Start saving milk jugs and cut the bottom out. When you plant your tomatoes next year, put a milk jug over each of your tomato plants and let them stay until you are sure the cold snap is over. The tomatoes love the warmth in the jugs and any frost will not damage the plants inside. When the tops of the plants grow out the top of the jug, it's probably time to take them off if you are sure the cold is over. We have had to rush out before dark many times in Central Alabama to cover our tomatoes when we are expecting a cold snap with frost.

Becky, you make me smile & remember how I felt every time I'd see something growing in my 2.5 acre garden. I remember eating some of my harvested items just as I picked them, like you do. You make me feel young again & I get so excited when I see your face lihgt up when you spot something in your garden to show us. You make my days brighten & I catch myself smiling & rememvering days long past. For all the smiles you give me & others, I thank you & thank you for all the gardening tips you share with others who are working their own gardens/farms. You are a very special young lady & I'm so glad I found your channel ❤ ❣ The energizer bunny is envious of you 🤭😄👍❣ Much love❤ & prayers 🙌🙏from S. Florida🏖 ⛵ 🏝 ☀️🌦🙋‍♀️

Hi Becky, I know this is an older video, but I just want to let you know that i am soooo inspired by you and your garden - so much that I am creating my own beds like yours on my newly bought farm! My goal is to grow food for me and my boyfriend, kind of self-substainable and I also want a booth down by the road to sell my flowers, fruits and veggies! (very common summer thing to do in Denmark) My farm has 50 fruit-trees (plums, apples and pears), and I am learning so much from you and how you garden. I am so impressed by your knowledge about gardening and I strive to be like you with my garden, :)

I have a little story for you. I have several Jack-O-Lantern pumpkins growing out in my garden, however, originally I never planted them. I had 1 random pumpkin come up in my flower bed the first year I was in this house 5 years ago. I saved the seed from it and now the seed that I have every year is all from that original 1 pumpkin that I never planted and did not even have seed for. So these pumpkins likely came from a bird. You can pack and can pumpkin puree from Jack-O-Lanterns as well and it's just as good as any other.

In Spain we grow luffas and we get a looooot of heat in the summer, like 40°C I think it's 110F, so maybe they need lots of heat. Epic Gardening has a KZbin video about luffas, maybe it can help! And what you say about the tomatoes and the bush beans, it might be because beans fix nitrogen into the soil and tomatoes loooove that

All of my tomato cages went completely horizontal during a big storm we had about two months ago and in a feat of epic laziness I decided to just let the plants stay down since the plants were already pretty big. They have been producing wonderfully and require little effort from me so I consider that a win.

Your garden is looking great. Last year my tomatoes really struggled with the heat and wind that we get in Missouri. This year I decided to let them sprawl. I planted 2-3 of each verity at the end of each bed. They have sprawled and set roots into my wood chip paths. I already have about 30, 1/2 pints of tomatoes in the pantry.

Cabbage growing tip: my grandma used to always take one of the cabbage leaves from the outside of the plant and lay it on top of the head as it grew so that bugs would not burrow or eat into the head. Works like a charm! Loofa will grow anywhere if it’s nice and warm… Unfortunately they take forever to get going. I start/plant mine in the greenhouse every year… by this time they are just starting to grow LOL I am zone 3B northern Canada

For your labels, wash and save your dairy containers. Create a template 3/8"-"-3/4"across, 3"-6" long, with a point on one end which is f,at across the other. Use a Sharpie type perma-mar,er to trace your template around the outside of your dairy container and expendable or garage scissors to cut your plant markers out. Optionally, use an expendable hole punch (or a nail setter punch over an expendable piece of wood) to out a hole in the end for suspending on a trellis. Use a Sharpie or Ultra-fine perma marker to write your plant name etc...9n the white side. For a little more cost, contractors flags are pretty quick and easy to use as plant labels. Use the different colors to color code your garden. Use Sharpies to write in tne flags and keep the text to words you're willing to use through years 2 to abiut 5. They make a bright garden u til the foliage grows; and after dele ding upon the height of your folliage.

I am amazed by all you've done!! Do you ever sleep?? How much produce do you have? So much work to preserve it all. You really never cease to amaze me with everything you achieve. " If we have time I'll harvest it this evening..." . Just love you Becky your great, you inspire me and now my daughter, the ideas you've given us for the freezer and the garden and storing in general. You've got me re-thinking how to improve my pantry, yep I have one have instilled in my daughters the importance of having one. Like you it got us through the pandemic ( well at least the 1st bit) I haven't grown anything for a couple of years due to my health. We had a home invasion 12/21/2019 by a man with a hand axe, who assaulted us 3adults,one 13yr old and a 2yr old. We fought back and he was shocked that two 60yr olds had any fight at all. As you can imagine it certainly knocked the stuffing out of us but he was caught, we're still waiting to go to court. Since then we've not been productive indoors or in the garden, which he trashed. Yep, we actually know him ( thought we did) he wrecked the garden November 2019. What I'm trying to get to is you've actually achieved some motivation over here in England. My husband has watched bits of your videos and it's given him the impetus to start planning things again. So, from the bottom of my heart I thank you so much Becky for coming I to our lives. All of us involved have/are struggling with day to day stuff in it's entirety, you've bought some light back into it. I can't thank you enough. I'm so happy to have found you and bulk watched to catch up...worth every second spent. Such a gift. God bless, keep up the good work. Take care and keep safe. Much love Lesley-Ann xX

Last year I also lost track of what was what in my garden in terms of varieties, so this year I put some effort into making labels. I use plastic yogurt containers, scissors and a sharpie pen. I cut long narrow rectangles of the plastic, fork one end and write the variety on each label and it’s been super helpful from when I started my seeds to now. The plastic labels are durable and can be re-used next year too. No more forgetting what I planted!

They must absolutely LOVE where they are because they’ve spread to a 75’ diameter and I have about 30 pumpkins in various stages, and still blooming! I am not new to gardening, but this is My first year to grow pumpkins.

I've been homesteading for 38 years and I'm still learning. I just discovered herb salts.take 2/3 fresh herb to 1/3 sea salt.blend until it resemble s course paste ,spread on parchment paper and dehydrate. When completely dried pop in the blender and blend till very fine. The color is beautiful, the flavor is amazing. I use basil salt on cherry tomatoes cut in half and sprinkled with the basil salt and I dehydrate them ...oh my what a tasty snack . You can soak them in olive oil ,like sundried tomatoes. Just another fun way to enjoy your harvest.

I learn so much from you as you pack so much information about your different varieties of plants.. all your thoughts on what you have planted ..for a beginner u really know so much about your garden. I’m so excited about your upcoming patio garden of planting in small areas ! I definitely am looking forward to that because that is the way I have to garden. I’m physically challenged so I can’t do much at a time because I start hurting too bad ..but I love to garden and it’s so contagious watching your videos because you get such a delight in planting and then getting to harvest and I’m the same way even if it’s a single little tomato on the vine it’s thrilling when all the work and time u put into it comes to fruition! It’s so exiting to watch as you go through your garden as you explain so much and it helps us learn as you are learning your garden too! Do you keep a journal on all your garden information ex like next year I’m going to plant this bed entirely with such n such beans .. I would forget by next year if I didn’t write it down. Ha . But I love all that you do on your channel but going to the garden and doing stuff there is my favorite,so much fun to watch, canning , putting up your harvest in any way shape or fashion that you do , and cooking ! Great video ! I grew my first butternut last year when it just came up as a volunteer plant .. I could only tell it was a type of squash so it was so much fun watching it grow and find out what it was going to become! BTW It was delicious! Thank you for motivating us to get out there and garden! Blessings!❤️

Sometime, check out "sweet beet pie". Tratitionally winter overed beets were shred, cooked, riced, and whipped with the cream; or as a mid-winter fresh from the garden treat. It was also used to use up canned beets in anticipation of the current year's food prep season...I had it once with orange-pickled beets which was thickened up with cornstarch or maybe tapioca; I was a little kid so taste and texture were most important to me, not how but what. - it does taste best with small, fresh spring beets harvested for thier greens; and likely to thin the garden.

I have three tiny raised beds, some pots, and another patch on the side of the house that I'm just starting to plant as a bee garden, and that's plenty of work for me! And even in that tiny amount of space, I have three volunteer squashes and a tomato that can only have come from my compost, so I'm super curious to see what comes of them. Thanks for taking us along in your garden as it's growing!

I have three pumpkins starting to grow from my surprise pumpkin patch! I’ve made sure to water them tons. I also love seeing how many bees 🐝 have been hanging around.

You will love your blue lake green beans. We had six rows prob 25 or 30 foot long and we canned 120 quarts off them plus they were picked 2extra times by my husbands aunts once we were done with them. My favorite. My kids while picking loved to see who could pick the longest beans

Your garden size is my dream. I’m having to pull out summer crops that are still producing, in order to have room for the fall crops that will live all winter under covers where I live in zone 6b. I plant a lot of lettuce, leeks, greens, carrots. In your zone you could definitely have salads and greens to sauté all winter if you cover them. I just cut pvc pipe to make hoops for the covers to go on top of. It holds up lots of snow off the plants.

Your garden is beautiful! I'm just north of you in the Seattle area, and I have had a really bad time with my squash this year. I have had to hand pollinate every single one. Just a real bummer compared to previous years. It is like the bees are just not interested in the squash when they have so many other options. Maybe I need to start beekeeping!

Try putting a big pot of lavender amongst your corn to get the pollinators there.

I’m impressed that you are able to have tomatoes so late in the summer. My tomatoes are still very green. I’m concerned they won’t ripen befor the freeze

I have a suggestion. Maybe you could build raised beds next year where your tomato 🍅 trellis is already ... to give that wonderful area better soil. Much much love 💕. Your content is so fun. 😎

For your potatoes - look at what are called "potato stacks". For an experiment, begin with a square tomato cage and line it with a King bed sheet, burlap coffee bean bags (in hindsight, there are reasons to look for organic coffee bean bags), or the sides of card board boxes which just fit inside your square cages. Slough the 3dges of cloth based items down the sides. As the potato tops grow, add your cloth or box based sides in about 12" (or 18") tall increments, then add dirt or growing medium. The buried greenery roots up then grows more potatoes. To harvest, you topple your tower and go from there. - if this suits your fancy, you can drift to locking/ fastened wood frames; diy of course but you amy be able to buy them. Others use repirposed metal items but, they can be burned to kill eggs and larve like the dreaded potatoes battle or potatoes fly. Metal culverting of one type or another is a favorite. Metal can get hot in tne heat; cloth and cardboard can get dry and even wick (or suck'cause it sucks) moisture out of dirt or growing medium.,
