I'm Tampa area, gardening homesteader. It's a completely different world of gardening than the rest of the USA. We need more of these videos. Love you guys 😊
Jim is such an inspiration!
Ideas, insights, tips, even green house design breakdown, all super useful for growers of all types and inspiring for those thinking of starting. Thank you to all involved in putting these vids out 🙏😎🌱🌱🌱

Thanks Pete, always love seeing Jim in action.
The peppers at 6:00 are indeed from Hungary. They are called Apple Peppers (Alma Paprika) here.
Yes it is from hungary stuffed with cabbage pickled with chilli for winter called ‘alma paprika’= apple paprika
Poopin in a bucket…AYUH!😂” The way life should be”❤️
Pete, I so much appreciate how much you share, and even more Kuddos to you for sharing what Jim is teaching us. Thank you. From what I know, Okra gets tough if it's more than 3-3 1/2"...
Jim is amazing he has so much motivation and a big heart we need one of him in every town
Yay 🎉 😊!
Thanks 🙏
Love the updates! Good luck team and happy travels to Jim 😉!
Hope Jim is not depressed when he gets back to Maine! I'm here and it's COLD!!!
I also use containers for 80% of my crops. Even sweet corn that does extremely well in 25 gallon pots. Had a huge harvest already and have another crop going now. I grow mostly tomatoes, eggplants, bittermelon, cabbages, asian wing beans, green onion, lettuces, and sweet corn. I do some little odds and ends veggies too. Also grow all my pineapple in 10 gallon pots. Had some ridiculous harvests. Container gardening is so much easier in terms of moving crops, eliminating crops, and controling where you can move them within the microclimates. But for a large scale farm of course it wouldn’t be so cheap.
If i had a nickle for everytime i drive up and down 19 and turn off to cruise by Jim's place i could buy your biggest mango in the nursery.
Good to see the pound hounds in action and loving nature's bounty
Wonderful Tour! Thank you Jim, Tanner, and Pete! Awesome!
Glad you enjoyed! 😎
Always a good day when I get to see Jim and see what he's doing and hear his wisdom regarding gardening. Thank you both for sharing 😍😎
I would love to see a video at the beginning of each month with zone and what to plant for Florida. Or a sit down with Jim and Pete and a list of what to plant and when to harvest on SW Florida. Just a thought. Thanks for all the videos and updates. They are really helpful to us newbies😉
Jim, Pete and Tanner can't believe how fast the season went. Every year we say we're going to come over and buy some produce from you and every season by the time we get around to being able to do that, you're leaving. But as always, thank you sharing all your wonderful information, knowledge, and time helping us become smarter and more productive "Gardner's" the Nana's from Central Florida
I've never had luck growing tomatoes standing like that I just let my tomatoes fall over and my best tomatoes are underneath in the shade
I love your channel and Jim has inspired me to start growing and I'm transforming my yard into a forest. I dug out my grass a couple weeks ago. I had a question for you guys, How do you guys manage grasshoppers? I have baby ones all over and they are eating my plants. I had them last year as well, I used Neem oil and diatomaceous earth and it worked but not great and had to spray the Neem oil multiple times a week
The first thing to find out is ...are they a regular green grasshopper or are they black with a red, yellow, or orange, stripe down their back? If they are of the black and striped variety, they are called "Lubbers". You don't want them in your garden! They will decimate your entire Garden. Neem oil will not kill Lubbers. I don't know what has worked for other people but for myself, I have found that a mixture of original formula Dawn and water (1 to 10 ratio)will slow them down enough for me to stomp on them. They are poisonous so do not touch them they will bite you. It is easier to kill them when they are no bigger than an inch or so big. If you're going to use an professional insecticide do so early but the insecticide will affect your garden. I don't because of Chamileon's and good bugs. The sooner you can get them dead the better based on info from a licensed professional exterminator. They live in the soil in the ground and maybe they've come out because of your digging up your yard. The birds will not eat them except one bird in Georgia. Ours came out about a month ago and have been fortunate enough to be able to kill them as we find them. Last one I destroyed was 2" long and developing it's camouflage coloring. I found all this info on Google when we started gardening, 4 years ago, in our yard.
Maybe it would be helpful if Pete or someone of his experience could share what they've had to do regarding something like this. The Nana's from Central Florida
cant wait to see you guys 4/27/24~
I planted my onions given to me by my neighbor around November and harvested them around March.

Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for these videos pete, Jim is a living legend. What was the variety of okra you mentioned? Bonar?
Jim is amazing 🎉🎉❤
In the Netherlands they use automatic window openers for the greenhouses. They do not require electricity or a complicated computerized system. It works with an oil filled strut, and the oil inside the strut expands at a certain temperature which you can set between 16 and 25 degrees Celsius, and when it heats up it pushes out the rod from the strut, which in turn opens the window from the greenhouse. And when it cools down to a certain temperature they automatically close up the window again. The opening and closing from the window goes gradually according to the temperature. They look similar to the struts that you find in the trunk of a car for holding up the rear hatch when you open it. It's called an automatic greenhouse window opener. Of course the window can be plastic as well as long as the window opener has some sort of frame to push against. They sell the struts separately or combined with different types of hinge mechanisms.
The big advantage is that it automatically takes out a very nasty negative variable. There is no more guessing or care or worry about the temperature. And it eliminates the risk of loosing an entire crop due to overheating or mold. And you can keep the doors from the greenhouse closed which will keep out the animals. And you can install as many as you like or need, at any height that you want, they all work independently form each other.
Please let us see your chickens 😊
I'm going to be moving to Florida Port Richey soon I hope. And I'm hoping to be doing some bag growing. I'll be watching a lot of videos from here. I live in Connecticut and I'm an okay person I had good luck with eggplant cucumbers and tomatoes mostly but I'm going to be trying some different stuff keeping my fingers crossed because everything's getting so expensive
Great video.
Jim I saw you at the common ground fair last year but was too shy to approach your booth.
That was awesome advice about growing leeks! Thanks guys
Would leaf Amaranth work in spring for you guys? It's prolific and tastes great.
Wow very inspiring ❤
if every person watching this video pitched in just 3 dollars to Jim's go fund me we could shake up the goal bigtime 😳😳
You might not be allowed to put another well in.
Please record how that process goes.
I had an old timer Florida well driller (in orlando) come out to my house and he said it’s nearly impossible to get new well permits if city water is available.
I hope Jim can find out about his water. I couldn't grow much except native Florida plants, in my place in Arcadia. I found out the aminopyralid and other defoliants getting sprayed in the cow fields and under the power lines, was migrating into my well. I could use harvested rain water but not my well water.
Jim love what you do i tell everybody 2 check You out. Does New Port Richey mulch have weed and feed? people like there weed and feed
Our summers are different, as are our soil. But Sweet Potatos do love sandy crap soil but watering bags all summer seems like a hassel.
blanching the leeks
What do you use to treat for the fire ants in any other pesky Florida bug
❤
Great garden, what part of Florida are you in, I'm growing in Jax. I'm experimenting with okra and squash in containers with a drip water system. Cheers from Jacksonville Florida 🌞
New Port Richey (Central West Coast)
Scissor door, did that come from Farmers friend? Did Jim order from Ace he said?
How can the season be over? It’s not even June.
Everything is bolting and finishing for the Spring Season
Tomatoes plague me, too.
Ive grown big plants like that but they dont produce much.
Ive hit them with lots of bone meal and still not much.
Was hoping to see Jims tomato greenhouse work out but looks like its just didnt happen.
Know of anyone who's done really good with Tomatoes in Florida? I think im finally over it.
The time, space, and effort could go to something more productive.
Someone said the variety Everglades does very well in Florida. It's a cherry type but supposedly very good there. Ever try the variet traveler or traveler 76? It's out of Alabama so can handle the humidity and heat 🤷♀️...
@spirit ranger 9 Those everglades do well here, you're right. I've never heard of that traveler 76 variety. I'll look into it. Thanks. 👍
