I am so thrilled to have found your channel and blog! I live in the Mohave desert zone 9B/10A and everyone is telling me that I am going to fail at gardening in this heat. I started a couple of months ago and so far so good just had some bush beans die. Thank you for the encouragement and showing us that it can be done :)

[@357_gardening]

I’m a zone 9b gardener! So glad I found you 🤓 subscribed!!

[@iztherelife1340]

This channel is going to be very good for beginning gardeners. Good explanation of foundational info they will need to sustain themselves in these times.

[@AudreysLittleFarm]

Thanks Tara! That is my hope 😊

[@AudreysLittleFarm]

Thanks Tara! That is my hope 😊

[@RCPrepping]

Lake County, Zone9b central Florida! Happy gardening.

[@BimmerFordDude]

Thanks so much! This is super helpful. I’m in El Dorado Hills, CA and it’s a zone 9B. I’m completely new to gardening and had no idea what to do - I’ll definitely be using your guide

[@AudreysLittleFarm]

Hi Patrick, I'm so happy to hear that! If you ever have questions I am happy to help out!

[@notalltheories]

Hiya neighbor! I live just up the freeway from you in Cameron Park. Just wanted to wish you luck in your new gardening endeavor!

[@ShannonDee]

I'm watching from El Dorado Hills, too! Haha. Pretty hard to come by 9b-specific advice.

[@Earthmuffin78]

Omgosh heyyyy! In Pollock Pines and I want to start gardening and your all right, it's hard to find advice for our zone. Good luck!

[@user-xj3xd2by4j]

I really trust Audrey with her suggestions and tips. My garden is doing well and doing well with her recommendations. Thank you

[@berry1057]

Ugh thanks so much, these were actually helpful!

[@eljacalitodeandrus9905]

I just found your channel. I am 9b in Santa Clarita(Six Flags). I do not know yet when to plant, yes they go to seed. It is dry and hot in my area, thank you for the tips👍

[@deniseflewellen5572]

I'm in Florida & I believe zone 9b need to learn alot about planting

[@aileenbell6750]

This is awesome! Gardener in Tucson in my first season, and I am glad to find your channel.

[@AudreysLittleFarm]

Awesome! Thank you! I'm so happy to hear that!

[@ktpieallen]

I’m done 9b Modesto 1/2 acre in town

[@notalltheories]

I have searched and searched for good garden advice for zone 9 and it's frankly pretty hard to come by! Definitely subscribing to your channel. I just bought the complete planting guide and it is AWESOME! Unfortunately a little late in the spring for a lot of the cool-season stuff I love, but at least now I won't panic when it all bolts! haha! I'll just collect those seeds and try again in fall and focus more on those heat-tolerant crops for now.

[@AudreysLittleFarm]

Sorry for the late reply but I am so happy to read this comment! Thanks for subscribing! I'm so glad to hear that the Guide has been helpful as well!

[@star85827]

im in zone 9b in modesto and i had the worst season for 2022 ever. The heat stunted everything! I got practically no tomatoes at all out of like 9 plants and this year i put them in the ground, every year before I did them in pots and had way more....Not sure if it was the soil and the weather or what but it was horrible and not worth the investment :(

[@shininglightllc]

Super helpful!! I’m a beginner gardener in zone 9b and definitely could use this channel! The guide looks awesome! Kind of expensive but it hasn’t been easy to find a reliable guide for 9b. Thank you for your content! 🤗

[@GardenHappy]

I'm a zone 9b gardener. Great video thank you!

[@morgannwilliams967]

True on the watering especially specifically because my first attempt a couple years ago I quickly learned about hydrophobia. I don’t have money for any slow drip system but I try my best with not just flooding plants.

[@BlendAndConquer]

I bought this “planner” and I can’t wait to see what I yield this year!

[@AudreysLittleFarm]

Yay I am so glad! I can't wait to hear how your garden turns out this year😊

[@cacahead2542]

Do you find it useful still?

[@pongop]

Thank you! This is helpful.

[@Alison2436]

Thanks, very helpful

[@BobandMarthaRenteria]

I like your video, because I have a visual problem and the video moving affects me. Like most old people it would help to use a stand or just put up a table. Thank you for the great info.

[@selfsufficientmercantile]

We are in zone 9b also. Good info!

[@fromsunrisetosunset1192]

Thankyou so so much!!!

[@quintamaria022]

This is very helpful. I just started my seeds inside. Last summer, we really struggled. Hopefully, it will be better this year.

[@AudreysLittleFarm]

Thank you I'm glad to hear that! I hope so too!

[@debbiee7850]

Hi, your Zone 9b gardening Guide looks amazing. HOW does it differ from my zone of 9a ??

[@AudreysLittleFarm]

Hi Debbie, Thanks! Zone 9a and 9b only vary 5 degrees on average and so it will work perfectly for zone 9a as well😊

[@ddr526]

Zone 9 really hot summers

[@patriciaterry5539]

Zone 9b Manteca, Ca!

[@johnchadwell2675]

Is a planting guide for 9b in Florida same as maybe a 9b in Texas or Arizona?

[@AudreysLittleFarm]

Hi John, each state will vary slightly as far as which exact varieties do best but the the planting dates will be a really great guideline no matter which state you are in. I am in CA zone 9b.

[@soniamartinez5499]

I planted from seed about a month ago eggplants and peppers but they started having a whitefly issue so I sprayed water and vinegar and the leaves died. Will they survive? They were looking so good

[@mesterak]

Vinegar is an acid, so it’s possible you made the soil too acidic and it killed your plants.

[@BMPJAX]

I’m in north Florida zone 9a. Will your pdf work for me? If not… can it be adjusted? Need all the help I can get! Thank you for creating this guide…

[@Murder.Muffin]

Where in North FL? I've looked up my area and I get different zones. 9a and 9b. Super confused. I'm about 1 hour from GA. I hope you respond.

[@AudreysLittleFarm]

Hi sorry for the late reply! 9a and 9b are so similar and so my zone 9b information will apply for both.

[@AudreysLittleFarm]

Hi sorry for the late reply! Yes it will, 9a and 9b are so similar and so my zone 9b information will apply for either.

[@jennywhite6907]

Audrey, please tell me which tomatoes you grow. Mine just die from fungus

[@AudreysLittleFarm]

Hi Jenny, do you grow heirlooms? They are usually the most susceptible to disease, fungus, pests, etc. I've had really good luck with hybrid varieties, a few that do best for me are, Early Girl, Better Boy, & Celebrity.

[@salSwe]

We have had great luck with Jetsetter tomato. We’ve told several people and they love them too. Southern Cal.

[@deanfletcher8284]

I don't know if it is the heat or another issue, but my Zucchini plants are beautiful, with plenty of buds, but the zucchini vegetables grow to about 2"-3" long, and then rot on the plant. Any words of wisdom? Very frustrating!!

[@lilij8988]

Are you supplementing calcium? That seems to be the issue when that happens to me. You might also try trellising them so they don’t sit on the dirt.

[@deanfletcher8284]

@@lilij8988 Actually no, I'm not supplementing with calcium. Do you have a recommendation for a product to use?

[@shellybaldenegro1160]

How do I grow oregano?

[@AudreysLittleFarm]

I recommend buying it as an already started transplant and then after transplanting it’s very easy. I have mine in mostly shade and I hardly water it and it still grows great.

[@servantofjesus3004]

Hi Audrey, I live in Santa Rosa and have never gardened before. I would love to start though! My soil is full of clay, can you recommend how to amend it so I can be ready for beginning my first garden? 🪴 Would definitely love to purchase your plant guide too-thanks in advance 🪴

[@AudreysLittleFarm]

Hi! So sorry for the late response. You can mix in a variety of amendments such as compost, peat moss, and perlite. They would all help quite a bit! I also have a Fall Gardening Course inside of my membership that would be really helpful for you if you'd like to get a fall garden going this year😊 You can learn more about it here, audreyslittlefarm.com/yt-fall-garden-challenge
