Love all your "Real World" information. Carolyn
Wow!! Your cabbage looks amazing.
Hey Travis and family. 😊
Travis, I’ve been following you since I started gardening 5 years ago. I have learned so much from you. I just want to say thank you.
Brussel sprouts are absolutely beautiful! From what I’ve heard the tops are delicious too.
Great video, moved on last week in 10b lol tomatoes went in, cucumbers, peppers and sweet potatoes. Last brassicas will iether make it or perish no worries
sprout tops are lovely too, see loads of peole throw it away, its basically a giant sprout lol
Man your like a ghost! Super excited that I found your content again. I subscribed right away dude. Cant wait for your all of your videos!
Welcome aboard!
We have spummer in Texas so warm weather crops it is.
I left a comment on your drip tape video, about Turkey Creek Tomatoes.
Well not here lol nothing cool about here at the moment 84° today. But will continue on with other stuff. Nice job with those brussels sprouts. Don’t think they would fare well here, but might try it anyway one year L O L
My broccoli has already bolted in my state, you need shade cloth to protect them from the uv of the sun.
Everything you cover has value. If I am not growing I tuck it away until Iam growing it. Here in 9b in east Texas we seem to have Hotter and colder weather than you, which make a lot of difference in what we can manage. My cabbage does fine so does my winter lettuce, but Carrots grow but never make until the spring rolls in. Onions and garlic grow pretty well and I get some good sized onions and some pretty big garlic. You have been very helpful with most everything.
I’m southeast Texas, 9a. I’m with you…it’s hard to grow some things. You’ve got to plant in fall, cross your fingers, and hope they have time to grow before the heat comes. Then, if you don’t start tomatoes in December to put out in February or March, they’ll cook in the heat before they make anything. It’s an interesting growing area for sure.
I live in the San Antonio area and I live in nothing but sand so growing anything is impossible because you can’t keep it watered. I live in the country but the bugs always find me. Had a new one show up last year called a blister beetle and they eat tomato plants down to the stem. My cabbages, cauli, broc etc get eaten up by worms. Totally frustrating,not to mention the heat.
@@1stbadger700 That’s rough! Maybe try raised beds with row covers.
@@adigmon I started 18 gallon grow bags last year but started a bit too late to get a good summer harvest. I have amended the soil already and started my seeds in Jan and feb. I am hoping for better production this year. Gotta watch for those pesky copperhead snakes tho. Found a skin in one of my bags last year. I think Texas is the United States Australia with all the poison things here.
@@1stbadger700 Ugh…snakes are my worst fear! We have a barn cat and an indoor cat that spends most of her time in the garden and they definitely help

Welcome aboard!
Give the bunnies a small garden to distract them!
Here in Thomasville my collards and mustards are flowering, planted my cabbages in December , I think it's late gonna be hot all week. Hope it works out.
I am in zone 9A and I'm trying brussel sprouts. My other ones didn't grow/ survive. It may get to hot but we will see
Your sprouts look amazing!! I will try those next year! A few years ago I was gifted with mature plants from my son’s elementary school (sprouts included). For grins, I cooked up the main heads of the mother plant and they were just as delicious as the sprouts!
Roll Tide... Love you Travis.
Jeff from East Tennessee. Cold and wet. We will get few days in upper 60’s. Today March 1 it was 48 degrees and rain. Going to plant some cabbage and broccoli. Got short day onions growing from late October. Starting to look good after some cold days this winter!! I have no drip top on them. They have gotten a lot of rain so that’s not a problem. Just put some 12/12/12 on them. Can I hit them again soon with some stronger fertilizer?? Should I push that green or is it too late????
Have rabbit problems here. Deer and woodchucks too. Plus moles. . gonna keep at backyard gardening. Here in Michigan zone 5b. Onions are popping!
Nothing that I planted over the winter did anything. Just too cold this year. There are still turnips (bugs are now eating them) and carrots (been in the ground a long time but still tiny, tiny, tiny). The shallots and garlic are doing good though. It was worth a try but I put my cool season crops in a few weeks ago and they are looking good. Cabbage, Brussel sprouts, cauliflower (looks pitiful but maybe) and broccoli. Then I direct sowed radishes, lettuce, arugula, winter spinach and snow peas which have already sprouted.
I don't know about your red cabbage but mine takes 120 days to mature after transplanting where it only takes 75 days for green cabbage another good show
Trav, is that the megaton cabbage?
Yes
We are doing a bit of cool season combined with getting ready for summer plants. An actual fact and young rabbits (bunnies) can die from eating head lettuce. The Romaine type lettuces there is no issue. Curious and are you planning on doing a double planting per row of your sweet corn? As we are seriously considering doing such when we plant in may. Thank You for another fun and educational video!
Yes I'll be doing double rows on the sweet corn again this year.
@@LazyDogFarm Thank You for the reply. We are hoping to do three thirty foot rows using one drip tape per row at 6" spacing. Thus freeing up three rows for planting other crops. Now to going back and looking up your double corn row videos!
The rabbits around me seem to only eat my peas. They wiped out 3 thirty foot rows. But a dozen arrows later I think if thinned em out pretty good.
Im north of Charlotte NC and have been moving into the garden from greenhouse for the last week or so. Broccoli , lettuce , onions , spinach ,swiss chard . plants about a month old.
I see that you have rabbits and it’s miraculous that they leave your veggies alone. Do you deal with deer, squirrels, voles, gophers? Seems like you don’t really have a problem with any of them. Could you do a video about that?
Do you ever have problems with deer?
I don't. Too many open fields around us.
I've heard that planting your greens amongst some clover will help "protect" them from being eaten by the rabbits. As they will eat the clover first and it could help keep them clean of soil.
I transplanted the 3rd round of cool weather stuff a couple weeks ago. Last year I started now and ran out of time by just a week or two. Just depends on how fast it gets hot.
I can’t remember now but I planted Brussels sprouts in December January time frame. They looked great but the Brussels soon bolt and look like green flowers this is the first time planting them. I had an initial organic fertilizer at planting then used chicken compost from my chickens to supplement. They should have had plenty of nitrogen. Why am I doing wrong?
Try planting in October.
Bunnies in the garden is just a new protien source, not a nuisance!!!
First comment baby. Can’t wait to see them pepper plants coming up.
Yeah I put some extra cauliflower out in the raised bed, but I'm not expecting much as it was 86% yesterday.
Last year had issues with Onions due to warm weather in Sydney Australia 🇦🇺
This year seedlings looking good in pots , white onions didn’t germinate May be too early for them, one pot at home and one in greenhouse at Council facility i volunteer at.
Still growing red onions though there still bulging bigger stange😊
I found red cabbage seems to be way slower and never get as big as the green ones.
I have some kale and broccoli transplants I think I'm going to go ahead and plant. But I'm north of Atlanta, so I'm thinking they will be good for awhile unless it gets super hot super early. I'm hoping I'll be able to squeak at least a small harvest out of them though.
I'm going to have to fence my garden plots in or get a lot more proficient in wacking rabbits. All of my brassica transplants were decimated by them this year. About 150 transplants the first week. I only managed to kill 2 rabbits. I started another round and got them in the ground a couple weeks later and between the rabbits and cats literally digging them up to crap in the garden took out round 2. So no cabbage and broccoli for us this year😢. If I can manage to afford a fence I'll try again next fall. Any advice on deterring rabbits without a fence? I spent too many cold nights in the dark waiting for them without any results lol
Sling some lead
Might try some chicken wire or that plastic deer fencing from tractor supply. I was blessed with dog kennels that were no longer needed so chain linked my entire garden. Keeps the deer out thankfully
All the rabbits running wild in my Florida backyard just heard you put Lettuce in ground and they said they're heading north 😂😂
I’m just doing some pac choi and mini broccoli that have maturity dates of 40-45 days before turning my beds over to turmeric and tomatoes
