HOW TO GROW FROST RESISTANT VEGETABLES GARDEN TOUR #8 NEW YORK JUNGLE GARDEN 11/24/2010

butternuts are the best! but acorn is great too. good job!

[ledburnerss]

@mechanicalbu11 Wish I could grow acorn squash well, they attract squash vine borers very badly. They also attract cucumber beetles badly so they die from bacterial wilt from beetle bites. I only get minimal harvest. Only constant weekly spraying of malithion prevents it, which I refuse to do. Butternut has none of these problems so I get 100 pounds per 120 square feet and they keep great in the garage for 5 months at 45 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

Thank you so much for the kind comments. I put a load of time into recording the whole growing season 2010.

I hope you see them all by clicking on my name. This year I've got a good garden as well but struggling with lack of work and 85 year old parents. I truly believe organically grown Veggies and herbs help longevity.

Enjoy and be well.

Hi, I have really enjoyed your garden series, you got some massive harvests! You mentioned a fish compost on a few occasions but your compost pile looks like mostly garden waste. Would you mind sharing your secret? I live in CA and the last home I had was full of hard pan but I am going to be moving to a new place with really nice soil. I tired gardening at the last home with mixed results but I am really wanting to be successful in the new home. Thanks!

Stretching our harvesting season is money saved on grocery bills, so I take it very seriously. I kick snow off kale. As for my fish compost, it ends up 70% leaf mold (rotted fall tree leaves) 10% grass cuttings, 10% kitchen waists and 10% fish racks (fish heads bones, guts, all buried deep) and almost NO garden wastes that harbor diseases and pests. I put 2" to 3" inches on all my beds every year and till it in deep. My other magic is rock phosphate and jersey green sand. Good Luck
