Hello from Coastal Georgia Zone 8B. I’ve been watching you two for several years, and I just love the way you two teach, using progression videos from seed to harvest. God bless you both for all that you do for others who are in need. I love seeing you two holding hands and laughing out loud. Be well and stay safe!
You are dearly loved and so appreciated here in Hawaii. Thank you for blessing the world with your wonderful gifts. Thank you for sharing. You really helped me figure out what my problem was with growing squash. So thankful to the Lord for you both.
I have never ever heard about putting FISH in the hole prior to planting, BUT I am going to try this method this year!!! I really enjoy your videos, you make a beginner like me feel less kluxy in the garden!!! God Blessings upon Ya'll!!
Thanks for the knowledge. May you all continue to be a blessing to me and others. I’m in South Florida and love to find growers in our region. Our weather is really different from all others. Is there any ways or plants that deter raccoons to keep them out of the garden???I’m still learning with my squash so far only male flowers and some white spots. So I’ll be applying what you said in this video. Thanks Blessings
I am disabled and have to use a scooter and will have to put the buckets on boards so they will be up off the ground a little. Hoping to plant all our garden that way, except for corn and watermelons that my husband is doing.
Once again I can't express enough just how much I appreciate the time and effort that you put into making these videos. They are probably the best tutorials about gardening I've found on TH-cam. I know you've mentioned in the past how time-consuming it is to have to piece these time clips together, but I hope you please keep doing it exactly as you have been, if at all possible, please. I'm a struggling gardener who is now retired and should have learned a lot more by now, but I'm grateful that I'm learning so much from these videos. There is no way I could ever say thank you enough. God Bless you....
Hi Hollis I like the notebook you keep you should make a book of it and sell it to us so we can go to it each year for reference. Fingers crossed 🤞 thanks 😎👨🏻🌾👨🍳
You two impress me with your knowledge, your hard work, and your generosity. I really believe the Lord is pleased with the servants heart you both have. You are getting close to 500k subscribers so I can see I’m not alone in my opinion. God bless you both with strength and wellness to continue your journey. Thank you both for taking us along.
If only people treated each other how they treat their plants this world will be 100% better. I love watching and learning all this great information. Thank you for all you do.
Native Floridian here growing south of you in west central Florida and love your videos. It took me a long time to figure squash out...still learning. Today I learned about lime in the hole for repelling critters! This fall I planted 40 beautiful tomato plants (that I had patiently grown from seed) each one set on a raw egg (I have chickens) placed in each hole and wouldnt you know the next morning a racoon came in and ripped out every single one of my tomatoes to get at those eggs! I hope he had a heck of a belly ache! My tomatoes survived though. Thanks for the informative video, once again. We need more good FL growing videos because though its all I know its very different from everywhere else.
It is such a blessing to be able to watch Nancy and Hollis with little Bingbing tagging along getting some vegetables from the Earth. Hollis and Nancy always make you feel that God loves you as they garden. Love you yall... Continue to be blessed.
I just love these videos! Thank you so much for the time you guys put in to recording and posting videos to teach people like me that it can be done and to just do it. You two are awesome and very inspirational. God bless you!
If you're talking about the vine borer....research their breeding season in your location and I recommend BT for prevention. Bacteria injection starves the larvae. I have them bad in North texas through July. After independence day....I'm golden
@@ritalewis9024 fill a sprayer with dawn soap & water. 1tbsp per gallon. When you water in the morning, you will see them run. You must spray the bug & not the plant only although it won’t hurt the plant. Look on the back of the leaves for babies & eggs. Spray the babies & either squish the eggs or break off that part of the leaf. When you first see the “sawdust” on the main stem take an exacto knife & make a slice just above where you see the hole then I take a metal shish k bob skewer & dig out the larva from the squash borer. Cover the scar up with a mound of miracle grow potting soil & keep watered. This is the only real issues we gave In Texas with squash. Good luck!
Thanks for the tutorial, notes, and sketch. They really help. I am learning so much from you guys. I have a mast cell disease, a connective tissue disorder, and three autoimmune disorders. I naturally love to garden and must learn the best ways to garden the easy way and the natural way due to my health conditions. God is using your videos to teach me and so many how to grow our own healthy food. I used to be a commercial farmer-a completely different animal, even though I grew squash, melons, tomatoes, and peppers. It’s a different world than backyard, natural gardening. Back then I loved showing up at the local senior center with free vegetables. I hope to be able to grow and share once again. I’m grateful for all you do! You truly inspire others to do good things.☺️✝️🙌
Awesome job you two 🥳. Hollis thank you for the pictures and step by step instructions (totally my style of learning). Thank you Nancy for the amazing editing you do to tie each phase of the growing process in captivating clarity. Starting my first garden with my kiddos this year because of your inspiration. Thank you both so much. I would love to see a freezer video showing how you do your freezer food storage 🥰
I took botany in college when I was studying to be a teacher. Learned all about plant parts, etc. It was my all time fav science class. At the time, my dad had 36 acres of gardens and orchard in Brunswick Co., VA. He got great enjoyment from watching things grow and selling his produce to people going to Lake Gaston.
I’ll be planting my squash and zucchini in containers. I’m going to follow everything you do minus the fish. I’ll have to hand pollinate them as well. Your videos are always so educational! Love you guys!
I just love y’all full of information and joy! One question though, how do you control the vine bore’s?! I have the worst time with them except last year, I planted early. The first sign of them where I live in SC is June
I read an article that said the crooked neck squash is more resistnat to those buggers. My squash was decimated by the buggers last year and i checked them daily to pick off any intruders. I think I harvested only two squash.
We tried to grow our squash in containers this year. Well, we mixed up the soil like Hollis showed, planted the seeds & kept an eye out for pests. We have large, beautiful plants that are loaded with squash. The only problem is that at maturity, they only 2 to 3 inches long! I don’t know what the problem is but if anybody knows, I’d welcome your info.
Love your videos and have been watching when you were living up north. I live near you, close to Gainesville and I have a question that's not related to gardening. I was wondering what what camera and sound system you use to record your videos. They always seem so clear even when outside.
I learn more from your videos than any other TH-cam channel. Also, I love your music in-between segments. You and Nancy are guiding lights in many ways. THANK YOU!
Hi Hollis, Miss Nancy and Binbin. I am attempting to grow lemon squash to see if I succeed. I try to grow in the past squash and always died on me. Heard that this is easier to grow. Love your homestead is beautiful.
Thank you for reminding me of just how big these get at maturity. I never seem to give them enough room in the beginning. The seedlings are just so small ☺️
That is such a wonderful harvest. We also grow our veggies to share. I love that we can share and you both must love it as well. God bless you both, keep up the good work.
Thank you for your videos. I usually plant one zucchini and one yellow squash on either end of my raised bed. That gives enough squash for me, friends neighbors and my senior exercise class! I use some of the male flowers in quesadillas with onions and cheese. I love growing and giving! Your videos have helped me become a better gardener. God bless you both for the work you do! Love seeing BingBing, too! 🌱🥰🙏🐶 👨🏼🌾👨🏼🌾💕
I love your videos sir, being in North Texas, its rough to grow stuff here.. or maybe I just fail every year. Also, I don't have a real yard, so basically growing in containers.
But our Florida sand is full of sea shells bits and such. which is pure calcium. Usually it is the PH that causes the poor uptake of calcium because we got lots! MHO
Love your property and set up. Even with less space back in VA you all did things top notch. Your videos are great quality and the content is very helpful. Beautiful squash harvest!
Y’all are truly a blessing from God! As a worship leader in our church, I learned early on in the ministry God called me to to always give Him the glory and honor. I’m a native born Texas boy and I wish now, after watching your videos, that I lived closer. To God be all the glory all the time! Time for me to transplant my little batch of squash tomorrow.
Hi, if I only have molasses containers to plant in, do I still put the lime in it? I use potting soil & mushroom compost but should I add lime to that? And how do u keep it so weed free?
I grew a 1100 lb pumpkin in the Pacific Northwest, but first year in the Southeast and plan to grow some winter squash with similar sandy soil. Appreciate the videos.
I tell you truthfully; it may be more blessed to give than to receive, but when you demand that the needy give in order to receive, you bring a curse upon yourself. For you have born false witness against them saying; you are are not needy, you are lying.
Thanks for your kindness and your ability to have patience to explain to us exactly what you do and then also show us. But I like to thank you most for the way you know how to share with the needy and the family and the neighbors let's not forget those. God bless you all and make the Lord give you plenty of health and plenty of harvest.
Sure wish I'd found yall long before I moved from NWF to the red clay gumbo in Texas lol. Managed to get sandy Fl soil amended for horse grasses but having started gardening we have a whole different issue so going to try growing some vegies in containers too. Love yalls enthusiasm sharing yalls tips & tricks . I thank you both
I like to pick squash when they have the knots on the skin--that way I know the seeds inside are big..I fry them this way and yummy those seeds are so good. God bless.
I'm always amazed and impressed at the beauty and abundance of your harvests. I pray that my gardening skills reach your levels. Your produce always so big. I may need to start using fish heads. Do you think they would work in raised garden beds and container gardens?
I have learned and enjoyed watching you and Ms Nancy in your garden. I planted summer squash last yr and have no success. Being in Florida, I will sure follow your advice in growing them. Thank you and God Bless!
Thank you Hollis, I grew it last year just one plant for me and my parents and we got more squash than we could even eat. Love summer squash, I do have one question for you? Do you recommend growing potatoes in buckets and what size? I only Jane two raised beds and I use it mainly for my cabbage and lettuce and onions and things like that. What are your thoughts on then? I saw your video a few weeks back on potatoes but do you think I could grow them to have enough to put up for a family of three.
I was inspired after watching Hollis' video on how to grow potatoes in buckets. I gave it a go and planted four 5 gallon buckets. It was so much fun to watch the progress of the plants and then to harvest. I got a lot of tasty potatoes out of those 4 buckets. It is definitely worth a go. Follow his directions and you will no doubt have great success.
I've been battling vine borer moths since the end of March here in SE Texas. Today, I pulled off over a hundred eggs from 5 plants. At first they only went after the zucchini but they found the yellow squash a couple weeks ago. Found a couple eggs on the butternuts and none on the cucumbers ... yet. Just started harvesting a few squash last week, and knock wood, don't see any indication that any borers have made it into my plants. It's been a weird spring here with the drought and I wonder if that's why the vine borers are worse than usual. I've about enjoyed all I can stand of de-egging twice a day. Should be fun when the squash bugs show up. LOL
Hollis, can you give me a hint why my yellow squash is getting yellow leaves? I put some blood meal around them and i try to not over water…. But it has been over 103 degrees here in Tx for the last 18 days…. I think I am loosing them.. they havent produce that much, but some.
i would LOVE to have a harvest like that...them dang ole squash vine borers have found my garden the last 3 years.....we get "some" squash but eventually, the SVB kill everything!?>!?!?!? you have any recommendations on how to deal with SVB?????
I have learned so much from you and your videos with your wife and bing bing love him. I’m in Southwest Florida. I know we’re gonna be a little different. Definitely zones, but I wish there was way you could publish your notebook. You make them so clear and precise and I’m an audio visual learner as well so this is wonderful
Hollis, Thank you so much! I'm a Florida 9b newbie, and I truly appreciate your step-by-step process for each crop! There's still hope! Miss Nancy, Please share your gift for growing beautiful hydrangeas and azaleas! Mine continue to struggle. Bless you both for sharing your tried and true methods!
Thank you for talking about growing in Florida, it is always confusing as the best of types to grow here and how to. After just watching your video on growing Elephant Garlic, I just ordered my Elephant Garlic from Hoss and excited!

SO BLESSED TO GIVE SUCH A BLESSING
I love your videos. How do you prevent your crop from the bugs like the squah bug or beetles and others. Thank you for sharing. So nice. Merci.
I planted radishes around my squash...no problems with vine borders.
Can’t imagine you having haters. Brother you’re out here playing chess while these fools playing tic tac toe. Love your videos
Thank you sir❤️

I love y’all, been following you for some years now
Did you guys make a video of how you put up squash?
Can you buy by the black kow by the pallet?
Have you ever had trouble with squash bores getting into your squash
Can you use sardines?
Will pelletized limestone work?
Did you have any problem with squash bugs?
I wish I was your neighbor!!
How many squash plants do you plant?

Judith above said it perfectly. Thank you for all you do for us.
Hjhbhhhih
agree!!!!!
Agreed
Yes indeed! It’s so clearly lyes out,without talking down to those of us “newbies!”
Hi Hollis I like the notebook you keep you should make a book of it and sell it to us so we can go to it each year for reference. Fingers crossed 🤞 thanks 😎👨🏻🌾👨🍳
But it needs to be printed out as handwritten and hand drawn… Just like the one in the videos. 😂😂😂 No typing! 🎉❤
@@vickivee Yes! I love this idea.
Yes!
Do you have trouble with squash vine borer's down there? If so, how do you treat for them? Thank you!
Squash bugs are terrible up here in NC.
The format of your videos is ideal! No one else shows start to finishing gardening like this. It's SO helpful!
You two impress me with your knowledge, your hard work, and your generosity. I really believe the Lord is pleased with the servants heart you both have.

Using fish in plantings is also an old Native American way
That soil looks sweet --. I’ve never seen so many squash per plant! Superb! Magnificent!
Hey Hollis. Great video, as usual, and with great information for us to have a successful garden.
Do you have an issue with squash bugs in your area, and if so, how do you deal with them? Awesome haul BTW
Good question
If you're talking about the vine borer....research their breeding season in your location and I recommend BT for prevention. Bacteria injection starves the larvae.
I have them bad in North texas through July. After independence day....I'm golden
My question also. Squash bugs gets me every time.

Holy “Kow,” that’s some nice squash!
Thanks for the calcium tip! My squash got blossem end rot last year and I didn't use a lot of fertilizer. Will add some lime for next season for sure.
It realy worked like a charm. Thanks a lot!!!

Thanks Hollis and Nancy. Quick question, what do you do for weed mitigation? Its looking clean!! Amazing work!
I just love y’all full of information and joy! One question though, how do you control the vine bore’s?! I have the worst time with them except last year, I planted early. The first sign of them where I live in SC is June
Another great video, my problem is "Squash vine borers" I lost the battle to them last year.
Do you ever have issues with vine borers? I'm outside Savannah, GA and have had problems the last 3 years. What would you do about them?
I have never had success with squash, they always die from borers. I've tried wrapping stems but didn't help. Any suggestions would be great?
I read an article that said the crooked neck squash is more resistnat to those buggers. My squash was decimated by the buggers last year and i checked them daily to pick off any intruders. I think I harvested only two squash.
Great harvest, I hope my harvest can be a third of that, thanks to your tips and most of all to our Heavenly Father.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I would love to spend they day with you all. Thank you for sharing Joy with the world.
Good video. I use canned Sardines in water from wally world when planting and lime on top. What a difference .88 cents can make!

Will fish emulsion work almost as well as actual fish?

Is that what called crookneck squash?
i would LOVE to have a harvest like that...them dang ole squash vine borers have found my garden the last 3 years.....we get "some" squash but eventually, the SVB kill everything!?>!?!?!? you have any recommendations on how to deal with SVB?????
Crazy question, could I buy a can of sardines at the store ? Just wondering how it would work.
Great idea!
I have learned so much from you and your videos with your wife and bing bing love him. I’m in Southwest Florida. I know we’re gonna be a little different. Definitely zones, but I wish there was way you could publish your notebook. You make them so clear and precise and I’m an audio visual learner as well so this is wonderful
Hollis, Thank you so much! I'm a Florida 9b newbie, and I truly appreciate your step-by-step process for each crop! There's still hope! Miss Nancy, Please share your gift for growing beautiful hydrangeas and azaleas! Mine continue to struggle. Bless you both for sharing your tried and true methods!
Thank you for talking about growing in Florida, it is always confusing as the best of types to grow here and how to. After just watching your video on growing Elephant Garlic, I just ordered my Elephant Garlic from Hoss and excited!
Wow, I have never seen a squash harvest like that. Truly impressive.
