My summer garden is replanted as I’ve finally settled in a bit more at the new Epic Urban Homestead, so I wanted to show you some strategies to squeeze out more harvests from a late summer garden. Get creative with your space, timing, and environment and you can double or triple your total yield from the garden.

New camera, new gardens! Hope you all like the new setup. Lots more to come…almost done with some major deadlines so I can get back to making vids for you more regularly!
Designing your raised beds so that they are slightly sloped towards the sun. The plants think they are a lower latitude
Growing Mustard Greens through fall and winter . They have a better taste when they get a light frost. I live in Victoria, Canada, so our winters here aren't too cold. I harvest Mustard greens all winter long when planted out in late summer/early fall
Plant in front wall or fence that faces South and has a clear view of the sun. The wall/fence will absorb warmth during the day and radiate at night.
I need a video of which seeds I can plant now.
LOL here you are talking about second sowings and I'm worried that we will get frost before my tomatoes ripen 😛 (3-4 'c at night here already)
It really is crazy just how much you can get out of a small space, in the right conditions.
thank you for information .
I’m trying taking cuttings and cloning plants to try and get a second harvest in zone 9b
Can you please make a video. Growing Malabar spinach Thanks, it’s been a request for sometime fro me
Hey Kevin! Love your channel and TT! This is my first year starting a garden and I am LOVING it! Planted Sweet 100 tomatoes, Roma tomatoes, potatoes, green beans, spinach, cucumber, green peppers, jalapeños, basil and parsley. I do have a question! When should I start looking for seeds for next years garden? I started a little late this year (Zone 6b) and I want to start earlier next year.
Wow, the epic homestead is shaping so nicely with edible life!
Hi Kevin, I was thinking about other ideas, for replacing your chain link fence that runs across the middle of the property. Making a wall instead of a fence?! These are just some materials you might consider…..
Interlocking concrete blocks
Cinder blocks
Natural stones
Recycled materials, bricks etc.
Using something other than wood, could give more privacy and a little more style (from both sides). I think that it would be about the same cost of the cheapest pine fence that you could build. Of course you would need to research this for yourself. Take care.
Can you do a vid on coconut seeds please
I loooove your content, and recently adopted some plants from my friend, who has the greenest thumb, and now I really want to get into growing my own plants on my balcony. I watched your video on plants that do well on shady spots, so that's for one side of my apartment.
But my other balcony is facing a canal with salty water and quite a lot of wind (but also loads on sun) – what would you recommend tp grow in this kind of space?
Thank you 😀
Big fan of your channels.
I'm having trouble with my Dracena Ray of Sunshine and I'm not sure what to do. I think I might have shocked it by leaving it in my car too long. Now the top leaves are very droopy, not all the leaves, and it's losing leaves from the bottom. Does anyone have any idea what I can do to save it? I thought this was a very hardy plant. Should I take it out of the nursery container?
Kevin said "AKA Fall's coming", I live 90 minutes from Kev and it's 108 today LOL (I know the Inland Empire and San Diego are vastly different zones)
PS You can call yourself an "expert" Bro, we wouldn't disagree (-;/
Excellent & enjoyable gardening knowledge
你好，我来自中国，我们公司是 生产家用温室大棚的。我想我们可以合作。请问怎么联系你
I have a question. I live in zone 9 I believe. Some 9 or 10 Northern Cali, and I want to know if I can propagate plants in the winter indoors? I assume I can since the house simulates the right temperature conditions, but still, I’m not sure if this is correct. Also, will tropical plants continuing growing outdoors during the winter? It doesn’t get below 40 degrees here, so they will not freeze, they should be fine. But will they continue growing?
Hello i am a beginner gardener from Los Angeles. Im growing in my back yard what is frosty date here and are the peppers cucumber and zucchini I bought 2 weeks ago not survive? Also i got a beefsteak tomato plant final start producing will they die?
Hey Kevin, love your content and your coloured grow bags- can share who the supplier is. I live in the Caribbean so we have no threat of frost but do hurricanes!
I am new to your channel. Which state you locating? I am sure at some point you already talk about it. Just trying to figure out of how much help I can get from your Chanel for growing in state like Texas (League City/Houston area)
Use Ellen White's method to plant your trees. I am a fan of your channel and I also am a new gardener who recently has purchased an acre of land. I live in San Diego area. So I started with planting some exotic fruit trees. My soil is pure clay like what we have in most parts of California. Trees are not growing as they should be although they look healthy. I am pulling 4 of my trees off the ground and replanting them using Ellen White's planting method. Do some research and you will find out how this method changes the life of your plants.
