Thanks for the kind words and much respect for your comeback! Best of luck my friend ❤️
@@jamesprigioni Hi James, I’ve learned so much from your channel since I started gardening a few years ago. I’m in NJ as well. I need advice on squash vine borers, I have read and viewed a plethora of information and have tried every trick in the book. I must have thousands of them in the soil. It’s only my second season in this yard so I’m not sure I can do row covers because they’re in the soil. I’ve spent countless hours a week picking off the eggs from May until presently. I put BT in the soil with seedlings also injecting BT into stems every few days. Put a few pins in plants, have used yellow soapy bowls, rubbed the stems with neem/peppermint/citronella oils, wrapped with foil, sprayed the yard, turned over the soil. You name it, I’ve most likely tried it. I’ve lost 99% of my 50 squash plants I started with. Also have cut the larva out and covered the roots again. I’ve actually found a dozen in one plant alone. I had some trap crops, also some plants completely sealed in greenhouse as well. Every single squash plant has damage or has died. The borers even get in thru the tiniest plants and even veins on the leaves. I’ve been so diligent. The one thing I haven’t tried is to stop growing squash, I’m about to cry!!! Any advice???
God Bless you my kiwi Brother. I am from south Auckland. I love watching Mr James and Boss and this channel inspired me of continuing gardening.love his ideas of growing tomatoes etc.
@@Ninabeana1313 Some people actual dig the borer out of the stem. I started my squash late this year and have avoided the pests for the most part.
@@Ninabeana1313 there is an older video of his that shows a remedy that involves covering part of the vine with soil in order to produce new roots so it can handle the physical removal of the borer. I've also had success with BT. I use a meat injector to go straight into the vine. Saved a plant this year with it. I've found it useful to let squash grow into two vines so you can sacrifice one if need be. The art of war also applies to the garden. Good luck and may your zucchini flourish
You are by far my favorite gardening RUclips channel! Anyone that shows a massive amount of respect and treats their best friend, a furry buddy, with respect by letting them dig up carrots in the garden for a well-earned snack gets an A+ in my book!
I am always saddened when I watch gardening channels and people tell their dogs to leave. Not only do you highlight Tuck in all of your videos, but you share the garden together.
Much love! 💜🐾💚🐾💜
He’s a huge inspiration of mine
Than You, James & Tuck, the most encouraging, motivational growers in my realm! Love you both!
I’m just starting my food forest in my front yard here in Missouri. It’s a lot of startup costs and whatnot, but I know that when there’s loads of food out in my yard, I’m going to be so happy I did this. And with the rising costs of food these days, I can’t be mad at the cost of starting up raised beds and soil purchases. It’s all going to be money saved and earned back when I harvest.
I really love the way you live your life. I'm your Cambodian fan. Respect!!!
I love coming to this channel to get away.. No politics, just joy!
James, I live in the Catawba Grape Capitol of the World (over 500 acres of them in my town). You do not need to thin the bunches like you would on a peach or other fruit tree. It won't increase the size or flavor or quality. Also, the sucker you removed at the base can be easily rooted in wet sand (just remove all the big leaves) to make another vine. You can't have too many Catawba grapes in this world!
i dont think its the point of getting better quality or flavor or even size its so he gets uniform ripening and or stop diseases
I'll try the sand trick. I have tried and failed many times to propagate my Red Swensons, to no avail. Thanks!
@@8thcelisabeth if it's big enough do an air layer
Didn't he say thin the leaves so more light can get in?
@@miss_mish growing it on an arbor it's gonna shade itself off you don't want to take off too many leaves you can just as easy pull the leaf over and tie it to let the light threw
James how do your lettuce and Brassicas not bolt at this point in the season? It’s very hot, do you use shade cloth? Also, how do you keep the cabbage moth all those brassicas? Yours look beautiful, not filled with holes like mine! Keep up the great work
I Want to know this too.?
Following to find out..
💚💚🌿🌿💚💚
You have a beautiful garden! And that dog is adorable
Thank goodness the squash issue is pollination, not pest, disease, or watering pressure! I was ready to give up on trying to grow squash. Couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong. I can easily pollenate them myself with a small soft paint brush or a cotton swab like you did. Thanks James!
I agree, I wish my problem was pollination, it's such an easy problem to solve. If I have enough male flowers, I will usually just pluck the anther (male flower part) and tuck it in the stigma (female flower part), or pollinate many female fruits with a few anthers.
I have a guide to squash vine borers on my website, if interested. Link on my About page. I am converting more lawn to garden, a huge section is converted to squash and melon beds and my biggest issue is squash vine borers. I am an unwilling expert lol.
I wish you and everyone a successful squash season!
@@8thcelisabeth me too. I've been fighting them bad this year. Feeding those little monsters to the chickens. Very frustrating though.
Love seeing Tucker get all of his garden snacks after a long day being a boss! 😍💞
Your (and tucker) energy makes me smile! Thank you
I would love to know more about how you plant sweet potatoes in buckets!
I agree
Me, too.
Love love your garden huge fan of all your vids soooo fresh so rewarding for you !!!🍉🍋🍏🥬🥬🥑🥦🥕🥕🥕🥕🌶️🌻🌻🌻🍆🍆
I've been following you for like at least 3 or 4 years I started my food Forest because of you I now have 16 different types of trees I have grapevines three of them with so many grapes this season my yard looks practically like yours thank you so much for being the man that you are growing your own food James try using cutter bees get a four-by-four block and dril a lot of holes in it place it next to one of your plants that throws a lot of flowers the cutterbees will be attracted to the home you built for it all in all God bless you brother oh yeah and I have three Chihuahuas two pit bulls and a German Shepherd
That growth by mid-June is insane!!!
I love seeing Tuck. Our 13yo Yorker just passed so Tuck makes me extra happy now ❤️❤️
2yr gardener here appreciating you and your informative, fun vids.
Glad to hear that Lance! Thanks for the kind words ❤️
Squash vine boarers always get our squash. I've been planting some varieties that are more resistant to them over the years just so we can still have a nice squash harvest. I usually just grow the zucchini as a fall crop now but I will have to try the rooting method out again. Thanks! Everything looks beautiful as always!!
I have a link to my guide to Squash Vine Borers if interested. It's my life's work to spread the news about how to conquer the little demons. I loath them... On SVB watch now, I just set out a trap about an hour ago so I know when they have arrived.
Right on with different cultivars. There are definitely squash types that are more resistant to SVB damage.
This year i planted mine in 3 different areas of my garden with the hopes of getting more veggies
I hope it works out for you! ☺️ They never fail to get ours unfortunately.
@@SmallSeeds same here. I planted excessive squash plants (50) and I only have about 12 left. I have done BT consistently in the vines and outside, organic garden dust, essential oils on the stems, trap crops, picking the eggs off daily, wrapping the stems, bowl traps, cutting the stem and replanting, everything short of row covers. They’re in the soil so I can’t. I have hand tilled and even sprayed BT in the soil. I can’t believe how many moths I’ve seen and how relentless they are!!! I’ve only grown enough Zucchini for one dinner side so far this year. I’m about ready to cry and stop growing squash!
Ohhh I miss my brother in law! He had a amazing vegetable garden. His cabbage and greens were so huge and delicious! He grew peas, beans, tomatoes, some of everything. I like to prepare the green leaves with my cabbage. It takes it to another level! Thank you so much for your videos. They are extremely informative and just plain amazing! Happy harvesting!
I whimpered a little when he was discarding all those leaves! 😱 😂
Wow. Your garden is a paradise.
I’m in central Jersey and absolutely love your enthusiasm and your garden! I’ve always grown a veggie garden but you’ve inspired me to plants fruit. So far I planted two apple trees, two peach trees, one pear grafted with different varieties, one blueberry and one raspberry and a grape vine! Next year I’m going to plant some arctic kiwis. Thank you for the inspiration!
Im in south jersey and my next step is fruit trees… told my hubby if James can grow in NJ then so can I!!!
This really is the Garden state!
That beautiful dog eats so HEALTHY! So cute!!!! Great plants!
Absolutely the best growing channel on RUclips!
Love it! Please do a video teaching what organic sprays you use and how often to keep the plants insect free and also which organic fertilizer you recommend and how often you fertilize. Love watching Tuck follow you around enjoying your beautiful garden . Thanks for all the content!
I think I've seen him share all this you ask for in other videos of his. You can search his channel for each thing you want to pull them up.
You're always so excited, it's wonderful and contagious! 😄
I am from Florida and it is so hot right now plants are so scorched. I love your garden so much!
Like always you bring the best . Tuck is a sweetheart. God bless 😊
I’m always learning so much from you. I truly appreciate your dedication to sharing your knowledge.
I planted a big garden this year after so many yrs of not having a garden. Watching your videos gave me the inspiration to get back into gardening again. Thank you for giving me that inspiration! I truly needed that❤
I love how every year is the best year yet! True testament to learning from your mistakes and how to adapt.
Hi James
I’m at 7800 feet with many challenges from late freezes, deer, small critters and winds.
I am determined to growing my own garden and as my Grand mother always said “Always grow enough to share with your neighbors!” This year 3 and I’m still figuring what grows best in these conditions. Your videos are so inspiring and full of most helpful tips and tricks. I have two kittens and planted cat nip for them. They love it!
Take care and Bee well!
Diana in Forrest Lakes Colorado
James you have an amazing garden, you have varieties of food that you are growing, thank you for sharing your passion 😍
James! This video came right on time. I'm growing green and I was about to look up some ideas on what's going wrong when this video popped up. Perfect timing!
I know you said in another video that if you had to redo your grape arbor you would do it differently but i truly like the way yours is set up. I imagine sitting under it since we have very little shade in our yard.
Robbie, of Robbie and Gary Easy Gardening, recommended you to me. Hehe - think her Kitty's in love with your Tuck. I'm growing my garden in the 18-gallon totes and they're working great. This week I harvested my very first zucchini and today ate my first home grown strawberry. Night and day difference from the one the stores are selling. Your gardens look beyond awesome!
RUclips is just rude for not giving me the notifications about this new video EIGHT hours ago! Happy to have checked, I was itching for a new video!
Some gardens are simply just dying from excessive heat. Good to see NJ is still okay. Love Tuck enjoying his veggies!
Squash vine borrers are such a difficult pest to deal with! I found a wonderful youtuber the other day that suggests using caterpillar killer by safer brand but instead of spraying the plant with the mixture, she uses a syringe and injects it where the damage is and I tried it this week and all the damage has stopped! I tried the method you use James and I was always to late or it just never worked for me to bury the damaged areas and I'm so happy I found this other way. It didn't take long to do and it's so much easier and less time consuming to just inject with the caterpillar killer! I highly recommend!
I'd ask if it was me, but I haven't done a video on the squash vine borers yet. Bt - Bacillus Thuringiensis is the caterpillar killer. Disrupts their digestive system. I wrote an article, a guide to everything I did to combat squash vine borers, what works and what didn't. Different methods works for different gardens, so I reviewed them all.
My About page has the link if interested. Either way, good luck and I am glad Bt worked for you!
@@8thcelisabeth it was actually "The aberrant gardener" channel! I'm happy to know about yours now too! Will be watching your vids now too! 😁
@@Faye_vr That is so sweet, thanks!
Beautiful Califlower.
Wow your berry bushes are fabulous.
So jealous. Luv seeing you and Tuck in the garden.
James: "Tuck how many snacks are you gonna eat?"
Tuck: "How many you got?" 😄😄
Have you ever heard of mulberry’s?? Super good! Super prolific!
Your food forest always gets me excited and pumped! It’s awesome!!! Love you Tuckey ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
“Surround Kaolin Clay”. Now I’m getting that for my apples 😃
So much love for Tuck 🐕 all the way from Papua New Guinea 🇵🇬 🙋🏽💚💚💚
Tuck harvesting carrots❤❤❤ He is the best!!!
And regarding your comment you’re trying to keep up with all the lettuce. Do you do any canning or preserving for all your harvest? So impressive
Hey James! I love all your videos! I would love to support your channel by buying and promoting your shirts if they were organic cotton. Not only is it better for us to wear so we don’t absorb any chemicals into our skin (especially when we are sweating in the garden), but it also doesn’t support slave labor or big chemical companies that profit off spraying and growing gmo cotton to make shirts with. Please change your shirts to Organic cotton!! 🙌🏻👍🏻🌱☀️
I'm in zone 6, growing grapes, and they now look like yours, looking for to eating them. Thanks for showing yours.
Hey James, dont know if you will see this but I just wanted to say that you inspired me to "turn a new leaf" heh heh. I used to grow weed, I live in Canada so its perfectly legal. I got really good at it but it got boring and its not very useful. Seeing your passion has infected me too. I converted my grow room to a lettuce factory. I live in an apt so I dont have real land but I also got my balcony producing blac berries and tomatoes and have plans for lots more. I have stealth gardens in some of the bigger parks in my city. The rabbits are unreal but I will defeat them in sheer numbers of plants, thats what i call a challenge. Anyway thanks to you and Tuck for opening a door to an entire new world for me, keep up the good work.
I am so grateful for my neighbour next door because he grows bees. His ladies are hard at work on our yard and we keep many flowers for them as pay. We let chives to flower because we do not need that many chives right now but the bees and bumblebees and some others I cannot name are all over chive flowers.
Hi Mr.James! I've been a fan of ur channel for a long time and this year thanks to ur videos and knowledge, I am successfully growing grapes, strawberries, tomatoes, lettuce, and (Now Squash I was wondering why it was browning)! Ive been container gardening and I hope to go full food forest this fall if not next! Thank u so much for ur channel! It really keeps me going and inspires me!
Your garden is absolutely amazing everything looks so large and green.I grow in containers in my driveway. I would like to try and grow cabbage and cauliflower in the future. I have that problem growing squash am going to try your tip.
Your vegetable garden is so beautiful 🥒🥬tucker is so precious
I just love your food forest. It is so inspiring. It makes me feel like I can do it too.I want my space to look like yours.Tuck is amazing. 🥰
How in the world to you keep up with all this? You are a great gardener. I am jealous of how much energy you have I am 70 now i can never do what you do but i love watching you and dreaming. Thank you you are so smart. Love you.
I love this guys vibe
You're the man James!!- looking great as always!! DAMN I envy your zone...lets just say I'm in central Montana...but you pick me up, inspired, & hopeful...i always watch your videos before I hit my garden- they get me going/ motivated...just like prepping for a football game!!..& keep it real Tuck!😉😎
Tuck puts a big smile on my face. Your garden is awesome,
I love your happiness and your excitement it is catchy. You make me feel happy and excited about gardening
Blessings to all!
I love how excited and happy you are,it always makes me smile 😊
James you always help pump me up lettttttttssssss gooooo.
Appreciate you
But tbh I'm here for tuck 🥰😁
💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛
We just ate purple potatoes with dinner that I harvested today from my first garden. Gardening is so rewarding! Thanks for the inspiration.
I really look forward to your tours every weekend. I catch myself grinning like an idiot, I cant help it! Your garden is GOALS man! You are growing more food on in that backyard than a lot of the big homesteaders are. Its so encouraging! And I am AMAZED that I didnt see a single cabbage moth in this entire video. But I did notice eggs on ONE plant, towards the beginning-ish. It also encouraged me to see a tiny bit of pink tinge on your califlower. I was very upset last year when my califlower turned pinkish and thought maybe I just shouldnt try to grow it here in Kansas City. Seeing yours encourages me to try again next year and not be expecting it to look like grocery store califlower.
Can you try growing them for the fall garden?
I'm about 3 hrs North of KC, and we have the same issue with brassicas in the spring. Shooting for fall to hopefully have a better crop.
Hi! I live in Florida, what I do to avoid moth is to plant earlier! My crucíferos are all planted in November and December! A lot of people start growing in basement, as soon grown is safe in your area you transplant your crops. Plant blueberries and raspberries in your garden, they grow wonderful there! I even plant my squash early too, just to avoid very worm temperature bring bugs too. Good luck. 🍀
Wow, James, looks like you could start your own winery!!
Love the garden….I am going to try planting some celery-it looked so good. Love Tuck-such a sweetie!
Your garden is something to behold! Amazing how you fit so much in a small space, and everything is so healthy!
Hi James and Tuck your garden is beautiful very healthy and tuck is enjoying his carrots 🥕 and cabbage 🥬 leafy ❤️❤️.
@Connie W omg Connie I love that. I grew up gardening with my dad. went on to struggle with drug addiction for over a decade. Been clean 4 yrs now, I am 34, with a fiance, kid on the way, and bought a home 2yrs ago. Last spring/summer I spent countless hours clearing weeds and redo'ing my entire back yard and bought some transplants to garden. I am not a health freak, or even veggie guy, hell i still smoke cigs. But when I started harvesting organic food from my backyard it sparked that passion again. And i enjoy the veggies now. Because I grew them. It is such a joy watching a plant go from seed to harvest. You feel accomplished, and deep down like what humans are meant to do. Not to mention it is a healthy hobby, useful hobby, and lastly a necessary hobby (there may come a day 5-25yrs from now where there is a food shortage or society crumbles.) Since last summer I have done SOOO much research and preparation for this season and my garden this year is LEGIT thus far. James got me into perennials more, so this year I got 7 fruit trees now, 5 varieties of berries, herbs, etc. It will only get more exciting and rewarding each year Connie, keep it up! (that miserable guy deleted that thread and i wanted to reply to you still, hope you see this)
Tuck and James I love watching your videos. You both have so much enthusiasm that becomes infectious with your message “you can do this too.” Thank you for all your knowledge and tips. You both are inspiring. 🌱🌱
I love your garden. I get so overwhelmed when my garden comes into season with all the work to preserve what I have grown.
man, I can only imagine the maintenance effort and time that must go into these beautiful gardens! Legit statement around becoming human again!!!!!
Great video! Nice and slow moving. Thanks for the tour!
I HOPE YOU READ THIS! If you published a book or pamphlet that laid out all of your garden, the landscaping, the companion crop make ups you have, and especially all of the different varieties of perennial foods, including the varieties that you chose in order to stagger the harvest, (the staggering system you use altogether really)..... I would purchase that in a heartbeat!! I'm sure many of your viewers would too 🤗 Peace and blessings James.
James, your videos keep on inspiring me in working with my own food forest at the back of my house. I would like you to know that because of your past videos on your seed grown apple I got motivated on growing my own. And because of that I am proud to be the first person to grow apple here in the Province of Iloilo, Philippines. I hope my apple would be loaded with fruits when the right time comes, just like your apple trees. James, I appreciate your and thank you very much..
Great garden, happy smiles all round. Have a great weekend 🌼 🤗
You are OFFICIALLY my NEW favorite garden channel to watch!!!
I just bought my 2.5 acres and am very much looking forward to creating AAAALLLLLL OF THIIIIIIISSSS 🙏!
I'm in central NJ and my garden is just thriving! I don't have nothing compared to your food forest. I am learning so much from you though! I'm a couple days out from harvesting a lot of zucchini! I have so many big green tomatoes already I can't believe it. Gardening is so much fun! Tuk is awesome! ❤️
Amazing. You inspire me to keep growing. Thanks for making your videos.
Love to see Tuck enjoying the food forest! How to you keep your cabbage and cauliflower free from the white moth and bugs??
I love touring your garden, it's great to see all the possibilities in NJ.
Can you give us a tutorial on growing potatoes in buckets? Or maybe you already have?
My first year having a garden. Your channel and MIGardener have been a great inspiration and wealth of knowledge. Originally from Jersey, now in NC, man I love your energy. Looking at your raised beds I realized I can clearly load up thicker for next year. I just started harvesting beans and jalapenos but if I had realized how close I could've crammed them in my harvest would be incredible. I'm excited to try new vegetables, like swiss chard and new varieties of others. Grew up watching Crockett's Victory Garden, and now I'm here, watching you!
Lead the gardening way James, & Tuck!! 💙🍀🌻🐝🪴🐞🍓🫐🥬
The forest is looking great james
You make farming an art. I can never farm like you so watching your videos is my favorite thing to enjoy.
Beautiful garden!!👍👏
Ha, "TUCKed" in 👍. All your plants always look so healthy and lush, it's amazing 👏
Just joyous watching this. Inspired to keep learning and growing 🌻you have super gardener status 🤩🤩
James, Great garden tour. Love Tuck. Have you ever considered a video on how you prepare some of your veggies. I would like to see how you cook the cabbage and prepare salads.
By far the best gardening channel !
I just planted my first vegetable garden. It's not going so well but I'm very pleased.
That is incredible cauliflower! One of my favorite veggies. Another great garden tour, thanks! 😊 Michele
Amazing how such a tiny guy can put so much veggie goodness away..lol..love tuck! ❤💜🧡💚
Super helpful video! My grapes and squash are in the same stage here in Kansas.
James your garden is incredible. Tuck is so exciting to watch!
I thought that this video was from last year. You are so much further ahead than Connecticut or my soil stinks. Thanks for your level of encouragement. The garden looks amazing.
I always remeber to like when I learn something useful and when I see Tuck; esp. munching a carrot. 🐕💕
My grandma grew black caps, I used to wander her garden and graze… so good!
