      James, please, I'm right across the Tacony Palmyra from you. This smoke? What should we do? Protection wise I mean, this can't be healthy for the food we hope to eat either? 2nd year Gardner, but this seems pretty unprecedented here. Any advice from anyone in all this?

      @@LynnMTHA I'm near capital of Ct and I see some smoke and sure can smell it. I don't see any ash on my veggies. In New Haven, local weather on news shows thick smoke from sky to the ground it seems but I'm on ground level. Those pics were from drone or copter higher up. Looked at the way the air is moving on the map. Curious how it seems to avoid the capital. Only one thing comes to mind. Manipulation. If I find ash I'll use a vacuum to blow it off with shop vac or my hand held. Worth a try. Air quality is bad for those with lung issues so stay inside. If it is just timer burning that's one thing. Any chemicals in the smoke, I don't know.

    Also add watermelon.

    Zinnias and dahlias are the best trap crops for cucumber beetles, in my experience. The flowers are like a billboard for pollinators too. It's easy to knock beetles off the blossoms into a container of slightly soapy water to drown them. Use just enough soap or detergent to break the surface tension of the water.

    This is my third season gardening and my third Rainier Cherry Tree. Each has died. I can’t figure out what I am doing wrong. I tossed 1. 2 of them I am still watering and fertilizing hoping by way of a miracle it will begin to leaf back out but so far, just sticks, the both of them. Just sticks. Not a leaf in sight! My favorite fruit and so very expensive at the grocery. I was so excited. I’m not going to quit so I guess I’ll be purchasing another when the time is right. Great video. Both you and Tuck do such a wonderful job! 💜

    Have you ever tried producing and planting produce from scraps? I've been told nothing will grow, but i put a rotten cucumber in my garden bed last year, and it not inly grew but also produced a ton of produce! I was shocked. I also used the scraps from a cherry tomato i had left over, and it's actually growing.

    Excellent video James. Thank you so much for all these timely tips. I've just started gardening for the 1st time this year and your help will probably save my cucumber crop (and other veggies). I'm having a blast. Best wishes for you and Tuck!

    I love that you give examples of what to plant if you had issues. Takes a lot of guess work out of the process and makes me hopeful this year we will get a harvest. Trying some of those new varieties this year.

    Curious in NZ- never have my peas attacked by birds. Blackbirds do a number on my vege beds generally though. I use the netting like you do. Love your work. Very informative.

    I used a cucumber beetle trap and I have great results in reducing the risk of infection to my plants

    Amazing tips!! I learned a lot today thanks to you and Tuck. I harvested 60 lbs of Lemon Cukes this last season from my vines without knowing about the ripening phase...can't wait to see what next year is like!

    Cukes always frustrated me. I didn't know u don't get a bountiful harvest letting them go longer. Changing my game plan this year! Thanks. Love to Tuck.

    I’m in central Georgia, our growing season is early March through early October, sometimes later! I don’t plant my cucumbers until July 1 - July 15 depending on what space is freed up around that time and what was previously harvested from a given grow location. Then I’m harvesting the cucumbers from Late August/Early September to frost or plant die back.

    James, Thank you for your wonderful and informative videos. We are getting a lot of gardening knowledge from them even though we hope have had veggie gardens for decades.

    Castille soap is cool cuz its a pesticide, a cleaner, and it adds moisture, so you can foliar feed more
