Nice Bark River knife.
Keep the marigolds‼️
Are you going to plant the black peas
Happy Father’s Day to the both of you , really appreciate your Channel!!!
Thanks! Happy Father's Day to you and your family as well!
I cannot wait to see the harvest of the southern Anna. I'm growing one plant from seed I bought from you guys. It was kind of late but it looks better than all the other squash. I planted traditional Waltham and my first squash was small and shameful.
👍
I told my dad what y’all said about the triple sweets corn, of course he don’t know y’all besides what I said about y’all and told him that’s where I get my seeds but he said I’m getting hossed 🤣🤣🤣
Lol. My husband calls the two of them my boyfriends 😂
😂
Travis I love the jambalaya okra but since it is a hybrid can I keep some seeds from this year for next year? I am trying to build a cash of seeds from almost everything I grow this year just to see if I can. Thanks
Hybrid seeds won't be true to variety if you plant them.
What's the name of the worm killer you use on your corn. I live in Florida and them corn worms laugh at TB

My marigolds played out only in drought. Keep them! Have you tried Candlefire okra? I think it’s a more productive red okra than the red burgundy was. I couldn’t tell the difference after I picked them.
Have not tried Candlefire, but intend on carrying it next year and trying it.
So you do y’all eat your harvest through the winter?? Just started watching your channel and I love it. Are y’all avid homesteaders?? Anyways keep up the good work.
We've been growing our own food our entire lives. We eat much of it fresh, can/freeze some and sell a little.
I say keep the marigolds, they add beauty and protection to your garden plot. Question does all corn grow on an average only two cobs per stork??
With field corn, 2 ears per stalk is normal. With sweet corn, we usually get just one ear per stalk
@@gardeningwithhoss All that stalk and only one. I sure do like sweet corn tho .... Thanks guys
Hmmmmm....You just made me think. I only plant C mochata squashes like your South Anna butternut because of their resistance to vine borers, they grow beautifully. I wonder if I snuck a few C Pepo’s like your acorn or C Maximas like buttercup, IN WITH THEM, would that confuse the borers enough that I could get some squash. I don’t spray anything I just work to maintain the best living soil possible and usually plant things well suited my area.
Not a bad idea at all.
Hello!
What is the average height of your orka at full growth?
Also, how do you take care of your squash bugs? I love growing the queen!
Thank you! :)
the different varieties vary, here is a link to our Okra page. The height is in the description.

For squash bugs, bug buster 2

@@gardeningwithhoss thank you!
Hey Travis, could you perhaps on one of your review videos give me your Best Tasting varieties. I know you have to grow for production but my garden is for just little ole me and I want to grow the best flavorful. Especially Okra. I like Jing Orange (red one) and I have Alabama Red (fat one) but I'm lookin for the old fashion green one. Can you recommend a variety? like it to be heirloom because I save my seeds for monetary reasons. Thanks
To be honest, we can't tell a huge difference in taste on many okra varieties. But the Jambalaya tastes great and is the most productive.
What was the name of the chemical you sprayed the corn for worms
Spinosad. Here's the link: hosstools.com/product/spinosad-garden-insect-spray/
I've never used the drip irrigation you talk about. However we have decided that is the way to go for us next year here is South Carolina. How long do you leave the drip on and how often do you use it? Do you somehow measure "by the inch" the amount of water or is it a matter of a learning curve? Thanks.
You can easily tell from the color of the soil if the plants have had enough water. You'll see a dark ring around the rows when the soil is saturated.
@@gardeningwithhoss Thank you Travis! Oh, and what about your dad? He recorded his video with the phone in the wrong direction...school him on that son. ;-) Give him our love.
Which is the most tender ?
Our new favorite is the Green Fingers
@@gardeningwithhoss many thanks.
Are the marigolds a perinnal?
In warmer climates they are.
Keep the seed and plant it every spring.
Which okra has the best ole okra taste. I love the jambalaya but the Cowhorn just seems to have an ole okra taste about it.
I honestly can't tell a huge taste difference between okra varieties.
Hey Travis do you spray the spinosad as soon as silks show ? And is there a way to do it so it don't effect pollination in a bad way?
Yes, we do it as soon as silks appear. It shouldn't affect pollination if you're just spraying the silks.
@@gardeningwithhoss ok good deal thank you for the quick reply!!
How close are those okra and squash plants?
Okra 1', squash 2'
@@gardeningwithhoss WOW! That's close but it looks like their nice thick and healthy rows. I didn't think they would produce that close, man I'm wasting a lot of space. Thanks for the reply.
I have tomatoes growing in garden ground, they are firing up in the bottom ant any size. What am I doing wrong? Also my green beans are turning yellow at the base what is wrong please.
If the bottoms of the tomatoes are rotting, that's called "Blossom End Rot" and is caused by a calcium deficiency. It can easily be fixed with some of this (hosstools.com/product/pelletized-gypsum-soil-conditioner/). Put a handful at the base of each plant and water it into the soil.
If plants are yellow, it's usually a result of not enough nutrients or too much water. If they aren't being overwatered, they probably just need some fertilizer.
What zone are you?
8b
Being from south Florida. I'm still laughing about how close you planted south Anna. Those Seminole genetics produce 40ft+ vines on the regular. I know the lady with the oldest barn in davie. It's an old Indian burial mound there. You should see the pumpkins growing wild hanging from the trees. It's a real mind blowing sight to see. I'm gonna plant some south Anna I bought from u under some trees I have so they trellis. I'll also row by row like u...but I was thinking 20ft between solid 1 ft planting rows. After seeing u yours. I might go 12ft center to center instead
We figured we could push the limits since we had them on drip.
@@gardeningwithhoss it's a true testament to the disease resistance.
Sorry, for a damn yankee clueless question, but what the holler is a low country boil? Sounds delicious, just never heard of it before.
Corn potatoes shrimp sausage mostly
onions, peppers, sweet corn, sausage, potatoes, and shrimp in a pot. Fine stuff!
What is the most productive heirloom okra variety?
So far the Silver Queen variety has been our most productive as far as heirlooms go.
Your okra productivity is somewhat skewed when you have jambalaya planted in 4 rows and only one row of each of the others. Plant for plant in my garden, everything depends on the year. Last year, jambalaya, baby bubba, and Burgundy were a bust while Lee and Green Velvet did well. This year Go Big and red velvet are excelling while jambalaya and Burgundy aren't too far behind, but Lee, Clemson Spineless, and Green Velvet just aren't producing as they have in the past. But my two best lady finger sellers are Nombo Giant and Elephant Tusk. Nombo Giant is hands down the best okra one can grow as they stay tender up to 7 inches long and are big sellers in areas with large numbers of people of Filipino backgrounds.
I'll be glad to do a future video and compare the harvest per row. Nothing compares to Jambalaya. I've done this trial at least 3-4 times and the results are always the same.
