Thanks to Meg Grows Plants and The Cottage Peach for guest hosting on this video! We're trying to give you more perspectives from around the world...The Epic Gardening Multiverse EXPANDS!
@maruiacancerc😊😅i😅😅
😅😅❤🎉
Not in my climat...I tried to sow edamame soy beans and camomile seeds..I am still waiting 8 days, 0 germination! They quicky dried out..
Buffalo Bird Womans Garden , a book about growing corn , beans and squash .
Question/suggestion
When is the plant no longer transplanted, under stress time?
Can you do a video on basil, year round, ya know like temperature control and stuff not to do? What about like scorching and what can be saved or brought back.
Mahalo
Your entire community and video lessons are so awesome. And I mean AWESOME. Thank you so much. I love your wisdom and sharing. Love is always the answer.
My tomatoes are still green....i cant even think of planting new things lol
Mine too! Lol they are taking foreverrrrrrr
Be patient. Pretty soon, you'll have more tomatoes than you know what to do with!
Same slow season here!
Fried green tomatoes 🍅✨
Glad I'm not the only one with tomatoes taking their sweet time
Fun fact about brussel sprouts, if you're older and hated them as a kid, you hated the old varieties. In the 90s people started breeding out the bitterness, and modern varieties are waaaay better than they used to be. If you haven't tried them in a while, try them again!
And here I thought the reason I decided I was okay with them in my old age, was because I finally had them roasted. Perhaps the combo is what really clinched it for me. Now the only thing I haven’t conquered is Lima Beans.
I also think its how people cook it, if you boil them, they kinda taste like diapers in my opinion. But if you cut them in half, oil them lightly and roast them, my favorite vegetable! It tastes amazing!
We bake them at 350° with olive oil, lemon juice & sea salt. Easy & yummy.
It wasn't the brussel sprouts fault, it's that they were steamed, IMO.
@hummingbird3771 that definitely is part of it too. The bitter compounds break down at higher temps so frying or baking is better than steaming or boiling
I feel like many people are learning about fall gardening this year. It’s been all over my for you page. As for me I didn’t get a spring/summer garden in so I’m glad for this video and all the content about it to help me grow a little bit before the start of the next spring season. Thanks for all you do. Love the channel 😊
Absolutely! This summer has been very hot, especially at night here in my deep south garden. As you learn, definitely go deeper into local climate information than what 'zone' you are in, just fyi. Can be very misleading and lacking in true depth. Get to know any local farmers or long time gardeners, they are the most helpful. As a bonus, might also be willing to sell or trade seeds with you that are already acclimated to your local climate patterns, which can make a big difference in your success!
I Love this! We did something similar where we live out. This video actually gave us inspiration and hope that we can still become successful, thanks so much for this video.
So far I've always just planted the bottom of an organic celery from the market and it grows very well and produces just enough celery for my needs. I usually put the bottom of the celery in a small dish of water and plant it in the ground as soon as new leaves shoot out of the center.
My winter sow celery was a bust .I put them in the ground and they dissappear unlike my onions that am still harvesting
Me too, I have 2 in my garden now ,so beautiful, great bushy plant .Next to tomatoes and basil.
So happy to be a part of this collab! ❤️ Fall is such an underrated growing season!
So happy to have you!
Fantastic season for all these tasty brassicas and roots!
Fall garden girls ❤ you killed it Meg!
@@thecottagepeachso did you queen!
@@jacquesinthegardenroots are my fav!
Just planted spinach🥬🥬🥬 this morning. 🙂 Got my carrots in last week. 🥕🥕🥕 My beets made it in the ground two weeks ago. I sunk their seeds in the ground around my cabbage knowing that I’d soon be harvesting them. 😊 I am getting into fall gardening for the first time this year!
Like the new format--keep it! It allows us to see different varieties of plants and the experiences of people who grow them.
Glad to hear it!
Agree. Nice to also hear from different zones
I also agree specially with people who live in different colder zones (I'm in zone 5a so seeing plants in zone 6 was fun to see)
I appreciate that you featured northern gardeners! I would add spinach and kale to the northerners garden
I so appreciate getting more recommendations and information for zones 6a-6b. Living up this way I love having these gardening videos but would get frustrated because not all of the recommendations or time tables fit with my climate. Can't wait for more!
Yes! I was just thinking the same thing.
I am in 10a here in the Bay Area and my tomatoes are only just showing signs that they might turn red!!! Actually I have a very prolific determinate that has given me some tasty yard snacks recently so I can’t complain. But my tomatoes do not look like they did last year. It’s been a rough year in the garden. But thank you Epic staff for all the tips, tricks and ideas! I have more flowers in my garden than I ever did! I have cucumbers, peppers, summer squash and more! And all in containers since all I have is a patio to work with. Keep them coming!
I feel that our Bay Area climate while great is often chaotic (on the cold side) In San Francisco where I live it's so variable: cool, cold, overcast, sunny, heat wave, moderate. These types of weather are what we have all summer. My tomatoes have started ripening but I only grow cherry tomatoes so they can ripen because the coldest summers are here in SF:) lol
Hi! Was having a not so great day due to some health issues, but your videos always cheer me up! Happy to see the new faces, and I’m very excited to see that summer gardening isn’t quite over yet, and that we’re creeping into fall gardening. Love feeling the inspiration of change right around the corner, and wondering what the new season will bring us. More epic gardening and greener thumbs for us all, I hope! Thank you for helping me learn! 💚
I said this in another video that was all excited about planting in August, so I'll add it here, too. If you live in the Deep South US; please don't plant in August lol! Unless you are planting in trays inside until the middle of September, you'll only get disappointed. While many places have hot days like the south, not many places stay in the 80s with very high humidity at night! That is what does the plants in, not getting that break at night. Flowers are rare, and the pollen in the few that show up is too sticky to be properly pollinated. Agriculture zones actually don't mean much. I'm in the same zone as Pacific Northwest, but definitely don't share much in common with that whole zone other than average first and last frost dates, which doesn't mean a whole lot.
We dont plant anything until mid September, like onions, garlic, brassicas. For leafy greens, we don't start until October! We often don't have a first frost until late November, sometimes even December, and not a first freeze until nearly January. Plenty of time for greens to grow, which are sweetened a bit by a light frost, as you did say. Anyway, happy gardening, no matter what time you need to start it!
LOL true
Hello, thank you for your comment! When would you recommend planting flowers such as chamomile, calendula, etc in the south?
@@IAmHisBeloved5 Hi, thanks! For myself personally, I usually plant both those starting indoors in mid February. If I was starting outside, mid March, depending on the weather forecast. Sometimes it is still too cold until just about April at night, but most of the time the seeds will sprout when they think it is warm enough themselves even if you put them in the ground a couple weeks early. Or if in a container definitely bring them out for the day and inside at night if it does get too chilly.
I actually have some calendula from this spring that is doing its best to make it through this heat right now, but it isn't very pretty at the moment lol. I've never planted it again for Fall, as it will usually last until frost if it makes it through the heat. I didnt get to plant any chamomile this year. I would think it can probably be started again about the first of September if starting outside, depending on how far south you are, might get a decent harvest of flowers before any frost. A lot of chamomile is native to the Italian regions, so looking into their season for it can help you decide on the best route to take for your situation.
I'm 30 miles from the Mississippi Gulf Coast, and even just 50 miles north of me it is a totally different climate as far as cold goes. They get a few inches of snow a few times a year, and we get one inch of snow about every 7 years or so if that lol. I hope this helps you some 😊
Yep, I’m in San Antonio and it’s still over 100° every day and my planting guide says I can plant a lot now, but it’s still too hot. I’m about done gardening here.
Being from the RGV it’s so dang hot outside, I would try and garden early in the a.m. but jeez that heat is already out! 😅😅 Even at 7 or 8 it’s still 100 lol I feel like none of my plants would make it.
Very glad to see everyone else is talking about how late their tomatoes are ripening this year. I’ve been wondering what I did wrong that I haven’t had any yet. I was a little bit late getting them in the ground, but I thought surely I would have had my first fruit at least 1 week if not 2 ago. Mine finally started ripening in the past 2-3 days though I’m super excited to have my first one for breakfast tomorrow. My plants are absolutely massive and are absolutely covered in tomatoes, but they were not wanting to ripen until just now. Looking a lot better than the tomatoes lots of other folks around here have going though
It seems like all my veg are late to ripen this year - Tomatoes, peppers, and cucumbers are growing so slowly. Not a single Zucchini yet!
Mine finally started ripening at the second week of July, on vines that started in February (indoors, of course)
Harvesting a lot of tomatoes already.....yet still have lots of green ones as well
I'm in zone 6a, and I am having a very slow growing season too! I am used to swimming in produce from late June on, but I barely have anything coming in still. I've been able to freeze some green beans and ferment a couple jars of cucumbers so far, but I haven't been able to preserve anything else. I feel like I'm just sitting around twiddling my thumbs waiting on the food to grow and ripen! So weird. Really interesting that others are struggling with this too.
I prefer golden beets too but have found a wonderful way to make the red ones. I cut them thin, ferment them layered directly in salt and maple syrup as a thick coating, as the water comes out of the beets I remove some of the mixture and dribble a bit of water back in. I spice with cumin, dill, and garlic. After fermentation I slow cook it over night with browned ground meat, and top it with probiotic yogurt right before serving.
Hi! Zone 4b here and SO happy to see this kind of branching out on this channel to make it an even better resource for gardeners in ALL Zones!
Great advice. It's hard to think about fall when it's still 105 🥵
...are you kidding!? That's *all* I can think about right now.
@@eventhisidistaken 😂😂😂😂😂
Such a great list! Especially appreciate Danny's harvesting tips for less familiar plants.
Thank you Valerie ❤
In my neck of the woods, Zone 9a, the Great Northwestern Florida Panhandle, unlike South Florida, we don’t ever get consistently cool temps. Even in December and January we can have really warm humid days followed by a hard freeze. Last year in December, we had three consecutive nights with temps in low 20s and it killed most everything in my garden except my carrots and parsley. None of that keeps me from continuing to try to grow fall crops. Right now, August 7th, there’s a heat advisory with temps hitting 98 today. It really won’t cool off until the end of September. I have some lettuce starts but I’m having to keep them in the shade to keep them alive, hope springs eternal in a gardener’s heart. 😁
Am in a seed starting frenzy. Temps were slow to rise in San Diego this season, so we are not in late summer yet but more in the middle. 😅
And thx to your warehouse crew in SD who gave me a tour when I stopped by recently. Even though they were fully busy packing up for your warehouse move to CO.
Thx for the seeds! Thx for my first raised birdie bed! And thx for the great garden advice! Keep it coming.
We here in all our backyard garden 'Edens' appreciate your channel and collaborations! 😊
Thanks for another informative and timely video! It was great to see some new faces including one in my zone, although I missed Chris and her input. I hope she'll be back on the channel soon!
I hope so, too! She took a bit of a break
Oh yay! More info for lower zones.. ohh, like zone 6. I know hard winter is a bummer for year round gardening channels, but give us a bone in zone 4, at least get someone in an area with consistent snow cover in the winter! Our local gardening FB groups are hopping with people wanting to know what they can still plant!
You can also grow early bird corn, cilantro and most herbs as well! And some zucchini too! Lots of stuff I am experimenting this year for fall gardening here in 7a-b
Thank you so much for all of your info and seeds and straw and…while not everything went as planned, this was a practice year. Next year my garden will be so much bigger and better and delicious. Thank you and all of your guest gardeners. I’m so happy!
I’m so glad you posted this. New gardener here from the Bay Area Northern California. Thanks for giving me ideas. 😊
Glad to hear!
So excited to see Meg on here! She's such a fun gardener and I love all of her chaos planting❤
Thank you for the sweet comment!! 🫶🏼🥲❤️
Thank you for these suggestions because most of my garden was either devoured by wildlife and pests or the hot summer sun and drought, so I’m looking to replant right now.
This is my first year in a house with a yard so I’m excited to see this, I had kind of thought I was done for the year. Gotta get some radishes going! ❤❤❤
Love when you guys do collabs! Great video as always :)
Your ability to inspire people to grow wherever they reside is amazing. Keep up the great work!
What a great reminder to get those seeds in the ground - I packed my basket and wrote the labels while watching and am heading out now👍
I love beets and their green , never ate as a kid but now always growing them in zone 4a
Kevin, Kevin, Kevin! The quality of your videos is mind blowing. Love everything about this one. So exciting to see you and botanical brand. Can’t fathom a better fit for a superb brand expansion. Bravo! 👏👏👏
I love snapdragons! I like to pinch their sides to make them “talk” and watch the kids giggle. (Ok, I’m the kid.) 😄
My snapdragons get so long and leggy. I’d love to know more about pruning them to get more blooms.
Remember to pick up your Botanical Interests seeds for your August planting at the Epic Gardening store.
I recently planted some of these picks in my containers and raised beds.
Great tips, y’all. Never knew I was supposed to soak my parsnips. That explains my very poor germination. Going out to soak my seeds now.
and always buy new seed They dont keep
Newbie here! 👋 love ur channel. I planted beans after watching what can be stil planted in July and I was shocked how fast the seeds germinated lol. I’m now ordering mustard spinach, golden beets and daikon seeds..!!! Thank you so much.
Yeah they sprout up really quickly!
Im up in 8b/9a and needed this boost! Did a lot more flaking than I did garden tending despite big dreams and a decent start - and it really shows. Shiz is lookin' not colorful and way shabby. Redemption is near! 🤘🌱🌱🌱
I LOVE that you threw snapdragons in, that's my very favorite flower ever, and did not know the flowers were edible! THAT is why I love watching you 😊😊😊
Thank you for including items for colder climates! I’m zone 6 and it was very helpful
Great video!
I just planted some peas from my early crop that I let dry on the vine; hoping for a bumper this year. Fingers are crossed.
I'm definitely going to try some of the root veg in the areas that I'm about to clear out.
So happy to see you guys colab with Meg!! Love love love her chaos carrots and her very fun positive approaches to gardening!
You’re amazing. Thank you!! ❤️
Chaos carrots are a GREAT tip!
Wow love Snap Dragons as a small child we had them on the farm. The blue or purple co n flowers also. Later the other flowers were Red Tulips over 175 years ago planted at my home. Always love the artistic look they present. Have fun and enjoy your garden.
Man thanks so much!!! I have most of these seeds so can’t wait! I’m gonna look into snap dragon I missed my spring time opportunity to plant flowers
I picked up some of your seeds this year and have had great germination. Thanks for this very inspiring video. I am excited about my fall garden.
Just when I thought the season has passed! Ordering a few seed packets tonight! Thank you so much for this video jam packed full of great info! ❤❤
Glad to hear it!
You should see if Jess from Roots and Refuge wants to collaborate. She can cover Southern east coast & find someone like Luke MI Gardner for north Midwest. I realize hard to cover everywhere. But these new additions i have never seen or know because i don't follow any other platform outside RUclips. Way too many controversies over FP, tok, IG, X etc.
Andrew Veggie Boys for farm perspective would be amazing too 😉
Always looking to add more perspectives!
Oh good I’m not the only person who thinks beets taste like dirt. I have developed a taste for the golden beets but I have to add a vinaigrette over them and then I love them… my mother would be so proud
I'm in NW Florida (Zone 8b) and it doesn't even think about stemming our brutal, humid hot summer until September. I'm buying most of what everyone mentioned in this video from Botanical Interests in a few weeks! 😁😁
Love seeing suggestions for colder zones
I didn't know you could hear me lol thank you for doing this video, I skipped gardening this year to help my dad and step mom then the heat just convinced me to not do it either. So I'm feeling the FOMO now and looking forward to a lil harvest 😊
Great features! I finally had success with celery and now it’s popping up everywhere. For me, laying a board on my carrot seeds helped to not let them dry out.
I am going to be trying beets in my first fall garden this year. I am so excited. I love beets.
As long as I have overnight lows in the 90° - 95° range, NO NEW PLANTING! South edge of Phoenix AZ( Sun Lakes), last week was 117° nearly everyday for more than a week. I am preparing to plant 10 raised beds, 80 sq.ft., with Brassicas, lettuces, carrots, and winter squash, some herbs, snap peas, maybe tomatoes ( only 1 or 2 plants)all starting this month into Sept. I got semi-control over the birds and the rabbits this spring and summer, maybe someday a greenhouse.
Just got my second round of herbs, spinach and lettuce started 🥰
MEG!!!!!!!!! One of my favorite TikTok gardeners! I love that she part of the Epic multiverse!
Hiiiii!!! Fancy seeing you here❤
We love her!
love your vids! keep up the great work!
So happy to see Dagny and Meg!
thanks for the great ideas for fall. Just saw that the PNW may have a mild winter. I'm on my way out to plant a bunch of new crops in my empty spots.
Snapdragons are one of my favourite flowers, love watching the bees going in and out the flowers. Had no idea they were edible
Oh! This was a wonderful video! Loved the collab with other growing regions and it's fun to hear from more people! Thank you!
Inspired!! I have most of these seeds already, so thank you for inspiring me to plant them. 😊
I bought seeds for the farm from Botanical Interest. I used a lot of them for another succession of zinnias. The ones from Botanical Interest came up faster, the blooms are bigger, and they look healthier. They’re stunning!
SWEET! My summer vegetables are still growing but I could definitely back them up with a fall harvest.
Thanks!
Thanks so much for the extra zone information! I'm in New England and your videos have been helpful, but then I often have to look up how that translates into the East Coast.
You are so welcome!
Hi Kevin, thanks so much for this. I can't see a point to celery🤔, too stringy and don't have the patience to strip of its 'strings'.
But I love burpees golden beetroot. I grew mine through the summer, and it can be tricky in hot weather. They are absolutely DELICIOUS eaten raw. This season my albino beetroot has been quite successful. Also delicious eaten raw and actually very sweet😋😋😋
Happy Autumn gardening everyone 👍👍
@EpicGardening_1.. Good evening everyone @EpicGardening. I received a message saying I had 'won something'. Not sure if that was from you🤔, but the ❤ was more than sufficient😁
We have really been fighting with grasshoppers & earwigs this year.Maybe this is the answear.Very helpful.Thank you.
I never knew that the reason I always think beets taste like dirt was DNA! Thanks for the video with the different zone choices!
I got snap pea seedlings growing in my apartment window right now. I hope September cools things down here in Texas, cause they’re getting tall quick! This is my first season growing them and I’m really excited 😬
Celery actually like colder weather, which is why it is harder to grow during warm months. I live in Ventura County, where we start Celery as transplants to be planted here in mid-August but are usually through growing celery by the end of June. Celery will bolt if you get a heatwave too, which is why we grow it during the cooler months. Also Celery likes water, it is made up of 90% water which why most people use it for diets. Watering it too little, can give dry, stringy stalks. It is also best to water 1 or 2 days prior to harvest allowing enough time for the plant to pull that moist in. If you ever harvest Celery and it goes limp, just cut into separate ribs, stick a glass or vase of water, cut end in the glass, allowing water to draw up in the rib. Place in refrigerator, within a few hours the celery should be crisp again.
@EpicGardening_1. Cool! Thank you very much but maybe you could give someone else the opportunity to win.
Planted in may and I’m just now starting to get flowers for the veggies.
Totally loved this! So much great information and lots of choices. Thank you making this!😊
What a fantastic video!! This format is a must at least every few times, por favor! Great work everyone! 😁🌸
Thank you for including gardeners from New England! 💖💖💖
This inspires me to get out & plant in my 5a garden
4:34 I need the dark beets for borscht.
I was just searching through old videos on this yesterday, perfect timing!
The salt shaker carrot idea is awesome haha! def gonna try that!
I grow Detroit Red Beets in my flower garden for it’s beautiful foliage.
i cut the end off a celery i got at the grocery store. put it in an empty tuna can with water. when stalks started growing i planted outside. had celery for several months. i picked as i needed like rhubarb. it was really good.
Very, very informative. I'm definitely going to use some of these tips to improve my productivity in the garden, especially of the greens. Thanks.
I just started next year's potato pot today. I had a volunteer pop up in my mulch pile, so, found a largeish bag, rolled the edges down, and parked Madame Spud into about 10" of bagged topsoil. She'll just sit there until spring of next year when I start putting straw around her.
Oh, and I discovered this year that most Green Onions sold in the Stupormarkets are really baby Scallions.
"Oh, you poor child, here, have some dirt."
(A month later) "Hey, I know you!"
Great tutorial, as ALWAYS! never stop. love your channel guys.
I like the multi zone advice video.🎉🎉
Great information, thanks for sharing. 😊
Props on expanding the zones! Great video as always and excited to send this to my friends in the north.
Glad to see the east coast and my state, Massachusetts represent! I'm getting my Brassicas ready next week!
I live in zone 3b-4a, with a frost date of mid Sept 😢
What I’ve had success with is planting in large pots on the deck until frost then bringing indoors. A brief bug watch quarantine in the porch, escorting spiders 🕷️ back out to the garden, then into the south face sunniest windows. My son and grand kids were delighted to pull fresh carrots on New Year’s Day !
Gotta love snap dragons and how the seed pods resemble tiny skulls 💀!
I didn’t know they were edible thanks. Awesome video compilation. Blessings💕💕💕💕
Thank you for repping us in the north coastal MA lady. Eating fresh chards and frisé AKA endive in October sounds like a treat.
Here for it!!
OK I just got more gardening motivation AND I even have snapdrgaon seeds from your last sale. Thank you!!
You are so welcome!
I planted my Lakota squash a little while ago, and I’m really hoping for good results! I get maybe 3 full hours of direct sunlight in my garden space at max, so I’m just kind of crossing my fingers over here 😅
Fingers crossed as well for you!
Will they have time to get hard before winter?
@@epicgardeningI didn't think you could plant winter squash this late in the year. I grow a baby butternut squash, which I start in spring, and it's not ready to harvest until about October. Maybe Lakota variety takes less time to ripen?
I'm trying to venture out into growing flowers also. Snapdragons and Calendula were my first experience that did well. Didn't know you could eat Snapdragons though. Thanks for sharing.
I DESPISED cilantro as a child, but when I got pregnant at age 19, I started craving it and I still love it.
I LOVE these “this month” videos!!!
Thank you for the informative video, motivates me after some garden plants didn’t do as well as I expected. Appreciate the input from other zones!
I love this video so much! Thank you! This is my first year growing plants in a community garden plot and I thought the year was pretty much winding down…til now! I love how each gardener showed HOW to plant the seeds too! I’m thinking I’m gonna try beets! 😋
Doing some fall crop experimenting this year since I have a very long growing season in NE FL. And I just ordered my garlic!!!! Have you guys heard of the heat zone map by American Horticultural Society? It's something that can be used in addition to regular gardening zones and it makes more sense to me because the regular zones are so various in weather. I am in 9A but have to do things so much different than a mid-California 9A due to the heat.
And the humidity.
This is very cool, somehow haven’t seen that map before, thanks for sharing!
@@puggirl415 for sure! The combo is brutal!
I just got in from seeding some snap peas and this video popped up on my front page! I'm in zone 4 though, so I'm not going to hold my breath lol!
I love beets, too! My 5 year old loves them pickled with boiled eggs. Botanical Interest sells such great seeds!
So I just started growing plants and I did butternut back in like April. So squash borers have def been an issue. However I have t lost a plant yet and I think it’s cause of how I planted it.
I didn’t hang them but let them vine on the ground. I noticed those tendrils rooted and were the saving graces of my squash plant when I had to amputate at the base. Thankfully I was able to save everyone and everything is still flowering.
Next year I’m going to spiral out my squash from a center point so I can get those back up roots going. Wish me luck.
