Joey and Holly answer your garden questions
Q: When is a good start time for planting Peas,
A: Since peas are a cool weather crop, they can withstand some cold temperatures. The ideal temperature for growing peas is between 55 to 70 degrees F. However, the germinating seeds can withstand temperatures down to 28 degrees F, but seedlings and plants cannot tolerate cold temperatures down to 19 degrees F. and below.
Q Can I put a raised bed with liner on my rock patio?
Q: have red potatoes that have spudded and I've been saving to plant. When can i plant them? Zone five. I see i have onions growing that were left from last year growing already outside. J.w if it was safe to throw the tatters in? Please and thank you zone 5
Q Will white butterfly affect radishes? Ive heard yes and no. Im trying to decide if i need to cover them or not.
A: no that will not as they will take 30 days to grow they will be fine
Q.what should soil temp be to direct sow cucumbers?
OR can i direct sow colder and put a heat row cover over them?
A: direct sow when soil is not colder the 65 F You can plant under a cover low tunnel but before you plant you want the soil to be at least 65F before planting. If you plant before 60F the plants will not do well and be studded
Q: Can I grow a zucchini plant in a 12 inch pot?
Q:Last season I planted tomato plants in 15 and 20 gallon grow bags. They did extremely well. I used a mixture of 60% compost (Purple Cow) and 40% potting soil (Miracle Grow). My questions:
What do you recommend to rejuvenate the medium in the bags? Replace all of the soil with new compost and potting soil? If not, what amount/percentage should be replaced?
And...if you recommend replacing just part of the soil....what method should I use? Skim off the top of each bag or dump the bags out....mix in the new...and refill?
A:You can take off the top 25% of potting soil and then add compost. You dont have to mix it up. Then, at the time of planting, fertilize as you normally do.
Q:Hi...if a runner has daughter plants with established roots could you cut the cord and plant it..or does it still have to be attached to the mother plant?thanks...also what do you cover your strawberry patch with to protect in in winter? Thanks

In segment 4 Joey and Holly answer your garden questions
Q:i planted my onion seeds in potting mix. did i mess up? i saw on your video u used potting soil. will they turn out?
A Potting mix is used in container gardening. The best quality potting soils do not contain soil (dirt); they are called soil because we grow plants in the material.Potting or soil-less mix is actually a mixture of peat moss, pine bark and organic materials. ... Select potting mix when planting a container garden.
Q: what nite temp can i take my mulch off my garlic? its 23 at nite and 40 in day right now am from ND.
Q:
Hello... could you recommend reputable seed vendor? (I went to the a Seed site... and was informed that their site was not secure so, I exited) I'd like to order a variety of seeds... but, a secure site is a MUST. Thank you in advance for your reply.
Yes www.MIgardener.com
Q: That is very interesting about cinnamon & dampening off ! I know that the cheaper cinnamon you buy in most grocery stores is NOT real cinnamon & not good for you. Real cinnamon, I believe comes from Ceylon, etc. & is a lot more expensive. So ~ does it matter which one you use ? I have heard that the cheap stuff is only good for pest control in the garden.
A: The cheap cinnamon will work.
Q The deer decimated our veggie garden last summer. We would like to build a fence around it with a gate. (Something more aesthetically pleasing.) How high do we need to make it to feel like we are protected?
Deer can jump up to 8 feet high; however you dont necessarily need an 8 foot fence. You could build a 6 foot fence with slight slanting and this would throw them off.
Q. I planted peppers 2 wks ago. Only 4 came up. Should I throw the rest or give it more time?
A:Give them more time we planted ours 2 weeks ago also and about half have come up with a few more each day they can take up to 21 days keep the soil damp and the room they are in warm
Q My onions I started 8 days ago. Not coming up. On a heat blanket covered. .A:Warm area is key you have that they can take up to 14 days to sprout and then remove them from the heat
Should I take them off and put them under grow lights? Or just wait longer?
A: once they begin to sprout then you can put them under the grow light.
Q How to deal with slugs organically
Q can I use coffee grounds as mulch

In segment 2 Joey and Holly talk about 5 Rules of gardening.
1. Visit Your Garden Frequently
There’s an old adage that goes “The best thing for a garden is the shadow of the gardener,” meaning the gardeners who spend a lot of time in their gardens notice problems while their gardens are still small and manageable. Regular monitoring is how to detect pests and diseases before they get out of control, and what could be nicer than a daily stroll through your own little paradise?
2. Focus on preventing problems more than curing them. Proper preparation and appropriate choices favor plant vigor. Vigorous plants avoid most diseases and pests.
3. If problems occur, identify the pest, weed, or disease, before treating it. Ask Extension Master Gardeners, garden centers or go online to accurately identify your problem. Do not apply fertilizer or chemicals to a sick plant unless you know what ails it.
4.Start with a soil test, taken after you have applied organic amendments. Many organic matter amendments (compost, conditioners) have high nutrient levels and you may over-apply fertilizers or lime if you sample before adding the organic matter amendments. Low or high pH or fertility can stunt growth, burn roots, and stress plants.
5. Mulch to reduce weeds and maintain soil moisture, but don’t apply it thicker than 2 to 4 inches. Roots must breathe to stay healthy, so small root systems need less mulch. Mulch volcaoes are not good for trees, as they can hold water and smother roots.
6. Don’t fight a recurring problem – change something. If moss is growing in your lawn, you have a wet or shady area. Grow moss or ferns, fix the drainage problem, or cut down the tree if you want grass.
