I’m in SW Florida , I’ve been growing through the summer for many years. I let everything go to seed so it has slowly become better climatized to south Florida.
From October until May I grow the traditional central/northern European vegetables.
In mid march to April I start my seeds for the summer. I grow a lot of red malabar spinach. This plant thrives in the heat, sun and wet. Never any problems with aphids, powdery mildew or cabbage moths. Zero bug problems.
I grow Georgia southern collards all year round. Very little pest issues. Occasionally I will get cabbage moth eggs on them. I check my plants twice a day so rarely do they ever hatch. More often I get ants that like to bring in aphides to farm some or the more tender shoots. I just use my finger to wipe them away. Collards will become slow growing in may until November.
Purple Tree collards are same as the collards above except they are slower to grow,
Perpetual spinach, this is a magnet for cabbage moths as the leaves are very tender, so I grow this inside my pool cage. It grows well in the heat, I keep it in partial shade.
Celery I grow year round mostly as a herb. Nothing seams to bother it.
Dill I grow year round, you need a well established plant in partial shade to make through the summer, bugs don’t bother it.
Cuban oregano, fantastic plant, the honeybees love it when it flowers, it flowers for many months. Never any pest issues. It will takeover whatever you put it in. The flavor is a strong oregano flavor.
Garlic chives, grows as fast as grass, if not faster, spectacular flavor. No pest ever.
Beans, this is my own bean cross from Pinto and some other bean. I generally pick the leaves to eat starting from the bottom up. The leaves taste like beans. If I leave the leaves on, they almost always get powdery mildew. So I try to keep them thinned out. I eat the pods young when they are tender and let everything dry on the vine in mid august through October for seed and hard beans.
Egyptian spinach, I grow this everywhere. I eat the leaves fullsuze and tge pods I cook up when they are young. If you like okra, you will like the pods . This plant doesn’t like to have wet leaves, so it will get powdery mildew in the rainy season. It will die back below 60f. It does like the heat
Peppers… I’m a dedicated pepper head, I eat hot and super hot peppers with every meal, and I add them to my water, beer and scotch.
Tabasco, this is my main pepper. It can be used for anything. I have 1 7 foot plant the produces a few thousand peppers ever year. Its a very attractive plant that always has, green, orange and red peppers on it.the heat is more of a boiling heat,
Cayenne, this is my fav pepper for stir frys, its a nice even heat and great flavor. The red peppers you see in a pizzeria are usually Cayenne peppers.
Habanero peppers, this is the beginning of sup hots, it has a great unique fruity flavor and high heat. This is my favorite pepper for soups. I have limited room to grow and these plants dont produce many peppers, so I treasure them.
Serrano pepper, great mild pepper with a nice fruity flavor. I snack on these by taking tiny bits, it helps kill my cravings for bad snacks.
Anaheim pepper, same as sarrano, but these are also great to stuff. If you find the heat is a little to much, you can core the pepper and wash it out with a natural soap ( rinse well with water).
White Thai, when I want a snack with more of a kick. The heat dissipates fairy quick in the mouth.
My own super hot cross, this is cross between a reaper and a ghost pepper. I grow 2 of these plants, they are fairy small plants. I use about 1/3 of a pepper for a chilly, soup or stew meal. I’m guessing its about 4 times hotter than a habanero 1million + scollviles. 1 pepper is enough to make a gallon of hot sauce.
Carolina reaper, for when I get a craving for endorphin rush… bc these causes some real pain at first.
Bell peppers, California wonder or small sweet bells. These wont produce much in the summer and will struggle a lot.
All peppers are meant to grow in the heat, around 85f, above that they will slow down. The humidity and rain in Florida will cause them to struggle in the summer months, getting powdery mildew and the ants love to farm them with aphids. But they will still produce fruit all year round. In the fall I cut them back to get new more productive growth. They will struggle in the winter (January ) below 60f, so I cut them back again at the end of February if they look too raggedy.
I live in an hoa with no garden beds allowed, so everting is grown in containers. I would grow potatoes and sweet potatoes if I had more room.
100% of the greens I eat every day come from garden. I don’t use any chemicals for bugs, mostly a mist spray from the hose for aphids and powdery mildew. Cabbage moths generally don’t hatch or if they do I just hand pick them. Once in a while I will get scales on my ornamentals, brought in by ants, I use a mix of 10% rubbing alcohol, 10%neem oil, 10% natural soap and 70% water to kill the off. I make my own compost from my oak tree leaves, palm leave ( cut up), garden waste and kitchen scraps in 3 80 gallon leave bags. This is enough to never need any fertilizers. I keep the top of my containers covered with oak leaves… this helps keep the soil cooler.
Thank you for your info
@@quiltedladibug1 you’re welcome :)
Helpful info. Thanks!
In Florida 2019 a statute was passed so that gardens could not be prohibited :-) :-)
Thank you!!
If you like ginger, and turmeric they love the summer. If you have squirrels, they love them too! I just buy a few organic roots and poke em in. They also will be happier in partial shade.
LOL! You kill me Sue! The squirrels 🐿! I'm sold! I'm going to try ginger and tumeric. It may be a bit too sunny but it is worth the try for right there!
Was going to suggest Ginger & Turmeric as well. I cook with both and they can be grated and frozen so don’t go to waste.
Ginger definitely prefers shade. The ones I have growing that get some direct sun are sunburned. The ones in full shade are lush and green. Turmeric prefers partial sun. The ones I have in full shade are all leaning towards the sun. Lol the ones in partial sun are fat and happy. 😉
This is going to be a fun summer!!! City of Tampa dweller here.
Last year I joined the Urban Harvest’s seed club and started 3 Puerto Rican black beans from seed in a 20 gal grow bag. They broke my trellis 😂 and gave me two pounds of dry beans with zero effort. Bush cucumbers in grow bags. I’m also trying luffa this year on my back fence with tons of in ground okra (Burmese, Clemson spineless, Bowling Red). My neighbor said to do peanuts so that plus cow peas in one bed. I’m trying watermelon in a 20 gal bag with a 6’ Titan tower plus two sprawling plants. My Home Depot peppers (Cubanelle, orange and yellow lunchbox) are hanging in there but I’m not impressed. Egyptian spinach seedlings from last years seed is starting strong. My titan squash tunnel bed has Tahitian squash (from the UH seed club), yard long beans, and the PR black beans. Another in ground bed has Thai soldier beans, bronze fennel, and a bunch of volunteer pumpkin/squash mystery plants that survived my compost bin. 😂 Everglades tomato babies are growing in pots in full sun. A bunch of grow bags in the partial shade: ginger, galangal, parsley, cilantro, NZ spinach, sissoo/Brazilian spinach, perpetual chard, kitchen scrap green onions. And then a starting pollinator garden with plants from the Little Red Wagon native nursery and wildflower babies from seeds sourced from Whitwam organics in Tampa. Asian Garden 2 Table is in St Pete and has heat tolerant veggies for sale. Whew!!!!!!
I planted Okra and was so surprised that it started putting out pods when they were barely two feet tall! Apparently that's normal, but it's all new to me. Harvesting pods every other day now. That's wild!
Here in Fort White we have unusual temperature variations. We are one of the hottest areas of Florida during a summer day, but we are probably the coolest area at night. Lately, we have been warmer than Miami by several degrees during the day and much cooler than Miami at night. Yes, our winters are a little more chilly than the coastal and southern Florida areas, but our advantage is the wonderful cool nights and fresh air of the Santa Fe River basin. I am excited to see how long I can extend the growing season by growing in partial shade and afternoon shade so that the extremes of July and August aren't as bad as you would expect. Fort White is a special place. We are home to Itchetucknee Springs and just a couple miles from world famous Ginnie Springs.
There is a neighborhood called Hollingsworth Bluff on the Santa Fe River and I am lucky to have a home in this lovely community. Everyone should tube the Itchetucknee River at least once.
I love The Urban Harvest! It's awesome watching both of your channels, because you have such different approaches and styles. I've learned a lot from each of you, and it's helping me figure out what my gardening style will be. :)
Thanks so much! And I'm so happy that you like us both! And I agree! You have to find what works for you... there are SO MANY right ways to do this! You got this zelavie!
Dual subscriber here. I’m basically relying on you and the urban harvest to help me grow my first garden. I haven’t killed anything yet so I think I’m off to a good start, LOL! Thanks for this video! ❤
Those Murasaki purple sweet potatoes are so sweet, like candy, I love 'em.
Im from central Florida and just recently found your channel and have been binge watching your videos! Ive been so inspired and bought a banana plant and orange tree. I also planted sweet potatoes, bell peppers, and spinach yesterday. I also finally touched my compost that I've been building since August and covered some other plants. I am slowly following your garden ways.
So happy to have found this channel. I've learned so much about gardening in Florida this past year. I owe you for any of the successes I've had gardening this year. Thanks for that. You've really helped me make this gardening year turn out well.
I'm in South Florida. It's my first successful gardening year after eight years of being here. Not a lot of success but some. The first few years I tried gardening like I was still up north. Last year, I started checking out Florida gardeners to see what I was doing wrong. Turned out a lot! I found you (Wild Floridian) and The Urban Harvest last year. Everything I've learned from the two of you has been a game changer for me this year.
I started planting late in February, but most of the things I've tried this year have been successful. I did have a terrible time with tomato hornworm caterpillars though. The decimated almost all my tomato plants. Strangely enough, they left my cherry tomatoes and my Sunrise Sauce tomatoes alone. Those ended up being my biggest harvests in tomatoes while I was lucky if I managed to get three of the big slicer tomatoes from two of the plants out of all the ones I planted this past spring. I love tomatoes so it was a little disappointing, but I did end up with a new favorite roma type tomato because those Sunrise Sauce tomatoes were absolutely fabulous. I don't know why I never tried growing orange tomatoes before. I'm definitely going to be expanding my tomato choices in the future.
This month, I've already planted my sweet potato slips, two different varieties. My pablano peppers are still going strong so far. I've been getting peppers since March. I've harvested so many peppers from that plant, I'm seriously impressed. My first time growing those. I still have hot peppers going strong so far. My bell pepper plant didn't do well this spring at all. I'll have to try that again in the fall as it's my husband's favorite pepper. And my kitchen herbs with the exception of the parsley still look really good. I love kitchen herbs! I haven't tried medicinal herbs yet, but I will be planting some of those this fall.
Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you for everything you've taught me about gardening in Florida.
Elise (Urban Harvest) offers Thai Red Roselle in her Seed Shop. I've had pretty good luck with her seeds and live plants (except for NZ Spinach, no fault of Elise's, it is just finicky to germinate). Both of you are so much FUN!
yes, i havent gotten my n z spinach to germinate.
I love Elise's seed shop. I have white eggplant that is prolific right now and loves either shade or sun. Everglades and other sundry tomatoes are still doing well. This has been my best year!!
Just planted my sweet potato slips after watching a few of your videos. I'm so excied!
If we don't get rain in citrus county I'm going back to New York.
Longevity spinach? I'm not sure if I've seen it on your videos. It surprised me this year. It grows thru the heat, drought, rains, and now it got wiped out by the frost last winter but came back from seed. Hardly any pest damage. Raw or cooked. And my parrot gets it every day and loves it.
It’s coming! I got rain this week 🌧 Hang on Nancy 😊
Be careful what you wish for - soon you’ll be saying - we are having sooo much rain 😀.
The locals say the rainy season starts June 2nd (?) at 2pm.
I love it too! Took over my raised bed. Grew it from a cutting at our local plant exchange.
Longevity spinach, that is... Delicious with mushrooms and garlic!
Just made my way to Florida and am starting small this summer knowing I’m in for a wild ride. Looking forward to autumn planting!!
Welcome to Florida! Not sure where you moved from but, yes, Florida gardening is definitely different most everywhere else. lol
Welcome to Florida!
Welcome🙏
So timely. Just came back in the house from planting a bed of Cow Peas. I've got 4 more beds to plant. I'm with you I can't eat 50lbs of sweet potatoes!
I have Roselle that just comes up from seed every year. I’m not sure if it’s a derivative of Roselle. The flowers/the edible part are really small compared to what I’ve seen in the stores. I would love you to show us what you do with them once you have mature plants.
For the bed you were going to do sweet potatoes as second bed. Bush beans. Bush squash. They do not get real tall, they have short maturity time.
What about growing malanga? It does well in containers and are a good starch
We have the purple Hawaii sweet potatoes if you want some. We are in Sumter county Florida.
Lucky!! Those are soooo yummy! I found some at a natural food market in New Port Richey. Growing out some slips RN. So excited!
I have the Puertorician black beans in grow bags. they are doing well. I also have the trail of tears. They have just started climbing so looks promising.
🙌 Yes Sonnya!!!! Grow them black beans! Wishing you the best in growing many pound of black beans!
Also I love your energy, I noticed that a lot of these forest farmers have such high energy.
Asparagus beans r sweet, they snap, climb n can grow to 30 inches. 🙌 #💛UrbanHarvest
Try red Melabar spinach. It’s loves the heat on a trellis.
YES to Red Malabar Spinach. I am surprised at how easy they were to grow from seed! They are absolutely beautiful too. I'm growing them on my fenceline as well as trellises. They look so happy where many other things are struggling. Super excited about growing these for the first time. I grew way too much of it for our own consumption but the chickens will thank me for sure.
I was out today......in the yard.... AAAAAALLLLL DAAAAAAY! IT WAS OPPRESSIVE!
But I do love our area. People pay to vacation here. We get to live here!
I'm sorry but what are you saying, heat day peppers? I'm really interested in the pepper you mentioned but I've listened to it multiple times and cannot make out what you're actually saying. Thank you
Ajise peppers 🌶 👍😄
@@WildFloridian Thank You
You are gonna love growing luffa. I have it growing in full afternoon sun and dappled sun.
Can't wait! Thanks Tammy! 😄
Is it like a cucumber or zucchini? Thought about trying it but wanted to stay safe and grow what I know!! 😀
@@lorisilva10784 like a zucchini and if you want to try eating it I would try when it is about 1” in diameter
@@tammystoddard2830 Thank you!!
Those Puerto Rican black bean plants look like pigeon pea plants, a popular bean in Puerto Rico.
I love it when you talk through your process. I have purple sweet potatoes this year also and can’t wait to try them. I purchased seeds, including Luffa, from The Urban Harvest to be started this weekend 🙌🏼
Love your channel and so thankful I found it. I'm new to growing edibles and finally took the leap.when I saw videos of other gardeners UrbanHarvest one of them using GreenStalk vertical Tower. I love it and starting small lots of culinary and medicinal herbs. You are so funny and remind me of my younger daughter. Thank you for all the great info. BTW you mentioned sweet potatoes just planting the potato. You didn't mention you don't take the slips off and then replant the slips? I planted some organic Japanese sweet potatoes from Whole Foods two varieties and one regular in soil and the slips peeked through in less than 2 weeks.
Hi from Tampa Bay! The heat and humidity is right! Thanks for sharing this video!!!
Im in zone 10b… super sweet 100 is a excellent cherry tomato variety produces a ton and grows very well here, pretty pest resistant as well
Cute shirt! 🦎🌻
LOL! 🦎 🌻 Thank you!!!
Please let us know when the 24-25 planner comes out 😉
Love your very informative videos and really appreciate knowing how to grow sweet potatoes 🍠 Still need and want a few of the cattle panel trellises too 🥰
Omg, want to definitely grow loofa’s - too kewl we can grow that in sunny Florida
Yay! One of the viewers grew their sweet potatoes UP the cattle panel trellis! She sent me some pictures and they were gorgeous!
@@WildFloridian oh wow, neat!! I didn’t know you could do that with sweet potatoes.
I love your chanel. Im un st. Pete also. Might want to try Soybeans. Loves heat. My first time doing well with heat.
I planted louffa first time and today have very first one...
Thank you for sharing your knowledge great blessing
One more i have found that Detrrminate Tomatoes do best here and longer into summer. They are Hardy and produce good batch. Tge suze is more managabke than indeterminate types. Just my thoughts.
Brave heart romain is what i am trying this year
Really enjoying your channel, we recently moved from Pinellas with no room for a garden up to Citrus county where we have multiple acres. I'm trying to get the garden in gear, knowing that summer is going to be challenging!
Jacki... You have GOT to try growing this on your trellis! I have some going and they are stunning! Look it up and see what magic they behold. You will not be sorry.
Clitoria ternatea, commonly known as Asian pigeonwings, bluebellvine, blue pea, butterfly pea, cordofan pea or Darwin pea is a plant species belonging to the family Fabaceae. In India, it is revered as a holy flower, used in daily puja rituals.
We're in the same city so if you want to try some purple sweet potatoes swing by sometimes! I'll give a few slips. I got the original slips of Baker creek and they've done very well for me with little to no care. (Sent you a FB friend request 😊 )
Pigeon Peas. Amazing plant with many uses.
Seminole pumpkin would be good if you have space. Also I got a purple sweet potato at Publix and it’s done great!
Hey have you ever heard of little gem lettuce? I saw it on Baker creek and ordered them Asap. It's a lettuce plant that is heat tolerant up to 95 degrees! Hope this helps.
😯 95°?! Nice to know! Thanks
Plant some southern peas
You should try Seminole Pumpkin or Cherokee tan Pumpkins
Yes Charlene! I just did my first big Seminole Pumpkin harvest! And they are yummy!!!!!
@@WildFloridian Do they take alot of watering or no? Mine seem slow to grow. Full sun too....
Want to have the same success as you!! 😜
You said put your sweet potato right in the soil? so I don't have to do the water glass thing and wait to make a "slip"? that would be really great. I would use sweet potatoes for a cover crop and my pigs would love the greens. We have corn growing all over, volunteer. We have been underwater this year. Last 2 years, more on the dry side. Lots of construction likely the issue. Do you grow regular potatoes? I have tried, but the ants get to them and kill the plants. We are planning raised beds and hoop houses.
Thanks for the info. Love your videos.
Good morning, I've just recently found a new passion,and that is gardening. I have the same climate as you. My sweet potato slips are about 2or3 inches long,are they going to be late for planting? Another thing ,I can't seem to get when to start my Irish potato right .I could really use your advice.
I am trying sweet potatoes this summer from watching your videos. I am also gonna try pumpkin. And I had a watermelon vine just put out its first watermelon! Can't wait to see how loofah goes for you! I had a loofah vine on my patio apartment and had no idea it would get so big and with hardly any sun. It was wild. I may have to see if I can get ahold of another seed and add it to the garden if I have any room!
Me too! Although weather isn't the same in London as Florida (obviously). I don't really enjoy "normal" potatoes so really want to give sweet ones a go
@@self-sufficiencyinthecity I love normal potatoes, so I am banking on the white ones tasting good. My boyfriend is the one who loves sweet potatoes.
Yay! I'm about to plant out my roselle, can't wait to see how they do. I hear I'm going to have problems with the deer
You touched on a great point. What do you do with over abundance? I was drowning in papayas, mangoes and bananas last year. Even after sharing with neighbors and friends!
Is there a good way to store these? My freezer is stacked with frozen bananas & processed mangoes. How does one store papayas for later use? Do you have additional freezers for the produce? I hate growing and then throwing things out.
I cut up and freeze most things I grow. Cut them up and bag. I have banana papaya smoothies most days.
I dehydrate a lot of my papayas, mangoes and bananas. Plus, they are shelf stable.
@@PamIam04 I find they don’t stay very long. At least not long enough for me to eat them. I should look into a dehydrator that sounds like a good idea. Thank you!
@@baxtermt1 I freeze them but have run out of space. The mangoes are great to make desserts but I rarely have smoothies. Maybe something to start doing!
While it takes a little of an investment at first, you could can things, too. I've pickled, jammed, ketchuped, and candied. There are so many creative recipes on the internet. And with enough vinegar or sugar, it's easy and safe.
I'm trying something new this year called Okinawa Spinach. It's like longevity spinach but can take the cold better as well as the heat. I ordered them from Cody Cove Farm and Nursery here in Florida. He has alot of unique stuff. It would go great in that front bed because its more of an edible ground cover type plant. Look him up online if you get a chance.
You’ve got an incredible garden. What do you do with most of your crops? And when some of the tomatoes don’t do well or get infested do you immediately pull them up so they don’t spread bugs or disease to other crops? Also wondering if you have problem w squirrels and/or bunnies and how you handle that. We have a bumper crop of bunnies up here in Delightful Dunedin and although I have a chain link enclosure I wonder if they or squirrels might still get in. Came home the other day and couple bunnies were hanging around the brand new enclosure (Mothers Day gift). Hubby said they were talking and saying hurry and plant us a garden - ugh.
I thought I needed to sprout roots on a sweet potato first before planting? I can just throw those suckers in the ground?
True. People typically grow sweet potatoes from "slips", not by burying the whole potato. You can start the slips in a flat of moist coco coir or potting soil or even perlite... The potato will send out little plant shoots/vines which you then break off of the mother potato and plant into your soil. They can be grown in pots, grow bags, or in ground. You can also start slips in a jar of water, but I found that they can rot sometimes and that is no fun. Many videos on how-to start sweet potato slips. Jim Kovaleski lays his sweet potatoes in a 6" deep trench in ground and pulls up the slips as they grow to plant into his beds. So there's another option if you have the space. I just do it in flats with drainage holes so they don't rot from too much water. They do like a lot of moisture, but waterlogging will rot them. Pete Kanaris of Green Dreams Florida has a new video featuring Jim K that demonstrates his whole process. 👍
Thanks for the great Florida garden wisdom. Your sweet potato video inspired me but I can't find the white ones. I have purple and would love to do a slip swap as I'm just a hop over the bridge.
I found white potatoes at EarthFare last week, if you have one in your area (I'm in Seminole). I think I've seen them at Sprouts as well.
@@zelavie Thanks, I didn't see them at the sprouts near me I'll have to go back again. I can always make a quick trip across the Gandy elsewise.
Our Publix carries White Sweet potato also. I think it depends on the season as well.
I just got acquainted with Cody Cove farms. He carries a sweet potato that he's used in trials at Love and his farm. It out performs all. I just planned some and can't wait to see how it does.
Hi! Thanks for always perfect timing with your videos. One thing that’s still going strong are my collards, crazy strong! As well as my rattlesnake pole beans, very prolific. When I pull those, sweet potatoes, okra, turmeric, ginger and various summer leafy greens will go in. Btw, little gem lettuce has done great in the heat here in Brandon… so surprising! Will you be trying any other leafy greens other than Egyptian spinach? Would love to see a video on that if you decide to grow in that direction.
Good morning Jacqueline, where can I buy some of those Puerto Rican black beans? I’m down in Miami and I think they’ll grow great here. Thanks.
Morning Cuca Monga! 😄 The only place that I’m aware of is Urban Harvest. I can’t tell if it goes by another name. I would check with Latin markets down there (if they get their black beans local) it may be the same variety. I know my moms best friend supplies Asian markets with fresh fruit from her yard down their… but I have limited information to figure it out. Elise said she got it from her friend. I’m betting she will sell beans eventually and she ships… at the time of purchase… she was only selling live plants for pick up.
I'm in zone 9b and live in an apartment and would like to start my own vegetable garden. Do you have any tips or suggestions for starting a small garden?
It sure did get hot in a hurry up here in Tally - like someone flipped a switch.
I wanted to grow Rotella too, to make jams
I’m trying Malayan spinach and okra and sweet baby watermelons
Is the calyces yellow or just the flower? I have never heard of a yellow variety I can’t really find much online either. I have the red one but never knew about a yellow. If this is a thing I want some seeds what do I have to do for them 😂
I hope it’s ok to ask again but when a seed packet says thin later what does that mean & why thin?”
Can you list out the plants please? I am having a hard time figuring out what type of peppers you are growing.
Me too. Can't make it out.
Did you go to Green Thumb this year?!
Question. While growing sweet potatoes can I cut the vines and put in water to root so I have more slips ?
Yes! You can also take the vines and bury the nodes to get them to root more tubers.
I may try an Armenian cucumber that is suppose to tolerate temps up to 95 degrees
Dont u have purple sweet potatoes yet? Can send u some vines if u want...
Omg i have roselle seeds, didnt use....great u remind me to plant them....guess im on time to do it!
What is the spelling of that pepper? Thank you.
Hi Jackie, were did you get your pepper seeds that you mentioned in the beginning of this video, I would love to find them also I am growing some beefsteak tomato plants that are almost ready to pick, black trim and Rutgers they are huge can't wait to eat them and growing some Malabar spinach I also have luffa plants and black eye peas that do great in the heat. I also am growing a lot of amaranth and lot and lots of cranberry hibiscus, that plant I got from the New port Richey Library were Jim Kovaleski sells his produce you need to come up when he comes back in October, we can meet and I can take you there its so much fun talking to him.
My Amaranth is huge, and my cranberry hibiscus has multiple as well. Everybody loves both of these!
@@sewpretty13 that is awesome!!
What kind of peppers?
Yeah I also can't understand what pepper
Edit: it was aji dulce thanks to response from wild floridian!
Maybe turmeric or ginger in the empty bed?
I'm moving to Tampa next month, can't wait to finally have a yard for gardening! Do you recommend any nurseries or garden centers in the area?
What is the name of the pepper, thank you.
Do you have any advice on bananas? There are so many varieties- we want some sweet ones we can peel and eat 😃.
Hey are you part of the Tampa Bay Chapter Rare Fruit Council? I just joined and there are a ton of benefits! Only 20 per year
What is the difference from Puerto Ricoh black beans to the regular black beans. Will they grow in zone 10? I live in Homestead. I am Puerto Rican 🙋🏻♀️🪴👍
GINGER OR TURMERIC!! Basil, more Tom's? But definitely ginger or turmeric
You are a genius!!!! That is a great idea! I'm going to use that 3rd bed for Ginger AND Tumeric!!!!
@@WildFloridiandoing happy dance for you!! I do t think they are good companion plants though beings they are both root veggies n nightshade. Me personally have never done so not saying it can't be done. I got ginger rhizomes to share if ya like some n one or two turmeric to spare ❤️🧡
@@WildFloridian oh n that "genius" thing.....I do have my moments 😆 🤣 few n far between mind ya but it does happen 😆 🤣
I love my ginger and turmeric and eat it every day at every meal. But since you expressed concern for height in that bed, some of my ginger is literally 6 ft tall before it blooms. 😉 Most of the new rhizomes I planted are at two to three ft tall rn. The tall ones are from the mother plant. Not sure how old it is but that's where I got the new plants from.
Do you know of somewhere to get the pepper seeds? I’m unable to find them
I am trying to figure out how to spell it, lol aheysay?
The ones from the Caribbean are Aji Dulce and Baker Creek Seed has them
Can you tell me the name of the peppers you are planting
Ajise peppers 🌶 😊
Aji dulce aka Ajicito is my best guess as to the pepper she is talking about.
Goodmornig, I am curious can you grow regular potatoes in Florida?

Hey Psy!!!! #gardengang Best wishes to you and soon to be official official wife 🥰
I dont understand when she says ajise peppers? What is the name of the pepper? I dont know if im not spelling it right and cant find it on google.
Look up aji dulce. Ajise is what my neighbors call them
@@WildFloridian ohhh thank you! Thank you so much!
what kind of pepper was that??
Ajise pepper 🌶 😄
We’re you able to find any? I can’t seem to find seeds on a Google search
Being from Midwest so interesting how planting is opposite. So do you like turnips or kohlrabi? Im wondering if you grow sweet potato now, do these other root veg work?
Yes but in the winter. Our seasons are nearly opposite of Midwest for cool weather crops.
What is that pepper you’re saying? How do you spell it.
I’m looking for peppers you describe but the transcript says Ahi Say peppers. Can’t search for it.
Ajise or Aji Dulce
@@WildFloridian thank you so much! I’m going to look into that one.
