- This is the mid May update to show you around my space. I will tour you through my indoor grow room, greenhouse, vegetable garden, and backyard. I have just passed my average last frost date and already have a lot growing outside!
I grow flowers and vegetables in Saskatchewan, Canada. My cold hardiness zone is zone 4. I have an average of 110 frost free growing days each year. The past few years have seen our temperatures go as low as -37C (-34.6F) to as high as 37C (98.6F). Come see what and how I grow in these conditions. - Хобби
Good day, Prairie Plantgirl and Buster!👋
What a fun place your greenhouse is these days!😃 The plants look great!
I loved the tour of your yard...your enchanting garden is waking up beautifully!😃 So much to take in!
You are such an encouragement to gardeners of all ages! Your plants grown from seed always wow me!👍
We are having a stormy month. I had shade cloth up to block hail...2 days ago. The cloth came off partly and damaged the tassels on a few corn stalks, so I am hand pollinating the cobs with no tassels on their stalks. It should work.👩🏾🌾
I harvested my first Purple Beauty bell pepper this morning. 💃
Prairie Plantgirl, thanks for that beautiful tour! You are so inspiring!💕
I have hand pollinated corn before. It can work quite well, just get good coverage on all those silks. Hopefully the weather improves for you soon.
@PrairiePlantgirl Thanks for the encouragement!💕
Hello fm calgary! Love ur garden vids! Thx u
Glad you like them!
I really love your videos- always learn something new or get ideas for my garden. Thank you for posting! Hope you hav a great growing season
Thank you! You too!
I am in Saskatchewan too, I was hoping planting out lot of stuff this weekend. My plants are so ready and I get impatience too. My winter sowing did awesome, lots of flowers and vegetable's.
Sounds great!
looks beautiful. In Ontario, the tulips are starting to get done, and the alliums just started to pop. Got buds on the peonies and irises now. Some of my peonies are gonna bloom for the first time this year, so I'm excited. Just planted out most of my annual flowers and foliage plants this weekend. Just got some stragglers left now re: flowers. I just sowed some perennial mums, forget me not, and biennial holllyhocks now, ho, and sunflowers. For veggies, I have amaranth (we use the leaves), beans, squash, cucumbers, bitter melon, and some potatoes I started from seed left to plant, the rest are all in.
Apart from succession sowings of beets, greens, etc, I think I'm mostly done!
It sounds like you’ve been busy! Have a great garden season!
My first plants of Blue Iris are starting to bloom now, I never grew them before, I planted them at the right time, but they didn't bloom the first year. They look great now this year against my Choisya.
I’m glad they are settled in now and putting on a show for you!
As of today, May 18th in Ottawa Ontario, everything is planted in the ground. Even with the full moon coming up,the overnight lows are around 10 celcius.
That’s great!
You plant way more annuals than us. We rely on perennials and bulbs for spring colour, but we are trying to expand. I just harvested bok choy and radishes that I sowed under cover-spinach in the way, with beets, rapini, second arugula, second komatsuma. No sign of parsnips, I may have to re-sow.
If your butterfly weed is a milkweed variant, ours is always very late. I think it’s dead then it shoots up in June!
I used to mostly have perennials in my old yard. I’ve really gotten the seed starting bug. I keep finding more things I want to grow and try. I am still holding out for the butterfly weed. My other milkweeds are just starting to poke through the ground. Hopefully this new one made it through the winter. Good luck with those parsnips - they can take forever to germinate.
WONDERFUL TOUR! Thank you so much. By watching yoyr vids, I am getting a lot of great ideas and tips for my yard that had only grass when we moved in this winter. Our home sits on 1/2 acre. Do you have about that much space, too!
My lot is just under a 1/4 acre
@@PrairiePlantgirl I am shocked! You have a lot for that size lot. It shows how much you can grow!! Thx for answering my question 😊
😎👍
isnt ok to get sweet peas out? i think they dont mind a frost.
It is fine to have them out. I have a few things in the greenhouse that could be outside.
