    That's a good list you gave us, thanks. Howard Garrett used to recommend home brewed garlic/pepper tea for some garden pests. True pyrethrin would be another organic and natural pesticide. Ants bite my okra blooms and pods to feed off the sap they ooze out and they attacked my potatoes for the first time this year biting the new stem growth and blooms. Drats.

    I'm trying our corn in our 21x4 raised bed this year. With a squash on each end and the blue lake bush beans around the edges. 3 feet of corn down the middle. So we shall see. We haven't had any luck with it in ground.

    I haven't had alot of issues with ants in the corn, worms though. I've only tried corn twice. I don't think I have my spacing right, they aren't full. My neighbor gave me some red and blue corn seeds yesterday. I'm excited to try them!

    Luckily my sweetpotatoes have sprouted up so I spread them out and they are growing great. My Jerusalem artichokes are doing well and my tobbaco plant is sky high and blooming.

  • @amyking3236
    @amyking3236 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Sweet potatoes are great because you can also eat the leaves either cooked or raw in a salad or on a sandwich. Also the ducks and rabbits love them for additional feed as the Summer heat cooks all the other vegetation. That's why I grow them.

    My grandmother grew corn in her back yard and I always saw her small crop planted with mint between and bordering the corn. The area she lived in is considered Zone 8b here in Texas as well.

      I plant my sweet potato slips after 'last frost.' As the vines grow, I'll bury a foot or so if the middle of a vine (usually pull the leaves off but not always), maybe an inch deep. All those leaf junctions will potentially root too and grow sweet potatoes. Then I wait til just before our first freeze to harvest. The greens are edible to people and most animals too. Then, keep a few to grow new slips and keep some vine segments to root. Keep a small pot inside during winter so in spring I have slips and rooted stems ready for planting.

    Not sure if this would work with ants in your area but have you considered planting a row of marigold flowers next to the corn row to repel ants?

  • @reneebrown2968
    @reneebrown2968 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Don't let okra go to seed until you have ate all the okra you want. It will stop producing as soon as one pod goes to seed.

  • @ashleehouse5204
    @ashleehouse5204 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Ok.. so, everyone loves beans and peas. Maybe im doing something wrong. It takes HOURS to get enough beans/peas out of the pods to cook anything. Is that just how it is, or am I doing it wrong?

    • @CountryLivingExperience
      @CountryLivingExperience  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Shelling beans and peas is a laborious process. Good things come with hard work. They do take some time.

    Have you tried Diatomaceous earth? I just heard about using it in the garden. Not sure if it will help with your ants. I am going to throw some on the top of my soil to help with pests. Would like to know if you tried it and whether or not it works for you.

    • @CountryLivingExperience
      @CountryLivingExperience  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I have tried it before but maybe I didn't put enough so I did not see results. Thank you for the reminder.

      @@CountryLivingExperience I would make a barrier around the entire crop if you are going to try it. If the wind blows it away or there is a way around it they will find a way. Ants are great at navigating obstacles.

      I struggle with corn too. I've been told by some locals it's improper spacing so they aren't getting pollinated. I keep planting it bc the animals love it.
