    Years ago we’re we on about 5 acres of Colorado prairie with ideas of grandeur. We went to my mamas house and dug out about 25 small aspens to line the driveway. After hours and hours of digging up and then replanting it was dark and we were exhausted. So we decided to wrap chicken wire around them in the morning. However when we got up not a single one was there. The deer had munched them down to nothing. They must have though we’d planted them as a special treat. We quickly discovered why no one had gardens or trees. Since moving we haven’t had to battle the deer so much. It was just heart breaking to have these great plans ruined. Keeping your family in our thoughts and prayers!! ❤

    Tipper, You and Matt remind me of growing up! Daddy n Mama and all us kids sitting on the Gliders. Somebody gave my Daddy one for fixing his lawnmower n tiller plow! He sanded or down n repainted it, oiled or up a lil and gave to Mama for Mother's Day! He painted if Green and White. She was tickled to death over it! Some days after working in the garden n sweeping the yards with Brush Brooms where the push mower had flung grass n weeds in the yard, Her n Daddy would sit in the yard and watch all the kids play! They'd drink a cup of coffee n talk! They drank coffee all day long. Also y'all remind me of me and my husband when our kids were little and the grandkids! After working in the garden, and all the chores were done, we'd sit with a glass of sweet tea n talk n watch the kids play! When my husband passed, or took me a long time to sit in the yard bc that was something as did together and or hurt to bad. After awhile, I missed or and found that I felt closer to him and the Lord. I live in a holler here in N Ga mtns and it's do quite n peaceful. I can't get around hardly and I'm kinda housebound! I got a porch swing and someday I'll sit out there. I miss gardening do bad cause I've done if my whole life. The deer has eat all my flowers near bout and it ain't much out there anymore. Y'all prepare for a hot summer this year n a stormy one! I'll keep y'all in my prayers and pra y your garden fairs well. I'm do happy I ran across your channel. I sure do enjoy or Hun. God Bless your Homestead n Family. Prayers for Miss Cindy n Granny! 🙏🙏❤❤

    The pretty yellow flowers are I believe to be a type of buttercup. We had them from my grandma but didn’t get to get a start to take to our new house back in 1997. I wish we could have. Being from my grandma,they were very special to me as we lost grandma 1 yr after we moved! They spread every year!

    I just got your book!! I can't wait to look at it!! My Grandparents were from Paintsville, and Johnson Kentucky! Through DNA, I have found that my ancestors (paternal) were original settlers in Appalachia (from England, Ireland)--I grew up a bit with my Kentucky grandparents, so I love when you interview the older people that you know. I loved when you said in one of your videos that Okra was called Okry, and that potatoes were sometimes called "arsh" potatoes. (just a side note, my great grandpa would have definitely worked in the Van Lear coal mine, and by DNA, I did find out that I am related to Loretta Lynn/her family (my great great grandparents were literally married---a Butcher and a Webb, lol), and June Carter Cash (because of the Carters). lol

    Tipper, take some of your best recipes and convert them so that you can make them in your insta-pot. I live alone and always make one or two pots of food and always have something put up, especially in the summer. You could be working outside and your insta-pot could be fixing dinner. Make enough for Granny and Miss Cindy to take the next day. I make my soups and chili and overnight. I was a nurse and it was nice to come home to a meal.

    I have a suggestion for tomato stakes. I buy 1/2” electrical conduit that comes in 10’ lengths from Home Depot. It is easily cut with tubing cutters if desired. They don’t rust and can be saved from year to year. The cost is minimal and cheaper than most other alternatives. By the way, we love your channel.

  • @davidstoddard9160
    @davidstoddard9160 Год назад +1

    There are many varities of radishes, and some can be bitter and that is true of other things in the same family of plants. One of the secrets is as early as possible to plant and harvest them, because heat effects the amount of bitterness also.

  • @stef1lee
    @stef1lee Год назад +1

    I love to make radishes like greens and potatoes. The radish greens taste like mustard greens, and when cooked, radishes taste like potatoes. So, so yum! BTW - if you use mulch in the green house, you'll need to use a pre-emergent because mulch is a pre-dirt. Once it breaks down, it's dirt and it doesn't prevent anything...it feeds. It is widely used as a barrier but unless you use a pre-emergent...you're basically feeding the weeds. But you'll figure out what works best for you.

    Since Matt does not want to bend over to pick the beans - maybe you guys could plant those lower beans in your newly created hillside garden beds. Just plant the beans on the outside edge of the planter so you could be standing down the hill facing up towards the planter to pick your beans ; )
    Just give yourself a bit of a path to stand on a bit below down the hill.

    We had deer hit us a few times & an elderly man that lived up at the head of the branch told me to run three strands of fishing line. One two foot high, one three foot, & one line four foot high. As I stood there looking at him awaiting further instructions, he said,” when the deer come night or day, they can’t see the fishing line. When they walk into it they get spooked cause it physically obstructs them. They will probe the perimeter, but as they continue hitting the line, they will move on”. I truly didn’t believe this would work but, We never lost another thing. We even watched them on a trail cam. As they walked into the line it would scare them 😇❤Deer are curious creatures and the simplest things will spook them,& on the other hand I’ve been sitting in a tree stand, drop my keys,& watch them walk towards the stand looking for what made the sound of my keys 😳 Great video ❤

    A woman I use to houseclean for had the nicest small garden and between each row she had used old carpet cut to the width of the row and roll them down the row and add more if it wasn’t long enough. She had used a cream color which would eventually be a dirty pathway in time but it sure kept the weeds to a bare minimum.

    I hate radishes too, but if you quarter them up and fry them in the cast iron like you would potatoes, they are delicious. I usually fry them til they are getting brown and then pop them in the oven. See if you can get Matt to eat them that way.

    I've carried a pocket knife sinced I was four years old, birthday present from Daddy.
    Don't reckon I'd know what to do without one.
    I'd always carry an extra knife in my toolbox for knuckleheads that didn't carry their own, weren't no way I's gonna give 'em the chance to mess up the blades on mine.
    I've got a four blade tree brand right now that I reckon near a hundred folks has tried to talk me out of it but it didn't work, it was some kinda special edition knives with something etched on the blade, but I've used it more than thirty-two years now and that's been long wore off.
    Got it just after my house burnt, actually it was the first thing I replaced, somebody asked me what I needed and that was the first thing to come out my mouth, then they took me to a flea market and that's where I got it.
    It's been raining fairly regular here in southern middle Tennessee, been a might airish come nightfall, been that way more than a week.
    Just so's y'all know, it ain't got nothing to do with the fawning, them deer is just waiting on that garden to get good and lush, then they'll be back.
    If ever they do find a garden, they ain't bound to forget where they run across it.
    Just got done eating me a couple of tomato sandwiches.
    They weren't no garden fresh maters, but they sure got me thinking on garden fresh everything.
    Sure would like to try me one of them pineapple popsicles.

    Tipper, last year I bought the smallest/cheapest tomato cage they had at Walmart to put on my peppers. They were perfect size and supported them great into Fall without having to do the tying involved with stakes. Wow, they worked great and usable for many years. Maybe try next year. I think they were around $3 each. Also watched herb planting it’s going to look nice. Some of them might be a little close together because you won’t believe how big they will get.
