I plant snow pea's in the fall zone 8a
Thank you for advice in your videos. You and several others have improved my Ohio gardening. I can use and/or adapt your suggestions despite zone differences. Thanks for your dedication to youtube. Love the adventures with Dale.
I would assume radishes are also a good winter vegetable depending on the variety?
Hey can you do a video on how you organize you pots? Like nobody has done it and I need ideas 😅
Good catch, Dale!
Hmmmm I use the bulb part of the leeks & scallions in my cooking. I use their green tops for soup stocks.
I can't seem to get garlic to take. I'm in zone 8b too.
Do you refrigerate your garlic before planting? I am in Burlington North Carolina and I raise soft-neck. But I refrigerate it for a month or so before planting in October. The seed company sends it to me in September. I love Cosmic Purple Carrots planted for all winter. I do grow collards, swiss chard, and several varieties of kale all winter. Cut and come again! My pit bull Layla says hi to Dale!
Daikon-you can make Korean style pickles from them and use them for hot pot .
Spinach-even zone 5b, some varieties will survive the winter and start growing in the spring again.
Love the Chanel I wanted to join your patreon but can’t find it???
Swiss Chard is my favorite winter hardy green. (Zone 7B) Just cut (they will regrow), Wash, chop and boil. (I prefer the Fordhook[white varieties], Ifind some of the others bitter but not with this one)
I planted collards last fall in 9b we ate collards all summer and still had collards last night. I do have them in containers under a tree. I guess I will let them keep going.
Wonderful video! I'm looking forward to seeing a video on how you grow cilantro in the fall/winter.
New friend. Thumbs up.
I live in Wisconsin and my mature collard lived all winter out in the open. It is still alive. It did bolt, but still has edible leaves.
RE: Bunching Onions. I love Garlic Chives. I'm in 8b N of Houston. If we get a 20 degree day they will just freeze the tops and pop back up in the spring. I have a big bunch in my garden that has been there for 18 years.
Why fertilizer the garlic in the fall? Wouldn’t that kickstart the growth just for it to then get hit with the cold winter?
Hey,
Question, where did you get the plant covers that are behind you? I need some!! Thanks 😊
Do you put plastic over your garden beds over the winter with these vegetables you're talking about
Absolutely love this video
Hi! Thanks for awesome videos! I have been enjoying many of your videos. I wondered if you let your raised bed or plot rest for rotations. If you do, could you make a video about tips? I have four 4 x4 raised bed, and I don’t know if I should plant fully in four all the time or let at least one box to rest and not planting in it to rejuvenate the raised garden box.
What can zone 5 grow up til my winter? Our winters are way to cold to grow!
Enjoying this false fall here! I’m hoping to find some garlic & ginger to plant soon! I’m ENC, too, but I was thinking they needed to go in a pot so they could go in greenhouse in winter. No?
Great video, thank you for all the info. Dale is such a nice doggie
My fig is died what I can do I’m in Orlando fl
I lived in Onslow for a little while. Hurricane Florence took care of my first garden. Now I’m in VA with better success this time
Leeks are wonderful.
