Veg Garden: Do Spring Planning Right

[@PetLoves]

Notes.. succession planting. Plant Determinate and Indeterminate Tomatoes on same day. Bush Beans and Pole Beans plant on same day. Lettuce is winter crop, but Living seeds does have "Heat Resistant" varieties available. Tom varieties Spanish and Italian.. plant in Feb. When frost hits, pick whole vine and hang up.. it cures on the vine, winter storeage tomatoes

[@LivingseedsFarm]

Ditto.

[@PetLoves]

Notes.. Make a list.. plan your plantings.. Okra Luffah Chiilies Cotton plant now. Next tomatoes and sweet peppers.. then cucumbers and pumpkins.. next beans then you are in spring

[@LivingseedsFarm]

Again. Ditto. 😉

I love all your videos. I would also think it would be super great to make short videos for each type of veg. How to grow, when to grow etc. Lovely to just refer back and also you don't get videos like that for the South African climate. Please please please.

[@LivingseedsFarm]

We will definitely look at that for you.

Great information Shaun. Love the video. Can you perhaps give your view on crop rotation?

[@LivingseedsFarm]

Crop rotation is not as important as keeping living roots in the soil. Always try to have living roots in the soil as this is what keeps your soil alive. People get fixated on crop rotation schedules and tie themselves up rigid schedules. Keeping living roots in the soil is key. Also don't plant the same things in the same place at the same time every year, mix it up. We rely heavily on single green manures and multi-species cover crops on any soil that is left bare for more than a week. Specifically to keep living roots in the soil. Even if we have an immature cover crop that is terminated after a few short weeks of growth. This will be far more beneficial than a rigid crop rotation schedule.

I'm struggling to find the right website to see what my first and last frost date is in Riversdale.

[@LivingseedsFarm]

It’s best to ask on your local WhatsApp groups. Micro climates can make a big difference.

What pheromones and trap do I use for catapilars that take over my cabbages and cauliflowers

[@user-saveggiegarden]

Really really need help with that.

[@user-saveggiegarden]

I go out daily and remove them and look for eggs.

[@user-saveggiegarden]

It's a mission

[@meleanorheymans8542]

Sorry to complain, but most of your videos sound is extremely low.

[@thelxvechild3193]

Headphones should fix this problem. Never even noticed there was a sound issue.
