Saving The Garden From The HEAT While Succession Planting

The constant heat requiresd me to to be creative to complete shading the garden and look for more heat tolerant plants for succession planting. #selfsufficiency #blackeyedpeas #successionplanting #gardeningintheheat

Glad you enjoyed it... and thank you!!

Simple ideas are blessed, aren't they? I like your tree collards as well,

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

Yes they are! (haha) Thanks for watching!!

[@containingmygarden]

Nice work with your shade cloth. Congrats on your new banana plant. Happy gardening 🌞

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

Blame "Harvey Container Garden" She got me interested and it fell into my price range so I grabbed it!! (haha)

[@geriannroth449]

The birds & mice love Black beans too😊

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

Mine are black eyed peas but at this point with the heat I'm willing to take my chances. 😅

[@Teas.Louise]

Fabulous tutorial. I have done this with pvc and rebar on a raised bed and then ran chicken wire over the whole hoop. Planted cukes on one side- tomatoes on the other and bok choy and beets underneath. I love your voice narration, btw.

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

I really like the chicken wire idea!! I was just doing stuff on the fly to save my veggies from the sun and heat and the rebar was already there so why not use it.

[@gaylehay2323]

Well I appreciate you too…happy gardening 👨🏾‍🌾 🙂

Thanks for sharing this idea ,i also planted some black eyed peas with some corn but only three survived.. but i will be planting more.. new friend here from Growing My Own.

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

Good luck on your black eyed peas. Mine are doing well but my corn gave me a couple of ears and gave up so you are not alone. (haha)

[@nexingtoncaldwell6381]

Glad I just happened to come across your channel. I was dealing with this issue today, I had purchased a 4x50ft privacy fence shade two years ago that I never used. So I dragged it out today and it was a struggle in the heat trying to figure out how I was going to drape it. As I was trying to set it up, I noticed how much heat it held not sure if that is going to be a good idea with how I was going to place it. I am going to get some pvc today, thanks for sharing.

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

Glad it helped.

[@DriedMarigolds]

New subscriber living in South Florida. Where in Florida are you?

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

Northern FL and you guys are getting all our rain. It finally rained last night after a month of nothing but heat!!

[@brandimakes]

I'm in N Florida and I know it's been super hot! Your collards look beautiful. Do you irrigate?

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

I have a sprinkler system and a hand wand but I've ordered a drip watering system so we will see how that goes. This is the second year for the collards. Someone thought they were tree collards but I think they are a hybrid because they just said "collards" at the nursery . Either way, they just keep growing. 😅

Great Job Ms Cherrie! You gave me an idea to use old curtains sitting on the shelf for years

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

That is how I got the weed barrier. It had been sitting in my garage for two years. Way to go!!

[@guitarman5032]

great job

Hello lovely! Just subscribed to your channel. I’m in Arizona and it’s extremely hot. So I’m not gardening outdoors til it gets cooler. Love your video. 🌱 Happy Gardening 🤍

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

I hear ya and thanks for watching!! I put up shade covers and succession planted more heat tolerant veggies until it cools down here in Florida. And, as they say: At least yours is a dry heat.The humidity here makes the air almost thick!!

[@odaliabalbi5541]

🎉❤😊

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

Thanks!!

[@matthewstone7367]

Thanks for the update. There heat finally made it up to Boston this week and my tomatoes and peppers are loving it. I am curious if our peppers might benefit from some shading too

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

They love it if it is for a day or two but once it goes on day after day they become stressed. The shading has saved my garden because the sun is just too intense.

[@geriannroth449]

Depending upon how long your rebar is I'd wet the area first to soften the soil first before pounding it down into the ground

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

Thanks for watching and that comment

You should be in Scotland today. High winds, low temperatures, driving rain in the middle of summer!

[@sallycraig2730]

I meant to say good job! I’m holed up with a gin and tonic and heating on!

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

You are too funny🤣 I know I'm a McKenzie but I also understand why you guys have those heavy wood tartans. FL is a hot house during the summer but come fall you are glad to be here. 🤣😂

I don’t continue to plant. I’m going to plant in September. The heat is intense.

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

I considered that but I've gotten used to eating out of the backyard. Switching over to the more heat tolerate plants I mentioned has definitely helped along with the shading. The blackeyed peas came up the day after I planted them.

[@Extranjera76]

@@CherrieMcKenzie Yes. I know that. But in Puerto Rico all the year you can grow.
