I could listen to your dad talk about growing food all day. He has so much experience and knowledge about it. Oh your pepper trellis is actually called a Scrog, when it's horizontal it can be called a Scrog lol. Keep the videos coming.

[@tassiegirl1991]

Me too

What an amazing garden! I love the crisp lines! I feel close to the Lord when I am out working in my garden! God bless

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

Thanks for the very kind words! May God bless you!

[@AbelLocksmithPensacola]

We will definitely need a video for the winter storage of these things like the onions and carrots he's talking about. That'd be awesome

I just love you guys my brothers! ❤❤❤ So happy to find you thank you! God is only good. ❤❤❤

[@MichaelJosephJr934]

Very nice that you show that even skilled gardeners have pest issues. Many garden tubers don't show that messed up plants. Some of my eggplants were down to one good leaf and now they're bouncing back. Not sure if it was the peroxide spray or the pests life cycle.

[@Godisincontrol325]

Always a pleasure checking out your videos 😊🎉 Thanks for posting and always sharing your wisdom and knowledge 🙏 Have a wonderful weekend..

Blessings!

[@beckymartinez9926]

I love seeing everything so green and pretty. You are about 2 months behind my growing season. We are reaching almost 100 degrees now in N Tx. Really like the way your peppers look. It will be interesting to see if harvesting is a challenge. Thanks for sharing.

[@jlog7395]

Thank you for your videos. I am really enjoying watching your Dad’s garden. I saw the plumbing on the side of the greenhouse. Is that a fertilizer injector system? If so, would love to see more about that system and what OG fertilizer you use. God bless you all.

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

That is a AACT brewer.😁

[@juanitawierzba1536]

Could you do a tutorial on how to diy the evaporative cooler? Would love to do this in our greenhouse in South Africa😊

[@BalticHomesteaders]

I usually don't follow channels that have quite different climates to ours but I'm really enjoying your videos and wisdom there in. I always think my garden has the appearance of being weed free but yours is absolutely immaculate! Did you direct sow those smaller seed onions or do you always transplant? I really like how the drip tape irrigation system is working for you, I've been toying with installing it in our garden and might make the leap next year, both greenhouses already have it. I'm also researching evaporative cooling so it was nice to see your setup featured there. Thanks.

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

Yes the smaller onions were direct seeded,those are our storage onions. Drip is good in most cases but not in every case,blueberries do much better with overhead watering and so do potatoes, and I'm finding if you have very high organic matter the drip doesn't spread out very far, so consider these issues when deciding about drip. May God bless you!

[@BalticHomesteaders]

@@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork good tips there, thank you.

[@bubbles6124]

Everything looks beautiful. Thanks for all you do. I really enjoy watching. The weather has been really wonky this year. My Yukon potatoes aren't doing well this year. Usually I do well with those. Getting ready to check the purples. First time growing Okinawan Sweet Potatoes are starting to take off. I hope they do well. Same with tomatillos. I told myself that I would try something new each year. My raised bed isn't huge, just enough for me to handle easily. Have a great day. Looking forward to next time. 🙏

Curious what Storage onion you’re growing. I was under the impression the onions will let you know when they’re ready for harvest, and if you leave them in all the way to fall, they won’t store as well. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Your garden looks amazing.

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

I've grown Patterson for several yrs but I'm trying a new one this year,I'll let you know if it's any good this fall😁. My onions grow right up to first frost then that's when I pull them and store them. May God bless you!

[@Cherryparfait41]

I pull off some super harvests, but nowhere near as neat and tidy. You’ve added some wonderful systems for efficiency! Your setup for cooling the greenhouse is genius. Bonus level advantage! I thought it was hot and then we got swamped…beans and corn needed a redo. Have you at did you presprout your corn? Now that I can do it, I’m quite tempted. 😁

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

No need for me to pre sprout my corn as I have almost a perfect stand of corn,just one didn't germinate.

I never thought of growing cilantro like baby greens in the hot weather but I’m gonna try it now. Still in the 100’s here in Central Valley California October 1st.

[@allotmentjoy]

So nice to see Butch right next to your garden. I am following the progress of your tomatoes and styled my tomato trellis similar to yours. I heard that plain chalk stops blossom end rot on tomatoes. You are right about the weather up and down. I have tomato flowers but no tomatoes. It's definitely down to climate here in the UK. Thank you for showing us around. Elaine 🌱

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

Plain chalk will work, but is not as good as a good water soluble/hydrophilic gypsum. Did you see our video on stopping blossom end rot? 😊

I have been fighting the squash bugs and the squash vine borer for years...now, I find them in my cucumbers, melons and even potatoes. What is your remedy for these pest? I have even found squash bug eggs laid on a steel post! Horrible critters! I have approx 8000 sq ft of garden space and love to get a new solution to garden problems. I really enjoy your channel, it is so calming to watch you and your Dad. Thanks for all the hard work and sharing it with everyone...and I appreciate your acknowledgement of our Lord in your videos!

Hello, I really do enjoy the videos! So much knowledge to gain, spiritually and garden wise. The website looks good! I am going to purchase some items soon! I grew eggplants this year and in the past the plants are ravished by flea beetles. I grew Callaloo near the plants this year, and the flea beetles enjoyed that instead of my eggplants. I just had to mind the seedheads and cut them back before seeds started to fall...just a suggestion. My garden scripture is, ll Corinthians 9:6 God bless and keep you.

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

Great! Glad you like our videos and the website! Nice idea using the Callaloo as a sacrificial deterrent. Let us know if you have any issues with the website. The first orders are on their way (and I learned how slow USPS's home pickup is in getting packages into the mail stream. Now I know what not to do : -) I like your garden Scripture!

This was fabulous! Your Dad is so knowledgeable and I appreciate him giving us these tidbits of information as he goes along. Also, where can we find the radiator system for the greenhouse? How does things in there get pollinated without the bees?

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

I made the evaporative cooling system,I don't think that you can buy anything like it in that small of a size unfortunately. Pollination is done by me if it needs it,tomatoes and peppers and cukes don't need anything from me but squash does. May God bless you!

By doing weeding and doing no-till.

[@anthonyvharris]

The cooling in the greenhouse is a great idea. It’s dad’s idea? I’d like to see how it is constructed one day.

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

Yes it works good! I believe it's one of the most economical ways way to cool a structure. Huge chicken farms use the same technique. Maybe we'll do a video on that too! God bless you!

[@evoliveoil]

Can you do a detailed video on your evaporator cooling system?

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

We may in the future if there's enough requests 😊 thanks for the suggestion! Have a blessed day!

[@Doubledunk]

how do you keep the raspberries contained so well and not suckering all over the place? and what plant has those purple flowers have at 18:00?!

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

The round posts at the corners of the patch have heavy trellis wire (like vineyards use for grapes) strung tight between them forming a perimeter "fence." Just keep the canes inside the perimeter wires. Pretty easy. Happy gardening!

[@DoghomiOkitikpi]

More sir🎉❤

[@johnflanagan4419]

How do you preserve you various bounty?

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

Excellent question! We'll try to make a video about it in the future! Thanks for the suggestion!

[@johnflanagan4419]

I grew up with people who canned and pickled, mostly fruit. What other methods might you utilize? Besides freezing when and how is other cold storage accomplished?

[@wendyburston3132]

Great video. I found the pepper set very interesting but cannot see why it's necessary. I live in zone 5 Canada so maybe your longer growing season makes bigger plants?

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

My plants are already through the top layer of netting, so it seems like it's going to be very beneficial! Have a blessed day!

What do u do with all the cilantro you grow?

[@kellymahan861]

[@Perseverance4477]

Thats an amazing garden, absolutely beutiful and well kept. How does he keep the weeds out? Does he just stay on top of hoeing?

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

I don't do much hoeing actually, I do more bending down and pulling weeds to make sure I get the roots and I try not to EVER let a weed go to seed. The biggest help in keeping it weed free is no-till and drip irrigation. May God bless you!

[@anthonyvharris]

Thanks for sharing. I really like the mini farm. I am a bit envious of the space and water. I have a much smaller urban garden and in Southern California water is expensive. If you don’t mind me asking what part of the country are you in? Just the zone is fine if you like.

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

SE Washington state.

[@johnchapman3225]

Great looking Garden, How do you keep it so weed free? I battle weeds weekly.

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

The pathways are heavily mulched with wood chips. This helps tremendously. Only watering with the driplines in most areas prevents many weeds from growing as well. May God bless you! Happy gardening!

[@danielpowell6498]

I have a question. What is your rotating schedule. Do you leave plots to compost down or do you just rotate your crops? Northern Californian here zone 9

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

I do not do crop rotation, nature doesn't so neither do I, nature makes total sense, as the crop grows it's pulling up nutrients that it needs to produce a crop then it dies and deposits it back into the same place it came from so if you rotate your moving the nutrients from place to place instead of putting them back where they came from ready for the next season,I'll either use the spent plants as a mulch or I'll compost them and put it back on the ground. Have a blessed day!

[@danielpowell6498]

@@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork Thank you! This is another silly question. Then why top dress amendments? Are the nutrients the plant is taking more than what’s given back? Is it more for mineral content? IE peppers and tomatoes love calcium and phosphorus. So put those amendments back in a greater supply before planting next year.

[@danielpowell6498]

Sorry then if so. Do you top dress amendments once before planting or throughout the growing season?

[@GardeningHomesteadingWoodwork]

Yes.
