At 51 I’m just trying gardening for the first time. I’ve never been able to keep a houseplant alive, so I’m not sure I’ll actually be able to grow anything! I’m trying tomatoes and peppers. Fingers crossed something happens!
Think positive! 😀 I know you can do it! Seriously, it's not that hard. I've had a lot of success with cherry and grape tomatoes. Larger tomatoes haven't been that great for me...
Talk to your plants, touch them and encourage them to grow. I talk to them like there a puppy.. They love it. Water at night or early in the morning before the sun hits them. You will do fine.
😆. I'm 51 also. I have had small gardens in the past. Last year my tomatoes went crazy. So this year I went all in with raised beds. There were affordable on Amazon and as you know at least for me, I'm done with weeding. That's why I did the beds. I got 2 for around $60. Best of luck to you! If anything, enjoy it. I put gardening videos on my phone when I'm out there. It helps me relax and learn a ton. Best wishes
I’m new to gardening as well! I’m 42… trying peppers and lettuce in the hot Arizona climate! Wish me luck!🍀
Girl, I identify!
No matter what you grow- learn to save seed! Great video!
Radishes are wonderful roasted in the oven also!!
We steam radishes and they are delish that way too! We have also put some in a foil pack and throw them on the grill while we cook other things.
Also, I like asparagus. It is a perennial.
Thanks for the great list of easy survival crops we could and should be growing. Be prepared everyone!! Have a wonderful weekend Jinne!
1. Lettuce- 45 to 60 days
2. Beets- 50 to 70 days, greens are edibles too, direct as soon as the ground is workable, early spring, early fall
3. Turnips- 40 to 55 days, direct sow early spring, early fall, greens are edible
4. Beans- 45 to 60 days, direct sow early spring, early fall
5. Spinach- 45 to 50 days
6. Peas- 60 days, succession plant 3 to 4 times in the season
7. Radishes- 21 to 35 days, greens are edible
8. Squash- (summer squash 60 days) (winter squash 60 to 110 days, long storage)
9. Kale- 30 days
10. Herbs- most are perennials and some will self seed
I would add:
42 day tomato variety
Sweet potatoes 3 to 4 months
Love ya, Jinne..I keep telling people to do things the old fashioned way... Unfortunately , people DO NOT want to listen!
Swiss chard is an awesome biennial. It is milder than kale and does well through Texas heat and the below freezing temps. Highly recommend you try this. Very easy from seed.
I have carried and list my pack of swiss chard for the last five weeks. I found it again today n thought must not be meant to grow. But describing it. I should like it. Thanks
Beet greens are awesome too. Sauté in strawberry olive oil,...OMG isot good.
Hi Jinne! This is a perfect video for us all. Definitely put me down for potatoes. Good carbohydrates for energy to do what we need to do. I like everything that you have mentioned here. I like most vegetables. I do prefer rutabagas to turnips. I don't dislike turnips but I really like rutabagas. Spinach is very good. I encourage people to stop putting herbicides on their lawns and then after about 2 years they could harvest their own dandelion greens. They have more vitamin A and iron than spinach and other greens but it's best to get get them before you mow, so they don't get tough. They are a little bit more bitter so add a little bit of sugar.
Radishes are delicious roasted with carrots potatoes etc.i put them in beef stew. Pot roasts stir fries. Yum
Wow, where is the swiss chard? the multiplier onion? Chard runs rings around lettuce and goes for 2 years by taking the bigger leaves as needed and gives numerous seeds the second year. I'm in zone 6a and most plants live right through the winter. Mine does not go bitter while ripening its seeds either.
And Sweet Potatoes??? Easy to grow, you can also grow them in containers. Excellent nutrition.
Good "food for thought". 😂 Thanks for reminding me of those valuable root veggies! 🤗👍❤️
Thanks, Jinne. We've been eating our spinach and lettuce for about a month now in southern NH, zone 5B.
I do an early harvest of dill then plant my bell peppers and jalapeños, and in another section I grow my spinach and then plant my tomatoes.
Great List, Jinne! Here in NW Florida, zone 8b/9a, sweet potatoes & turnips are my best, most reliable crops. I am also trying true yams & hope to finally master growing kale. All of those have the added benefit of being good for our chickens & goats. In the fall & early spring I can grow the peas, beets, spinach, lettuce & radishes. Working on growing squash & pumpkins, but those usually get eaten by the squirrels, rabbits, raccoons, opossums & armadillos.
Also in NW FL. Hey neighbor! Already warming up here enough to be too warm for some items on this list but they are the winter garden crops.
Thank you Jinne! Great information!
Nice work ! I really enjoyed all the additional stock video clips.
Thanks Jinne another good one.
Great list , THANK YOU JINNE
JINNE WHAT DO YOU PUT ON YOUR PLANTS TO KEEP BUGS & CRITTERS FROM DEVOURING YOUR PLANTS?
Thanks, Jinne! Great video!
Great video!! Thank you!❤
Nice video, Jinne! Reallly good advice. I need to try gowing radishes! My parsley came back this year, too, lol!
Also the greens are very nutritious. I use them mixed in .y other greens. Not good raw too fuzzy. Go easy can be hard on digestion if use too much. Also feed them to my chickens
Love all of these ❤
Great video, Ginnie. Have a super day
Thank you!
Great video, thanks!
Thanks, Jinnie! Great video!!
Thanks, Jinne
Ty
thanks Jinne! 😊👍
For the 1st time I’m growing carrots and beets.. I forgot about turnips and parsnips! Thank you for your videos! I usually watch on my tv!!🌸
I’m trying straight yellow squash in my 2 pots with an “A” frame linking them. My raised beds have a small variety of vegetables and fruit. Hoping for a good harvest 🪴😁
Our weather here is still getting some cool nights so will wait to set out tomatoes and peppers for another week or so. Keep an eye on your overnight temperatures so you don’t lose something tender like tomatoes to a last minute frost.
I've been working at making my garden a year-round garden. I live in west central Ohio, zone 6a, with a decent length of growing. My husband and I built a hoop house in the garden and added a frost cover on the side to pull across when needed. It was okay, but I learned some things from the experience, and I'll do better next year. Plus, I'm going to try using a cold frame as well. But you can do seed-sprouting or microgreens inside all winter for fresh veggies. And they don’t take up lots of time.
Thank you great video not fond of radish and tunrips but will try again
I have the,m all. Thank you
Good video thanks for sharing YAH bless !
Try growing Korean or Japanese radishes. They do not take longer by much, but can outweigh a rutabaga! They are great for soups and stews, and can make great salads as well. Also, radish seed pods are good to eat!.
Thank you, I learned quite a bit from your video.
We added habanero and Anaheim peppers this year. Adding spicy flavors as much as possible. First time planting yukon gold spuds.
Good afternoon you have a good day
where I'm at now I won't be able to grow some of these, I can do lettuces and some greens plus herbs. my deck faces north and is shaded nearly all the time
Mint and Lemon Balm growing great on my porch only getting first morning sun.
I do enjoy your videos but in an emergency situation it takes a lot of water when water maybe limited. We will surely have to pray for lots of rain because it’s imperative to have our own source of food.
How fast that will grow. Thanks
❤
No one EVER says that Kale tastes good.. it’s ’good for you’ whatever that means. 🤔
My hubby says the same!
Lol I love kale....trick is to let them soak in some oil first before eating....
Love kale trick is too soak a bit in oil before eating
I am a senior who lives in a senior development, with no place to plant, I started some things inside, any ideas for an indoor garden would help
Microgreens. Super easy to grow, inside, of course. The best nutrition.
@@esthersodini4472 thank you
Has anyone tried to grow lettuce and spinach in the house over winter? Would it work? Also, does anyone know if basil will reroot? I put a basil top in water today to experiment.
You can grow any kind of greens in your house if they have enough light. Also, your basil will re-root just give it enough time and make sure you add water as needed. Good luck!
I grow lettuce all year long inside in an inexpensive hydroponic unit like an aero garden. Its so easy and it works great for Swiss chard and herbs like parsley and dill also. It’s fun too.
😇👍
Jinne, thank you for your video. I have a question. Your first veggie is lettuce. I have always been told that it has very little nutrition in them. What type are you talking about?. I would love to grow some that are healthy.
Lettuce gets a bad rap because most people think of iceberg lettuce which is pretty low in nutrients. But there are tons of types of lettuce. Romaine, etc. For increased nutrition look for lettuce with color like Red Simpson, etc. Any with color have more phytonutrients.
We mostly grow leaf lettuce, you don't have to wait for the entire plant to mature to start harvesting, and it's got a good amount for vitamin A in it...
Micro greens
No asparagus, no sweet potatoes, no tomatoes....you eat your lettuce, I will eat potatoes
Turnip for what!
😇👍
