February Gardening in Zone 6b! It's COLD! Seed Starting & Lettuce, Peppers, Herbs, Blueberries

Tips, Tricks

1. wow - that's awesome that all of those plants survived the snow! Remind me again why you can't just take down the black walnut? If you have a wood stove it's great wood for burning! I'm going to go check out your blueberry video now. Ours are in containers because our clay soil has a high pH (around 7) and I haven't gotten around to preparing the site yet. As far as the lime tree - looks like a nutrient deficiency to me, maybe iron or nitrogen?
2. hey Donna I have a question,
   whenever I mark my garden with popsicle sticks the writing fades out the sticks turn dark and hard to read, what do you do?
   
   and how do you care for your gloves?
   thanks!
3. Why not proud of a black walnut tree? A lot of leafy green vegetables are not afraid of juglone. Plus you get a lot of walnut leaves that make your land more fertile automatically in the long run. All deciduous trees absorb tons of good minerals from deep underground and produce a lot of dead leaves to make your top soil more fertile. Let the leaves decompose naturally on the ground and you will end up with a good piece of fertile land. There is no need to compost anything; nature will work everything out for you.
4. thanks for the video enjoyed it very much
5. Nice blueberries bushes, they will come up real well after pruning. That lime tree is GORGEOUS! Wow, nice....keep at it, so cool to have a TREE indoors :) Nice sage too...that grows and keeps nicely over winter. Thanks for sharing!
6. Such a wonderful video! Thanks for sharing!
7. Thanks for the garden tour. You are so right, your south-facing garage door windows are perfect to overwinter your plants. Meyer lemon is in great condition.
8. What a beautiful garden you have! I hope everything turns out ok for you! Subscribed!
9. Wow, that's quite a bit of green outside for this time of year! Thanks for the look at what you have growing inside and out.
10. Great update Donna, you got a good amount still growing after the snow.
11. Thank you much. Send more.
12. Very nice looking lemon tree. I can't stop killing my fruit trees. Good deal having a south facing garage so some of your plants gets some sun,.
13. That Meyer lemon tree though.......WOW!
14. Great info on the blueberries. I had no idea about the waiting period for new side shoots. Enjoyed the snow!!
15. Wow! you got me with the blueberry plants! I did not know to wait 2 years on them. I will be planting a few this spring, and I am so glad you mentioned that! My fruit trees and bushes are going to be the first in, and I'm glad I won't make the mistake of "trimming" them when I plant them. Loved the Video, and so happy to learn the "workings" of blueberry bushes. Thank you so much, Sheila PS I have read a lot about them, but never this!!!
16. You know I Love this. So many of us make videos , but I feel letting the viewers know exactly what you are growing all over your garden as well as inside is always a must. Bonus footage inside the garage. Okay! I have to do one when I get everything I'm growing planted. Thanks so much as always.
17. Very beautiful! Good luck in the new season!
18. My garden needs a lot of TLC...I need to clean up! Looking great and can't for the season to start! :)
19. Thrilled to have your growing season round the corner ! There is indeed a lot to observe and learn ,👌👌 sometimes more than a how to video would provide.
20. I was wondering if you could tell me what type of things you do with all your wonderful herbs (lemongrass, echanecia)?
