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!Have you joined the Hoss Gardening Club? – the EASY way to garden!

Hey Neighbor! It's that time of year when tomatoes are top of mind, and unfortunately, so is blossom end rot. In this episode, we take a deep dive into one of the most common tomato problems and clear up the confusion around what actually causes it. We debunk popular myths about calcium tablets, eggshells, and quick fixes, and explain why blossom end rot is usually not a true calcium deficiency. Instead, we focus on what really matters: consistent watering, healthy root systems, balanced nutrients, and proper soil pH. Learn how calcium moves through your plants, why it sometimes fails to reach developing fruit, and what you can do to prevent blossom end rot before it starts. If you want stronger plants, healthier tomatoes, and a more successful harvest this season, this is a must-watch for your garden.LIVE PLANTS: https://growhoss.com/collections/plants-bulbsHave you joined the Hoss Gardening Club? – the EASY way to garden!

Hey Neighbor! Tonight, we're sharing what we would do differently if we were starting a garden for the first time. This episode is all about simplifying, growing with intention, and creating a garden that fits your real life. We talk about why starting smaller often leads to better success, building garden beds before buying seeds, and focusing on crops you actually cook and eat. We also cover why skipping fussy crops early on helps build confidence and more. You'll learn some tips and tricks on how to manage your garden for success. Success is not measured by how much you harvest but by enjoying the process and wanting to do it again next season.FREE GARDEN PLANNING RESOURCES - https://shorturl.at/sjKw0CHECK OUT WHAT'S NEW AT HOSS! https://shorturl.at/kD0vWHave you joined the Hoss Gardening Club? – the EASY way to garden!

Hey Neighbor! Food is essential for survival—and in this episode, we dig into a serious question: could you make it through a food shortage? With rising grocery prices, ongoing supply-chain issues, and concerns around future crop production, being prepared matters more than ever. We break down what's happening behind the scenes—from increased wheat and corn costs to fertilizer and labor challenges—and why planning ahead with even a 3-month food strategy is a smart place to start.We also share current garden updates (multiplying onions, aspabroc, sweet magnolia peas, Detroit dark red beets, carrots, and spinach) and introduce a new standout variety: FanciPak Hybrid Pickling Cucumber F1, bred for high yields, strong disease resistance, and perfect pickling size in just 50 days. Finally, we cover practical ways to prepare: start a garden (even indoors), learn food preservation methods like canning, freezing, fermenting, and pickling, and consider small livestock like chickens. Preserving food helps reduce waste, save money, extend seasonal flavors, and build real self-reliance—skills that matter whether times are uncertain or simply expensive.

Explore Your Personality: https://PersonalityHacker.com Joel and Antonia explore how our cognitive "lenses" shape what we perceive and how those lenses can become distorted. Using the metaphor of smudged glasses, they dive into each of the four Jungian perceiving functions, examining how past trauma, addiction, projection, and overstimulation can cloud perception and disconnect us from reality.
