How many of us are watching Laura fill dirt into little containers and enjoying every minute of it lol. It's a Garden Answer "thing" ♥
Very relaxing 😌
I love seeing you doing one-handed gardening while you film. Talented all the way.
Thank you for showing all of these technical parts when you plant your crops. I’m a beginner gardener and when you show exactly how you run drip…and how you fix drip…it is VERY helpful! Please keep these videos coming.
I am absolutely loving the no music, just the sounds of the garden and planting ♥️
I love these ‘catch-all’ videos, where Laura is just showing a regular day around the garden. One suggestion about tomato cuttings: I had a really great success rooting the suckers in water. Pretty much 100% success and planted them once they had strong and extensive roots. That’s how I overwinter the best producing plants on my window sill.
I so enjoy your videos and learn so much! Thank you for sharing your skill and knowledge with us.
The really great thing about growing more Tomatoes now is, the simple fact you will have suckers on those Tomatoes and so on, time it right and you can start next season with plants rather than seeds. It is in my experience the best way if your climate can support it, sucker plants grow so much stronger and quicker and fruit sooner and lower down on the main stem. IT really is the best way if your climate can support them...Steve...🙂
Laura you’re such a breath of fresh air.
So nice to end my day with a video from you.
I love how you say ‘we’ planted these tomatoes, like we were there right next to you in person the whole way.
You’re my RUclips person. I don’t watch any other garden channels. 🙂
I love the smell of tomato plants and could smell each time you cut a suckered off 😃
You can? Wow you must have a super sniffer 👃🍅LoL
Morning! For the drip irrigation on the veg beds, I highly recomend the Garden in Minutes Garden Grid watering system. I put one in my pepper bed and it’s been a total game changer. I do square foot gardening so the grid also helps mark my squares. I’m not associated with GIM, just a happy customer. Happy gardening everyone!
Thanks, I was going to suggest the same!
This is cool!! Thanks for the recommendation!!
Good morning all have a safe and blessed day
You are talking about your raised beds in your garden: I would put your quarter inch drip on the outside of the bed 1st and end up with the last part of it in the middle, that way it might get more saturated with water more evenly. Just a thought.
Just love Russell right there in the Middle of tomato planting! 🐈
Ive been amazed by this video, I always thought that the suckers had to be plucked out as soon as they started to grow… Is that why my tomato plants are so tall and thin? I have never seen tomato plants look like shrubs….. what a money saver tip this is. I will now go outside and see if there are any suckers that I have missed and see if I can repot them like you Laura. Wow
I never knew you could plant tomato slips. I will be trying that .
Wow! I learned a lot this video. I didn't know you can use the suckers from tomatoes as new plants. The other thing, I know it sounds dumb, halving the label tags in half. Lol! I always run into issues, as you know, when you put the lid on the tray. Smh. Sometimes the obvious gets away from me. Lol! Love the channel and love what you do. ❤️
Laura ..love the way you tackle the “job” ….full speed ahead ..large and in charge 🥰
If u push down on the parsnips or carrots they pull much easier
I also had trouble with my 1/4” drip line clogging. I switched to all 1/2” lines and am on my second year with success. I will be interested in seeing how your hybrid approach works out!
Great video. I never knew you could do that with tomatoes. I learnt something knew today. So easy. Waiting to see how the back entrance way looks hurry up Benny.😂. Thank you so very much for sharing this with us.🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I've been growing tomatoes from seed and its SOO much faster to do from cutting, you get fruit faster, so so easy, you almost can't mess it up lol
We started a sucker back in late June....we now are eating those. Close to house. Love this Laura and all you do! Thanks
Hi Laura. A tip that I picked up from a british vlog is when picking parsnips and even carrots, push them down firmly then pull and they pop right out without a fight.
Hi Laura and Aaron! Love your videos. We built our 6a garden from scratch in 2020. Our area in southern British Columbia is semi arid and we have similar high temps and minimal rainfall. We've done all the irrigation ourselves and I'm learning many tricks from you. My question is, when running 1/4" drip, what fitting do you use at the dead end? Is that the same fitting that you use in a pot? Or do you run those in a complete circle? Keep up the great work, you inspire so many of us to try things we know nothing about!
Seeing the mundane things has been so helpful - including with changing out the drip lines. For a year, I struggled with ineffectively pushing the barbs onto the lines by sheer force which bent the drip line until I noticed Laura working them back-and-forth as she did in this video. What a difference that makes! Thanks for the little things 🙂
I struggled at first too with inserting the fittings (who thought irrigation was a good project for March?? 🤦🏼♀️😏🤷🏼♀️) - if it’s too cold for them to be pliable I also found taking a coffee thermos out with hot water and dipping the tubing ends in before trying to work with them to be helpful.
The gardens at Monticello are amazing. If you've never been, there's one for your bucket list. Jefferson spent a lot of time in France and was an avid gardener, so am not surprised to see the "French" carrot seeds. He and his neighbor in the next county over (where I live), James Madison, used to compare gardening and farm notes. James and Dolley Madison had a French gardener couple, Mr. and Mrs. Bizet, who took care of their gardens.
Hi. I have enjoyed many trips to Monticello. There are multiple excellent videos on the internet, and their own website. The gift shop is wonderful also.
A little off topic, but I was noticing as you were in the raised bed garden that several arbs are looking a bit toasted. Is that normal/expected given the heat, etc. you've had this year? I ask because I have an arb that is about 2 years old that has a similar look and trying to decide if I need to pull it...Also, "demi-longue" = half long as well :) Thanks as always!
I was thinking the same question
What pots did you use for the tomato cuttings? 🪴🪴🪴 They look sturdy to get multiple years of use...
Also, have you considered putting a water softener on just the Hartley and maybe your greenhouse? That would really cut down on the hard water stains on your plants, pots, and your new stone floor! 💦💦💦
After watching your videos this season, I did drip to all my window boxes, containers, and raised beds. What a time saver--thank you, thank you, thank you! As the season is waning, I have a few questions about drip. Can you do a video on winterizing your drip? Do you replace the quarter inch lines every year?
We are just past noon here in the UK - hi Laura ☺️
Are your arborvite doing OK by the veg garden? Do you have to replace that irrigation line due to your hard water?
Hope those lovely big trees are ok! Have they been sprayed with something from the other side?
Anyone else feel like Laura was doing an AMSR video as she was filling the containers with soil? It was so oddly relaxing.
Morning all. Always learning something new. Thank you Laura. I enjoyed. I got some tulip bulbs yesterday. Never planted them before. Will plant them the end of this month and will see what happens in the spring. Enjoy your day. xo
I always thought you planted tulips later than daffs etc. More late October into November. It obviously depends where you live and how cold/frozen the ground is. Mind the squirrels don't dig them up as well. But it is lovely to look forward to the spring.
@@susanjohnstone8185 They are Miracle Gro bulbs. They look absolutely gorgeous from the packaging pics in various shades of purples, white and yellows. In Gaylord, MI we can start to get snow from Oct. 15th on. The package said plant late Sept./Early Oct. Didn't know about the squirrels. We do have squirrels. Our fault. We feed half the neighborhood! Thanks for sharing We'll see what happens. Wish me luck. xo
@@donnaokoniewski3761 hi Donna, if you plant your tulips in containers you could cover bulbs half way with soil/compost, place in some wire netting, cut to size, with holes not too small, to allow the bulbs to push through. Then finish filling with soil/compost totally hiding the wire. You could do a comparison....one without and the rest protected. Hope you have a wonderful display, but we will never, ever match Laura. Merseyside, UK.
@@susanjohnstone8185 Hi Susan. Thank you for the tip, I may give it a go. It's fun to learn something new. We have such long winters and very short summers. I see you are from the UK. May I extend my deepest and most sincere condolences to you, England and the UK on the loss of your beloved Queen. I really liked her and always thought she was a Lady in every sense of the word. Always carried herself with grace and dignity. I will miss her.
This is only my second gardening season. A simple pleasure is making the same noise as Laura when I move the plastic trays around 😊
Same here friend. Isn't it a pleasure?
Hello Laura, is there some days where you feel you need a break from all the gardening? Did you know that tomatoes is a vegetable that people suffering with arthritis should avoid? I love tomatoes and make toasted tomatoes sandwiches everyday. Right now they field tomatoes are so sweet.
I always get so motivated when you’re in the raised bed garden! But I noticed burn on your arb hedge…are they ok? Is that normal for summer or are you worried about them?
I appreciate how you redo your raised beds. Would you mind sharing your crop rotation schedule if you have one? I read once that certain vegetables should follow other vegetables due to the nutrients each pull from the soil. Thank yoU!
This was so helpful to see how you solved your irrigation problem! I have the same problem in my two raised beds. How did you terminate the quarter inch tubing?
Laura..maybe you can put a few (or several) tomato suckers in water. As they produce roots you could swap them out with any of the planted ones that don't survive.
I had gotten carrot seeds and worried it was too late to plant them. I guess not! I will be putting my seeds in this weekend now. Thanks!
I would love more videos like this with seed starts and timing.
Perfect timing, i have a friend with a new little greenhouse that wants to try some tomatoes this winter inside, going to go see if i can start some of her favorites from garden, they were included in your list. Questions: which is your favorite yellow tomato, bellini or patio sunshine? I have grown patio sunshine for two years, HUGE PRODUCER. And when you say put an order in, you referring to your parents garden center? I go through tons of potting soil (both regular and cactus, yep, you created a love for succulents for me) and seed starting soil. I like to get my seed supplies together early. Basil, do you start your Amazel Basil from seed? I could not find this year, and started Pesto Besto, which was good, but not the huge producer the Amazel was. OK, heading out to take clippings now.
Fall is here. Thanks laura for your tips 💚✌👌💚💚
I love Tom Thumb lettuce, I’m in zone six so maybe I’ll try to quick pop some in my raised bed see if it had time to head up . Green beans are starting to produce 👏 Green bean produce better here in the fall because the nights turn cooler . Thanks for the lesson in drip , so helpful. I have 1/4” drip waiting to be installed in my raised beds so glad I seen this before I install it . I plan to do three or for separate runs like that instead of a continuous run . Never ran drip in my life !
I have noticed in a number of videos of the raised beds that the soil has a lot of insects crawling around. How do you deal with the insects that feed on plant leaves when you organically garden food crops?
Tomato Trees more like it! I find this very interesting, I had no idea you could root the suckers, but it makes sense, thanks for all you do❤️
Rooting tomato suckers work’s amazingly well. I usually just stick the suckers into a glass of water and they root within a couple days! Give it a try! It’s awesome!
Hi Laura, your videos are so encouraging and makes me want to go plant!! You make it so effortlessly and you seem to get so much done. QUESTION: what would be the activity you'd pursue with all the time you'd have if you didn't garden?
Can’t wait to see all the tomatoes!
Thanks for continuing to share your garden wisdom. I’ve been tuning into your videos for about 5 years and learn something new every day. It’s a joy watching your gardens and sweet children grow. I love to watch you and Aaron interact. My husband and I will celebrate 52 years of marriage in December and hopefully will have many more!!! Blessings on you and your family and all future endeavors.
Adrienne Quinlan♡♡♡ Congratulations to you and your Precious husband on y'all's 52nd Anniversary in December ☆♡☆♡☆♡☆♡ And many more♡♡♡ GOD IS SO GOOD ♡♡♡
Will these plants grow as big and produce as much fruit as the plants that live outside during the summer season?
I would love to see a video from GA on tomato seed saving. 🍅🙂
I'm curious if you have a preference to plant determinate or indeterminate tomatoes and why?
When propagating you should do your cuttings during the early part of the day. During the early part of day is when the plant has the Highest sugar content. Also take cuttings from a healthy mother plant.
Your new configuration of drip in the raised beds should work a lot better.
Good morning lovelies! I was planning on working outside today but my husband scared a skunk earlier when he left for work! I’ve been worried about this happening since we started seeing them on our homestead the last couple of weeks. I want to bring it to your attention because I have been using the Espoma products like Laura does and critters have been digging up my plants to eat the “yummy” organic fertilizer! Pretty sure the skunks are the major culprit! So be forewarned gardening peeps, critters are attracted to organic fertilizers. I feel like I’m going to have to put barriers around newly planted items so I can still use them.
You're right about the Espoma products attracting critters. I live in Texas and the armadillos made a huge mess of my garden beds. I left a partial bag of bio-tone on the patio and something, I'm thinking a squirrel, chewed a hole in it. Acckkk
I had the same problem with either raccoons or squirrels digging up every plant I planted using biotin starter in the holes. No problem with the other espoma products.
Skunks are nocturnal. You shouldn't have a problem running into it during the daylight hours.
If there is blood meal or bone meal in it, that will definitely attract certain animals. You can't use it to top dress your gardens; it needs to be deep and well spread out. If you mulch on top, that will really help hide the scent.
I use the Espoma also, but I just sprinkle some Bonide Repeals-All granular around perimeters and it seems to do the trick.
ahhh, now i have greenhouse envy, haha (not really, no room here for one).. how fun!!! would a little bit of rooting hormone help those cuttings? and great idea for the drip system: hubby has been doing something similar here in our gardens; drip systems are wonderful but do need tweaking and monitoring... never "one and done" as you say... finally seeing a little cooler temps here, thank goodness.. time to think about fall veggies!!! you are inspiring me! 🥰❤ thanks for the video! 🥰❤
I'm curious, if you were to put the cuttings in water to sprout a few roots first and then put in soil, how would that work?
How do you keep weeds at bay? My greenhouse gets so many weeds and I don't know a safe way to keep them from growing
I had great luck with saving seeds from Campari tomatoes from the grocery store and planting them this spring.
Have your tomatoes been the same as the original or are they different?
I just germinated some and wondering what I will grow...did u get Camparis?
@@aprilnelson8217 well, due to heavy rains & flooding I lost most of my tomato plants & had to replace with purchased plants in July. I would stick with heirloom tomatoes
Great timing! I am thinking about trying to overwinter tomatoes and peppers in the basement. We’ll see what happens!
Also, after pulling a crop or plant that has spider mites, do you have to wait a certain amount of time before planting again to make sure they aren’t hanging out in the soil and ready to devour the next plants? Or do they die off fairly quickly without plant material to feed off of?
Great video, I never thought to plant the suckers. I have cut off so many of them this year and thrown them away. Dang... next year!
Hey friends! Two questions here. Holy basil!!! What are you going to do with all that basil?? Also did your arb hedge get sprayed behind the raised beds? Why are they browning out so bad on the back sides? I hope you don’t lose those they’re beautiful!
We’re getting our first frost in a couple weeks (zone 4) and you’re planting tomatoes 😲 I feel like I’m in the twilight zone.
She's also got a heated high tunnel.
I was wondering why you all can't put a filtration system on your well or wherever they go to treat for your hard water.
🍅Good morning Laura and all GA Friends from Clinton Township, Michigan. ☕️. My day off and hoping it rains all day. Another great video to motivate and inspire gardeners to keep planting. Thank you Laura, and have a great week everyone 🌻🧡🌧
Are your arbs doing OK?
One consolation if your septic tank fails and you are forced into city water-your water will probably be less hard. It’s what happened to us. We had horribly hard well water. Then we moved two miles away where we had city water and there is truly a big difference in the hardness of the water.
Okay Laura. What is your nail and hand/skin regimen? I know you don't often wear gloves so we need to know how you keep such well manicured nails. Seems superficial to ask but you just gotta tell us your behind the scenes practices. Thank you for your daily vlogs.
How many years do you get out of the drip tube?
I have such a long list of things I would like on our new property and with every video I watch my list gets longer. But, a heated green house stays right at the top!! I love to propagate my favorite plants to add to my landscape, yet it has never occurred to me that I could start off with anything but seed for vegetables. Thanks for always giving me new ideas!! Being able to grow vegetables and flowers all winter long would be AMAZING!!
Another awesome video!! Thank you!!
Really enjoyed this one 👌
Good morning 🇺🇸
demi-longue is french for half long 😉
We love growing new tomato plants 🪴 from cuttings! It's amazing how you can increase the number of tomato 🍅 plants in the garden in such a simple way! 😀
Didn't know until this year, after another You tube gardener said it could be done, i tried it just to make sure and he was right
I’m really excited about your drip, you’re going to have phenomenal results from changing that out!
I think I missed it
Do you water the cuttings right away?
This looks exciting!
Appreciate the mentoring
Good morning Laura. I live in Richmond Va and Monticello is not far. The grounds and gardens are magical (despite it’s past) and I’ve grown fruits/veggies from their seeds with quite good success!!!
What size boards did you use to build the raised beds?
I’m so glad you showed us that change in your water supply system in raised beds. I’ve been having some issues in my long raised beds not getting enough water. This will for sure be a change I will do after my raspberry are done this season. Thanks from Michigan zone 6a
Good morning Laura! So much for planting fewer tomatoes😂😂😂Before any dager of frost trasplant your peppers and bring them in the green house you will have a head startnext year maybe they will produce too. The same with eggplants and okra. They are perennial in the right zone.🤗💜🤗
Love your channel and have been watching for years. Question... Is it okay to propogate proven winners tomatoes? I know you've said before that you can't propogate their flowers. I was just curious. Thank you and Aaron for sharing your talents and your beautiful family. Your garden is inspiring! 🌹💕
I removed suckers from my tomatoes and now they are about a foot tall. My Dad always planted suckers for our fall crop.
Have you ever thought of making some permanent raised beds in your greenhouse? Thank you so much for being such a ray of sunshine. You have given me a safe place to come and be encouraged. May God Bless you and your family.
DRIP IRRIGATION: I have learned that having a closed loop works best for distribution. It also helps eliminate popping off at the ends. Eager to see how your method compares.
Do spider mites stay in the ground?
No Bio-tone for the tomato starts?
LOVE THIS VIDEO!!! I don't know why I never thought of planting my tomato suckers. Probably a space issue with me but I'm going to watch how you do this and I'll be trying it for sure! Thank you for this great video!
I noticed your Amazel Basil is flowering at the tips. My PW Pesto Besto basil is doing the same but still growing beautifully. Are these varieties good to eat still, after flowering?
Laura, can't you just poke more holes into the drip line that's clogged from the hard water? Just an idea.
Thanks for showing your drip system details! I had been wondering about your system since I am also using the quarter inch inline emitters. My guess is you will be happy with your change. Please keep us posted. I may have raised beds in the future so I am curious how this will work out for you. Your original way seemed much simpler but I was curious about the long run of line. Also seeing your emitters plugged made me feel better. I was super disappointed when these plugged for me. I had hoped they would last much longer than the quarter inch soaker. Guess its normal.
My carrots and radish grow thin any advise?
How about replacing the boxwoods in the four terracotta pots with some small little fruit trees? To keep with the food theme in the vegetable garden. Just an idea.
Where did you find Caspari Tomato seeds? I tried this spring & could not find any!
Hey olive tree!!!!! We see you!!!!!! You beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!
With your zones controlled by your phones has Aaron ever "accidentally" turned on a zone on you? 😉
Little 1/4 inch spray nozzles are also a possibility for running the system for a shorter period. They are especially good for seed starting as they keep the area wet, switching over to drip nozzles later on as the plants grow a canopy may be needed. Is that something you would consider?
I learned something new today...that you can root tomato suckers. Never knew that! Thanks Laura!
Good morning! How wonderful that you can plant a second crop this late in the season. Need to rewatch to see what tomato plant you like over the winter.
Any chance there will be a Samantha sighting soon, I'm needing a little girl fix (I only had boys & are grown) Thanks Mama : D
Good morning! 🌻🐝
Laura your so amazing, I learn something from every video. I'm gonna do the something to my tomatoes. Thank you😊
