Welcome to the 6 Hearts on 6 Acres RU-vid Channel! I am Bri, a wife, and mom to 4 children, who loves to feed her family food made from real ingredients, has a passion for growing a gorgeous garden full of variety, and preserving the harvest to eat year-round!
I've spent 2 years trying to make pickles from cucs in my garden, I've tried every method, I seem hopeless at this one. I think it's the canning, like the heat make em all shriveled and mushy. Tried everything, salt vinegar water ratios confusing, not sure why recipes seem all over the place. Just trying to get that french style pickle.
Bri, your garden is lovely and A.MAZ.ING!! I love your channel and I'm so happy when I see you have a new post. Take it easy out in the heat, thank you for sharing your Bounty with us! 🤗🌱🌷🐝
Your onions are FABULOUS.I'm definitely adding some next season.I use onions daily and am so impressed by yours.Your whole garden is amazing.All my squash are coming along except my zucchini.I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.So, I'm planting new ones somewhere else this weekend.Wish me luck.😊 It's supposed to be 111-115 this coming week.Aghhhh.
Your dill bolted too!! And you are using it! I was worried my dill was no longer usable when it bolted last week. P.S. I apparently thought I planted dill all over the place and kept thinking I had purchased chamomile, figured out that was true yesterday. What I thought was a dill plant ...is chamomile. lol
Beautiful garden, you are getting so much out of it. My mom and I are doing pickling cucumbers, bush beans, tomatoes, squash and 3 different kinds of peppers. We are doing them in pots but they aren't doing as good as if they were in the ground. The heat isn't helping either. I just hope we get some harvest out of them all. Thanks for sharing your beautiful garden!!!😊
I plan on a fall garden every year, but by the time it comes I am just burnt out and don't plant anything. Fingers 🤞 I get one put in this year! I am getting ready to start a 2nd succession of green beans, squash and zucchini and maybe a pumpkin.
Strawberry rhubarb pie is the best. I started growing rhubarb this yr , the instructions say I can't harvest for 2 yrs. I can't wait to make strawberry rhubarb pie in a few yrs
What an exciting garden tour! Im glad to see I’m not the only one with weeds growing haha. It’s has been a productive garden so far but alongside with weeds. With young children, summer activities and sickness it’s hard to stay on top of weeds!
Thanks for sharing. Love your videos on your garden tours 🥰...I've been wanting to try ground cherries. Are they perennials or annuals? and when is the best time to plant them? 😊
Did you try more natural insecticides and they didn’t work so you went to Sevin? I use the same spray for almost all harmful insects in my garden and I’ve had a lot of success. I use a DIY peppermint Castile soap spray with a tbsp of organic peppermint Castile soap & 20 drops of peppermint essential oil added to a spray bottle with a quart of water. When I had a Japanese beetle issue, I added like a 1/8-1/4 tsp of organic neem oil to the apray because I needed to Spray too much of the peppermint spray to be effective on the beetles. I use an organic BT spray for any above the soil worms or caterpillars trying to devour my plants.
Your sage will get huge.Mine is five ft wide and 4-5ft tall.Watching your garden tour gets me so excited.My garden is well behind yours,just starting to take off.Thank you for sharing.❤
All of your goodies!!! <3 I was just telling my sister in law how I meant to really not grow so much this year, but I did...by accident! But your garden makes me want to grow a larger garden next year lol
I tell myself every year, I probably don't need quite so much... and then I get spring fever come February and I just can't help myself from starting ALLLL the seeds! 🤣😅
I love your garden.Everything looks great.I'm so glad you grew and talked about ground cherry,I've never had them.I did grow some from seed this year.I can't wait for my granddaughters (myself too)to try them😊❤
Thank you so much! Last year was my first year trying them! They are so easy to grow, no pests have bothered them, and they are an excellent garden snack!
Hi Bri! Sundee here. (Am on my farm channel account today). First, thank you for making this video! I have always been unsure about canning (had a mason jar shatter glass all over the place once) and after your video today I might feel comfortable trying again! Second, would you mind doing a canning video with tomatoes in the future? Lastly, you were right! The cabbage is "balling" up! No pun intended for the "ball grabber" 😂.
