July tour: What's growing now through fall?

Published 2024-07-20
It's nearly the end of July and the field is looking pretty young & green, which may be contrast to how many flower farms look, which are lush with blooms. I take off this month in order to maximize the potential for fall and I take along to show you what that looks like!

    For me, my sales are just starting to pick up as my dahlias start blooming more and more. August and September are consistently my best months due to the dahlias, which I am known for.

    I find the same for regular pincushions Scabiosa they at the earlier the better specially when it's warmer out.
  • @cbak1819
    Marigolds for cutting are absolutely awesome and they keep going and going. I had them in zone six a until the frost took them out in mid October.
  • @jtxzhao
    The airplane hanger looks good!
  • Just recently started watching your channel and I'm loving your videos. I'm in year 4 in zone 6A!😁 Great work! Great info!
  • nice! Never heard of siam tulips before- might be a good contender here where I live that gets super humid in the summer.
  • I'm pretty sure LAB is a replacement for root sheild. I know you're into some KNF, so that might be something you want to look into!
  • Great video! Really helpful. My question is about your country store display. Did you make it? The basket is so cute!
  • @cbak1819
    Last I checked, it was about $169 or $139 on Johnny's
  • How many dahlias are you growing, and do you have an expected number of stems from those plants?
  • I like hearing about your strategies. Ex. Grow fewer varieties of dahlias, then increase tuber volume from the high performing varieties. I didn't buy Rootshield for lizzies $$$😅. I have 3 varieties in my 4x8' raised bed and it's setup on drip to our city water. Our mountain/river runoff water is kinda yucky & i wondered if it would cause fungal issues. No problems so far.
  • @mariaki1065
    Great video! Which varieties of dahlias are you growing?
  • @cbak1819
    Hi Jess, thanks for the video. My Lantis are like 2 1/2 feet tall and they don't have a lot of blooms on them yet, but there are a few but they're really really short not like yours where they gotta tell them like that. Do you think they need some phosphorus? Keep up the good work .
  • I Love NJ! How hight is your Dahlia netting, And Why did you double it. Thanks for your answer ! i am a first year flower farmer in France in the Loire Vally

    I cannot figure out celosia. Mine is so stunted that a self-seeded dwarf variety has already outgrown them 😭 it blooms and I pinch but it doesn’t put on any height.
  • i lost some lisianthus... but dont want to buy root shield... it is about 200$ crazy... they are just starting to bud up. i lost 5 plants on 25.
