Welcome to my Garden diary. I’m in Zone 7B Atlanta GA and glad y’all can join me in my journey to a happier and more sustainable healthy lifestyle. Like most of you, I am in corporate by day and A part-time gardener who tries his best to learn and share ornamental, lawn and vegetable gardening principles learned from local and RU-vid community. I have a very sloped yard and I try to make the most of it. With our busy lives, I find pleasure in sharing easier tips that worked for me.

I'm thinking of getting Marketmore 97 cucumber seeds, as they are an improvement of the 76. They are 55 days too, which one can pick sooner. Vines are just 6' long.
I grow bitter melon every year but don't always have good germination rates, until my 7 year daughter who was just play gardening while I worked, threw some bitter melon seeds in a pot of natural wood mulch and gave it water and less than two weeks later up came the sprouts. They all sprouted. She did the same thing again after that , and again, they all came up. So, that's what I'm doing next spring. I'm in zone 6A
I’m so glad I found this channel! So helpful! I bought eggplant amethyst gem. They are compact for my garden. 10B I can’t get them started in the seed trays
There seem to be varieties that always produce branching and multiple flowers while others usually produce one stem and flower I think the Russian will only branch if the growth point at the top get destroyed while the plant is still somewhat immature or at least the flower bud has not developed The tall growing strains I think have a longer period after germination before the flower bud begins to form at the top (s) there are miniature and red colored varieties for the flower garden seem here to be able to get tall on half day sun but somewhat spindly,when grown in absolute full sun (like 14 hour/day) the flower will get much larger also the young seedlings go through a stage where they are very prone to getting knocked over by rain and wind even if planted in full sun respond well to abundant deep soil moisture and fertility rats/chipmunks will sometimes dig and eat the planted seeds or even pull the young seedlings out of the ground killing them
The k you for sharing this information. I did notice that when I planted them on the side and it snapped that It sprouted several buds but it did make my plant fall.
Awesome. i'm going to get the Morbloom fertlizer, i would just stick with one fertilizer, not knowing i should switch. That's the deal breaker... i just bought a shishito pepper, i want more fruit, growing in zone 3B, very short going season. Very jealous of growers in warmer climates. 😊
I did not for this video but I highly suggest you do since I’ve been doing that on my other peppers this year and has been growing better. Prune the single stalk so it become 2 main runners while it’s growing. Good luck
Have you ever grown Senshu Kinukawa Mizu (eggplant) or Mitoyyo? The former tiy are supposed to be able to eat raw. I'm growing them this year. I'm keeping my fingers crossed I'll get a decent harvest. I got the seeds from Baker Creek.
sorry im confused, you cut from the base but the rest of the video in fast mode it seems you only cut the top part? i see that the lower part in the end are all there, or did you plant again what you cut?
Hi! I have a quick question. I saw you planted a few seeds per cell. Do you thin them out before they start to grow their true leaves? Or how do you do it? Thank you!
We use clover lawns in zone 8 at our farm not in the house. Ditch white seems to do the best. It stays thick but when drought hits it becomes a little crispy. Otherwise it’s fone
