?? Couple of questions. I transplanted some lettuce and it’s been looking great but there’s something eating on a few of the leaves. Any suggestions on that? And then I have some basil seedlings that are growing but they are more of a yellow green and I know that’s not normal. But I also know I’m really not supposed to fertilize that early. Any suggestions?
That's a lot of work. Maybe a thin blank+ a big black trash back will do LOL. Can I plant cuttings by the end of September in Baltimore? What dirt do I need to plant cuttings? Thanks
I had problem with my plants sagging probably due to heavy fruit was wondering if I were to add more calcium would it improve, I'm growing in soil in a covered greenhouse
Its crazy that I grow so many cherry tomatoes and I don't even like the taste of some....SO...took them all down today except 2 (that I like) chickens enjoyed all the fruit and updated my journal to only have 3 cherry's next year and only the ones I like!!!! Amazing how relieving just typing that out is!!🤩
Thanks. They taste great The Rusted Garden Vegetable Seeds & Home Garden Supplies: www.therustedgarden.com Earn 15% and become a TRG Affiliate for our seed & garden shop Sign Up Here: bit.ly/4aarkDD
It does take years but the number of berries is much greater. This was just 1 harvest. The Rusted Garden Vegetable Seeds & Home Garden Supplies: www.therustedgarden.com Earn 15% and become a TRG Affiliate for our seed & garden shop Sign Up Here: bit.ly/4aarkDD
That's what the annual gardens are for. Eating in the meanwhile. Lol. Fruit trees typically have to go 5 years or so. So all the good stuff you have to wait for. These much like Blackberries and Grapes can be invasive if you don't stay up on the pruning. So always be aware with that too.

Sweet looking beds. I've never anything but i started a compost pile and a watermelon sprout grew up out of the top of it. I guess i must've thrown some seeds in there when I put the rinds in there. Im gonna run with it and see how it goes. I was looking to use the compost for a plum tree but this is even cooler haha. Gonna use these tips thanks.
That melon will do really well. The Rusted Garden Vegetable Seeds & Home Garden Supplies: www.therustedgarden.com Earn 15% and become a TRG Affiliate for our seed & garden shop Sign Up Here: bit.ly/4aarkDD
You are so good at de-stressing everyone. I recently had PTSD event and wanted to watch someone who is calming as well as expert at teaching. You check all the boxes!

Thank you for all this fantastic information. We are trying to grow a big patch of spinach that we planted about 5 days ago. We are lucky that our season is so long here in 8a NC.
Good luck. It's a great cool weather crops. The Rusted Garden Vegetable Seeds & Home Garden Supplies: www.therustedgarden.com Earn 15% and become a TRG Affiliate for our seed & garden shop Sign Up Here: bit.ly/4aarkDD

Mice and rats also love sunflower seeds great for putting into traps to catch them than drop the teap into a bucket of water and they are dead in seconds because you can't catch and release them especially if there is a lot of them.

Those were just $10 plants from Home Depot. They sell them in the spring. You need a male an female plant. These are small 12-18 inch stems. I would look at local nurseries for plants that are larger thought.

Hi Gary! I really appreciate all of your videos. Your advice has come in handy for this new-ish gardner. I found a fertilizer specific to some flowere, and the NPK are present. Higher in the N than the other two. Would i be able to use that for my vegetabke garden? Also, all i have are oak leaves. Are those appropriate to use? Thanks again for you gardening knowledge.
You can use that just fine. Oak leave should get chopped up if you can as they are thick and decay slower but you can use them.

I had a volunteer maypop come up this spring and I am just now getting a harvest. They are delicious. But now I’m worried about them taking over the garden. I guess we’ll see.

The lettuce seed I ordered from you a couple weeks ago, has already germinated and about a 1/2 inch tall. And the Maryland weather is looking great for the next couple weeks.

You can use it indoors. I think grass may actually support gnats so I wouldnt do that. The Rusted Garden Vegetable Seeds & Home Garden Supplies: www.therustedgarden.com Earn 15% and become a TRG Affiliate for our seed & garden shop Sign Up Here: bit.ly/4aarkDD

Ten years ago I bought two pots of Arctic Kiwi from Lowes. Each pot had two males and one female. They grew beautiful vines, but have never bloomed, so no fruit. I left them alone for a few ywars, but finally they overtook the part of the yard where they were growing, so now I cut them back every year. Still no fruit, but adundant growth. I am about ready to just dig them up and try something else.
I would try jacking up the potassium and phosphorous around them. It might help. The Rusted Garden Vegetable Seeds & Home Garden Supplies: www.therustedgarden.com Earn 15% and become a TRG Affiliate for our seed & garden shop Sign Up Here: bit.ly/4aarkDD
I love your content so much! Can you please include metric measures centimetres etc for the rest of the world? A reminder only USA and sometimes UK measures in the very strange imperial system ;). Thanks again! Oh and Fahrenheit so confusing. Zero is water freezing. 100 is water boiling in celcius. Zero is some undefined brine water freezing and 98 is human body temp in Fahrenheit. Doesn't make sense :/ unless you are in USA or Liberia
Thanks for watching. I would but I dont know them. So its is hard as I am talking. I do convert inches to cm at times. 1 inch equals 2.5 cm. We were taught imperial for some reason they tossed metric out in the 1970's.
can i over -winter my cool weather indetetminate tomato varieties... alaskan and siberian ... or even take slips, root and keep for early planting in spring? i live at beach in pnw, dont have greenhouse and we have short warmer summer seasons with temperate cool weather... im trying to figure out best way to time. sept is when it starts getting cooler and i have problems with ripening. thanks so much❤
