Just before the Freezing Tempts, we harvested a few carrots and covered the bed. Did they FREEZE? What about all the plants we covered? What survived the Artic Blast 2022?

THANKS FOR WATCHING!

This was so much fun to watch! Only a gardener geek would sit on the edge of their seat watching another gardener geek walk around uncovering stuff for over 30 minutes but in the future this might be the key to someone’s survival. I was so excited when you uncovered the big tomato in the kingdome. The cabbages outside- that was inspiring! Im sure you know what a fruit cage is, maybe something similar in the future, with the tarp thrown over that would help your citrus grove on the side of the house. Im thinking also about how Florida citrus growers burn fires in the grove when there’s a freeze. Maybe having a trash barrel to burn wood in over by the citrus trees would help. For smaller trees like your little kumquat I have put upside down 55 gallon trash cans over them wrapped in the bubble wrap car windshield shades- bricks on top. You did good! I hate to even think about how my orchard on the deck did. It will be months before we know. Thinking about it makes me feel sick.
Thank you for the video, I learn today more about taking care of my little window garden. my cabbage and potato plants are still with me. still leaving them cover with my plastic here in Ohio even though it is 35 F degrees and has warm up here inside my apartment don't have a furnace that works properly…but me and my plants survived the cold blast together..
amazing video, loved it
put rye down for your cover crop….it is hardy for a great winter crop….that is what old timers always planted up in the North Michigan
With such Cold How are the Rabbits keeping Warm in the Barn with the air in there freezing
Could a person stay warm with just a little Hay
And No Heat
Did you put a Heater in there because 10° is freezing
Hope there warm 🐇
Love carrot salad with apples and raisins!!
Well Danny and Wanda look like your hard work paid off
those carrots look wonderful. The tarp was a good investment. I like bubble wrap on big rolls from FarmTek. But I live in California near the coast.
They all need watering then you may find most are OK!! Also, maybe stock 1 or 2 inch thick insulation, hard stuff, so you can put it against the side walls on the inside so the plants don't touch the plastic of the green house. Thank God for everything making it!! Thanks for sharing. God bless and protect.
Glad to see you fared so well.
I worked at a nursery when I was younger, and when there was a freeze, all the Antonellis were out there in the field and greenhouse watering for all they were worth. They said plants will burn if they need water and they freeze. They raised tuberous begonias.
don't cut succulents after a freeze. their sap rises and will drip right out of the cuts.
Take a video about this , The world is now ruled by one community of people, the world Satanic elite, you can also call them the committee to meet the Antichrist and prevent the 2nd coming of Jesus, Trump called them the deep state, at the moment it consists of about 10,000 people, the main ones there are Rockefellers, Rothschilds, Windsors, Baruchs, they, their ancestors, descendants and other people who enter there have the mark of Lucifer, which, if they bring the antichrist and do not allow the 2nd coming, they will receive eternal life after the x hour, and the rest of humanity, for all the time that they have lived, they won't get anything, so all people should know about the existence of a world government
Carrots looking great! If you do a cloth cover like sheer curtain over then tarp the plastic won't touch the greenery it won't bite
Congratulations! Looks like you got some good results for your efforts!!!
👍
From MI and seeing you pick carrots this time of year is amazing.
If you sprinkle with water until the ice comes off they will not turn brown . Same with anyplant
there's some guy in nj that cages his banana plants n stuffs hay all around n above them, 4 the whole winter, every year, n it works- idk tho, if he ever gets fruit or not- i quit watching because he doesn't believe in preserving what he grows, except maybe freezing a bit n i think that's just moronic-
Those carrots are amazing great harvest
What size are your high tunnels? We are looking into getting one but they have lots to choose from.
Danny , here in Australia we grow the carrots in rows and thin them out before they grow too big .
We live in Crawford Tennessee and we have 2 Grower Solutions green houses. 1of them is a high tunnel and has raised beds, covered the plants and had temperatures down to -6 and 99 percent of the plants served.
Bailey Hills Farm
Praise God that all of your efforts paid off.
Great job Mr. Danny and Mrs. Wanda! I know that must have been exhausting work preparing all those plants for the deep freeze. You thought of some cool ways to wrap your small trees. My way is not nearly as neat, but it gets the job done. Although it looks like a hot mess! Good thing I don't have close neighbors!🌻
Wrap your tomatoes in Christmas lights. We did our avocado trees and frost covers. It went down to 22 here and no damage!!
Really good video applicable to lots of folks . Interesting
Carrots get sweeter in the cold. Cabbage loves the cold.
Thank you both for showing these blessed results of your stewardship! God bless you!
It looks like most of your plants faired out well 😊
I know that you guys already know that they make 23,000BTU kerosene heaters. When we were kids, we were dirt poor, and my sister and I slept in bunk beds back on our screened-in back porch with a kerosene heater to keep us warm. You can turn those heaters up or down. I'm thinking you could use a couple of such heaters near your bananas. Kerosene heaters are portable, and would take up MUCH less room than a coal-burning pot-bellies stove. If you were totally gungho, you could put a thermostatically-controlled natural gas heater in the "attic" of each greenhouse for those few nights every year when you need a few extra degrees of heat to keep your plants alive and healthy. A kerosene heater might be enough to keep your bananas alive. Thank you for being such good examples to the rest of us! If we get a high tunnel here in Mesa County, we would have to do something for extra heat, because it gets colder for longer here than it does in Wiggins, Mississippi. God bless and protect Deep South Homestead and all who dwell there!
Yes! God is GOOD!!!
I picked carrots in early December last year in northern Oklahoma
Not this year.
For the most part, the bad weather wasn't so destructive as you were expecting. I am so happy it wasn't. I know you both work so hard on your homestead. Hope it will be good from now on and things will flourish.
I built or had built a greenhouse. Put my tomatoes that was so beautiful in my greenhouse. Did great till we dropped into the low thirty’s . So they never made it to this hard freeze . My onions did fine . My collards witch are very small made it outside in the low teens and the ones in the greenhouse made it . Got to water them and hopefully they do fine . My potatoes went leap even with straw on top . Thank the lord I didn’t have much in there with no heat .
I'm happy for you. You guys really did come out of that really well!
So happy most of your plants and trees came through the freezing weather okay!
-8 for us in SC MO Friday,23rd. -4 Saturday, 24
Everything looked pretty good. I don't know if my fig made it. I covered but will have to leave covered all winter. It gets cold. I dont know yet about herbs greens garlic onions. My 99 year old Aunt passed on Christmas. Will bury her tomorrow. I haven't looked at containers yet
I’ve had tomatoes live and recover with temperatures in the mid 40’s
Fantastically looking tomato. Lovely!
I enjoyed watching this video. I bet we have a milder January and then like you said Feb and March will get some cold again. I live in the North GA mountains. It got down to 3 degrees with a wind chill of -20 one night. Stayed consistently below freezing for almost 4 days. Ya'll take care!

we hit -25 below wind chill up here. my heated greenhouse shed is built opposite from most greenhouses so i can heat it with candle power and my tomatos ,peppers an cucumbers an such were fine..unfortunately i believe these cycles are going to get worse and be more common in the coming years an people without greenhouses are gonna struggle mightily with crop failures..especially further north..very happy to see your unkown volunteer tomater make it..might need to buy a few your seeds of that cold hearty beauty . 😉 ps if was where u r at and had the blessing of those big greenhouse id look into runnin me a deep geothermal trench an lay some corrugated pipe about 8-10ft down an blow air thru it..i imagine your avg ground temp where u at gotta be near 65 that deep all year round .jus sayin. preeesch u guys.
Thanks for sharing this video! You did a lot of work to protect those plants and it looks like it paid off pretty well. Another greatly appreciated video I can learn from. Have a blessed day!
Good video we have a couple small greenhouses so far so good, but we had three feet of snow.
Hope that all is going to grow that you had . I know that you put a lot of work into the gardens that you have.
My carrots are doing well. Here in SoCal I grow them with light frost fabric.
