I love chimarmalade also
chirmarmalade 😦
Chamomile marmalade I guess.
Drink some up with some lemonaid. mmm
😂
He said that and for a second I thought to myself, "Is it possible that I have been saying this wrong my whole life!?!" LOL Then I rewinded the video to look at the plant thinking that maybe it was not a Chamomile plant after all and in fact something else...Turns out no, he just straight up made a new word. 😆
As a Mexican, for all of you who have radishes, when we have tacos we usually have some radishes on the side, whole or sliced, that we take bites of as we are eating. It’s a nice, fresh, spicy, refreshing way to cut back on the greasiness or heaviness of the food.
I also like to slice them up and let them sit in lime juice and salt and have them along our carne asada meals too! Drinking the remaining pinkish lime juice at the end is also a nice treat. Though may not be for everyone 😂
Hope my two cents help.
Absolutely! I forgot to mention eating them with tacos, that is where it makes most sense to me but I never remember to do it for myself at home.
I was waiting for this comment! YES! Radishes are amazing soaked in lots of lime juice and topped with sea salt!!! I like them swimming in lime juice! So fresh and yummy! You can throw some Tajin lime fruit seasoning to take it up a notch! Making my mouth water haha!
Sounds yummy! I just planted radishes yesterday.
Oh man, that sounds pretty awesome! Still working on expanding my garden, so I don't have any radishes going at the moment, but you just gave me a great reason to find the space.
It helped make me hungry is what it did
If you guys really think I don't know how to pronounce chamomile, IDK what to tell you...😂
Those who don't know that you know how to pronounce chamomile probably think your name is Eric!
I've never heard it pronounced that way! It was awesome, I'm gonna say it like that from now on 😂😂😂
Loved it 😅... We all know you're just messing around.. lol New viewers need to watch your videos more..
@@slyborglI did too. Now let me listen again and learn how to pronounce it as such. 😊
You gave me a laugh I very much needed! 👍❤️
crop #1 reminded me of a story. when I was a kiddle in 2nd grade we all had to grow something in a little pot of dirt and everyone did little flowers and whatnot but I did corn. all these little pots of flowers and there's my 3 foot high corn stalk growing out of a milk jug. I only got tiny little ears of corn but it was still funny.
I was in 3rd grade and my little milk carton plant died so I got a seed off the tray under my mom's couch..I was so happy it was growing but when I showed my mom she looked concerned And and ask me where I got it.And I said under the couch and she killed it...3rd grade ganja farmer 😂
I've presown my carrots in eggboxes with holes poked. Once they sprouted indoors (way quicker), you bury the whole box and it rots down in the soil. That way the roots stay intact 👍 thx for the video
that's a great idea!
I'm trying the tray method this year. I also pre-germinated the seeds in a dark cupboard before planting into the tray.
Not sure if you can link videos in comments but if it works it'll be here --> th-cam.com/video/T-zqzKSa_xg/w-d-xo.html
That's genius
10:15 😂😂 “think he got canceled or something” he's so unserious I love his character
Fun fact: most pole beans (phaseolus vulgaris) twine to the right, while runner beans usually (phaseolus coccinus) twine to the left!
Just curious, is this reversed in the southern hemisphere?
That IS a fun fact
Whoa! Cool to know!
My local garden centre has a neat trick with carrots, paper tape. The seeds are already evenly spaced, stuck to the paper tape. The paper dissolves in the earth and your carrots are perfectly spaced.
We have the same with beet seed. So handy!
That's been out for years.
I'm literally listening to this while transplanting cucumbers. Just gotta do what I can not to disturb the roots!
You have to do what you do when you have to fight your environment for sure!
I transplant cucumbers all the time without any problems.
They'll be fine. Cucumbers are pretty hardy.
Yeah, most of these they've literally made videos in the past about how to transplant.
They must be running short on video ideas lol
I’ve seen folks start them in spent toilet paper rolls or paper towel rolls cut in half, that can be planted directly in the ground without the risk of root disturbance. Hope this helps.
OMG. CH-I-MOMMA-LAY. Your killin' me😂
😂😂😂 I'm dying here! 🤪
If you want to give your beans a for sure sprout and head start. Put them inside of a damp paper towel inside of a ziplock to observe them until they sprout roots. Once they do, plant them directly like normal and enjoy not having to worry about failures to germinate.
Don’t ever pronounce Chamomile like that again lol
I thought he invented a new crop 😂
That was so cringe
@@tjdupreyu r cringe
It’s an inside joke
@@tjduprey my mom is cringe
My last frost date is in May, then in July we get 110°. I have no choice but to transplant almost everything! Must be nice to live in a place where you can direct so so many things!
Not their fault you live on the frigging moon!! 😂😂😂 Jk
@@RealBradMiller so true so true! Southern California is a beautiful place. I live in a wretched desert where it either snows or you have blistering heat. Almost no in between lol
They always have good information!
@@meljordan220it's the same here in southern Idaho.
@meljordan220 Shade cloth is a huge game changer for my cukes, tomatoes, peppers, etc. I get the 40% with grommets online and hang them all over the place. I live in the high plains and the sun is intense.
I may go to direct sowing cukes this year and maybe have a backup. It just seems we always get a late hail storm in May, then the cukes just stay stunted for a month.
Same here, I'm at 58 N in Europe... ;-) I have to transplant tomatoes, cucumbers, (water)melons, bumpkins etc. But beans, peas, carrots, beets and radishes go always directly into the ground. However, beets and radishes can be well transplanted - learned that trick from Charles Dowding videos and that works well: multiple (3-5) seeds in a cell and transplant them after 2 true leaves as a bunch.
I have a couple of crops that I do both ways: direct sow and indoor starts. Direct sow is better but when all the emerging seedlings are eaten by sow bugs or they never emerge at all I at least have a backup. 💚
Yeah I don't want to kill the humongous amount of isopods I have so I'll probably do both as well.
YES! I have to transplant everything, so they are big enough for the pill (sow) bugs not to eat them straight off. I use decomposable pots that you just plant.
same! I always do both just incase the insect pressure is ferocious - and also for succession planting.
I start watermelon inside, but that's because I have a fairly short growing season, it's not safe to transplant melons and cucumber out until mid-June/early July, and we can get cold spells enough to kill them as early as mid-September. I start more than I need, and accept a certain level of loss at each stage, but I'd never get to harvest if I waited that long to start the seeds. Of course, I'm in zone 5a in Canada and we got about a foot of snow a week and a half ago :)
Being from southern Minnesota, my mom and I used to use biodegradable planter pots. This is especially great for starting plants with taproots indoors for cold climates since you can stick the whole thing in the ground once you plant it outside 👍
Radishes in kim chi. I like them so much, some times, I just make it with radish only. Really a blend of rootcrops in a home fermented kimchi is such a tasty condiment and I definitely find it more versatile than regular kimchi (which I will just eat of out a jar or with rice. Some seasons I like them as a garden snack, but really, its all about the ferment life.
That's a little different but I can see it being really good
Kim chi radishes are amazing 🤜 🤛
i have some chymomlaya growing too eric
I saw this spelling and read it as "Chlamydia" in my head. 🤣🤣
😂
xD you troll.
TIP: 3 Sisters - mound method
Position a bamboo stake in the middle of each mound.
Direct sow four corn kernels around the central mound stake.
When 2" height direct sow your pole beans. Train vine around the group of four corn plants with the security of the central bamboo stake.
Direct sow your squash of choice.
I do something similar with scarlet runner beans.
I plant tall sunflowers (and support them if necessary against the granary) them sow the scarlet runners at the bottom.
The beans climb and wrap around the sunflower stalks. The red flowers look stunning too!

LOL This year I started and transplanted English peas, field corn, Danvers carrots and beets for the first time. My peas did wonderful. They started indoors when I still had one last hard freeze. I moved them gently. They produced! Now my area is starting to get temps too hot for them so I'm letting them go to seed and dry for next year's crop. The carrots and beets are doing very well, much better than my direct sow attempts. Corn. I transplanted it close to the west side of the house to shade the house and give my pole beans a pole. The wind didn't flatten them, but the rain did. Twice. The wind took out the top of my Empress tree so I need to clean up the yard and straighten the corn. Again. Probably need to find any sprouting beans and squash to return them to where they need to be. I direct sowed some corn in my little garden and it is doing great. I should add another row of corn to pollinate. Seeds planted with transplants seem to grow faster.
For the shelling peas, you can stew it down in some coconut milk and some fresh herbs. That what we do in Trinidad and Tobago.
Chard is really good in coconut milk as well with a squeeze of lemon juice added.
Sounds delicious, thank you. Which herbs do you like to use?
The pro move for radishes-raw, dipped in soft (but not melted) butter and topped with some crunchy sea salt.
So basically just eat some butter and salt, make anything taste good 😅
@@arcan762 I know I know. Too easy, right? But in the case of raw radishes, as the kids say, "It just hits different!"
Pickled radishes are really good. Played around with lacto-fermentation last year and it is so easy - basically just the right ratio of water:salt, easy peasy probiotic gut health! 🌱🥒👌
omg they're literally my favorite pickle but boy do they stinks
Also the probiotics in the soil SBO soil based organisms, stay in organic locally grown foods and are some of the strongest probiotics for your gut! So added fermentation probably makes it a super food!
I started fermenting last year too. My favortie is pickled spicy peppers. I'll have to try radishes this year. If i have any left after my kids get to them 😅
Thanks Kevin for the tips on growing sunflowers 🌻 Happy gardening to all. Much love from Trinidad 🇹🇹
Trick for starting seeds with delicate roots: make tiny paper pots. Then just soak and pull the bottom off. And pop it into the ground. The sides will compost themselves and you didn't have to mess with roots! I do this every year with my cucuzza squash! ❤ happy planting!
If you don't like red radishes, try Daikon. I pickle mine like they do at Japanese and Korean places and its become a staple at my place
Love your vids!! Zoiks!! Your eyes were SCARY for the first second (or two), during the vid. Have learned so much from your vids!! Thanks!!
I have successfully started giant sunflowers in containers (in greenhouse) and transplanted outdoors when weather was warm enough.
Secret is to use a 2L bottle. Slice the top off horizontally and then slice the entire thing vertically so you have two long halves. Drill drainage holes in the bottom and then put it back together with tape.
The long length means taproot has enough room to get very long and you can easily remove the container when time is right to plant it into a deep hole outside, have had many 12foot+ sunflowers this way.
In my climate we have to start peas in greenhouse too, I use toilet paper tubes but you can use any paper/wood pulp pots to avoid disrupting roots when they're ready to be planted outside.
Great gardening tips! I love the bean trellis tips! Thank you 🌿
Thanks to you, we have a relatively good harvest of salad greens.
I gave up on peas this year.
some cucumber instead
Tentacles are growing
I'm doing it with a stick for now.
The cucumber A-frame is gorgeous and nice.🙂
Thanks for all your education. My 1st year on my homestead in Az.
Looking forward to my own grown food.
Agreed on cukes. Much easier and a healthier cuke plant to simply sow seed in the garden. Good video. Thank you for the practical gardening advice.
Oh, nice, chamomile!
"Chimomolay"
Exqueeze me?
Baking powder?
The video I needed! Learned about peas the hard way. Thanks for the tips, including carrots in sand and peas as perennials. Excellent video.
I transplant peas, carrots, radishes with great success.
Same! They do fine it's just a diminished return if you can direct seed instead!
@@jacquesinthegarden I plant in air pruning pots and the roots are so vigorous they take no time to adjust after transplanting.
I've been transplanting peas. 🤣
I sure if you’re good at transplanting you will
Same here
We moved to a very wet region here in NZ (9b climate) and direct sowing corn just didn't work. The weather takes way too long to warm up and the seeds get dug up and eaten by critters before anything happens. What I did this season is to sow in toilet paper rolls, kept them warm using a heat mat inside the green house and then transplanted them with the rolls when they were big enough. I still had to check up on them every day as the critters kept digging them out so I just kept on putting them back in. This is the first year I had success with corn in this location. We get strong winds and only the little plants blew over. I would say it may be a great idea to experiment with various ways of doing things until something works for you. Maybe I can do a trial next season with direct sowing and covering them up in greenhouse plastic, securing the edges against critters and see if this works well enough. Trial and error and always learning!
Where in NZ are you? Because although I don't live there now, I started gardening in South Canterbury as a child and successfully grew 11 corn plants in a very sunny part of our old property with excellent success. Maybe the recent and constant flooding has altered things slightly, but you have to put them in a super sunny location with lots of light. I remember my family needing to clean their glasses after eating my corn😂 it was so satisfying as a kid growing food for my parents and brothers that was ridiculously pricey in the supermarket. It's why I still grow vegetables well into my thirties now in Europe!
I gather you are south island? I am in Victoria on that 'bigger island'. It is still a fairly short season over here, our last frost date is about 15 November where I am. I have not had an issue with corn seedlings.
We grew sheelling peas when I was younger. We ate them and canned them for winter. They are good right out of the shell:)
Good list! Appreciate this. Some things never like being transplanted.
Hey Eric, I love Chimamaley too
Green arrow shelling peas are the best! LOVE them! 🫛
Pro tip, plant them somewhere that you can pull up a lawn chair so you can have a relaxing snack time in the garden 😁👍
Totally enjoyed viewing... will be shared with others.
Beautiful and creative from gardening with Kirk
Thank you, Kevin, Jacques. 😊
awww everything looks so good guys!!! beautifulllll!!!
I'm planting pole beans for the first time this year. I didn't know they wrapped like that. Thanks for the info on that, Jacques!🤗
New subscriber! Excellent lessons quick and too the point! I'm new to growing vegetables even though I've grown tomatoes and peppers for many years. Having moved from city to country several years ago, I am eager to learn more so we can supplement what we get from the grocery store.
By the way, I only recently discovered that roasted radishes are good. Now I like to include radish, to my sheet pan of oven roasted vegetables. Yum.
This came just in time - saved my life here :D
I’ve been carnivore (beef butter bacon & eggs) for a year then ketovore adding whole veg for a year & at age 54 I’m down 65 lbs and holding! I’m starting my own organic garden this year, and keeping quail for eggs and meat in 2024, and I highly recommend it. Much love!❤
Could you guys do a shade tolerant video? Vegetables, flowers, anything! ☺️
The bird chirping in the background has me looking around my house baffled. Thank you pause button! Love the content, happy spring!!
Ya! I just bought seeds for spring outdoor planting. I got Rainbow blend carrots, 5 blend beets, (bull’s blood, subeto, boldor, albino, chioggia), patio pride peas, and pick a bushel cucumbers.
Technically, today is the day to plant them, but in two weeks, I’m going on a two weeks vacation, so I’m waiting for afterward in the middle of May.
I soak sunflowers for a few hours two days germination on last years seeds. On heat mat. Great tip on the mammoth. The further apart the bigger the bloom as well.
I always soak then start organic sugar snap peas germinating on a damp paper towel. Then I start the seedlings in organic seed starting mix in seedling trays. I grow those seedlings until they are about 4 inches tall, then I transplant them into the garden in early spring in containers. I've always had a great organic sugar snap pea harvest growing them that way. In 7A, Washington, DC.
Something that got me into radishes was the cooking aspect that I never even considered. To me radishes were a green salad garnish or sometimes a snack with salt. But, you can cook the greens and the roots... and the seeds are edible as well (which are good). I started stir-frying the greens with sliced radishes a few years ago.... never looked back. So good with rice! The best part, Radishes are so easy to grow as well. Can have multiple crops, grow them under just about any other plant. I fill in my snap pea bed with radishes.... and cilantro. Just let them go do their thing.
The tip about taking the seeds from the cukes at the end of the vine/life and using them to grow a new succession... and so on... WOW!
Thank you for the tips! I just started my own vegetable garden channel!
Doubling down on the chamomile. Respect. ✊🏻
Thank you, great. Info
Love the radish recommendations! I’m still trying to find ways to eat them
Just planted my Green Arrow shelling peas today!
Great tips and I fully agree, with the exception of your neighbors up north ;)
Here in Canada (i'm in Toronto) if we direct sowed any of these plants we wouldn't be getting the harvests we desire. In order to adhere a bit to your point of not disturbing the seeds I utilize compostable pots to do the transplants, this way you don't get as much of a transplant shock.
Fully agree with the corn point, most of mine will have the problem of tilting like Jacques mentions.
Lol im a crazy transplanter. I am transplanting corn this year because we have slugs so bad direct sowing is near impossible. I made sure to up pot it as soon as it sprouted and then ill put it in ground next week. Also started my sunflowers inside because we have birds that would snatch them up another one that i up pot as soon as it emerges. I did that last year as well and all 4 i transplanted grew over 12 ft tall! I started my peas inside too i planned on using the rain gutter method but didnt get it set up in time so just used plug they are doing great so far. I had a few losses but part of that was the cats dug them up 3 times 😢. I ended up filling in empty spots sowing direct but those didnt do as well as the transplants. I direct sowed my carrots but so far i havent had any germinate. I am transplanting my beans this year. My best year with beans was from bonnie plants starts that i seperated and planted at home a few years back. I did them in plug cells but i made a note that next year im going to use larger pots and multi sow and seperate to put in the garden. Im not doing a wildflower mix but i did let my calendula from last year reseed outside so i didnt have to start any myself indoors and i just dig up the extras and move them to other areas in the garden. I direct sowed my radishes never had good luck with them but they are doing great this year. I transplant all of my melons cucumbers and squash again because of pest pressure ive had great success with it but i do believe it would do much better if i could plant them direct. Im starting to get into growing numbers that are going to be very difficult to start indoors so probably next year ill have to find a way to start more in ground.
Jaques we love radishes diced in a Mexican dish called pozole or on tacos, n on salads are awesome. Even diced in a pico de Gallo.
I always direct sow field (cow) peas and okra here in North Florida
Radish sprouts are excellent during the warm months
Cha Mom Lé 😂😂😂 Kevin knows humor actually opens the mind and prepares it for learning. And now I will forever call Chamomile -Cha Mom Lé! lol I prefer direct sewing as much as possible and tropicals that can survive under some neglect.
Chimommalay teeee is great too
This year I decided to explore winter sowing, so I went all-in and winter sowed just about everything. Next year I'll dial it back a bit based on how this year's plants turn out. However, this year I'll be transplanting my sugar snap peas and some carrots, and I might be transplanting a cucumber if any of the ones I sowed decide to actually germinate at some point. They haven't yet, so I'm starting to think that I might be direct sowing them later. I knew that carrots usually aren't good for transplanting, but I decided to try filling my winter sowing jugs with empty paper towel rolls turned up on their ends, and I planted one carrot seed into each tube (I did the same with some parsnips). Being packed together inside the jug has kept the tubes intact up to this point, and I'm hoping that when I cut the jug open I'll be able to carefully peel a tube away from the rest without disturbing the core of soil inside which holds the carrot, and just plant the whole tube in the ground. The cardboard will break down quickly after that, if it manages to stay intact long enough for me to accomplish the planting. It's an experiment, and I'm looking forward to seeing if it'll actually work.
All good tips, thank you. Unfortunately for some of us that live in colder climates, like where I’m at Zone 7 PA I feel that transplanting is necessary, specially if you don’t have a huge garden and need to plant your cold crops to harvest , then transplant summer crops in it’s place.
Also because we tend yo go from chilly weather to hot so fast.
One day when kids are all grown up I’m moving somewhere with warmer climate to have a big garden, some more chickens, maybe ducks, that my dream anyway
I love this channel so much and just like get to know so many knowledge about growing as I just started growing half a year ago There are so many interesting things to learn from you What a wonderful channel😀👍👍
You can use a fingernail file or regular file to scratch the outside of the seed also to help with faster germination. This works well for smaller seeds that you can't snip the end off of with scissors like lupine, sweet pea, etc that have a hard shell.
I always buy a couple to transplant because they already alive and I can move them to adjust then I plant seeds with them so hopefully they just grow with each other instead of everything dying

Just finished planting watermelon and there’s a new banger
I love to eat quorne in the summer but haven’t ever grown it yet. Sonneflaours are very pretty too. ….
Great video! Would love to see more on this topic. Would you say zuchinni , like the cucumber world be better to sew directly or no difference?
my cucumber plants regularly hit over 10 ft long, last year i got about 5 dozen cucumbers off of 4 plants. i plant them all in 25 gallon pots though, and plant them with some flowers or a couple bean plants
Last spring I started sunflowers in seed starters cuz I didn't know about transplanting. I lost all but 4 stalks. This year I've had to thin the bird sown seeds twice, and will have to thing more as the season wears on and some get diseases and pests
If you have the space and climate - direct sow is always the best. I like using movable hotboxes to help me achieve this, unfortunately we are still getting below 40 at night, which makes no one happy. I also have recently got into radishes, they add a nice spice to veggie dishes.
I'd forgotten how you pronounced Chammomile. I LOVE IT.
I have to transplant alot of the stuff you said because I am zone 2b. Winter is Oct until apr or may so June to Sept is only months we got we sometimes like this year get may as well... I have had success with corn and cucumbers and always direct sow peas and beans
charlemaigne is pretty cool
Don't know what to do with little carrots when you thin them out? Just wash them and pan-fry with a little butter or oil, add some spices and it makes a super tasty snack or an addition to your salad. Love it!
I generally direct sow all of these, with the exception of watermelon. I live where it's a little cooler out than they would like during the first few weeks after the last frost, and it pays to get them going so that they can be ready for the couple of months it gets to the temperatures they like. I might run a little experiment this year and try a direct sow with some soil warming techniques along with transplants and see which one outperforms. I'm doing the same with marigolds and zinnias too.
I didn't realize sunflowers had a tap root last summer. I took my sunflower from the spot I directed sowed because I had someone building a covered area on half my deck last year. I wondered why my mammoth sunflower didn't grow as tall as the previous year. Now it make sense. The sunflowers survived the temporary home until I planted back in the ground. I'm glad to now know this. I'm always learning each year
I start my carrots(in clam shells), cucumbers & bush & runner beans and have been very successful not so much when I direct sewed.
I love beans. I would really love to see and episode on Asian Yard Long, the new favorite of my wife and I new favorites!
Always happy to learn that something is better off direct sown transplanting is such a disadvantage when it comes to time, effort, and resources and is generally involves using things with batteries or plugs or plastic which is not great for the environment. Surprised to not see squash on the list
Jacque, try sliced radishes in a cold potato salad. Gives it a bit of zing.
I used to direct sow my beans and cucumbers but had to do it like 4 times before I got enough plants to survive the pill bugs and slugs. I now transplant them and use 1/4 of the seeds and get them earlier because I didnt waste 6 weeks re-planting the ones that were chomped to death.
Jacque,
You should try fresh sliced radish as a condiment on carne asada tacos with lime and cilantro.
They’re also great sliced in ramen along with other veggies just throw them in with the noodles.
i never direct sow my corn can never get them 2 sprout so i transplant them never had a problem
I don't like radishes except it's exciting for kids to grow and harvest before they lose interest. My preference on radishes is the immature seed pods in a stir fry...yum
Kale pods are good too!
Father Flowereone, I am honored and grateful that you have invited me to your planting...day.... on the day of your plant's planting. And I hope your first flower, be a masculine flower. I pledge my ever-ending loyalty.
- Luca Brassica
Good video guys 👊🏻🌻👊🏻
I wish the weather in my area could let me direct sow alot of these...
Most of these need to be transplanted where I am
I love gardening!
Your way of pronouncing chamomile is the only way I say it now I love it
Too cool here in Nanaimo BC Canada to grow cucumbers in the garden right now.
Sadly pill bugs or rollie pollies eat my seedlings as they came up so started most of these indoors and putting put bigger plants. Also dropping some more seeds and crossing me finger
Have you figured anything out to get rid of them? I know they eat wood and roots, and stink bug eggs, and seeds, but I have issues with them eating my seeds/seedlings as well.
