I forgot I wanted to ask you after I harvested the beads. How long would they be good for and is there a way I can keep them longer because I harvested quite a bit any suggestions and should I cut off their leaves or no?
@GreenThumbGardener2 күн бұрын
👋 Hi @janeschade7875, Great question! Generally, beets can last in the fridge for up to 2-3 weeks. To keep them fresh longer, store them in airtight containers with a damp paper towel. Try to keep the leaves attached, as they can help keep the beets fresh. Hope this helps! 🌱🍅🥗

I appreciate your time and effort to share how to's, but your video was really disappointing. First of all, you didn't share what time of year was best, to cut back the Tx Sage. Then, I could see anything that you were doing, because of the shade that you and the plant were in. It would have been nice for you to be able to zoom in on the actual cutting. I hope I haven't insulted you in my concerns. Just wondering if anyone else had the same thoughts.

What percentage of Pete Moss vermiculite perlite and organic matter compost goes in the bucket. I’m a brand new gardener and last year. I got no beats only leaves. I’m in zone 7A.
@GreenThumbGardener2 ай бұрын
👋 Hey there, @janeschade7875! As a general rule for container gardening, you can mix equal parts peat moss, vermiculite, and compost, with a bit of perlite (around 10-20%) for extra drainage. However, it's also important to consider the specific needs of the plants you're growing. For example, beets prefer a slightly alkaline soil, so adding lime may be helpful. And don't forget about proper watering and sunlight! Good luck with your gardening this year! 🌿🍅🌶️🥕🥬👍

Timing and technique for drying can also vary based on the type of vegetable. We'll definitely try to cover this information in more detail in future videos! 🌿🌱🥕
