I’m in NJ also. I wish I had known about your channel before! Loved and learned all the videos that I’ve been watching of yours. So far it’s as if you are talking to me directly! I am a new fan!! Do you have any advice for seed ordering? Where do you shop? I’d love to know. Do you ever use beds? Opinion on wood chips? How do u make your leaf mold? That’s all for now, 🙏
If you scroll down in the video description you will see links to 3 seeds company I use. Yes, use wooden raised beds and also 8 inch tall ground raised beds with wood chips pathways. Making leaf mold is so simple. Just make a pile 1 foot tall as wide as you want and as long as you want. At the end of your garden and add water to start and next year you will have leaf mold at the bottom. NATURE does all the work.
I’m in Ireland. We had a long profound drought this summer causing even mature trees to shed leaves. I had to water my fruit and vegetables which usually isn’t necessary. Usually frost around mid to end of October but nothing yet. We are hoping for a mild winter due to the energy costs.
Used the plastic over the netting and it works great!! living in southern jersey zone 7a, my spinach, chard , kale, and romaine lettuce are doing just fine. Being new to gardening since this past April, I was/am super encouraged!! When I saw that the temps were dropping to the 40's, I ran to cover my lil tender greens and it paid off!! Thanks for sharing!!
I’m in Texas zone 8a and my gardening location has had over 90 consecutive days no rain and temperatures above 100. We finally got rain and cooler weather and are now a month in to no rain again. I can’t seem to keep a tree or plant alive. I’m loosing the large native oak trees at a alarming rate.
I’m in 6b too-Southern Illinois. A frost was threatened last night, looks like it skipped us. 🎉. I typically don’t expect one here till more like-end of October or early November.
Mark, I am also in 6b. Why would you think this frost is "bazar" ? Today is October 9. Our average first frost date is October 6 -- Ray Delbury Sussex County NJ
@@iamorganicgardening I watch a weather channel (Independent) here on RUclips that just said expect early frost and snow depending on your area in the USA.
@@iamorganicgardening same here, rural northern middle Tennessee 6b/7a.....very cold this morning....forecast for 37.....always colder than forecast, so down to 32 for about an hour. Don't usually see first frost until last part of October.....
@@iamorganicgardening i just finished watching a video on Adapt 2030 channel about this underreporting cold weather! ruclips.net/video/IvI9-QteAMs/видео.html
Whenever they predict lower 40F in combination with no wind and clear sky, I know rhere is a good chance for frost at ground level. At least overhere in Holland. Happened last night, last tomatoes and some artichokes really got a hit. Just keep in mind that in general forecast temps are done for the 5 feet high level, not for the 4 inch above ground level. Garlic planted the other day, I will continue to plant spinach that may end up as frost teminated cover crop or an abundant harvest later on. The weather overhere varies wild during winter.
@@iamorganicgardening Traffic, industry and agri sector produce large amounts of harmfull types of Nitrogen. Dairy, pig and poultry farming is large scale in Holland and most (nitrogen rich) feed is imported from abroad. In order to reduce the amount of Nitrogen emissions near areas that are oversaturated with these emissions, they are still compiling a list with farmers that emit a lot.in the wrong location. A lot of political turmoil did arise around the strategies needed for the reduction. It seems that only a few farmers are willing and able to end their farm, due to age and/or no new farmer avail to continue the farm. That's the low hanging fruit that is likely to end their activity voluntary in exchange for a big bag of government money. The majority of the "polluters" will be a hard nut to crack, a lot of them are not old and did invest heavy in their farm (with a lot of financing by big banks). Not only the banks are part of the problem, a lot of other jobs are dependent on the farming activity. Also the government is very short on cash. It will take quite a few years, a lot of money, and long legal battles to end unwanted activities.
Finally down to 68 degrees the other Morning. Last couple of years been decent Rains most of the summer. Average high around 105 instead of 116 with hot wind. Middle of Arizona Curious Mark was the sun up Yet. While you were filming
Eastern Mo, no frost, but definitely too cold for this time of year, waking up to high 40's is abnormal with the highs in low 60's. Tomorrow starts out in the upper 40's and is suppose to reach 80, welcome to the new world of climate change.
They control the weather...
Maybe.
My winter rye was about 7 days old with triple frost days. They still came through; pretty green cover crop
It is amazing. Thank You.
I'm 60 miles north of n.y city. Lowest was 38. Zone 6a no frost yet. I'm waiting to harvest my sweet potatoes.
Bets wishes for a great harvest, Thanks
Middle Tennessee here, last 2 nights 28 expecting 2 more nights of freezing temperatures, I'm not ready!
Oh wow! I would not be either.

Outside of Albany NY got it also. This year has been just crazy. We started the woodstove to ward off the cold. Hang in there.
THANKS for the update.

Hoping for mild winter for you also. Thanks.
Frost in October, damn. Last year was so warm too.
I fully agree with you. Thanks
No frost here, Iowa 5b, but know some near me who got a frost last week. We are on a hill, seems like our temps stay a degree or 2 warmer
Thank You for sharing.

Sounds great! Thank you. Happy Gardening
Zone 5b in the state of Wisconsin. No sign of frost yet. Broke out the frost cover once for a frost that didn't happen. Better be safe then sorry.
Yes, I agree . Thanks.

Very Sorry to hear all that. Many Prayers

Got close here in 7a Middle TN. Looks like it took out some of my little buckwheat seedlings, but not all of it.
Thanks, Hope it turns out well to you.
Where are you? Didn't the weatherman forecast the frost?
New Jersey 6 b. They did not forecast it. Thanks

THANK YOU so very much for all this information. On a different note I understand the government wishes to buy 600 farms Now?

We had a light frost overnight here in SE PA. Doesn't look like it did any damage to the garden. I did cover a few beds but can't cover everything.
Thanks or sharing.
Same thing here in northern New Jersey mark.
THANK YOU.
38° here in Taxachusetts... missed the bullet!
That to funny. Thanks Taxachusetts
LOL!
I can just imagine how delicious those greens would be after that frost 😩 The sugar content on those things: 📈
YES, YUMM. Thanks

Yes, in the back ground it was hitting the tops of the trees.
We got down to 36° in 6b Pennsylvania. I harvested all of our remaining tomatoes yesterday, but I don't see any signs of a frost.
Ditto. I’ve loads of green tomatoes now, lucky I’ve flowers still on those plants. 🤷🏻♀️
Thank You for sharing.
Grand Solar Minimum
Not again. Thanks
Must be chilly Mark, I see your wearing long pants, lol.
