I use the weed barrier fabric. Use a small butane torch to cut and to put holes in fabric. It'll keep it from unraveling. You'll be able to use it for 3 to 5 yrs. Garden looks good. May God bless it and it provide plenty. It's awesome to have your kid helping. Hats off to her..... Great job.
Seems like yesterday that I was farming with my son. He has since moved to Japan and got married. Enjoy the time you 2 spend together doing things like this. I now grow hydroponically with my grandkids. My farm is one of the largest Hydroponic farms in West Tennessee, so I also have hired help, but I sure miss having my kids around the farm. love the content my friend. Chuck
The teamwork and friendship between Mike and Frankie is awesome. She is such a respectful young lady and you guys are doing a great job teaching her so many life skills. Good luck with the garden, looks like it's going to be plentiful. Thanks for sharing
Great job! Frankie is turning out to be quite the hard working young woman! Raised a good kid guys! I had my son out today laying some weed barrier in my lil garden. Gonna do some raised beds this year. I'm in NY and my soil is rock solid so I'm building beds. Keep up the great work!
Hi Mike and Frankie. Frank and Jackie here at Burkeshire Farm. Just an FYI. When you cut that ground cover with a knife, it causes it to fray real bad. We use a small hand held torch and a straight edge to cut ours and burn holes in it. Works pretty good. We are in the process of building our Hiller for our tiller. Great video. Keep it going and God Bless.
I think it is absolutely amazing have a good job you two have gone with Frankie she is turning into a sweet young lady well-educated and grounded I have been watching your videos for a long time now ever since she was a little kid it is amazing how time flies God bless your family
Happy Mothers Day Syd!!!❤😊 I'm so happy to see everything coming together for Y'all!!! Looking good,here's to the future and all of the success that it will bring to your family. Take care and God Bless!!!❤😊
You're shure she is just 13 years old !!! Man she is a beast looks how she handle that wheel barrow. 🤠🤠🤠 And that Kubota she drives like a real farm girl.

Ph of 5.2 to 6.0 is great for potatoes most plants like 6.5 One thing you need to know about nitrogen when you're in a humid region is that once you apply it you either need to work it in or water it in. High humidity and above 80 to 85 temps the N begins to denitrophy, in the right conditions it will escape to the atmosphere in mere hours
New sub. Kudos to the beautiful young lady out there helping get the work done. As a kid 40 years ago, I hated three things more than anything. Working in the garden, taking naps and going to bed early. Which oddly enough is my 3 most favorite things now. I have come around full circle. 🤣🤣🤣
Bravo......the only easy day .......is yesterday ..........that's a small tractor ......slow roll.........getter done.........hats off to all farmers.....cheers
@3 MISSISSIPPI yep I saw he said that later in the video. For that nut grass or nut sage you can get sage out I think it's called at the feed stores. I saw that while they were spreading compost on the rows.
Do you add drip tape under the plastic? Her in TX. The heat from the black plastic cooks the plants in summer. The young lady that helps. Has a great attitude. How do you encourage her? I think that is great!
I got 9 yds of mushroom compost for my garden this year. I just spread it with my front end loader and then disced it in. Sounds like your soil is acidic like ours. We normally apply 4 tons of lime per acre to decrease the acidity. I probably need to get a ton or two to put on my garden.
How come when I put my fabric down the wind always shows up? 🤔 I cut my fabric with a torch to seal the ends so they don't unravel. AM Leonard sells a magnetic tool to push those staples into the ground while you are standing, you'll appreciate that more when you get to be my age. Nice plot you have there, look forward to seeing more!
He had one tarp that was a different brand that ripped up immediately during the first high wind we had. But whatever this other fabric that he got down to cover the rows is …seems to work great. Oh well, it helps to have a teenager that you hire as your helper in the garden because she can do a lot more bending than he can 😂
We planted our 30 x 50 foot raised row garden last month. Everything is coming up, but unfortunately so is wheat from the straw that we bought for building our rows. As I pull it out it is disturbing the soil around the plants and seedlings and there are quite a few clumps. Should I let it grow and hope the other plants like corn and beans choke it out or will the wheat choke out the vegetables?
I need to clean my garden up however yesterday I saw my helper. A garden snake do not want to scare him away my cats might help kill him/her if they see him/her
@rangertruck I know we just did a video on them recently again and he might be temporarily out. You can send him a message directly through his Etsy to see about getting one 😀
Very helpful video! Frankie is a real cutie! How do y'all like that model of Kabota? Just started home garden on my land in south Lauderdale County, MS. I'll take all the advise that I can get! RickeyB
I can eat tomatoes, but I can not touch the vines without having a skin reaction. That amazed several friends of mine. Years later, I found that the vines do have a toxic substance some individuals. Vines are toxic to eat also. So I wonder if those horn worms that eat tomatoes are toxic too? Why birds don't seem to eat them. Just a thought.
@3 MISSISSIPPI I've never had wild birds go after them. I assume you're referring to chickens. Never had chickens, so I don't know. I'm glad to know that they do. 👍
The boss gave a worker a bucket of paint and a brush paint the line down the road first day he made 10 miles second day 7 miles third day 2 miles boss said what is wrong that bucket is getting farther and farther away 😂

If you are leaving the ground cover on for this garden season, you can use a butane torch to burn holes where you plan to plant.
Yep that’s exactly what he plans on doing 👍😀
@3 MISSISSIPPI yep I saw he said that later in the video. For that nut grass or nut sage you can get sage out I think it's called at the feed stores. I saw that while they were spreading compost on the rows.
LOL great work guys gardens will look great this years.
Those are some nice rows! Great job!
Do you add drip tape under the plastic? Her in TX. The heat from the black plastic cooks the plants in summer. The young lady that helps. Has a great attitude. How do you encourage her? I think that is great!
He does have drip tape down . Our daughter gets paid hourly to work on the farm . She is a great kid though and a hard worker for sure .
You two make such a great team👍 Imma be planting my garden this weekend… wish me luck Y’all!
Luck 🍀!!!

Tip: Use a blow torch to carefully burn the edges of the cut ends of the landscape fabric to keep it from fraying over time. 😊
We do that and have a stencil we use to burn out the holes for planting too .
@@3MISSISSIPPI Awesome, I just noticed that you don’t burn the ends before you put your dirt over it.
Franky is a working machine.great videos.
She is ! Thank you 🙏
Dig the Ariat hat ,good show!
Nice work guys your lil girl if beautiful and hard working
Thanks for sharing. Great garden. Take care. ✌️🇺🇸❤️
Good job y’all
Garden is looking awesome
HUUGE
Wow Great Job Guys
Thank you 🙏
Cool content! Cool family!!
Thank you 🙏
Frankie’s eagerness to work and all those bracelets on her wrist tells me she has her mommas style lol
😂
Wow, learned some new stuff! Thanks for sharing. Lmao, "could I just throw this somewhere?"
Hmmm! Drip irrigation might help. But you may get more rain than I get.
We do but he still has drip irrigation in for the dry spells
That is one gorgeous garden ❤... Frankie is the bomb diggity 👍❤.... Happy Mother's day Syd 💐💞
Happy Mother’s Day !!!
you working that Frankie like a borrowed mule. lol and how she will appreciate it when she gets older
She’s an hourly employee so we expect her to work hard … she’s getting paid 😂.
Chickens like tomato cuttings?
Some do 😀
How do you keep the deer out of the garden?
Where do you get hog compost please?

Do you put Epsom salts around your pepper plant?
Yes he has on occasion 😀
@@3MISSISSIPPI Was wondering how helpful it is.
Mike says it’s only once in awhile because sometimes it can do more harm than good .
ok so you put a weed barrier down, but not on all rows. Do you do that just for certain crops?
He didn’t plant all the rows that first year so I think that might have been the factor …
Hello you too
I need to clean my garden up however yesterday I saw my helper. A garden snake do not want to scare him away my cats might help kill him/her if they see him/her
I may have missed it in the video but why is the row covered before planting after the fertilizer and top cover have been put on top of the row?
Syd here … I’ll have to have Mike address this but I believe it’s to control weeds and protect the young plants .
good looking rows,,,,they are better than mine and i have been doing it many years but then again, i don't have any good help.
That row builder makes a huge difference!
Are you staying at the Tenkiller lodge on the backside of the office?
Ha ha yes
@@3MISSISSIPPI when you came back to the lodge, that was me out walking.
Hi....why do you put the black wrapping over the soil?
Syd here … I’ll have to have Mike confirm but I think it’s to control weeds and protect the young plants .
What does a row maker look like? and does it hook up on the back on your 3 pt tractor tiller?
Our neighbor built it and he sells the kits on his Etsy store ( link in the description ). Yes , it attaches to the tiller on your 3 pt
@@3MISSISSIPPI well id like to have one how much does he charge for them
@rangertruck I don’t know exactly but here is the link to his store www.etsy.com/shop/IronWorksHouston?load_webview=1&bid=vfgHaaJGcJasyBIlm_gIyndTqsqQ
Pulled link up nothing like that on there
@rangertruck I know we just did a video on them recently again and he might be temporarily out. You can send him a message directly through his Etsy to see about getting one 😀
Would you please talk about how you built the row builder?
We didn’t build it another friend did.
You can tell I'm still out here in California. It always scares me when barrier goes down without some irrigation lines.
😂
Mike, what landscape fabric did you use? Would it help my plants moisture level here in middle Georgia? It is so hot and dry here.
He can’t remember the brand, but it’s woven fabric in an absolutely helps retain moisture.
Very helpful video! Frankie is a real cutie! How do y'all like that model of Kabota? Just started home garden on my land in south Lauderdale County, MS. I'll take all the advise that I can get! RickeyB
Thanks so much ! We love it ! Of course a bigger one would be nice but this one we could afford 💰
Im doing this bye hand like the old days so thats my problem is the dirt to dead and sanded
Sounds like you need to rebuild the health of your soil …
Yep a tractor is faster than us old folks with walk behind tillers
💯
I'm lazy, would use a large animal feed scoop to spread top dressing.
Frankie’s hott… take a lemonade break under a shade tree!!
Everything you showed with the triple 13 is a great way to get nitrogen toxicity
🤙🏻
Where’d you get the row maker? I’be been thinking about something similar in design
Our neighbor designed it and sells the kit on his Etsy shop ( the link is in this description ) 😀
@@3MISSISSIPPI thank you!!

It takes work to reap the rewards plus we are starting from scratch since it’s our first year here.
I think your measurement of a half a bag of lime was off. Looked like about a quarter of a bag by the time you stopped pouring. 😂
😂 I thought you just put the lime in the coconut 🥥?
