Welcome to my channel, Our Tropical Soil, where you can learn how to grow food in the tropics!
Every time I go out to harvest I am amazed at the abundance that can be grown! This garden harvest video was filmed in early February. I harvested lots of greens, perennial peppers, radishes, green beans, tindora, guavas, and mulberries. In South Florida we have two main seasons called the cool season and the warm season. The cool season takes place from October to April and the warm season takes place from May to Septermber. In the cool season the weather is good for growing temperate veggies like brassicas and lettuces. In the warm season we can grow plants that love the heat such as okra and corn. In the warm season is also when most of the fruit trees are fruiting, however, we do get some fruit during the cool season also!

I love your delight with the harvest! I feel exactly the same about my plants and trees.
Thank you! I love growing my own food :)
Awesome harvest! I’m in South Florida Zone 10b. Please continue doing content it is great to follow fellow Floridian gardeners to see what works in our area.
I am looking forward to this winter harvest, my favorite time of year gardening in the tropics
Thank you! What are you growing now? I am hoping to have more content up sometime in the future. Hopefully in the next couple weeks.
Right now I am growing various tomatoes, lettuce, bush beans, kale, turnips, radish, bok choi, herbs, blackberries, strawberries, pineapple, bell peppers, and tons of flowers. The peppers have been terrible this year, lost a bunch to white fly😬 and the fruit I am waiting to produce since they were planted long ago. The blackberries are supposed to produce in the summer here.
Awesome! Sound like a lot growing on. Failures with the crops are super common so don't get upset about it. I have seen that perennial peppers that are smaller do much much better than the bigger bell peppers
I found a hidden mulberry growing in the back yard. I didn't know what it was until it fruited. I was pleased to have an edible fruit. I've been making sorbet and frozen cocktails with them.
How have I only just found this channel? Loving what you're growing, cant wait to catch up on more of your work!
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing, I've been looking for some good things that grow in central florida, some of these may be good.
They for sure will do well. Just be careful with some of the more cold sensitive annuals during the couple cold nights you guys have up there.
I think you need a table. LOL. Very good crop.
Haha thank you!
Hello from fort.Lauderdale , I have a Cachucha too and i love it 🥰
Indila 888 Awesome! These pepper plants are incredibly productive!!!!!
Great Job/ Harvest! Amazed by the size of fruit trees and crops, helps tremendously in the planning and planting of my garden, Thank you!
Daniel Lopez Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the video and found it helpful :)
Amazing garden harvest! That hot pepper plant was freaking huge!! Definitely want to try to grow tendoori(not sure if spelled right lol)
Haha. Thank you! Yes the pepper plant is huge but it actually isn't that hot. You can eat it raw. Well I have two varieties. I don't remember which one was in the video. But one of them is slightly hot. The other one doesn't have any heat. And it is spelled tindora.
Yes! Back to vlogging again :)
OnCloudNine62 Yes! :)
I love gardening too
Awesome! What do you grow?
Good video... plants are growing well 👌👌 keep it up....
Thank you so much!
Very impressive! In what area do you live? There are so few channels that showcase growing food in South Florida.
Thank you and yes there are not many people here gardening to begin with from what I have seen. There are many people with fruit trees though. I am in Miami-Dade county.
I'm currently attempting to grow ají picante (habaneros) and totally forgot to plant the seeds 😆😆😆 after watching your video I'm going to try them again - this'll be my first time. I am growing some cubanelles though that has been growing for a while. It's funny watching your ají cachucha bc the plant is so big, is that normal for plants of ajíes?
BANE Helsing There are many perennial peppers out there. It seems that the perennials all get quite big. 5-6 feet tall! I have some young cubanelles, hopefully they grow well! I think the habaneros also might be perennial but I’m not sure. I don’t think I’ll be growing those any time soon since no one in my family likes spicy/hot food. I hope they peppers do well for you! :)
Where do you get your seeds? Soil? What do you use as amendments? Do you fight pest organic or non organically?
I like to buy my seeds mainly from rareseeds.com. If I cant find something I will try the echo bookstore shop or growincrazyacres.com . I have a very laid back approach to gardening. If something doesn't want to grow I don't force it to. I use compost and mulch to improve my soil. Sometimes I make compost tea and use that. As for fighting pests. If it is aphids I just spray them off with the hose. However, I find that if a plant is strong, healthy, and growing in the right time of year then it will have very minimal amounts of pests. Sometimes I use diatomaceous earth or neem oil.
hi from brickell! id love to buy some of those peppers off you!

Nice video
Thank you!
Nice u had banana plant there
Yes I have a banana mat and a plantain one too.
New sub
Thanks for subbing
Do you fertilize? Those leaves are huuuge
Dion Gill No I don’t. The mustard greens and collards were transplanted. When they were seedlings they were in some store bought soil that likely had some kind of fertilizer. Once transplanted they didn’t get any fertilizer at all.
Any chance I could get a tindora cutting from you? I live in Port st Lucie. They fruit faster from cuttings I can't find any for sale on line..will pay to ship or pick up I'm not to far from you I think.
Rick O'Brien Email me at ourtropicalsoil@gmail.com or message me on Instagram @ourtropicalsoil to talk more about it.
@@OurTropicalSoil Thanks I emailed you let me know if you didn't get it TY
