Girl let me tell you what i had for supper. We had crowder peas, new potatoes, sliced german johnson tomatoe, banana peppers (all from the garden), fried chicken and cornbread with watermelon from the garden. It was a real feast. I love eating food i grow
Your harvest is so beautiful and inspiring Mrs. Barbara. Our tomatoes are putting on weight, no blushing yet, but these are the biggest I’ve ever seen in our garden and only. The 1st two had blossom end root rot, likely from the heavy rains in May. Thank you for sharing as you learn, because it really helps us here in VA 6b/7a. I used the Florida weave with 6 foot stakes for our indeterminate tomatoes and will keep you posted on how they’re doing. See you next time!
Hi Barbara, I started watching your channel earlier this year during your seed starting series and have been enjoying your content. Yes, your tomatoes are beautiful indeed. Please get back on the horse with the Brandywine. I am not a big fan of tomatoe, but I grew Brandywine Pink three years ago, and it was delicious and just about converted me. I have grown them ever and enjoy eating them on my grill cheese sandwich on sourdough bread. Happy Gardening 😊
@@RoscheetaMonique Ok good to know! I have just been using those in my water and cutting that part off so if you don't see me on video next week then you know something lol
Oh my goodness! What a beautiful harvest!!!! I pulled in my onions today. The grasshoppers are horrendous here right now. Who knew they liked onions?!? The fall, Lord willing, will be epic! I was able to have three small concrete pads laid to have raised beds put on top. Take that gophers!!! 😂 Keep growing!
Your harvest is wonderful.I've just been trying to keep our garden and animals alive.118 today and tomorrow 😢But it's supposed to cool down to 110 by the end of next week.The weather man actually said,cool down to 110.😂Today outside just long enough to get horses sprayed down.It is painfully hot.
Hi Barbara, I am so so happy for your tomatoes and all the other vegetables that are blooming and coming to harvest time in your gardens. I enjoy watching you with that happy spirit you always have. Im in North Carolina but if I was closer I would join the team and come help you in your garden. I'm a country girl so that would be fun for me as I was raised up helping my grandparents in the garden, picking, peeling and helping to can vegetables.Take care you and the family and God Bless. Love, Ms Elaine.
Most tomatoes that you see and buy are indeterminate. Roma is the only determinate variety I have growing now. Here is a list: www.skynursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/tomato-list.pdf
I tried growing green beans for the first time this year. I believe they are called Kentucky pole beans. I've gotten 2 beans lol I've seen lots of flowers popping up but no beans yet. I'm thinking about ripping them up and starting a new succession of pink eyed purple hull peas. I'm in NW Louisiana Zone 8A/B (depending on who you ask lol)
@AGardenersJourneyHomestead that's it! Kentucky Wonder is what I planted. Lots of flowers right now so hoping it's just behind the purple hulls. Pretty sure I won't be buying them again if they don't produce in the next week. I'll just rip them up and plant more purple hulls lol I have a small raised garden
Yeah, jute twine isn’t the right twine in your situation. It is a natural fiber that breaks down after a short time and has too much slack in it. Using a synthetic twine is better or 100% hemp twine.
I just heard one guy to say we shouldn’t prune our tomatoes. They claims it will be disease. I did prune about 2 tomatoes plant but haven’t prune the rest.
When you say jute, is it a natural fiber? My understanding from other channels that use this method is that if the jute is in the ground it just rots and then breaks as the tomatoes grow.
Can you do a video on your purple hull pea harvest and processing. I’m growing them for the first time this year. My dad said once the pole beans start making it’ll keep going til fall. Great harvest I’m happy for you.
Congratulations! Tomato season! Mine are almost done… I’ve made all I want with the tomatoes…. Giving them away now! I’m tired of working out in the garden as it is SO HOT here.triple digits…110today.
