This is the first time I heard of kaolin clay powder, seem like a better alternative to diatomaceous earth. You should make a video about it.
I love hearing the rooster and the cardinal sing in your garden. Sorry about the grape vines.
You grew a yellow slide too! Garden looks beauty. Inspiring again ty
Great update! 💚
Oh yes weed tea is great btw! I got a lid for my bucket 🤢
I can relate for sure! My onion bed was getting over run with grass and weeds and I pulled and mulched it but I still lost that battle. Other then that I've been pretty lucky with weeds. As for pests mostly Slugs eating EVERY LEAF off my potatoes making me pull them early. However, it did force me to toss some back in the bags and hope I can get another harvest by Thanksgiving.
I love your channel. Great info and a real gardening video.
What's the white clay looking stuff on your cukes and winter squash? Does it work against powdery mildew? I'm trying to find a organic method of fighting that here in the deep south, some organic things help a little but doesn't last long and it's back with a vengeance. Our humidity is the enemy of all cucurbits. I grow Seminole and Cherokee tan winter squash for their resistantance but even they eventually cave in to it. By the time they are ravaged by the mildew most of the winter squash are mature and can be harvested. Like me you have crowded so much in I tend to lose track of all that I have until I see it's getting past it's best date lol
Good idea letting the Beneficial insects handle it.
Is that a humongous Oregano plant in your herb bed? Damn! You and your garden are looking great!
Man oh man. Can’t believe you keep up as good as you do! So much going on Jenna. Wow!
Enjoyed the tour!
Thank you Jenna. A few thoughts: Sugar spray has saved my cherries from the birds Although I have had 10/10/10 fertilizer for my corn, I think that the more rapid active liquid fertilizer is best for tomatoes, despite bone meal when planting. Here in New England, our potatoes are resistant to BT and Spinosad. I'm back to using to hand picking of the Colorado beetles and grubs as well as Garden 8. (carbaryl). However. 90% of my gardening is hand weeding/cultivation. Kind Regards, Craig
You are giving me lots of ideas on how to keep weeds at bay next year. This year it is a lost cause I’m afraid.
Great tour Jenna! You can really be proud of that garden – lots of work! Thanks 😊
hi jenna, can you comment on jerusalem artichokes as far as being worth it to grow and eat because of their ability to produce gas. this season is my first time growing, have not yet tasted
Your voice is so lovely to listen to☺️
Hi, Jenna! My landscape beds are horrific! I just have no idea what to replace all the weeds with. It’ll be addressed in the fall or maybe next spring…😆
Our garden was put in a month late due to weather in the forties at night and a few other things. Started some seeds late and putting in cucumbers today again. Anymore with the crazy weather, we just keep planting anyhow. It works. Just got garlic and had onions the last two days, and some lettuce which is fizzling due to the heat.
I’ve heard that “weed tea” is a good way to get rid of really tenacious weeds that will root in a compost pile (and is an alternative to bagging and tossing)like bindweed. Can’t wait to learn more about Surround! We had a terrible time with squash vine borers and other squash plagues but have resowed in hopes of getting a late season harvest. And WOW, those sunflowers are glorious. We can’t get them to grow well anymore it seems…critters often do them in.
PS The aphid/lady beetle story is incredible 🥹 I’ve seen the same happen in my garden. I’m so glad you shared this.
Oh my gosh!! My hubby and I found you on YouTube over this past winter and we are hooked!! And blown away and love all your lessons!! Thank you!!
What variety of bush beans are you growing?? I have a couple plants of Slenderette I like, I guess. And a row of “green stringless bush beans” I hate. They’re long & lanky with very few beans on them.
The part where you pull a couple carrots out the ground and take a bite of one. Lol. Sometimes this channel is something.
Thank you for showing us a working garden instead of something that looks pristine. We all struggle with weeds and pests. I also love mad hatter peppers!
Gardens have come up a treat even with the heat you are experiencing right now Jenna. Stay hydrated, wear a hat and put on sunscreen or as we say here in Australia….Slip, Slop, Slap.
I have cucumber beetles 😢 I tried natural spray and cayenne pepper and they are still after my cucumbers. Ugh
Thank you! The hustle to keep on top of weeds and pests this year has felt like an uphill battle. I love your real garden (and landscaping) and I thank you for showing us the weeds.
