How about planting some Irish potatoes. Buy some potatoes and leave the in a bag and they will send out slips planting 3 to 4 in one bed will give you pounds of potatoes. Since Miss Fle loves chips she will never have to buy in the market.😊
Nasto you can also plant sweet potatoes just prepare the bed and plant them also the Irish ☘️ ones too I admire your efforts and like your garden so much ❤
4:45 The new young plants that develop against the base of the mainstem are called "pups" 43:22 It depends on where you were raised. The names I know are Hibiscus/Jamaican Sorrel/Zobo/Roselle. I have developed a LOT of Ancestral knowledge about this plant over the years. 1:00:25 In tropical Island nations they are *scotch bonnet* peppers used in vegetables & stews. In latin nations, they are a sweeter pepper known as *aji dulce*/cachucha peppers (and have a much lower heat profile than scotch bonnets) and often used in salsas, guacs, & ceviches. Your garden is MASSIVE AND BEAUTIFUL. There space FOR SO MUCH FOOD!!!! It makes My Soul smile that your process seems untouched by gentrification!! Just beautiful, healthy ORGANIC harvests on the way for your Family!
🇯🇲🇯🇲 Nasto, like you I really enjoy gardening. It’s very relaxing and surely gives a sense of purpose to plant and see them be fruitful and multiply. The hydroponic planting you’re doing with the onions is the first for me seeing them being planted at that stage of growth with some totally submerge in the water, while others flip with roots system above; waiting to see the result. Those red “strawberry” lookalike flowers are love and known in Jamaica as sorrel. The fresh or dried leaves are boil and made into a blended ginger and rum, cold cocktail drink consume throughout the year but most often on Sundays and holidays as an accompaniment to lunch or dinner. In Ghana, I’ve seen it drank warm as a morning beverage. Those bell shape peppers are Jamaica’s favorite hot peppers known as “scotch bonnet”. They’re very flavorful, though very hot but some would say there are no “ real cooking” without at least one scotchy. Personally, I think scotch bonnet exemplifies Jamaicans mindset, flavorful but aggressive.
Perfectly right young banana is called suckers. So is plantain. Your garden is beautiful I just planted onion seeds yesterday so I am watching to see how you do yours.
Nasto I wish I could get my hands on your garden. It is so dry where I garden right now. Only yesterday I sowed some pepper seeds. I wore disposable gloves removed the seeds and placed them on top a regular plant pot. These I will try to water daily until they sprout. This will take about a week. Putting them in the ground as you did will be a longer process and you should remove the green ones as they may not be so mature. Again wish I could be there but do your thing. Looking forward to learning some things. I will tie up my paw paw trees and see what happens. Keep on Bro.
I Love how Yeyo Have a passion for his Job, when a person put Love in to what they, have a passion to do, it will always turn out amazing, keep up the great work you guys, job well done, We Love you guys in the USA 💪❤️💕🥰
Nasot I am here smiling and picturing that one day you will be laughing and telling us about how those pumping seeds germinated and took over your garden. They were too many seeds for that space but as you said you will share the seedlings.
I watch every video that you post Nasto ,honestly right now i have many skills that i acured from your videos Nasto... watching from kisumu big love beoo❤🎉
Nasto, I cut the onions in half as you were doing an then plant the bottom with the root in the ground/dirt then they grow. The red and yellow ones looks like peppers which I use the skin/ the outside part for cooking and the seeds are inside which you can let dry for a week I r plant right away, the flavor is in the skin and the seed are very spicy. (Hot). But if you let them rot you waste the best part of it. But maybe where you're things are done differently.
Hey Nasto, when you can please add composted manure and keep adding organic matter. Minimize digging so soil life such as earthworms can take over and enrich the soil
Banana off shoots are called suckers. You had it right brother. You were explaining what how that banana was different but you stopped half way? Is one banana tree for the sweet bananas and the other for green banana (matooke)? Reduce the water in the bucket so that the cut onions can float easily.
Nasto don😢put peppers to Rot they are very good to cook and eat they be all little bit spicy but it is very good to Eat JUST REMOVETHESEEDS And let them Dried And then Plant them. Bklyn NY good luck
That red plant in the new pumpkin bed is a type of hibiscus named Roselle, also called sorrel in Jamaica. It is believed to come from West Africa and was taken to the Americas by transported Africans in the 16 and 1700s.
Correct. I try to plant every kind of pumpkin seed I get my hand on and run into trouble with overrun when the rains come. They take over the land and stops some things from growing.
