If you really want to eat those turnip greens the way they are best- combine them with some spinach (optional)wash really well and put into a pot of water and boil them and throw in a piece of raw bacon or salt pork to cook with them. Once leaves are tender, drain but leave some liquid. Serve hot with cornbread- real cornbread not the corn cake you get at Marie Callenders. Put a large helping of greens on your plate. Crumble up a piece of cornbread on top of greens and mix. Sprinkle pepper vinegar over the top ( can be hot or mild) and salt to taste. Best served with some green onions and sliced vine ripened tomatoes as sides. Yummee. If you are bewildered by the pepper vinegar, look for some pickled peppers in the pickle dept of grocery store. You can store a jar or bottle of those in your frig for a really long time- years. Just. Continually add vinegar to it when needed. Thus is how collard greens and turnip greens have been eaten in Louisiana for generations.

I love growing brassicas all summer long here Im Colorado where the growing season is short. So far, no luck with cauliflower. They always develop flowers instead of a head. Ive also grown broccoli for years but last year was the first time I actually got nice big heads. They were gorgeous! Most of the time its more like broccolini. The only problem is that toward the end of the summer they get attacked by afids. Last year the whole Brussels sprouts crop was ruined by them.

Turnips are a favorite of mine. If you cut the greens off to use however you want to, peel the root, slice it 1/4 or 3/8 inch slices, then skillet fry it like pan fried potatoes with salt, and oil, keeping the lid on in the beginning, then remove it about halfway through. They are delicious this way! Somehow the frying removes the slight bitterness they tend to have and they come out almost sweet. And completely awesome!

Try boiling diced beets in some vinegar, sugar and some cloves (those small black claw thingies not garlic)
You can add a diced apple to the mixture.
Don't boil them to mush jus a minute or so is enough.
Its the way my grandmother made it and its great!
Cooled and draind in a salad is great too (you don't have to boil them if you use them in a salad jus let them sit over night)
Its a duch recipie

Awesome video, very helpful.
Kevin, what do you think about the Gardeners Victory Self-Watering Patio Planter, I saw you have the one with the trellis, I just picked up two and may get 2 more next season.
What sold me on these was that they offer the same benefits as a grow bag but look like regular planters.
Keep it up, I enjoy all your videos.

I've liked the video, so that's another excuse for you to return to visit Aotearoa-New Zealand sometime (when the borders to reopen. I love that you realised the great things to do with turnips here. turnip or swede and carrot was a staple of my grandparents' which I still get nostalgic over! I'll rewatch when we get near autumn/fall here!

On a radio show a few months ago, it was mentioned that the Brussel sprouts that we know now are not the same Brussel sprouts that we knew in the '90's, in that they have been modified to be less bitter. It made sense because my experience has been like yours, and so I did not do any further investigations. Great show. Thank you.

New pad? I just started gardening this past summer, but I'm in Vegas so it was a rough start. I have a nice raised bed that I recently built with some fall veggies you're reviewing in this video. About to start on my Dragon Fruit Journey as well: ) Love your videos man. Road to self sufficiency: D

Tip for people who dont like brussel sprouts, boil them (this reduces the time in the oven, bake some bacon pieces. But the sprouts in the oven with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and add the bacon. I tell you brussel sprouts and bacon is a match made in heaven

Hi, I have a question. you have square wooden gables or open covers over the planters I see behind you. Why is that? Is it just for looks or do they serve a purpose? Since they are so open, I don't think they cut the sun much. Hmmm? Interesting.

My dwarf kale survived last winter with -32 Fahrenheit. it didn't grow for a few months but it didn't die and produced many many lbs. still alive now, I read it's a biennial. I did have a row cover on it and let them snow cover and insulate it.

South Bay resident, here. I think I started my lettuce and kale too early facepalms but the swiss chard is doing great atm. My mother HATES the smell of cabbage and brussel sprouts. Wait'll she realizes I'm planning on making my own kimchi.

Finally I found a video on how to garden in California. I'm tired of watching British garden shows and shows from New England and trying to extrapolate. Fell like I hit the jack pot here in the Central Valley. Great show, very practical.
