Hey sorry I am just now getting around to saying this, but I am very thankful for you Georgia boys answering my question about onions, and I am very grateful for the gift y’all sent me. I have not gardened in awhile but got one of my old Troy built tillers going. I did a big road trip, 9 hours round trip, to get a bcs tiller that was not running. I got it running. You boys have inspired me to get back at it. Thanks for everything.
OMG! I just could not imagine life without collards! As my daddy used to say, "They'll put lead in your pencil!" A very sweet, old lady told me to add a handful of baking soda to the water when you wash your collards. Let them soak in it for about 20 minutes - then rinse, rinse, rinse - They'll also cook up just a little more tender.
@Right Wing Environmentalist Caution for pregnant women though. Can't remember details, but throws something out of balance and can be harmful for baby.
My grandmother used to do that as well with the collards. She also added a couple capfuls of vinegar at the end of cooking. My brother and i would fight over the greens and I loved to drink the "pot liquor".
I absolutely LOVE 💘 your show. Thanks so much for all the useful information about plants. I also enjoyed the tool tips you shared. Keep up the good work!
I planted my fall sweet corn about a week after you guys. I had a few left over seeds also, planted a week before. My Hoss varieties will be ready this coming week, Nov10-12. I didn't have any ear worms either, and I didn't spray at all. Plants are only 4ft tall but ears are edible!
It was a tough year for fall sweet corn because it was so unusually hot and dry later than normal. But it sounds like you're going to have a nice harvest!
I've been growing mizuna and tatsoi for a few years now. Mizuna you can cut back practically to the ground and it will just keep popping new stems out the crown. I think tatsoi is a really pretty plant and tasty too. It grows in a nice flat rosette with spoon-like leaves. Thai friend of mine turned me on to gai lan, also known as Chinese broccoli or Chinese kale. Think broccoli with long succulent stems and very little flower head. I like to cook and serve it like asparagus--works great on the grill.
I spent 2 dollars on a pack of mizuna seeds. Ate lots of it then harvested more seeds than I started with. Started some here in NC I brought from California. A very good investment!
Arugula was devastated by cabbage loopers 😢 I have them going under grow lights in the garage doing well there. Pak Choi was saved with BT. Yum. First snow ❄️ yesterday 3”. Have 2 zipper tent greenhouses over lettuce and kale. Hope for a couple more weeks. Zone 5b Chicagoland.
Dr Rhonda Patrick recommends Swiss Chard in smoothies. Lots of health benefits. She freezes beets, kale and spinach before making a smoothie. Freezing breaks down the cells walls which releases the nutrients without cooking.
Great video guys. I just fixed 4 new 25 x 25 garden plots and sewed them with white Dutch and crimson clover. I will put plants in at the end of April. When should I tarp it and should I take the tarps off. Thanks. Ken the blind gardener
Depends on when you want to plant. Definitely want to tarp before the cover crops go to seed. The tarp will probably require about 4 weeks to kill back a dense cover crop.
Would love to see your current video space and the new video space when it's ready and would also love to have a good look through the warehouse and the shop. Keep up the good work. Thanks from Ash Queensland Australia.
Speaking from my own experience, the first time I ate grits and eggs was in Georgia when I was 19. The waitress showed me how to eat them. The first time I had collards in bacon was it Tennessee the same year, I'm sure that there were some people living in California that had eaten them because the're family did, but even now it is hard to find any place (restaurant) on the west coast that makes them. Too bad as they are so delicious!
About those chard stems - people in France and Switzerland argue about what is better, the leaves or the stems. I forget which country likes which thing. But one group feeds the stems to their chickens and makes pies out of the leaves, and the other one feeds their chickens the leaves, and makes raisin tarts with the stems. There's no accounting for tastes!
Always enjoy the show! I'm a grown man, and I've eaten enough collards to make up for his shortfall!! Gonna eat some real soon, I hope! I'm really going to have to get better about growing some of these type veggies mentioned in the video. Broaden my horizons! I'm eating with Greg, he sweats everything down in bacon grease! I still need to get y'all some Love Shack Bacon! Folks, if and when you go to sharpen those tools, PLEASE, PLEASE wear gloves, preferably a nice heavy leather glove. These implements are made of high carbon steel and will really get an edge that can do some damage to you in a hurry! Trust me on this! :)
That’s how we make ours!! Yum! I planted two rows and only three plants germinated. Fall was tough here in Central Texas. We’ve had our first freeze three weeks early...ugh. Can I still replant collards from seed in November in Zone 8a/b?!
I will say in 44 years this year was the first I ever tried collard greens. I cooked them in bacon grease as suggested I think next time I will boil as suggested because my kids did not like the toughness. My question is why can't I get my pok Choi to grow. I bought container mix with fertilizer put it in a ten gallon container and it grew three inches high and then bolts. I've tried this a few times. I've also had the same problem with my lettuces. Those are two things I can not grow. Love Swiss chard since I was a kid. Always been my favorite along with spinach. Also can you explain the difference between container mix with fertilizer and potting soil with fertilizer and potting mix with fertilizer. Where I live dollar general is really the only place I can get it unless I drive an hour.
Y'all mentioned leeks on the grill on the show, I'd like to try some but I HATE onions. What do they taste like ? Kohlrabi what do they taste like, how to cook ? I'd really like an episode on cooking some of the veggies you talk about, also- a second camera for close ups on the seed packs and the trays of transplants. Thanks for the great video, as always. Jim
Leeks aren't strong like onions. You should definitely try them. Kohlrabi tastes like a combo between a turnip and cabbage. It's really good when you make slaw with it.
That's funny what you said about eating collards. I raise collards every year and I've cooked collards dozens of times, but other than checking the flavor, I don't think I've ever really just sat down and ate a mess. But I'm a recent transplant to Georgia -- so hopefully I get a pass.
You should definitely add them to your garden next year. Home grown collards are the best because they're not pumped full of nitrates like store bought collards.
Here in South Carolina, my family always boiled them about 45 min in chicken broth/bouillon with a little cooking oil and salt. Oil takes the bitter edge off and helps soften, improve the flavor/can't explain why. Maybe a quarter cup of healthy neutral cooking oil in an entire big pot of collards. I don't like vinegar on them as many people do, so the softer/milder aftertaste is appealing to me. Of course nothing wrong with these guys' bacon methods either LOL. I pull the larger stems out just like they show in this video. Collards are one of the very most nutritious greens - cruciferous vegetables. A lot of southern restaurants who serve collard greens try to stretch the salt pork typically used to flavor/cook them in. And salt them too heavily. I can't eat them at restaurants. They taste too strong, especially after vinegar is added. No flavor, very raw tasting. Just can't eat them. Hope you have good ones for your first taste!
I'm just learning how to grow corn, only grown 3 crops, but doesn't sufficient water play a huge role in the plumpness of the kernels?...ok, can't wait to watch the rest of your video.
my mom liked to cook turnip greens and mustard together. i may buy some of your mustard and mizuna to try. i am in north Ga (7B) Do Istill have time to plant here or best to wait til spring?
I thought you boys would of been dressed up for Halloween! Lol another nice video.... and you were talking about sanding your handles before linseed oil.... wont that remove your wax that you put on them?
Will keeping a tarp on a garden plot for an extended period of time cause any problems? If yes, what is the recommend amount of time to keep a tarp on your garden?
We've kept one on the garden for 6 weeks at a time. Some folks leave the tarp on the garden all winter. If you're going to leave it for a long time, we would suggest pulling it back on occasion and watering the soil.
TRAVIS GREG HELP IM IN WEST VIRGINIA HIGHS BEEN 50 TO 70S DROPPING INTO 20S TONIGHT HIGH 50S TOMORROW. MY BROCCOLI CABBAGE CAULIFLOWER WAS LOOKING GREAT !!!! OVER PAST 3 OR 4 DAYS I HAVE BEEN FINDING HOLES ALL OVER THEM AND SMALL GREEN POOP BUT NO BUGS. WHAT IS GOING ON WHAT DO I NEED TO DO ??? THANK YOU BOTH FOR YOUR TIME !!!!
It's a bit late for corn, isn't it? Greg eating that fresh corn makes me want some cooked in my cast iron fryer in the oven, yummy. It is so good cooked like that, but like Greg I can eat sweet corn straight from the fresh cob. Thank the good Lord for the rain. I cooked fresh turnips and mustard from my containers garden yesterday, my son enjoyed them very much. Fried cornbread, chicken and greens. I'm going to buy that gizmo Travis is showing now. I need all the help I can get. 😅
Virginia button weed is the devil in a lawn. It reproduces with seeds and sprouts. You have to attack with pre emergent and post emergent. Unfortunately the post emergents that work can't be used above 90 degrees or it kills the lawn. Here in Louisiana it gets above 90 degrees pretty quick and stays for a long time.
Glad you asked! I thought Greg just hired Travis out of school or something to help grow the business. Silly me. Great that they can work together and grow the business!
Haha. Tennessee considers itself as being in the southeast. But when folks from the Deep South talk about the southeast, they are referring to much more south -- like areas that hardly ever receive snow.
On the premium greens mix... Do you crop leaves, or just cut everything and it will just grow back? You can loosen the lid on your linseed oil, and heat it in a pot of water... don't get caught by your wife... but it's safer than just doing it over a burner directly in the can. Nothing wrong with your current studio... but it's probably like a gun safe, and a garden... never big enough.
The current studio is functional, but Greg want's his office back. On the premium greens mix, just cut it and it will keep growing back. Grab a handful, and cut with a knife just like you were mowing it.
That would depend a lot on your soil type. We have very sandy soils which don't retain nutrients very well at all. Also the extreme heat here burns up organic matter in the soil pretty quickly. So we have to add more nutrients than most folks.
Love the cooking lesson. I agree, if you haven't eaten collards, don't tell nobody!!
😜

B.t. works well when sprayed early. If the worm problem gets really bad, you can switch to spinosad.
Dr Rhonda Patrick recommends Swiss Chard in smoothies. Lots of health benefits. She freezes beets, kale and spinach before making a smoothie. Freezing breaks down the cells walls which releases the nutrients without cooking.
A Swiss chard smoothie sounds delightful!
I've added beet greens or diced raw beets to smoothies. My energy drink!

I like to roll the collard leaves up into a tight roll and cut the roll into quarter-inch pieces and they come out in thin strips.
That's a good way to do it!
This is the way I do it too.
Would love to see your current video space and the new video space when it's ready and would also love to have a good look through the warehouse and the shop. Keep up the good work. Thanks from Ash Queensland Australia.
We'll try to do that when we get the new studio ready.
I love Swiss chard, and taste is awesome! It is easy to grow! Love them!!
I like it too. And very easy to grow!

While you are wiping down those tool handles also wipe BLO on the metal. It acts as a rust preventive.
Good idea!
Yep, would love to see your current video space and what the new space will look like.
We'll try to do that soon.
finally trying corn this year cant wait for harvest time!
Awesome, hope you get a great crop
Collards are good and we like kale. I always plant a fall greens patch. Yum
Fall greens are the best!
I really envy you guys. Here in So. Cal we’ve got high winds, 90 degrees, 5% humidity and wild fires. We may not even get in a winter garden.
Praying for you guys! Hope they get to the bottom of all the craziness out there soon!
Hope it gets better for you guys. Those wildfires are bad news.

We had a fellow the other day who came in and bought a trowel. He had cut himself before he walked out the door. Gotta be careful with sharp tools!
You can put the boiled linseed oil on the metal as well. It’s a good treatment. It’s gonna chip off, but it preserves the metal setting up.
👍
Enjoyed the show, as always. Have you guys discussed composting?
We have not. Probably because we don't do any composting ourselves. Not that we shouldn't, we just don't currently.
I love your shows. Thanks for the corn tips. Yes that's the way you cook collards I cut mine to but either way is good
This cool weather is a great time to cook a pot of collards!
My first batch of kohlrabi is almost ready to harvest. I have two more plantings to follow.
Sounds like you have a great succession plan!
That’s how we make ours!! Yum!
I planted two rows and only three plants germinated. Fall was tough here in Central Texas. We’ve had our first freeze three weeks early...ugh. Can I still replant collards from seed in November in Zone 8a/b?!

Plants bolt when they get stressed. Either not enough water or too hot usually.
Hey guys. Same zone as y'all. Can you give me a short list of veggies we can grow all winter?
lettuce, carrots, beets, turnips, mustard, collards, kale, rutabagas, radishes, broccoli, cauliflower, onions, leeks, shallots, elephant garlic, bok choy, cabbage, kohlrabi, spinach ... not really a short list, but lots of possibilities there.
Hoss Tools...what zone are you in?
Y'all mentioned leeks on the grill on the show, I'd like to try some but I HATE onions. What do they taste like ? Kohlrabi

It's that time of year!
I have never had collards myself either!! I live up north in wisconsin i am just not a leaf fan maybe i need to open up my horizons a little???!!
Definitely need to try them!
I LOVE swiss chard!!! Wish I could see the picture on the seed packets!
The photos on the packets are the same as the product photos on our website.
I love Swiss chard, too. I learned to eat it in Spain 🇪🇸. I would crave collards or kale and it was the only cookable green I could find.

For the linseed oil, heat it safely by heating a pot of water first, then just set the can of linseed in it to warm it.

Oh yeah. Plant some every few weeks and have it all fall/winter long!
Kohlrabi makes excellent sauerkraut!
Can you do this planting in oregon now?
Probably depends on what of Oregon. If you're near the coast, probably yes. If you're in the mountains, probably no.
I live on Oregon coast. I use an app on my phone called "seed to spoon".
Love to see a tour of your workshop as well as your farm ,when I can pin my son down I will get him to film our place for you to see.
Sounds good! Send us a link when you do post that!
I have seen people underplanting with clover- would that help get the corn fed?
You could do that -- so the clover would fix nitrogen and feed the corn.
Ive always washed my greens with cold salty water. Ive found the salt will run bugs and caterpillars out quick
Interesting. Never used salt in the wash, but could see where it would help.
If you add some baking soda to your greens wash water it will make the sand and aphids come off easier.
That's the second time we've heard that tonight. Might have to try that!
I like to saute my collards with butter, garlic and diced onion.
Nothing wrong with that!
I live in north Huntsville, Alabama is it too late to plant seed now? Zone 7
You could still get by with collards and some of the more cold hardy crops.
I’m growing good ol’ collards for the first time and have no idea how to prepare em! Lol. Thanks for the recipe Greg!
They're not that hard to prepare. Take a little longer to cook than mustard or turnips because they're not quite as tender.
Would adding sulfur help brassicas growth ?
Haven't heard of using sulphur. A little calcium helps though!
Yep - lime (or calcium) really helps them cos they like a high (alkaline) pH. Adding sulfur will lower the pH so I wouldn’t do it!
