Get to know a grower - Market On Twelve part 1

[@terrykingsallotmentgardening]

Hello Ryan, we always talk about our great Gardening Community and you have hit the jack pot with your friend so much new information for you to record for future reference, brilliant advice. 🥕Happy Gardening........🍅Terry King 🌻

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Hey Terry, I have found great comfort in growers of all kinds. The open-ness and willingness to share and exchange knowledge puts a smile on my face:))) I sure hope these vids don't get boring, because I am not going to stop doing them:)))

[@terrykingsallotmentgardening]

@@Mrsnufleupagus keep them coming so informative.

[@gretasgarden]

How wonderful of Suzanna to share so much of her knowledge and for you to source her out. Really enjoyed!

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Thanks friend! I will make it around to anyone that grows for a living and see what I can learn:))

[@gretasgarden]

Are you getting any of that snow I'm reading about Ryan😳😲

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

@@gretasgarden It is cold and rainy, and we should have snow tomorrow (double market day) or Sat. I am not mentally prepared for Winter pal...I hate this time of year.

[@UrbexSniperHunter]

Like #40 👍✅☺️ great Video, thanks Best regards

[@Bellavanacoffee]

Great information all the way. Thank her for sharing all her knowledge. I am so excited to try brussels. Cant believe they can store so well! Even though we are 5 zones apart, I really enjoy your content my friend!

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Thank you Dani! Susanna is super nice and I am fortunate to have her as a local role model!! Get your Brussel seeds ready to start, that is a perfect winter crop for you!! Thanks again my friend, hope you have a great week:))

[@NicksAllotmentDiary]

Hi mate, that was such a cool chat with Susanna . She’s got so many different things growing. The colourful caulis looked great and she had some really sturdy sprout plants. I’m definitely going to look out for some BTK for next season as even netting my brassicas I’ve had quite a bit of caterpillar damage. Looking forward to seeing the next part buddy. Take care. Nick

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Lol, she has so much more than what you saw in that vid! I'll be trying the BTK for sure next year! We can compare results:))

[@threethousandpercent7919]

Lovely to see another great farm. What a wonderful lady.. and it seems that as the plants reach strong growth, the weeds don't hinder things that much. Very interesting information on the bacteria treatment for Cabbage Moth.

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

I could do these tours everyday Elly! Susanna is fantastic and very kind with her time!! I have a very different context than she does, yet those weeds give me nightmares of last year!!! I shall be trying that spray:))

[@bevklassen364]

Most enjoyable and packed with info!Great job! 💚💜💛💕💙❤️

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Thanks folks, it's always fun for me when someone wants to teach me a few things:)💕💕💕💕💕💕

[@mariecurrie7657]

What a fabulous woman! I love the fact that Susanna grows hundreds of times more produce in one season than most of us, but at the same time, is striving each year to better her knowledge & yields. A massive thank you Ryan, for taking the time to produce this video. And to Susanna too, who is so gracious & willing to share the ups & downs. I learned a lot this evening (I even took notes buddy!). July long eh?... Hmmmm... (I hope it hurts too!)

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Yes she is!! The line between gardener and grower is beginning to fog for me. I see so many similarities, yet obvious differences! Snow is coming my friend...stay warm:))

[@PlumBob]

Hello Ryan, I like Susanna's saying. " Enough hope to try again." Great visit, definitely a lot to learn. Don't work too hard my friend.

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

It is a great saying Bob!! Have a great day my friend:))

[@SouthpawDavey]

The white cauliflower that was passed would be great for pickles. had to go out so much information there man. made me laught about the if it hurt with the caterpillars lol I hope so too ;-) just finished the show great stuff. Looking forward to part duh ;-)

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Thanks Bruv, I love the time I get to spend with these growers:))

[@SouthpawDavey]

@@Mrsnufleupagus ;-)

[@giantdormouse]

Really useful information. Susanna is very knowledgeable and very generous of her to share her knowledge. Great vid, Ryan!

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Susanna is amazing and I owe her a few days of sweat equity!!! Thanks Mike and Jaws:))

[@DigwellGreenfingers]

I'm not going to say it Ryan LOL 🙂 They are some lovely looking caulis- WOW. Bacillus thuringiensis reacts in the gut of Caterpillars so it has to be ingested as Sussana says. You have to buy the correct variety for the pest you are wanting to kill - Bacillus thuringiensis var kurstaki (BT-K) is the one for brassicas. Great video guys - roll on part 2. Steve

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Lol, come on man, you know I love seeing other people's growing!!! I'd be so bad at the allotments over there!! Thanks Steve, that seems to be the variety that is available in the shops here. I had never heard of it, they need better marketing:))

[@DigwellGreenfingers]

@@Mrsnufleupagus I think what puts some people off using it is the fact that you have to have the critters on the veg first, they then eat it, they then die. So in some respects, the damage is already done. Miss a leaf, miss a plant or even forget to spray - devastation. Having said that I want to try it next year as I'm fed up with lifting meshes all the time 🙂

[@thelittlefarmersfarm5706]

The Bacteria tip is GOLD!!! Great meet and greet here Ryan.. Bless you for the share man! This woman is the patron saint of Brasicas

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Thanks Guru, it is a pleasure being able to work with Susanna and bounce ideas off of her. We swap out veg and greens thru the Winter for markets. Looking forward to whaat I shall learn from her this year:)

[@Growwiththelaplantes]

What a fantastic tour! This was so informative. I can't wait for part 2!!

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Thanks Patti!! I really want to do this with you one day:))

[@williamcolemansgardenandal9017]

That is very cool buddy, I especially like the way that she sells the brussel sprouts right on the stalks. I look forward to more of this tour.🍺

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Thanks Willie. I am well aware I am drifting a far distance away from allotment gardening. Yet, I am so excited to learn, I really want to keep the camera rolling!!

[@ltlbnsgarden]

Enjoyed the tour of her plants , it is so pretty. She had so much great information 😊

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

This series is getting a bit beyond gardeners, but I really love what I am learning:))

[@EssayonsFG]

Another educational spotlight, Ryan. Thank you for letting us see the process through your eyes a bit as a newer market gardener/farmer. Cheers, Rob

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Thanks Rob, been very cool to me that these growers are so willing to share knowledge:))

[@BenniLkitchengarden]

Very nice and interesting video, Ryan. I could walk in those fields for hours. In my head a cauliflower is white, but after seeing this, I am tempted to try those with color next year. Also interesting to hear about spraying with TB. I got a package in the mail today and I plan to grow brassicas without cover next year. The problem then might be the cabbage fly. Thanks for sharing this, Ryan and I’m looking forward to Part 2. Also thanks to Susanna.

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Lol, I did walk those fields for hours!! So much to see and so much information Susanna is willing to share! Please let me know how the spray works fo you. I am for sure trying it next year! Thanks Benni, have a wonderful day:)

[@BenniLkitchengarden]

I have bought powder to mix with water. It will work on the caterpillars from the butterflies and the cabbage mill, but I have to figure out what to do with the cabbage fly attack. The cabbage fly lays eggs that become larvae that eat up the roots of the plants. TB will not act on the larvae underground. Ask Susanna about that on occasion.

[@bethanskitchengarden]

Really enjoyed this episode about how Susanna grows, bet you have learnt a lot for your market from her. Great video, take care Bethan 😊

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Thank you Bethan! She is a great person to learn from:))

[@LearningCurveAcres]

Watched it with my notebook. Lots to learn, looking forward to the next one. Take care my friend - Marcie

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Oh my, so much to learn Marcie. I still feel kinda like I am running downhill....just laugh and try to keep up!

[@kath-phlox]

Fabulous video... every day is a school day, we all learn so much :)

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

So fun to spend time with folks I respect:)))))

[@PopleBackyardFarm]

Really nice tour. It was fun to hear about how Suzanne got into her business. new subbie here - Ruthie

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Hello Ruthie. Thanks for taking the time to watch, these local farmers are teaching me so much! I'll pop by and see what you are up to:))

[@mariannecanoofficial]

very informative video thanks for sharing this friend

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Thank you for watching friends:))

[@McDowallManor]

Thanks mate. Great clip! Susanna had a lot of practical advice too. Good one.

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Not my normal vid...this one had educational info, lol!! Thanks Andy:))

[@PrairiePlantgirl]

I love these videos you are doing with other growers. Very interesting to hear how they do things. Those brussel sprouts are fabulous! I need to give them a go here. I believe you can purchase BT at Peavey Mart, HD, Lowe’s, etc. I’ve never tried it yet, but I’m sure I’ve seen little bottles (home garden size) there. Anyway, so cool to see how all the market gardeners are open to sharing how they do things with one another.

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

I am very excited that these growers are open to having me there asking questions:)) We will both be trying that spray, by the sounds of it:))

[@mariecurrie7657]

The U.K. Brigade use the BTK & I'm heartened to see we can get it here.

[@mio.giardino]

Very informative! Thank you

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Susanna was very kind to have me there! :))

[@PappysCorner]

Wow bud I learned how critical the various elements of gardening can effect your crops. Your all up against attacks from every direction. It's a wonder anything will grow... One thing about you Ryan your channels growing...Lol... Love ya buddy.!!

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Dude, we have snow on the ground right now. I really need to move! Love you to bro;))

[@PappysCorner]

WTF man we were over 90 deg. here in Iowa. That's just to soon for snow. Good luck brother.!!

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Enjoyed the interview very much. The forecast said Alberta was in for some snow, did you get it in your area?

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Thanks Dale! We are to get it on Friday or Sat. At least we had Sept this year, kind of a novelty:))

[@trollforge]

Bacillus thuringiensis serotype kurstaki (Btk) is what she is using, (as opposed to Bacillus thuringiensis serotype isreali (Bti) which is used for mosquitoes and fungus gnats.) Both are available retail at crappytire.

[@Mrsnufleupagus]

Cool, thanks for the info Forgey!! I will be trying that spray next year:)
