You should throw your big garden soil, horticulture soil, whatever it's called into your row garden so that it can slowly mix in.And that would be like mulch into your dirt, and will help that dirt out
I too think raised rows would be better ..you are so right to experiment....make sure you mulch for over the winter...it will rot an nourish the soil .......,.,watch every vidios you put ....you are living my dream I love your family. Sending you all my love and many blessings❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Don’t worry about your raspberry cane plant. Take the top off and stick it in the ground. The broken plant will grow and spread no problem. Your head lettuce is doing fine. Don’t worry about it. Keep it watered and you’ll get lettuce. They’re a slower growing lettuce. Garden is looking great! Keep up the hard work.
❤ Beautiful! For the owner to show up to give you the key personally, leave the buildings clean & organized, the lawn newly cut means they loved their home but wanted to meet the person that would be its new caretaker. So no more negative feelings about how you received the property. It was meant to be yours !! It's perfect for you to prosper in all your dreams !!🎉❤
If you have an extra branch or two on your raspberry bush you can cut it and put it water let it grow roots and plant. Bunnies love strawberries. I am going to send you some ghost pepper, scorpion peppers, carolina reapers, and hot banana pepper seeds, if you like. I have mega amounts available and plant them around veggies you don't want animals getting into. Garden is coming right along !
Great job Becca, Your starting to get your garden arranged, you will figure out what does good where, and you can make changes next year!! any food out of your garden is good food!
Becca you are a dynamo, gardening, baby care and you find time to debark logs and you do it all willingly,no complaints. May God continue to bless you and your family.
The garden is looking great! I really appreciate that you talk to the camera as you are doing things. It make me, as a viewer, feel like I'm hanging out with you as you garden. I really enjoy your videos! Henry is adorable!!
Your garden is looking good. Next year it will be even better. If you eat bananas, put the peels in a bucket of water. Stir them & let set for a few days than add to garden. It's really good on when just starting seeds also. Henry is starting to babble now, so cute. 😊
Your commitment to self-sustainability and nurturing the land reflects a deep connection to nature and a genuine love for homesteading. And I am a floating village life from Vietnam
If the leaves of the lettuce is bitter then just feed to the chickens if you have any, or compost. Lettuce can be replanted by seed and you might get some. Red Simpson is the best for leaf lettuce. You are doing an amazing amount of work. So proud of you!
May I make a suggestion , don't wear your wedding ring while working the small prongs that hold the diamond on can wear off and then you will lose the set. I've lost 2 diamonds, now I check my rings for lose sets regularly.
This is great advice. I worked for a jeweler and learned to put my diamond in a safe place where even I’m doing any heavy cleaning or yard work. I have a designated hook in my pantry and another designated spot in my bedroom. ALWAYS put it in the same place(s)! Even laundry can be harsh on your ring as the setting can easily be caught in the edge of the machine.
FYI sorry if I’m giving you info you know .. asparagus takes about 3 summers to be able to harvest. They’ll come back each year less immature. I didn’t k ow that when I first planted them and I was waiting and waiting for them to come in as I would recognize them. 🤣🤣🤣 THOSE ASPARAGUS looked exactly as they should right now. I find those pretty hearty also. Hopefully you get a good harvest bc they come back annually and easy to take care of Side note. Strawberry’s. When you have a runner long enough , keep it attached to the mother plant and then like pin it to the ground so it continues to grow. If you follow what I mean. I take chopsticks or forks to do (ik you aren’t potentially able to use those). Just keep the runner attached to the mother plant and the strawberry’s will explode.
If you want to learn about gardening a few you tube channels are simple living alaska and modern homestead alaska are very good channels to watch. I realize you are a young mom and have alot on you. You are doing good.😊
Becca you are doing great! Stop over thinking things, this is your year to learn a new area and growing conditions. You have a lot going on and need to be kind to yourself!
My garden is producing so much all of a sudden. All the hard work has paid off. (Btw I got the card. TYVN. When I was in the hospital one of the kids just of placed it in a pile I did not see 🤦🏼♀️). Garden looks good girl. You’re doing great! Enjoy enjoy enjoy those times Henry naps on you. My kids are 19, 18 next month and 16.5. By a year from now all 3 will have graduated from Hs and that’s kind of scary to me. I’m not a helicopter mom but to think I won’t have any home is weird. Enjoy the time. It goes FAST!!!
The garden is doing well. You are learning so much this year, what to plant and where to plant. Agree, you may have to take down a few more tree. Put the strawberries a place where they can vine and multiply. Thought the lettuce looked fine, might be different kind from what you expected. Henry is going to be your garden helper. Understandably the cabin and wood shed are priority. I enjoyed seeing the garden progress.
The lettuces you planted are called “Iceburg” great name considering where you live Becca, they are doing well, they will heart up beautifully. They always start off like that. Good luck darling. Little Henry is gorgeous. My love to you all. ❤❤❤
❤ The difference is clear with Nik Rijavic more than 500,000 subscribers, not so much talk but fascinating to see that beautiful young family This is Nice I think😅
It is great watching all the progress on your homestead. Nice to see hard working couples and Henry is one lucky guy to be growing up there and with great hard working parents.
HAPPY TO SEE YALL ON YOUR LAND. SUGGESTION: INVEST IN A SCREENED IN TENT. IT WILL HELP KEEPNG OUT THE MOSQUITOS,FLYS, AND MOVE ROOM FOR HENRY TO BE WHILE YALL WORK OUTSIDE.
Hi becca I really enjoyed this one your garden is coming on a treat don't worry your doing a great job and little Henry is trying to make himself heard with his little bits of chattering the way he smiles at the camera lovely and care becca ❤❤❤
Keep up the good work with your gardening ideas. The little green house and the big hill with the onions on top ar great ideas! I always have the best luck with cucumbers, potatoes, squash, pumpkin, tomatoes, and chives. Lettuce is not the best for me really ever, but I still try. I also do 5 gallon buckets. I drill holes in the bottom of the buckets and it works great. Are you going to plant or have you planted fruit trees or berries? The tree bracing and fencing around all the trees is a pain is the booty, but necessary to keep animals from snacking on them.
I miss gardening so much. We moved to AZ and I can’t even grow cacti. ☹️. Miss all those fresh veggies 🥕 ❤. I had a beautiful strawberry patch too. Once you get yours established, it’ll be great ❤
i planted asparagus roots that were 5 years old when i planted them. it was about 3 more years before they were plentiful to harvest. be patient young lady and nice job.
Great beginning to your future awesome garden!! Henry is going to be a wonderful helper as he gets older. I’ve had problems keeping my puppy out of the cucumbers ended up fencing them off Better a puppy than a moose I guess
Head lettuce is a cool season vegetable that prefers sunny locations with fertile will drain soil. With a pH level between 6.0 and 7.0. And they need to be 6 to 8 in apart. Plant by seed usually do it two weeks before you put in the ground or raise bed or buckets.
Becca you should try to grow catmint it’s a natural mosquito repellant that you can just rub on your skin. Not toxic at all. Safe for animals and human of all sizes!! Garden trouble add perlite into the soil. It keeps it loose and air can get into it. Most garden centres use it for their pots. It’s the cheapest thing to use. Orchid soil is also great but very expensive. Give it a try I’m sure you will like the results. Cabins moving along fab. 🎉😂
I have heard/watched other homesteaders use a stick in the ground surrounded by rocks with two pieces of tin pie plates or lids on string at the top. It bangs together in wind to keep animals away?
Spinach is THRIVING here lol . It’s a pretty durable plant. Just an FY, I did one seed at a time last 2 years and way too little spinach was harvested. This year I put a bunch seeds together and it did much better , especially bc you need a lot of spinach to make it a side.
Talk to a gardener in your area about where to plant what. Transplanting is hard on a plant. It takes a while for any area when you first start it. Two or three weeks is nowhere near long enough to judge a garden area. Patience is important when gardening. There are some plants that thrive in hugelkulture.
If you have compost you can make a compost tea for your garden. Looks like your plant are lacking nutrients (yellow leaf) Google Compost tea or plant food we use fish guts.
There's a product that one of the other RUclips channels ( Perma Pastures farm ) sells its called Billy's Bone Sauce its for deer but might work on moose its kinda expensive check out his channel or ask him if it would work for moose, just a suggestion. Larry
I love the mound planting and double love Henry translating for us🥰 Is it possible to use the chainsaw to just kinda "buzz-cut" the bark off? Legit inquiry. I really have no idea.

Burning logs preserves the logs and it keeps from bugs infesting logs and and prevent rotting the wood out.

It helps your plants if you trim off the dead or dying leaves, especially on your lettuce.

if you have a propane torch it should burn your logs for you. probably be quicker and easier as well.
Enjoying your videos,love the content.cheers 🇨🇦
Thanks for your videos! God bless!
i planted asparagus roots that were 5 years old when i planted them. it was about 3 more years before they were plentiful to harvest. be patient young lady and nice job.
I wonder if Henry would like to be forward facing in the wrap so he can see all that you are doing when you are carrying him.
Great beginning to your future awesome garden!! Henry is going to be a wonderful helper as he gets older. I’ve had problems keeping my puppy out of the cucumbers ended up fencing them off Better a puppy than a moose I guess
Tape, it with duct tape.My son used that on his tree and at work like a charm

You need a hat with a net on it. Those darn mosquitos are vicious 😂
Awesome you have a netted hat 👏👏👏
You have to give lettuce time to do it’s thing. They looked good. Keep trying You are doing great 👍
Youre doing a great job Becca!
Great job Becca (and Levi) love your mini hothouse so creative and useful!
You need to coat them with oil after they are charred.
I have heard/watched other homesteaders use a stick in the ground surrounded by rocks with two pieces of tin pie plates or lids on string at the top. It bangs together in wind to keep animals away?
You are doing a great job in your garden. You may try loosening up the root balls on your plants when you are transplanting. Hope it helps you.

Great video.
Great video Becca! Thanks for sharing your garden.
Hi from Colorado Springs 😀 might want to start saving seeds like tomato and peppers I got 30 seeds from one pepper.Enjoy you're channel.

Is it possible to use the chainsaw to just kinda "buzz-cut" the bark off? Legit inquiry. I really have no idea.
You mentioned you had checked the Ph. How about nitrogen, potassium, phosphorous and any other nutrient your plants may need?
If you put that game camera down that low your dog will pee on it! LOL
Will the winter frost in the ground affect the posts?
As long as you pronounce the word with confidence people around you will think you have it right and they had a wrong 🤷🏼♀️👍🏻
🙋♀️❤️
♥️👍
Tomatoes and Peppers do not like each other is what I meant to say.
Tomatoes do not like each other. Keep them away from each other.
😂 you clearly have internet 😮 you’re posting videos on RUclips.
At the time we went to Levi's parents to get videos posted. We do have starlink now! But a 5 mile drive for a Google search is a no go for me. 😊
Love you guys. You have way too much shade for a healthy garden. Cut down some more trees. Just my 2…😅
