Garden Tour! - How Does Your Garden Grow?

remember say hi everyone so what are we doing today hey what are we doing okay we're stealing Rice Krispie treats and we're getting our garden soil but oh my hair's a mess why don't y'all tell me that why'd y'all let me talk for so long um anyways me and Ray are hanging out we're kind of waiting for Danielle to get back here um because she was looking into this certain soil that we got we wanted to get this stuff but they only had like six bags we needed like 30 something bags so we got this other planting mix but it doesn't say it's for for like vegetable gardens so that's kind of like making her a little concerned however and it's not organic that's organic over there um so she just wanted to make sure that some of the stuff that's in it was okay for the vegetables anyways how's everybody doing how's it going we're just hanging out trying to get this Garden done so we can get our vegetables down in there and then we can have some vegetables to eat this summer yeah we'll see we'll see how it goes first time gardener you want to say hi again and Bubba's Ray's here to help Israel's here to help can you say hi what's your favorite vegetable to eat what do you like to eat rice that you like rice yuck broccoli what'd you say hey what do you want to eat oh you like popsicles oh boy likes popsicles oh yeah popsicles let's get him you already have one you already have one you know you already have one but you already have what he's saying please you already have one you want something else what you want popsicle maybe you can have more popsicles one more popsicle okay one more okay let's keep someone decided they want to make their own popsicles which this is in glass which is a bad idea so then they spilled it all [Music] [Music] all right so dumped all these off um we'll probably go we'll probably fill these in a little later today or put this in a little later today Danielle's not feeling too good she's been going hard she built all these by herself uh we put the trellises on but that's what it's called but she's been very um non-stop over the last week or so this is kind of her project so we'll probably I'm gonna encourage her to go lay down because she said she wasn't feeling good so I'm gonna go see if she'll go do that then we'll come back out a little later and finish them up [Music] [Music] wow cool that's good high five we have an escapee hey oh where are you going making a break for it but do lab though well dinner's over there's our post dinner nighttime routine chasing rabbits and whatnot all right we're doing it here it comes we're doing the thing now the thing we said we would do what's going in there Danielle's already done one she had to go ahead and jump the gun [Music] [Music] thank you oh I got you this thanks I'm like it's hot already it is hurry I'm not doing great in the heat but that's the last I think what I'm planting is a tomato so I need that cage from the thing to put around this okay I didn't sucker this one to be completely honest I still don't quite understand what to look what is a sucker what do you do you break off the suckers and they can actually create new tomato plants oh wow but it just gives more energy to cook I know it makes it stronger yeah it might be too late we might already have too many I don't really know roll I got blood and dirt on me blood and sweat Blood Sweat and Tears I just need little tears it's dirt instead oh man that's a good country song too got blood and sweat just need a little tears oh no okay my beautiful baby beginner Garden hey excuse me bless you sir um is it done I guess I hopefully everything grows we need to get some water and water it and then it's supposed to rain every single day this week other than today what a lesson hopefully it doesn't rain all day because here's my concern okay if it rains like a lot or really heavy it could flood and basically wash out all the soil that we just bought that would be bad bad news that would suck that's a lot that's a hefty investment that was okay so we'll start on this side we have peppermint and spearmint and I this I've heard everybody says it will just like take over completely so I gave it its own little spot both mints I hope it does because the girls will love to pick it and make tea with it that was the whole like I thought it'd be really cool for them to have a little tea garden and then over here I broke the rules with spacing things but to be honest I'm not really sure how these are going to turn out so I thought I might as well put more in and if it looks like some are struggling I can always call them yeah yeah yeah call them rianca if I need to but we've got cantaloupe around the outside um that were a little bit further along these two cantaloupes that I started at the same time but it took a lot longer for them to come up so I just put two little ones in the middle just in case maybe these will fruit first those will fruit later so we'll just have this steady flow of cantaloupe a nasturtium in the middle a what a nasturtium what is that it's a Vining flower and isn't it pretty um but it'll like trap bugs and help keep pests away which is really cool and it also like gives nutrients back to the plant okay okay so these two skinny beds need water ASAP um there's cucumbers along the trellis on both sides it's a lot of cucumbers there's 18 which is on the plants and actually what's really funny is each one has like two seeds that have started normally I think you'd like pull one but I didn't so um so that could there really be like 32 cucumber plants which that's the one thing our kids will snack on like they will eat multiple entire cucumbers just a snack so I'm fine with that and then I have mini bell peppers I don't I think it's red yellow red on this side and then this side is yellow red yellow so I got three of each so those are like those mini sweet peppers so the kids can just pick those eat them pick the cucumbers the goal will be to Trellis the Cucumbers up and over and if that doesn't work then I might try mini pumpkins how cute would it be to have like little pumpkins hanging through this you know in the fall okay then this is my Z this one I really broke the rules in with the zucchini somebody said I should put two in this big bed and I said nay I started way too many broke the rules with the zucchini someone said I should probably only put two in here but these were started in little pots and left in the pots for a very long time so it's possible that their growth is stunted I did add like a special um bag of fertilizer to this it's chicken and cow compost the chicken compost will add a lot of nitrogen so I'm hoping that gives them a boost but I thought you know what these might not make it they might not make it big they might just be so I'm gonna just go ahead and put more because I started so many not knowing how much space that they can take up um and I don't want to waste all of them so we've got bikini zucchini zucchini zucchini zucchini zucchini and I do think some of them could be yellow squash because it was like a mix okay but I think most of them are zucchini and then down the middle green pepper red pepper green pepper so those are like the big bell peppers I had more red peppers but Israel took them out when they were on the porch these I had started up in my mini like little kids raised beds up on my porch and they just weren't thriving so I moved them out here and I hope to go through a lot better then over here this is spaghetti squash because if you've ever bought an organic spaghetti squash at the store it's like six dollars for one and that's absurd right John very absurd especially when we make like spaghetti squash bowls and we need like [Music] six to eight for our family so one of these plants should do I mean maybe two of them whatever we'll get a few meals of spaghetti squash and then this is a beefsteak tomato plant that my neighbor gave me I have a little tomato cage for it I have to bring down it's been living in a pot for months so I think it's really gonna love it's a little garment and then I'm supposed to be building a whole more of these if you notice we're not symmetrical here it's driving me nuts but we'll get there looks good babe is it cute I think it'll be cute when it grows if it grows
