To all my Florida gardening friends,I’ve been following Patrena’s videos for some time, the reason is ,,we’re moving to Florida Tomorrow, I retire from the Railroad Today,,,yahoo,,and we can’t wait to move south and start our garden thanks to Patrena we’ve learned a lot about gardening in the south,,,see you soon,,
Congratulations on your retirement 🥳
Hope you love it here! It’s great to be free from the job!
Good luck down here, you will love it!
You know what I love the most about you Petrina? Taking the time to respond to comments to your videos. You spend so much time/research/effort/growing/learning and sharing with us. I know its difficult and as you grow, it will become impossible to answer or respond to all comments...I am just glad I am here with you in the beginning and seeing your blossom. Although I dont know you....Patrina..you are my fav of youtube. Thanks for helping this 64 y/o lady grow with you.
Awww 🥰 You are so sweet. One of the big reasons I started my channel was to build this community so I absolutely LOVE responding to comments. Even though I haven’t met you all in person, I already feel like I know you. I hope that I’m always able to keep that part of the channel. It’s my favorite ❤️
Your ending pep talk was fabulous, a good reminder to this old gardener:)
That’s so nice of you. Thank you 💚
Hope everyone was spared any damage or injury from Idalia. We were traveling and were evacuated from the East Coast so came back to Tampa Bay. No worries as there is plenty to do at this time of year in the garden. Tomatoes, tomatoes, tomatoes. Made another rookie mistake and over planted my arugula, broccoli, lettuce before we went camping . They are looking great but prob should’ve spaced them out more, uo oh. Still learning w Patrina’s help.
I overplant all the time. I like to think of it as back up, lol.
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9a do you thin or just let them grow when you over plant?
I will thin them but only after they have gotten bigger and are a small harvest size.
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9a genius!
Thank you for sharing, i am so happy i found someone in Florida to help a beginner gardener 😊
Welcome neighbor 👋 I’m so glad you are enjoying the videos
Another chock full video! Just what I needed to keep my mind off of you-know-who. Yeah, your Chloe knows she's a stone cold killa...she kills with cuteness! Your bed look amazingly lush! Thanks and stay safe!
We always say if she wasn’t so darn cute she would be a demon. Lol. Stay safe lady.
I loved this video. It was so spot on. I just harvest some pretty weird shaped sweet potatoes from my garden. But they taste great!
A win for Ugly Veggies! 💚
You are an amazing communicator! Great job once again!
Awww. That’s very kind of you. Thank you
You went so fast with this info I couldn’t write it down fast enough
Wish you had a cheat sheet for this..
thanks lakeland
Good idea about the cheat sheet
Great video and thanks for the planner. We had a nasty stormy night with the hurricane but we are very lucky here.
I’m so glad you are safe. Enjoy the planner 💚
All the best to you as you deal with the fallout of hurricane Idalia! 🌀
Thanks so much. We got this 💪
omgawwd yes stay safe, I'm in North Lauderdale and got slammed just now with 40 mph winds came out of nowhere. we are getting the out bans..ugh!
@@lmphashby I’m still waiting for the winds up here. Should be coming soon.
I just love listening to your videos. They are just so full of good information and are direct to the point. I have been gsrdening for msny years and i still learn so much. Thanks.
Florida Gardener
Zone 9a Your neighbor in Citrus County
So thankful tonight that we still have power !
Haha! Me too. A/C is such a blessing!
I feel like I just got a PhD in veggie gardening. Thanks!
Haha!
Praying for you and your family safety tomorrow.
Thank you so much. We are all prepped and ready so the waiting begins
Fantastic!!! Thank you!❤
Glad you liked it!
Be safe during the up coming weather and keep up the videos
Thanks, you too!
thankyou for all your great advice!
You are so welcome 💚
I realllllly like B HIVE watering meter it's wifi and app enable ! I love it
That’s what I have and I’m in LOVE with it. So easy!
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9a I'm telling you right now girlfriend this is my best app the best thing I ever bought for my garden
That's the same watering system I have also and I love it.
I find it so easy to just pick up my phone and water all of the areas very early in the morning before the plants get hit with all that heat and prepare them for the day.
Hey, are you guys ready for this hurricane? Be safe ❤
Yes ma’am. Prepped and waiting. Sounds like it’s going to mostly miss me so that’s a relief.
Another awesome video with so much information. This is gonna be one of those videos I watch a few times with my notebook. You answered a lot of questions I didn't even know I had, lol. Thanks again & stay safe. Already getting some rain in Lutz/Tampa.
Glad it was helpful! It’s getting pretty dark over here. Expecting the rain soon too. Stay safe
Very nice. Thanks for sharing. I’m in zone 10A.
Hi neighbor 👋
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9a Hi 👋 I’ve been watching your videos for a while now, gotten lots of tips from you. Keep them coming. 🙏🏽
@@TitasIttyBittyFarm thanks so much!
I'm a soil nerd also.
Great video. Wood ash is another good additive to compost.
I have issues in my garden with sun because my yard is wide open. I have my asparagus on the east side and fortunately have huge live oaks that shade the west. And I love the leaves they give me for composting I still have a center portion of that has a scorching spot that gives me problems. Im thinking about trying a sun shade of some type next year.
I need to get my act together with fertilizer. I use way to little. But i do have lots of duck and chicken manure that i compost. I also have tumbler for house scraps that i tumble then add to my compost pile of leaves, chicken and duck poop and bedding. I also used the fall oak leaves in the compost piles.
Love the finger water trick. Been using it for years. I dont get my nails done so ill stick to that😂. Getting soaked now from hurricane but didnt water anything last three days.
Love your approach to pest. That is my goal. I run my meat chcikens through my garden in between planting. This help with weeds and bugs and also adds the poop. Basically, i turn my garden into a two month chicken run to grow out my meat chickens. That is my row garden. I do have tomatoes, pineapple, asparagus, and a raise bed that is off limits to my birds👍🏻
You have a great set up. I hope more people in communities start making use of any available space.
I like ugly veggies too. Actually i have a couple ugly chickens too. Ironically they are my favorites 😂.
Thanks for video. I learn something every time or get a laugh here in there. Im a warrior in a garden. And I enjoy my new hobby of Gardening. It helps me dealing with things I experienced while in combat.
Your garden sounds beautiful. I really want to try asparagus again. How is yours doing? I think gardening is one of the best hobbies/lifestyles. It helps with so many aspects of life and learning. My husband is a vet too and he likes helping in the garden, especially with the projects and builds. He also enjoys the food too 😋
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9a asparagus is doing well. I over watered it a couple weeks ago. I left the sprinkler on accidentally. So I got some yellow in it. But new spears have appeared since so I think it will be ok.
Fresh veggies are the best. I wouldn't say my garden is beautiful but it's like the ugly vegetable thing 😂. I do have a wild flower cover crop now over 3/4 of garden space with lots of yellow orange flowers and butterflies everywhere. My meat chickens are in brooder and will be moved into that space in a couple weeks. I also have the laying hens and ducks running through now. They love hiding in the flowers.
I'm waiting a little longer before I plant fall veggies. Last year was a mess as I'm sure you know. Hot to cold back to hot.
@@boonmsgt i always say, A productive garden is better than a pretty one. I would love to have chickens and ducks. Maybe one day. It definitely doesn’t hurt to wait a bit. Fall is so unpredictable
Pest control..what do you use on your sleveless skin. I need long sleves boots and netted hats here in my part gulf coast zone 8-9. Love your channel.
Thanks. I haven’t created a mosquito spray yet so I just get bit. Having a lot of different plants has encouraged the ecosystem to balance itself so it’s not terrible but not great either lol
❤. Stay safe and let us know how your doing through this storm.
I definitely will. We are all prepped and settled in now. So far so good. Take care
Do you have a video on root rot? Or even better one for tomato root rot? I am in Jax, FL and I am almost certain that my Biltmore tomatoes have root rot. They are so delicious. I want to save them!!
I don’t have a video on that yet but if you want, send me some pictures to my email (about section) or on instagram and I can take a look.
Another great video! When using large containers for veggies, do layer the same way as the raised beds? Also do you “refresh” old container soil or reuse it?
Yes, I do. I actually just started doing that this year. I will mix some of my used soil with the layers as a way to refresh it.
Thanks!!
Great video! I'm surprised you don't use 0-10-10 fish fertilizer. Hope you stay safe down there
I’ve never been able to find a brand with those numbers that are organic. Which brand do you use? I love trying out new fertilizers.
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9a The Alaska Fish Fertilizer . Walmart and Home Depot have it. It's like $20 to $22 ish per gallon. I suppose it's as good as any brands.
@@milkweed7678 oh okay. The Morbloom one? I’ve been hesitant to use that one since it’s not certified organic. I know it’s made from natural ingredients but haven’t been able to get details on why it’s not certified. Maybe it’s a time or cost thing. Do you like it?
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9a 👍
Girl there is the biggest bug on your shed 😮😂. Sorry i just noticed it moving as you were talking. I woulda died 4 times if I was there and noticed that lol. Ok back to listening 😂
🤣🤣🤣 I noticed it when I was editing the video. I’m hoping it was just a lizard but who knows in my yard.
At 28:00 min I was so sad 😿 bugs and insects are just like small animals. Just because they're small doesn't mean they don't feel pain or suffer 🥺 please consider how it would feel to be stuck to sticky tape to death, or to get sucked up into a machine 🥺 I'm new to gardening so I don't know the perfect solutions yet, I'm going to look into this more. But if you're reading this and you're more knowledgeable than me, please do the least amount of harm to the insects. Please catch and release them, move them to somewhere else. Please don't hurt the bugs 😿
My house and our rv carport run east and west so my planting area is south of the house and north of the carport. So this time of yr my carport throws shad to the north and the house is full sun. And it's the opposite in the summer. Is there a difference in growing in the shadow compared to under shade like a tree, or canopy? Is the light level still good for sun loving veggies?
The shade from your carport would be the same as from a tree so you would want to grow more shade loving plants. Most green leafy vegetables can handle some shade.
Do you ever use Diatimatius earth for bugs to your plants? I live in Tampa and trying to grow with my greenstalk. Also, I planted seeds in a seed container for the first time, I have it in the window in my office to get sun however, I am not sure if I am watering enough or too much. I had Hollyhock flowers sprouting and then they died. Am I supposed to keep the plastic cover on the seed container or leave it off? should I put the seed container outside or is instead by the window okay? should I put a light on the plants? so trying to learn.
I have used it in the past but I don’t really use it anymore. I left nature do it’s thing for the most part. You want to leave the tray on top until they sprout and then take off once they come up. The window is fine to start but once they sprout, I would suggest putting them outside or under a grow light because a lot of seedlings need more light than what a window provides. As for watering, I water until the soil is dark in color then add more once it starts to dry out and lighten in color. I have a seed starting video that goes into a deep dive. There should be a playlist for it. Check it out.
They don’t need light until they sprout up. The humidity done is to keep them warm and allow for some water. Hard to help though not knowing your location or temps.
Sorry Petrina, I didn’t see your response when i posted. 🤦♀️
@@janicemoyer854 no worries at all. Your advice is spot on! It’s awesome to see the community helping each other 🤗
What kind of beans do you have growing right behind you in the video they look Really niyes my long beans are dwittering out But I planted new seedlings we'll see what that does I'm further down South than you and man oh man the heat is brutal down here zone 10B
They are called Thai soldier beans and they LOVE the heat. They do great in south Florida. The heat has really been super brutal this year for sure.
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9a do you have seeds to sell?
@@lmphashby no, I’m sorry. I don’t sell seeds. But you can find these at theurbanharvest.com
@@HomegrownFloridaZ9a I just ordered them and a few more thank you for the advice is this place in Florida
@lmphashby it is. Elise, who runs it is in St Pete
I know this isn’t what everyone wants to hear, but please do not promote Azure, as they are on extremely right wing radical social media and every dollar we give them, some part of it goes to support extreme politics. I know most people don’t pay attention to this, but if we don’t want our money to support extremists, we shouldn’t use Azure for anything.
