Hey Travis, thank you again for your Giant Butternut Squash seeds, one of ours finished at 27.8lbs when the plant source died. My kids had fun watching it go and it was very tasty for that size. We cut 1.5" slices and made pizzas on the grill, 😂 topped with fresh from the garden basil, tomatoes, & mozzarella cheese.
My baby drags me to the garden first thing EVERY morning and has me pick every single okra pod bigger than his finger (maybe 2 inches). He has been eating okra for breakfast for a couple months. My okra doesn’t stand a chance, and I’ll need to grow 50 plants next year to outpace my son!
Y'all need to have a calendar that you sell. When to start in the greenhouse, when to transplant, and when to direct sow. I bet seed sells would go up. I see y'all do have Hoss Garden Planner, thank you for that ❤️ Found that while looking to see if you had a catalog.
Remember that many of your viewers have early first frost dates like me-September 20. We’re happy to get one harvest per year. However, I do enjoy watching how you keep on growing month after month.... I’ve learned a lot from you; thanks so much for sharing. 🌱
In northern areas, it might also be good to add 2-3 weeks to your maturity timing. A lot of the days to maturity estimates are based on optimal light exposure, which occur mid spring to mid summer. As we head down the rest of the year, our daylight hours are growing shorter and shorter (PNW here). Add to that the cloudy, rainy season, which further reduces daylight availability. So our plants up here need some extra time to develop compared to what's stated on our seed packets.
Hey Travis, Here in southern VA I've got my 3rd wave of 8 cucumbers (gherkins' and marketmores), 2nd wave 48 summer squashes (yellow straight neck, smooth criminal, supersonic, black beauty, fordhook, white scallop), 52 okree and it's my first year pushing this as a fall crop! I'm so excited to see it up and running ( Clemson spineless), fresh new sprouts of 48 sunflowers (autumn beauty, teddybear, Mongolian giant and Evening sun), 16 tiny Cantaloupe (petite de Raines, passion), 10 Butternut, 10 Spaghettis, and 32 table queen acorn squashes, 8 fall cucamelones, 108 bush beans on a third wave (dragon tonged, blue lake), 42' pole beans, 3 potatoes that volunteered by sprouting in the pantry, 48 tomatoes 2nd wave from suckers (black krim, beefsteak, purple Cherokee, yellow pear), 7 pepperoncini peppers, 12 watermelon (Amish moon and stars, sweet baby). I've got onions and leeks growing in seed trays. And I'm seed starting all the brassica's for transplant in about 6 weeks 4 types of cabbages, 2 kohlrabies, Broccoli's, Cauliflower, Rappini, Brussels, Kale, Collards, beets, rutabaga, turnips... carrots will get direct sown as soon as temps drop to 80 degrees. My husband built me a greenhouse and I really hit my stride this year with the garden. I'm really having a great time in the garden.
My garden is the smaller than yours, so I do plant 2 rounds of tomatoes. I plant determinate, Roma tomatoes around the middle of July, and they are ready by mid September. In OH, I do plant more cucumbers and summer squash, but this is when the mildew will really destroy them faster than in June or July.
I've planted more cucumbers, added pink eye purple hull and cowpeas to my empty trellises before the fall gets here. Also some yellow squash and zucchinis.
This year I'm doubling down on keeping my garden producing. Just this week I planted corn, carrots, mustard and I'm on my 3rd planting of bush beans. A couple weeks ago I planted yellow squash and cantaloupe that are a couple inches tall. Next week I'm going to try a few cucumbers, peas and I have a few rooted tomato suckers I'm going to set out. I'm trying to chit some of my potatoes and if they start to sprout they're going in the ground. I have cabbage seed in trays to go out in a couple weeks. Lastly I seeded buckwheat in one of my plots as a ground cover and will be planting some winter wheat in another one this fall.
I really enjoy your Chanel. I watch yours and your momma and daddy's for gardening and I watch Texas preper 2 for my Blackberrys. Keep up the good work.
Just watched a video about cooking the okra greens that you have pruned! The leaves were soaked in salted water, chopped and cooked just like collards! Can’t wait to try this!
9b. Okra, Kentucky bush beans, California black eyed peas, Lima beans, pumpkins. Started seeds indoors of Brussels sprout green onions and cucumbers. Lots of flowers.
I have had around 90 days of no rain and high 90s to 107 degree temps. I don’t know how a fall garden is going to make it. I’m in Texas and I got family that lives 1 hour away and they are tired of all the rain they are getting.
I'm in san antonio and imreplantig tomatoes right now, and will be putting in broccoli and coliflower in about 3/4 weeks. I did put some shade over the new tomatoes.
Carrots, Mustard Greens, Beets, Beans, Delicata Squash , and something I've been anxious to try, some Brussel Sprouts. But later on in the fall, i'll be planting some more Bok Choi.
Every body keeps saying first frost, first frost, first frost. Our first date suggested October 28 to November 28, but we don't typically get a freeze until February. Fall to early winter may be very mild temperatures wise in El Nino. We have been rain less for over a month with 100 degree plus high Temps. I know you can not make universal predictions. But I am zone 8 in northern east texas. It's CRAZY. LUV YA thanks.
My summer garden is done. All my beds and bags have a mustard/daikon cover crop fumigation round going before fall crops get planted come late September. Fall tomatoes are up under lights. Soon onions, leeks. Beans do well up to Thanksgiving. Fall cukes. Peas get planted October 1. For me July and August are down time from the garden except some seed starting under lights and keep the cover crops thriving.
Thanks Travis, I am in Bluffton, SC. All your advise works perfect for my area. My garden is all raised beds and I dense intercropping( being careful to allow for airflow) . My previous fall gardens have not been productive. I think i was waiting to late in the season. Its hard for me to remove plants that are still producing. I need to work on that! Thank you. Karen
Just got my dwarf okra in so got a 45ft row of that sowed and waiting to see some sprouts. But as of now I’ve got okra going and a few cucumbers. Will be planting some sweet corn in the next 2 weeks. Only thing I’ve ever really had luck with in the fall is turnips and mustard so they’ll be going in the ground about the end of September beginning of October for me in south Louisiana.
well travis, i agree in north Central NC i will grow pole beans, pinched off some suckers and will get a dozen or so more Tomatoes. Will get corn planted in the next week, amd started okra 2 weeks ago. So youre spot on brother! As always keep it up!
Thanks Travis. I like the simple logical approach to fall planting and of course the choices. I live in East Texas zone 8b as well but my frost date is likely later than yours, but my temperatures are higher. August 1st 113 degrees, 7 pm still 103. I started small Candy pumpkins a week or two ago and have some yard long beans growing but Sunflowers all went bust, just too hot. The pumpkins sprang into life. The beans took off quickly as well. One neighbor said he plants his Jacko lantern pumpkins mid-July which is why I tried pumpkins at all. I am a container Gardner for most things but beans and sunflowers. Keep them coming. Using Coop gro BTW and its too early to say but it settles in very well.
I sowed a second round of okra, blackeyed peas and purple hull peas. Also planning on summer squash and zucchini for fall. I have a couple of indeterminate tomato plants determined to beat the heat. So looking to have a few cherry tomatoes once the weather cools down a bit. Already planning the fall garden and what cool season veggies I will be growing. So ready for cooler temps.
Planted summer squash, which I’m growing vertically this go around. I’m also playing and planting some tiny melons and tomatoes. 🤞 Appreciate your content so much because we live close enough that our wedding was at St. George. 😊
Corinto was sold out in the small packages on Johnny Seeds. Didn’t feel the need to buy that many seeds because I don’t have the space for them. So I’m trying Diva cucumbers.
Great vid & advice! Thank you! My cucumbers, bell & hot peppers, and tomatoes are doing amazing this year. My bush beans, okra and potatoes, not so much. I received all my okra seeds from you Saturday(thank you!), and planting them, along with peas, more beans and potatoes this week! Got my kohlrabi(in containers) and broccoli in the ground and they're doing great so far. But really, I just want to have some okra & tomatoes to eat, all winter long 😂😂. Eastern shore, md - 7b
My brother lives in south Florida. He's bragging to me about starting his fall garden. He's going to have everything.im going to beat him on my Alabama farm😊
@@dawns5499 oh Lord I'm planting corn, just to see if I can get a harvest. I'm gonna do my fall veggies soon. I got more cowpeas, continue with my peppers, all types. Basically I'm doing a lot of summer stuff going into fall. Just trying to see results. God bless with your harvest ❤️
Being in zone 5, fall comes much earlier here. Still, i recently transplanted some zucchini and sunflowers. Using some season extention, we can push the boundaries a little but we are past the point for starting sweet corn and potatoes. 😅
My tomatoes always have a second wind in the fall. Around this time is when they look dreadful, but when I cut them down they end up regrowing like new
i just planted corn where my green beans were about a week ago and they're already sprouted,also planted cucumber seeds again about a week ago and they'll be trellis ready in a few days,have pumpkin sprouting too. will probably do some onions when my first round of corn is done ,i'm still harvesting it's about done as well use that area for onions and taters
Great info, what about egg plant? I had several plants but the last storm devastated most my garden so going to try your suggestions less cucumbers. Thanks
Tried some rattlesnake pole beans this year. Not bad, but do have strings, kind of like Kentucky wonders. Oddly random sizes can have strings so kind of hard to combat that, smaller usually better.
There are lots of gardeners in our area that struggle with them. We rotate and grow lots of cover crops, which is probably why we don't deal with them much.
The plant debris has to be crispy dry for it to work. I tried it once, but took forever for it to become dry enough to burn. Now I just pull what I can and leave the rest.
just look at your yard mister....THEY need to make a gardening series for tripolar people like me cause i cant get no kind of order out my yard front or back im just shot i buy and purchase and order seeds and tools and fertiliser and got nada today no plants nothing ,, wild lettuce grows in my yard as a weed and if it wasnt for that i couldnt have no fun at all😭
How did your experiment go between the potatoes in ground versus raised bed? Maybe I missed the video. My potatoes growing in large pots did not do well. I ordered seed potatoes from Maine fertilized twice, we had hot dry summer till recent and now having lots of rain. Nancy from nebraska
Thanks Travis. Good stuff! What about herbs? I live in south louisiana. My first frost date is Nov 15. Which herbs can I start now in the heat for the fall?
I pretty well buy compost every year for my garden plots and beds. Last year I got a load of the crappiest compost ever. It looked nice and black when it was fresh but smelled like a fireplace. After it was spread out, dried out and got watered a time or two it looked like straight wood mulch. Coincidentally or not I had my worst gardening year to date. Is there anything I can do to get back on track? New compost? Can't exactly remove the old. Cross my fingers and hope for the best?
Here in Southwest Louisiana, cucumbers and squash grow much better, for me, in the fall. The vine borer has gotten every squash I've planted this year. Any advice on how to combat them?
I’m in Southeast, MS … I plant my squash early March then when they show signs of pest damage or disease, I yank them out even if they’re producing and will have started another round in a different area 3-4 weeks after the first round. Once those borers and squash bugs find your plant, no need in fighting them unless you use a pesticide.
I did just that this year. Unfortunately the first planting got too much water and died. The 2nd and 3rd plantings have got hit with vine bores before they ever really produced much if anything. But on the bright side, I've had no other pests anywhere in the garden. Knock on wood.
Anyone know where I can find seed potatoes in the fall? The only thing that Travis has failed to mention, because for some god awful reason he doesn't grow, are strawberries. If you plant june bearing strawberries in the fall you get huge yields of delicious berries by the next April/May. I recommend getting plug trays of Chandler/Ruby June from Ison's Nursery or from Hoss Tools. Why does Travis not grow strawberries? Strawberries are easy to grow and sell themselves.
We have a strawberry farm right around the corner from us. The kids usually have a field trip there every year, so we get plenty of strawberries from there.
Travis; I purchased one of the Hoss planters about 5 years ago. I've struggled to get a consistent stand with basically every seed I've attempted to plant. I get hit and miss results. What do I need to focus on?
We’re did u get ur king of garden Lima beans? I ordered some this yr & they turned out to b bush type instead of vine😡. So I bed a new company to order from for next yr
It is so hot and totally dry in mid texas..not a drop a rain since mid may!!!!!! ...i could not sleep so im up watering at 11 ...idk why im bothering....everything is dying from the heat...EVEN OKRA AND field PEAS!!!! IM OUSHING 80 AND I DONT REMEMBER A HARDER SUMMER SINCE 1980...BUT DUE TO HEALTH IT WAS really really HARD that year..I GOT HEAT EXHAUSTION AND HEAT HAS BEEN A THREAT TO MY LIFE ever since... As i said many times im pushing 80...EVERY THING IS HARD.....and A PIECE OF ADVICE... no human should be LEADING the country OVer age 70...NO ONE...PEOPLE WAKE UP...
I would try drip tape on the veggies it be a big help not watering by hand 2 times a day. Also I heard that the potato in thief has taken 360 days vacation since he been in office also term limits for the whole bunch.
