I'm with you on direct seeding peas. I honestly prefer the seed space for flowers or other crops I need to sow, but I plant spinach around my onions like you did radishes. I look forward to seeing how yours do though! That could potentially be a good idea! Yay for 2021 planting!!!
Hello new friend. Happy to connect with you! Hope you can join me as well! I planted some of my seedlings today also. Thanks for sharing.
Omg great job starting your garden! It makes me go garden right now but I have to wait because I’m in zone 6 unfortunately
Great job and good luck, subbed.✌️
Nice to see young people interested in the earth and growing food to eat. Wish this was taught in school as a subject and schools would plant food instead of grass around schools. In covid times gardening keeps youth away from depression and boredom and its a satisfaction to see the plants produce lots of food. Keep it up.
get them gloves dirty girl! south central Washington here, our last predicted frost is in April but thinking because I'm on east side of mt adams if you're closer to portland. try sluggo, works great for slugs and cutworms. very notorious in spring. subscribing and hope to see more good gardening.
Love your vids
Can’t wait to see those onions grow.
I’m at a rental in zone 7A but I am getting ready for my homestead life! We have a little garden but chickens are coming in the future when we move
I am a few zones under you and I'm eager to start doing what you are now!!! Happy Gardening season
Why is this channel constantly showing up on my feed?? Some sort of special deal with YouTube or what?? Cut it out.,
Great information. Thank you.
Where are you located?
nice job
I just planted my onion start from Dixiondale here in Indianapolis
I really appreciate that you show us what to do with the garden bounty. Did you grow up in a gardening/preserving family? You seem to have such a well rounded knowledge and I am grateful to you for teaching me!
I just discovered your channel and am honestly so obsessed. I also live in the PNW and we are planning on building our own community/homestead on the coast of oregon within the next 5 years hopefully. your videos are helping me discover info i never knew i needed about gardening and canning! thank you!!
Radishes can be used as potatos in cooking soups and stews. They are a great way to beef up soups. They are also lower carb. Once you cook radishes they look and taste just like potatoes.
Great to see someone growing onion from homegrown seedlings. I plant mine a little further apart but I plant three together. They just push each other out of the way. At harvest start I twist out the largest leaving the smaller to grow on a bit. Radishes among onions should work a treat. You need a clip on microphone so that it doesn’t matter as you move around the garden.
What’s ur shop?
I don’t know but can’t you use slug poison around the edges of beds inside and outside of that raised bed and cheap salt which melts the slugs. If I see more later in fall I just put out some more bait I don’t see dead ones that ate the bait ,but you will see the ones that got in the salt if it bothers you put a little dirt or mulch over them.
If you want really large onions you need to plant them in the fall and they will be ready the next summer. You'll need to reem them out as they grow so they have room. They will start growing on top of the ground but that's OK. The roots are still deep in the soil. I just love you and your show. I can't get anything done for watching you. Good thing I live alone. Lol. I would really love to know when you took up cooking. You're so knowledgeable!?!
Becky, look up Hollis and Nancy's homestead. He gives step by step on every veggie to plant. And measurements of tools you can make to plant all seeds that makes planting faster and easier. I hope it helps. I know you're very busy. You could make them in the winter. Love you
Going back and watching older videos I missed
Have you thought about using copper tape around your beds to keep out the slugs? I have seen other PNW gardeners do it and I’m going to try it next season. I’m only about 30 minutes north of you in the woods so slugs are the worst!
I'm in the Portland area too and had always been told to plant my peas on President's Day, which I faithfully did every year and was always fighting slugs and rabbits as they germinated. Now I start mine in the greenhouse in January and plant them out on President's Day and cover them with wire hoops and row cover. It keeps the rabbits away and has seemed to work out best all around. Good Luck!
