The Benefits of Growing Your Own Vegetables and Fruits
Tumblr media
Growing your own vegetables and fruits can be a rewarding experience. It can be a great way to save money, eat healthier, and connect with nature. Here are some of the benefits of growing your own produce:
Save money: Growing your own vegetables and fruits can be a great way to save money on your food bill. You can grow your own produce at home, without having to worry about the cost of transportation, packaging, and store markup.
Eat healthier: Freshly grown vegetables and fruits are often more nutritious than store-bought produce. This is because they are picked ripe and immediately eaten. Store-bought produce, on the other hand, may be picked before it is ripe and then shipped long distances. This can lead to loss of nutrients.
Connect with nature: Growing your own vegetables and fruits can be a great way to connect with nature. It can be a relaxing and enjoyable experience to spend time outdoors, tending to your plants.
How to get started?
If you are interested in growing your own vegetables and fruits, there are a few things you need to do to get started. First, you need to choose the right plants for your climate and growing conditions. You can find information on plant selection at your local nursery or garden center.
Once you have chosen your plants, you need to prepare your garden bed. This involves tilling the soil and adding compost or other organic matter. You also need to choose the right location for your garden. Vegetables and fruits need full sun, so choose a spot that gets at least six hours of sunlight per day.
After you have prepared your garden bed, you can plant your seeds or seedlings. Be sure to water your plants regularly, especially during hot, dry weather. You may also need to fertilize your plants to help them grow healthy.
Tips for success
Here are a few tips to help you succeed in growing your own vegetables and fruits:Start small. If you are new to gardening, start with a few easy-to-grow vegetables, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, or lettuce. Do your research. Learn about the different types of vegetables and fruits that you want to grow. This will help you choose the right plants for your climate and growing conditions.
Be patient
It takes time and effort to grow a successful garden. Don't get discouraged if you don't see results overnight.
Growing your own vegetables and fruits can be a rewarding experience that can save you money, improve your health, and connect you with nature.

6 Fruits to Propagate from Cuttings
Growing fruit is amazing, and propagating fruit from cuttings makes it even better. It's free fruit!馃挄馃珢
Buying established fruit plants is great if you're looking to be able to harvest pretty quickly. But propagating fruit from cuttings is a cheap or even free way to clone fruits, and all you need is a healthy existing plant to cut from. Another benefit to cuttings is the ability to clone your favorite fruit varieties! Choose fruits suited for your climate and keep in mind that most cuttings will take 2-3 years or more to bear fruit.
Blueberry (Vaccinium spp.): Softwood propagation - cut twigs in late spring from the tip of existing canes. Hardwood propagation - cut canes during the midwinter dormant season. Root your blueberry cuttings in a low-pH growing medium and keep them moist before planting them in the ground the following spring.
Blackberry & Raspberry (Rubus spp.): Brambles are excellent to propagate from cuttings. Take your cuttings around late summer from the tip of a primocane (bright green, bendy cane that grew this year). Root in potting soil and they should be set to plant in the ground in about two months, plant before winter.
Currant (Ribes spp.): Cut foot long cuttings from one year old wood in the late winter. Plant 2/3 of your foot long stem in potting soil to root, keep moist and in the shade. Plant in the ground the following autumn.
Elderberry (Sambucus spp.): Take softwood cuttings in early summer from the tips of green, bendy shoots. Place in potting soil and keep moist so they can root. Plant outside after about three months.
Fig (Ficus spp.): Take 8 inch long cuttings in the early spring from branches that are 1/2inch thick. Root in potting soil and keep moist but not too wet. Store potted cuttings in a warm sunny window, greenhouse, cold frame, under a 2 liter bottle with the bottom cut off, or under a clear plastic bag to keep warm and humid. Plant outside in early summer once new growth has appeared.
Mulberry (Morus spp.): Take foot long cuttings from soft, bendy branches in the late winter. Root in growing medium. Store your potted cuttings in a warm sunny window, greenhouse, cold frame, under a 2 liter bottle with the bottom cut off, or under a clear plastic bag to keep warm and humid. Place the container outside in the sun once the weather gets warm AND your cuttings develop new leaves. Water daily. Fall of that same year, plant your cuttings outside. TIP: If you're cutting from wild mulberries, take several cuttings from different trees to help pollination and fruit set.

Strawberries!!!!
These are Chandler strawberries. A genius that was cultivated in Southern California (USA) for the warmer climates, because strawberries prefer cooler climates of the northern part of USA. Strawberries grow wild in Wisconsin were I'm from, but here in Texas, they burn quickly - as most non-native plants do.
The berries are not very big and are being eaten by birds and rabbits. I really don't mind. This is more of a nostalgia plant. Something to tether me to my roots back home.
These specific plants were in a plant tower for 2 years. But last autumn, they were beginning to look stressed. So, I made a knee-jerk reaction to put them into the ground. I quickly found a spot, added a compost mound and stuck them in last October. I also added straw and covered them with a tarp a few times when we had a hard frost forecasted.
Despite not having large berries, I can't but help love on he size off the leaves! The flowers have been beautiful too - the pollinators seemed to have love them. I'm hoping to get runners - I let them go to root and fingers crossed, I can double the size of the bed in the next year or two just with runners.
Here's to letting nature just be nature.

I got my sprouted plants repotted yesterday! I have a strawberry plant, many sugar pumpkins, peas, tomatoes, and garlic.
I'm looking at planting corn, cucumbers, carrots, and retrying beans next. I think I overwatered the last batch which is why I only have a few plants to show for it.
