You started talking about how long it takes for them to break dormancy but then you didn't finish which is the main thing I came to the video to find out. Great vid otherwise.

The Louisiana evergreen shallots i got from you last summer have multiplied at least six times since I planted them. I’m getting ready to dig them up and preserve them. I love them. They are very tasty!

I've always had trouble with onions. I believe it's because I'm in an intermediate zone. I've found that ALL onions zone type get to be about the size of a tennis ball, and quit growing. When you said that shallots are day neutral, I decided to give them a shot. Unfortunately I didn't get to buy any of yours, so I ordered some elsewhere. It ended up being the mixed box Organic Heirloom Gardens. I'm glad I did. I had the MOST AWESOME season ever! Some of those shallots got HUGE! I'm talking bigger than the onions I buy at the grocery store. From a comparison with the pics in their website, I think the bigger ones that I liked best were Nero and Lorent. Will definitely be planting them again.

You are just a big waste of my time, dude.

When will you be having those shallots for sale again?

Boy, I love taters, maters, and okray. Us dang southerners just are more chilled and laid back. Usually, we more friendly and less judgmental. 😊

Tater, tater, tater! 😂😂😂 You sound fine to me!

Spraying with compost fistfulls until water in the buckets is brown chocolate then covering all the leaves and stems and drenching the soil throughly 2-3 times a month would prevent diseases you wouldn’t even think of

I have some Egyptian Walking onions I purchased from you. They appear to be bunching like the ones you are showing. However, they haven't produced any flowering yet. Can I pull them, separate them, and replant them like you are doing?

We use synthetics in our field plots because they’re massive and we don’t have the compost to keep them healthy. We also plant a lot more than necessary in the field to account for losses. They are tilled every spring as well. We don’t flood them with synthetics mainly for the reason you mentioned. There is a good chance the plants miss the nutrients if a hard rain comes and we also don’t want to burn them with synthetics. We use organics around fruit trees and raised beds. My favorite thing about organic fertz is there is practically zero chance of over-fertilizing. Good to find another gardening channel that isn’t telling their viewers you have to use organic to have a good garden like most of the big name garden UA-camrs out there. There are pros and cons to both and both can be successful depending on your situation.

The person that made the original comment can’t even form a correct sentence. That makes him sound more stupid! Thanks LDF, great content!

The nice thing about shade cloth, if you have it set higher, when you need to pull weeds or do any work, you can do it in the shade. It makes a big difference. Then you don't need to mess with the shade cloth at all once it's in place.

Pro Tip: Don’t plant tomatoes deep. Instead, you should trench them with the top of your plant coming out of the ground at about a 45 degree angle. There is science behind this method and it has to do with soil temperature. When you plant tomatoes deep, you’re not going to get great root development below about 15 inches because the soil temps that deep aren’t warm enough. This is even more relevant the farther north you are growing. When you trench, your whole stem in that trench is within the top 15 inches and you will have better root development across the whole stem. Also, if you’re behind on getting stuff in the ground, just plant them normally. Both deep planting and trenching will slow the plants initial progress down until they get established, so if you’re already behind just plant your tomatoes normally.

I see why you use Johnny's. Hoss seed isn't all that great man. 2 years of trying. Poor germ both years. Done with it.

I mulch to keep the water in and to avoid the $400 water bills. 😮

I'm in Pennsylvania so our weather and soil are as many miles apart as our states are. Therefore I can't tell you what will work in Georgia. Having said that I mulch almost everything except my onions and lettuce especially in a Greenstalk tower. But I believe that mulch is more for my soil than for individual types of plants and it's beneficial for me to mulch my ma'ters. I've been watching some old "Hoss" videos lately and you look good now haven't aged lol. Hope things are cool with you & Hoss.

Then where would tater time go 😊

I prefer using grass clippings as mulch because they typically decompose by the time I need to prepare my garden beds for replanting. This eliminates the need to remove mulch before planting new crops, simplifying the bed preparation process and providing nutrients to the soil as they break down.

I never knew the onions multiply if we leave them.. you are so close to having your kids raised on TOTALLY ORGANIC produce, that has to feel good.. another thing, I can't believe Celeste ripened before your Brown Turkey? I'm in Milledgeville Georgia, and it hasn't rained here in JUNE?? Are we in a drought?? anyway.. don't forget to put the hose under the Brown Turkey?

My Louisiana Evergreen Shallots were amazing. It tastes amazing as green onions and spicy bulbs. They multiplied by about 5-7x. If you are like us no matter how many green onions you plant, you run out --- these are for you! I did not pull them up and divide them in the middle of winter/spring like you did (though I will probably do that next year). However, what I seem to have lacked in multiplying, I got some really nice-sized shallots. Some of them are as big as a small garlic bulb. I forget when I planted them (think late summer / early fall --- when I got them from you) and pulled them up first week of June (north AL zone 7b-8a). I could have waited longer to pull them up but was going out of town for a while and needed the space for some other summer veg. Some of the bigger garlic size ones I have been using for eating --- amazing in salsa, burgers, and hot dogs. The smaller ones I will replant once this heat wave is over and have a week of rain in the forecast. I think the key to these is to keep the water coming to them even in winter. I would almost drown them once a week with aquarium water ( I have had my fish for years and know they don't carry any diseases or parasites) --- so good warm, high nitrogen water with micro marine plants in it ---- I water all my green onions this way in the winter to keep them going. While many of the other green onion types got knocked way back by the ice/snow storm we have in January, these stayed pretty much perfect with only a little bit of burn back --- so they might do better than normal green onions in colder climates.

the top-down disease is almost always without a doubt "fusarium wilt." Once a stressed plant gets it you need to pull it up and make fried green maters. There is no remedy that I know of and they are done. some varieties are of course more resistant than others. You just have to determine which ones seem to do better in your area.

You run the risk of the taters sprouting new plants if left in the soil too long.

How would you compare Nirvana to Honey Select?

I like the onion tails just as much as the onion

Jonesing for you to dig those taters! 😂 it’s like opening presents 🎁

Trav what you think about Dwarf tomatoes? There are quite a few interesting ones!

I miss when he would say "heal" instead of "hill" 😢

Spud, one syllable. G'day from Australia.

Bunching Shallots looking great, what a result😁🇦🇺

Well, that's the game. Find strong seed & hope it acclimates. Taste is superb?, give 'em one more try. *Travis you have a wicked sense of humor that I luv. Glad you gave that elocutionist the what-for.

Are Baltic rose a replacement for a typical waxy red, or are they more like a baking potato?

The Louisiana Evergreen Shallots I bought from you are the best performing bunching onions I have grown. No joke. 🙂

These are indeed not an onion.

Wireworm got my Sarpo’s

My grandfather planted those Louisiana shallots ! That was 60 years ago. He sell them for 1.00 a pound dried ! They are so tasty ! There was a bunch an the table every night !

Are you sure the leaf curl isn’t aminopyralid poisoning? Had that happen to me and tomatoes looked just like that. Weird that it would only affect those couple plants, but just a thought

Maters, taters, beans, and corn Cows in the barn and the sheeps been shorn

I should have bought some of those shallots. I bought walking onions from you and they aren't walking yet. I planted them in the fall. How long does it take for them to start walking? I've never grown them before. I'm in central Florida, 9b. Thanks

Where do you get 1 lb of these seeds for $6?

Do they taste like onions? Are they sweet or vey pungent?

Travis, If I order some of the Louisiana Evergreen Shallots now, just leave them in a dry indoor area and plant in the fall. Correct? I missed out last year and they sold out. But as I understand it you want to plant them in the early fall. Also is it too soon to plant a 2nd crop of potatoes like Baltic Rose? I have some that are chitted already, but was not sure how they would handle GA summer heat Zone 8A, I can put them on my drip system since rain seems to be a rarity lately.

Y'all's can say it however y'all wunt too.

thank God you didn't start in on spuds

What zones do these work in?

Before you get ready to harvest buy a Super Benriner No. 95 Japanese Mandalin for cutting off the cob. It only takes about 5 passes on the comb. I can do about 100 ears in 15 to 30 minutes

Can the shallots stay in the ground when it freezes over the winter? In AR, usually get 1-2 good freezes.

I bought the Louisiana Evergreen Shallots last year and now I have them stashed here and there all over my garden, lol. Same with the Egyptian walking onions.

Its called electroculture, but youre not supposed to electrocute the plant😂😂😂 no wonder it grew worse😂😂😂

I’m looking forward to the Sarpo Mira harvest! I planted some Egyptian walking onion bulbils last week, I’m very excited. I want to grow them for large bulbs if I can! I know you can’t ship to Canada but how cold hardy are those multiplying onions?
