Nice to see how your garden is progressing Lindsay. I like seeing the types of crops you are growing.
Weather is always a challenge. I live in the eastern part of Washington State so very dry. We have had temps near 90, which some plants love and makes other plants bolt, and now we are headed back into the lows in 40s and highs in 70-80s.
What garden pests do you battle besides slugs? I think replanting is just part of normal gardening. I am constantly putting more seeds and plants into the ground whenever I have open spaces due to not germinating or needing to pull plants. Never a dull moment. 😊 Enjoy!
Last year we struggled severely with the slugs, and then we battled tomato horn worms, which we had never dealt with prior to moving here. In previous properties, we've struggled with squash bugs pretty badly. We didn't have too many issues with them last year, but I think that's due to the squash plants barely staying alive due to poor soil quality and curious turkeys lol
I have grown the Cherokee Trail of Tears beans. They make wonderful dried beans
Good to know! How did they do as a snap bean?
@@storybrookefamilyfarm I didn't enjoy them as much fresh compared to other varieties actually. But they were prolific and beautiful pods. My favorite fresh has been Dragon Tongue (or standard Blue Lake or Kentucky Wonder). The Dragon Tongue are a bush type but if they catch onto a trellis they will climb 3-4 feet and produce a lot as well. I plant DT after the onions and garlic are harvested. Pick them young they are wonderfully crisp, slightly sweet and meaty without being spongy.
The best dry bean I've tried is Good Mother Stallard.
@DebRoo11 I forgot all about the Dragon Tongue variety! I grew it a few years ago and it is an absolutely beautiful looking bean that tasted really good too. I'll have to get more seeds for them. I can't believe I forgot all about them lol. I'll have to order some of the dry beans you suggest too so I can give them a try :)
@@storybrookefamilyfarm so many varieties, so little time and space 😂
@@DebRoo11 exactly!!!
You grow girl
Thanks!
