When is it too late to start a vegetable garden
Is it too Late to Start My Vegetable Garden
imperfect gardener here what if you're
more imperfect than me and it's like
June 21st and you haven't planted your
garden yet and you're like ding you know
what I want to go ahead and plant a
garden in here in Michigan and it's like
wow it's a little late for a lot of
things to come up well you know what you
would be surprised if you go late to
your gardening place which I'm at right
now place me up here it's called
Bourdain's
vegetables they still have stuff no some
stuff is gone but a lot not and guess
what it's really marked down so it's
also fun if you already planted she like
you know why my peppers aren't doing
well I want some new or I didn't do this
kind of pepper here's a jalapeno pepper
okay normally 369 each all of them are
$0.99 now okay you can come and get
these vegetables 99 cents a piece and
some of them already have little peppers
started growing on them right here okay
so if I decide hey I want to try healthy
no pepper I can go ahead and grab some
of those up and I'm gonna get a good
good deal on them because they're all
marked down because you know pretty much
everybody else already planned their
garden already right so it's just an
idea to go in and check they've got
peppers lots of peppers
there's squash over there radishes which
I've never transplanted that's
interesting and they've got Tomatoes
there's some smaller Tomatoes here a lot
of the tomato plants are gonna be really
big these ones they have back here are
really just falling over cuz they
weren't meant to stay this long let me
show you they weren't going to leave
this this long in this pot you know if
they wanted it planted they haven't
staked it up or anything because they've
not sure frienemies gonna buy it at this
point it's just like okay well these are
I think they're included in the ones
that are $0.99 well yeah they are
because it says all the court ones in
the three quarter inch something they're
all $0.99 so you could grab a tomato
plant right now for 99 cents it's
already got some things coming off it I
don't need tomato plants I got tons of
them but some of these are bigger than
some of the ones I have planted right
now so wouldn't be a bad deal come in
and grab a few tomatoes over here
they've already got some this looks like
teenies or something growing out here
okay some kind of melon squash of some
kind they've got a lot of it 99 cents a
plant it's not a bad deal and then if
you want one that's bigger you know you
look around over here they've got this
big huge tomato plants it looks like
they did not sell enough of but they're
most of them are on sale right now for
less than they would normally charge but
these look how big they are five bucks
apiece isn't bad for a big huge tomato
so it's a thought if you haven't started
garden yet you still want to even though
it's mid-june almost the end of June
21st is a little more than mid-june you
can come and find stuff up here they got
some squash over there you can still
plant okay grab some of these plants
around sale go check out your local
nursery and see what they've got on sale
because this they've got these beautiful
potted back up a little so you can see
it beautiful potted tomato plants
they've already got this wire in him to
hold them up and everything normally
$24.99 it's on sale for $9.99 today $10
and it's already got tomatoes growing on
it this one's called better Bush they've
got a ton of these you could just come
in here at the last minute and pick this
up for less than half price then you got
yourself a little container tomato for
the patio or whatever what a great deal
these are all on sale I think I think
they're all $9 look at that $9.99 yeah
these are all I think these are all this
better Bush variety and then they still
got all these Tomatoes down here to the
Doral they're pretty much all on sale
gardener so I've been shopping here at
the sale stuff and I don't know I know
my garden is huge I already have enough
stuff in it but listen I don't have any
hot peppers so here is a jalapeno
Gigante whatever
that means big jalapeno pepper look is
there anyone growing a buck I just said
I'm an it to my garden for a buck what's
this one it's June 21st hey what you
gonna do you can add a couple of things
why not they're live they're growing
what's this
squash I didn't have any this butter
Bush squash for a buck
I'm taking it there's two of them in
there and then this one I saw that was a
different squash they didn't have I know
it wasn't squash it was musk melon this
is a must ambrosia you must know one I
think I did a musk melon so we could
find a corner somewhere to stick that in
and let it spread out into the grass or
something and then look I got just for
fun I only did one heirloom type this
year so I was like you know what they
got these heirlooms for a buck here's
one that's called Cherokee purple
heirloom it makes these purplish looking
Tomatoes why not try that one and then
one that's called black from Tulsa and
no sorry black from Tula it's not Tulsa
Arizona black from Tula and it's already
got a flower on it and another one's
called German red strawberry heirloom
tomato so I found three kind of heirloom
tomatoes and then I went ahead and
picked up this cuz it I don't know I
want more on the patio just for fun and
it's just a champion but I don't think I
did any champion this year so I'm
getting at so anyway I'm picking off
about three new heirloom ones and cut
thick that stemness man that's cool I
can't wait to see what these look like
Cherokee purple heirloom tomatoes so
anyway yeah that's the end of that but
that's what you can do come in at the
end of the season it's June 21st
everything's marked down all of these
plants ninety-nine cents each
and I could just add them to the garden
I've done so far if you haven't done a
garden yet you run in here you grab some
stuff look at these tomato plants stop
there as I was going through I couldn't
help myself they had some herbs on sale
this apparently is basil I've never
grown basil why not normally $5 on sale
for 99 cents basil sweet ocm basil we're
gonna see what happens with that it
smells like something that use in your
cooking let me smell yep apparently
supposed to use it on I don't
what something so as I learned how to
cook better foods using my vegetables
and learn how to eat more healthy I'm
gonna want some herbs so I hadn't
planted any bay his own for a buck I
bought me some and then I also saw you
know my onions hadn't done well I tried
to put that to my hands from seed the
big onions didn't go well this kind of
big ones so I went ahead and got me
there's some set of white onions there's
a ton in here I cried minded not even
plant them off but they were on sale for
half off of this set and then the yellow
ones they're on sale half off so I spent
a couple of bucks on each of those
actually which might be more than I
wanted to for onions but I don't I
wanted some onions and dinged if mine
went to grow from seed very well so I'm
going to throw these and these will for
sure grow I asked the boss here he says
oh yeah still not lady said he just put
his onions in last week it says mid to
late summer you can plant these so I
think what I'm going to do is I'm going
to plant half of them in us place where
they weren't growing while where I tried
to plant them before and then since it's
mid to late summer I'm gonna plant half
from now and then I'll after I pick some
I'll plant some more maybe I don't know
we'll see how it works out maybe I can
get some growing into the fall time you
have some onions for me and just because
you know vegetables are beautiful but
look at this I had to get me a little
plant it was on sale too nice hanging
plant put out front to make things
beautified so you got to give a little
time to the flowers you know vegetables
are great but a little time to the
flowers so I got out of there in the end
I spent a little more than I planned cuz
of this flower that was about 17 dollars
but that's on sale too it's not a bad
deal they had some for $9.99 but this
one was so much prettier so I woulda had
spent a little more for that but these
veggies I bought were very very cheap
and I'm gonna go and enjoy my home and
enjoy my garden and I really need to go
out there working it's probably almost
noon now and I could've been out working
for several hours already in the garden
instead I've been traveling around
having fun looking for deals so I can
plant more stuff in the space
half all right fun so again don't be
afraid to go to your local nursery it's
June 21st here and I found some more
plants at a wonderful deal really cheap
it's not too late to put a garden in get
out there and do that if you don't have
time you can do a container one or if
you don't have space you can do the
Tanner garden they've got those great
big container tomatoes in there that I
showed you and get out there and have
fun gardening
