One of the best things in this video..... Andrew's realisation that 'Grammy made carrot cake'. YES, I would totally agree with you, Andrew 😊

[@fasteddy3336]

Every time I see you guys picking pickling cucumbers it makes me want pickles. And I’m not a big pickle guy.

[@theveggieboys]

Pickles are delicious my friend

[@slomo1716]

You don't HAVE to make pickles with them, they are more delicious than the bigger seedy cukes! I've been craving to go to my farm stand for MORE of these smaller "pickling" cukes.

[@hazelbrungard1623]

Not to make pickles but brings back memories of childhood when mom made pickles. Six day , seven day crocks fermenting on the inside porch.

I love you guys! If I had another go round I'd be a farmer; hard workin' and happy. Would it be possible to see more of "Grammy" in the kitchen? I would love to see how she makes her bakery items and her canning recipes. I saw an episode where she was working on making some salsa. LOVE watching your channel. My name's Mary.

Thank you again, Andrew for all you do on farm and videos. All of you are very lucky to get to get such wonderful healthy vegetables and meats.

[@tidelovinyankee1368]

I'm glad you have trouble keeping up with your customer demands. That indicates the loyalty of your customers and the quality of your product. Once again, I must say how heart-warming it is to see the family eating dinner together (and lunch for that matter). Callie is such a popular child; that bodes well for her future.

[@LR-xx5ig]

I am so glad your coming on everyday. Very cool

[@valterzc8187]

Cucumbers really love hot days as long as you irrigate it. I have noticed that in some really hot days sprinklers have a better result compare to dripping, it is curious cause it seems they like water in the leaves too.

[@Mandy138Cool]

I know lots of sources will say water on leaves can burn, but I have always found the opposite: it cools surface temp quickly and reduces stress on plants trying to self mitigate heat.

[@tindrums]

In our weather, cucumber grows in winter. In summer they bend like bananas.

[@valterzc8187]

@@Mandy138Cool exactly! I am a farmer and I use both ways to irrigate, if it takes over a week hot and without rain, the dripping irrigation won't be enough, so water on the leaves is important too.

It's 6:00 p.m. and it's 103 degrees outside, feels like 111 degrees. All the grass is dead. I can't wait for Fall when the temps will be only 90 degrees. I feel for you guys picking the field.

[@samstevens7888]

Have you thought about growing sorghum as a cover crop then feeding it to the chickens. It has amazing protein for them. I know you mix your own food for them so and grow cover crops so just thought I would throw that out there.

[@deb5710]

Another factor that comes into play with the triple digit temperatures, is the black plastic that keeps out the weeds around your cucumbers that actually absorbs heat instead of reflecting it. A straw mulch around the plants would cool down the ground temperature a little bit, but with triple digit temps plants start to go into shutdown if it continues day after day mulch wouldn't help much. It's good that you are able to harvest now, hope you get cooler temps, and some rain soon!

I am about to dust with Diatomaceous earth...but I'm worried!

[@thefreshwater2727]

Hi Andrew. Thanks for sharing so much.... I’m sure you’ve seen the happenings in the Netherlands with the farmers..... the same situation will probably be coming here. There is a lot of information on a site called Clash of Minds 126.... Vertical farming is mentioned with a couple,of names you can Google. Control of the population is one of the goals. You seem so isolated where you are but farmlands are being bought up by the likes of Gates, the Chinese and others. The Bible tells of a time of trouble such as there was or would be on the earth.. We are very close to it as I’m sure you can see in the news. I’m aware you can say nothing about this online. That’s where we are time wise. A great book that covers all this and much more is the book The Great Controversy (between Christ and Satan) by EG white written over 100 years ago. Take care my friends - love to you all!

[@thefreshwater2727]

A time of trouble such as there NEVER was or would be on the earth. (Correction)

Hey Farmer, do you know the reason that veg. farmers have large families? Could it be because of one veg. plant that smells different than any other and it's foliage will make you sick. But the fruit is delicious!

[@marypatten9655]

this is how life was in the US before WWI and WWII. familys stayed and worked together. guess it was the civil war that started the first break down of the family farm unit in the south east. not saying freeing the skaves was bad, because it was not. just saying it did intenify the the begining of war breaking up our family units and breaking down the family structure of life and religion.

That’s how we were brought up and as adults every Sunday no matter what everyone shows up for after church meals

[@thefreshwater2727]

@@maryybarra4841 Just FYI; God calls for the seventh day sabbath in the Fourth commandment in exodus 20. The Catholic system changed the sabbath to the first day of the week (Sunday). Who do we want to follow, God or man? A beast in prophecy is a religio/political system such as the papacy. The mark of this beast is Sunday worship. The seal of God is found in the fourth commandment. A seal contains three items; The name of the authority (God), the title of the authority (Creator) and the territory of the authority (Heaven, earth and the seas)..... We have the freedom to accept the mark of the beast or the seal of God. It is a life or death choice. The Seal of God will be on you if you are in the Book of Life; the Mark of The Beast will be on you if you accept the dictates of the papacy. Look into it if you will. God gives you freedom of choice. The papacy will and has forced people to follow her dictates. Remember the Dark Ages. The pope has stated that he hates both our constitution and individualism. That says a lot. He wants compliance and “unity”..... If you have unity with compromise you have lost your doctrine to the Roman Church. Shalom my friend.

Hi Veggie boys and Girls! Love the channel! Thanks for sharing so much knowledge, more people need to learn to grow there own food. Can you provide more tips for the tiny gardeners? How come your hot peppers don't cross pollinate and make the sweeter peppers hot? I made the mistake of growing cayenne peppers and jalapenos together, my jalapenos were way to hot that year I couldn't eat them.

[@theveggieboys]

I’ll try in the future :)

[@bruceleroy7125]

peppers that are grown together and cross-pollinate only have the genes from the parents in the seeds. so in order to actually get a cross-bred cayenne/jalapeno, you would have had to grow the seeds from the cross-pollinated pepper out. jalapenos can have varying heat levels, you must have just gotten the higher end of the scale

[@leahwithheld783]

Like Bruce said, it's not the neighboring cayennes, but often a bit of stress. For example, dry, hot weather makes for spicy, hot peppers.
