Wee, I direct sowed a bunch of carrots yesterday, sowed cabbages and cauliflowers into some seed trays, and transplanted some bok choy into one of my raised beds. I'm planning to really nail some successions of all of those this year. I learned the hard way that butterfly and sweet pea flowers should be planted now, after trying to do them early spring and getting very poor results, so thanks for the validation Jacques! I'm also gonna plant some amaranth and some other flowers for spring next year. I might be brave enough to give more peas and beans a try, I really don't get good results with either: /. I'm so excited and ready for fall!

I made a fantastic discovery this year! I had a volunteer Maypop come up right next to my trellis. I had no idea we had a native passionfruit, much less one that’s beautiful and tastes great. I let it grow and went out a couple days ago and a fruit was on the ground completely eaten by something. So I figured they had to be ready. Imagine a Concord grape, lemon, and pomegranate with a pineapple bite at the end. I’m in LOVE! My new favorite fruit! I’m so glad some random animal pooped there!

Thanks for the video. Love the new guy Jake. He sounds cool like a surfer from the beach. ( Didn't realize it was Jacques at first. Bring him along more often. I'm waiting for my garlic order now. Probably get here next week. Some company called botanical interests, ever heard of them. I need to order some onion and turnip seeds and I'll probably throw in a few lettuce. I'm in zone 10. I can prety much plant any time.

I would love to hear whether you actually like those limas. Because I do not like lima beans and used to have to sit at my dinner table for an hour, feeding my cat a lima bean or two, spreading them around on my plate to make it look like I'd eaten some until my mom would say, Just eat 2 bites. blugh! Of course, that doesn't stop me from wanting to grow them tho. haha

I grew broad beans as a cover crop this year in some new beds/dormant beds. I have never seen nitrogen nodule production on a legume the way i have with these. Its always cool to inspect my pea and green beans roots and see the little nodules, these were on a whole other level, good 1-2cm nodules on the roots it was crazy

Hahaa, last frost we had in the beginning of May and about a week ago (somewhere mid-September) we had our first frost. And in the end of October we usually have our first snow. So we are already done for this year here in Northern Estonia. Good luck to you all though. Still fun to watch: )

If those tropical lima beans are purplish, they may be madagascar beans aka christmas beans. A fantastic perennial dried bean - they produce and produce and produce, and apparently more each year. I'm not in a tropical area but they coped fantastically through an extremely hot summer.

The tropical perennial Lima bean looks a lot like what we called Madagascar beans in Australia. I grew two vines that gave me over 20kg of beans. Insane production, super creamy and superb in Hungarian vegetable goulash with liquid smoke. If it's the same bean, you're in for a treat!

Jake! haa!
Y'all are funny!
Jake & Eric hang out together in the night garden, right!
By day, they mysteriously meld into the back wall mural, experts at hiding there, much like a praying mantis hides in the bushes.
By night, they raid the garden for their munchies!

I hate lima beans! Once had to sit at the table until I ate the last lima beans in a bowl of soup- Sat at
that table for over an hour for not eating The lima beans in the bottom Of the bowl. Will plant just about anything except lima beans. ;)

I'm zone 7, but Hairy Vetch did some wonderful things as a cover crop for a giant bed I just reclaimed the winter before last. And it does a nice job outcompeting perennial weeds in the spring.

Fudge your sponsor, and STFU with your San Diego zone. We above the 45th parallel don't care about either. Your videos can be good, but sponsor huck tah and premise of this is just no. Good day sir.

Just a thought, when you give recommendations maybe say what zones you recommend growing things during a particular month. Even if its just posted in the bottom of the video

Try Scarlet Runner beans come spring. lovely red flowers and the beans are speckled purple and black. They are a pole bean and need room to climb. Check them out.

Ooh special thank you for that turnip suggestion! I'm in southeast Texas and have had trouble with turnips before. I will definitely try this variety!

Suggestion when you want people to notice the size of a seed. Try having a ruler and something well known like a coin. Interesting video.

Vetch grows wild in my yard and its my favorite tiny flower. It also goes to seed and looks like tiny little bean pods. Adorable.
