    Last year, I was picking dozens of cabbage worms off my brassicas daily until my sunflowers bloomed... After that, I removed probably a total of five the rest of the season. It turns out, the finches showed up for the sunflowers, but stayed for the worms.

      I was tossing bird seed in my cabbage bed for a little help from my bird friends. :-). Adding dishes of water throughout my garden help bring in the cabbage moth predators too.

      😂🤣🌿🤠👍🏻💕 That's great, love it! I'm going to intercrop to try to trick things and experiment. I'm training my crows and birds to eat in certain areas away from my plants even though I know they'll find my peas, strawberries🍓 and whatever else they decide I planted for them. 🙄😳😁🌱🧑🏻‍🌾🌱💕🐦🌾🦅🌺🌾🕊️🏵️🦉🦚🦜🌿

      Food grade Diatomaceous Earth sprinkled on your cabbage or vegetables will kill worms organically. I'll never again use anything else.

  • @daniski2229
    @daniski2229 Před rokem +29

    Nice Video Luke. I love listening to videos like this. I like that you are redoing the old care/planting guide videos, it’s not a quality issue for me, I believe the way we grow and plant guides change and it’s good to update our knowledge every now and again. Sometimes we will stick to the old ways and sometimes we might be inspired to try something new. I have significant back issues and RA and I am always looking for good sources of info on gardening accessibility for disabled gardeners. I also am always looking for videos on reviews of garden tools that would make gardening easier. These are just ideas for videos I don’t see often.

  • @kele1264
    @kele1264 Před rokem +15

    I really love that you've put so much time and effort into re-doing older videos. I would never criticize the old ones. I applaud the improvements in your skills, and I'm glad for the incorporation of modern products in the re-done and new videos. It has been very nice to see your family and your company grow, and it has been wonderful buying seeds and other products from you. I wish you continued growth and good fortune; I wish you and your family good health and happiness always.

    I garden in grow bags and pots on my patio. It would be great to see more information about patio gardening. I know you had a series previously but It would be great to follow along with you if you have things you plant in pots. Also seeing more direct sow videos would be nice as well. I dont have space to start my seeds indoors so to be able to follow along with you on things that were direct sows would be great as well!

  • @mitchellgrell5716
    @mitchellgrell5716 Před rokem +8

    Thank you, Luke, for the informative video about planting cabbage - full of good tips. I condition my (sandy) soil beforehand with bokashi and terra preta in January and February. In Germany we intercrop cabbage with celeriac or celery root (a wonderful vegetable by the way) to ward off the cabbage moth. To prevent the moth altogether without using a pesticide (can be detrimental when later making sauerkraut) I put the cabbage under tulle hoop tunnels. We get good results every year.

    Just in time. I'm growing cabbage for the 3rd time. The first time I grew it, the head was the size of a golf ball, probably because it was in a 2 gal container. The second time was way better, It was in a 5 gal bucket and it produce a head the size of my hands. I have some more seedlings ready to plant. I'm super excited, and thank you for the tips!

    Thanks Luke! As soon as this video was done I went and took care of my cabbages. Weeded, trimmed off bad leaves, planted marigolds all around, filled plastic smoothie bottles with good organic stuff and holes in the bottoms, mulched with grass, covered with a dome of chicken wire and got it all watered in. Fertilized yesterday. I’ve been hopping all over trying to get it all done at one time. Maybe concentrating on one thing at a time is the way to go. I also refilled the plastic green tea bottles with organic stuff in the main garden (mostly green & red beans and cow peas) and got all that watered in. Worms and plants are loving it. Awesome that you are updating old videos!

    All my MIL had to do in Northern Alberta was put the seeds in the ground and let Mother Earth do the rest. Extra long days of sunshine produced the most massive cabbages I ever saw!

    This is very interesting! I wonder if watering with beneficial nematodes would also prevent Root Knot nematodes? I have not tried growing cabbage before but if I can find a space for it I might try 1 or 2 to see how they do in my yard. My yard has lots of trees and only spots of sun which change throughout the day, so I would not want to risk wasting a full row without knowing whether it gets enough sun in any of those areas. I might also try it under a grow light indoors.
    I ordered some things from you and looking forward to getting them and trying them out. I have two Cherokee Purple tomato plants that I got from Bonnie's through Tractor supply that I'm waiting to put in the ground until I receive the Trifecta Plus fertilizer in the mail.
    I planted some seeds I already had in peat pellets and one of the rows is carrots. Could you do a video on carrots? I will probably plant mine in a container of some sort.

    I'm back... (already left a comment).
    Well my cabbage is growing in my atrium, and I noticed bumps on the leaves.
    I definitely have spider mites, which I have no idea how I got them because everything is in hydroponics or baked soil (baked at 175° for 20 mins).
    So I'm searching for help!
    I'm going to try 2 tsp soap & 1 Tbsp Neem oil to 1 gal water.

    What if we plant some mustard in between each cabbage?

    I am confused. I looked for a video where Luke explains how to collect cabbage seeds but I could not find any. All the videos said that cabbage and carrots are biannual so it would take 2years to get any seeds. I purchased from you Late Flat Dutch, Golden Acre cabbages and both packages say they are annuals. I also bought Danvers 126 which also says annual. My question for both carrots and cabbages with these specific plants is when will I get seeds and is there something I need to do different? t
    Thanks. I enjoy your videos and I especially like them because we are in the same growing zone.

    Do you sell the Bacillus thuregensis ? Can I grow the bacteria? I love this idea.
    Nothing else works . I don't know if my kale "aphids" are special but they don't d1e either. ( My kale strain is a beast , been growing the Same plants for 20 years at 3200' altitude )

    Anyone ever tried incorporating mushroom mycellium into beds to combat nematodes. Certain mushroom species prey on nematodes. Oyster mushrooms have this ability I think

      That's interesting. I've used spent oyster blocks in the garden before, but I had no idea it could fight nematodes, and have never had a problem with them. It does alright for adding organic matter if you spread it thin enough in the soil, but it doesn't have much in the way of nutrients and could pull nitrogen from the soil if it's not fully decomposed, so is better off composted.

    How do you know when to harvest? The heads are hard. Planted 10" apart. Heads are small but I get more. Planted March 28. So I can harvest now and plant Stone head seeds for mid season crop. Is that ok? Thanks

    Can you successfully move cabbage plants once planted and growing? I have a few that are too close to each other, but they are each at a different stage right now. I also mistakenly listened to the wrong person and planted with broccoli. I've been gardening for several years, but never any brassicas until this year. Thank you in advance...
