I’m not terribly keen on carrots especially store bought but I grew your Uzbek carrots and now I’m a big fan of carrots. Super yum yum 😋
i need help on this, do you know when is the time to harvest the white bitter gourd? like how do i know whether if is time to harvest it?
All about the snapdragons cmon <3
This is my first time trying to grow butterfly peas. Strange enough I direct sow them and got almost 100% germination. But they grew about 2 inches and stopped. They look healthy they just aren't growing. I live in North California zone 9b, I keep them watered, there's a trellis for them. I'm not sure what to do.
i want to go but am weary of going alone
A 75+ year old woman came in to buy 50lbs of cucumbers and a few pounds of fresh dill. She was hosting a pickle party! I've never wanted to be some where more than that pickle party!
I'm so glad your channel popped up in my feed (Subscribed!) We recently moved so I wasn't able to grow a garden this year 😢 I found a greenhouse a few miles from us and lucked out on some clearance plants but I would still like to grow some things myself. Thank you for this video! (PA by way of WV, zone 6)
I love these tomatoes, so good. 🍅
It's also possible that it never existed at all and this entire idea of tomatoes, as a whole, is but a conspiracy
Rober Cauliflower is awesome! I planted it last summer, and the same plants are still giving me off-shoots. Smaller, but just as good. I planted the Chard two years ago and the same plants are still growing. My goats thank you.
What grow zone are you in?
@@angiesheirlooms - 8B I also grow them in polytunnels, if that helps. Row covers could do the same thing though.
Cute montage. Now I need to order seeds.
Just placed my first RareSeeds in the dirt! I am stoked! I have grown many.... herbal flowers, I can't say I've ever been this excited to get sprouts and seedlings and the whole 9 yards! Currently, Marigold Orange Flame and Catnip have been sewn! Thank you, Natrona from Discord, for introducing me to yall!
💚👍👍
Eu sou do Brasil e gostaria de trabalhar com sementes baker creek. Existe algum tipo de contrato ou tenho que abrir uma franquia ou investir algum valor especifico ou apenas comprar as sementes no site e vender tranquilamente no Brasil?
❤❤❤😊
😁
✌️
That field of flowers is beautiful!
❤❤❤
oh WOW
why would it make me sick if I overdo it? is there's something in it that's toxic?
Thanks for the tips!
Iowa Zone 5a. The first year it seemed weird planting in November, but we got good results. This, our second year, the results were even better. That's to say, mostly good sized bulbs, about 2 inches or so in diameter. My wife wants to only plant cloves from bulbs with 6 cloves, since that's the ideal count for the Korean Red that we grow. Does it really matter? We have some large bulbs with fat cloves @ 7 or 8 per bulb. I would like to use them for planting.

Hi mine is dropping lower leaves. Like they don't grow back, just the top leaves. It is in the sun in a screen porch facing south. I thought it was pests, but I could not see any. I have been spraying it with neem oil solution. Do you think it just needs more shade?
Love this tomato!
Got my tickets already!!! But just an invoice tho, no scannable barcode…will the tickets be mailed or sent to my email later? Real question here.😮
Thanks for your question! We are planning to send printed tickets by mail. Looking forward to seeing you at the Expo!
You no longer sell Roselle. 😢 7:08 why did you discontinue it?
💚👍
Im worried its going to be too crowded this year because of so much advertising. Its never been advertised this much before
We understand your concerns, but the venue is spacious and we are planning for a big crowd. Come and join the fun if you're able.
I wish it were still in Petaluma
We enjoyed our time in Santa Rosa, too!
I can’t wait to be there with my friend
Awesome.
Cannot wait to go!!!
I got some of these this year from you all! So excited to see its fuzzy texture!
I honestly would love to start a career in something like this.
Nothing is stopping you.😊
Красота. Спасибо за интересное видео! Привет из России!)
Sir ihave black turmaric and blue turmaric around 30to40 kg.sir how can I sale? Thankyou sir
Cool concept. Keep up the good work!
You need to check "Sunflower Steve" work with sunflowers. He started with one sunflower plant that grew in his land. Ten years later he has different sunflower plants and he is starting to sell the seeds.
Oh yes! We know his work! Fabulous!
I can’t wait to buy these seeds!!
It will be at least 7 years.
It will take some time, yes, to grow out enough generations to stabilize the cross.
So how does this excessive amount of ray florets at the expense of disk florets in the capitulum affect pollinators? Are you essentially creating a “pretty” but useless plant, like all the horticultural rose varieties that waste space in parks and gardens? Pretty AND useful to pollinators is fine but otherwise…no thanks.
Where's your breeding project?
Hi there, we do all the breeding work on our farm in Mansfield, MO!
Hi and thanks so much for your question. Weston says: "Good question. That's why we are ruthlessly cutting out any plants that don't have the appearances we want. We leave the remaining plants standing, and we let the bees and insects do the cross-pollination between the plants that have a desirable phenotype."
Thanks for the comment. From Weston: "Yes, that's definitely something to consider. Pollination rates in doubles can be lower due to the concentration of petals on the flower face. We are already selling a couple fully double strains of sunflowers, and so our goal has been to create the exact same thing that we are already selling, except to offer it in a red color. But if this proves difficult, there is another workaround to this problem as well: when a sunflower plant only has a single double allele (when they are heterorozygous) they can produce a "semi-double" flower. These semi-double flowers are much more open to pollination and they have increased levels of seed set. When these semi-doubles are pollinated by other semi-doubles, they produce a beautiful segregating population of semi-doubles, singles, and full doubles. So, in a sense, we can use the fertile semi-doubles to keep regenerating a mix that includes amazing full-doubles as part of an array of flower forms."
New Heirloom? Isn’t that an oxymoron?
Maybe a little bit, but we commonly use the term to describe the new open-pollinated varieties we offer from open-pollinated breeders. "Old heirlooms," those that have been stewarded in families or communities for 50+ years, are also open pollinated and have stabilized genetics.

And it is also oxy-clean! 😂
@@RareSeedsBCdo you have more stories of other hybrids you are working on making stabilized for open pollination and seed saving? (PS: can you carry Roselle again?)
If you love sunflowers check out sunflower steve
💚👍
How do you prevent windblown contamination and bees spreading the wrong pollen about?
Yeah hasnt cross pollination already occurred in these plants? Thats gotta be tricky
@@mylesfalconer9183 There are exact protocols to follow which is why I'm asking. I've got seed from them for years and never once had an issue.
Beautiful...buy all my seeds from you. ❤
I have those " weeds" all over my yard😂 .. does the burdock turn to stick thorns, or do thorns grow near it ?
I love this plant for stir fries. 3rd year growin :]
Why would I care if it has transgenic contamination? What's wrong with that sounds like some dumb shit not liking it
