Hi guys! Thanks for sharing your favorites. I'm thinking about experimenting with growing horseradish. I know it is invasive. . .so maybe in a pot. I have already designed my garden. . .and color coded with a key. . . all on paper using paint and markers. Santa brought me some grow lights. . .Soooo, I will be watching your channel closely. . .as you are such an inspiration and wealth of knowledge!

My thoughts 🤔 Yellow raspberries, or Gold, are awesome. Sweet and makes a fantastic jam, and cranberry and gold raspberry chutney (pecans). Plus adds variety and color to a fruit platter. Boysenberries - I don't have any of these, but after looking them up, I want to try this year. Try blueberry plants in a container or raised bed (deep roots so at least 3 foot deep and wide). You can control the soil acidity and adding sulfur to help. You can put rebar with a handle in a few places around the plant. The roots will grow around it over the years. Each month, you can pull the rebar out and add the amendments and then, put it back in the soil. It is my family's favorite fruit from the orchard next to black raspberries. They continuously produce all summer long. A fresh from the shrub blueberry is the best and worth the extra work, YUM! I get really frustrated when the boys eat them all and I don't get to can very many jars. I added 6 more plants last year and impatiently waiting to see how many I actually need to satisfy the need. Plus, EVERYONE wants fresh blueberries, a HUGE demand on the market. If you have a hard time growing them, everyone else around you may have a hard time, hence, good sales. Strawberries are difficult for me for many years. I keep trying! Since you are in zone 7, try muscadines and scuppernongs! I can't grow them (zone 6a, but will try when the greenhouse goes up). But I LOVE them! Muscadine jelly is divine! Huckleberry, gooseberries, and goji berries are options.

I'm definitelyh going to try yellow/gold raspberries. Everyone seems to love them. I did wind up putting the blueberries that were still alive in large grow bags. I put in a lot of peat moss and some pine needles. I'll try doing other things that can acidify them. I'm going to give them 1 last effort. I have 4 that are still alive...but not very healthy. I've never heard of scuppoernongs. We haven't tried grapes yet because the spotted lantern flies have been pretty heavy the last 2 years. I'll make a note of those types of grapes. I heard someone else mention goji berries....I'll look into all of those. THANKS!!

I hate the squash bugs, too. I am always out there squishing them and their eggs. But it's worth it to get all of the great squash:) - I ordered four raised metal beds for this next growing season. I am waiting for them to be delivered. I am pretty excited about them. I have some homemade wooden ones that I put together but they are rotting through:( - Zinnias are MY favorite cut flower. And I love bringing in irises in in the spring. They just smell soooo good! Mom's favorite was carnations. - I use paper as well. I put my notebook on a clipboard. This way I can take it with me out to the garden. - I haven't had good luck with watermelon OR canteloupes here in Idaho. I gave up on them as well. - It took me a few years to finally settle on three tomatoes that I really love the taste of, that fruit a lot and that can handle the dryness out here. For cherry tomatoes, I grow the Supwer Sweet 100. Perfect size for my salads and plentiful. The two red tomatoes that I love are the Roma for canning and the Summer Set for slicing. All of them are red:)

Started collecting my seeds at the end of summer clearance and just did my order for the remainder of what I wanted to grow this year. I decided on the "Mexican Midgets" for cherry tomatoes (Seed Savers). It is touted as "great for market gardens". As for melons, I have had lame results and this year decided on only one which is pretty if nothing else. I got it from Baker Creek and it's called "Kajari". My husband gets tickled when I pull out the seed catalogs when there is still snow on the ground...but we dreamers (gardeners) can dream...right? I learned to wait to plant squash and cucumbers until June 1st via direct sow. By the time the plants emerge the squash bug season is over the worst and the plants have a better chance of not being eaten and I'm in Zone 6A (northern Michigan - Zone 5 but along the coast it's warmer 6A). Also plant marigolds EVERYWHERE in the garden at the end of the rows to deter the pests. Merry New Year!

Hello there! Tomatoes of different colors were always had to sell. When I managed a Farmers Market, we had samples of tomatoes that people could try. It was amazing how they sold afterwards. Maybe if you had a sample tray of the different colors of tomatoes people could try and then maybe they would buy. You could have a tray with a netting to keep the bugs out. Just a suggestion. We moved to Florida 9B, and I am having to learn to grow all over again. Just sand here. I always look forward to your videos. :)

If you watch the Veggie Boys channel, they had great luck with their tomato crop this year. They are located in Pennsylvania too and operate a farmer's market. Not sure what varieties they grow, but their seeding videos might say. The varieties of melons are very different here in Texas, so no recommendations.

THANKS! I've seen their videos in passing, but I'll have to check out some of them to see what they plant.

gold raspberry - so good, sweeter than the red raspberry

I usually do most of the planting, but sometimes I get help from family. Planting is the easiest part...then comes the weeding and then harvesting. I hire a teenager two mornings a week during the summer to help with those things.

Hmmm.....that could be a problem. It's very easy with red and black. I'll have to check into that before I plant them. Thanks!

Calendulas grow like weeds…are yellow or Orange & will come up voluntarily next year. They are happy daisy like blooms.

I forgot to ask how your nut trees did this year? I recall in a videos you were going to plant hazelnut trees?

The nut trees just went in last summer. Hopefully they will all make it throught the winter.

Heirloom seed for cantalope and watermelon are so much better and grow so much better . s fr as blue berries save your pine scraps and pine needles an lawn clippings to use for mulch for them, will make a huge difference. Tomatoes love lawn clippings s well. Strawberries cn be grown so much easier in 55 gallon drums , 50 to 75 plants per drum , easier to maintain and pick . Also try growing peanuts from raw peanuts from grocery store .

I'll have to check to see if the canteloups were heirloom. I they weren't maybe I'll try a plant or two of heirloom. I love canteloupe so I hope I don't have to give up. We don't have many pines around here, but I have friends with pines. Maybe I'll check to see if I can get some of theirs. I've never heard of strawberries in drums, but I'll check into that. Thanks!

Bachelor's buttons. Tomatoes that I like are beefsteak. Also don't use a tablet. You won't be able to see it outdoors. The sunlight won't allow you to.
