Last year, I was picking dozens of cabbage worms off my brassicas daily until my sunflowers bloomed... After that, I removed probably a total of five the rest of the season. It turns out, the finches showed up for the sunflowers, but stayed for the worms.

@judifarrington9461 Год назад

I was tossing bird seed in my cabbage bed for a little help from my bird friends. :-). Adding dishes of water throughout my garden help bring in the cabbage moth predators too.

Bluebirds did the same in our garden last yr

@speaklifegardenhomesteadpe8783 Год назад

😂🤣🌿🤠👍🏻💕 That's great, love it! I'm going to intercrop to try to trick things and experiment. I'm training my crows and birds to eat in certain areas away from my plants even though I know they'll find my peas, strawberries🍓 and whatever else they decide I planted for them. 🙄😳😁🌱🧑🏻‍🌾🌱💕🐦🌾🦅🌺🌾🕊️🏵️🦉🦚🦜🌿

@jillian1515 9 месяцев назад

Food grade Diatomaceous Earth sprinkled on your cabbage or vegetables will kill worms organically. I'll never again use anything else.

"And, I'm no longer an adolescent." Awww, you're still so adorable, though. I've been following you since you were just a wee thing and watching you grow has been a pleasure, Luke. I'm so proud of you and Sindy!

@stephengrubbs6365 Год назад

I love that you are redoing the old planting guides. They were always my favorites. I’d love to see one on Tomatoes, squash, Peppers, cucumbers, asparagus or Brussel sprouts.

@daniski2229 Год назад

Nice Video Luke. I love listening to videos like this. I like that you are redoing the old care/planting guide videos, it’s not a quality issue for me, I believe the way we grow and plant guides change and it’s good to update our knowledge every now and again. Sometimes we will stick to the old ways and sometimes we might be inspired to try something new. I have significant back issues and RA and I am always looking for good sources of info on gardening accessibility for disabled gardeners. I also am always looking for videos on reviews of garden tools that would make gardening easier. These are just ideas for videos I don’t see often.

@kele1264 Год назад

I really love that you've put so much time and effort into re-doing older videos. I would never criticize the old ones. I applaud the improvements in your skills, and I'm glad for the incorporation of modern products in the re-done and new videos. It has been very nice to see your family and your company grow, and it has been wonderful buying seeds and other products from you. I wish you continued growth and good fortune; I wish you and your family good health and happiness always.

@debichats8634 Год назад

You are amazing! I don’t see you as an adolescent, BUT I’m probably older than your mom…..You have more information than other RU-vid gardeners…..and let me tell you, your seeds are INCREDIBLE! Everything I’ve planted (most from MIgardener) are up and growing strong!! And your prices are completely affordable! Thanks Luke! You’re my seed hero!!! ❤❤❤

@TristansMom10 Год назад

I garden in grow bags and pots on my patio. It would be great to see more information about patio gardening. I know you had a series previously but It would be great to follow along with you if you have things you plant in pots. Also seeing more direct sow videos would be nice as well. I dont have space to start my seeds indoors so to be able to follow along with you on things that were direct sows would be great as well!

Just in time. I'm growing cabbage for the 3rd time. The first time I grew it, the head was the size of a golf ball, probably because it was in a 2 gal container. The second time was way better, It was in a 5 gal bucket and it produce a head the size of my hands. I have some more seedlings ready to plant. I'm super excited, and thank you for the tips!

@mitchellgrell5716 Год назад

Thank you, Luke, for the informative video about planting cabbage - full of good tips. I condition my (sandy) soil beforehand with bokashi and terra preta in January and February. In Germany we intercrop cabbage with celeriac or celery root (a wonderful vegetable by the way) to ward off the cabbage moth. To prevent the moth altogether without using a pesticide (can be detrimental when later making sauerkraut) I put the cabbage under tulle hoop tunnels. We get good results every year.

@VintageVibesHomestead Год назад

Thank you so much for this re do video! I have struggled the past three seasons to grow Cabbage and this year I really want to be successful, Cabbage here in Canada right now averages around $8 for a medium sized Cabbage in the grocery store! Just extortion! I would really love to see a video again on how to grow celery or cantaloupe melon please 🙏

@roxannemcclintock1495 Год назад

This was a great video, Luke. I love that you are "redoing" older videos

@deannewilliams3321 Год назад

Thanks Luke! As soon as this video was done I went and took care of my cabbages. Weeded, trimmed off bad leaves, planted marigolds all around, filled plastic smoothie bottles with good organic stuff and holes in the bottoms, mulched with grass, covered with a dome of chicken wire and got it all watered in. Fertilized yesterday. I’ve been hopping all over trying to get it all done at one time. Maybe concentrating on one thing at a time is the way to go. I also refilled the plastic green tea bottles with organic stuff in the main garden (mostly green & red beans and cow peas) and got all that watered in. Worms and plants are loving it. Awesome that you are updating old videos!

I starting watching your channel this season. Watched mostly recent videos but stumbled upon a 9 year old video this week.

One thing you didn’t cover or I just missed it. What will cause your cabbage heads to split?

@lauriedavis4045 Год назад

Heavy rains or overwatering. If you're getting close to harvest you can stop watering, shield from rainfall, or give the head 1/4 to 1/2 turn to sever some water-absobing roots.

@IAMGiftbearer Год назад

This is very interesting! I wonder if watering with beneficial nematodes would also prevent Root Knot nematodes? I have not tried growing cabbage before but if I can find a space for it I might try 1 or 2 to see how they do in my yard. My yard has lots of trees and only spots of sun which change throughout the day, so I would not want to risk wasting a full row without knowing whether it gets enough sun in any of those areas. I might also try it under a grow light indoors. I ordered some things from you and looking forward to getting them and trying them out. I have two Cherokee Purple tomato plants that I got from Bonnie's through Tractor supply that I'm waiting to put in the ground until I receive the Trifecta Plus fertilizer in the mail. I planted some seeds I already had in peat pellets and one of the rows is carrots. Could you do a video on carrots? I will probably plant mine in a container of some sort.

Anyone ever tried incorporating mushroom mycellium into beds to combat nematodes. Certain mushroom species prey on nematodes. Oyster mushrooms have this ability I think

@christineedwards4865 Год назад

That's interesting. I've used spent oyster blocks in the garden before, but I had no idea it could fight nematodes, and have never had a problem with them. It does alright for adding organic matter if you spread it thin enough in the soil, but it doesn't have much in the way of nutrients and could pull nitrogen from the soil if it's not fully decomposed, so is better off composted.

I am confused. I looked for a video where Luke explains how to collect cabbage seeds but I could not find any. All the videos said that cabbage and carrots are biannual so it would take 2years to get any seeds. I purchased from you Late Flat Dutch, Golden Acre cabbages and both packages say they are annuals. I also bought Danvers 126 which also says annual. My question for both carrots and cabbages with these specific plants is when will I get seeds and is there something I need to do different? t Thanks. I enjoy your videos and I especially like them because we are in the same growing zone.
