So truth: I was avoiding a fall garden because I just wasn't feeling it. But - now, I'm inspired. May not get to everything I originally wanted but definitely several. Thank you!

[@inthetwinklingofaneye]

He has a way of doing that! Only do what you feel like, though, what you know you have time for. don't put pressure on yourself to do it all. (speaking from experience.. :))

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

Some is perfect!

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

Just a few things for sure.

[@stoneybrook57]

You are the most helpful gardener on youtube. Just a wonderful teacher. I appreciate you!

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

Thanks so much. It really is my goal. People learn at different speeds. Have a great weekend.

[@kimparker1752]

I recommend AgroThrive if you are looking for an organic liquid fertilizer. Every since Gary started recommending I have been blown away by the improvements in my plants and in seed starting. A little goes a long way and it doesn't stink anything like the fish emulsion!!

[@cindybroadus3277]

Thanks you make it easy and stress free. You are such a relax style grower and some of us really need that 😅

[@jaytoney3007]

Hi Gary. Last Monday I sowed seeds for kohlrabi, Pak Choi, Komatsuna, Yellow Heart Winter Choy, Golden Detroit Beets, and Brunswick Cabbage. I am still waiting on the Brunswick Cabbage and beets to sprout. Everything else is up, and thinned down. The Brunswick Cabbage is in an area that gets a lot of sun, so I may have to replant after it cools down, probably the end of the month, of Beginning of October. The heat wave has broken, but there is more 93F days in the forecast. This year, my biggest pest problem has been cutworms, and horned worms. I had a major infestation, that resulted in having to remove several of my tomato plants early. I have a Black Cherry that is still going strong, and a volunteer Super Sweet 100 that has just begun to flower. In a week, or two. depending on the temperature, I will be sowing Early Girl Bush and Tom Thumb tomato plants for winter tomatoes, and sowing seeds for more turnips, beets, and carrots.

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

Beets do take longer. A lot of my first round of fall crops were eaten. So round 2 and 3 to go.

Looks like a tough week this week for many on the east coast. 90’s for several days. I’m also going to start some seeds indoors today and bring the seedlings out after they germinate when the heat wave passes.

[@Littlesharky-h2s]

Gary we’re gonna get in the high 90’s in Maryland next week, so if I planted today, what should I do to protect the seeds from the heat?

[@Kylie4Queen]

You can use a shade cloth over the area planted. He’s got a few videos on this that you can search for on his channel.

Have you ever experimented with using copper rings around plants to keep the slugs off them? I haven't tried this but it allegedly bothers them somehow, maybe some sort of electrical activity with how their slime interacts with the metal.

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

I have tried copper tapes but found slug baits are much cheaper and easier.

I have planted carrots and beets several times now and as soon as they pop up out of the soil they get completely eaten down by tiny brown caterpillars. Any advice would be appreciated on how to deal with these pests from eating all my tiny seedlings.

[@hawkrose8403]

When do you fertilize this? After the tender young plants come up? Thanks so much for this! Im getting ready to plant beets, carrots and bush green beans.

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

The water soluble is about a week after germination or so. One time is plenty for fall.

What would you recommend for snail and slug comtrol? With it being so wet this year and all the flooding here in Vermont, they are out of control. I want to keep it as natural control as possible. Thank you for all your time.

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

Any of the slug baits on the market. There is a link to my amazon shop in videos. I have some listed there. But the should just have iron phosphate or sulfur in the baits.

[@maryrekar2150]

Hi Gary. This is an off subject question. I have been growing ornamental cabbage and kale for fall for a few years now. I always have trouble keeping them short like in the nurseries. I found out this year that there is a growth regulator to put on them. Do you know anything about how I could get some of this. I checked amazon and it is way expensive. I just want to grow them for myself not to sell. Have you ever used the growth regulator and what was your experience. Thanks Gary😊

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

That is new to me actually. Also might be they are in smaller pots and are younger. Once they are in the ground and if weather is warm, the just grow. But I dont have any information on growth regulators. The Rusted Garden Seed & Garden Shop: www.therustedgarden.com Thanks... Here is how you can support me, more videos, and The Rusted Garden...

QUESTION Can I overwinter onions zone 7A? I seed started red onions and bunching onions in mid summer, they are at transplant size now but I don’t think I have enough of a season to grow these to maturity. The bunching onions I know I can use the greens but can I over winter the bulb onions?

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

They are biennials so if they got big enough, next year they will mostly flower and not really form bulbs. So varieties can make it through 7 a winters.

First of all, most people in the northern states and Canada have harsher winters than that. Second, you don't need to spend so much time saying what you're going to do in the video. Just do it and who cares about some silly "intro." This isn't 5th grade English class.

[@inthetwinklingofaneye]

how many videos have you made, Mr expert?

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

I dont agree with you. Most people have very different garden climates. People learn in different ways and this is a learning channel. If it's not for you I get it. But your input isn't really helpful because as you pointed out gardens vary as do the people watching. People have different levels of understanding. And start at different points in their learning.
