      I see cattle panel and poly in your future... I picked a panel up at Tractor Supply (should have gotten two, maybe still will) and have my kale and Swiss chard underneath. Where do you get your claytonia and mache seeds? Probably too late for me to start them now... I might have some old tatsoi seeds that I can see if they would sprout inside then put them out in the high hoop. What I’d really like to do is get my hands on an old 6’ high chain link dog run and try covering that in poly!

    Thank you!!! I'm so sad, all of my tomatoes and peppers froze from the first freeze. I'm used to eating something from my garden everyday, now just what I've brought in. I'll go plant seeds of some of the things that you mentioned right now. You and Tuck and your channel have changed the way I live. Praise God for you. May you be exceeding blessed. In Jesus name amen 🙏

    • @charlenekociuba7396
      @charlenekociuba7396 4 года назад +1

      Next time, trust your tomatoes to ripen on the window sill as frost is unpredictable. You are fortunate you have tomatoes so late, mine are just about done as I did not plant as many this year. Something about nightshade causing pain but they don't, at least not for me. Sad, I love tomatoes and eggplant so now I have to go and buy. Also I'm expanding my berry collection so that I can eat the vitamins. i agree with you, it's better to go for more varieties than to limit a garden that way something is available when some things don't make it. That softens the blow of disappointment, inevitable in gardening.

    Man, I missed you and Tuck!!! Hard to find people really enthusiastic about gardening! Then Tuck walks in and angels are singing and lights are shining!! yep, I am a dog freak. I still have veggies growing, chard, arugula, kale.. but they seem tougher, have a harder coat on them - is that normal - also had the frost last night. Went into my basement - oh, excuse me, my "root cellar" and pulled out one of the butternut squashes - Sweet Jesus, Joseph, Mary and the Donkey!!! amazingly sweet and delicious! Even if it cost the same to grow as to buy, nothing, absolutely nothing tastes as good as your own garden grown vegetables!! but it is still way cheaper to plant your own, even if onest is to partake in messing up a few crops, definitely worth it - ohhhhhh planted an elderberry bush (and totally forgot I planted it or what the heck it was) and I am still getting berries off it and if you have never had fresh elderberry berries - opffff, gotten have them. About 120 days until spring - who's counting!

    • @TheRealHonestInquiry
      @TheRealHonestInquiry 4 года назад +4

      So, I just pruned my Mexican Elderberry last week, I put the cuttings in a glass of rainwater intending to root them in coco coir, but instead left them outside for a week (about 40F at night) and now they look extremely happy! They are sprouting new leaves and seem to be putting out new roots :)
      I bought the Elderberry to make an immunity syrup, but the thought of fresh eating sounds amazing - would you please let me know what variety you have that you like to eat fresh berries from? (I haven't fully researched it yet but I've been warned by some, that sometimes eating the berries without cooking could be toxic - I assume this is from unripe berries but I haven't confirmed.) BTW anyone thinking of growing them take into consideration the ripening time for your variety, for example if you want to make a batch of syrup from a harvest look for a variety that ripens all at once

    This year I discovered saffron crocus. I got the bulbs from Baker Creek and planted them a few weeks ago. They bloom in the fall only a few weeks after planting and are blooming now while everything else is dying. Very pretty, plus they give you saffron (the styles of the crocus flower). Beautyberry (callicarpa) is also beautiful this time of year...amazing purple berries that are good for jelly.

I had been discouraged because of not having more land until you explained what you're using. Thanks so much for sharing all your knowledge and perspective. It's more helpful than you may know.

Fortunately, my Raised Garden Beds and regular ground beds were able to take care of themselves in 2020 and winter over OK. But, this Spring & Summer, I was a Brooding Hen, just starting to get working on the gardens. Prepping for Winter crops to carry me out of my Widow's Weed period and into the Rebirth of the Gardens come Spring and "What's growing..."

    I’m new to your channel but find you more relevant since I live in MA. Short season but thanks to you I have a fall garden with lettuce, kale and turnips. Still getting strawberries at the end of October! Love Tuk!

    I love arugula and can eat it everyday. My first time planting arugula this fall.

    Glad to have you and ♥♥TUCK♥♥ back and in the food forest! Missed you guys. We do still have Swiss chard growing here in Missouri and it does have a HUGE stalk on it. But, only one. Green beans went crazy this year! I had 43 quart jars and numerous bags in the freezer! Love fresh vegetables! Blessings from NE Missouri!

    Great video, last week we planted kale, Swiss chard, beets and artichokes in our raised beds and a lime and another pomegranate tree. Thanks for sharing, brother. Oops, I forgot that we also transplanted three Moringa trees, grown from cuttings and a Bay Laurel tree too.

    Cool. Thanks for sharing. John Kohler had success speeding ripening of figs on the tree by cutting the leaves off the tree.

    Happy to see you back! We've missed you and Tuck! My husband kept askin', 'where's James Prigioni? I like his videos!'. lol
    Thanks for sharing these cold hearty varieties!

    Oh oooh and recommend Chinese Mahogany or Beef and Onion plant/tree. Flamingo variety spectacular pink when buds every spring. Deciduous tree. Fast growing. All leaves and young shoots can be eaten raw or cooked. Delicious and looks great as an ornamental tree.

    Yo James check out the Kale variety 'Lacinato Rainbow' - super cold hardy and vigorous with the wonderful Lacinato texture - according to one site selling the seeds, seed was saved from a 2014 seed crop that survived a -6F freeze! ❄️ ❄️ ❄️

    Greetings James..so glad you had success with your carrots and greens..I had some failures with my broccoli n cauliflower but I won't waste them because you can treat the foliage as greens and braise and eat them.. hopefully little Tuckie has his doggie coats ready for the winter 😁😁 blessings to you 😇😇
