    When the potato plants start dying they are made and the potatoes are ready to dig.

    You could add some chives or herbs with the egg and the same with the potato to give flavour - also what a lovely find all that food that you grew yourself and the garden is good with weeds sometimes because they add water to the food plants even though you don't realise - it is really rewarding growing food - yum

  • @caroljane75
    @caroljane75 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    My garden did better this year as opposed to last year. Heat caused some issues. I had same problem with my potatoes last year. Not a high yield and small. I put bone meal and compost and egg shells in those beds. Haven’t harvested yet. My plants are still green. I hope it helped. I think you’ve got the same problem. Try adding egg shells to where you are going to plant for next year. Growing your own food is so much more satisfying. I’ve got green beans, beets, and tomatoes I turned into sauce with gardening peppers and onion to can today. My carrots this year are great. First time I’ve grown pumpkins that I could harvest! Heat killed my zucchini and watermelon plants and severally stressed the cucumber plants. Made 10 jars of pickles and ate fresh cucumbers. Got a little from them. Good luck! So sad they cut those trees down. ❤️🧡💙💚🩷🦋🦋🦋

    Oh my gosh the butternut squash!!!! How exciting for sure. I love watching digging up potatoes. And no matter how little the haul it' going to be yummy. Hash browns and eggs yummm. Well you got some amazing going on in there. I love the orchard. I love everything. If you ever get a chance James pirgioni is a small space gardener I think on 1/4 acre you might enjoy watching him a bit. He grows everything including fruit trees and just has lots and lots of good tips. He does small containers and has evolved to different beds but if you look at his older stuff he used every square inch of space like you are and he has worked out bumps. So you might enjoy. The hashbrowns and eggs and tomatos..look so good. hugs

I have potatoes growing in grow bags with plants still intact, so I'll leave them to grow more! I have to grow in raised beds or pots per rules of our mobile home park, and im just seeing what I can't kill! We still have about 2 months left so I'm leaving most things alone! Hopefully to grow something ! The weeds and crabgrass grow the best! Lmao! Hopefully we don't have to rely on it for all our food or we shall surely starve too! Happy gardening Frugal mommy!

    In Germany the farmers said we had too much rain 🌧️ in spring so the they'll harvest only about a third of apples 🍏 this year compared to last year. So the prices will rise 😢.
