Finally, TH-cam added you to my suggested videos - and I’m so GLAD it did! Your videos are magical! I LOVE how you show so much of a plant’s transformation in a single video. Amazing.... your videos are so clearly thought out, and thorough... I look forward to watching more of your uploads.
Is that you singing, Siloe? You are adorably multitalented! I'm a fan of all that you do, your videos, your advise and how eloquent you are in explaining things!
@@suburbanhomestead Oh, I love seeing you in your suspenders. I have a hard time with antiques, but you fit perfectly in that house. I wish I could garden dressed like you, but not here in Costa Rica... I love everything about your videos. You deserve 100x as many viewers. The only thing is that I have to watch them at twice the speed.
This channel reminds me of the PBS shows I used to watch with my grandparents. And I mean that in the absolute best way possible. Thanks for continuing and I can’t wait for the next one. I’ve got garlic, beets, radishes, and carrots in my first hugelkultur bed so it is good to see I’m not the only one trying these pairings together.
You make so many people profoundly happy mr. Siloe. Thank you for the meticulous attention to detail you put into your cinematography, and your original music, so lovely. Not to mention the gardening tips.
Summer may have finished on the calendar bit it seems the heat hasn't run out here! I hope your autumn garden is glorious! I'm waiting (impatiently) for the heat to break to sow brassicas!
I’ve been debating trying beets again and I’m taking this as my sign to go for it! Another great video. I just love when you cook the unique crops from your garden. Thank you!! 🙏🏾
Thank you, Siloe!I'm going to plant them starting tomorrow, I will be succession planting, I got a ton in a seed exchange so I am excited! So happy to see another gorgeous informative video from you , Thank you! Please no 8 month breaks ever again! The gardening community needs you! 💗🦋👍
Thank you very much LaDonna for your support! Thanks for going out of your way to help me produce new videos. I believe you see the value in quality videos.
So happy to see another video from you. That too right on time. We are just starting our seedlings indoors here in Germany and I am going to try the glasswindow trick this time. Thanks again!
I love your utilitarian approach to gardening. Versatile, natural, and pragmatic. Highly refreshing and reminds me of how my grandmother and mother gardened.
I just LOVED your channel, coming from a photography background (professional) and JUST getting my feet wet in video making (recreational), I am grateful for both, your teachings and the quality that you present this info, while I watch the video, I can't stop to wonder about where your camera (s) is placed, maybe you went back later and shot some broll.. Do you stop and move cameras around... etc etc... I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoy your channel for many reasons :)
Idyllic. Thanks for sharing your garden adventures and your specially composed songs with us. I was going to plant sugar snap peas outside today but the soil has the top two inches frozen in our raised beds. We need some window frames. 🌱🙂
I recently discovered your channel and I am highly impressed by the educational value of your videos as well as the effort you put into your creations. Your editing is on point and your singing was a very nice addition to this particular video. Keep up the great work! Greetings from Vienna, Austria. PS You have a pronounced sense of fashion
Loved the transformation part of the garden ♥ ,and the journey of the beets from seed to harvest , It was such an experience !! I never seen Salsify before so i got to learn something new , thank you as always for another informative and beautiful video :)
See always something new to learn. Eating more than one part of the plant. That is why I say to people never talk down to someone because there is always something new to learn after all also no one knows it all. Stay humble people. Love the video. Music and all. And the way it was put togeather.
Your videos are some of the absolute finest quality that can be found on youtube. You continue to be one of my all time favorite channels! Quite frankly I'm surprised you don't have your own TV channel with your level of skill and dedication. And by the way, do you have any plans for a paw paw tree in the shady part your yard?
This will be my second season for growing. Last year my beets competed with tough soil. I did a lot of on the spot compost to over winter. Hopefully I'll get nice round instead of long skinny and little.lol. I love all the videos. Did you change a lot in your garden. I see more defined spaces and not so much rural area. It looks very nice.
There has been changes, but more changes will be shown in future videos :-) Also I think your on the spot composting will help make your soil better. Sometimes I forget that I've been working my soil for about 10 years and that it is not so common for people to have soil with good structure.
That is a wonderful suggestion. It would be lovely to see a garden to table book with so many of the vegetables we grow here. I tried growing large pale green summer squash after watching your video/ sandwich. The seeds said superior flavor and texture but wow! What an understatement! Exquisite! And the plants survived or record-breaking 47+°c / 117+F day too! So thank you for encouraging me to try something new, utterly delicious and so unexpectedly robust in our sometimes extremely hot climate!
I love your radish leave dish from one of your videos last year, I'd never had thought of using them like that. It's become a firm favourite in our house. Lovely video once again.
Steph Krunic And when that someday comes up, I can imagine the book : The Suburban Homestead Garden table cookbook.. I can definitely imagine this. Yet Mr. Siloe Oliveira is right, take this slow
Thanks for sharing the tip on salsify shoots. (And identifying the "flowering weed" growing beside the driveway! Haha I knew I put those seeds somewhere!) We are pleased to hear you have started work on the book. The boys and I look forward to seeing it!
This video made me remember how I found your channel a while ago when you made a video about salsify. I have not grown them yet, but I can't wait to do so. As always, great job on the video art and quality 👍 Keep up the good work. God bless you. 🤗
Oh, I thought those teepee structures were ornamental trellises, I didn't see the mesh at the bottom. How clever! I just may try that myself this year. I have a groundhog who eats everything except chard for some reason! The critter completely defoliate my beans and peppers last year.
Thanks for another great video. I didn't know that you could eat the shoots and flowers of salsify. I'll be trying it when mine start to bud. I love asparagus so it will be a treat for me after the asparagus quits producing for the year. Much Love
I don't have groundhogs, but the birds just really love beet seedlings! So, I do like Charles Dowding, and transplant seedlings.They grow well for awhile if I can keep the birds off, but I still have not had any great beets,.I have been trying all year! I have the same issue with carrots, I think it's my heavy clay soil.
Thanks for the beautiful video. It's just started snowing but my asparagus seeds are coming up under my indoor lights. Like it or not, I've got to create a cold frame or low tunnel because there's no way I have room for them inside in a month or so. This is a taste of the season to come!
Have you ever grown hostas? They are a great shade vegetable with a texture and taste similar to scallions once cooked. Gonna need to start some salsify this year, that looked so good!
I find that it works, but you need to put your slower and lower plants on the outside, and depending on where you live will help you decide which side of the bed to put them on. Where I live I would put the beets on the outside, and my beds run north - south, so the beets would go on the west side. If it is very hot where you live, you may want them on the east side, since the heat will slow the growth of some veg.
Are you growing radishes?.....third year i am trying doing that, but getting only leaves....if the other your watchers have the same problem it will be so nice if you say little bit about growing them. Thank you for great gob you are doing.
Hey, when did you get the hori hori knife? I got one for Christmas and I'm so excited to use it but it started snowing again last night and now we're almost a foot deep in powdery, cold snow. I can't wait for spring to come.
The beets that bolted...can you keep them to produce seeds so you don't have to buy seed packets every time you want to plant? Can you do a video on collecting seeds and allowing some plants to go to seed?
I head you mention that the radishes had bolted and so were no longer eatable... made me wonder if you've tried radish pods? The radish will set seed in a pod that if picked young and green, is eatable, much like a pea pod. I've never had the pleasure myself because the goats would always get to them before I could.
:) these are similar sentiments to mine.... even after seeing the previous 2 videos this year.... each new offering is lovely, greeted with delight and deeply appreciated.
Leave a couple of radishes that go to seed the seed pods delicious to snack on while in the garden. I collect them when they are young and serve them as snack with beer or wine. They are a little spicy and crunchy with a rust of flavor.
one of the best gardening channels on all of youtube.
Thanks for the kind words.
I'd have to say THE BEST gardening channel!
It is.
Just discovered it, and it's a shame he doesn't have more viewers.
I am stunned at the idea of making the cold frame the same size as the cover cage and everything moveable. Brilliant.
Finally, TH-cam added you to my suggested videos - and I’m so GLAD it did! Your videos are magical! I LOVE how you show so much of a plant’s transformation in a single video. Amazing.... your videos are so clearly thought out, and thorough... I look forward to watching more of your uploads.

Ugh, your videos are always so gorgeous and you can really see the effort you put into them. Also, looking dapper in your suspenders as always!
Thank you. I felt that using suspenders gives me more of a character feel. They are very comfortable also

Watching spring videos makes me less sad that summer has ended here in Australia
I absolutely love the music in your vids btw💓
Thanks! I'm happy to inspire

I am growing beets this year for the first time, so I am following your suggestions, they always work. 🐞
I’ve been debating trying beets again and I’m taking this as my sign to go for it!
Another great video. I just love when you cook the unique crops from your garden. Thank you!! 🙏🏾
I hope you have success this time.
Love your garden! How beautiful and packed full of plants!

I love your utilitarian approach to gardening. Versatile, natural, and pragmatic. Highly refreshing and reminds me of how my grandmother and mother gardened.
I'm glad you are going ahead with the book, wishing you the best!
please keep up your programs I have just recently found your channel I love them , you are comforting to listen to
Your garden is a wonderful expression of the seasons, and your passion too!
Thank you - I love your videos.
I enjoy the artistic difference and beauty in your gardening videos versus the others I watch. Looking forward to getting your book for my son.
You are a all rounder. Great paintings, music and video :)

Hi Siloe'. So nice to see a new video from you. I also enjoy your music. I can hear Brazilian Jazz in the roots of your songs...Very nice.
Thanks. There is certainly bossa nova reference :-)
I love seeing you get outside and start planting, we still have snow!
You are awesome May God always bless you
Thanks!

Another gorgeous video Siloe.. Enjoyed every second of it :)
Well this answers the question I left on one of your design videos whether you are also.musically gifted.
I just dabble with it, but I an amateur.
@@suburbanhomestead I wouldn't describe you as amateur at anything, including music/vocals. You have a rich timbre.
This will be my second season for growing. Last year my beets competed with tough soil. I did a lot of on the spot compost to over winter.

Thank you: I did not know that beets couple be planted before the frosts were finished.
Yes, they tolerate light frost, but I deep freezes may not be good for them. A cold frame becomes a perfect environment for them.
@@suburbanhomestead I will keep a close watch on the weather report, then
Learned something totally new. Thank you so much. Salsify is now on the list of plants to grow.
Hello from Slovenia. I love your videos, they are so unique. Great work. Very lovely garden.
Thank you!
Once again a great video, you should do a cook book of all the food you try or cook. That would be an interesting etsy idea. Greets from Germany
Thank you. Perhaps in the future I'll try that. But lets do it slowly first.
That is a wonderful suggestion. It would be lovely to see a garden to table book with so many of the vegetables we grow here.

Wow, you are so creative. I like your style.
one of the best clips in your videos is when those cute birdhouses are in the backgroud!!!! Have you made them yourself?
This video made me remember how I found your channel a while ago when you made a video about salsify. I have not grown them yet, but I can't wait to do so. As always, great job on the video art and quality 👍

glad to see you again.
Hello there! In my part of Georgia, it is VERY rainy. I try to take advantage of it. Thanks for this!
It's been raining way too much this past year
I love watching your videos,,It makes my day.. Keep up the good work..
Love from Bangladesh..❤
I'm so excited about the book!
Another great video. I’m looking forward to seeing what you do for the children’s book!
Thank you. I hope you like it

Hi from Holland :-) Love your video's and admiring/enjoying your all-round creativity
Loved the video and happy to see the harvest :)
I love your song, wonderful! Great video as always💕. I have never eaten falsify but will have to grow some. I'm intrigued
Thanks! hope you like it.

So, I do like Charles Dowding, and transplant seedlings.They grow well for awhile if I can keep the birds off, but I still have not had any great beets,.I have been trying all year! I have the same issue with carrots, I think it's my heavy clay soil.
They do prefer soil that is lighter and well draining
We have heavy clay as well, and until a few years pass and it improves, we finally decided to grow carrots and beets in pots. Much better. Try it :)
Thanks for the beautiful video. It's just started snowing but my asparagus seeds are coming up under my indoor lights. Like it or not, I've got to create a cold frame or low tunnel because there's no way I have room for them inside in a month or so. This is a taste of the season to come!
Yes, there really is never enough room inside a gardeners home in early spring
The Salsify flowers are gorgeous to look at! interesting flavor & perennial by self sowing? What's not to like?
Salsify , never tried this. Will hunt some seeds and try. Thank you.
He's back yay!
Pretty calming tutorial, thanks
Classic ! i love it
Beautiful garden. Keep growing!
Thanks!
Radish pods are delicious also.
Your videos are so beautiful, your song is nice :)
Have you ever grown hostas? They are a great shade vegetable with a texture and taste similar to scallions once cooked. Gonna need to start some salsify this year, that looked so good!
I add tender young beet leaves to my salads, tasty!
Thank you for everything!

Good beets harvest. I am yet to see the beet root develop on mine.
The beets that bolted...can you keep them to produce seeds so you don't have to buy seed packets every time you want to plant? Can you do a video on collecting seeds and allowing some plants to go to seed?
That little ditty was super wild in the context of 2019. Let your freak flag fly, brother!
Hmmm my beets did not grow well last year..could have been lack of sun light . Great video
It probably was that. They also need adequate water to grow well
Thank you for sharing.
Amazing!
You're right - clear plastic or glass warms the soil much better than black, which is what lots of people use. Black plastic shades the soil.
That is true
The leaves of beets are edible too. I find them a bit tough though, so put them in soups.
Absolutely LOVE😍💞 your videos❣ I think along with your children's book you should make your music available 🎼🎶
It is available on bandcamp. The album is called taproot by suburban homestead.
thanks
I’m the worst at thinning out my veg! I just keep on thinking what a waste! :P
I completely get you!
Nice video! What are the shoots you created ?
Salsify
I head you mention that the radishes had bolted and so were no longer eatable... made me wonder if you've tried radish pods? The radish will set seed in a pod that if picked young and green, is eatable, much like a pea pod. I've never had the pleasure myself because the goats would always get to them before I could.
When did u sow your seeds? I also live in MD and want to start some too thanks
OMG you are back😍😍
This is the second video already this year (third technically, but I don't count the last one)
:) these are similar sentiments to mine.... even after seeing the previous 2 videos this year.... each new offering is lovely, greeted with delight and deeply appreciated.
