1st… Morning! Been looking forward to this.
Same here with the gnats… Looks awesome Rich and Holly. Please film how to string the tomatoes. Have a great day!
Best performance beautiful sharing stay connected dear friend Farah with kitchen 💖💖💖
How is your garden growing? How are the weeds and bugs?!
90 seconds, that's about how long I watched before the bellyaching got to me. If you don't want that place, I'm sure lots of people would be glad to accept the gift. Did you stop at 3:1o?
Just fyi.. gnats and such are drawn to aftershave, hair gel, and all that stuff. I worked outside for 3 years, and we couldn't wear any of that stuff or even makeup. Take care everyone.
Everything looks good, Rich! And those gnats are 'gnatsy' 😉 That's interesting about that Napa cabbage bolting like that. Hope to see you and Holly soon.
I can see the gnats, wow. The garden is looking good. Do you drill holes in the bottom of those troughs?
Your garden looks like it’s off to a great start! I can’t wait to see that trellis covered with tomatoes!
They say the MN state bird is the mosquito!
Ate the first black cherry tomato from my garden last night!!! Thought you would have a live so I could brag lol and ya didn't go live. Oh well it was really good….the vines are covered and are at the top of the trellis.
Corn is harvested, ripped out and okra planted in its place. My collards were looking sad, so harvested one last round of those and ripped them out, only one had bolted. My San Marzano tomatoes look terrible. Probably because of all the rain we had. There are tomatoes, but not like I expected. Not sure I will grow them again. I've yet to find an heirloom tomato that does well here.
I bet that Napa cabbage just easily bolts, because your other cabbage hasn’t bolted. I love the weed fabric we can’t use that here with the Bermuda grass even double layer that horrible grass grows all through it. I have to use thick plastic the weeding is the biggest nightmare for me. I have noticed a lot of gnats and flies yuck! I normally don’t see that many. I love the new containers wow! I wished I could cover the entire ground and plant in all tubs or raised beds. My garden is not flat and it’s on a slope. It’s been unseasonably cool here. Not Normal??? Ya’ll the garden looks amazing! Have a blessed day! Wendy🙏🏻🇺🇸
We are on the edge of having a very serious problem with grasshoppers here. They can decimate a crop in a flash, not to mention our garden. ☹️
I just planted my cabbage, maybe try another variety? We need to make some kimchi!!
Hopefully the bugs pass Rich, everything is looking good there.
Take care,
Annette 🌺
The garden is looking awesome! Thanks for the update!
Hey rich sorry we haven't checked in lately super busy trying to build our homestead. things are looking good up there. you'll be havesting soon. take care and be safe.
Bugs are crazy here too with the rain, and we have had some good storms and winds as well. It all looks great Rich. Love your tubs.
Love you farm looks great I really love to watch your chickens have a great week
I admit I had to chuckle at each sidebar about what was broken or how something didn't go as planned, because we are going through the same struggles and it's 100% relatable. There are always good days and bad days, and on social media people tend to only show you good days, so don't let others discourage you from showing the "real" days, whether good or bad. The garden looks great and I hope the Minnesota bugs ease up for us all because they've been brutal!
Everything looks amazing Rich.. I Can't wait to see your tomato alley fully covered. 🍅
WoW those gnats are crazy.. Nice new troughs!
Strange to see you this far behind Texas. Im about burnt up. Your videos will let me watch new growth for a few more months.
Like #30 my FRIEND. Lots of little black flies here Rich! You have been busy, despite the WIND! I like your tubs.
I live in South Dakota and the gnats are miserable this year. You can barely stand to be outside.
Oh yes the obligatory weeds and bugs.
The gnats are the worst everyone is covered in itchy bumps from the bites. Makes it very unpleasant to be outside.
Rich, there is nothing more irritating than having gnats (except for mosquitoes) fly around your face when you're outside. I wonder if a beekeeper's mask (I don't know what they are actually called) would help keep those flying pests away from your face. Hmm… I can just imagine the talk that would go around my neighborhood, they would all think I had finally lost my very last marble if I wore one of those here in my small town. Where you live, out in the country, folks might not even see your attire, should you decide to wear one! If you do try it out, please let us know; also, we will need to see pictures!
Seriously, I have a question, do you cut holes in the bottoms of your galvanized tanks before filling them with soil and planting them? I have cut out the bottoms of my 85-gallon black Poly Tanks so the earthworms can get into them and for water drainage. I don't know if this is necessary, any thoughts?
I hope you and Holly have a great week. ~Margie🤗💐🐝🦟
Awesome stuff, it's the first week of winter here but the weather is still decent so I am trying to do as much as I can before I get shut down due to the weather.
The chicken in the background at 3:44 made me laugh. Looks like she is trying to help with the gardening. Great video.
We just got through gnats down here. I thought life on a fatm was easy 😂
Good to see the garden and wind has subsided.
Love that cattle panel set up
Cheers J&C 🌱👍🇸🇪
