Excellent, Straightforward, Concise... kudos
Watches mason bees all over our our herb garden.. Nice to see.
dont forget tomatoes and peppers need bees too. I let my celery go to seed every year, it comes back on its own without having to plant it...(of course it move around)
Tomatoes are technically self-pollinating, but bees do help them set fruit. We also give the cages a good shake to help drop pollen in the spring.
Isn't it great how you get a million celery (or cilantro or arugula) when you let it go to seed? Best volunteers ever!
YEs I love it, I am about to harvest cilantro seed, I use it in the salsa I can up for the winter since the cilantro itself is pretty much gone. I am going to try to save lettuce seed this yr too. BTW, I think your hair grown out looks really cute. Also, I got 5 garlic braids this yr, thanks to your video. (we panted more for braiding, lol)
You'll see in upcoming videos that I just got my hair chopped off. Donated it to Locks of Love. I do that yearly if I can.
Enjoy your cilantro seed harvest!
thats awesome it grows so fast you can do that. What a nice thing to do. Its cute long, hadn't seen it that long b/4 (cute short too and nice for the summer) Yes, better seed harvest than I did with the cilantro. Only dried one batch b/4 it bolted. lol Thats the way it goes some years. Climate change has made it harder for us to grow spring veggies past few years, everything goes from 65-75 to 100 the next day and bolts. This year was wetter and better. (thank goodness)
Here in SoCal, we plant cool weather stuff in October to grow through winter and then we don't even bother with cool weather stuff in spring. We go straight to warm/hot weather crops because it gets hot so fast. Sounds like you have a similar situation. Maybe the increased rain will continue (fingers crossed).
