When did you plant these ?
My OCD loves the way you have everything set up.
Blessings
I really love the time and effort of these progressive videos welldone
Thank you very much!
You have an amazing homestead
Blessings
@@HollisNancysHomestead Thank you.
Y’all are working hard, living the life my husband and I would love to have when we’re older. Thank you for blessing the internet with your videos!
Our pleasure!
I love the new homestead I love the new garden you guy have built you guy help me a lot with my four raise garden bed stay safe in god bless
Blessings
I love your videos. You have given me so many ideas for container planting on my deck. Watching from Bowie, Md. Thank you! 😀
You are so welcome!
Thank you for these great educational videos! I have one complaint... I would love to see Nancy follow through and show us how she makes kimchi 🙏🏻. I’m also wondering what the two of you do with the rest of the cabbage? Nancy, you should start your own channel and show us your recipes🙋🏼♀️🤩
Nancy already has several kimchi recipe videos on our channel. Check them out. She is also working on a bunch of new cooking videos now
I think if you want to garden you can't give up you just keep trying till you find your sweet spot especially when you don't know anyone else in your area that gardens. Dont give up,don't give up its nothing like growing your own food. Its gonna be good season and bad season but a harvest is a harvest and it's all a blessing
Perfect advice
WOW, this Cabbage is so beautiful.
It really is!
I love your time-lapse videos.I bless you. God is good all the time.
Thanks so much
I really enjoy and find your seed to harvest videos helpful. Thanks for sharing all your information. Missouri
Our pleasure!
I, hope GOD has BLESS you all with His beautiful weather, because you all do a great job, GOD BLESS you,
These are some awesome Napa, thank you so much for sharing.
Do you just feed with the Bloodmeal.
You are so welcome
I am so glad you are very detail oriented. I am too, and I deeply appreciate it in all you do. In these progression videos, I appreciate the 5 gallon bucket "grow-along", because right now that's what I have. I know it takes good planning, good control, and good record keeping to bring us these comparisons. Just wanted you to know that some of us know this isn't magic, and it's nowhere near as easy and carefree to make these videos as you make it seem. Very well done. High education value. Your family will be benefitting from these videos for many generations, even when new tech comes along. And so will other families. Best to you and yours!
Thank you so much for your kind words. Enjoy your container gardening ❤️
First time I see this variety , beautiful plants. And also those in Containers - awesome size 👍 Nice video as always :) all the best 🍀
Thanks so much 😊
I love watching your process! Respect from Vancouver canada
8:45 Wow, that gorgeous yellow flower! Hibiscus? It's stunning! Extra stunning, as yellow is my favorite color.
Mine too!
Nancy, do you cook napa cabbage the same way you do the green cabbage thank you, God bless Holly and you for all that you are doing
That will make a beautiful kimchi! Looking forward to seeing that video.
Yes it will
Some of the cabbage leaves that you left can be used for fried or boiled.cabbage or for wrapping different things in it and grilling or baking it in the oven it would be so good.and some for a salad as well so beautiful for sure
I appreciate how informative your videos are. This is a beautiful variety of Napa cabbage. I look forward to giving it a try.
You love it! Enjoy
beautiful nappa cabbage! great job. your videos have taught me so much. thanks for helping me and mine increase our self sufficiency.
God has given you guys a green thumb. I wish Nancy would show us How she makes her kimchee❤️❤️
She has several kimchi videos on our channel.
th-cam.com/play/PLjAejPnq636ZLM0Jg_x8LHlsvLzW7xHce.html
Such a pretty harvest. What if anything do you use for pest on your plants ? Thank you.. blessings
I could watch this all day! So quiet, so serene, nothing but steady worthwhile work and no screwing around. Love kimchee, definitely going to put this in my rows this spring. 😊😊😊
You always say hardening off the plants. Please post a video on how this is done effectively. Thanks. Love the videos.
I agree with Nancy, beautiful...Kimchi soon!
Yes, it's our new favorite Kimchi
Another great video. After watching the onion video I called the onion farm in TX and ordered my onion plants for this year. The last couple years it's been hard to find southern onions here in Florida. When I call around they either have the walla walla onions (northern onion) or no onions at all. I didn't realize there was an onion farm to buy from. Thank you for telling us. Looking forward to getting them next month. Looking forward to your videos too. Thanks again.
That is awesome!
You all really have that garden looking some kind of wonderful, everything looks so beautiful and great, you all got it going now, there is no stopping you now, I am so HAPPY for you two, GOD BLESS
Thanks so much
You had me at red napa cabbage. I am crazy for red/purple veggies of every kind. Thank you for helping me learn more about gardening.
Me too. Love purple especially
What beautiful cabbages! 😍
They are purdy 👍
I really love the progression videos that take the viewer through the whole process, and growth cycle of a particular plant. Always educational but never boring cause you always seem to know what you want to teach the viewer, without a script or notes. As per usual, great work filming and editing. A pleasure to watch!
We try to capture the entire process on one video so the first time gardener will know what to expect along the way
I just have to say thank you. I usually don’t follow Southern growers because I’m in zone 5b. But I love your videos on Napa. Last year I tried growing them using Michihili. I never got a head. Lotsa leaves and saved seeds from it bolting. Well I followed your recommendations and bought Rubicon from Johnny. Also Bilko. They sprouted in 2 days. I can’t wait to see the end result
Waiting on my 2nd leaf before I harden them off
Rubicon’s have never let me down. This year I planted some leftover seeds from 5 years ago and had 100% germination 👍
Your videos are so helpful for beginners like me. I'm loving my little garden. I planted some cabbage seeds last week and it's been a joy watching them grow
Wonderful!
Those are really beautiful my friends, couldn't buy better looking veg, anywhere!!
TYFS, Stay Safe and Well 👍👍👍👍👍
Mark and Rosa
Thanks so much
Hollis, when you say, “harden off”, what does that mean? Does it mean setting the seedling outside for a specific time? The cabbage looks SO beautiful! ❣️♥️❣️
I start all my seeds under a 40% shade cloth. After the seedlings form true leaves and are getting big enough to transplant, I gradually introduce them to more direct sun out from under the shade cloth until they can stay our for a full day. This usually takes about 5-7 days. At that point the seedlings are hardened off. They can take full sun all day and the stems are strong enough to resist wind. They are now ready to transplant
Thank you SO much!!
You’re welcome sweetie ❤️
@@HollisNancysHomestead I appreciate that explanation also! Thanks!
Hi Hollis & Nancy, what a beautiful huge cabbage plant!🤗 I have not seen that variety before..red napa cabbage! Another new cabbage to grow in my garden in the spring! Too late here, it was 33 degrees with frost this morning..burrr! Stay blessed and safe! 🦋10/5/20🦋
Thanks so much
Really nice video
Those lettuce surely looks yum yum
They are!
LOVE you too, and pray that GOD KEEP his LIGHT SHINING on you all,
Does Mrs. Nancy do all the editing? If so....you're a pro!! So well put together the inserting of pictures and information. So easy to see, read, and learn. Thank both of you so much!!
Yes, she does all the editing. She does a very good job👍👍👍
My favorite part is sticking through from beginning to end. Thank you. Very well done.
Thank you so much for watching the entire video❤️
Gorgeous!
OMG!!!!!!!. The most beautiful Napa cabbage I have never seen. That is heaven for my eyes. Thank you very much for the video. God bless you guys.
Our pleasure!
Love your videos! All your cabbage looks so great. What do you use to control cabbage worms?
Thuricide BT
@@HollisNancysHomestead Thanks so much!
Ok Hollis, What do you do for bugs? I need some serious help. Aphids are destroying most of my greens.
Thank you for sharing. These Napa cabbages are gorgeous. I tried to grow them, but not as successful as you. Would you please give some tips about how to prevent bugs? Thanks.
Wow! SO BEAUTIFUL!
It really is!
What color does the Hollis version (mild vs. hot) of Kimchi turn out to be? I really like water Kimchi or mild hot Kimchi, and I'm inspired by your videos to grow and make my own kimchi at home. 🙂
I can watch your videos all day long.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks, will do!
Boy does that look good out of my 6 I think I'm gonna get 3. 3 of my went to seed but its my second time trying spring is not the time here in knox tn but fall seems to be my window maybe a little bit closer to fall to start the seeds but I told you I'd find my window lol thanks you guys for all the wisdom.
Blessings
💘 you both.
Oh my my my- *beauuuuuutiiiful!*
Nancy I sure hope you and mama plan to make us a video of making some kimchi.
And these particular cabbages make me wanna make some baechujeon made with this purty purple beauties! I’m so sure it’ll be gorgeous!
Blessings And prayers from Nashville 👋 again
We will! Blessings
Amazing video, thank you so much! This is exactly what I wanted to see. I don’t have an earth garden because I rent so I have always done containers. Previously lived far north and recently moved to central Florida, I’m so glad to see such detailed videos from a fellow Floridian and really look forward to trying to grow my own Napa. Where about in Florida are you located?
Putnam County
@@HollisNancysHomestead oh perfect i’m a bit further south and Polk County, so anything I see you growing I can certainly do as well. Keep up the great container gardening videos! I would love to see a video of Nancy‘s kimchi recipe!
As always a great video,💚 I was wondering if you save your own seeds from the veggies as they start to bolt?🌱🌱🌱
Sometimes we do
So very beautiful another awesome vid God Bless you two!!!
Thank you! You too!
It amazes me you don't have more problems with bugs! Love the video's.
Many factors come into play with bugs....temps, humidity, watering, weed control. Keep the weeds under control and a lot of bug problems go away
They look beautiful. Going to try this in this years fall garden.
Hollis is that a deer stand i see in the background? You should do a info video on that.
Love your channel. Im now gardening because of your channel.
God bless...have a great day.
ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!!
You are so welcome!
Thank you for this beautiful video, I love the way you making them from start to finish , with all that progression ... I Can Only Imagine that it takes x amount of time and lot of work to put this together like that to be completed..I love it and I'm sure everybody else appreciate this a lot just like I do.. I am absolutely impressed and encouraged to plan this Red Nappa cabbage... and I'm going to get this seeds today!! But we are in October, is it still okay to start them now? I also live in the Putnam County Florida. Best regards.
Yes, we are growing them now
Thank you’
You’re welcome 😊
It's good to save the clean outer leaves to put on the top, if using the big canning jars too.
This looks like florida I have the same dirt in southwest florida
Hi guys!
Thank you for the great videos. Good teachers. Love your set-up.
I’m sure you’ve covered it before but what do you do with all your produce?
We give to friends and family and donate to people in need. Blessings
What are the row spacing and the plant spacing?
Looks delicious!
I would love to know where to find this beautiful guitar music at the end of the video ??
I got the merlot variety - cant wait to try!! thanks for your vid.
The Merlot variety is an improved variety with more consistent color
@@HollisNancysHomestead yep it said so on johnny's website. I will probably try it in the fall because i had really bad experience planting cabbages in the spring. Last spring 50% of them bolted. And Johnny's seeds gives you so few seeds per packet and I really dont want to waste them.
I agree, they do very well in the fall. We grew the Merlot last fall and Nancy made a bunch of Kimchi with it.
@@HollisNancysHomestead yuuuuuuuuuum!
HELLO FLORIDA🦋 Nancy can you post the week progression on the videos? the video with the mini mak daikon radish was so nice to see I'm trying those..thanks guys.
Living in Florida, how do you preserve your seeds so they stay fresh and germinate the next time you plant them?? Thanks.
I don't
just subscribed....u the man
Welcome to the family ❤️❤️🐶
@@HollisNancysHomestead Thank You God Bless
Hi Hollis, so, when you grow for foliage plants, you only use blood meal? When do you use bone meals or both? Thank you.
Wow...never saw them before, red cabbage?.. I wonder where can I buy these cabbages seeds..also the big Korean ones and the big Korean radish..they are more firm than the regular long white radish
Yes you can
Love your videos and your vegetables always look perfect - no bug or slug damage . What do you put on them to protect them?
Plant it early and get out before lots of bugs
Do you use any pesticides? The cabbage look so good
I used no pesticides on these. However, if I see insect activity I use Thuricide BT for caterpillars. For chewing bugs other than caterpillars I use Spinosad
@@HollisNancysHomestead thanks! You guys are great, keep up the good work! Been a fan since your bucket potatos, so a few years now!
Do you ever add fertilizer or anything to feed the plants after planting with the fish and blood meal? Later As the plants grow
What kind of weather are these seedlings in during this process? What kind of watering is going on?
Do you have a video on your strawberry box
Does starting seeds outside help prevent fungal issues?
It does help, yes
Do you ever feed the outer leaves of your cabbages to the chickens?
I started some broccoli seeds in a tray, outdoors. My seedlings are very leggy, just 4 inches tall and falling over.
What could I be doing wrong ? I wish there was a way on TH-cam to send you a picture.
What do you use for bug control?
So what do you mean by "hardening off"? It seems these seedlings are outside from cradle to grave already.
I'm building the same seed starting rack like yours . I only have 30% shade cloth will that work. Have a blessed day. Did you fertilize them and if so what did you use
What state are you in?
@@HollisNancysHomestead north east Florida east side of palatka
40% would be best but 30% will work fine
@@HollisNancysHomestead OK thank you for your Response.
👍
Love from Berkeley CA to u&Nancy I’m excited to try Red Dragon Napa cabbage love Napa cabbage it’s not cheep here even in Asian grocery’s . Any suggestions for our costal climate?
What zone are you in?
Hollis & Nancy's Homestead I’m in 10ish. Lol so I’m less than a mile from Sanfransisco
It’s so nice to hear a southern accent I’m from Houston and Henderson
What southern accent??? LOL😂. Try the Merlot variety of Napa Cabbage. It’s an improved Red Napa. I think you will like it
Hi. Beautiful harvest!! How are the chickens doing in laying eggs n roosting? Have you had any small critters in your garden with the fencing? Do y'all just fresh water fish? Peace to you and yours
Chickens are doing great. Laying plenty of eggs each day. They love their roost. We have had no problems with critters in the garden with the fence. We use lots of fresh water fish and saltwater fish. It all works fine👍. Thanks for watching. Ha e a peaceful evening
@@HollisNancysHomestead Do you put fish heads in the buckets too?
I do not. The container soil does not have enough bacteria to break down the fish. It will rot attracting flies and make maggots. I stick with blood meal and liquid fertilizer for containers
I have to use containers due to high lead Pac Choy does well
Great
So what does Nancy make with the red napa?
Kimchi, Kimchi and more Kimchi 😂
That green one might not be a green napa seed that got mixed in! It could be a natural variation, that's how purple cabbage happened in the first place. Let it bolt and try reseading, you may be developing your own variety of cabbage. If that's true, you get to name it whatever you want!
👍
How often do you water seedlings.
I water mine once per day in the morning
I live in northern Canada so planting season isn't till May to August. So just keep the seeds wet or moist.
Please tell me where do you buy your starting cups and trays???
GreenhouseMegastore.com
@@HollisNancysHomestead THANK YOU !!. LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!!
I am going to try one last time. It’s 2 July and nights are in the 60’s. Days up to 80. I can NOT stop my napa from bolting. What am I doing wrong. I use fish emulsion now instead of dropping a fish into the whole like before. Even the rubicon’s bolted. Bilka abd Michihili alll of them. As well as my Korean Radish. The only upside is that I can save seeds. Please help me out
Hollis, did you guys ever make a video on how to make the kimchi?
Nancy has several videos on our channel on how to make Kimchi
Hollis & Nancy's Homestead thank you..
Cabbage root maggots? Any suggestions?
How do keep pests away i never see any plants covered for pests??? Thanks
Ms Nancy I would love to get your kimchi recipe.
I have link to playlist of Fusion foods on top of comments which has kimchi in it. Enjoy
Can you start cabbage seeds in October?
Yes in my zone 9A
Hollis & Nancy's Homestead I’m in Sounth Arkansas. Not sure of the zone.
What is the lime for?
I was just going to say give the chickens the leaves, you need some pigs to give the scraps and peelings t
Interesting, must be a cross between Japanese Giant Red mustard, only way it could have gotten that red color
:-)
I see the fence but how do you keep rodents out of the garden
