I'm on a fish emulsion watering mission, 5-0-0 on my garlic and some onions. So
far the growth has been amazing. Onions have gone from 4-5 leaves, up to 8-9
leaves in just 2 weeks. And garlic has gone from a few tiny scape's to cutting
110 off this morning. Lastly, our Leeks that have grown notoriously slow are a
foot tall and got toilet papered tubed for blanching this morning.
Now Bethany's Fox Farm approach on our Tomatoes is next. The why is self
explanatory. But to pruning we are cheating a bit. We're growing them up a
cattle panel, but allowing 2 main suckers to grow up with the main stem, fanning
1 to the left, 1 to the right and weaving them up the panel. So far they are cooperating
and looking awesome. This I'm hoping to 3 main stems and much easier to prune
moving forward.

What a difference a couple of zones makes! (I mean, my logical brain knows this, but it's still startling sometimes) I'm zone 6 and I let my oregano bloom every year because the bees go berserk for it--it's one of the earliest nectarfests I get to watch in my garden. It gets cold enough here that I've not had to worry about oregano seedlings everywhere. (We will not discuss the thousands of seedlings from my neighbors rose of sharon that I have to deal with every spring)

These monthly videos are pretty cool. I wish you all had some one going over what to do in high altitude deserts some where like New Mexico or Arizona. Trying to keep my garden alive in June/July when it can be over 100 for a month straight is pretty hard. Especially since we tend to have more water restrictions. It would be cool to get more ideas what pro gardeners do out here in these conditions.

Working on tomato trellising at the moment, in little bits around the heat. I could have got it all done yesterday but a man ended up ruining the groove I had after petting my garden toad with his nasty self. I am carrying pepper gel in the garden now and I hate that, but I still love my plants. Getting cucumbers and even some watermelon are getting pollinated!

4: 31 this is why I LOVE that you incorporate people in different hardiness zones. I was feeling bummed out looking at your zone 10 peppers already huge and flowering, feeling like I was too far behind to get anywhere. I felt much better seeing peppers that look similar to mine in June, giving me faith that I might still get a harvest!

Love to see a side by side experiment with a few different tomatoes - beefsteak, cherry, sauce - one where all the suckers are pruned, one where no suckers are pruned. Would be neat to see the differences in average size of fruit yielded, total number of fruit over the season, etc. sounds like a pain to run the experiment though

Only thing Iam doing is watching everything die in relentless rain and cold weather. Even my cold weather crops like lettuce are drowning and stagnate in the cold. Everything that isn’t rotting is being eaten by the snails: ( 2023 was a throwaway year and now 2024 looking the same.

Hops are an amazing trap crop for Japanese beetle. Yes, blasphemy, but works. Train horizontally, then morning or evening have bucket of water with soap, tap the vines, the beetles drop into. Been doing it for years, they prefer the hops to all other vegs/herbs.

The difference between the lovely brick, no mess container rooftop gardener and the wild hair, wind blown, crazy fertile beds, Florida gardener was pretty fun and satisfying. They seem so different but would talk vegetables like old farmers if they were together.

Oh my goodness roasted leek scapes are better than asparagus! There, I said it and you won’t convince me otherwise. They’re sweet and crispy with just a hint of onion flavor. I’d grow them just for the scapes.

Yeah washing your hands and pruners is total paranoia, the mildew spores are literally in the air all around you ready to infect any weak or susceptible plant, it wont happen cause you didn't disinfect pruners

Grinding up 2 aspirin tablets in 2 gallons of water and foliar spraying your tomatoes and squash should help heaps with the powdery mildew. Aspirin (salicyclic acid) is a plant growth promotor and immune elicitor

I have to ask, what do you do with all that you grow Do you sell it, give it away, open a roadside stand. I just can't imagine having so much stuff for one or two people.

I am recovering from surgery so my garden is not where I want it to be but hoping that because I’m in Oakland (10a) I can still do some planting.

Marigolds and wine cap mushrooms would be my go to for combating root knot nematodes. I have both spread throughout my garden.
