My mom purchased her tomato plants once. Every year she drops the bad tomatoes on the ground around the plants and before winter hits she pours a bag of soil/compost over the top of the rotted tomatoes. That’s it. The next spring, new tomato plants grow up in the same spot so she doesn’t have to buy more. We’re in zone 5.

Make a small mound for the centre of the asparagus to rest on. The roots settle gently on the slope and root quicker. My 2c. Thanks for your great video.😊

Here in 9b inland socal artichokes will grow wild. Their flowers grace many hiking trails from the coast to the mountains. The native pollinators absolutely love them.

You have a lovely vibe, Jag . A happy gardener.

You can kill mint with coffee grounds. I had planted a nice chocolate mint by the kitchen window hoping it would go crazy. Unbeknownst to me, my husband was dumping coffee grounds out the window. Mint died out and nothing grows there at all. I'm gonna plant blueberries there , they like coffee.

Yes,mint spreads. I also planted a circle bed in the yard. Just mowed outside circle, or transplanted some every year. Problem solved.

I had a chard bed (perpetual spinach). I decided to dig it up on year two to plant garlic and the chard keeps coming back. “Chard only lives for 3 years,” someone said, I’m on year 4 of it coming up like a weed! 😂 I give up, chard wins.

Jag you the man! Love your content!

I raised all of my asparagus from seed about 5 or 6 years ago. Three years ago they start producing some nice asparagus spears that get more plentiful and thicker each year so far. They are the first thing to spout each year and I harvest them until about late June or early July. There is a small amount of maintenance, but not much. My asparagus grows so fast I can typically harvest twice a day...highly recommend them to anyone, even if you don't like asparagus, everyone else does. In other words...do as Jag says...!

Brilliant! In mid-eastern PA I have great harvests with; Korean/Chinese flat leaf chive (12 years going) cutting scapes early to pickle/stir fry to stop the spread throughout the garden and yard, Mints of a few varieties (in large pots to stop the spread), sage and kale....after 6 years or so, stopped the cycle. My palate got tired of the produce. Well done sir!

For rhubarb, I cut off the stalks instead of pulling and always removed the flowering stalk. I started with a fist sized plant that grew to 6 foot wide in 20 years, I never divided it, and it survived -30f winters.

Always pull them away, when you cut them, the leftover can start to rot and that can destroy the plant. When you have flower stalks in you rhubarb it means there is a shortage of fertilizer or water.

This is good content

I've been growing artichokes for about 16 years. Any one plant will last 5~6 years and then simply not come back (Phoenix), but they're not hard to re-seed. Give them their own bed (I use 24"x24"x12" above-ground boxes) because they do take over. Plant a few seeds near an active plant each year, and you will get generations of jungle.

This year we experimented with a few corn stalks, carolina reapers, bell peppers, banana peppers, cherry tomatoes, zuchini, collard greens, kale just to see we can do it. Next year we plan on making a garden with many options of fruits/veggies. I definitely want asparagus in it..

Chives seem to do very well in the same space as rosemary plants. I was having too much trouble keeping cockroaches from breeding in the garlic chives and ruining them before I discovered this, now there are 0 problems.

Garlic Chives in a pot on patio for 8 years. Moved them from yard because of spreading. Great plant for bees after they flower !! Thanks Jag, as always. Great information 👍

Walking onions are a good perennial. And some types of green onion that is perennial.

Tetragones are also greate (some call it australia. Spinach) They require no care, can grow beneath the shadow of a tree (mine are under a cherry tree) can resist light freeze up to -10c in the winter. The leaves are edibles and prepared and taste like spinach. Harvestable from end of Spring till fall. I harvest line once a week. The easiest green available.

Do you know if it's possible to grow artichoke in tropical areas? I heard it need a chill period to flower.

im going to give you all the PRO TIP on Asparagus and the absolute best way to plant trust me this it will yield well over 100 year old asparagus stands. dig a trench deeeeeep like 12" to 16" deep then place a 2 inch layer of sand in the bottom then lay in the Asparagus. then on top of that alternate layers of soil and sand each 2 inches thick until the trench is filled. the size and amount of asparagus you get from this method will blow your mind. youre very very welcome for me sharing family secrets. also same for raspberries from cuttings plant them deep.

I’d like to know what kind of harvest to expect from how many plants?

Can you please explain about zones what it is and what we should know about it thnx

I have a thyme plant in a planter that has been living for 8 years. It looks like a banzi tree. I live in zone 7.

Asparagus still has a life span of 20 to 30 years. Plus it requires a lot of space in a dedicated part of the garden... Worth it because they are abailabke when there isn t nothing much else and super costly otherwise.

There is Perenial celery called lovage, Korean celery, water celery hardy to zone 3 to 10 they meet edible green and stalks just like celery. Perenial tomatoes and peppers Everglades tomato is hardy to zone 8/9 but reseeds in cold climates. Perenial pepper capsicum flexosum is hardy to zone 7b/8 protected. Perenial beets sea beets grow edible green like Swiss chard. Perenial parsley japenese parsley hardy to zone 4/5 to 8. Cardoon is a cool Perenial artichoke that grows edible leaves hardy to zone 6/7 to 10. Perenial onions walking onions hardy to zone 2 to 10 and very easy to grow. There is cold hardy Perenial sweet potato native to the deserts near Utah and Colorado area. Also Perenial potatoes cold hardy true potatoes James wild potato and solanum ajunhuiri are quite cool might be hardy to zone 6/7 as Perenials protected.
