Absolutely perfect delivery, you anticipated every question. Make more videos. Please. And you never stopped to talk to an interrupting pet...what a joy.
Im sitting here eating sesame snap bars and just realised "ive never actually seen a sesame plant before" 🤣 your video was great, very informative, thank you! As an aside, you are absolutely beautiful, wow!
It is so interesting how some things never even cross our minds to grow. The word "seed" is even in the name. Definitely on my list to grow this year in SoCal. They taste amazing and if they like hot and dry soil, my yard is perfect for them. Thank you for this video!
Tried growing sesame last year, and the flock of chickadees that showed up was unbelievable. They even dug up my baby beets. I'll try starting them indoors and just up-potting them until they're too big to be dug up by the little fiends. Thank you for doing this one. I hadn't realized how tall the plants were. Best change where I had intended to plant them.
thanks for sharing your idea about sesame plants and seeds, i have one plant growing in my garden but, i did not planted this, it's suddenly grow in the pot where my small fire tree plant grows, just today i search what kind of plant is this and i found out it is sesame. now it has already a lot of fruits and i am very happy about it. i can plant many of this after i harvest all the seeds. thanks a lot!
My best tip: throw it on the ground and ignore it. I kept failing at it because I kept trying to baby it. Sesame ought to be grown more often in zone 9+
I took the trouble to prepare an allotment: weed, plow, mulch, and spaced-sow with care a pinch of seeds every hole. Only one plant came of it. Two other allotments, at the same with the aforementioned, same batch of seeds, all plots had good sun, one was even on a gravelled slope, "poor soil"; with cast sowing. The plots came up very thick and dense without problems. They take a beating from sun and wind without complains. If you plant them with space, it will become heavily branched and grow taller and wider. They definitely do fine, sort of like weeds, all up against each other. But, really, even with the resilience, it still all comes down to suitability to the environment. Because here, on Ometepe, Nicaragua; the farmers have tried black sesame's with less success, the white or brown ones do well.
I'm so happy with your video! I just never thought about sesame before. I've tried soybeans, moringa, roselle, lots of 'uncommon' plants but didn't even think to try growing the seeds I love and buy to eat which were in my cupboard. This year I'll stick some in the ground and next year buy some that may be hybridized to grow in humid climates. Florida is not very dry. I think if I put them against the wire fence on the north side of my garden, they will have stability and possibly I could cover them if it gets just too wet. This will be a fun experiment and thanks for your video!!!
I came across a deficiency of copper video(which can lead to a breakdown of collagen) it's very important for ligaments tendons joints will help prevent hernias. Sesame seeds was one of the things on the list to help Scotch this problem. To Scotch-to stave off 👍🏼🤷🏼😁🥳
What an interesting video! I love growing unusual plants, and I love *sesame* *seeds*, so I'm definitely going to grow these this year! I have long, hot summers here in Northern California, so the plants will love that, and they look *much* simpler to process than the Amaranth I grow. They come out of the pods so cleanly. 😊 Thanks so much for sharing about this great plant!
"What does a sesame seed grow into? I don't know, we never gave them a chance! What is a sesame? It's a street... It's a way to open stuff!" Mitch Hedberg RIP On a serious note. Thanks for the videos. I also live in mesa and they have been an inspiration and great source of info for the valley gardener.
This video was very helpful ~ thank you! I'm going to try starting some now in zone 8... shouldn't get frost until mid-November or so, which should hopefully be long enough to get a crop, but if not it will be a fun experiment!🙏💕
Update: I ended up getting 1 Mason jar full of the regular sesame and 1 cup full of black sesame. I loved the flowers and found out we had hummingbirds in Atlanta. They couldn't get enough of the sesame flowers.
I love sesame! I've been wanting to make black sesame paste for a bunch of desserts and pastries for a while now. Do you know if sesame plants do well in grow bags?
You did not mention at all how you sprouted the seeds, to evenually getting them to grow to maturity. Your video was about " From Seed to Plant to SEEDS "
Hi there, greetings from Sacramento, California, I never would have guessed that Arizona and Sacramento were in the same growing zone but I am happily surprised. Regarding sesame plants, how much depth do the roots need for this plant to thrive? Would a one foot depth suffice?
