How can I order the seeds and backyard gardening/farming books. I live in South Andros in the Bahamas and very hard to buy fruits and veggies and even spices for cooking thank you for your help in this.

Thank you Kenny my broccoli also has white spots and holes in the leaves which makes me think I might have some kind of fungus, if that’s the case then I will try again next year.

If you’re growing the regular varieties of broccoli the edible florets will form in the center top portion of the plant. Just give the broccoli more time and hopefully the buds will form, they mature best during the spring and fall seasons. For the best results carrots need to be grown in good quality and loose soil. They should also be thinned to provide plenty of room to grow. And finally the carrots should be kept watered and fed to ensure rapid and uninterrupted growth.

Help, I don’t know how to harvest broccoli… is it from the bottom that you pull up like carrots, or from the top like peppers? If so, there is no vegetable just leaves, also my carrots never got bigger then three inches and they were in the dirt for four months. The seed packet said 60 days ready to harvest, so I don’t know what happened. I love on the east coast, middle part that is. Hope you cah advise as to possible solutions, Thanks.

[...] Oh, my mystery item was STRAWBERRIES! I ate one as soon as I got home and nothing but goodness filled the depths of my soul and tummy. I ended up with a few more heads of Little Gem Lettuces which I found is great in sandwiches, but not so great by themselves. The salad mix I’ll go through pretty quickly and the spigariello will need to be researched. I’m planning to use the yellow carrots in Petit Salé aux Lentilles which I’m planning on making in my new Staub Cocotte (more on that some other time). [...]
