Thanks for the schooling, as usual you guys are the Pros in homestead. God Bless 🙏🙏🕊️✨🔥🔥😇❤️

[@meanqkie2240]

Those shiny brown pupae are white moths up in Oklahoma. We had a gallon glass pickle jar when the kids were little called The Wonder Jar for this very purpose! Find something unusual, put it in the Wonder Jat and wonder what will come out! We put a couple of sticks inside and a piece of screen over the top with rubber bands.

[@stellasingleton7640]

Danny and Wanda, thank you for being here to watch. With all the horrific news everywhere, you guys are a joy.

[@juliekingston3525]

Squash vine borer pupae is what those redish brown things are. This is the reason we let our chickens in our garden area over the winter, they will dug them up and eat them.

[@marjoriedanley6131]

Oh! The dreaded squash vine borers! I started trying to grow a vegetable small garden last year and my squash plants were just beautiful, then all of a sudden they were dying. I then learned why. I grew some squash in a different place and the same thing happened. I was sick because we all love yellow squash. Do you, or anyone else, know how to keep the vine borers off them?

[@mistymountainmiss]

Oh I hate those darn things. Thanks for sharing info, I've always wondered.

[@brokendolly6967]

My grandma used to dig out dandelion root with a hand tool like that.

[@patricacompton9603]

Those little things you found in the soil are the pupal stage of the squash vine borrers. They will hatch and eat your plants....

[@willie9767]

We enjoy your show

[@ericschmitt8509]

Great video. I hope to have a homestead in the future. I want to use a high tunnel as well. The world needs more people like you and your family!!

Maybe you could let your chickens loose in the high tunnel to dig up the worms before you plant.

Your dirt is beautiful. You should have lots of sweet potatoes this year. As for the ornamental ginger it is gorgeous when in bloom. So happy to see you back at work in your Queen Dome.

[@charmainemontgomery582]

Can’t wait for the tour when everything gets planted & popping up 😊

[@junkinjodi]

Miss Wanda, if you keep talking to Mr Danny he's going to have your whole high tunnel cleaned up for ya, lol.

[@monkeyfoodgarden]

So happy to hear that Ms. Wanda is feeling better. Well Mr. Danny I get the outside field and my wife has the greenhouse. I just stay out of the way and don't ask questions, just the labor when needed for the heavy lifting LOL. Looks allot like a cabbage worm pupa. Thank you for sharing and wishing all y'all a blessed day.

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

We found out it was a cut worm pupae

[@sengelmohr]

I got 6 new tubs filled with soil & ready to go & I got sweet potatoes put in the dirt for slips today. I'm ready for spring to get here. It's gonna be in the 70's this week here in SC & it's just a tease. 🤣

[@marjoriedanley6131]

Can you buy sweet potatoes from the store, and plant them for the slips? Yes, I’m a newbie, small scale, gardener trainee. Lol.

[@sengelmohr]

@@marjoriedanley6131 yes I have grown slips from store bought sweet potatoes. Not sure if it's the best way but, worked for me. I'm now using sweet potatoes from prev. year. Good luck & we are all still learning. 👍

[@marjoriedanley6131]

I just love watching all Danny and Wanda’s videos. It doesn’t matter what the video is about, but I’ll watch it. Lol. This might sound strange t some, but it’s almost like they are my friends. Very good, salt of the earth people.

[@JoanHorner]

If you look at it very closely on redish brown cacoon if you see wings or trumpet shape on the cacoon is a tomatoes hornworm when come out it will be a moth if not it something else.if you grow tomatoes if you get tomatoe hornworm check 2 or 3 feet from your plant you will find the cacoon. Good luck

[@saddleridge4364]

Danny, I searched by what that red thing looked like. It's called a variegated cutworm. They showed the cutworm, curled up like the one in your hand. AND they showed the red larvae and it was identical to those red things you picked out of the dirt. ALSO... youtube sent me a feedback on this very video, of course I gave it good words!

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Thanks.

[@gmaster716]

Danny!! mix in a lot of bags of diatomaceous earth and insect frass to kill the worms and larva!!!

[@NatachaKemp]

Glad to see both of you feeling better. Your garden beds look great.

[@LittleOcasioHomestead]

Good afternoon 😊 I just can't wait to get planting but its still to cold

[@Luv2Garden2]

I love the knowledge of experienced gardeners. Thank you guys for helping us new gardeners to learn. I love watching you guys ❤

Yes, ma'am Wanda, a lot of work there. So happy to hear that you're feelin better . . . . .makes my heart joyful! Xo

[@solideogloria3111]

Sweet potatoes are wise. Healthy, calories, love the heat from the tunnel, hardy and stores til the next season. One of the best crops we should be planting

[@rnupnorthbrrrsm6123]

I live in northern Minnesota zone 3 and no matter how hard I try, the season is not long enough :( I’ve heard there is a breed that doesn’t grow so much foliage and puts its energy into the potato but I haven’t found it yet.

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

[@vickisavage8929]

This is a good example of the work that goes into growing a crop. It’s MUCH MORE than just throwing seeds at the ground.

Thank you for providing such a wonderful and helpful channel world needs more people like yourselves

[@usbpphillips]

Bennificial nematodes will kill those grubs/cut worms. We had them pretty bad in our high tunnel until we tried the nematodes. Haven't seen one since. The other looks like an Owlet moths pupa. They are the pupa stage of the cut worms.

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Yes that's it.

[@marybethham4967]

We got 4 new raised beds 19 inches deep and can’t wait to get them, fill them and plant and watch things grow. They are 80 x 40.

[@Epona52]

Those look like the pupae of cutworms (there seem to be quite a few varieties) - they vary in color from reddish brown to a dark brown.

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Yes it is.

[@Pausereflectandbreathe]

That’s the larvae of squash vine borer I think. I had those in my raised beds too and they kill my squash every year.

[@MsCindyh]

Agree

[@nolagirlhomestead]

​@@MsCindyh I gave up on squash and zucchini altogether. Not worth the disappointment 😞

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

It's a cut worm pupae

[@AlleyCat-1]

I love watching you guy's. 🥰🙏😊

[@waydownyonder8446]

Great idea about the sweet potatoes. It gets so hot in my high tunnel during summer I let it go. I think I'm gonna try Wanda's idea.

[@teenagardner3623]

Coastal SC here. ID say vineborer pupae. This past year I had many beautiful squash plants, bees were working, etc. Then my plants would look wilted. It wasn't water/temp issues. I found at base of plant evidence of being eaten from inside out. Like an ant does soil. Grubs and mole crickets I feed to my backyard blue birds, wrens and Robin's. I like them to stay close cause they get bad bugs all season😊. I sware they get excited when I'm getting beds prepared

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

It was a cut worm pupae.

[@teenagardner3623]

You know the tree roots may be why the middle bed is so dry. I'm having that issue in my raised beds now.

[@oops8985]

I have to avoid sorrel because of the OXALATE content. No more kidney stones for me!

[@ElderMidwife]

I made my raised beds in the greehouse of 2x12s for the extra depth.

[@lisamc2820]

Miss Wanda, girlfriend, it is SO good to see you out & about! The Lord is Good!!! ♥️

cutworm larvae, looks like that according to google

You two are so awesome!! Carry on-

[@nancygould6789]

The brown pupea are usually mature into moths

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Yes the cut worm moth

[@Gayle.M]

If you make those middle beds higher will they hold more moisture?

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Yes but they still will need more watering than the outside beds.

[@claudettehernandez3402]

Horsefly larva perhaps.

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Cut worm pupae actually.

[@grannygrump7425]

I hope she's doing better.

gonna grow two big beds of potatoes useing grass clipings to cover.. then two big beds of pumkings in wood mulch again , they did great last year , never had to water or weed.. still have pumkins. two big beds of vein tomatoes with leaf mulch , they did good last year , had to water them once and weed once.... then in my biger feild garden , corn , okra , and sweet potoes.

I wrong , I gonna plant it , the good God gonna grow it for me..

Pretty sure that's called a hand cultivator.

[@heysuz701]

Those brown things look like squash vine borers of some stage. I’m not sure if the stages, but I’ve found them after I had a problem before.

[@charlenequinilty7252]

Having same problem with the sorrel in my raised beds. Having to clean out.

[@cathyrose6388]

That is exactly what you said Danny. I’m getting to where I hate all bugs. Lol

Thanks Danny & Miss Wanda, Yes, fig tree roots are crazy. ours grows out more than 30 feet, grows up the bottom of my buckets and anything else that has water or nutrition. they are invasive. glad you found that. So glad Miss Wanda is feeling better. Many Blessings

[@davidward1259]

Danny those brown pupae are from the Tomato fruitworm (Helicoverpa zea). They also attack squash, cucumbers, etc.... This is also the same "worm" that we call the corn ear worm. It's just an all around pest in the garden. The chickens will love those and the grub if you find more. Google the Latin name for photos of the pupae and worm. You are likely only going to find the pupae near where a host plant was last year.

[@AlleyCat-1]

The beds along the wall are getting the water from the outside of the high tunnel. Whereas the inside beds, don't have that option. I'm always finding those grub worm thing's.

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

There cut worm

[@AlleyCat-1]

@@DeepSouthHomestead I couldn't remember, but they all look like a grub to me, icky & tasty chicken food. 😋 lol

[@barbararyan576]

I wonder if some of that moisture wicks in from the outside. Did you recently get some rain?

[@saffronbay]

I’m not expert on pests in the ground but definitely want to know when you find out so I know in case I see them in mine.

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

They were cut worms.

Might fine soil. Glad you're better Wanda. GOD BLESS Y'ALL!!

[@margiestephens7281]

Can you cut sw pot in half to get more slips?

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

No it will rot.

[@OhSnap-kb9vr]

The white thing is a grub worm. They typically damage lawns. Grub worms will eat the grass roots and any other roots of anything you are growing in the area. Definitely more than one in there too.

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

We have grub worms bad it is way different it was a cut worm.

[@OhSnap-kb9vr]

@@DeepSouthHomestead I grew up in a tobacco town. My grandparents once bought the remnants (unuseable tobacco scraps) to spread on the lawn and garden. Seemed to work at getting rid of all the bugs, but the initial smell of tobacco everywhere was kinda sickening, and no produce that year. Best wishes!
