I've let my Tromboncino squash spread out. I just did not have anything handy to have it run up. It has done just what you said. The old parts look terrible, but the ends of the vines look great. It also provides shade and cover to that bed, so not as many weeds in there. Best happy accident!

Golden Hubbard winter squash did incredibly well in my North Fl garden. Close to 250 lbs from 4 plants and if it wasn’t for the freeze, I think they would have given me one more round. It took a little while to get it going, after 2 months, it had overtaken an unused area and pathways.

Oh! I lived in Largo for many years, but my father passed away in 2019 and left me his house outside of Ft. Myers, FL. I do miss Largo/St. Petersburg area though and I have tons of friends there. When covid hit and they had me close my massage office; then I moved down here to Lehigh Acres, FL. I have a .25 of an acre so I am trying to grow a little veggies. The fruit trees I had last year didn't make it through the freeze, except for the Lemon that was still in a pot, so I could bring it inside. So, I am trying to stick to things that are easy to grow and keep to pots and raised bed. Down here it is closer to the Everglades, so that make a plateau of clay to put the houses on top. The clay isn't good for most plants. I like your ideas and you are from Florida. Many of the gardeners are from up north and they don't have a clue about growing in Florida. Thanks. For you very helpful videos. In loving kindness, Bonnie

Great video! Being from Southern California (Orange County) where we can pretty much grow anything in a home garden I have often wondered what goes well in Florida during the spring and summer with your daily deluges of rain and often very strong thunder storms. We have been to Disney World several times during the summer so I know what they can be like. Although you did not put these in your video, how to the typical summer crops (tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini, corn, pole beans, strawberries, etc) all hold up out there? With all that rain I would think the roots would just get waterlogged to the point or causing disease, fungus and rot. - Can you grow these types of crops at all? And if so do you need to put them in containers so the excess water drains freely away, and/or do you need to use well-drained soil such as cactus mix? Again - great video (I just searched for what kind of vegetables home gardeners can grow in Florida and yours was one that came up). A couple of the gardening channels I regularly watch on YT is “Garden Answer” - they are located on the Oregon/Idaho border and are about a Zone 5 but actually have similar summer weather to So. Calif. being that are of Oregon is considered a “high desert. And the other channel I watch is “Epic Gardening” who are located near me in San Diego, so a Zone 10b or 11.

Thank you for the information! I'm in NE FL zone 9a and a novice gardener. I've found that there are only a handful of YT channels that understand & speak to the unique challenges of gardening in FL's heat and humidity. Was surprised to see okra in a Greenstalk planter! I thought the olants would be so large -- in excess of 5 feet tall -- that they'd never produce in a small container. Do you keep them in the Greenstalk, then transplant them into the garden? Do you provide a certain amount of hours in the shade for your summer vegetable plants?

My beds are in direct sun all day. Do you have any recommendations about shade while they are germinating and or at a young stage? Is that something that I should be concerned with? Thanks I hope to seed in a day or two - Definitely more okra as I harvested my first pod yesterday and it was absolutely delicious! Yay! Edit - I am in Southwest Florida in Lehigh acres which is just east of Fort Myers. I think we’re technically south Florida more than central, lol!

Wait… what is the one thing I need to know?!? Looks like the upload or YT got weird at the end. Thanks for the list! I’m excited to try those Puerto Rican black beans I got from you and I had bought some Luffa based on your suggestion last year or the year before! Question on Egyptian spinach… what is the flavor profile? Similar to baby spinach/spinach? And what about texture? Thanks!

Does the inoculant for cow peas affect to soil if you reuse the soil for other plants?

Only beneficial as the nitrogen and soil life the peas/bacteria provided help to nourish the next round of plants. They are naturally occurring we just added extra : )

I'm not as experienced as the host of this channel! But I have grown sweet potatoes in zone 10b and learned the hard way that sometimes it can be a feeding/fertilizer issue. Either nitrogen rich soil, too much fertilizer (sweet potatoes dont really need very much unless the soil is bad), or the wrong type of fertilizer for your growth objectives. In general, plant food higher in in nitrogen will produce more green leaves. This is great for house plants, leafy greens, and sweet potatoes grown as ornamentals, but for fruiting or root vegetables, (including sweet potatoes) soil with a high nitrogen content will produce more leaves than fruit or roots. You may want to evaluate your soil to see if it is naturally high in nitrogen. Or, if you are using fertilizer or plant food, try a food that is lower in nitrogen than it is in phosphorous and potassium (like 5-10-10). That way you get more fruit/roots than leaves. If it's not a feeding issue, think about the lighting. Fruiting and rooting plants generally need full sun for at least 6 hours a day, so if they are partially shaded maybe they didnt get enough sunlight? The only other two troubleshooting areas I can think of are water: if the soil gets too dry, that may stress the plant out and it may not produce tubers; or growing time: if you pulled them too early before the tubers got a chance to form. So if the variety you have take 120 days to grow and you harvest before then, you may not find many potatoes. Just throwing out some things for you to consider. Hope it helps!
