Welcome to My Big Back Yard--- Here you will find Trail Cam footage of wildlife as well as see footage of some projects and hobbies, My Cactus and Succulent Garden and Collection--My Meadow, My Vegetable Garden and my adventures elsewhere in nature. I have lots of hobbies so this channel could also foray into baking, cooking and even painting!
Anything else I feel like making a video of. In reality the world is my back yard so who knows what content could appear.

The beginnings of the season in my Raised Bed Vegetable Garden. what am I growing this year
Planting Pothos and Philodendron outside on a tree
มุมมอง 642 หลายเดือนก่อน
What happens when I plant philodendron and pothos cuttings in my backyard next to a tree will they climb the tree and get really big like they do in places like Florida. I live in Delaware where I have approximately 4 months to conduct this experiment - after that it will cool off and they will definitely not make it through a winter here. Let’s see what happens

See how my potted Citrus are doing indoors for the winter
The buck at 3:02 had a huge rack
@@Bravesontop748 yes I was so excited about him! I hope he sticks around!
Thank you for helping me with my new Persian Lime Tree strategy of care. I subscribed as a result.
@@manuelferreira1363 thank you for watching and subscribing!
I'm in 7a Hamilton Nj. I finally found a channel somewhat close 😊 I've recently gotten into Cactus and needed a idea of what hardy Cactus I could actually grow in my yard ❤❤❤❤❤thanks for sharing ❤
Oh great your welcome and I’m glad I could help!
Beginning was good
😂
Not sure I’ve ever posted a bore boring video lol.
You could try editing 😂
Looks good great info I’m starting one on a smaller scale (start last week) see how it goes
Cool I’ll be interested to see how it goes
Some good ideas gonna give it a try
Very good work❤
Off to a good start I’m dealing with some rambunctious ground hogs this season keeps things interesting
That’s fun. Hope he doesn’t eat everything
Wind plastic snow has kept me up many nights
Good mix, I just did 50/50 perlite mix to avoid silting, lifting small young trees can be risky by trunk.
What kind of potting mix is it could you share thanks
The mix is really close to what they call 5-1-1 mix. The recipe/ ratios can be found in the Facebook group. Growing Citrus in Containers.
Plants look healthy indoors. How much light do you provide them to keep them healthy?
I keep them in a window area that faces west but also gets some southern exposure. I also provide grow lights. I have a Medusa style floor lamp that has 5 sansi grow light bulbs in it that I got on Amazon separately. I keep the light on at least 14 hours a day all winter
'promosm' 🌺
Was wondering how strong or how many watts is your grow light?
The grow light I have on them now is actually just a Medusa style lamp with grow light bulbs in it. I got the bulbs on Amazon. They are SANSI grow light bulbs. 10 W and 15 W led grow light bulbs. Really it’s supplemental to the winter sun as the plants are in a SW side window and get lots of natural light
@@visitmybigbackyard Thanks
Excellent 🎉🎉🎉 I subscribed to your channel 🙏
Говорят на 1 плод должно быть 15 листов - иначе типа не прокормит дерево эти плоды
Translated to English “They say there should be 15 leaves for 1 fruit - otherwise the tree will not feed these fruits”. That may be true, I just let my trees self prune. They drop the fruits they can’t support , usually when they are still very small. and I get whatever fruits make it to maturity
Instead of rocks use paper towel or table napkins.
Yes I could. If I had thought about it I would have used window screen
Vous avez l’air de vivre dans un pays relativement froid en hiver, rentrez vous votre plumeria pendant la saison froide ?
Yes it gets cold here in the winter. I bring the plumeria inside from October through April. It can handle a bit of a chill but I can’t let it freeze.
What is the variety of your lime tree?
Im not sure actually. I got it directly from a local person who grew it from his own. Not from a store so I Never had a label. I assume it’s whatever the most usual available variety is?
Lots of deer activity and really cool getting the foxes, I rarely get those for whatever reason. The deer at 9:00 has something weird going on with the back of its neck, could have been hair pushed the wrong way I guess, nice footage! 👍
Thanks for watching. I didn’t see anything on the deer at 9:00. but I always see one deer with her tongue hanging out in many of my videos 😝
@@visitmybigbackyard 😆
No offense but I think you're allowing your Owari to set too many fruit at such a young age. That's coming at the expense of leaf growth. My Owari is 3.5 years old and much bigger and bushier than yours and I only allowed it to set 8 fruits this past summer. It's also in a container.
You are probably correct although I was under the impression that the tree would self prune what it was not able to carry. However now that 8 have harvested and eaten all of my owari. For the year(they were delicious). It has plenty of time to recover. I’m sure it will put out new leaves soon I. not sure if it will bloom again this year or not but we will see.
It probably wont bloom again until march. I've read several times that citrus trees are not self-thinning. I will probably allow my tree to ripen 10-12 peaches this coming season. Best of luck to you.
Horticultural oil and/or pyrethrin based pesticides are the best treatment for pests on citrus. Pyrethrin isn't as bad as it sounds, it's derived from chrysanthemum and degrades within a 1-2 days. If you have a dog there's a good chance their flea medication contains Pyrethrins.
I have some pyretherin. If my insects are not successful I will treat them
I have started making a natural spray from citrus peel that really keeps pests including mealy bugs away. I always find that little bugs love my overwintering plants, so am so happy to have a safe, natural way to fight them🙂
Cool I subbed.....I just got into the hobby myself. Keep us posted
Thanks. I will for sure
Where are you located, thank you for sharing
I’m in Delaware
Nice, I think manderin all some of the hardest to grow. I get scale on my Kishu manderins which have not flowered in a year but I think roots are growing strong. I had luck with horticultural oil spray.
Thanks. I just added. Mealybug destroyer beetles. And will be adding other beneficial insects
A few treatments of GardenTech Sevin Insect Killer Liquid will get rid off your bugs
Thanks. I’m trying to avoid that type of solution if possible.
It seems like lemons are less susceptible to bugs. It’s cool to see your lemons run true to that prediction like mine do!
Thanks. I didn’t know that was a thing. Bonus my lemon is blooming again now!
To big the new container !
I realize they may have technically been too big but I have not had any issues from that. It’s been over a year and my trees are very healthy and fruitful
what zone are you in?
Zone 7
If a plant is stuck in a pot, just put it on the ground and roll it on the sides, it will then come out pretty easily. This breaks the friction between the root ball and the sides of the pot. If you left it in the pot that long it is probably root bound, too.
I’m pretty sure they were not root bound in the old pots. The fabric pits I had them in do have a tendency to stick a bit as well as to dry out too quickly. The plastic pots I put them in in the video are much better a d my trees are still doing quite well. It’s been over a year. I have fruit on all of them
Buy some better pots.
Is there something in particular wrong with my pots? I do need to have my trees of a size that I can pick them up and put them in my kitchen in the winter
How did they do???
They did great all my cuttings grew. And the mother plant has 4 nice branches. It’s big though so I have a plan to give it away
What content you used not mention
I don’t understand your question.. try again?
Thank you
Wow so beautiful planting ❤🎉❤🎉❤
I'm trying to debate when to start my fall garden. It's still blazing hot in the Atlanta area so I may just wait until mid September. Wishing you plenty of success with your fall garden! 😊
I think I’d wait longer if I lived further south too. Good luck!
Beautiful garden! 👍💚😃
Very beautiful! 😃
Thank you
Wow, awesome flowers! 🌺💚😃
Thanks I love them
An aside, what kind of frogs are those harmonizing with you? I must have that playlist for sleeping 😀
Lol I love the frogs too. We have. A mix here. Toads. Green tree frogs. Grey tree frogs and spring peepers. I’m not 100% sure which are which or if you are hearing all of them together. I always have my windows open throughout the spring so I have a natural playlist for sleeping every night !
Landscape fabric at the bottom works good too
Or a small piece of a window screen
What are the rocks for? Keep the stems from blowing?
Yes. I put the rocks in so that they wouldn’t blow over before the roots were locked in. Now I still have rocks in the pots this summer to hold down the drip tubing for the drip irrigation I set up. Of course it’s raining so much I done even need it !
👍👍👍😀😀😀
👍👍👍😀
I suggest a fertilizer which contains iron and calcium. Works great if the leaves turn yellow.
Thanks for the advice. I will look into it
Defiantly you need to get rid of the clover (or weeds) growing in your pots. It’s robing nutrients and water from your citrus tree feeder roots.
Thank you. I have taken care of it. It’s a tough weed to get rid of. The tree still a bit rough but it will recover
Looks great! I am going to attempt to grow garlic for the first time this fall! I am so anxious to get started! Lol😊
That’s terrific! I have had great luck each time I tried it. I start it in the end of October. Let it over winter and harvest it end of June, I just looked and I did last year’s harvest at the exact same time. Enjoy! And thanks for watching „
I love your lime tree!!
Thanks!
I do too!
