Tip for you labels near cages or trellis; hole punch the tag and use a twist tie or twine to attach to the TOP of the cage. It is so much easier to read the tags at the top, especially when the plants grow and you can hardly see the soil.
I can't wait for your cages to be available! Very needed in the marketplace. I keep putting different ones in my cart on various websites but never taking the plunge. Some forever cages would be almost priceless to me. lol
I’m really not sure why you decided to get rid of all your pathways and create this big bed. It looked like you were walking all over and compacting the soil. Also, why overhead watering when you had everything on drip?
Just fertilized my seedlings with Super thrive for the first time after watching Jacques talk about liquid fertilizer, holy MOLY I literally gagged from the smell 🥴 What we will do for our plants! 😂🌱💚
@@epichomesteading loved finding your channel in early spring! You’ve taught me and inspired me so much. Last year I tried seed starting, and only got one seed type to sprout. This year, I have two trays of Epic 6-cells and one tray of Epic-4 cells filled with beautiful plants 🌱🥰
I've been trying to do this style of planting more this year and it's surprisingly hard. I'm a professional creative but when I'm given a bunch of plants and open space I panic. 🤣
Midnight Roma is so gorgeous and makes a really nice, quick sauce. And thanks to Jacques mentioning in a previous vid Row 7’s Center Cut Squash, I’ll be growing that this year. Quite excited!
Ooo, love the seedlings in the greenhouse and the way they were picking and choosing like they were at a nursery. Yeah, nothing like growing your own!😊
I grew a current tomato variety.. 2 plants.. they are wild. I had a gazillion pea sized tomatoes 😅 they split easily, and some of them would over ripen on thier tress, before the lower fruits ripen. You have to stay o top of them! I did ferment a few quart jars of them, with basil and garlic.. and WOW! Fabulous with fresh mozzarella and crushed pepper!
@@igleamingrace I must say I was impressed with my ingenuity 😆 I was completely overwhelmed with the massive amount of these wee tomatoes at end of season .. Im in 5B and was expecting a frost.. was in clean up mode..so I picked them all.. and filled 2 quart jars and had a pint jar full as well. I love fermented foods and decided what can it hurt.. 🤷♀️ .. they were delicious! Yummy in salads too!
Yes, I had white currant tomatoes last year and I think they split before getting them in the house. I won’t grow them again as too many split on the vine or right after picking. They were very sweet though.
This is me every year! I get the grid paper out, mark the existing berries and such...I research the companions, plan plan plan. Then EVERY year, I go out and just start planting stuff! The Master Plan is aroubd someplace, but i get so excited to be digging in dirt that i just GO! Love it! ❤ Fun video!
Can you do some educating on the watering for us? I see you're using a sprinkler but I hear so much about drip watering and not watering the leaves, etc. New gardener here and not able to do drip watering. Thinking nature waters from above, why not us? But, I bow to the experts and will learn your ways! Thank you for always teaching us new and old ways, and keeping it all fun and interesting!!
My parents had a garden just like this, no paths needed. They just watch where they walk and walk right next to the plants. They see paths as a waste of space.
Every pepper plant I have ever grown i've grown in pairs. I have not only seen an increase in the amount of peppers I get but it doubles the amount of pepper plants I can have in a small space. These "Rules" that everyone says dont really ever seem to matter to me. Just do what works for you!
@gleamingrace I have not used different varieties such as hot and mild peppers together however, I have put 2 different varieties of Cayenne in the same plot and I did yellow and orange bells in the same plot which had no problem with each other.
@mwillis7791 literally they can be touching, I have been doing this for 6 years now and never had any issues. Now of course this is my practices in zone 5 so take your own zone into account. But I have even bought individual plants from big box stores brushed off a decent amount of soil and combined the two and that has even worked for me
@@kinginthenorth8148I'm in 5b and this tip is so timely!! I started several different varieties of hot peppers---too many seeds leading to too many plants. I'm about to just plant them close together to fit them all in the garden-thanks!
Misread title. Thought you made too large of raised beds, as I have, and thought i had company in my struggle. 2 of 4 filled, last frost in a week, wish me luck friends
I’m so jealous and proud at the same time! Your very own nursery…y’all were like kids in a candy store picking plants! 😂 Goals guys, goals! I definitely need those seed starting pots!
This looks SO FUN! Nice to see something done differently from all the other gardening channels out there. Can't wait to see the result when everything starts to fill in!
As a Filipino I must recommend you try calamansi juice. It's prepared the same as lemonade but it's wayyyyyyyy stronger in taste. It's a nice little Filipino refreshments
Sooo....you're Leonardo and Raphael then? Wasn't really clear without the coloured masks. As far as cosplay goes, I'd give this a 5/10 for at least having a real katana.
noooo! i did currant tomatoes two summers ago, & whilst they did taste good, they were a bitch to harvest. the clusters didn't ripen all at once, so i couldn't just snip off a cluster, i had to pick 2 or 3 at a time, & since they were so ridiculously tiny that took forever. also, they drop easily if you don't harvest in time, & last summer i was overrun by volunteers. never again. ugh. now i'm going to have nightmares of teeny tiny tomato clusters chasing me with a katana
I need a nice lightweight retractable hose, 75' is good, because I recently shattered both of my shoulders. Is there one you or your followers could recommend?
I bought a water bath canner so I am super excited to grow some paste tomatoes as well. The best marmalade I ever had had a little bit of amaretto in it. Just a thought if you haven't processed your loquats yet.
Haha! Love this! ❤ I have done this before. It's just so much fun when your cutting tool is so big that everyone has to step away back behind you. I'm surprised you didn't say, "Stop horse-radishing around!"😂 Another fantastic video! Absolutely great! Thank you for sharing!!❤❤
Don't be afraid to can pretty much ANY tomato...I just drop whatever is ripe when I'm canning into the blender (no skin removal since the skins have more lycopene) and then heat that up for hot-pack canning. Yes, it's a bit more watery than all paste tomatoes but at cooking time that is quickly resolved.
I used paste tomatoes last year and year before slicers. I will have to say slicers won out in the taste and aroma department. When I opened the paste jars they didn’t have near the fresh picked garden aroma as slicers nor the taste. I will try one more this year of Amish paste and see if that flavor is better, but doing many more slicers.
Looks like a nice area to plant what ever you want I was shocked to here that Jacques has 90 tomato plants now that's a lote I am glad to hear that he is not going to plant all 90 of them
Did you say that trellis and cage are soon to be available on your growepic site??? I can't wait! Those are the best I've seen, and I love that they fold flat!
they are also easy to grow. have had people growing them on a balcony. the teenage girl is the only one who could keep up with production. and I live in Denmark so they dont mind cool weather.
Hi, guys! I'm so excited to see you using a Wilcox trowel. I bought two of them long ago, like forty years. I have used them for absolutely everything because they're my first choice for almost every garden task, and they're still like new. They're my secret, but I won't mind if you tell.
Ooh, it’s hard to tell, but are those purple seedlings the purple amaranth variety that grows 8-12 feet tall? I grew it last year and it’s gorgeous. (This year I’m making sure to plant it on the north side of my plot so it doesn’t throw shade!)
Love the new bed! 1 question though, why are you doing overhead watering? I know that powdery mildew is a real concern (I live in central FL, so I have my fair share), wouldnt the overhead watering make that more prevalent?
They have much drier air, but for water conservation it would be best to do irrigation on the ground. Water in morning only, but the cool nights cause our mildew in Z5a.
@@dustyflats3832 I only asked because they have had many videos saying that it's very all over the place, so was just wondering their rationale. I lived in Southern California for 30 years so also familiar with the climate :)
I grew currant tomatoes for the first time last year and they are amazing. Very classic acidic tomato flavor and the vines are dainty but numerous. This makes them fantastic for a hanging basket just letting them spill over the sides and you can prune off tons of suckers if needed and still get hundreds and hundreds of perfect salad tomatoes.
I’m not sure what zone you’re in but does anyone know why they start squash indoors? I’m down south zone 7 and I’ve never germinated squash indoors. I direct seed. Squash and cucumbers germinate so quick for me that I’d do more damage to the roots germinating in trays.
I never understood that myself and I’m Z5a. Only two reasons I can think of-to avoid birds eating them and for squash to try and avoid the 2cycles they hatch in.
@@dustyflats3832 I never thought about the birds. I’ve got birds everywhere here and they never bother the squash. They do get angry at the tomatoes though. Last year they weren’t eating tomatoes they were attacking them lol
Nice Kitana! I like the wild gardening approach you are going for here. Definitely try to have a patch like that every season. Oh, how are the koi doing? Did your passion fruit water tank camo take off?
I liked this video. I have SO many starts needing to get in the ground & I get paralyzed with indecision. It takes forever & I want it to be done yesterday. 🙏🏼
hahaaaa that sprinkler blast at the end. GOTCHA! just had a moment like this today. was saying, "where is my damn hose--AHHH!" stepped on the handle and it blasted me in the seat. cold. "whelp, there it is...." also laughed so much with the katana or like when jaques was in the background slicing with it and you just ignoring him and planting LOLLL
An R&D tip... Those square tomato cages are nice but (always a but huh?) it would be better in my mind if they had five sides. Think a star shaped Florida weave. Just a thought I had when I saw you placing it.
I was surprised to see you go to in ground gardening! I have had 4 raised beds, but the rest is in ground. Changing to 3’ wide in ground rows. Raised beds are nice to a point, but I can’t justify the cost, they dry out quickly and lost space with paths. It will be much easier to irrigate and use various covers that seem to be necessary these days with changing weather to just use rows. It will be SO nice to just grab a cover and know it will fit and easy to flip on the hoops. Re-doing polycarbonate panels on GH this year and creating a heat sink and a bit larger. I ran out of room😅 Tomatoes-I know some prune to single leader, but we have way too many to keep that up and actually last year I noticed the ones in cages did much better. It gets too hot to shear off leaves. I will top later in season to help remaining fruit ripen as the new growth won’t have time to produce fruit anyway. I only prune a few limbs to help air flow so they can dry out. It’s still been so cold in WI especially at night 20s and the weather has been difficult to winter sow or start spring gardening because of ever changing temperatures extremes, 90*F to 6” of snow is extreme. And yet we had 40s and rain in January-crazy. Great job and looking forward to see results.
I'm struggling with watching the most recent content on your channels. IDK who told you guys that comedy was your strong point, it's not. Not every video has to be the "insert plant here" throwdown. If it isn't some corny video, it's an informercial about seeds. I'm going to take a break from your channel, hopefully you go back to the informative interesting videos you used to do.
Not many channels I’ve ever seen on TH-cam get 2 15 sec ads at video intro and some in the video it’s like watching Hulu with ads shesh! TH-cam loves your channel!
When I get too many currant tomatoes to eat fresh, I pickle them. In season, I just do refrigerator pickling and at end of season, I water bath can them. Either method, they're excellent in salads, on pizzas, with soft cheeses.
This is seriously my favorite channel. I love learning about gardening while still being heavily entertained 😆
Tip for you labels near cages or trellis; hole punch the tag and use a twist tie or twine to attach to the TOP of the cage. It is so much easier to read the tags at the top, especially when the plants grow and you can hardly see the soil.
Love this lower tech garden - no metal beds, no drip, just plants in the ground and some basic trellising. Beautiful!!
I can't wait for your cages to be available! Very needed in the marketplace. I keep putting different ones in my cart on various websites but never taking the plunge. Some forever cages would be almost priceless to me. lol
Love the sword harvest :D You two make gardening fun!
I’m really not sure why you decided to get rid of all your pathways and create this big bed. It looked like you were walking all over and compacting the soil. Also, why overhead watering when you had everything on drip?
Mixing it up and having fun
Always love the intro with you two laughing at each other as you come in 😂
Yeah, feels like catching the middle of a movie
Best intro ever!
YES it's my favorite! The fact that they are doing it jokingly gives it an extra layer. Like "Oh, I didn't see you there!" from kids' shows!

It's a way of preventing disease. Splash back from soil to the leaves can carry soil-borne stuff, for example.
Umm, so maybe zip tie the panels to that new sturdy cage you have. It might work out better.
My husband made some tomato cages from cattle panel that look similar to yours! They work great!
Im sold on those trellises 👁👄👁
Once these plants fill in, how will you access the interior of the bed for harvesting? Do you plan to have paths?
My parents had a garden just like this, no paths needed. They just watch where they walk and walk right next to the plants. They see paths as a waste of space.
