Not positive, but I've heard that you should take the stalks off of the rhubarb to encourage leaf growth. Hope you get lots of berries!

I recommend Goumi Berries. They are Delicious... If you can get them before the deer do

That's awesome, I did almost he exact same things this year, apparently the huckleberries and gooseberries don't do well in our area, I think due to our soil.

Do you plant onion plants? Also, do you plant long day onions? This is my first year making sure I do both and my onions are looking great, mulching the onions is a huge help, same with garlic.

Also, what variety of potatoes did you grow? I hear varieties like Dakota Pearl can produce in a shorter season

Do you have dogs? If so I’ve heard that dogs can get very sick from chicken poop, just wondering if this has ever happened to you before because I want to know if it’s safe for my dog

Highly recommend haskcap berries. They are hardy to zone 3 I think and really don't care what the soil is like. Easy to propagate once you get them established too. Service berries are pretty easy shrub tree with a nice berry. They are one of the first things to flower here so good pollinator attracter. Walking onions do well in my zone 5 garden and give really early green onion and look wild once they start making the bulbules. Haven't tasted the root yet but it is supposed to be like shallots. Hardy kiwi and grapes are options too but you need good trellises for those.
Garden is looking good for a 1st year to be established, especially in spent soil. Everything will explode with growth once you get a few rains and some consistent heat. The difference between early July and end of July always amazes me.

Hey I’m your number one Florida fan!! haha 2 things…I grow a ton of elderberry, the Florida variety. Please know you can’t just eat elderberry, they are toxic. But Elderberry syrup is amazing!!! I make mine in the instapot with a recipe I found on Pinterest…elderberry loves chicken manure, and I’ll be even bigger next year!

Also, sweet potatoes are in the morning glory family (technically not really in the white potatoes family) but they are tropical. They grow like weeds here, most of the time. But maybe you’ll have a late frost this year…keep them in the ground as long as you can and harvest them before or just after your first frost.
