Wow, 43 degrees and it's not even summer yet! Your garden looks great. Congratulations on the garlic!
Fantastic grapes and the kale so tall.Its Spring with temps like that? Wow! That is some serious weather you have there. Yeah Malabar spinach will do very well for you. That mucilage is a bit much for me but in cooking I think I prefer it better. Mine self sowed this year. Those cucumbers are cool looking. Hope to find them here. Great update.
Wow, the garden looks very beautiful.
Great vid, thanks !
The climbing spinach normally becomes the mainstay of my pesto in summer. I haven't planted one as yet this year. I'm having a crack at Okinowa spinach instead. The yards looking good mate.
G'day Mark. Great looking corn, mine was looking good but it got beaten around by the heat and lack of water. Your garlic looks awesome too – I've not had much luck growing it up here (pick it before it rots lol). I grew malabar (climbing) spinach a while back. Be careful, it grows like the clappas and I found it a bit hard to stomach. It was easy to pull out, but it does drop seeds later on. Your garden looks great for the weather we've had, mine looked dreadful Sunday arvo after 2 days of it. Fingers crossed we get a bit of rain in the next few days. Cheers
WOW, Mark! It's really starting to heat up where you are! We are going quite the opposite as it is getting really cold here! I love the different variety of things that you have growing, especially the tropical plants, and trees! Makes for great video!
Thanks for the tour Mark..
Sowed out a whole pack of Egyptian spinach seed & not a single one popped :/ It's one plant that I wanted to add back into the aquaponics as it did so well last time I grew it :/
Is that all the grapes that will set for the year ?
Cheers
Thanks for the tour Mark! It's all white here now, I need you guys down under to keep me through winter 😉
That was an interesting tour Mark. A lot of what is finishing up in your neck of the woods is only just starting in mine.
Mate…! 43c … Boy I couldn't take that heat if we were to come back now. So, here's a question. What time of the year are you able to grow toms and Cukes with the flies hammering them?
What other fruit trees could you grow in your neck of the woods? Limes? Any apples? How's the quails and chooks fairing with the heat Mark? Cheers David.
Thanks for the great tour, Mark. I see you are going through what looks like one of our summers in, Florida. The bugs usually end up with more food than I do. We have had cold weather here recently and my banana plants really suffered. The fruit still looks good though. Another cold front is coming through tonight or tomorrow. I've been debating whether I should cut down the fruit and let it ripen inside or not. Always great seeing your garden. Take care, my friend.
Do you have radicchio, is a vegetables very good, the colours is purple?
Will stay tuned as we have similar climates. Peace and love from Houston,Texas, USA
