In this episode, Becky shows you how to grow a successful homesteading garden, including tomatoes, squash and flowers. She talks about fertilizer, pest control, and seeds.
@merloutre7 every little bit helps!! I encourage people to grow a few tomato plants in pots on a balcony. It doesn't have to start out all or nothing. Do what you can!!
Becky, I would like to see a show about recycling. I believe that part of being a homesteader is to take responsibility for going green. How do you go green and recycle on your homestead? I see you do recycle in gardening, but can you show us where else?
Horse manure is very good stuff, but a horse in not a ruminant, which means more weed seeds will make it thriugh compared with a cow. Becky has chickens, which means she could compost cement.
i like the producton grid ,organic .3rd year and it is the first time i had any thing to eat.More squash than i can give away, cooking beans every day and wating on the corn i am hooked for life and planning a 2 fold expansion fore the spring
Outstanding circular garden Becky ! I love it ! I could see being motivated and comfortable within the circle of the garden. Also, having the table in the centre gives you a place to set your tools, produce that you have harvested, etc. Love it !!
Hey! i really like your honesty about being a new gardener! its sooo good to see your enthusiasm too! You made it fun to watch..!Gardening Blessings! Melissa

I agree with keep it simple. Good advice! I've heard morning watering is better than evening if you ever have problems with fungus/blight.
