Having a problem with your zucchini staying small and then falling off the plant? That means they are most likely not getting pollinated. Squash and zucchini have both male and female flowers and pollination has to occur by getting pollen from the male flower into the female flower. I'm going to teach you how to hand pollinate to ensure you get a huge harvest!

Preserving the Harvest | Carrot Pickles + Giardiniera
มุมมอง 37121 วันที่ผ่านมา
I pulled a ton of carrots from the garden so it was time to get to work in the kitchen preparing them to be preserved for later use. My favorite way to preserve carrots is to make carrot pickles, so that's what we did! We also had some cauliflower, sugar snap peas, and jalapenos we didn't want to go to waste, so into the jar those went as well! Pickled mixed veggies are called giardiniera, and ...

I need your help with my tomatoes- is it herbicide poisoning, curly top virus, or something else?
มุมมอง 77528 วันที่ผ่านมา
Hey friends, I need your help! I am having tomato troubles in the garden and I would love some advice on diagnosing my problem. I thought for sure it was herbicide poisoning, but now I don't know, I'm also thinking maybe curly top virus is a possibility. Have you dealt with this in your garden or know someone who has? I'd very much appreciate any advice or input!

How long do you dehydrate your herbs for? I’m in Anderson area.
Thank you for this video. I’m wanting to learn how to can myself and pass it onto my daughter. Can’t wait for more canning videos.
THANK YOU!! 💕
Excited for your canning video! ❤
It's posted already!
Great Job and a Precious FAMILY!😇!😇!😇!😇!😇!😇!
Thank you so much!
Great gardening awesome video
Thank you so much 🙂
Hi Bri! Sundee here. (Am on my farm channel account today). First, thank you for making this video! I have always been unsure about canning (had a mason jar shatter glass all over the place once) and after your video today I might feel comfortable trying again! Second, would you mind doing a canning video with tomatoes in the future? Lastly, you were right! The cabbage is "balling" up! No pun intended for the "ball grabber" 😂.
Glad it was helpful! I hope to be doing tons of canning with my tomatoes, I'll make sure to video!
Good afternoon, thank you so much for the information ❤
You are so welcome
I am going to call that a ball grabber from now on lol
🤣🤣
Now how do you eat up the Swiss chard? Fresh salads? And the kale? In soups, spaghetti? Give me ideas how to eat it each week.
I use kale and swiss chard the same ways. I love it cooked with eggs, thrown into soups, mixed into pastas or casserole, smoothies, dehydrated and powdered to add into any meal for a boost of nutrion.
I just love your channel! I love your garden videos, but especially love your cooking videos. I can’t wait to try this jam. It looks delicious!
Thank you so much, glad you're here!
enjoy being with you. Have a blessed night.
Your garden looks so healthy. Nice yield of vegetables. thanks for sharing!😊
Thank you!
Beautiful video! Two questions: why do you plant in tubs? Where do you get your wood chips for your pathways? I’m in Monett and looking for an affordable source of wood mulch.
Hi neighbor! I plant in tubs becaus it makes harvesting green beans much easier when I don't have to crawl on the ground to do it. I have also had much less pest pressure that way. The wood chips are from the recycling center and also from a tree company that dropped a load off at my house.
Love your videos!! Love how real you are! 😂
🥰🥰
Excited to see how you process everything! I have been bad this year about getting harvests and not doing anything with my food! My chickens are loving it and compost pile, but I’d rather be eating it! This is my first year gardening so I’m thankful for anything at all growing.
I have done the same thing - I try so hard to use everything, but if I don't get to it, I still consider feeding it to my animals a worthy use - because it in turn is still food for me eventually.
Will definitely try this as I have been wondering why do my butternut squash not producing.
Thanks for sharing your farm! P.S. The cabbage is making balls! Oh! The purple cauliflower! WOW!
It is so beautiful!
Nice !! i was taught another trick, to take a q-tip and get the pollen from the male flower and rub it in the female flower. it works for me !!
🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿 LOVELY, YUMMY HARVEST! ENJOY!!! 🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿
Swiss chard is the champion of the garden!
Yes, it thrives all summer!
Great harvest ❤❤❤
Thank you!
You do an amazing job growing. Thanks for sharing with us!!!😊
Thank you, so glad you're here!
Fabulous harvest ❤!! How are the tomatoes doing now?
Thank you! Many have recovered, some are looking ok but not great, and there are a few that look awful. But overall, so much better!
Glad to hear they were not a total loss! I have seen so many posts about similar tomato issues. There’s definitely something going on.
Since watching this video a couple weeks ago, I have seen so many people posting in different groups about this very issue on their tomato plants. I would love to know how your tomatoes are doing now.
So not looking forward to squash bugs this year 😩 be cool to find a solution other than having to pick them by hand. Especially for us who grow so many plants! Nice garden!
Could you use diatomaceous earth for the squash bugs?
I need to get some to try!
I'm going to attempt cauliflower for the first time this year. Did you say the colored ones are easier to grow?
I don't know they are any easier to grow, but I have noticed less peat pressure on them!
Nice garden area.
Thank you!
In WI squash bugs are more prolific in early summer so I usually get mine started a little later. Will be planting in a couple weeks. 😊
Good luck!
I could NEVER squash them in my hands. Nor pick them up barehanded. I wear gloves and take a bucket of soapy water. Less guts 😂
😅 they are nasty things!
Thank you for the information! I planted my first crop of zucchini this year so the visuals help me.
You're so welcome! Hope you have a great harvest!
Many of mine are doing it too. I have found some green aphids on the bottom of mine... and some white fly eggs. I was thinking this was my problem. If you figure it out please share with me.😊
I talked to my states ag extension office and they said it is classic herbicide poisoning. Some of my plants are starting to look much better though.
Thanks so much for sharing your pest struggles! It can be so frustrating and I am glad to know I am not alone!
You are definitely not alone! Squash bugs, vine borers and cucumber beetles are my biggest problem every year!
I always wonder how we moms do all that we do! I totally cringed at those squash bug eggs. lol
Glad you are ok from the storms
Thank you, we have been very blessed with only a few limbs down!
Zone 6 here so your garden is a wonderful preview of what’s to come for me! :)
Such an exciting time!
Hi Bri! I am a few days late to your video. Question! I am in 6b (Kentucky)... only a few miles from 7a (lol). This is my first year growing cabbage. It is huge! But it is not making the ball in the middle. Do you know if that really matters? Your garden is gorgeous!
Hi Sundee! Cabbage plants do get huge! I love the use the outside leaves that don't form into a ball to make cabbage rolls!
@@6Heartson6Acres that was in the plans. I am just wondering if these guys will ever make the big ball in the middle lol! Time will tell. :)
@@gallerie80906 I'm sure they will, some just take longer than others!
I'm 67 and will be canning this year for the first time. Thank you for showing the basics. Do you add water and wait for the water to boil again for each batch? It looked like the jars need to be completely submerged? And did you leave an air space in the jars? I worry that I won't have someone to monitor my canning for the first time. Is it possible to mess up and get sick from it?
Hi Leslie! Good luck on your canning adventure, I'm sure you will fall in love with it! I'll make a canning basics video next week for you! You use the same water for every batch, but don't start your timer until it's boiling. For water bath canning your jars do need to be completely submerged - and yes their needs to be a space at the top, the amount is different for each item you're canning. You can get sick if you don't follow guidelines, I recommend grabbing a ball canning book!
@@6Heartson6Acres Thank you!!!! and thank you yes, I have the Ball book.
@@6Heartson6Acres I'm thinking I don't have a pot rack. Can I substitute something for it?
@@lesliekendall5668 you need something to separate your jars from the bottom of your pot. I've seen some people use dish towels, but have never tried that.
I'm in 7a and I've had artichoke not last through the winter and some that did but then died the 2nd winter. If a person doesn't want to dig them up and store them inside, I'd suggest a DEEP mulch and maybe even a cover over all of it..
Thanks for the tips!
The largest perennial bulb onion I've found is the Green Mountain Potato onion. The bulbs are the size of a quarter to a silver dollar. And they're considered perennial because you take the smaller ones and replant them in the spring like you do with garlic cloves. I also think if you leave them in the ground they'll contunue to grow. I've only had one season of them and pulled up all of them to have a crop and more to replant this year. I'll leave a few in the ground this fall to see what happens.
Only 2,000 subs but 61,000 views on this one video. Come on people!
After perennial fruits and veggies, the next step is to learn about and plant perennial edible flowers. Roses, Hosta, and Day lilies are a few. And I recently learned that maple leaves are edible. There was even an article of a little Asian lady that batter fries them and sells them at a little food stand. Boise, 7a, and subbed.
Awww you're little guy is adorable :)
Great video. I love your rooster, and Grizz is so good-looking
🥰🥰
Great video. I love your rooster, and Grizz is so good-looking
lol, I always wanted to know what garlic looked like “ half” peeled. So cute
My guy obviously loves the camera! 🤣
I noticed my tomatoes also curling up, but it has started from the bottom leaves. I googled it, and it said the top reason is wind damage, and yes, we have had 3-4 very windy days. Hoping my plants will survive, if not I will start over with new plants.
It turned out to be wind damage and my tomatoes recovered quickly and are doing fine!
❤❤❤
I am in Maine and will be planting them for the first time! The methods may be a bit different because of the short season.
We went to Bar Harbor last October, absolutely beautiful place!
