Lol. I’m thinking about planting okree next year . Because it’s a pretty plant and I wanna try okree and “ okree” 😂 If it wasn’t for gardening channels I would just be growing tomatoes.

[@allenhickman5914]

I planted okree for the same reason. I'm a northern guy. I didn't have any corn meal, so I used a box of Jiffy mix... First after slicing them, I gave them a bath in buttermilk and egg...then rolled them in the cornbread mix and then fried them up. Oh, man! they were great. I also bought some crowder peas, but never planted them...maybe next year.

[@davesrvchannel4717]

An old feller told me, you take black eye peas or purple hull while in the pod and dried. Put them in a pillow sack. Wap it on concrete or hard ground few times. You can shell a whole pillow sack full in 15 seconds. The pea will separate from the shell. I didn’t grow any this year so you’ll have to tell me results.

[@LazyDogFarm]

Now that's a neat idea! Sounds quick and easy!

[@rhondabrown1148]

Pink eye is my favorite. Loved picking snd shelling them with my grandma back in the day. Way back. And we had a BIG pea field back then. Brooklyn is hilarious. “Bank of words”. 🤣

When I was 15 years old we got through with our tobacco early I mowed the stalks down and harrowed the field then broadcast peas and watermelons picked peas until the freezer was full and picked the watermelons and put them in the tobacco barn we had melon until Christmas

[@LazyDogFarm]

Awesome! Great way to use the land!

[@timfetner8029]

The popcorn likely looks and tastes like it does because of the variety. I’ve gotten some varieties at our Farmer’s Market that looked and tasted similar to what you are describing. The Pennsylvania Butter that I grew last year had almost no hull, was circular in shape, and had great flavor. It looked nothing like what most of us are used to seeing as popcorn, but it was good. Keep up the great work and keep these videos coming. I truly get excited when I see there is a new Lazy Dog Farm video!!

[@LazyDogFarm]

The photos I've seen of this variety from the breeders looks like standard popcorn. Not sure what's happening here. I guess we'll keep popping more to see if it changes.

I LOOOOOVE brown crowder peas. Probably because I like fresh green boiled peanuts so much. We used to grow lots of crowders up at our farm in Tifton. You'll probably need to throw some shade cloth over your chicken tractor in summer so they don't overheat and die.

@@LazyDogFarm Most all of your commercial farmers (corn and bean farmers) will have some sort of "moisture checker" too. Local Co-Op might have one too.

[@bigun9512]

I don’t know if you mentioned it but try to incorporate a couple eye bolts above where your feeder will go and hang your feeder and waterer on them with chain. Just have them like an inch or 2 off the ground. It keeps a lot of chicken poop and mud and such out of it and you don’t have to pick them up when you roll your coop. Also I wonder if you put some corn in a dehydrator for different times and tried popping it it might give you an idea if what’s to come.

They grow, bloom, have wee little pods that fall off and pffff!!! nothing! So, I'm trying them as a Fall planting to see if it makes a difference. Will get some tropical winds/ rains from Ida but should be just enough away for the garden to survive it.

If you add enough butter and salt onto just about anything you can get it up to at least edible. If it just won't pop no matter what, grind your corn up into grits and put your butter and salt on that. Chickens won't eat it if they have all those pea vines to peck at. You'll need to put that new sheller to work in any case. Are you comfortable that the Sevin will have degraded enough to not pose a hazard to the chicks? Pea curculio bug in case Brooklyn still thinks you just invented that to show off. Your videos make my day.

The organic stuff doesn't really work on the pea curculio -- trust me I've tried. So if that's a big issue, your best bet is to go to your local Lowe's and grab some Liquid Sevin.

[@eroggero]

@@LazyDogFarm ok thanks did pick me up some, will after the rains ( which is everyday) did notice them starting to flower still ok to spray 7 while flowering?

[@LazyDogFarm]

@@eroggero Should be fine. Just check the post-harvest window on the product label.

[@shirleyk623]

Is it too late to plant pink eye purple hull peas or cowpeas now in Central Florida?

[@LazyDogFarm]

Not at all. Go for it!

[@jerrygeorgopolis8015]

How's your back feeling after bending over to pick those crowder peas ? I picked my Derby bush beans and my back was feeling it ! Thank you both for the video. ps My Okra (first time) starting to look like a small tree !!! Looking forward to trying some. Take care, from Southern N.H.

[@LazyDogFarm]

Back is feeling better. Gonna take a while to rebuild the muscles as they're quite atrophied from not being used for 8 weeks. But we'll get there.

[@ladyryan902]

So? That lil door is low to the ground..how do you get in to clean it out?

[@LazyDogFarm]

We'll be moving this thing every few days around the garden plots. So it will sit right on the ground and there won't be anything to clean.

[@msjenjenp]

Boiled peanuts . . . gag. Won't be trying any Crowder Peas, then. LOL

[@LazyDogFarm]

Boiled peanuts are absolutely delicious! Come on!

[@msjenjenp]

@@LazyDogFarm I tasted some that someone at a Bluegrass Festival had and I couldn't believe how bad they were. Maybe he didn't know how to make them right. I'm not a huge black-eyed pea fan either, so It be don't think by I am cow pea material.

[@LazyDogFarm]

@@msjenjenp Might need to try some Georgia boiled peanuts. I can't imagine anyone not liking them.

[@mutantryeff]

I prefer coconut oil on my popcorn instead of butter. I found 'LouAna 100% Pure Liquid Coconut Oil' to be easy to use but it isn't cheap.

[@allenhickman5914]

Movie theaters used to use coconut oil when popping popcorn. I think it was really the best....then came the idea that coconut oil was bad for you and the movie theaters took it out. It was almost impossible then to find any in the stores... Now it's made a comeback and it available in grocery stores.

[@LazyDogFarm]

We use coconut oil too quite a bit. It's so good!

[@shelleygeary3205]

Will the Sevin spray hurt the chickens? Might want to rethink that

[@LazyDogFarm]

It should since it's been so long since it was sprayed. The residence time for it isn't that long.

[@RICHat22]

Did you just plant or vine them up some panels?

[@LazyDogFarm]

Here's the video showing how we planted the peas: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXOQqYColrF9htE

[@justacountrygirl8750]

Travis where are you getting your seeds these days? I’ve had a difficult time finding purple hulls this year.

[@LazyDogFarm]

I got these from Urban Farmer seeds back in the spring to early summer. I had a hard time finding some too.

[@justacountrygirl8750]

@@LazyDogFarm thanks for the info. I get my garlic from them. I’ve successfully grown hard neck varieties even though I’m zone 8b. I put them in the fridge when they come and plant in mid to late December. I’ll see if they have any. Southern Exposure Seed exchange is where I found speckled bush butter beans. .

[@jasonpowelliracing5481]

I have a question for you Travis, I already cut my garden this year and have some buckwheat a few inches high right now but am planning on getting a winter cover crop cocktail on it in about 2 or 3 weeks and was thinking about Frosty Berseem Clover, Tillage Radish, and Kodiak Brown Mustard, would that cocktail work together? I was kinda afraid the Radishes might smother out the other, what do you think about the cocktail? I'm in zone 6b.

[@LazyDogFarm]

I'm not sure I'd mix anything with the frosty clover. That stuff gets really thick and will probably stifle anything else. With that being said, I've never tried mixing anything with it. But I know my plot with it last year was so thick. I have mixed radishes and mustard with very good success.

[@LiberaTeTutemetExInferis]

Hey, when will you finally go live !

[@LazyDogFarm]

I don't know if we'll ever do a live show. Our "lives" are so busy that I'm not sure we'd have time to do it consistently.

[@121hearc]

thats terrible about the muscadines im in central Georgia they grow wild everywhere here picked about 10 gallons this week getting ready to make wine out of them

[@LazyDogFarm]

They grow wild down here too. I just wasn't thinking when I was on a pruning tirade last winter.

[@gailpetchenik3048]

If u use aluminum instead of plywood it would b a lot lighter

[@LazyDogFarm]

Yes it would.

[@robinjones7463]

PECKERS 😂😂😂 and Indiana Jones 😂😂😂

[@LazyDogFarm]

Quite the combo!

[@tannenbaumgirl3100]

Why are you putting the nests so high....its OK for them to be lower, and it will allow for easier egg collecting. Important is that the roosts are higher than the nest. The 2x2 construction is pretty weak....you have to remember you'll be dragging and pushing the coop over grass and maybe peas, as you said, it's gonna get bent out of shape soon. But, now that it's done, just make sure everything is reinforced well to prevent it from coming apart.

[@LazyDogFarm]

Once it is sitting on the ground, the nest will be right at chest height for me so I can easily reach in there and grab the eggs. We won't be dragging it. I'll put ropes on both ends and we'll just pick it up and move it over a few feet at a time as we rotate it around the garden plots.

[@woodywoody5696]

Nesting boxes are to high. the chickens will roost and poop in the boxes. Keep up the good work.

[@LazyDogFarm]

Might just spend some extra time washing eggs. lol

[@THEGROWITS]

snakes cant thru that hardware cloth too

[@LazyDogFarm]

Didn't think of that!
