Now remember your green tomatoes do ripen even though they're green so if you want green fried tomatoes make sure you pick it before it ripens so you get that green fried taste Just thought I would point that out 😊
Scabiosa is a cool flower. They like to sprout in colder conditions. I winter sow mine in plastic bottles. They can survive some frost if well established. The one plant in the greenhouse survived but the one outside got hit pretty hard with minus 13 C. So far is not showing signs of new shoots. My guess is that it can survive maybe up to minus ten as my greenhouse is small and not heated. They kept blooming up to that very hard frost despite being hit myltiple times by minus temperatures. They seem to like cold and humid weather kinda like the one we have in UK.
regarding okra, it might be heavily dependent on the variety. If you see okra at your local farmer's market, that's might be the variety to grow. or connect with other local gardeners and ask them. okra is probably the easiest plant to grow where I live. so it's definitely not a skill issue on your part!
With the Aster, moist cold stratify 4-6 weeks on a damp paper towel inside a plastic sandwich bag inside the refrigerator before sowing in soil. The lemon basil makes delicious tea. I am not a basil fan. Nor am I a lemon fan. So, I grow lime basil for tea. It is absolutely delicious! The Orange Wonder Snapdragon looks beautiful. Share all those pumpkins with the neighborhood kids-or your oldest child's classmates. We share with our elderly neighbors and co-workers.
Thanks for the Aster tip...will definitely be trying it! I've never had basil tea but I'll try it this year. Lemon basil ice tea sounds refreshing! I used all my pumpkins for decoration and the neighborhood kids harvested some themselves. They thought it was so cool growing in the backyard.😀
The mexican cucumbers take a long time to grow for us in Washington, I'm going to start them early and start more each week to try to get more of an idea of the best time to start here.
The black heirloom tomatoes are fabulous, multi-varieties from Baker Creek. They are a household favorite. Yes, milkweed seeds and bells of Ireland need cold stratificationm so do poppies and columbines.
That's really interesting that the spoon tomato plant was tiny for you. I grew two and they turned into massive bushes. They're delicious, but were SO MUCH WORK for such a tiny volume of tomatoes, I'm not growing them this year. It would take me an hour to pick two cups of tomatoes. The flavor is incredible, though.
Interesting! It wasn't more than a foot tall but looking back it could have been the new soil I planted in? The other plants I grew in the same bed definitely struggled.
@@easygrowinggarden maybe! I'm in zone 7 and grew mine in a grow bag with my own homemade soil mix. But, they grew about the same as all of my others. It took a little longer for them to take off, but once they did I couldn't stay on top of them 😆
The Heavy Hitter from BC is the worst okra variety I’ve ever grown. I gave it every opportunity trying 3 different years 21, 22 & 23. I’ll not grow it again. If you ever run across a variety named Baby Bubba buy it. It’s the BEST one I’ve ever grown!
Thanks for sharing. As a new gardener we look to ourselves if things don't go right so it's good to know that may not be the case! I will definitely being keeping an eye out for Baby Bubba.😉
I had a completely different experience with the Heavy Hitter. I got so much okra it was crazy. I let it go to seed and got over 2000 seeds from it that I’ll try growing from this year. I’m in zone 7a.

Thanks for the tip! I'll be keeping an eye out an the farmer's market next time.
you might want to try winter sowing for some of the flowers you did'nt have success with, I had great success with those
I did winter sowing this past year...update coming soon!

How long should I cold stratify the milkweek seeds?!

Thanks for sharing. I'm going to plant it in a different area this year and see what happens!@@keiran.6090
I did the spoon tomato last year on a trellis, it was at least 5 ft tall
It was definitely my soil then! Did you do any pruning of the lower leaves? @@dawns5499

@@easygrowinggarden Yup, we almost always attribute it to a mistake we made but sometimes it’s definitely not. I hope you have better luck, truly.
