Get that Henbit from that cabbage patch. Look it up.. it's good stuff! Grafts are looking good!

[@BrokeFarmer]

Just looked it up, thanks

[@MsCherokee70]

Yep... henbit is good eating & We feed it to our chickens too. Plus.. Chickweed is also on the menu. 😉

[@MsSharon]

@@MsCherokee70 yes! ALL of it ☺

[@RedLady198]

Lol not telling the bird to hush Broke😂😂😂😂 👍❤️

[@BrokeFarmer]

It don't pay no bills over here🤣

[@CraftyLeoCooks]

All I can tell you is determinant is determined to make it do what it do and indeterminate is gonna let what may happen happen.

[@BrokeFarmer]

😕 Glad you have other talents 🤣

[@freshandfire]

👀 🤔Dwarf mulberry? You know I’ve got to go find one now right?😆

[@BrokeFarmer]

They were 13 dollars at home depot

[@emekasearthgems3376]

😂😂 When you told the birds to hush, I fell out!! Your garden is looking so good! Thanks for sharing 💜

[@BrokeFarmer]

thank you

[@GmamaGrowz]

Now I gotta find me some outdoor carpet 😎 Spearmint is one of my favorites 🌿 13:14 Nice mulberry Blvd Let's Grooow!!

[@BrokeFarmer]

I don't remember where I got the carpet from

[@baneverything5580]

I put leaves, cardboard boxes (I have to order everything...in the boondocks with no car), and grass clippings thick around my fruit trees to choke out the weeds and hold in moisture plus feed them as it turns to dirt.

[@BrokeFarmer]

I love cypress woodchips

[@GINAvsGINA1]

Rain, sleet, or snow......💯💯💯

[@BrokeFarmer]

[@TheNakidGardeners]

Them butterflies love parsley. Definitely help bring on the pollinators and deter some pest

[@BrokeFarmer]

I got some seeds planted

[@lynnmartin1548]

♥️”Loquat, they don’t know how to spell but I know what it is 😂”

[@BrokeFarmer]

🤣 Definitely

[@Sylviar357]

I bought that same trellis for my tomatoes but hated them for that usage. Took them apart and used them for my cucumbers. worked great. Those herbs look really healthy. Love the idea of the outdoor carpet. I'm going to steal that idea to go around my greenhouse. It will make it look much neater. Thanks for sharing

[@BrokeFarmer]

I have some more somewhere

[@baneverything5580]

I transplanted two bunches of green onions my sister got for me at the store and I planted a bag of the little red potatoes. When the onions bloom they make a bunch of free seeds plus I can eat part of the green tops. I`m gonna save seed potatoes from the ones I planted if they do ok. I planted some store garlic last November. It doesn`t look good but it`s alive. My soil is bad so I`ve been hauling in forest dirt in a garden wagon. One of these days I`ll have enough topsoil here. My test plants in the forest soil are doing pretty good but it will take time for healthy soil to develop. I add all my grass clippings and some chopped leaves and rotted stumps and logs to my garden and and around fruit trees and I`m slowly building rich soil. I have spinal issues from a car accident so I`m slow unless I got fresh meds or some alcohol. Be careful on these roads man. Lots of people out there can`t drive!

[@BrokeFarmer]

That forest soil has decades of nutrients

[@GtJrGrowsItAlaska]

One thing that's different between indeterminate and determinant potatoes is determined potatoes do not need to be hilled up they grow on 1 layer. Thanks for sharing mann 👍🏾💪🏾

[@BrokeFarmer]

But are the seed potatoes from home depot determinate?

[@GtJrGrowsItAlaska]

@@BrokeFarmer I wonder too. I have ran into a few varieties that are determinant. Wish I could say it may be on the seed potato bag but I don't think so.

[@ericataylor9063]

Doing great, Broke 😊

[@BrokeFarmer]

Thanks Erica

[@ChristinesBackyardGarden]

Loquat tree looks good. Glad you didn't chop her down. 😊

[@BrokeFarmer]

I was tempted

[@pescatariangardener]

I honestly hadn't thought about potatoes being determinate and indeterminate. Since we eat a lot of potatoes, I hope the variety I grew are indeterminate😊

[@BrokeFarmer]

I'm still figuring it out

[@farmermarshall]

Can't let a little rain slow us down! Nope...

[@BrokeFarmer]

Never!!

[@brotherzal]

Hey man! God recently blessed me with a position as a gardener! I'll keep it short, Thanks for your content man! I cannot put into words how enriching gardening can be for the soul/spirit. I came from your video covering the master gardening program & I am super excited to learn everything I can!!!! Big big dreams from a mending soul!! Wish me luck!! Maybe someday we can meetup & talk plants :D

[@BrokeFarmer]

Thank you, all the luck to you but if you enjoy it no luck needed!

Have yall gotten the rain? We got the 75 degree but the next day the rain started. I did up pot my peppers and put them in a small greenhouse I have outside. I am going to put my long beans outside next week.

[@BrokeFarmer]

At the end I planted my champagne loquat in the rain

[@harveycontainergardener332]

Hey Broke...It sure looks like a beautiful day, great day to get work done. Trees are looking great.

[@deborahtheodore5407]

It’s still cold here in zone 8a Virginia. I am just gathering rain water and planning my garden.

[@BrokeFarmer]

You will definitely be ready

[@baneverything5580]

Man I hope we don`t get a freeze. I just put about a dozen fruit trees in the ground in central Louisiana. I tried planting a store bag of sweet peas. Not enough sun here because of pines until April. I planted my first 4 (I accidentally broke one and it didn`t survive) Dwarf Everbearing Mulberry trees this year and some Pineapple Guava and 5 more fig trees. My fig tree from last year is putting out leaves fast so I fertilized it and the blooming wild blackberries. I just got a 2 gallon wine making kit. WOOO HOOOO! I hope I can get enough fruit planted that the wildlife can`t get it all but there was enough blackberries last year.

[@BrokeFarmer]

Blackberry wine sounds good

[@maryellensunflowergirl8132]

Nice planting Broke. Great job.❤

[@BrokeFarmer]

Thank you!

[@livingnatural55]

Great garden update. Love the harvest!

[@BrokeFarmer]

Yeah container worms! That’s some good soil. And that oregano is boss. Bees love the flowers and you can still pick the young leaves for seasoning. 2 for 1 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🍃🐝

[@BrokeFarmer]

First time growing oregano, can't wait to see the results

[@mygrannysgarden]

[@GardeningwithBernie]

The birds are requesting a shoutout! I love that outdoor carpet and your seedlings look good,😊 I want to plant a loquat in my garden-it’s hardy in my area. Thx for the update 🪴

[@BrokeFarmer]

Some varieties are more hardy than others, them birds better shut up and eat the Japanese beetles 🤣

[@caliBornbEauty]

I did a similar thing with the little trellises from dollar tree. I attached them to each other and put them in my raised beds. Great Job Broke!

[@BrokeFarmer]

That is awesome!

[@Psalm.146]

I didn't know that there were any indeterminate potatoes. 😲 That sounds like it would be great for your area, but I wouldn't know when to harvest if the plant doesn't die back on top.

[@BrokeFarmer]

I'm confused too

[@UNBIASEDLLC]

[@BrokeFarmer]

Yes it was!

[@keyphabenyisrael3219]

Hey cuz, I have those same red trellis/cages I got from Lowe's. I've been using them on my snap peas for years now. They're just a little too wide to fit the way I want them to in my 17gal buckets, but they do well for me in rectangular totes. Those herbs look good! I thought my thyme and oregano (greek and italian) were going to overwinter for once, but now I'm not sure so I need to sow more seeds. I got the everbearing mulberry from Logee's in 2021 and it survived the winter in 2022, but died in 2023. I am a little bitter because at the time of purchase they claimed it was hardy to my zone, but on their website now they say it's hardy to zone 7 not 6. Even years later I'm tempted to complain to them about the misinformation they corrected.

[@BrokeFarmer]

Complain, it's worth it to find out

[@Mary_GrowWithMe_1964]

The only determinate thing I've ever grown was a tomato plant. I didn't like it because it was a one time harvest deal. (ya get more from a indeterminate) 🍃Thank you for bringing us into your garden today💛🍃

[@BrokeFarmer]

Me either until someone mentioned it

[@Jayslifeoutloud]

One thing I love about me is once you've been once you put it in the ground all you got to do is make sure you water you can wear that heavy and then leave it alone for a couple days then come back water heavy and it will just keep growing and keep growing

Hey fam coming from Growing with Hudson ❤️

[@BrokeFarmer]

Welcome!!

[@Green_Sweep]

Determinate and indeterminate works just like the tomatoes. Plant an indeterminate potato and you can keep adding soil and the potatoes will grow on the stem as tall as the potato vine grows. Determinate will give you a certain amount and grows at the roots.

[@BrokeFarmer]

Thanks but are home depot seed potatoes determinate or indeterminate

[@Green_Sweep]

@@BrokeFarmer more likely are determinate. When you pull your potatoes from the plant, you will definitely be able to tell based on the location of the potatoes that grew. Determinate on the roots, indeterminate along the stem.
