I live in the USA, zone 7a. We get cold to mild winters and hot and humid summers. I planted mustard greens, kale, lettuce and spinach last Spring. We had a heat wave one weekend in April and everything bolted, in one weekend. What can I do to avoid the bolting, especially when the heat wave hit early in the season?
thrusting eruptions… this guy saying it makes it not dirty somehow…
I've gotta say — I wasn't expecting to hear "thrusting eruptions" in a video about vegetables.
I have some jerusalem artichokes that just keep coming every single year.
clearly i am forgetting some, but it's VERY HARD not to, in my experience.
one of my neighbours planted some in her flowerbed some years back, she hasn't been able to get rid of them either.
Excellent…must start growing..
Asparagus looks like someone pretending to grow asparagus with no idea how they grow
I am growing Jerusalem Artichokes for the first time and I planted them in autumn. Will they be ok? (Great video, by the way!)
Leeks are poisonous to dogs.
African Potato Mint… eat the bulbs
My eggplant is perennial in Florida. I cut it to the ground and it grows back.
I have a huge 100 foot back garden in Kent with rich well drained soil which is perfect for root veg.
BUT I also have a family of Town Foxes living under the decking of my neighbor where his dog can't get at them!
They just dig under the big fence he put in and wreak my back garden and not his.
Since they are fully protected by law I can't harm or hurt them at all.
So I can't grow any veg here as the foxes pee and poo on any thing growing, they dig up any plants they chew on anything too.
They even pulled my satellite cable away from the back wall of the house and chewed it in half.
I had to put a fence around the two big tub planted patio type fruit trees just to stop them being ruined by the damn foxes. I had a nice well grown hazelnut tree in a big tub My mum grew I had after she died and soon after the foxes came here they peed on it and chewed it,
and almost killed it? it never grew any nuts again and the middle is dead stem now I managed to save it enough to grow still but the tree won't produce any crop of nuts now!
So much as I wish to grow veg I can't the damn foxes ruin anything not sealed off. I can't really fence every thing it be too hard to grow and look after it and costly to do?
I have a limited budget and only rent this house so I can't do much to solve the problems.
Now I know why foxes are so hated.
Horse radish…it's so prolific, that it's best kept containerized. You can eat the leaves (they taste like peppered lettuce – kind of like arugula), and the root as well (but in small quantities only!)
Thank you for reminding me about my hostas. I'm thinking about trying some this spring I have two different kinds. The one in the front yard is ginormous the one in the side yard got trampled by my crew that was working on my new heat system and air conditioner.
Hello. Thank you for a wonderful video! I just found this.
Can the Jerusalem Artichokes be harvested the first fall / autumn? Or should one wait until the second fall / autumn to harvest them?
great video =] thnx
Great video!
Mannnnn, thanks bro I have wild babbit leaks thought they were garlic, tried to keep the flowers off the ground. You just educated me sir. Now can you tell me where modern day suffolkshire is? My family tree goes there at 1598. Thank you and have a great harvest!
I dont get the drama and lying by channel owners, "FOREVER" seriously PROVE IT!…..
Maybe this is the key to the vegetable shortage in some regions. People just don't bother to grow them anymore. It's fairly easy. Take an old throw away flower pot with dried out dirt in it, put a piece of potato or an over ripe tomato in it, maybe an onion. Water it well and see if it will grow anything. It costs nothing.
I didn't like asparagus until I lived in Montana for 4 years. It grows wild. Now I love asparagus.
Thank you for all your videos .lurning a lot ,and its very calming to see the videos
I live in coastal zone 10 and I got 18 slips from one Hannah variety sweet potato I had purchased. I planted the slips and I harvested about 30 pounds of sweet potatoes. I put the pulled up vines in various compost piles I have around the yard. Now I have sweet potatoes growing all over the yard and I get bags and bags all year 'round. If I did't like sweet potatoes I would just about call them invasive.
The great thing about asparagus is it is the first crop in the spring. I have rhubarb, and horse radish, too.
Don't tell Bill gates about this
1:49 this man just ended veganism
there are so many veggies in the world that you will never find in a grocery store
A guy with a British accent using Imperial measurements… This is how it should be, and my world feels right again.
Oh man I can't grow vegetables, I don't have a cute dog standing and the side supervising… I guess I have to go get a shaggy dog
