    Hi Oli and Tacia, shame about your garden but, that's Alaska for ya the weeds take right over. You do have some good bear activity there. I can't believe all the different berries you have, I would never leave, lol. Sorry about your finger, Tacia. My favorite time of the year is Winter, I just love the snow. Thanks for sharing.

      Hi John ,
      Yeah the weeds won the battle lol , we will try again next spring ,
      The finger healed very well , thank you ☺️.
      Amazing how much bear activity we witness but really only see tracks and signs . That’s ok 😉😃.
      Not much longer and your favorite time of year will be here again John 👍😃
      Have a great weekend John , be safe !!

    Hi Oli and Tacia- I enjoyed this and glad to see you both at the cabin again. It's so beautiful there. The cabin is looking great, and it is so cozy inside, you've both done a great job with it. I love blueberry picking, when we lived in Amish country, they had a few farms where you can pick apples, strawberries, blueberries and peaches but you guys have them in your own backyard which I love. I use mine to make smoothies and blueberry syrup for my yogurt and granola. I also want to start making my own cereal using freeze dried fruits and granola. Tacia, I hope your hand is feeling better, when you showed your finger and the blood I almost passed out as I hate to see blood, but you were a trooper. You guys were able to get a few potatoes and next year will be even better. Oli that pancake and mushrooms looked good. I agree with you both, I love the Fall as well, the colors of the trees and all the beauty that goes along with it. I hope you guys have a great week ahead and can't wait for the trip. Thank you for sharing another video! Also, I know you probably already know about this channel, but they have a video for growing potatoes and garlic.

    It is worth taking care of the place for potato cultivation already in autumn. The treatments that should be performed then are deep ploughing and harrowing the ground, or digging it with a spade if the bed is small. It is also necessary to remove weeds and fertilize the substrate with manure. Before winter, it is worth using phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. After each fertilization of the soil, it should be plowed. In spring, it is necessary to harrow the field again and use nitrogen fertilizer. If the plants are grown in the garden or on the plot, humus fertilizer will suffice.

    For planting potatoes, you should choose seed potatoes that have produced at least 4 sprouts each. The tubers should also not have mechanical damage.
    Potatoes are planted at a depth of 4 to 8 cm. The distance between the seedlings should be 20-40 cm, and between the rows - 60-90 cm. After planting, potatoes should be covered with a 2 cm layer of soil. Very early and early varieties of potatoes are planted as early as the turn of March and April. Due to the risk of frost, the bed can be protected with non-woven fabric. Later varieties of potatoes should be planted in the second half of April.

    Potato tubers accumulate a large amount of water, so they do not need to be watered immediately after planting. Later watering, however, is recommended, especially during periods of drought. The plant has the highest demand for water during flowering. Regular weed removal, hoeing and pest protection are also essential.
    An important procedure in potato cultivation is the formation of ridges up to a height of about 30 cm. The treatment should be performed 2-3 times, every week after planting the tubers.
    It is good to fertilize potatoes with mineral fertilizers - phosphorus and potassium.

    She is right about potato seeds are the eyes a potato is alive even after harvest that’s why when you leave a potato out it will start to sprout remember a potato has very little solid and is mostly 82% starch and water the potato converts the starch into sugar as nutrients for the seed!
