Project Updates, Amazing Sweet Potato/Ornamental Corn Harvest & Tree Pruning! Martie: Have been pondering on this for about a month since you were so downtrodden because you would be losing one planting row if you used 40 inch walkways. Plant two rows together with no walkway in between, now piggyback the next two next to the fat row and follow with your wide walkway. Next set of four heavily planted crops taking up about 6 feet (so you can still reach in from the walkways but this way you are using that mid walkway instead of leaving it fallow. Still each of your rows may have 3-4 strips of drip tape as theyve been before, but now are butted up sideways with a companion row with its watering system, followed by the next row of 3 strips before you have your utility row to allow your access to both sides of the rows 4 and 5. Row 1 becomes 1 and 2no walkway, old row 2 becomes 3 and 4 now the walkway which has double duty for row 3/4 on one side and 5/6 on the other. Youll need some practice keeping the thugs in their own area, but these others that play well together are candidates for optimal use of space. Its just your access that is restricted to just one side, not two. Visual learners, practice with forks laid out on the counter in your current configuration. Add one more between any two leave space for walkway, take your next set of two, add one in the middle. I think with some thought, yoube gained about 1/3 more total growing space, not lost 1 growing row! Of course, no offense taken if you use another method.

That celosia is gorgeous. I think you'd just have to use Aaron's one-per-pot idea and just drop a handful of them in a tall glass vase. I know that's not your style Laura but for this flower I feel like it's the only way. Speaking of floral arranging, my hub brought home a thick dense bouquet this weekend and I thought it needed arranging. I pulled everything apart and started arranging it in a big round vase, Laura style, using pebbles from the garden to anchor everything. There's eucalyptus draping over the sides, tall mustard-colored filler in top and beautiful fall colors with sunflowers, mums and marigolds. It's so pretty and interesting! Thank you so much for the inspiration Laura!

Laura I'm a horticulturist from Australia. Love you both for the enthusiasm and the great inspiration and information you give to people. I am worried by that Solanaceae species, the little pumpkin fruit you have in your vegetable garden. I am pretty sure it could be that genus but I might be wrong. They are and can become really bad weeds. From the Solanaceae genus we have many weeds in our country, fruit in this group is toxic to horses and can be to humans as well, I am sure your are probably aware so forgive me if you already know. Much love and best wishes to you and your family.

Late comment (house renovation had me missing too much Laura) but I planted up my 12x12 planters along my drive with ONE Supertunia Bubblegum each and they were FABULOUS! They filled in very quickly and thrived. I too like to jam as much as possible in all containers typically, but I thought Id experiment this year. Ill likely do it again next season, but with something different.

The one that you called as Pumpkin on the stick looks a lot like an Ethiopian Eggplant aka Bitter Tomato.
And if it is, you don't want it to get ripe, they are best eaten when they're green. They're bitter yet very nutritious. In my culture, we just boil them and eat with rice by peeling the cover later. Or we just fry them.
Hope this helps!

Hi, I had just harvested my sweet potatoes and 2 things happened. First - some of the potatoes were splitting, Im thinking its from all the rain weve been getting recently. Second - there was MANY bug bites/holes on them, so please tell me what I can put in my soil to get rid of them or make them stay away from my sweet potatoes. Thanks

With holiday season fast approaching, it would be awesome if you could do a video on forcing bulbs indoors for Christmas (Narcissus, etc. which bulbs work the best, lighting needs, soil, staking, watering. and timing! Wouldn't that be fun! Also, are you doing themed Christmas trees this year? and if so. any new themes?

21: 01 That weird brain looking plant would be great for Halloween, not gonna lie. Normally I strongly dislike them cuz naphthalene smelling weird old ladies are kinda the only ones that grow them and it's a freaky looking plant. But Halloween. yeah, some black sweet potato vines, some googly eyes and you'd be set.

It was such a joy watching you harvest the sweet potatoes. Thanks for the tip on curing them; didn't know. Also fun to watch you go through the vegetable and flower beds. So exciting. And Benjamin, oh my what a joy and a blessing he is! What great memories you are creating for him. Thank you for sharing with us
