It's August, It's HOT here in Texas! Is anything going on in the garden. Yes, there is still things going on in the garden. Even the Hot Peppers have slowed down in this extreme heat. The raised beds need prepared for the next growing season. Lots of compost and mulch has been added. Leave it to me, a certified gardening dork, to find my entertainment in a small section of the garden where I'm experimenting with propagating different plants by cuttings. This new setup has increased my level of success starting new plants by cuttings. I would be honored for you to ►LIKE, ►SHARE and ►COMMENT on this video. Subscribe for more fun videos.

Eat the sweet potato tender vine tips! They are yummy!

Where did you find the tree planting tubes? I've been looking for something similar

Great Video - I am trying to find a small tract of land ... I love what your doing. I started beekeeping last year and have started propagating native pollinator friendly shrubs and trees. I'm running out of room

everything you show is either dead or dieing.not much germination at all.poor quality video for gardening.it should be a what not to do video.

Could you please spell the name of the plant you planted. You said the leaves were good for digestion. Sounded like you said "kiya".

Great video! I am new to gardening and a new subscriber. Love that you share your thoughts about new things you're trying and experimenting! Still harvesting in zone 5 (peppers, radishes, greens, etc) and didn't know Swiss chard could be a perennial. I don't know if they make it through our harsh Winters, but since I do container gardening, I may take one inside and mulch the others. Thank you!

You have a really nice garden!

Just found your channel today. Great to see someone else in Texas. Can learn from your series. You were 100% right, Texas heat killed my tomatoes quickly!

My experience with Swiss Chard.... I would harvest by cutting it across at the bottom, about one to two inches from the bottom... shortly, I would have a lot more to harvest. It helped that I had four plants across the row. I would harvest about five feet down the row... while those were growing, I could harvest 'Up' the row. Thank you so much for the videos. I really love your videos.

Great ideas. I planted 2 coffee tree and wanted to see if I can propagate it and new I have a few coffee tree. Loved and Subbed. Great video

I want to start propagating plants myself, thanks for helpful tips.

The new shrub that you transplanted is something I've never heard of before I'll look forward to watching it's progress.

THUMBS UP, I have learned so much from your videos. I want to say thank you Blake for the time you take to make and share with everyone.

Garden looks good Blake I love sweet potatoes, new research suggests pine won't change soil phhere's a video done by Patrick and Steven https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_B8-1sVcfzE hope I added the link correctly.

Just curious but do you cover your pepper plants in the winter? I'm in East Texas and left mine last year, uncovered and of course they didn't make it, didn't think they would. It was just a test for me.

great propagation from cuttings. in s fl i had luck with sweet potatoes, ficus, crotons, cocoplum, and bananas, amaryllis. keep us posted on the grapes may be i can grow in the heat.

you can plant tomatoes and corn right next to each other one year I planted corn and tomatoes right up against each other and they did find the corn
and the tomatoes did excellent.

Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to the experiment results. God bless and take care.
