      @GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      No that's not correct, if you check out the link for the biodynamic gardening book in this video's description (Amazon), that's what I'm going by. It doesn't go by the typical full moon,new moon etc. It goes more by whether the moon is ascending or descending, check it out and have a blessed day!

    I use row covers but the cover is fine mesh called vegie netting so I can use the clips without damage to the net. Does the fabric you use work in frost protection too?

    Hey guys!
    I found your channel a few weeks ago, some good quality content here. I like how you do things no till and everything is very organized.
    Do you have any issues with earwigs. They seem to be my worst enemy when growing broccoli. Any tips or tricks to keep them away?
    Great tips and thanks for sharing.
    Cheers from Ontario, Canada.
    Happy gardening!

    • @GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork
      @GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The only good thing about earwigs is that they eat a good quantity of aphids,I believe that beneficial nematodes will take care of them.

    Excellent video. I've been using very thing Thule fabric but it's not as wide as what you used. Is that the thinnest material available from that source? The reason I'm asking is you can see right through my thule fabric and I'd prefer more sun here in chicago.

    • @GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork
      @GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes I think it is the thinnest fabric. If you're growing brassicas under it, it let's in plenty of light - they do very well under it. I've grown summer squash under it as we'll and it also does fine. Actually I haven't had anything not do well under it - I've done carrots too. So you might just try it and see for yourself. It looks like it's way to thick and would really hinder plant growth but that hasn't been my experience with it.

    • @MichaelJosephJr934
      @MichaelJosephJr934 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    • @GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork

      That would be difficult as the table or sawhorses would not be near sturdy enough, you would end up twisting the whole contraption and it'd end up a heap on the ground 🤣

      I can’t really tell. It moves very fast. It’s tiny like the head of a stick pin small. It’s not boring like a leaf miner it’s just eating holes in my leaves.

      You can use beneficial nematodes to get rid of the flea beetles, there's 3 different species that you can order so just make sure that you buy the right one for flea beetles, this is also a good time of year to apply them to your garden. Blessings to you!
