[Music] Franks producing green houses so this is a really big Nursery as you can see they have a ton of green houses over there which we take a look at in a second but we’re just going to start outside and work our way in saw these at this what you want to plant look at this stuff pretty this is pretty what is this long War opal part shade to shade this glims in the spring this is pretty and the leaves look like it’s very textured pretty husband’s way over there this it’s not really card friendly out here can you got me one of the crates oh I guess I could have just got it myself yellow cream sweet potato cucumbers I have a lot of stuff here a nice variety of course there’s a ton of tomatoes cucumber scorpion chives yes please I already have chives but should I I need more let me get some more this guy cherry hot green Cherry shaped Peppers turn vet andure heavy copper so pretty in here have the entire Greenhouse to myself so these are annuals the colors are just so gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous love these These are cute what are these impatience these are absolutely beautiful I just love the color hopefully it’s picking up on camera I am using my phone these are the same as the ones you just saw but these are white I guess they just haven’t bloomed yet these palm trees are huge it’s tall how much is that I got how much that tall plant is 50 yeah so here are the indoor plants skis what’s going on here micilia mailia pretty so we’re back home I’m sitting here in the back if you you guys are familiar with my channel and have seen some videos in the past and you’ve already seen this outdoor space I typically if you can see behind me and look beyond that random pole there I typically keep my outdoor container garden in this space um today is it’s interesting there were a lot of people at both nurseries that I went to both Loaves and there were also a lot of people at oh gosh what was this bag Franks there were a lot of people there but interestingly interestingly enough the weather is kind of like this going up in and down all week has been sweltering hot in the 8S tomorrow I believe the temperature is going to dip a little bit the temperature is going to dip for a couple of days and then it’s going to shoot right back up so I have no concerns about any of these veggies and herbs that I purchased declining but I’m going to show you everything that I got from both Franks and from I also have a couple of items that I purchased from Ace last weekend that I I don’t think I recorded that so let me start with the things that I got last week from Ace I picked up oh gosh I didn’t keep the card for this what is this this is some type of pepper oh my gosh I just realized I didn’t keep the card so I guess we’ll all be surprised once it starts growing so the reason why it’s like dangling around in here can you guys see that so I repotted it into a bigger pot because it was it’s a little rootbound it’s hard to tell here the soil is a little damp I put all of my well I put this in the two other things that I’m going to show you in a minute but I put them in this little Greenhouse it was really windy one day and it fell over all of the dirt fell out of this the other plant is okay but it got you know a little damaged up a little bit so I’m going to refill that pot let me show you the dirt that I’m using these days I also got this from Ace this is Fox Farm now I used to mainly use Miracle Grow in the past no not for any particular reason just because it was easily accessible you know when you go to the big box stores or you know other nurseries everyone has a miracle grow but people also have Fox Farm I got this Fox Farm soil and fertilizer um like I said at Ace just cuz I wanted to try it out I haven’t been I haven’t had any major issues with Miracle Grow in the past however comma you know I’ve experienced in the past like gats and what looks like eggs and all different types of things from Miracle girl packages so I just wanted to give something else a try some of the groups that I’m a part of a lot of folks have expressed you know some issues and difficulties they’ve been having with Mir girl so I wanted to try that so let me show you everything else that I got from me so we already talked about this pepper which is the unknown pepper I also got some onion chives from Ace and I love onion chives onion ches is some going to come out I absolutely love onion chives they’re easy to grow um you cut them they grow back even Fuller I’m here pulling off some yellow pieces but this is probably one of the easiest herbs in my opinion for me at least to grow you cut them they sprout more so got these the last thing that I got from Ace is this mojito mint plant and this is a pretty nice size pot um it is 6 and2 in $4.99 so I didn’t think it was a bad deal and you can just smell it I love mojito mint now mint plants in general a lot of you guys may already be aware they’re very invasive invasive in the sense that if you pot them with other plants like if I were to put all of these together in one like planter the mint plant would take over because these grow wild it’s and it’s almost like the more you cut them the more they grow so I got this one I’ve also seen regular mints spare mints um but moito mint is the one that I was on the hunt for so those are the three plants in and in addition to the soil those are the things that I got from Ace now let’s talk about what I picked up from Frank so let me start with this you guys are going to laugh at me so the first thing two things that I got I got more onion chives like I said I just I love chives what can I say I’m realizing that these are two different H can you guys see that so I got my chives and if you guys want me to talk about the care I can do that again I don’t have I can’t tell you about this one unfortunately this one it says planted in full sun of course you can grow it in ground but the these are also really great for containers so got these two from Franks the other thing let’s see let’s talk about this the other thing that I got now this one is going to look a little crazy cuz there’s a lot of like yellowing and brown but don’t be alarmed when you go veggie and plant shopping or yeah herb shopping because it comes with the territory so I got some yellow grape tomatoes you guys see that so these are I picked these up because it says that it’s sweet tasting small fruits um you can use it in salad or for snacking we likely more than likely use these for snacking purposes so this is what that looks like now this I’m probably going to repot this into one second I’ll probably pot these all up together in here or I thought I had you know what scratched out I’m not going to put it in here I’m going to go buy some small um terracotta pots and I’ll put that in here right now these are in four individual containers so you know what I can probably actually put all four of these in their own individ that’s what I’ll do can you guys see that well you see like there’s four right there so I’ll either put them in four individual containers or I’ll split them up in two but this is this so I’ve never had these yellow grapes before I’m pretty scratched that I’ve had them like in foods like when I go to restaurants but I’ve never grown these myself so I’m looking forward to this and the main reason why I picked it up is because they said that it was sweet so I got that and then I can show you this next also picked up some cherry hot peppers can you guys see that so never had this before but it says that it’s green Cherry shaped peppers they turn red when they’re mature um how to grow plant them in full St again everything here requires full St you’re probably like you’re staying full sun but we’re not seeing full sun behind you but trust me today is just like one of those transition days now the reason why I picked this plant in particular is because hopefully you can see I’m going to try to get in here close do you see like the little like buttons or the little round things in there those are the actual Peppers that will grow and mature so it’s probably hard to see on camera but all four of these have quite a few this one have four three yeah so this is going to be a good one the last thing that I got well the second to last thing that I got are more peppers I got some Scotch bonnet peppers and it says these are fiery hot use fresh or dry for that extra hot salsa now I love spice I like a good kick in my food I don’t like when it’s so spicy where you’re just like like you can’t enjoy your food can you guys see me I’m just realizing that my lighting is horrible I’ll probably have to adjust the lighting when I’m editing oh man did you guys even see all oh Lord so did you guys see this the cherry hot so I got I was telling you about the cherry hot peppers and I think you saw the yellow grape tomatoes and so now we’re talking about the Scotch bonnet pepper so I was explaining that when I’m eating food I don’t like it to be so spicy to the point where I can’t enjoy it however I do still like a little kick so when we use Scotch bonnet we typically would you know put it in the pot when we’re making rice or making any type of meal but the key is not to cut it if you cut that bad boy just throw the whole pot away because if you can’t take spice you’re not going to want this so I’m really excited to grow this I don’t see any bulbs on this one just yet um as far as how to grow it says planted in Sun and 18 in apart so I’ll likely have to put each of these all of these that come like in a pack of for I’ll probably put them in their own individual terracotta pot just to get them Room to Grow cuz you know once these things start growing then they start growing so those are all the veggies that I got it’s so I had no plans on buying so many veggies and herbs this growing season but here we are oh I also wanted to show you I didn’t get this today I’ve had this for a while I got this from Walmart let me take out these little Nursery pots I got this really cute little herb planter from Walmart it’s from Better Homes and Garden and I got this from Walmart I want to say probably almost a couple months ago at this point I just bought it cuz I thought it was really cute and I can put things like my onion chives in here I don’t know how it would fit like it won’t fit um square but I can put it directly in here so that’s probably what I’ll do with this I’ll put the chives in here everything else would need its own little pot so I just wanted to share this cuz I thought it was so adorable we don’t have a window still like in the kitchen like by the sink think so I’ll more than likely keep I’m I’m going to put everything in my Greenhouse we’ve been having like I said it’s been windy and the greenhouse has been toppling over so I’m going to have to put something heavy in there to keep it sturdy so my plants don’t fall over again all right now the last thing that I got it’s not anything to grow and eat but it’s certainly something to enjoy I’ve been on the hunt for this for a minute I was talking about it earlier in the video so glad that I found it I got myself a gardinia plants now this is actually a Gardina Bush so there’s a couple of flowers that have already started blooming but this has so many buds let me see for you guys can you guys see those bulbs they’re on the top the bulbs that aren’t open yet so that’s one of the reasons why I chose this one because this one is this will take off this is going to be so beautiful I have to look up care instructions on the gardinia when I do I can share a separate video on how to care for it but I’ve just been I mean you can smell it already so lovely so I’m so excited about that so what I’m going to do I’m probably going to have to run over to Home Depot and get the little terracotta pots I thought I had some last year but I guess not so I’m going to do that in the meantime I want to make sure this plant here has the dirt that it needs so it’s not wobbling all over the place everything else I’m trying to decide if I should water it now or let it be until I get the terracotta pots I’ll kind of figure that out but that is everything that I wanted to show you guys today welcome welcome to all of my new subscribers thank you to everyone who’s been around for a while I appreciate your continued support and let the growing season begin guys I will talk to you in the next one bye
