I too did a live stream for about four months, but as I still work, a full-time job, everything became too much for me so I cut out the live stream.I was live streaming on Monday nights at 6:30 PM central time. I’ll be catching up with your next live stream. Thanks for the info.
May your garden be blessed and bring SO much joy to you in this beautiful era of life. What Miss Kim teaches is dependable & true and never just for clicks or show. I’m 36, a farmers daughter raised in Agriculture and I’ve been growing (and cooking what we grow) independently since I learned my ABC’s. Wishing you a garden that strengthens your body, your mind, & your soul! ❤
I need to try those grilled squash slices!
You'll love it! Do it...
I was worried about my crookneck squash only producing female flowers, but bumble bees took care of it with cross-polination. I have two zucchini, two crookneck squash, and two lemon squash growing close together. two plants in each 4x2 raiswed bed, and three ground cherries in one 4x2 raised bed. Six plants will produce an ample amount of squash for me. One of the two crookneck squash is loaded with fruit, lots of female flowers, lots of fruit. It has not less than a half dozen squash growing on it, and it grows fast. In a day or two, I'll be harvesting the first squash of the season. I have already harvested my first peppers, better early than on time. LOL. I'll replace the squiash with cauliflower and brocolli later this summer.
Amazing, Jay!! Keep on! CK
I haven't had good luck growing summer squash, but I plan to follow your tips and try again this year. Thank you!
You can do it! Just take it slow and easy, Helen, and please do keep me posted... Thank you for watching. CaliKim
Thanks for the great tips ,enjoy your garden . 😀🤗
You are so welcome and to you, as well. CK
Thank you! I've been wanting to try growing squash vertically - and just never made the effort. This took the guess work out.
Glad I could help! How have you been CeeCee? Great to see your comment! CaliKim
That's a great growing lesson. Thank you!
Yes, I will try this method!
Glad it was helpful! Do let me know, how it goes for you! CK
Can’t wait to try this!
You'll do it, you are such a good gardener, MJ.
That's what I'm growing soon in my smart post kim😊
Hey'ya Keith, sounds great! I hope all is well ! Kim
I’m going to try this! Thank you!
Hope you like it and tell us how it goes!
Wonderful tips! Thank you!
You are so welcome, Beth. Thank you for watching ! : ) CK
Great Summer Sqash Video, Kim! I'm putting my Zephyr squash on some florist trellis' I just put up.
Wonderful! Let me know how it goes! I hope you are subscribing ! Nice work! CK
Thank you for this very informative video. I have never grown squash vertically but after seeing this video I am definitely going to grow using the trellis or tomato cage support. I assume that this technique will also work with eggplant.
Glad it was helpful! And yes, you can do the same with eggplant!!! CK
I appreciate all of your comments and I am sorry that I cannot answer all of them - there are so many, I try to get to everyone but I want you to know that I have read them and appreciate them!
Great tips. I am trying to grow zucchini this year. 😊
That's awesome, Rocky! You are a regular here in the comments - keep me posted! CK
I am growing Sunburst yellow scallop squash for the first time. I have 3 plants growing in containers. My squash are producing way more male than female flowers, and the flowers don't open at the same time for easy pollination. I don't have any pollinators in my backyard, so I hand pollinate the flowers. I've only had 3 squash develop to maturity. I really like the scallop squash flavor. I am disappointed though in the productivity and probably won't grow it again next year.
Sounds great! Are you probably not growing next year because of the male/female flowers have to hit at the same time, etc. etc? I completely understand... CK
Here in the North in Alberta we’re in a cold front in the prairies so we have temperatures lowest of 2-5 degrees so it’s kind of hard to plant outdoors waiting till it’s at least 5 degrees Celcius 40F at night
oh my gosh, Sam, hang in there. CK
@@CaliKim29 Update This Thursday !!! The 23rd of May OUR SEASON BEGINS ! 😅
How do you make this trelis? What are your measurements please?
625k....Very nice work...I have subs
What planting area are you located in?
Do you plant two zucchini plants into one 15 gallon pot?
Yes. As it grows I'll leave the strongest seedling and cut the smaller ones at soil level. Good question Ian. CaliKim
Today my darling orange tabby sat on my pan squash and broke it. So I’m back to starting seeds again. 🤦🏻♀️
The neighbor's cat jumped into our garlic and - well - not good. Then it jumped into our oregano - again, not good. I love cats, but I wish that we didn't have to deal with our neighbor's cat.
I saw a video before where this guy laid a cattle panel over his veggie bed after planting the seeds, the plants grew up through square openings, and it kept cats out because they couldn't dig anywhere. I plan to try this myself.
Sorry to hear, Eff. Yep, wipe the dust off your hands and go back at it another way. Good job. Cali
This sounds interesting...good call, Beth. CK
@@CaliKim29 it seems the stem didn’t break just bent… so I’m trying to do seedling triage. :) I propped it up on a stake and direct seeded a few more into the container.
My kitty is obsessed with the containers. He loves sitting in them and rubbing up against them and batting at the seedlings. He’s so cute but dammit!
How do you keep the squash Vine boar from killing your squash? Every year mine are destroyed by them. I’ve tried so many things.😢
We dont really have that issue here in Southern Cali.
Have you used BT?
