#acrehomestead #gardentour #garden
Hey Becky, thought I would let you know… you really shouldn’t paint your propane tank a dark color. It should be a reflective white or silver to avoid it building up pressure in the heat/sun. (I work for a propane company here in Texas and we are required to refuse service to any tank painted any color other color but white or silver/grey.). I would check with your propane company before painting it. I cannot be certain on requirements in your area, but it’s worth checking out first, instead of finding out you can’t get it filled when you need it.
I am vacationing in the UP of Michigan and literally EVERY propane tank here is painted dark green, FYI
@@gaardengrl as I stated, I am not familiar with the regulations in her area, just simply stated she should check it out before painting it. Better safe then sorry.
I love the green stalk. My husband and I are 70 and have never been able to have a homestead. we do however own our own two-bedroom bungalow, with living room, dining room and large kitchen, with an added-on bathroom as when it was built, they used an outhouse, so you can imagine how small it is. lol we do have a nice back yard in which we grew fruit trees from seeds. we used to have a small victory garden, but I told my husband I would like raised gardens in which we could put in a good area of the back yard, I figure we may not have a homestead, but it is the next best thing. we are completely debt free, so I count my blessings every day. I love following your progress and I learn so much from you.
You are so blessed! We also retired into the home we raised our family in and are debt free. We have 3 Greenstalks and this year I wasn’t able to do much since I had major back surgery. We are also blessed! I often think of the struggling elderly and young couples who can’t afford their own home! 😔
Blessed!! Sounds lovely!!
Sounds like a beautiful life!
@@Dranma51so lovely. I’m 66 and last year downsized into my “retirement” 2 bedroom cottage in New South Wales, Australia. Luckily previous owners weren’t gardeners so I had a blank slate on my little property. Last November I installed 4 large raised beds which are producing well. I’m learning about preserving by watching Becky. My goal later this year is to install a small cottage garden (to match my house) in the tiny front space.
@@LadyMadge Sounds lovely
The joy on her face as she explains all flowers and veggies….she is glowing!
Great job Becky!
Do you put your chickens poo in the beds? When you clean out their area, scoop the poo into a pile to decompose so it's not "hot" for the next year. You can add it to your beds in the fall and by spring time, it will be ready to plant in. This will give you a lot of nitrogen. Chicken poo is high in nitrogen.
You can root the strawberry runners into little plastic cups that you just clip with the clothes pin to the outside of the pockets and you can have the babies grow inside the cups and then you transplant the strawberry babies to a new green stock once they're ready to be separated from the mother plant.
I love this!
@@JustWatchMeDoThis 🙌😀
Ive been a long time viewer of your channel. I was missing the freedom of how you gardened at the last homestead. The addition of the pots and taking away the fabric just feels right. Thank you for being so constant with your posts. It gives me something to look forward to each week! ❤
Old school, actual "hair pins" for securing buns, French rolls, etc... ate great for securing the strawberry runners so the babies can take root.
I use these all over my garden
Paper clips work too
Thanks for the tip Terry. Have a beautiful day!
@@dig_grow_cookyes! I see another channel do paper clips and picked some up, but i haven't tried them yet, thanks for the reminder:)
They would be a lot cheaper.
I love that my grandkids that live with me now want to grow up and garden because of you.and my grandson which is 11 started cooking from watching you.ive got custody of 6 of them ages 5 months-11 and we sit together and binge watch you.happy blessed Sunday
Wow starting again with 6 kids as a grandmother, you are my hero. I’m a grandma of 5, but I get to send them home after a busy exhausting couple of days. You’re incredible, I wish you many happy memories with your family. Take good care of yourself ❤❤
Your grandkids are blessed to have you. If you can get each one a large pot or planter and let them grow whatever they want. It is a great way to spend time together and learn at the same time.
@robyn7287 thank you so much
@@taneshahunt1892 God bless you.
Wow! Grandma mom!!! You are incredible!!
Becky, how can it be that I’m simultaneously jealous and proud of you at the same time? 😊 You go girl! You are doing a fantastic job!
I’ve been saying this for awhile. We need a better word than envy or jealousy. It’s strong admiration with a hint of hunger for sharing it!
Plant lavender, Russian sage, fox glove, rosemary and catmint by the honey bees. The deer will not eat that and you will have glorious honey. Lavender! Lavender! Lavender! I had a 2 acre garden with no deer fencing but lavender, rosemary, nexican sage, russian sage and catmint on the outside. No deer ventured inside. Try it up by your bees in those open beds. It works!
All my mountain mint, lavender, rosemary & tickseed is not touched by the herd of deer that basically live 24/7 in my yard. All the other "deer-resistant" plants were devoured to the ground.
Be careful with Lilly’s in your yard as they can be super toxic to dogs (& cats for people that have cats too) if they get the pollen on their fur and lick it, they can get really sick
Feverfew is a perennial medicinal herb that is fantastic for pain relief, specifically headaches. You could transplant them to your bee yard but don't just toss them at the end of the season. They are precious. Also eucalyptus is a tree in some climates. Try to overwinter them please. I'd love to see that. I'm so jealous of your beautiful garden!
Morning glories are perfect for trellis growth. When my mom was alive she planted them every year and they grew beautifully up the side of her house.
Morning glories are so invasive
We lived near a Wonder Bread factory, they painted their propane tanks like the old fashioned wonder bread loaf packaging. They were so cute.
I saw a propane tank painted to look like a watermelon. It was so cute!
I worked for propane companies for years and those are called pig tanks and I think it would be cute painted as a pig LOL.
@@julieweber3398 She could make it look like a bee or bumblebee... that would be cute.
a gentleman from a propane company in TX posted on her other post that it's dangerous and that companies can refuse to refill them if not white...all depends on the city they live in and their rules...here in TX it's a nono
Your yard is so stunning! Your hard work really shows. Such a beautiful place to enjoy your gardening efforts.
Yes Becky your yard is looking beautiful!! Love the landscaping
For the Pacific Northwest, the passion flower vine is the fastest growing (and easiest to take care of) for trellis growing ❤ It's worth a shot, Becky!
Becky your garden looks so beautiful!! Sweet pea flowers have always been my favorite and have such a nostalgic smell- since they were new to you I was so excited to see what you thought of the smell! Have you smelled them yet? Tell us what you think! ❤
You have to ask the propane people about painting the tank. My neighbor had to reprint his, because he painted it a color them didn’t allow , I’m in Texas so every state might be different .
FYI the petite floret dahlia seed mix does not mean they are petite plants. It means they are all seeds that come from the parent dahlia that Erin named ‘Floret’. They should eventually get to the same height as all the other floret seed dahlias.
Yeah she mentioned she wanted to name it “daughters of Floret” but it didn’t sound/look right so they landed on petite floret
Break a paper clip in 2 to create a little u shape to hold the strawberry runners down until the set roots and you can cut the stem.
Or use a landscape staple...
You can order different variety of strawberries, if you have ona planter of early strawberries, one late strawberries you can eat from them longer.
Might want to leave the cabbage plant after you harvest the head of cabbage. In the past, I’ve had three heads of cabbage grow after harvesting the first one. Of course they’re a lot smaller, but still delicious.
Connect all of your pots in the big garden to the drip in the nearest bed. It’ll cut your work way down.
You can buy a container that fits on your hose that you can fill with your fertilizer, and apply it that way rather than mixing individual watering cans.
However, the fertilizer gets on all the leaves, flowers, and veggies, too.
Your joy in your garden brings ME joy. There is nothing more beautiful than a combination of vegetables and flowers!
Roses for the trellises- a big YES ❤ they need a little time to fill up the whole trellis, but you'll love them, they are stunning! And they will come back every year!
Thought she said in the video she didn't want perennials in the garden boxes but I don't know of any annual climbing roses.
@@chriscrema9470 The roses would not be annuals, of course.
Dill is apparently a good attraction plant for lady bugs if you are looking for more, some butterflies like it as well.
For the pumpkins to grow on the trellis get a stake put next to the plant tie string to it then run string to the trellis wrap leg of plant to follow the string up the trellis.
WOW, not only is your flower garden a delight to the eyes, I see so much production in your veggie garden as well! What a beautifully maintained garden. And so much more to come, I’m sure. Bravo, Becky!
I put wild flowers into one garden bed 4 years ago. Never saw much many flowers in that bed. Now years later they have taken over my lawn. Considering that even the grass is not putting up with the heat, all the actual wild flowers keep my yard green. Flowers will come up every week. Just don't give up on those wild flowers. They will be there in a year or 2 when you don't even remember them!
Becky, you might not want to trim on your determinate roma tomatoes. Since it’s only going to put on just so much growth, every branch is important. And as you know with determinate tomatoes, it will put on a main crop of tomatoes then start dying down so when it starts getting real hot it will be done before the disease and pests can hit it. Now an indeterminate tomato I will trim the fire out of it in our humid climate.
Everything looks so beautiful. Thank you for being " Mic'd up" so we can hear you real good. Even in Nairobi, Kenya!
You may want to plant different varieties. I know with my sixty-two fruit trees, I had early, mid, and late season varieties. We were very blessed.
Morning Glories do amazing on trellis and the hummingbirds LOVE them
I’m so envious of your weed-free beds. I didn’t have weeds until I started using amendments and mulch from the big box stores. I don’t want to use chemicals so it’s a constant struggle.
FYI - the deer will eat elderberry. Two of my 5 go chewed pretty well. I quickly put up a fence ( t posts and deer netting) to protect them. I cut up old tshirts to make ties for the garden.
Yes they do. I used marigold and planted all around they hate them! I also took hair and sprinkled it all around my garden ya sounds gross to some but trust me it works I had my daughter do it she has lots of deer and after four yrs of her gardening with not much to harvest she was finally able to get a full uneaten garden last yr
Thank you Becky for touring you beautiful gardens. Know you have many happy birds & butterflies.
Happy Birds, Butterflies and Bees ;) @janetfaircloth208!!
you should carry a small bucket of water for your impromptu flower harvesting.
Deer do not like fuzzy leaves. You could transplant your comfrey to the bee patch. Pumpkins would survive well too.
Becky you can plant Colette Climbing roses in your trellis. They are soft pink in colour and I had seen them in Laura's garden in her channel"Garden Answer " . She has a very beautiful garden... and you would be very very interested in her gardens...I am sure of.😊
Rose of seven sisters is my favorite... just beautiful.
I have an arbor in my garden and I put David Austin “Eden” on both sides of the arbor. They are beautiful!!
Oh my Sunday just got awesome!
When you talk about volunteers, just be very careful about squash volunteers. There are volunteer squash that can make you sick. Your garden looks beautiful. And just when you said it doesn’t get too hot in the Pacific Northwest today we are supposed to be 100 and yesterday was even hotter. That means water water water. I’ve moved 2x in the past 20 years and at both places I plant a Cecile Brunner Climbing Rose. They are beautiful. Here in Eugene I’ve had a really hard time getting my cucumbers to grow. They are finally growing 🤗
How exciting! When dreams become reality 🎉 love seeing all the life and blooms 💐
I love that you really embraced planting so many beautiful flowers this year. We all deserve some beauty in our lives!
Such a beautiful garden.... Love it. I can tell that this brings you so much JOY!!! Remember Happiness is fleeting but JOY Endures. Wishing you so much Joy!!!!
Hi, Becky. Next year, you might want to consider planting some Daphne. It has the sweetest scent and pretty little delicate purple/dark blue. Daphne, I believe , is a bit overlooked,
Vining roses for your trellis' sounds lovely. Another idea is night Jasmine.. the scent is divine. I'm not a gardener and don't know much about the actual growing...
Becky, your yard is just breathtaking! What a beautiful property you have!❤
Love garden tours!!! Gives me so much hope of having my own garden one day!
for roses that are great for trelis, super dorothy and super excelsa, small flower and rather simple but their abundance and the fact that they bloom all summer and usually grow about 4-5 meters high are excellent
Here in Connecticut it's very hot for this time of year. It's the new "normal". I had big gardening plans this spring, but I didn't manage to get any of them done. My greenstalk is full of weeds, and critters ate all 30 heads of garlic. When that happened I lost hope and steam to get my garden planted. I've got 3 San Marzano tomato plants to put in the ground along with two tomatillos and a bunch of basil and other plants.
I’ve had the same issue. Try just working in the garden 15 minutes a day. You can chip away at it. Plant one plant per day or a few seeds. And pull a couple weeds.😊 You can do it!
In the meantime why not put some fairy lights in the trellis ?! Everything looks great!
You deserve a red ribbon for your gardening skills and your landscaping. Everything is just beautiful.🎉🎉
Blue! First place!
Oops. You are right.
Becky 😊 I have some Snapdragons that I planted 5 yrs ago in pots. I live in Vancouver, Canada, with a similar climate as yours. I cut them for vases all season, and when they start their last flowers allow them to go to seed. They winter over and I just transplant them into other areas in my garden. For five years I have not purchased Snapdragons 😊
Your garden looks great Becky just a suggestion that I do with my runners on strawberries. I use a hairpin and stick it. Stick the runner on the ground and then put a hairpin over the top. It's like a clip in the ground and it holds that little runner down might want to give it a try.
...or a landscape staple...
Becky I just got chooks and it’s mainly because of you. I too call them the girls. I have three isa browns Yesterday I made my first frittata with their eggs and Belgium waffles. Thanks for sharing your life
Hi Backyard,
If the lower beds are more lush than the upper beds, perhaps the fertilizer is being washed down with watering. Just a thought, I’m really not sue. In NewEngland where we lived, I knew.
Here in Florida it’s a whole new game and it’s hard. You’re doing great. Hugs Elaine.❤
That’s weird, I wrote BecKy and it wrote backyard, my apologies. Wouldn’t let me correct it. Sorry.
When I first started gardening way back in'94, my squash got aphids, so i ordered a box of ladybugs. It was the best thing I could've done. Every year, they came back, and I never had an aphid problem again. I believe in using insects to control insects. It actually works, and you don't risk poisoning people or animals. Good luck and gorgeous garden.
So nice with a flower pot by the garden beds!!👌🌺🌸 A lot more cosy look!! I remember the mushrooms you planted at the previous garden! 👍
Everything is looking so lush and beautiful! Your flowers are so amazing, especially the Snapdragons! I also like that you tuck flowers around the vegetables just for garden viewing. A nice present every time you harvest something! ☺🌸
Your garden is absolutely gorgeous and so healthy 😍 Y'all have done a fantastic job with your landscape as well! Wow, I'm in awe!
Hi Becky, just a suggestion to paint your tank to look like one of your honey bees! That would be adorable.
Becky, if you "train" pumpkins to grow up the trellis, won't that prevent them from growing large? Unless you train the small white pumpkins, that may be ok?
Becky, I love your channel and look forward to each posting . I have wisteria growing up the arbors in our backyard and they are so beautiful. You may consider growing those for your arches.
Hi Becky, Living Traditions had a very bad aphid problem. They sprayed milk on affected areas...did the trick. Doesn't hurt the ladybugs.
Your backyard looks Heavenly! You’ve made it beautiful!♥️
I live in the tropics and have a whole different planting/harvesting regime as we can plant all year long, it struck me watching you in your garden that you only have a small window of maybe 4 months for gardening and it looks amazing!
You might consider honeycomb or star jasmine vines for the arches; both your bees and hummingbirds should love them, and the smell would be amazing.
And the jasmine smells so good!
That japanese maple is just stunning and the dahlia in front of it is going to shine with the acer behind it❤
I'm in awe of how far you have come in such a short time! Just stunning! Whatever you decide to grow in the trellis, rose, .... Think how lovely adding a scent to all the rest. Nothing better than the beautiful smell of roses. Unfortunately I don't know names / varieties. I use to get so frustrated trying to get my garden going "early". I stopped fighting it and didn't really start until mid May. And I cut back to more of just what I'll eat. I live in Bremerton and we don't get all that early production others do. So happy for you Becky! 💙😎💚🐸💛🐸💜😎
A volunteer is a self seeded plant. I love rhat they just grow where the seed lands.
I get lots of things like that in my garden. Saves money and time 😊
Yess a garden tour the garden has absolutely EXPLODED 🥰🥰🥰
Hello. I’m a hairstylist and if you use natural hair in your garden where your bees are, the deer won’t eat your plants that your planted. Stop by one of the salons in your area and ask them to save the hair that they cut. But make sure it’s not color treated. Good luck from San Ramon. A suburb in the Bay Area near San Francisco.
I’m from Oakland! What a great tip!
That’s funny I just posted tht comment my daughter has fought deer eating her garden for the last 4 yrs I had her do the hair all around her garden and she called me a week later so excited saying how well the hair trick worked she didn’t believe Me lol I can’t believe she don’t remember me doin it when she was little I went to my hairstylist and she would gladly give me the hair.. also marigolds work to but the French marigolds work best because they get so big and bushy deer hate them smell of them they love my hostas so. I sprinkle chili powder on them at the beginning of spring once they go to eat it they will not be back because they remember tht taste or remember the plants are wht they want lol trust me last time I sprinkled was two yrs ago and my hostas are finally doing great now next spring I will sprinkle some more chili power just to keep them away
Madam alfred carrière is a beautiful scented, white rose, it blooms,all sumner long. Those scarlet runners could go up the arches too, they are so tall!!
that bouquet is such a winner! I love all the pinkey orangey colors, sunset vibes
You couldn’t wait to share, and I couldn’t wait to see the update.. thank you for sharing and inspiring me to start a small garden ..
Beautiful garden tour Becky, all your hard work is paying off.
Congratulations 🎉
Nasturtiums have the prettiest leaves.
Your garden is glorious.
Garden looks so rich and green and vibrant!😮
Hey, sweetie! Probably a million people have told you already, but that front row of snapdragons that's called Potomac, is pronounced POE-TOE-MACK, emphasis on TOE. Like the river that runs from West Virginia through Maryland and Virginia, through DC, past George Washington's home Mount Vernon and on. Maybe you remember the old story about George tossing a silver dollar across the Potomac as a child (complete fiction - it's too far a distance and silver dollars didn't exist when he was a child)? Same river. 😊
Your garden is glorious - a complete reflection of its beautiful creator!🩷
Hooray! A break from the heat in AC with my girl, Becky!
You are like my wife. She walks away from her coffee and it gets cold several times before she actually drinks it
I got her a Nexcup and it keeps it warm for her and she LOVES IT
Your garden sure is growing so beautiful. You have become such a great gardener.
It heals my soul watching Becky's garden...so much difference from mine❤
Re check your seed packet for those scarlet runner beans. Ive always seen them with scarlet red flowers. The exact shade pf scarlet can vary from seed source to seed source, but is also suppose to be indicative of missing soil nutrients too.
I just came in the house after spending 3 hours working on our backyard and after fertilizing my garden. I was happy to see this video!
We have an arch in our yard. We planted grape plants on either side. It’s just gorgeous! Maybe grapes and roses on your arch? That would be stunning! I’ll as my mom which rose will be best. Helps to have a florist in the family! ❤
I was in Florence, Oregon 3 weeks ago. We enjoyed our time on the Oregon coast. Hope you liked Tillamook and that you got some cheese! 😂
And ice cream!
I've been to the international rose garden in Portland. I can't believe how many roses there are there. They had a shop there. The roses grown there would probably grow better than the ones grown in Texas. I love roses. I have knock out roses.
I love your snapdragon flowers. I love all of them. They’re so beautiful.!!😮 give the pumpkins that are not growing fast some liquid fertilizer
Crimson clover, white clover and red clover are all great nitrogen fixers as well as lupines. Daddy always planted crimson clover in our garden after harvest was done for the fall and he planted white clover for the spring to help replenish the nitrogen.
I am going to buy the smaller green stalk. Thanks for the tip and the discount code! I live in Florida and the sun is brutal. I do not have enough shade in the same place throughout the day to grow flowers and herbs. The green stalk on the spinning wheels stand is a perfect solution! I have a large patio so I can roll and spin my green stalk around so that the plants are getting the right amount of sun and shade they need during the day.
Everything looks absolutely beautiful!! We’re looking forward to those cooler temps as well…should roll in by Tuesday. Getting some much needed rain from hurricane Beryl…🥳🥳
I'd be very careful painting the tank. Those tanks are painted white/light colors to reflect light to keep the tank from getting too hot and sending the tank out of spec. Depending on the color/design/type of paint used, you're next inspection might see you buying a new tank altogether.
Here in Louisiana, we have some beautiful roses that will trellis-- Peggy Martin. Not sure if they would survive your winter.
Have you thought about having a cute box out in the garden and keeping a set of shears in it. You'd have it close to cutting your flowers, and to harvest your vegetables. Love,love your garden, your hard work shows BEAUTIFULLY. 😍
Yes, a cute painted mailbox would work.
I put a mailbox next to my garden. It holds so many garden tools, tomato clips etc.
I have a mailbox also and I am also very happy with it. I keep gnat stock on it too. Gloves, sheets, tomatoes tying gun etc.
She had a pair on the tomato bed ledge .
Climbing roses would be beautiful on your trellis
Jason at cog hill farm has quite a few rose videos..he's got a ton of them ..climbing, on swags, on fences and arched cattle panels
Your garden is amazing and it looks so healthy. The flowers are just... wow! The loofah plants need heat to thrive, once you get to the 80's 90's weather they will grow like crazy, but they do need time and usually they are the last crop to harvest, don't give up on them just yet.
Becky, im great grandmother got her cabbage roses to climb. Not sure what the brand was.. but boy did they climb. She had them by her garlic and brussel sprouts, and they would start yellow, then light pink and purple. She also got her snowballs to climb to, those was white!
My favourite climbing rose is MASQUERADE the flower start yellow and as they age they turn pink then red. They grow about 18ft.
