Greg and Sheila — Thu, 11 Jun 2026 20:00:00 -0400

Hey Neighbor! June in the south means the summer heat is here, and your garden plan needs to shift to crops that thrive in it. We’re covering what you should be planting right now, including heat-loving staples like okra, sweet potatoes, squash, and more. We also talk about heat-tolerant greens and edible hibiscus that can handle the high temperatures when traditional greens cannot. A successful June garden is not just about vegetables. We highlight herbs like basil along with tropical spices such as ginger and turmeric that grow well in the heat. Flowers like sunflowers, zinnias, and marigolds are also key this time of year, not only for color but for attracting pollinators and beneficial insects that help control pests naturally.

We also walk through important garden chores to stay on track this month, including deep watering, monitoring for pests and disease, feeding your plants, cleaning up unused space, and more. Harvest tips are just as important, so we cover when and how to pick for the best flavor and continued production, from harvesting early in the morning to keeping okra cut and picking tomatoes at first blush.

If you want to keep your garden productive through the summer and set yourself up for a strong fall season, this is your June game plan!

Greg and Sheila — Thu, 14 May 2026 20:00:00 -0400

Hey Neighbor! Are you growing flowers in your garden? In this episode, we’re talking about why flowers are more than just something pretty to look at.

Greg and Sheila — Thu, 23 Apr 2026 20:00:00 -0400

Hey Neighbor! The garden is growing and so are the pests! In April, pest pressure starts building fast. Aphids, fire ants, squash bugs, and more are already targeting new growth, and catching them early is the key to staying in control. Tonight, we break down what pests to watch for right now and how to manage them using simple, effective methods like scouting, handpicking, proper watering, and targeted treatments like neem oil and more. We also cover crop-specific threats for tomatoes, squash, beans, corn, and greens so you know exactly what to look for in your garden.

Stay consistent, act early, and you will prevent small problems from turning into major infestations.
