How to Grow Squash from Seed to MASSIVE Harvest

[@attibatti4281]

This is literally the BEST channel on KZbin. May the Lord continue to bless your family and your harvests 🙏🏻

[@robbolton1698]

The format of your videos is ideal! No one else shows start to finishing gardening like this. It's SO helpful!

[@judithcopeland6821]

Once again I can't express enough just how much I appreciate the time and effort that you put into making these videos. They are probably the best tutorials about gardening I've found on KZbin. I know you've mentioned in the past how time-consuming it is to have to piece these time clips together, but I hope you please keep doing it exactly as you have been, if at all possible, please. I'm a struggling gardener who is now retired and should have learned a lot more by now, but I'm grateful that I'm learning so much from these videos. There is no way I could ever say thank you enough. God Bless you....

[@gardenflower4114]

Judith above said it perfectly. Thank you for all you do for us.

[@horcemoton5766]

[@langstroth9334]

agree!!!!!

[@khamsibq]

Agreed

[@michelleperkins9886]

Yes indeed! It’s so clearly lyes out,without talking down to those of us “newbies!”

[@nownot6875]

If only people treated each other how they treat their plants this world will be 100% better. I love watching and learning all this great information. Thank you for all you do.

[@HollisNancysHomestead]

The world definitely could use some improvement ❤️

[@mysuburbanadventures9241]

Hi Hollis I like the notebook you keep you should make a book of it and sell it to us so we can go to it each year for reference. Fingers crossed 🤞 thanks 😎👨🏻‍🌾👨‍🍳

[@vickivee]

But it needs to be printed out as handwritten and hand drawn… Just like the one in the videos. 😂😂😂 No typing! 🎉❤

[@tomaitoe]

@@vickivee Yes! I love this idea.

[@alexisunderwood9192]

Yes!

[@lynnboyd6479]

Y’all are truly a blessing from God! As a worship leader in our church, I learned early on in the ministry God called me to to always give Him the glory and honor. I’m a native born Texas boy and I wish now, after watching your videos, that I lived closer. To God be all the glory all the time! Time for me to transplant my little batch of squash tomorrow.

[@apiecemaker1163]

You two impress me with your knowledge, your hard work, and your generosity. I really believe the Lord is pleased with the servants heart you both have. You are getting close to 500k subscribers so I can see I’m not alone in my opinion. God bless you both with strength and wellness to continue your journey. Thank you both for taking us along.

[@kathywifall6844]

What I really like---IT IS GOD being praised and loved!

[@jeaniemalone5304]

Thanks for the tutorial, notes, and sketch. They really help. I am learning so much from you guys. I have a mast cell disease, a connective tissue disorder, and three autoimmune disorders. I naturally love to garden and must learn the best ways to garden the easy way and the natural way due to my health conditions. God is using your videos to teach me and so many how to grow our own healthy food. I used to be a commercial farmer-a completely different animal, even though I grew squash, melons, tomatoes, and peppers. It’s a different world than backyard, natural gardening. Back then I loved showing up at the local senior center with free vegetables. I hope to be able to grow and share once again. I’m grateful for all you do! You truly inspire others to do good things.☺️✝️🙌

[@HollisNancysHomestead]

Thanks for Sharing. Blessings

[@lenayoung1497]

It is such a blessing to be able to watch Nancy and Hollis with little Bingbing tagging along getting some vegetables from the Earth. Hollis and Nancy always make you feel that God loves you as they garden. Love you yall... Continue to be blessed.

[@JoyAdele68]

Native Floridian here growing south of you in west central Florida and love your videos. It took me a long time to figure squash out...still learning. Today I learned about lime in the hole for repelling critters! This fall I planted 40 beautiful tomato plants (that I had patiently grown from seed) each one set on a raw egg (I have chickens) placed in each hole and wouldnt you know the next morning a racoon came in and ripped out every single one of my tomatoes to get at those eggs! I hope he had a heck of a belly ache! My tomatoes survived though. Thanks for the informative video, once again. We need more good FL growing videos because though its all I know its very different from everywhere else.

[@Sammiecakes21]

Yes the raccoons here a annoying. I’m in south Florida so please let me know how you deter them from your garden. Thanks

[@mousiebrown1747]

Using fish in plantings is also an old Native American way That soil looks sweet --. I’ve never seen so many squash per plant! Superb! Magnificent!

[@shenanigans8apeach]

How do you only have 5k thumbs up. Ppl should be ashamed for not smashing that like button. 👍👍

[@crystalbarr-xx1vd]

I just love these videos! Thank you so much for the time you guys put in to recording and posting videos to teach people like me that it can be done and to just do it. You two are awesome and very inspirational. God bless you!

[@southsidecarly7427]

Ahhh I love sautéed squash and onions🥰 What an awesome harvest! God bless both of you ✝️🙏❤️

[@nahnisjourney1406]

Hello from Coastal Georgia Zone 8B. I’ve been watching you two for several years, and I just love the way you two teach, using progression videos from seed to harvest. God bless you both for all that you do for others who are in need. I love seeing you two holding hands and laughing out loud. Be well and stay safe!

[@traciyancey6704]

[@rebeccajones9735]

I took botany in college when I was studying to be a teacher. Learned all about plant parts, etc. It was my all time fav science class. At the time, my dad had 36 acres of gardens and orchard in Brunswick Co., VA. He got great enjoyment from watching things grow and selling his produce to people going to Lake Gaston.

[@TheBullsGarden]

Hollis and Nancy, I love you’ll so much. I been watching and learning a great deal from both of you. Your love of the Lord and each other is a blessing. Thank you for all you do God bless

[@Hookedonfaith-akasandramoody]

I don’t know how anyone can say anything negative about you guys or your methods and techniques. You are two of the kindest people on the tube and well, as for methods, as the saying goes the proof is in the pudding. And that sure was a lot of “pudding “ on that table. Love and God bless.

[@HollisNancysHomestead]

LOL. Thank you Sandra. Yes ma’am, there seems to always be a few haters lurking around on the internet. It does not bother Nancy, she just laughs them off but for me for some reason it sometimes hurts my feelings and I pushback a bit. Nancy doesn’t like it when I do that. Thanks for watching and especially your kind words of encouragement. Sometimes I need that👍

[@GinasBeautyReviews]

Holy “Kow,” that’s some nice squash!

[@kandimccann9055]

I would love to spend they day with you all. Thank you for sharing Joy with the world.

[@karenandriancontainergardening]

Hey Hollis. Great video, as usual, and with great information for us to have a successful garden.

[@sandylee8184]

Your videos are the highlight of my day, watching the Lord bless you so that you can pass on the blessing to others.

[@gloriatierney8501]

Thanks for your kindness and your ability to have patience to explain to us exactly what you do and then also show us. But I like to thank you most for the way you know how to share with the needy and the family and the neighbors let's not forget those. God bless you all and make the Lord give you plenty of health and plenty of harvest.

[@tx_s]

What a harvest!! Y’all are blessing!

[@michealinak]

The best teacher of gardening on you-tube. 👌 ☝ the 👍 work.

[@michaelcasey-ev8kg]

I'm in my 50s and I'm a beginner I have learned a lot from your videos Thank you so much...and your right seeing how to do things helps much more than just reading how to's books It's a huge help Don't ever worry about your critics you are a good man for sharing your knowledge and skills for all to learn from and this is a skill that we all need to know. I can't thank you enough for what you do .

[@HollisNancysHomestead]

Glad to help

[@jksatte]

Wow, I have never seen a squash harvest like that. Truly impressive.

[@brittanyfuller8723]

Awesome job you two 🥳. Hollis thank you for the pictures and step by step instructions (totally my style of learning). Thank you Nancy for the amazing editing you do to tie each phase of the growing process in captivating clarity. Starting my first garden with my kiddos this year because of your inspiration. Thank you both so much. I would love to see a freezer video showing how you do your freezer food storage 🥰

[@cynthiacarr2093]

Yes please Nancy👏🏾👏🏾❤😁😁 tyfs!

[@HollisNancysHomestead]

❤️

[@ginaeaton6680]

Hollis, I love you and Nancy! I believe some of you KZbinrs are "called" by God to help folks in these trying times, just like He "calls" some people to preach. People like me wouldn't be successful if it weren't for people like you! Thank you!

[@HollisNancysHomestead]

God bless you🙏

[@jaybatemen4497]

I get so excited just seeing that real gardening. My neighbor always gives me fish and I put them in my garden ground. Every year something wakes up in real gardeners.

[@heartsrenewedministeries5481]

[@davidangieshomestead5931]

These are the first videos i started watching when i got started about 10 years ago. I have used black cow ever since and works great. I have watched some videos 4 or 5 times or more for a refresher. Great videos very detailed. Thank you.

I agree. This is the best detailed gardening information that I have seen so far. I love that you have a notebook that you write down detailed information in about your crops along with drawings and share that with us. What a wonderful idea, & it's so neat & nicely done. You have a beautiful garden, & I'm truly happy to see how God has blessed you & Nancy with bounties of goodness.

Love seeing BingBing, too! 🌱🥰🙏🐶 👨🏼‍🌾👨🏼‍🌾💕
