Wow, everything looks amazing but what you’ve had to deal with and I just love that your children appreciate and how they’re learning how to cultivate and harvest their own food. I love seeing that. Thank you for sharing and stay blessed. ❤Go on with your green thumb.

Well, congratulations to Tara on her graduation. You didn’t share her graduation, but I know her celebration was wonderful. Sorry your garden got messed up from the storms. But I know you’ll get it back together.

Yes, the bugs are attacking everyone's garden in Houston. We lost all of our Brussels and almost all the squash. Do you know how to keep the bugs out of the grow bags we have potatoes.

No I don't. Sorry

I love watching your videos! I might have to check out that comfrey at Enchanted Gardens, because I've been searching for a local nursery instead of getting it shipped to me. And don't worry, you're not the only one who lost your squash plants to borers. I was only able to get two Crookneck squash from mine, before they died. There's a gardener on YT who mentioned she injected BT (insecticide) into the lower stalk of her plants to combat the squash borer larvae from killing her plants. I might try doing that when I plant them again in the Fall.

The summer heat ain’t no joke ! Sigh all I want to do is stay inside already! Thanks for sharing. I am ashamed of my garden this year nothing has bloomed for me !

Lol me too.. I just want to stay in the a/c

@champagnegardening5182 8 ай бұрын

This heat has been stupid. I pull my plants completely from the greenstalk. Roots don't break down quick enough. Try growing squash in the late summer early fall. That what worked for me here in Florida. Good luck with summer gardening!

@HelenH 7 ай бұрын

Yes I will try again around September..I was so upset. This heat came quick this year

@tessmackey9201 7 ай бұрын

I think that's a great idea I'll try in Sept or October we been in triple digits for weeks now I'm on South Florida too

@tessmackey9201 8 ай бұрын

Heyllo Helen I share the same heat here in South Florida...Its been sooo hot in the triple digits as well.I did plants tomatoes,beans,peas,ookra,(lemon cucumber burnt up)...I just keep dropping seeds but at this point idk why

Helen Everything looks so good!!! It's so slow growing over here on northwest side. I think my growbags need more fertilizer do to All the Rain. I still hanging in there. I also need to treat yard for snakes. There's alot to always do. Hang in there Helen.

@HelenH 7 ай бұрын

Yes I have to feed the grow bags more often than anything else.

You have had the tent less than 30 days. Maybe you can look into returning it, or if it was purchased on a credit card, some companies will refund for broken products if the manufacturer won't.

I picked it up from JoV's. It has already hit the curb lol... I just need to stick with umbrellas. Our storms are so unpredictable

Nice garden tour.. I definitely understand that heat is no joke, especially July and August. I'm in zone 8b Ga. What's your grow zone?

Hello Helen, what did you do with all the old soil that you took out of the towers? How did you dispose of it?

@Ms.Byrd68 7 ай бұрын

'Skin so Soft'?! WOW! A blast from the past! You can still buy it from Avon? Does it still work?

@teniaosayande6355 8 ай бұрын

It was a definite help to me who's just getting started. Loved the idea of the cucumber trellis thing. Had a day off and got outside yesterday & that sun is no joke. Does it make a difference if you do things like watering, pruning, etc. later in the day?

@HelenH 7 ай бұрын

I just try to water before 7am. With the heat the water will dry up before it hits the roots when it's hot.

Hello Helen…I’m interested in growing ground cherries too! Yours look healthy and seem like a good variety to try and grow. Would you mind sharing the name of the seed variety you are currently growing?
