I show you how to lay weed barrier cloth under my watermelon vines to keep the weeds and grass from overtaking my watermelons. I also have some garden updates.

Great that you did get some nectarines! Enjoy. Your watermelon patch looks great. Excited to see what you harvest. I'm not a homesteader, but delight in watching many of you have such great successes with the challenges mother nature can give you. I continue to learn great tips for my own gardening. Thanks. Be well.

Everything looks so beautiful! Have you considered raising your watermelon's on a vertical cattle panel? Melons, cukes, winter squash and many other vine-plants will climb if you help them start up. My first experience was in the early 90's with cantaloupe melons and I thought they'd fall off but a good oldtimer friend show me that when they are green they'll stay attached well. He showed me how to hold the vine and rotate the melon to test if the melon was ready to pick. (we both liked them ripe). One's not ready just twisted the vine but the ripe ones twisted off at the point of the melon. Easy-peasy! You've both created a very beautiful garden and I thank you for sharing it with me. From Butch at Sand Hollow Idaho.

@RaheemMcdermott
@RaheemMcdermott 2 года назад
You know watermelon vines themselves will send out roots that burrow into the ground for more nutrients and better harvest. So blocking the vines from seeping into your soil is preventing that extra boost.

Do the vines like to crawl on mill fabric or weed barrier cloth ? Do I just leave the main system open then cover the rest before they start vining? First timer here 😅
@petebeasttexashomesteading

The watermelon plant will grow out of the hole made in the weed barrier cloth and grow on top of the weed barrier cloth making it much easier to grow and harvest.

Great share! Your garden production is impressive!!! Does that landscape fabric stop all of the weeds and grass from coming through? AND, can it be rolled up, stored, and used the following season? Many Thanks!
@petebeasttexashomesteading
@petebeasttexashomesteading 4 года назад
Thanks, No weeds come through the fabric but if there's a small hole in it, they will find it. I think it would be too much trouble to remove it every year. We don't remove it, It's pretty tough stuff and should last many years.

Chili wedito incorrect spelling. Delicious for frying pinto beans. Soak dry beans over night then boil a few hours or use pressure cooker or start with a can of pinto beans. Separate water from boiled beans save water. Add two or three yellow chili's to fry pan with 🔥 hot oil and stir for 1 minute. Add beans minus water and fry for 3 minutes. Add water, salt and black pepper to taste. Smash in pan, blend or enjoy whole. :) Yellow chili's make refried beans 😋🤤 yummy! Thank you. Southern California U.S.A. RU-vid

This is be 3rd year of watermelon patch but 1st using this fabric. Research is saying soaker under, so curious what method you’ve found most beneficial​@@petebeasttexashomesteading
