Jenny! Tomatoe horn worm tip. Black light flashlight at night. The worms glow florescent green. Even a blind woman like me can find them when they are tiny before they eat your plants! Tip 2... kids love florescent things and black lights giggle
Last year, the tomato hornworm stripped one of my jalapeños. They loved my tomatoes and hot peppers. My husband and I really enjoyed our late night black light hunts for them. Our neighbors probably thought we were crazy but we are ok with that. Lol!
*Thank you so much for your kindness my friend CREEKSIDE for producing this video and you give us the basic information and then continue to make good and especially quality content if needed. You really are appreciated! Happy gardeniiiiiiiiiiiiing!!!*
Hi Jenny, I can watch you garden all day long 🤗
🌱Good morning JENNY and all Creekside friends. Such a beautiful space you have and it’s so fun to see it all just beginning it’s springtime greatness. Thank you so much for sharing this, Jenny. I live here in Michigan and long to move south one day just for an extra month of joy in the garden. Have a safe and happy weekend everyone ☕️🌷💚
Good morning Jenny !! So nice to see those colorful daffodils in the background!
Jenny if you inter plant basil with your tomato plants that helps keep the horn worms away. The smell of basil masks the smell of tomatoes so the horn worm can’t detect the tomato scent. I just learned this last year and I had great success keeping those ugly little pests away. Might be worth a try?🌷💚🙃
THANK YOU!!!!
Super Excited about your Strawberry seeds!!! I cant wait to see the updates. ❤️
Hi Jenny
Was wondering about covering the seeds in the garden beds with the leaf mulch. Isn't this effectively planting them much deeper than is recommended and won't it suppress their growth like it does the weeds? I usually either dig it in at planting time or, if it hasn't broken down enough, pull it back and only put it back round the seedlings once they've germinated.
Good Morning y’all from Green Bay Wisconsin! Surround by snow ❄️
Good morning friends 💜☺️
Great tips, Jenny! You are so pleasant to watch. I’m from New Hampshire and your southern accent sounds beautiful to me🥰
Thank you❣️
I've found it's best to look for all sizes of tomato hornworms as they start out as little worms and grow to the humongous size after they eat the tomato plant. Bluck! I hate/love squishing them! And their poop is a good indication of where they are! Bluck again!
Love those daffodils in the background. Thanks for showing the good and the bad. Can t wait to see all your beautiful gardens.
Great video! Don't sneeze, lol! Love your humour
Thank you! 😃
Even renters can have a veggie garden. I live in a rental house and garden exclusively in grow bags. (I like the Back to the Roots 1x3 felt beds and have four of them and just purchased a 10 pack of the Vivosun heavy duty 15 gallon grow bags.) If you rent and can’t put in your own garden beds, grow bags are a super cost-effective way to go and they really work. I had yellow squash plants last year so mammoth that my neighbor asked if I was growing some kind of mutant squash. I had two tomato plants and ended up with so many tomatoes, I froze enough to make two batches of tomato soup this winter. And currently I’ve got kale, lettuce, and bok choi I’m harvesting. I start many of my plants inside using a grow light and a 72 plug self-watering tray. So don’t say that you need big raised beds to have a garden. Grow bags can definitely be your solution.
Hi just wanted to share with folks that a black light at night will help find horn worms as well, as they glow under the black light.
Thanks Jenny for the tip about the seed shaker, I went out and found it at my garden centre here in Quebec Canada 🇨🇦⛄️
Maybe you could do a short clip about recycling. Like where do all the empty pots go. I do like that you offer the burlap bags. Enjoy your channel. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your videos!
Jenny, another idea to help with the composing of the new PW pots, put them through a paper shredder then add to the plant bed or composer/area. I shred everything at home that I can before I put it in the recycling bin. I would shred these separately and work in the potting soil I have to do patio gardening now. Love these!
What’s going in your remaining pots? Thanks for your information on growing your own seedlings, Proven Winners sure makes it easier and healthier for its customers! Thanks your the Sweetest!
Your daffodils look beautiful up on the hill!
Can’t wait to start some of these seeds…I have never tried strawberries from seed before but I will :)
I love how your space looks. So pretty and inviting. I would love to have a space like this. I have so many deer that I can’t just plant anywhere. They literally ate the leaves off all my shrubs and bushes. They also ate my tomatoes that were not protected.
Thanks for sharing how you plant your veggies.
Thanks for suggesting the seed planter. I ordered it this morning. It will make my life a lot easier.
Awesome!
Not Worm…… Caterpillars. I never kill them. I let them eat several leaves. It naturally opens up the tomato plants. I always have more tomato’s than I need.
🙋
Pretty pink scalloped blouse 👚 Jenny. I like the Cobra tool. Nice seed spreader as well. I don’t think I’ve ever seen your veggie garden. Thanks for sharing.
Chickens love hornworms lol, they just have to wait on me to find them. Love your videos! Calming, inspiring, informative and exciting all at once :) And your advice helped me save my hydrangea from this last freeze we had!
Thank you!
Thank you for this great video!
Fantastic. Thank you so very much for sharing this with us.🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Lovely garden ...you are such a great planner and you work so hard with your plants 🪴...happy gardening forever 👍
❤️ love it ❤️
Great video, so enjoy your content
I thank you Jenny 😊 great motivation and informative 🌺🌺
Great video to follow getting into vegetable gardening.
Would you recommend still having pea gravel and landscape fabric around your raised beds or would you have something different if you could do it again?
Jenny will yall have the starts at the nursery for tomatoes again this year? Garden Treasure was my most prolific variety last year.
We will!
I did the exact thing with my lettuce seeds. I have a blob of seedlings coming up! I’ll try to delicately move some. I even had some seeds come up from the plants from last year.
Send our friend Laura one of those lil' Green spreader starter outers.😉
I love both your channels.
Two awesome channels 👏
A great video you always explain every step so clearly. So we understand! Have a great day!
So glad it was helpful!
I have that garden marker as well, used it for the first time with my fall garlic, really happy with it compared to the pencil and sharpie I tried before. I had my first tomato horn worm two years ago, was disgusting.
Thank you,Jenny from a avid watcher. Would love to see a closeup of the daffodils.
Thank you Jenny! So informative as always. How deep are your beds? I garden in Central Alabama zone 7B this Clay soil is something else! I have never had any luck with Carrots… I am trying them in newly made raised beds this year.
Question about your second sowing of summer veggies: do you replace your tomatoes or peppers with your second crop when the first starts to peter out? Or do you keep both sets of crops even though one isn’t producing as well? I have limited space so I am trying to find out if the second crop is more of a replacement
Those biodegradable pots are a good idea. But maybe the next step should be towards working on reducing peat in composts...watching so many gardeners online from North America and very few seem to be attuned to the damage peat harvesting causes. Europe has slowly started banning peat and at long last the compost companies have started taking action.
i am learning about hugelkultur.
I guess I’ve missed but what do you use to mulch your leaves or to create your leave liter? I’m looking to buy a small mulcher for leaves and maybe small sticks or branches and not sure which brand would be best.
Laura puts vermiculite over her seeds (damp) and it keeps her seeds from drying out. She says this has been a gamechanger for her.
North Carolina has plenty of rain , no need the water.
Hi Jenny! I'm very curious where you got that shirt? I love the scalloped edge!
The garden tour then
Hi Jenny Thank you for all of your wonderful videos. I was wondering if you know of an efficient way of killing mealy bugs on a large scale? Also, how can I prevent them? I know that you have hot humid summers, similar to where I live in sth east Qld, Australia. During and after our flooding rains this year, we have an overwhelming infestation of both leaf/stem and root mealybugs, and then black sooty mould. I have lost most of my container plants and many of my garden plants are infected. I have just discovered hydrogen peroxide kills them but I need large scale help. Do you have any suggestions?
What do you do with your hornworms when you pick them off? Sometimes I toss mine in the woods, hoping a bird will eat them. Sometimes I drop them in a bucket of water.
I cut them in half with my clippers
What size Fiel trug are you using? I may purchase one. Thank you!
I planted garlic in the Fall, but we are moving. Is it possible to transplant a part of them to my new garden beds?
Hi Jenny what garlic do you use and is it from seed? Where please do get it from?
Hello friend, I found your channel about a year or so ago. I enjoy watching your videos💐🌺🌼
So glad you enjoy them!
Love your vegetable garden💚

Looks like a beautiful planting area’
It’s a beautiful spring day in East Tennessee🌞
Have a great day friend!
God Bless🙏🏻

Oh wow ok. Looking at your garlic vs mine tells me something has gone horribly wrong with my planting haha! All of the tops of my soft necks are super thin and wispy and floppy :(
Jenny, can you recommend a soil for my raised beds. I live about 50 minute south of Dallas NC and looking for a local source of quality garden soil. Need about 9 cubic yards total. Thank you.
Jenny - do you think the plastic-free pots will hold up for a couple of years? I’m wondering if we can use them for potting up seeds a couple of times and then plant them directly in the ground. I currently reuse the plastic PW pots to pot up my peppers, etc, and I reuse them multiple times before they break up too much.
From what I can tell, absolutely! I think that’s a fabulous idea 🙌🏻
💚
Good morning Jenny. I’m an avid watcher, and a new gardener. Which soil should be use to grow lettuce in containers? Zone 7b
I would use an organic blend specifically for vegetables. I really like the options from Black Gold like their Ultra Outdoor Planting Mix. You should be able to find their products throughout the country at Ace Hardware stores.
Horn worms start on dill. Check your dill first everyday.
I don’t grow dill 😊
Such good info. Is straw a good mulch for veggies?
It is as long as it doesn't have seed heads in it
Hi, Jenny!! I was wondering if you ever received your shipment of dahlia tubers from Laura at Garden Answer? Didn't know if I missed that. I'm hoping to visit Creekside Nursery sometime this year. Happy gardening!!!
Not yet! We will be sure to document the whole process when they arrive 😊
@@GardeningwithCreekside Can't wait!!🌻
I'm growing Garden Gem for the first time ever this year. I'm hoping to get tomato seeds started next week. I just got my pepper seeds going Friday under grow lights, and apparently peppers take longer to germinate than tomatoes.
The peppers do take a few days longer to germinate, so just be patient and they will come along in just a bit!
My experience with PW tomatoes didn't turn out too well. The plants were beautiful. Strong sturdy and large BUT we didn't like the taste of the tomatoes. Sad because the plants did so well. Several friends found the same, tasteless. Let us know what you think.
@@sallypoppema9575 we really enjoy the tomatoes & their flavor.
@@sallypoppema9575 Yeah. That can be a concern. This is my first year, so if I don't like them, I just won't grow them again. Tastes can surely differ. Garden Gem has several reviews stating people like the flavor of them. I'm growing 7 kinds of tomatoes, including two of my all time favorite kinds. We'll just can them if they aren't good sliced tomatoes.
@@GardeningwithCreekside If it's a tomato, I probably like it! I'm excited to try Garden Gem. Celebrity, Cherokee Purple, and Mortgage Lifter are among my favorites. If you get a chance to try those, I'd recommend it!
What do you do to protect your crops from rabbits and voles?
💜🧡💜
Silly question-are your wood planks stained? I want to start a veggie garden but don’t want the wood stain affecting the veggies 😬
Whenever I try to plant lettuce it always turns out bitter🙁🌷💚🙃
Has Laura sent you the dahlias yet?
Jess from Roots and Refuge says that grocery store tomatoes taste of disappointment. I see that you agree.
I very much agree!!!
