I installed motion sensored sprinklers in my garden. Whenever a critter gets near my garden, it sets off the sprinklers & scares them off. The only drawback is I have to remember to turn the water off to the sprinklers when I go out to my garden, lol, I got soaked a few times. They really work & are safe.

[@jenitrull5788]

My neighbor has a radio in her shed that is never turned off. It keeps all critters away. When our property is especially quiet, I can hear the music… it makes me smile.

[@Hope-yl7rg]

@@jenitrull5788 my husband does the same thing. We have a shed right next to the garden and the radio plays 24/7. So far so good.

[@mkk1959]

Your garden is lovely 💕 I live in Michigan and the only thing that keeps the deer and bunnies out of the gardens is a tall fence! My brother and sister in law built a beautiful fence around their flower and vegetable garden. Around their 7’ chicken wire posts and fencing; they used grapevines, old chippy windows to add their cottage style touch to it. They even put old doors in to enter the garden! It is absolutely stunning 😊 I’m looking forward to watching your garden bloom and grow 💐🍎🍓🥒

[@rusmiling9909]

Ha, you gave me a chuckle! Very clever idea!

Build an 8' deer fence. You'll be glad you did. Nothing worse than coming to check your garden and every bloom is gone. Great job on it!

[@Vieweratlarge]

These are true words. Between the deer, gophers, birds eating the tops off my lettuces and chards, I feel robbed at the pass as I work so hard in my garden. The other day I came out to find that a gopher had taken down a ten year old artichoke plant! Of course it was loaded with artichokes not really ready to pick, but now we are eating them as minis. I hate gophers with a vengeance. I do have one or two gopher snakes. Wish they would work double time so I could get my garden back!

[@sarahbreen4621]

They will consider them a salad bar. Deer spray does work on roses but have to spray daily.

[@wendymassey9963]

I wish it wasn’t so but it’s truly the only solution!

[@marky3131]

All I could think about watching you plant the garden was the deer are going to have a ball. Any plans for a fence?

Mint is VERY invasive and will spread all over the place ... best to put in pots 😊

[@fransak2723]

I put some mint in a pot and set it in the ground. Within one season it completely took over everything. It will take me years to pull it all.

[@marybetholewinski9697]

I was thinking the same thing. We planted some peppermint underneath our orange tree out here in Phoenix hoping it would stay in the shady area and it over grew the whole area

[@gailweber2341]

When I worked for a greenhouse, they always said if you were going to plant any kind of a mint to plant it in something like a cut off bleach bottle or a mouth shut, but he just is good. I planted it one year before I knew that, and it was so invasive not only that it was covered with flies that made it almost impossible to pass it without having a swarm come up from it.

[@tiffanysmith2255]

I don’t normally leave comments I know you really don’t have time to read them or get back to anyone. I was so shocked when you pulled out the Tiffany rose. Had no idea there was one, of course that’s my name :-) I also have some great natural tips for spraying your plant to keep the deer away. I don’t use chemicals at all. Everything is all natural in my garden. And your cucumbers will be beautiful growing up your grill trellis. What a great idea! I grow mine up against my chain-link sense. You just have to train them in the beginning to get them started . Everything is so beautiful as always!! I think you are the hardest, working, lady, I know!❤ I love your channel so much😊

[@cherylpresleigh6403]

The space is so beautiful. I look forward to seeing how it all grows for you. I have 3 cattle panels attached to raise beds that form a tunnel in the garden. I have grown pickling cucumbers, regular cucumbers, small pumpkins, beans, sugar pod peas and this year part of it has luffa on it. I think your cucumbers will do well. It’s all lovely Mary, and this is one of my favorite videos of yours.

[@bettybryson9637]

Yes! 😊

[@Earthy-Artist]

I paused the video to leave this comment. When one is living in deer country a high fence around the garden is needed otherwise we can't blame the wildlife for eating the food, they don't know any better. With your amazing and abundant God given skills Mary I have no doubt you could whip one up in a jiffy if you wanted to. It may change the visual aesthetic of a garden, but for myself I would rather know I haven't harmed animals in anyway just to keep them out. When in deer country we share the land with the animals, it is their land as well.

[@gracemoore384]

I love watching you work as you have so much energy. One thing I notice is that you will work in flip flops or similar . It’s amazing to me that your feet can tolerate stepping on a shovel etc. I think I’m just envious as I’d have wear supportive sneakers. Your channel is lovely especially as I age as I could work like that 10 yrs. I’m 72 & I’d love to do more now …but can’t . Keep inspiring us Mary !

[@maryanich3828]

I added the same comment to Mary as well earlier on. With a talent of Mary and her husband, their fence would probably look beautiful. One fun thing about deer fencing, is the type of vine flowers you can grow inside of them. With a deer fence, it's such a secure feeling, knowing that your hard work will not be destroyed in a blink of an eye.

[@elainepeterson1269]

Deer fencing is a must for us in Colorado❤

I'm 66 years old. I put in my first raised beds. I planted tomatoes and peppers in one. The second was flowers. They did really good. I wish I would have done this years ago.

[@thefehrs]

Your garden space will be beautiful once established, love how you and John work together ❤️ For the rose bushes, they are fairly easy to grow as long as you plant hardy ones, for colder climate. I'm in Canada 🇨🇦 and I have a rose garden, they come back every year. They like mulch, coffee grounds and I also give them rose fertilizer a couple of times a season. For keeping deer out of your garden The best-known deer repellent is ordinary bar soap. Hung from strings in trees or large shrubs, whether wrapped or unwrapped, the scent of the soap is said to keep deer away. Some people even attach soap bars to stakes, placed at 10- to 15-foot intervals along the perimeter of their property or garden area

[@WandaL.AlejandroRuiz]

To keep your roses pretty you need to clip off the rose when it' looks like it's "dying' so new sprouts come out to produce more flowers. all you need to do is clip them that's all and they get more bushy and beutiful.

[@dawncraven2593]

Beautiful. Now you need a bench or two to sit and watch everything grow Will be watching 🤩

[@karenheineman3284]

Mary, you also asked about growing cucumbers on a frame and yes, it works beautifully! In SE Iowa, I thrifted the sides of a metal baby crib, leaning them against our garden utility shed and trained the cucumber vines on them. Easier to pick, less mess and they grew through mid-October. We had so many that our local food pantry was the recipient of dozens! I really look forward to your show! Best regards, Karen

[@wendylawton8274]

When I saw you mulching and fertilizing your roses, I guessed those roses have never had it so good. I've grown roses for years and ignore them too much other than pruning and some fertilizing and they are hardy and beautiful. I've had great success with landscape roses lately-- totally care free-- but my favorite are David Austin English roses.

[@LindaBaker-l1b]

Beautiful roses and beautiful new beds! It's always fun seeing you and John working together so happily! You two are such a delightful couple! 🌹🌹

[@christieoertel1589]

Hi Mary the garden looks wonderful, what an industrious family you are. Regarding roses, I agree dead head often and prune back to a pink shoot if the branches get to leggy, I noticed wind around them so you may need to stake them. I plant calendular around mine to keep aphids at bay. I just loved the frilly pink rose. I chose all mine for perfume alone, if they aren't fragrant then they aren't in my garden. My favourite rose is Just Joey it blooms as big as side plate and starts off lemony and then gets lovely pink edges. I agree about the mint, mine even grows in the cracks in the concrete path!!. Have a great week, Gods blessings from NZ

[@brendadaugherty9057]

Lambs Ear is what my husband planted around our garden and it is working to keep deer,rabbits and other critters from munching on his plants. I had bought the lambs ear to plant in my flower bed because I think it is pretty and it spreads. He needed something for his garden because the deer or rabbit had taken the tops out of some of his plants so I told him he should try some of my lambs ear . He planted it around the garden and so far it is working.Plants are looking great and we have squash and cucumbers already.Love your channel and you are the sweetest lady on KZbin and believe me I have watched a lot of them. Just keep being you and we will keep watching.

[@theheritagehousesc]

Lambs ear doesn't work for me. I have that plus herbs and deer still eats everything else. They are a huge plague here. I have over 25 in the woods that are in my yard on a daily basis. We are in city limits so we can't shoot to scare them either. 😢

[@lindanave6390]

[@forrestgump9576]

I have always heard going number around the perimeter will keep the deer away. Its free anyway. We used a bucket with a camping top on it then took it outside to spread around. Also, a double fence will work. does not have to be tall either. Deer have no depth perception, so they will not jump it.

[@lorrilogancigalina3781]

My lesson learned this year is build a bigger one! Mine are going crazy, going off trellis….and I still have to bend over to look under all foliage for cucumbers! Your garden is looking gorgeous! I also use red light deer deterrents.

[@cathymccall9846]

Beautiful. So much reward from gardening this way. Deer won't relent. You will be devastated and sad. Fence them out now! Be blessed.

[@kebergify]

I've always grown cucumbers and squash on an arched hog panel. One year it was a completely covered tunnel and I was able to walk underneath to pick the cucumbers...so handy!

[@cattuslavandula]

My grandmother used to plant her cucumbers along a chain link fence on the outskirts of her yard. The plants grew straight up the fence and spread out all over it. It was so much fun to spot the cucumbers as they grew.

[@midgethorn4083]

Then I get out my neem oil. Everything looks so lovely and peaceful!

I prayed for God to bless your garden and your ground. 💖 It was such a joy to watch, I live in the city with no land and miss gardening when I was at home, I couldn’t do it now if I had land but this was so wonderful and relaxing to watch with the nice music.

I grew up in Houston and loved the long growing season there. My dad always had a garden while we were growing up and then had one on his patio when he moved into a condo. I moved to northern New Mexico in 1999 and we have a short growing season. The danger of frost isn't over until June 1st! But we can also grow bulbs, which was hard to do in Houston.

FYI…Knockout roses are easy to raise if you have not had roses before. They are very disease resistant. They also have shrub roses that only get 4’ x 3’. I live in West Virginia, so I know you can raise them in Ohio. They have a variety of colors . I have red and yellow. Another rose …A beautiful climbing rose is New Dawn. Just this year invested in a shrub rose that grows 4‘ x 4‘ by David Austin. He is the Englishman that has gorgeous roses. You are able to get them here in the United States.. my new one arrives this week. They ship them out according to zones at the correct time . ❤

As a beekeeper I can tell you there is a whole science to keeping bees, especially if you want to overwinter them. But your new garden & orchard is a great location to have a shiver or two! When we got started we took classes with a local bee keepers group so check around your area to see who might offer some in the fall so you can learn over the winter and decide if you are ready to add a colony to your hive box next spring.

Roses love salt. I always put salt in the hole. And they grow amazingly. Yes I grow cucumbers on a trellis. They form better and have great airflow. I live in north Texas and gardening is not easy so I know in Ohio your garden will grow. If your dear and groundhogs will let it. Good luck and I can’t wait to see your results.

[@CookiesAndCosmos]

I don't know a lot about roses specifically, but I have a fairly good understanding of gardening in general. Mary, perhaps "salt" works in the particular area of this person, however, I can't imagine that table salt would benefit roses (or any plants) in any garden. Perhaps this person is referring to Epsom salt, which I have heard is beneficial in some gardens. I would talk to your local state's college extension office before adding "salt" anywhere in your garden.

[@denisecoviello5619]

The new garden is just beautiful!!! My tip is to dig up all the mint plants and put them in pots. They will take over your whole garden. Also, if you have deer, you should probably add a tall fence. It’s so discouraging to come out and find your blooms have been annihilated. I think back to the Flower Massacre of 2019, when I learned the hard way about being diligent with spraying deer repellent.

[@donnacalvert311]

Mary, roses are so easy to care for. A little pruning and some food, and keep an eye out for pests-spray them with a water and Ivory dish soap mixture in the morning time.

My sister-in-law and her family just harvested honey from one hive that was started here in Alabama last August. The hive yielded 75 pounds of the most delicious honey I have ever tasted. We have alot of dandelions here in this area and apparently, the bees love it. With some research, I am sure you could raise one or two hives with all the beautiful flowers and fauna in your backyard. You could then take what you harvest and market it as a honey/sugar body scrub in beautiful jars. My SiL is going to use the honeycomb/beeswax to make a lip balm and give them as gifts at Christmas.
