    Nice garden, Duke. Yep, have been told many times that beans pull nitrogen from the air and put it in the ground. A great cover crop to recover a bed from nitrogen depleting veggies. Good to see those purple hulls and okra working together. Sounds like a winner. Thanks for the visit to your beautiful garden and for the tips, too. You always have good tips. :-)

    Howdy Brother Duke- ain’t nothing better than good garden veggies. We should be starting to get some okra in about a week or so. I’m getting tired of picking green beans. They done good this year. Hope all is well down there. God bless y’all

    We planted okra a few years ago next to the compost pile that we composted cow manure. Man o man that okra grew over 10 feet tall with stalks that looked like a tree trunk. I kept the ladder out to harvest the pods. I absolutely love okra and purple hulls. I’ll be trying this next time. Thanks for sharing dear brother. God bless y’all❤️

    Probably just a coincidence, for peas to make nitrogen, first they have to have the right bacteria, if it's not there you can buy a bag of inoculate but make sure it's the right one for whatever legume you are gonna plant. If the ground has adequate nitrogen, plants will use that first, inoculated plants really help on nitrogen poor sandy soil's. Usually a abundance of nitrogen results in lots of vegetative growth, meaning, big plants. Probably a good idea though, gives the peas something to run on,and shades the ground. I planted something called hairy vetch one year, company I bought seed from also sold me the inoculcant for it. You plant in fall, it comes up then dies down, comes back up in spring and makes a beautiful thick ground cover,full of purple flowers. I have a fence around one garden and it climbs it and is covered in flowers, women oh and ahhhhhh, thinking I'm growing flowers lol. Its good for areas your gonna plant late or going to let lie one year, it's good to let land rest occasionally, even the bible mentions it, you were ordered to let land rest on the year of jubilee for instance. You're garden looks good.

    • @RuffCut
      @RuffCut  Год назад

      yes probably a coincidence...never saw them produce so heavy in a short period of time and the okra plants are short too. Thank you for the information Donald. Blessings

      @@RuffCut sometimes less nitrogen makes okra do better, at least to an extent. Next county over is what we call the sandhills in SC, lots of it poor soil, okra a lot of the time want ever get past 4 feet tall, but it makes a lot of okra. They call harvesting okra around there, breaking okra, we don't cut it but snap it off the stem. Almost everyone around here plants Clemson spineless. My great grandmother used to take the legs of pants that we cut off to make shorts,and wear them on her arms while breaking okra. Kids now wouldn't be caught dead wearing a pair of cut off pants lol.

    I know from experience that when okra gets up and blooming you gotta pick it no longer than every other day or the pods get big and tough. Frozen bag okra (batter coating) is like what is served at restaurants and nothing like simply rolling it in dry corn meal. Fried up commercial okra is slimy and nasty to me and countless Yankees (bless their heart). Just dry meal and fry it crispy is unbeatable. Some cornbread and pressure cooked green beans. That's eating. You can broil it on a baking sheet in the oven if the oil is too heavy on your stomach
