What you said about having a "green thumb" was very encouraging. I have always thought I could never have a garden because I have killed most house plants I have owned in the past. But one day I was watching Becky plant in her grow room and she said "There is no such thing as a "green thumb" you have to develop and learn the skill of planting." That was a huge Epiphany for me and that same week I went out and purchased a green stalk planter and I am so proud of all of the growth I was able to nurture in my green stalk.

Wheat berries can be grown as a tasty grass for indoor cats. I use my seed starting lights to get the seeds started. Once the wheat grass is about 3-4 inches, I give my cats access to the planter. Eventually the wheat grass will start to decline/die so I just start again for a fresh supply for the cats.

@@k.j.krimson2590 I ordered my seeds off Amazon from Palouse Brand. Walmart also sells them. Larger grocery stores might even carry them. What I actually use is the actual Wheat Berries (seeds) that are sold for people to grind their own wheat instead of what is sold as “cat grass seed” even though it is the same thing but at a much better price. It doesn’t matter if the Wheat Berries are winter, spring, hard, soft, red, white, etc. That will make sense when you search for Wheat Berries. I’d only buy 1-3 lbs at a time because you really don’t need that much for a pot of grass. Hope your guinea pig enjoys!

Becky, you should get yourself some outdoor trail cams and set them up around your garden just to see what critters are getting in to your garden beds.

Becky, I felt just like you about starting perennials until this year. I watched Garden Answer’s episode on winter sowing in milk jugs and it was a success. I grew several varieties of echinacea, yarrow, holly hocks, larkspur and planted from the milk jug directly to the gardens.

I noticed you do not have a trash can in your grow room. You could have it so that everything you put in a trash can in there could go into your compost. Hope that makes sense!😊 ❤

You need at least two tomatillo plants to get pollination. Glad Josh got you the new one. Good luck on the wheat and the replants.

The more you plant in a bed , reduces the nutrient intake for the plants that are in there , also in regards to chaos planting , remember that different plants/ flowers require different soils and different nutrients , throwing all different seeds in together might not be a good idea, because they won't be getting what they need .

In the fall I will have pumpkins that I use for outside decorating. Crazy! I don’t add dirt or fertilizer. They face the North and don’t see much sun. They just grow themselves. I did this once on a pile of old hay and got pumpkins that way too. Unintentionally of course. Zucchini I sow the seeds and just ignore them until it’s time to harvest. I love watching how others do their gardening. I’m doing more flowers this year and dedicate a flowerbed to chaos gardening. But I call it my butterfly & bee garden.

After it flowers, pegs form and need to go into the soil to form peanuts. Sometimes we even cover the pegs to help the plant. We did get a lot of rain and hope to get a good harvest this year🤞I noticed you grow a lot of flowers in your beds, so that's what I'm doing in my garden this year a big change for our garden.

This past fall, I planted wheat along one of my fences. I used it as greens for my chickens all winter and spring. It worked great! I live in zone 9, Tucson Arizona. I plan to do it again this coming fall. It was like a lawn. I just used scissors to keep it trimmed. I let a few of the plants go to seed. But it wasn’t enough to grind into wheat.

An insect netting spread over the bed will keep the birds out until the wheat germinates. The birds will still help with "thinning" later. ;)

Becky, I'm in your region at a lower elevation and still waiting to put out heat loving plants. After this cool, wet snap they will finally head outside full-time. Next year try waiting much longer to plant heat lovers and compare results.

Yes, soil temperatures need to be 70-75*. Otherwise, they stunt or become weak and just don't do as well.

Good Morning Becky!!

Hi Becky I came across a different way of getting sweet potato slips. Firstbyou shallow plant in compost the sweet potato. Once the leaves start to fill out you detach your slips and put them in water as you did. I imagine the rest is just as you do now. It just seemed that the slops were extremely healthy and abundant. Maybe one to try for next year. Lovely bouquet for your friend and it is special when you've grown them yourself. Another good plant for bouquets is alstromeria. Indian summer is just beautiful. This would be good in your landscaped garden and it comes back each year. Plus you can split it quite easily at the beginning of the season.💚

My husband always calls my garden an experiment. 😢. Yes I know he is somewhat right but…he doesn’t have to say so. I know I thank God that we don’t have to depend on my garden like they did their gardens 200 years ago! 🙏🙏🙏
