8 Crops To Plant After Your Garlic Harvest - Garden Quickie Episode 210

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

If you're hoping to get started with your first garden this year, or maybe you've tried in the past and didn't get the results you wanted, I've got a 12-chapter online course that'll get you there faster and started off the right way. Enrollment is now open, check it out here: courses.theripetomatofarms.ca/courses/vegetable-gardening-basics

We do, Lettuce, Carrots, and loads of Green Beans. Especially the beans. It's hard to grow them in the Spring as the Japanese Beetles will decimate the plants. Planted July 10th this year 5wks ago, and they are loaded with blossoms. We'll harvest daily to keep them coming until 1st frost, then pick the last flush, and chop n drop the plants in the same bed. This fills the freezer and creates 1 bed ready to go next Spring.

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

That's the way! All those 40-60 day crops that suffer in the summer...plant now for super fast germination and establishment, and then avoid all the pitfalls as the temps cool off heading to September! Its brilliant! 🙂

Great video. Love this planting season 🍁❤️

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

@@WelcometoGardenbytheYardChanel thanks, me too! What has been your most favorite crop?

[@WelcometoGardenbytheYardChanel]

@@TheRipeTomatoFarms thanks. So far fav is the peppers. I’m surprised they did well. Lookin forward to many new beans n peas this fall ☀️

I'm in Maine and harvest my garlic around August 1. I have kind of a large garden so space is not a big issue, so I like to sow at that time daikon radishes both as an interesting crop for the fall but also as a cover crop and natural tillage. The daikons drill deep into the soil then completely die away leaving holes in the ground. Makes the soil real nice in the spring. The daikons are at least where I'm at, not readily available, so a nice culinary veggie to devote garden space to.

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

That sounds like a great idea. Daikon availability is definitely spotty here too. We use them in Kachumber salads and they are amazing!

I did carrots and they are doing really well 👍, have an awesome weekend Jeff enjoy the rain Sunday, Ali 🌞🇨🇦

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

@@myrustygarden right on Ali! What variety did you go with? I'm addicted to the Nantes types nowadays!

[@myrustygarden]

@@TheRipeTomatoFarms Nantes, Bolero and one from a friend in the UK Top Wight it’s an Australian variety. I’m hoping to save seed from the latter

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

@@myrustygarden so epic. You growing the seed saving ones for two years? That's a fun project!

Happy to help Lar, let us know what you plant! 🙂

@@TheRipeTomatoFarms Hi Jeff, I decided on planting Early Wonder Beets. They are to mature in 50 days. I do have clear polycarbonate panels I can put over the beets like an arch, sealing off the ends, to keep them warm if it gets cold early.

[@wendyburston3132]

Never thought of planting carrots. Thanks.

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

@@wendyburston3132 yeah Wendy, most of the root crops except potatoes! It's a great time of year!

[@lar113]

Me neither. I thought they took far too long for such a late planting.

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

@@lar113 Normally they do, but because they germinate and get such a head start in the heat, they are like a 55 day crop at this time of year. Its awesome.

Good idea. I will get Peas seed and plant them this weekend. It gets to be very boring if I have nothing else to do.

[@TheRipeTomatoFarms]

You can never have enough peas! 🙂

@@TheRipeTomatoFarms It will be few more days before allis done. I'm still removing the sod.

[@VighneshwarIlangovan]

hey jeff i couldn't help but notice that you had not mentioned flowering plants as companion plants for pea , i would place it with marigold or hibiscus.
