Maybe I should have used Hilary duff come clean so

Maybe I should have used Hilary duff come clean song for this video just because it’s been raining all day for us here in Miami. There was a brief moment when it was just drizzling and it also happened to be when Olie was napping! You betcha I snuck out! I planted some lettuces and up planted our peppers. I have to really think about what and where I plant things this year. I only have 3 beds to really plant. Not sure where I’m going to put the 20 pepper plants I have going right now 🫠🫠🫠 #gardenerproblems #miamigardener #miamigardening #miamihomegarden #southfloridagardening #floridagardener #vegogarden #raisedbedgarden #fallplanting #mygarden #mygardenlife #growingfood

When I first got into gardening, I wanted to grow

When I first got into gardening, I wanted to grow everythingggg! I quickly learned the trendy veggies on my feed tasted mehh to us. But I think I needed to do that to figure out what we as a family love to eat and what we don’t care for. Daikon is a must have. The kids won’t eat them straight up. Turn daikons into lo bak goh/dim sum classic turnip cake and they’re gone in seconds. For me braised and caramelized with baby backribs over a a bed of freshly cooked rice. 🧑‍🍳 💋 Anyway they’re coming along in our backyard garden @vego_garden bed. I directed sowed these a couple weeks ago. They look like they’re taking off. I’m going to direct sow another batch today so we can have a continuous harvest for as long as we can. #winterradish #daikon #asianveggies #backyardgarden #raisedbedgarden #vegogarden #vegogardening #metalraisedbeds #miamigardening #backyardgardening🚜 #rootvegetables #rootveggies #winterveggies #wintervegetables

I never experienced a panic attack until I was wel

I never experienced a panic attack until I was well into my thirties. It felt like what a heart attack would feel like if I was having it. I remember the first time it happened Ruben rushed me to urgent care. The doctor did all the work. Of course I was fine. I followed up with a cardiologist and all that anyways. I remember waiting for the cardio, a nurse came in to do vitals. She asked me if I exercise regularly. I said I garden daily. She said, “oh that doesn’t count.” 😬💀 I’m better at recognizing when I’m about to have a panic attack now. I take coco’s advice to slow down, take a deep breath and relax. Can you believe a 4 y.o. learn all that and recognize when I needed it? Anyways the garden benefits in more ways than one. It is definitely cardio and good for the heart! Moving dirt is no joke. Rotating compost is a workout. But it’s so so good for the head. I don’t have time to do long sessions in the garden like I used to. I spent at most 30 min a day and that’s enough to keep the panic attacks away. #gardenismagic #gardentherapy #gardeningtherapy #gardenerforlife #homegardening #backyardgarden #metalraisedbeds #vegogarden #sustainabilityyourway #growingfood #gardenlover #gardenerdietitian #dirtlife #raisedbedgardener

I’m adding something new to my anti-rkn arsenal

I’m adding something new to my anti-rkn arsenal this season thanks to fellow gardener @thegardeninggambler. Arugula worm compost! Well not exactly. Instead of throwing arugula into the compost bin, I am burying them directly in the bed I know to be affected by it. Before doing that, I pull as much of the affected nematodes affected roots as possible. Then till the soil several times to expose the rkn to sunlight. Afterwards, organic matters and crab shell meal to feed the microbes that prey on rkn! #rootknotnematode #organicgardening #organicgardeners #raisedbedgarden #raisedgardenbeds #vegogarden #vegogardens #integratedpestmanagement #homegardening #growingfoods #organicallygrown #backyardgarden #metalraisedbeds #miamigardening #dietitiangardener #gardeninginthecity #southfloridaliving #southfloridagardener #zone10b #growingfoodyoulove

Scallions are easy to grow and are great additions

Scallions are easy to grow and are great additions to any kitchen garden. I planted ours from store bought ones and the current batch have been going strong for a couple seasons now.

Location: Plant scallions in a sunny or partial shade spot with well-drained soil.

Planting: Scallions can be grown from seeds, sets, or store-bought roots. Plant them about 1 inch deep and 1 inch apart.

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist since they prefer slightly damp conditions.

Fertilize: Use an all purpose organic fertilizer or compost at the time of planting and side-dress with compost during the growing season.

Thinning: For varieties that multiply by division, thin them to about 3 inches apart to give them space to grow.

Mulch: Use mulch to help retain moisture and suppress weeds.

Harvesting: Start harvesting when they are around 6-8 inches tall. Just cut them just above the soil level. They’ll continue to grow back.

Pests and Diseases: Keep an eye out for aphids and onion flies.

Companion Planting: Great company for carrots, tomatoes, or lettuce

Seasonal Timing: Depending on your grow zone, plant scallions in both the spring and fall. In our grow zone 10b Miami, they grow year round in our garden. #raisedbeds #raisedbedgarden #raisedgardenbeds #vegogarden #scallions #scallion #miamigardening #miamigardener
