Best way to take a break from my garden is to come watch y'all in yours! Thanks so much for all you do to teach us!!
The squash horn made my day! I was thinking of that when you cut the leaf!! I can't believe you did it! My Granddaddy always made me those! I love that memory. Thank you!
My wife and I perked up when we saw that too. Sure brings back good memories. Memories of a simple and happy time in our lives. Childhood.
Thank you Danny for the horn to make the garden even more fun.
Food for you, toys for kids, treats for chickens, I call that a win win!😃 Never seen that done with squash stems. Nice trick to know! Would love to do that for my grandkids someday.
Those squash cut into coins with a dab of Bacon grease in a skillet browned crispy is so good..
CAN YALL PLEASE DO A VIDEO ON PRUNING THE SQUASH???
Thank you for showing me that fun trick with the squash leaves! So excited to show my boys!
You had me at squash horn. Subscribed.
Omg, Danny I love, love, love the squash horn! I have two young grandson's who will love this. I am absolutely going to have to do this! Thanks for sharing this. God bless you and Wanda.
I can't WAIT to do that with squash for my grandkids !!!
The squash horn was so cool. We will definitely try that with our girls!! I know they will get a kick out of that. That bucket of squash looked so good!
Decades back my grandfather raised corn without spraying for worms. Instead he had a 200W bulb up high nearby (not a flood light; the regular shape). It would attract the moths. 5" under the light was a shallow 24" pan filled with 2" of water having enough used motor oil floating on top to cover the water completely. The moths would hit the light and bounce into the oil. He would have appreciated low power LED technology.
My grandkids will love the horn. Ty
Wonder how many of us are gonna make that squash horn as soon as we have a stem big enough? :)
I wish my husband worked as hard as you do in the garden!
The garden horn is great!!
My friend hangs the cabbage on a rope the Chickens love it .
Yellow Squash is my favorite fresh vegetable. That garden is looking wonderful. You all stay healthy and safe. God Bless Y'all.
The squash looks amazing. Yummy. I'm so jealous. We are supposed to get snow here tonight and maybe tomorrow in Ohio. We don't even have anything planted or ready to go. I LOVE your chickens. Can't believe how big the babies got.
Truly epic squarsh!
You’re amazing Danny! I love the squash horn👍.
My grandbabies will love the squash horns! That was a surprise. Thank you, Danny, for sharing a way to show joy in a garden.
Learn some thing new every day, never knew that about a squash stem lol.. I got to grow some again this year... Garden is looking great too! Thank you for the video and update.
Beautiful squash!
I’m 75 years old and live in MS.
Toys in the gardens not just for kids I kind of like the squash horn myself.lol. Planted it in the open garden and really had a worm problem. This year we planted the peaches and cream in the greenhouse have about 60 plants no worms this year. It does very well in the greenhouse. ❤ ya'll. God bless
That horn was so cool,Never seen it before COOL
Danny in my garden I get good organic control of corn earworms by using eyedroppers or small squirt bottles to place a few drops of canola or olive oil in ear tips, as soon as the silks show signs of drying. You also can use a standard solution of Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis) or spinosad in the same way.
I have success every time- Loved your squash musical toy- but I wish I could grow them like you do. Cheers Denise - Australia
Cool love the horn ! I will have to give that a try!
Danny, we've grown Peaches and Cream every year for the past 22 years in our garden, and it has never tasseled before it's at least 4 feet tall. My husband is wondering if you have maybe too much nitrogen in the soil for Peaches and Cream?
Also, we always go through it when the silks start coming on with a small bucket of vegetable oil or castor oil and a turkey basting syringe without the needle on it. Every single ear gets a squirt down into the silk with roughly a teaspoon of oil. It doesn't completely alleviate the worms, but it goes long way.
A week later and it is nearly 6 feet tall. Crazy corn.
@@DeepSouthHomestead It's "crazy" good too!
Thanks for that tip!
I just watched Cedar Creek Homestead he was planting squash too, you both have great advice.
Thuricide BT all day. Gets borers, ear worms, cut worms, hornworms, etc. Love you guys. Long time subscriber first time commenting. Also curious on anyone's thoughts on foliar feeding..
Very nice squash 😊
This horn is the best thing I have seen in a long time...
Squash looks great! And very early! My squash are just now beginning to flower! My squash usually gets hit by pickleworm/melonworm by mid summer. Hope you are doing well. If you suspect or see caterpillar damage, corn earworm damage on your corn, you can always take a few drops of oil, cooking oil or mineral oil and put a few drops of oil into the developing ear to stop caterpillar 'worm' damage. Best of luck and have a great spring
Thanks for sharing I'm learning a lot.
Nice squash
Danny this year the squash has come through for you. This year is my first time growing squash. One thing you mentioned was that you trimmed it. Is that basically where you thin out the leaves only?? As far as the netting goes you wouldn't have know if it works unless you tried it. So never consider that a failure.
Hahaha, my dad used to do that with the stem of the squash. He also cut holes like a flute. 😍
KIDS.lol i am going to make a squash horn tomorrow asap.
Chickens crack me up they way they steal treats from each other.
we 'cream' yellow squash...steam, smash, butter, half&half, salt and pepper...yummy!
😁 thank you for the sqaush horn nugget, I can't wait to show my grandbaby she's gonna love it.....
Vine bores got all my squash this year.
Who in their right mind "thumbs down" this video? 🤷🏽♂️
I was hoping Hank would come home. Cool horn. We have to be real careful picking our vegetables. Never know if a rattlesnake be in there.
This squash horn is so cool. It takes me back to my dad making whistles out of weeping willow.
I know you don’t like chemicals and neither do I so I started using one of those dusters like you put out powdered poison with and use diatomaceous earth on all my raised beds. It’s worked great so far and keeps the ants away to.
I started dusting DE around the limb I have one of my hummingbird feeders on...it works! You have to re-apply after a rain, but it's no big deal.
The computer generation is not going to understand what we had to play with as kids! Love the squash horn!
That's so funny, a squash shofar!
Nice squash! my first ones are almost big enough... Our sweet corn (incredible ) Has tassled early The last year or to, but keep growing taller. We still got a good harvest... We try to get our corn out as early as possible to help with pest.. Have a Blessed Week!
Incredible sweet corn is my favorite!
One drop of mineral oil on each corn silk before they start pollinating from the tops prevents worms in the ear.The corn worm eggs fall from the tassels along with the pollen.It works and does not interfere with pollination.
I made my comment before you addressed this in the video.You only have to do the oil one time and done.Takes less time than deworming but to each his own.Nice worms.
Thank you Danny and Wanda. Learn something every episode. Pruning squash! Who knew? Lost the love of my life at Christmas, and just today decided to move from mourning to celebrating an amazing life by making a memorial garden. You two are a little like we were together, and are a joy to watch.
What a great idea about the garden. He will be so thankful that you are moving on!
Maybe you could let us know how things end up if you could in some way???
Stay safe.
The Squash Horn was everything 😂❤️ That was awesome
Love seeing the abundance
Been eating and giving squash away seems last week, got taters big as my fist, but going to dig em next week . My cucumbers are starting to make and my brother bought about 40 lb , so past two days been making pickles,Lord being good
Yep....GOOD is Who He is....all the time! : )
@@jjo5375 yep
Might have to carry some squash horns in the car 🧐🤔
Now that is something I never knew you could make music with a squash vine Amazing!!
My peaches and cream grew taller. I am 5 foot and it was taller than me. Love the taste
Oh my goodness are you my dad?! 😆 He would cut straws for the grandkids and we'd have 5 little tooters running around the restaurant blowing spit everywhere!! Good times, good times (youngest is 13 and 6'1" now and he still likes to do it)
That is some good lookin squash tho.
Look at you already picking squash! I haven’t even planted a tomato plant in my pots on the back porch! ❤️💕❤️💕❤️😍
I cant wait to show my kids the squash horn. Thank you😁👍
Danny it amazes me at how much the difference in growing time is from where yall live and where i live in south central Oklahoma. My squash is just now coming up and my corn. As you know a late freeze and hail got my corn and it's just coming out after i replanted. Yalls looks beautiful.
I would love a video about pruning your squash. Do you prune zucchini also? I am growing zucchini, yellow straight neck, yellow crook neck, acorn and butternut this year. Thanks for the great videos!
Yes you prune zucchini also
Do layers getting in the mint produce peppermint flavored eggs? Hahahahaha!
nice
Looking good! Sorry about the worms! Ugh!
Great Video!😎
cabbage moth is what makes those worms...little white butterflies!...those are big ones..they start smaller than a 1/32 on an inch...you will not save the corn by picking them off, im afraid...diacotimus earth..will get rid of them..its cheap and eatable too!...lol...sprinkle on the ears
Enjoyed this learning video
Looking good there
Nice squash thank goodness🤲🙏🏻💟🕊
that net is great over cabbage plants.
Thanks for the info on corn worms...this is my 1st year growing corn and I've read a little about issues that corn can have. :)
Hey Danny you can use Diatomaceous earth it will get rid of pest in your Garden and it’s natural it’s from the ocean
We've tried it with no results.
Thats absolutly great ill get the kids interested with toys in the garden lol 😁😄🤩😍😜🤪🤗
BT spray will kill most caterpillars . BT spray is allowed on organic farms. Bt is sometimes mixed with oil for application on corn.
We like to grow Top Hat sweet corn. For us, that variety of corn gives 2 ears per stalk and not much bug trouble. We don't like to use pesticides either, so we look for pest/disease resistant varieties of everything except okra because nothing bothers okra.
Squash horn?! My mind is blown!
🤔 I grow peaches and cream and don’t usually have a worm problem. It’s also interesting how short your stalks are and tasseling. I’m in MO so wondering why such a big difference.
This Year I didn’t plant any squash Squash Vine Borer got me for two years so I am going to skip a year and try next year but your squash is Beautiful great Harvest and I am a new subbie!!
Thanks for subbing I hope we can be a blessing.
Got a pond on that property? Take some of those worms down to the fishing hole and make em pay for all that corn they're eating.
CharlieDontSurf feed em to the chickens
Did you seriously just make a horn from a squash stalk? Lol! OOoh, happy chickens. I miss having them. They make composting happen so much faster with their feet.
i been growing only peaces an cream sweet corn for over 47 years, here in nothh western ont. canada, and i hill the rows 2 times, never had worms on them, we cal that worn a green horned worm, we find them on tomatos and picling cucumbers some years but never on corn, must be nice harvisting already, we are still frozrn 6 to 8" dowm and -4 at night, day time highs 40 to maybe 60
oh my gosh a squash horn! why did I not know this?
Worms got to eating my pepper plants first time that has happened. Even though we are not far apart (I'm in central Alabama) your garden is way ahead of mine my squash is still small okra looks bad tomatoes have just started to bloom. These cool mornings we are having sucks for the garden
I can taste that yellow squash now.😂 no real garden yet. Potatoes, peas and beets in.
Peaches and cream have very high sugar content. Likely to really attract them down by you.
Sir Danny do you do anything particular to ward off the Squash Bugs. They cause us serious problems here in southern Illinois now that the big farms started planting hundreds of acres of pumpkins.
I wrap aluminum foil around the base of the plant.
@@DeepSouthHomestead Thanks Danny. I have heard that foil will help with Vine Borers but does it help with Squash Bugs/Stink Bugs also?
I guess you don’t answer comments but I’d like to request a video about your poultry set up-if you raise chickens. I don’t think I’ve seen any chickens featured in your videos, but I could be wrong! You just have a neat set up for your cows so I figured you’d have a cool set up for the birds as well.
Love those red/dun dexters you have btw.
Glad I can call you a neighbor, I’m in Alabama, here. About an hour from Birmingham.
Thanks for the videos
We have a chicken playlist. We also show the chicken house in a video all by itself. Should be in the playlist
Deep South Homestead oh man I haven’t been paying good enough attention! Thank you I will go check that out.
What are you doing to control vine borer? I would just spray BT on the corn. It’ll take care of those worms and it’s OMRI listed organic and naturally occurring bacteria.
I sure miss my chickabirds!!!
Do you have a video on trimming your squash to slow the mold or not being pollinated I have never done this but would like to know how much pruning of the squash you do thanks Will your corn be ruined?
Yes, yes, yes, SAVE THE CORN! Corn on the Cob is my favorite food, then comes popcorn, corn chips, frozen corn, etc. Anything with corn in its name! Yummmm.
QUESTION: YOU WERE VERY CAREFUL AS YOU HARVESTED THE SQUASH. WILL THE PLANTS DEVELOP MORE FLOWERS AND THEN MORE SQUASH FROM THE FLOWERS? Thank you. : )
Yes it will keep bearing
@@DeepSouthHomestead Amazing! Thank you. : )
Thank you for sharing your garden with us. How do you keep the dreaded squash vine borers out? That's about the biggest struggle I have, any suggestions would be much appreciated!
I wrap aluminum foil around the base of the plant.
@@DeepSouthHomestead THANK YOU!!! Maybe I need to do it earlier, tried before but failed.....THANKS AGAIN!
Good morning Danny thank you for sharing your videos I have a question how soon should I put some kind of fertilizer down for my corn something like blood meal or do you recommend something. My corn is about 3 weeks old so it's only a few inches tall any advice would be very helpful thank you
I fertilize mine twice once when 8 inches tall and again when 12 Inches tall I use ammonium sulfate.
Squash bugs tear up my squash here in SC. I have tried every natural method to stay ahead of them. I would have liked to see how you trim your squash, I have never heard of that before. I trim up tomatoes, but not squash. Could you go into more detail of what you do? Do you trim off the lower sections only, thin throughout the bush, or take off the leaves? That is some pretty squash, whatever you are doing! 🌽
I have a video coming.
How do u prune squash plants?
Do you have a video on pruning Squash Danny?? Do you cut off the oldest leaves and do you do it close to the plant???
Going to make a video.
